During breakfast, Mu Tongrui continued to mutter to herself, utterly confused about the whole situation.

Fu Lingye was never a morning person. “Don't talk while eating.”

Seeing that she missed the 'Fu Lingye' that called her pet names, he felt a strange sense of jealousy.

The worst kind of jealousy was the kind that you had no right to feel.

Being jealous of oneself would just be self-harm since there was no way of venting it or making it a competition.

Mu Tongrui was unhappy, but grudgingly obeyed.

Why is the two-faced person lecturing her now?

After breakfast, Mu Tongrui retreated back to her room to pack her things, but Fu Lingye stopped her. “What are you doing?”

“......”

Mu Tongrui chose to stay silent.

“Talk,” the man ordered, visibly getting impatient.

She bit her lip and spat, “Weren't you the one who told me to shut up?”

Since he forbade her from talking, then so be it!

Fu Lingye rarely got talked back at like this. He pulled her back and forced her into a chair. “Sit here. I'll pack.”

“......”

His tone wasn't friendly and his actions were rough, but Mu Tongrui felt much better all of a sudden.

Looking at that conceited man packing her things for her with a frown made her feel overwhelmed.
