"Tch, not a chance, Brother Lin is just fooling me. It's not too late to kiss him after he buys me one!" Xiong Xiaoxiao stuck out her little tongue.

"Hey, the little girl is getting clever, isn't she!"

"Hee hee, Sister Manlin told me that, she said you're a big wolf in sheep's clothing, a big wolf living in a sheep pen!"

"This girl, seems like I need to give her a lesson!" Lin Mu thought to himself.

"Is the food ready?" Lin Mu asked.

"Yes, Sister Yu Yi and I have basically finished everything!" Xiong Xiaoxiao nodded.

"Where's Wild Girl?"

"I just called her, she just got off work and is buying a cake!" Xiaoxiao said.

"Alright then, let's go inside!" Lin Mu waved his hand.

When Lin Mu entered the house, he saw the bed was full of dishes, a delicious aroma wafting towards him!

"Wow, it smells so good, who cooked the dishes? Hmm, I don't even need to guess, it must be Yu Yi!" Lin Mu answered his own question.

"Brother Lin, I made two of the dishes too, and you don't even praise me." Xiong Xiaoxiao pouted.

"Hehe, well, Xiaoxiao's cooking is not bad either!"

"Tch, Brother Lin obviously isn't sincere, I didn't even say which dishes I made and you said they're not bad, you're just trying to get by with me!"

"Uh... you little rascal!" Lin Mu was speechless.

Qi Manlin hadn't come back with the cake yet, so Lin Mu and the girls sat on the sofa chatting!

"Brother Lin, there's something I don't know if I should mention?" Xia Yuyi said.

"Just say it, what's there to hide?" Lin Mu replied.

"I have this vague feeling that Yang Litong has returned. Every time I go out these days, I feel like someone is following me, but I can't confirm it." Xia Yuyi said.

Lin Mu pondered for a while. Reasonably speaking, the three hall masters of the Heaven and Earth Society are all done for, so Yang Litong should have returned. If he hasn't, he really can keep his cool!

Regardless of whether someone is following Xia Yuyi or not, we must stay vigilant. After all, Yang Litong is in the shadows while Xia Yuyi is out in the open, and Yang Litong's targets are only Lin Mu and Xia Yuyi!

"Yu Yi, it's no big deal. If you don't have anything else going on these days, why not accompany Sister Xiaoxun to Xiangnan to work on a program, and have some fun too to unwind a bit!" Lin Mu suggested.

Xia Yuyi nodded, "That sounds good too. What about you, Brother Lin?"

"Me? Don't worry about me, it's not that easy to get to me!" Lin Mu laughed.

While they were chatting, Qi Manlin came in through the door with a cake in her hand, although she seemed to be in a hurry.

"What's wrong?" Lin Mu glanced at Qi Manlin and asked.

"Nothing, just felt like someone was tailing me on the way home." Qi Manlin said.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows slightly. If Xia Yuyi was just jumpy, that might explain it, but if Qi Manlin felt it too, then it's likely true!

"Can you be sure?" Lin Mu asked.

"Sort of, I always feel like someone is following me, but when I look back, there's nothing unusual. Maybe I'm just being paranoid!" Qi Manlin said.

Lin Mu pondered for a moment; this is no small matter, it's better to confirm it.

He quickly got in touch with the airline, but they still reported that there's no record of Yang Litong returning to Wancheng!

"Alright, Yang Litong hasn't come back, just stay cautious. Today is Xiaoxun's birthday, let's celebrate first!" Lin Mu smiled and said.

"Hee hee, happy birthday, Sister Xiaoxun!" Xiong Xiaoxiao laughed.

"Happy Birthday!"

"Happy Birthday!"

Both Lin Mu and Qi Manlin chimed in, and Zhou Xun's face was beaming with happiness.

"Come on, superstar, cut the cake and make a wish!" Lin Mu pulled Zhou Xun to the dining table.

Xiong Xiaoxiao turned off the lights in the living room and lit the candles on the cake!

Zhou Xun stood before the candles, closed her eyes, and made a silent wish in her heart before blowing out the candles. After making her wish, she turned on the lights, and then Xiong Xiaoxiao, Qi Manlin, and Xia Yuyi each presented their prepared gifts. Although the gifts weren't expensive, they were very thoughtful, and Zhou Xun gladly accepted all of them!

They cut the cake, had some, and then everyone started eating and drinking. Since it was Zhou Xun's birthday, none of the girls drank juice; they all switched to wine to celebrate this joyful day!

Lin Mu chatted and drank with the girls, drinking as much as they liked. They all had quite a bit, with Qi Manlin being the first to get drunk. Based on personality alone, Qi Manlin should have been the heaviest drinker, but it seems that one's tolerance isn't measured by personality. Surprisingly, the one who can drink the most is gentle Zhou Xun!

Qi Manlin was the first to wave off any more drinks, stood up, wobbled to the sofa, and fell asleep. Xiong Xiaoxiao and Xia Yuyi also stumbled their way to the bathroom before crashing on the bed to sleep!

Of course, what they drank was less than a third of Lin Mu's amount, but none of the girls had high alcohol tolerance, and Lin Mu was feeling a bit tipsy himself, in a state between drunk and sober!

"Superstar, I didn't think you could hold your drink so well." Lin Mu said, looking at Zhou Xun with a smile.

"No way, I'm actually feeling a bit dizzy now. If I drink more, I'll definitely end up like Manlin and the others!" Zhou Xun's face was flushed, looking very seductive, like a ripe apple, tempting anyone to take a bite.

"Superstar, you're heading to Xiangnan tomorrow, why not... tonight...?" Lin Mu hinted with a smile at Zhou Xun.

"Oh stop it, your mind is full of crazy ideas. Let's get Manlin and the girls to their rooms first, can't let them sleep here all night, can we?" Zhou Xun said.
