Stay away from other men

Knock, knock!

Liu Duoduo's heart sank as she stood outside her dormitory door, hoping for her roommate and friend, Yang Xinran, to open it. The door creaked open, revealing Xinran's surprised expression as she took in Liu Duoduo's gloomy state. "Did you get fired from your amazing job?" she gasped.

With a sniffle, Liu Duoduo nodded, allowing Xinran to pull her into the room. Curiosity filled Xinran's eyes as she silently urged Liu Duoduo to spill the beans.

"I fell in love with him, Xinran.."Liu Duoduo confessed, her voice filled with sadness. "It wasn't supposed to happen, but it did. And then we..." Her words trailed off, leaving Xinran wide-eyed and eager for more details.

"We slept together.."Yang Xinran completed Liu Duoduo's words her voice tinged with regret as she sighed. "It was a mistake, though. But I let it happen because I love him. And then the next morning, he probably gave you a check and sent you off..."

Liu Duoduo's mouth formed an "o" shape, astonished at how accurately Xinran had guessed what happened. Had her friend's guessing abilities surpassed the realm of comprehension?

Xinran chuckled, noticing Liu Duoduo's suspicious gaze. She always found her friend's suspicious expressions amusing.

"Things like this usually happens in movies, you know. You're not the only one who has experienced something like this.." Xinran reassured her, trying to offer comfort.

Liu Duoduo lips twitched a little bit, feeling the weight of exhaustion settle upon her she didn't refute her words. She sank onto the bed, barely able to feel her waist region down to her legs.

"..Xinran I'll have to trouble to get a pain relief ointment for me.."

With that, Liu Duoduo closed her eyes for a quick nap. Yang Xinran sighed, not wanting to see her friend in pain. Determined to help, she took some extra money from her savings and decided to buy a sumptuous meal for Liu Duoduo.

But before she left,she helped Liu Duoduo in keeping her suitcase and removing her shoes before quietly leaving the room.

There was a pharmacy located near the university which was way Yang Xinran didn't have to walk so much because whenever she needed something it was always close by. Yang Xinran swiftly made her way there to purchase the pain relief ointment. Afterwards, she headed to the Ming Yue diner to get Liu Duoduo's favorite cola chicken and chow mein. Whenever Liu Duoduo feeling down, she would always drown her sorrows in cola chicken.

Once she had bought everything, Yang Xinran leisurely strolled back to the dormitory. Just when she was about to enter, she was stopped by a cold voice.

"Halt! Are you Lin Duoduo's friend?"

Yang Xinran stopped and turned to see an exceedingly handsome man standing behind her. He looked at her with a cold gaze, filled with impatience.

"Yes, I am.."she replied, her eyes drawn to the bag in his hands.

"Here, give it to her... Don't tell her it's from me, just say you bought it...here's a cheque as well,to her buy whatever she likes."

Yang Xinran accepted the cheque and bag, her eyes widening as she saw the amount: three million euros. She gazed at the man standing before her, a strong intuition told her that he must be the one who had made Liu Duoduo cry.

"Are you Mu Yichen?" she asked cautiously.

"Yes.."

Yang Xinran clicked her tongue disapprovingly and walked away, leaving Mu Yichen alone in the corner.

While she took the cheque, she had made up her mind to tell Liu Duoduo everything and let her decide whether she wanted to accept the money or not. If she chose not to, they would not spend a penny of it.

Mu Yichen stood there, gazing at the dormitory for a long while before finally getting into his car. Butler Chen, noticing the desolate expression on his master's face, let out a sigh.

"Master, if you truly care for her, why did you let her go?" Butler Chen asked, unable to contain his curiosity.

Mu Yichen clenched his lips and stared at Butler Chen. "Because she's not safe yet, and neither am I. It's better to let her go before they discover she's my Mu Yichen's woman. I had to let her go.."

He had to!

Butler Chen understood the unspoken pain in his master's words and chose not to say anything more.

"I believe that you and the young miss will definitely meet again," Butler Chen reassured him.

A faint smile appeared on Mu Yichen's face as he closed his eyes, hoping that his little thing would remain his and his alone. He vowed to protect her from any man who dared to come close.

"Arrange for some men to be stationed at the school. If any boy tries to make advances on her break his leg and tell him she's already has a man and he's the most outstanding!"

"Sure thing, Master. I'll get Old Xu to station them in the university right now.."Mu Yichen nodded and once again gazed at the window. He took one last look at the dormitory, knowing he might not see his little thing's face for a while.

"Butler Chen, prepare the private jet. We're going back to China," Mu Yichen instructed. Butler Chen nodded,he felt the master would him to arrange the jet so he called in advance.

When Yang Xinran returned to their room, Lin Duoduo had already woken up and was scrolling through Weibo. She had taken a bath, washing away the aura of depression that had surrounded her.

The short time she had spent with the master was something she would cherish and treasure in her heart.

"I hope there's cola chicken in those bags..." Lin Duoduo dropped her phone, feeling terribly hungry. She hadn't eaten all morning, and it was almost noon.

"I saw him, Duoduo. He came to our dormitory," Yang Xinran said. Lin Duoduo pursed her lips, knowing that the "him" Yang Xinran was referring to was Mu Yichen.

"What did he want?" she asked, her thoughts becoming hazy again. It had only been a few hours, but she had already missed him.

"He said I should give you this and a cheque..." Yang Xinran replied. Liu Duoduo sniffled and took the bag and cheque. She opened the cheque and her eyes widened in surprise. She turned the cheque over and saw some words written there.

"Stay away from other men..you only belong to me..." Liu Duoduo chuckled and hugged the cheque, relishing the moment. She read the words on the cheque repeatedly until she felt a sense of satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Yang Xinran smiled and busied herself with arranging a meal for Duoduo. She couldn't help but be impressed by Mu Yichen's quick problem-solving skills. Wasn't Liu depressed a minute ago what exactly had he written in that cheque.

"Ah, Xinran, he loves me! He actually said he loves me..." Liu Duoduo sighed happily, her heart pounding with excitement. She collapsed onto the bed, feeling overjoyed.

"Haha... Can I take a look, Duoduo? Let me see what he wrote that's makes you so happy!"
