CHAPTER 784: CHAPTER 680: LOVING YOU, FROM THE FIRST GLANCE 21_3

Jian Dan nodded.

Mu Qing’s skull ring on her finger was abrupt and wicked, with elongated lines by the corners of her eyes, adding a mysterious allure to her already beautiful eyes.

Having received an answer, that charm intensified, "I never expected to have such a cute little neighbor. When you’re free, follow Zhao Linlin over to play, my house is always welcoming."

"Thank you."

They didn’t talk for long before Mu Qing had to go write a song, leaving Zhao Linlin to show Jian Dan around, who always thought her cousin was a bit wicked, weird, yet very charming.

But this... was just a bit too bizarre.

Zhao Linlin took her to the room, and she told Zhao Linlin about the bizarre aspects, to which Zhao Linlin responded, "I hadn’t noticed, but maybe it’s because I’ve been around my brother Mu Yuan too much, the siblings are very alike."

"What do you mean?"

Jian Dan truly didn’t understand.

Zhao Linlin, pulling her to sit on her bed, half-leaning on the headboard, said, "This story is a bit long, but Mu Qing has a twin brother named Mu Yuan. They are identical twins and look very similar; sometimes even our family can’t tell them apart, and they share very similar interests;

Mu Qing looks quite androgynous, and with a little dressing up, looks indistinguishable from Mu Yuan.

However, Mu Yuan is studying abroad, and Mu Qing has entered the industry, so distinguishing them hasn’t been an issue recently."

Jian Dan still felt it was weird.

Jian Dan mentioned her plans to meet friends over the weekend, asking Zhao Linlin if she was available because it was boring being at home and she might as well meet new friends.

Zhao Linlin agreed immediately, "Sure, sure, I’m really bored at home, you don’t know, I’m almost growing mold. If I had known you lived here, I would have come to play with you;"

Jian Dan rolled her eyes, "If I had known, I wouldn’t have met you."

Zhao Linlin didn’t mind, "I would have met you anyway, don’t worry, you can’t escape."

Jian Dan: "...This is really a tragedy."

The two went to the home theater room to watch movies; Mu Qing’s collection was quite rich, densely packed with sci-fi movies and numerous documentaries.

Jian Dan felt increasingly strange but didn’t think much of it until Lin’s mom called, asking Jian Dan to come back for dinner. Jian Dan thought about it and invited Mu Qing and Zhao Linlin, as Lin’s mom had prepared plenty.

At first, Mu Qing hesitated, but eventually didn’t refuse Jian Dan’s kindness, picking out a bottle of wine from home as a gift.

Jian Dan said it was unnecessary, but she insisted.

Wearing a hooded sweatshirt with the hood pulled over her head, Zhao Linlin, dragging Qin Jiu in the front, followed by Mu Qing step-by-step, looking at the cheerful figures of the two young girls, she smiled slightly.

Lin’s mom, seeing Jian Dan bring two guests, was surprised at first, then warmly welcomed them inside. After Mu Qing took her hood off, Lin’s mom’s eyes brightened, "You, you, you, aren’t you..."

"The drummer from H2O."

Lin’s mom nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that’s right, you actually live next to us? What a coincidence, my daughter really likes you, could you please give me an autograph?"

Mu Qing smiled, warm yet wicked, "There’s no problem with that."

Lin’s mom went to add more dishes; her hospitality was boundless. Her culinary skills were excellent, and when the three of them began to eat, satisfaction was written all over the faces of Mu Qing and Zhao Linlin. Jian Dan, smiling, said, "If you come over here in the future, you can always eat at our house since I mostly eat alone anyhow.

Lin’s mom doesn’t dine with me unless I insist."

Mu Qing laughed, "Her kind of caretaker has their own rules; it seems Lin’s mom is having a good life in your house."

Jian Dan frowned, "But I think eating together isn’t a big deal.

Tell me what you guys like to eat, and I’ll ask Lin’s mom to make some more. Tomorrow, Mu Qing, you can eat at home."

Mu Qing raised an eyebrow, "Do you and Zhao Linlin have plans tomorrow?"

Zhao Linlin, quick to respond, said immediately, "Of course, Jian Dan and I are going to meet friends. It’s none of your concern; you can just eat the food that Lin’s mom packs for you at home."

Mu Qing wasn’t upset, "That’s not a problem; that’s fine with me. Let Lin’s mom make me some sweet and sour ribs and braised fish, which I can bring over."

"Hey." Zhao Linlin, angered, "Even if you are my sister, I can’t stand it; you’re asking for too much, wanting this and that, why don’t you have Lin’s mom come make it for you?"

Mu Qing spread her hands, "If Jian Dan agrees, I’m fine with it, I can even pay Lin’s mom."

Zhao Linlin cursed, "Shameless."

Jian Dan smiled, "No way, you can make it yourself and take it away."
