Chapter 46: She was not lewd at all!

After Li Mu finished the basic settings and downloaded the necessary software, Lu Xiaoxi took over the computer.

She was somewhat unfamiliar with the usage, clicking on the software with the mouse, but it wouldn’t open, so she double-clicked, and occasionally the message [User Account Control] [Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?] would pop up.

She understood every word, but when combined, it formed sentences that she could not comprehend.

As for devices and hard drives, she had no idea, so she could only cast a pleading glance at someone beside her.

“You just need to click yes; otherwise, you won’t be able to get in.”

“Oh, oh.”

“By the way, the system’s firewall is very strong, so I didn’t install any security software for you. As long as you use it normally, there shouldn’t be any problems. Just don’t browse any unhealthy websites; otherwise, if you get a virus, it won’t be good.”

“Do you think girls look at these things like you boys do?!” Lu Xiaoxi pouted, her index and middle fingers forming a sword, poking straight at Li Mu’s abdomen.

Unexpectedly, Li Mu’s abdomen was so hard that he didn’t react much, but her fingers ended up hurting.

“Research shows that girls’ lewdness is six times that of boys.” Li Mu rebutted with reason.

“That’s other girls, not me!”

Lu Xiaoxi’s face turned red.

She had never looked at anything like that at all!

Li Mu didn’t say anything, stood up to relax his body, walked around the sofa twice, and took a piece of mooncake from the fridge. “Want to eat?”

“No.” Lu Xiaoxi only glanced at it, and upon seeing it was five-nut, she immediately lost interest; even if she was hungry, she didn’t want to eat five-nut.

“You don’t eat, but I want to eat fried mooncake tonight.”

“Ah?” It was Lu Xiaoxi’s first time hearing about fried mooncake as a dish, or rather a staple food. The mooncake itself was high in calories, and after being fried in oil, wouldn’t eating one lead to a face full of pimples?

“Do you think I look a bit pitiful?”

“…… What are you trying to express?”

“I kind of miss the meals you used to make.”

“I don’t cook at home; it’s all my mom who does.”

“I miss your mom’s cooking.”

“It seems like my dad is the one cooking these days.”

“I miss your dad’s cooking.”

“I think you just don’t want to eat Aunt Su’s food!”

Lu Xiaoxi’s beautiful brows curved, biting her lip to suppress a laugh, the joy on her face was hard to hide.

This guy said so much just to avoid eating fried mooncake, trying to find a way to eat at his own home.

The two families often hosted each other for meals.

Whenever her family hosted, Aunt Su would come to the kitchen to help them cook, while Li Mu and Li Changheng, who couldn’t cook, could only sit idly in the hall.

When Li Mu’s family hosted, she and her mom would also help Aunt Su cook, and her dad would occasionally lend a hand, while Li Mu and Li Changheng still had to sit idly in the hall.

In the end, only two people truly couldn’t cook.

Lu Xiaoxi didn’t know Su Wen’s true cooking skills, but seeing Li Mu like this, she had some idea; it was just that every meal was supported by her and her mom, so it wasn’t hard to eat.

“Shh, keep it down; if my mom comes back, it would be terrible.” Li Mu glanced nervously at the door, genuinely afraid his mom would coincidentally return.

His mom, Su Wen, could be called the timing hero.

Back in middle school, he played on his phone until late at night before taking a shower, forgetting to grab his clothes, and quietly came out in just his shorts. Just as he reached the door, his mom came out half-asleep…

It left him with a shadow.

“Right, why haven’t Aunt Su and Uncle Li come back yet? Should we call?”

“Okay, let me check.” Li Mu really took out his phone to call.

Fortunately, Su Wen answered the phone.

Li Mu asked her why they hadn’t returned, but Su Wen said they were at the seafood market.

“Okay.”

“As long as nothing happened, how do you want to proceed?”

“Um—whatever, as long as it’s not fried mooncake.”

“Do you know what kind of behavior this is?”

“Eating for free?” Li Mu thought for a moment.

“How can you still have the face to say that?”

Lu Xiaoxi’s mouth twitched; there was probably no one else in the world who could say eating for free so confidently!

“What relationship do we have that allows me to eat a bit?”

“What relationship do we have?”

“Many, many relationships: classmates, friends, neighbors, and now we also have the relationship of tenant.”

“……” Lu Xiaoxi didn’t hear the four words she wanted to hear, snorted coldly, ignored him, and turned back to continue studying her computer.

When Lu Xiaoxi encountered something she couldn’t do, she would refuse it face-to-face. In situations like this, where she was sulking and not speaking, there was a 98% chance she agreed, and a 0.2% chance she didn’t hear.

He, ah, understood Lu Xiaoxi the best.

Lu Xiaoxi opened a video software, wanting to find a recently popular pure love drama to watch.

Right, this account belongs to Li Mu, doesn’t it?

She wanted to see what kind of things this guy usually watched.

In front of Li Mu, she opened the viewing history and began to browse openly.

There were anime, game videos, anime edits, and quite a few novel tutorials, and occasionally a few cosplay videos.

She knew about cosplay; it was role-playing, mostly portraying characters from games or anime.

Lu Xiaoxi inexplicably clicked on one, and what came into view was a large expanse of snow white. The cosplayer in the video wore various outfits, and the video was also paired with a pink-purple filter, looking very charming.

Heh, men.

Li Mu happily sat down beside her, wanting to see what video she was watching.

At first glance, oh, these girls are pretty.

At second glance, oh, they look a bit familiar.

Soon, he couldn’t smile anymore.

“Uh, this is called a comic exhibition; it’s that kind of thing, you understand?”

Li Mu hurriedly explained, not knowing why he felt the need to explain.

In short, he got caught watching beautiful girl videos, that kind of guilty feeling when a hidden preference was exposed.

Not explaining felt like a disservice to himself.

It seemed he needed to be more careful when watching pretty girls in the future.

“Alright, alright, I know you’re a nerd.”

“What do you want to watch?” Li Mu used the topic-shifting technique, and once this method was employed, the topic ended.

“Just looking around.”

“What type do you want to watch?”

Li Mu shamelessly shifted his butt, squeezing Lu Xiaoxi over to one side, his hand hovering over the mouse.

Lu Xiaoxi was afraid Li Mu would touch her hand again, so she timidly pulled it back, and Li Mu naturally gained control of the computer.

There was barely a fist’s distance between them.

“Recently popular pure love dramas, about dating, where the male and female leads work together in a big city, buy a house, get married, and have children, but unfortunately, the female lead is diagnosed with cancer…”

“What a cliché drama; it must be bad, specifically made for girls like you.”

“Then why don’t you tell me what’s the best to watch?”

“Real men should watch hot-blooded sci-fi; I’ve watched this movie about human mechs battling alien monsters twice already.”

“……”

Is there a possibility?

She is a girl, right?
