Chapter 55 Morning Run Encounter

Mu Xiwan was unaware that as she ran with her head down, the purple aura she admired had quietly approached not far behind her.

Ye Moyan, who was jogging in the morning, initially did not notice another person jogging in the vast square. He was focused on adjusting his breathing and pace, immersed in his own rhythm.

However, due to his tall stature and long legs, even though he was jogging at a steady pace, he was faster than Mu Xiwan. When he was about to catch up with Mu Xiwan, Ye Moyan noticed her running ahead of him.

Ye Moyan looked at the somewhat familiar figure in front of him and couldn’t help but be moved. Wasn’t this the little Miss Mu Jingchen met last night? Ye Moyan slowed down his pace, steadily following behind Mu Xiwan. His gaze unconsciously fell on her figure.

After running for some time, Ye Moyan looked at the young girl in front of him with an admiring gaze.

This girl was impressive. Initially, he thought she was just showing off by running here, thinking she wouldn’t last long.

However, during the time he followed her, this girl could run steadily all along. Obviously, she also exercised regularly to achieve such results.

Lost in his thoughts, Ye Moyan unconsciously increased his speed. When Mu Xiwan sensed someone approaching her, she could guess who it was without looking.

With the person’s proximity, the spiritual energy around her increased. The abundant spiritual energy made her unconsciously activate her cultivation method, slowly absorbing it.

This spiritual energy was boundless, not to be wasted. Mu Xiwan felt that just by absorbing this spiritual energy for a while, she gained more than she would have in half an hour of meditation.

Unfortunately, the amount of spiritual energy she could store was limited. After her body was full of spiritual energy, she could only reluctantly stop practicing.

Ye Moyan, watching Mu Xiwan running with her head down, was about to say something when he realized that Mu Xiwan had veered off in a direction. Was she… going home?

Ye Moyan watched Mu Xiwan running towards the direction of the Mu family, and he couldn’t help but slow down. Standing there, watching Mu Xiwan slow down a few steps and then stop, he didn’t know how to describe his current feelings, as if there was a hint of… regret!

Ye Moyan didn’t know what he was regretting. Was it because he didn’t greet the girl earlier? Ye Moyan forced himself not to look at the girl’s back and started running again.

He came back this time because his grandfather had to undergo a check-up. He didn’t know what Mu family’s grandfather had said to his own grandparents. Yesterday afternoon, his grandmother called him and told him about his grandfather’s refusal to cooperate with the check-up.

Grandma Ye was also worried about Grandpa Ye, and she didn’t want to delay her grandson’s work. However, Grandpa Ye wouldn’t listen to anyone except his grandson. Grandma Ye had no choice but to call Ye Moyan.

So after finishing his morning run yesterday afternoon, he hurried back.

After Ye Moyan finished his morning run and returned to the Ye family, as soon as he entered, he saw Grandpa Ye playing with his birds in the yard. When Grandpa Ye heard the noise at the door, he smiled and said to Ye Moyan:

“You went for a morning run? Come here, I have something to tell you.”

Grandpa Ye glanced at the Mu family next door, then mysteriously grabbed Ye Moyan and walked into the house. After all, the wall was not soundproof, what if the old man from the Mu family heard them?

Ye Moyan followed his grandfather into the house somewhat helplessly. Ye Moyan had just finished his morning run, sweating all over, his clothes slightly damp, making him feel uncomfortable. At this moment, he really wanted to take a shower.

However, his grandfather was in high spirits at the moment, so Ye Moyan had to endure his discomfort, sat on the sofa in the living room, poured himself a glass of cold water, and was about to drink when he heard his grandfather’s voice.

“Moyan, your little fiancée has been found, did you know?”

As Ye Moyan, who had just taken a sip of water, heard his grandfather say this, the water almost choked him. He didn’t know why his grandfather suddenly brought up this matter and said somewhat helplessly:

“Grandpa, it’s a new era now, and what’s popular is free love!”

Grandpa Ye, seeing his grandson’s evasive attitude, widened his eyes and shouted at Ye Moyan.

“You’re trying to fool me, what free love! A while back, your mom asked you to go on a blind date, what did you say? Didn’t you tell your mom that you have a fiancée? Now that your fiancée has returned, what are you going to say?”

Ye Moyan touched his nose uncomfortably after hearing his grandfather’s words. His mom was really something, even telling this to the old man. When he told his mom about his fiancée, the little Miss Mu hadn’t been found yet!

Seeing that his grandson didn’t speak, Grandpa Ye began to persuade him:

“You haven’t seen the little Miss Mu. She’s really beautiful and very polite! She’s also a great student, the top scorer in the college entrance exam this year. This girl is smart, quick-witted, and well-mannered. I think you’re a perfect match!”

Grandpa Ye praised Mu Xiwan as if she was his own granddaughter. Lately, Grandpa Mu often boasted about his granddaughter to their group of old men. Now, Grandpa Ye was boasting to Ye Moyan, no less than the other old man.

Ye Moyan listened to his grandfather’s praise of Mu Xiwan, and the image of Mu Xiwan’s beautiful face uncontrollably appeared in his mind.

Yes, she was very beautiful. And Ye Moyan knew earlier than his grandfather that Mu Xiwan was the top scorer in the college entrance exam this year.

Grandpa Ye, seeing his grandson still silent, was even more annoyed:

“Anyway, you have a betrothal agreement with that little Miss Mu. I don’t care, what a great girl she is. If you don’t even like such an outstanding girl, tell me, are you going to be a bachelor for life?!”

Ye Moyan looked at his grandfather and said helplessly:

“Grandpa, she’s so young, she’s only in her teens!”
