I Am Her Secret Beauty and Strong Alpha (GL) - Chapter 12

That person called Mu Xi.

Not some housekeeper Mu Xi, but the one studying military strategy at A University. She was the same age as Nan Xi, came from a humble background, but was always confident and composed, never showing fear or awkwardness.

Nan Xi remembered the first time she saw her. It was when the chemistry department needed volunteers to help move lab equipment, and Mu Xi joined the activity.

Later, Nan Xi asked her why she was interested in chemistry.

Mu Xi replied, “I don’t know. I just saw a really beautiful girl in the chemistry department, and somehow ended up using my free time from part-time jobs to sign up, even though it wasn’t paid.”

But when Nan Xi first met her, she didn’t sense any hidden motives.

Maybe Mu Xi was just good at strategy. Or maybe she was naturally calm and could easily hide her thoughts.

Mu Xi had simply reached out her hand and said cheerfully, “Hi, I’m Mu Xi.”

Nan Xi glanced at the hand in front of her, but didn’t shake it right away.

She admitted—she wasn’t great with strangers or unexpected kindness.

But Mu Xi didn’t look embarrassed at all.

She just naturally pulled her hand back. Her black hair hung behind her, her figure was tall and slim, and she slightly lifted her elegant chin:

“Are these the things we need to move?”

In front of her were the supplies Nan Xi was in charge of—lots of lab materials in a big box.

“Yes, but not just that,” Nan Xi replied coldly, but with some strange emotion in her heart. “Also me.”

It was a very lame joke. Mu Xi looked at her in surprise, probably not expecting this cold-looking rich girl to make a joke like that.

When she saw Nan Xi blushing from embarrassment, Mu Xi smiled and covered her mouth lightly.

“No problem. That’s easy.”

Then she bent down and gently lifted Nan Xi by the knees.

Nan Xi sat securely in her arms, lifted off the ground.

Mu Xi’s arms were strong.

But being so close to someone she had just met and barely talked to made Nan Xi feel awkward.

Looking down at the top of Mu Xi’s head, Nan Xi lowered her voice: “I was just kidding. Put me down.”

Mu Xi didn’t push it. She gently put Nan Xi down, her eyes full of amusement.

Nan Xi felt very embarrassed. She didn’t know why she said something so bold—it wasn’t like her. And Mu Xi had actually gone along with it.

She stood still, didn’t speak, her cheeks burning.

“Let’s go,” Mu Xi finally said, breaking the silence. She bent down again, but this time picked up Nan Xi’s box. “Your lab is in that building? Let’s go together.”
