Chapter 382 New Year’s Eve Dinner

Chapter 382 New Year's Eve Dinner

Since it was close to dinner time when Mu Xiaoyu and Bai Luo came down, and although the indoor heating was sufficient, the food would still get cold, and some dishes would change in taste when they got cold. So the group didn't say anything more and went to the dining room to eat.

Song Yin had been to Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu's house before, but this was the first time she had eaten a meal cooked by Li Chenxu. Before coming, she had overheard Mu Xiaoyu secretly saying that many of the dishes that day were made by Li Chenxu himself, and she simply couldn't believe it.

In Song Yin's and the others' eyes, Li Chenxu was the typical pampered young master who never lifted a finger to do housework. Having enjoyed a life of luxury since childhood, how could he possibly know how to cook?

But she also knew that Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't lie to her about something like this. The only possibility was that the food was really made by Li Chenxu.

Looking at the table laden with delicious-looking food, Song Yin was filled with envy. She couldn't help but tug at Mu Xiaoyu's arm, saying with a look of pure envy, "I'm so envious! Li Chenxu is so good to you. He's a pampered young master who's been spoiled since childhood, yet he's willing to do all this for you. And look at you, what can you do besides paint?"

Whenever Mu Xiaoyu was mentioned, Song Yin's face would be full of disgust. As the two spent more time together and their relationship grew stronger, Song Yin completely revealed her true nature in front of Mu Xiaoyu, holding nothing back when criticizing him.

Fortunately, Mu Xiaoyu was basically used to Song Yin's complaints. Now, when she heard Song Yin's words, she not only didn't get angry, but was even a little happy.

She and Li Chenxu are husband and wife. When Song Yin praises Li Chenxu like this, isn't it the same as praising herself?

With no outsiders around, Mu Xiaoyu's joy was clearly visible on her face. Song Yin and Bai Luo, who were standing nearby, both noticed. Bai Luo, even when she was lively in the past, wouldn't say anything like Song Yin.

Song Yin, who is about the same age as Mu Xiaoyu, is not only unmarried but also still single. Seeing Mu Xiaoyu laughing so happily, she couldn't help but say, "You're laughing so happily."

As soon as Song Yin said this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately became much more composed. She covered her mouth and coughed lightly, then chuckled twice at Song Yin. Afterward, she took Bai Luo's hand and shook it at Song Yin, saying, "I couldn't control myself either. Don't worry, even though I'm married, you still have Luo Luo with you."

"Don't you even know how many years older I am than Luo Luo?"

Song Yin rolled her eyes at Mu Xiaoyu, and as she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at the man sitting there, and finally at Li Chenxu, and couldn't help but sigh, "To be honest, your man is really outstanding. In the huge entertainment industry, I can't find many male stars as manly as her. But Luo Luo's older brother is also good, completely different from your man."

Song Yin said this completely unconsciously. After all, in many people's eyes, Bai Ye and Li Chenxu are both extremely outstanding men, so it's normal for Song Yin to mention Bai Ye now.

But now that such a thing has happened, and Song Yin mentions Bai Ye at this critical juncture, Bai Luo's smile immediately freezes at the corner of her mouth, and a faint trace of panic and fear flashes in her eyes.

However, at that moment, Mu Xiaoyu calmly took Bai Luo's hand and said to Song Yin, "Bai Ye is nowhere near as good as my man. But even if Bai Ye is very good, you and Bai Ye are not suitable. You are more suited to a gentle man."

Upon hearing this, Song Yin pursed her lips. In truth, even she herself didn't know who she was right for. Fortunately, her current focus wasn't on romance. After all, there were plenty of good men out there, and she wasn't lacking in herself. There was no need for her to be so desperate for anyone.

With that thought, Song Yin felt much more at ease. She looked at Bai Luo and Mu Xiaoyu, about to speak, but then her gaze suddenly fell on their clasped hands.

"What are you two doing? You're being so lovey-dovey. Could it be that you two were up to something while I was away?"

Song Yin was truly astonished by the actions of Mu Xiaoyu and Bai Luo. The three of them had always had a good relationship, but even before, Mu Xiaoyu and Bai Luo would never act like this, holding hands even at home. It was really too strange.

Song Yin's voice wasn't quiet, and as soon as she spoke, everyone turned to look at the two of them. Especially Li Chenxu, who had been talking to his subordinates, his deep eyes were now fixed on Mu Xiaoyu and Bai Luo's clasped hands.

Feeling Li Chenxu's scorching gaze, Mu Xiaoyu hurriedly let go of Bai Luo and explained, "It's Luo Luo's first time spending the New Year away from home, she's a little unaccustomed to it. I was just trying to soothe her. But you, you've become more and more of a fuss after going out for a while."

Song Yin was not satisfied with Mu Xiaoyu's answer at all, but Mu Xiaoyu's words didn't seem to be wrong. So in the end, she didn't say anything more, just hummed twice, and then sat down next to Mu Xiaoyu.

The food prepared by Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu's mother was almost professional-level. In addition to Mu Xiaoyu's mother and Li Chenxu, the chef that Li Chenxu specially hired from the hotel was also involved in preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, making this New Year's Eve dinner extremely sumptuous.

The group was a little hungry, so they sat down and didn't rush to talk. They ate something first to fill their stomachs before starting to speak.

Song Yin gained a lot from her trip abroad. The filming location was not a bustling city, but a small town. Apart from the better environment, it was nowhere near as good as overseas. In fact, due to the poor security measures abroad, the crew almost got into danger several times.

Previously, fearing that Mu Xiaoyu would worry, Song Yin hadn't told her anything. Now that her filming abroad was basically finished and she wouldn't be going out again after returning, Song Yin had no more reservations and told her everything that had happened abroad.

At first, Mu Xiaoyu just listened to it as some interesting stories, but after hearing about the dangers Song Yin had encountered, her expression became more and more serious.

Why didn't you tell me these things on the phone before?

"I'm just afraid of making you worry, and besides, you already have enough on your plate."
