Chapter 492: Give Me Ten Minutes

Shen Xi was tempted to slam the door in Su Muyan’s face the moment she laid eyes on him. Oh, if only she could swat him like a fly. Without saying a word, Shen Xi stared at him.

Standing before the masked young man, Su Muyan caringly asked with a warm smile, “Why weren’t you at the cafeteria tonight? Are you unwell?”

Shen Xi’s voice was cold. “No.”

“It’s great that you’re not.” Unfazed by Mr. Xixi’s distant attitude, Su Muyan still appeared concerned as he handed Mr. Xixi a gift basket. “These are some desserts made by my mom. Fresh from the oven. Have a taste, Mr. Xixi.”

“That’s okay. Thank you.” Shen Xi then shut the door with a wham.

Su Muyan was going to ask to enter but was taken back by the abrupt door slam. The door would have hit his face if his reflex was a tad bit slow.

The sudden turn of events drained the color of his complexion. The fury brewing inside him could be seen in his eyes even though he had anticipated being turned away before coming over.

Still, Su Muyan was furious and upset to be shut out. He had never been given the attitude when he paid anyone a visit in person.

However, there was nothing he could do about it. Since he was the one who wanted to bootlick and get along with Mr. Xixi, he had to put aside his feelings and put up with it no matter what.

Su Muyan got a grip of himself before lifting his knuckle once more to knock on the door. He tried his best to convince himself that this was Mr. Xixi’s character and that the latter had nothing personal against him.

Meanwhile, Gu Yang and Xia Mi arrived at the scene. With Su Muyan around, they knew what was up. No one – both trainees and mentors – was able to sit tight after finding out Mr. Yun Xiao was, in fact, Mr. Xixi.

“You’re here for Mr. Xixi too, Muyan.” Gu Yang was first to greet him.

“You guys as well.” Su Muyan grinned and waved the gift basket in his hand. “My mom made some dessert. There’s more in my room. I was just about to hand out one each.”

“I have to try Ms. Li’s dessert.” Xia Mi walked up and gestured for him to knock on the door.

“Muyan, please thank Ms. Li for us,” Gu Yang politely replied.

Su Muyan had just gone through the rejection. Under the watchful eye of Gu Yang and Xia Mi, he gently knocked on the door once more.

This time, no one opened or answered the door.

“Are you there, Mr. Xixi?” Xia Mi went over to knock and stuck her face to the door as she cried.

Yet, there was still no answer.

Xia Mi lamented, “Mr. Xixi isn’t around.”

Gu Yang looked disappointed. “I wonder if Mr. Xixi will be attending tonight’s practice?”

Come to think of it, Gu Yang found it weird that he never asked for Mr. Xixi’s number or WeChat contact even though they had been working together for the past few days.

“Doesn’t the production crew have Mr. Xixi’s schedule?” Su Muyan looked at Gu Yang. Only Su Muyan knew that Mr. Xixi was still in his room but refused to open the door for them.

With his rage subsiding, Su Muyan was in a better mood. Mr. Xixi was not shunning him or out to get him. Su Muyan was at peace knowing this was how Mr. Xixi was toward everyone.

“No.” Gu Yang regrettably shook his head.

Mr. Xixi’s itinerary was different from the rest of them. They were mentors attached to the show while Mr. Xixi was not. Mr. Xixi was the only one who had a say when he would come to the show, not the production team.

Meanwhile.

In her quarters, Shen Xi was cozying up on the sofa as she replied to Li Yuan’s message. [Shen Xi: Give me ten minutes. Someone’s at my door.]

Su Muyan’s face made her sick to the stomach, but she had nothing against Xia Mi and Gu Yang. However, they were just acquaintances too. They were all here for the same thing.

She could bet her money that no one would come looking for her if she was still Yun Xiao and not Xixi. People, especially in the entertainment world, were pretty realistic.
