Mated at First Sight

Chapter 148 - 148 147

?Chapter 148: 147 Chapter 148: 147 Oh no! I spoke too quickly!

As expected, the gaze of Jing Chen fell on Wu Ya who was currently wearing a look of horror.

However.

“You say I’m old?” You’re focusing on the wrong thing, Jing Chen.

I must say, Jing Chen’s first reaction was quite interesting. After all, Mu Lin is at least seven or eight years younger than him, and sure enough, Jing Chen unintentionally became concerned about it, while some people unintentionally walked right into the line of fire.

Compared with those surrounding Mu Lin, Jing Chen felt that he was indeed… a little older.

Upon hearing Jing Chen’s words, Xigua and the others couldn’t help but find it both funny and ridiculous. Giving Wu Ya a cautionary glance, signaling him to shut up, he then looked at Jing Chen and said, “Boss, that’s not what Wu Ya meant. What he said was just a respectful title that was popular on the internet for some time.” He really wasn’t calling you old.

Sure enough, whenever it comes to Mu Lin, or anything even slightly related to Mu Lin, their wise and mighty boss’ brain doesn’t seem to function properly, he becomes a completely different person, with no filter left.

Of course, this is undoubtedly a great phenomenon.

After giving a cold glance at Wu Ya, Jing Chen turned his attention back to Xigua, waiting for him to continue.

“Boss, in fact, what you’re experiencing is really a very straightforward matter.” Xigua began to speak with great authority, even though he was really a novice, “Now I have a few questions to ask you, Boss, you have to answer me honestly.”

Jing Chen hesitated for a moment before nodding.

“Boss, do you often want to see Doctor Mu? As in all the time?”

He was momentarily taken aback, then nodded, without hesitation.

“Do you wish you could keep Doctor Mu by your side all the time? Wherever you go?” He asked again.

Jing Chen looked down at his waist in confusion, then nodded his head.

Yes, he would love to have Mu Lin by his side wherever he goes. After seeing her today, this desire grew even stronger. Of course, he would never restrain her.

Xigua was “….”

“Boss, do you sometimes sneak a peak at Doctor Mu when she doesn’t know?” Xigua asked straightforwardly, although Jing Chen was even more straightforward, shaking his head without hesitation, “I just look at her directly.”

Xigua choked and everyone else was knocked out.

Cough, Cough…Their boss is a worthy crush, he admires her so openly.

“Same thing.” Xigua cleared his throat and continued: “Last question! Boss, do you really, really, really dislike the presence of other males around Doctor Mu, even your own younger brother, including… the eagle.” They all knew about Jing Youlan’s good relationship with Mu Lin. Plus, the eagle is a male animal.

After a pause, he finally nodded, “What if I do?”

What if! Xigua wanted to cry; After all this, Boss, you still want me to spell it out for you?

Steadying his mind, Xigua looked seriously at Jing Chen, “Ahem, when one person behaves out of character in presence of another, combined with all the previous questions, the conclusion I came to is…”

“Boss, you’re in love. You have feelings for Doctor Mu.” Or, more accurately, Jing Chen… was in love with Mu Lin.

Xigua’s words struck Jing Chen like a punch, causing him to freeze completely. Yet slowly, it was as if a beam of light flashed across his mind, gluing together all the things he hadn’t been able to figure out, into the beautiful, teasing smile of Mu Lin.

So this is… affection?
