Chapter 160 Rest assured?
"Reason?" Yuzhu's voice was devoid of any emotion.
Lily looked at Yuzhu and answered quite frankly:
"Since Mr. Arthur is here, I want to be closer to him, so I'd like to move in."
The moment the words left his mouth, the air in the entryway seemed to freeze instantly.
Yuzhu's dark eyes suddenly turned cold, and her gaze swept over Lily with a scrutinizing look.
Aoko, standing to the side, was so shocked that she forgot to eat the ice cream in her hand, her mouth slightly agape.
What's going on?
Arthur went out to buy groceries and somehow managed to attract such a beautiful girl, who even followed him to his house and asked to live together?!
Just then, footsteps came from the kitchen.
Arthur heard the noise and came out, immediately spotting the silver-haired girl standing outside the door.
"Miss Lily?"
"Arthur..." Yuzhu turned her head, staring coldly at him, "How do you plan to explain why this woman followed you all the way to your house?"
Arthur glanced at Lily, who looked completely innocent at the door, and was about to explain what had happened at the supermarket during the day.
Before he could speak, Lily spoke first:
"Today is my first meeting with Mr. Arthur, but I think I've fallen in love with him at first sight, because I find that my heart can't seem to leave him..."
Lily said this without any shyness, so bluntly that it was almost like stating some kind of premise.
Aoko's gaze immediately shifted back and forth between Arthur and Lily, her expression becoming quite strange.
For some reason, upon hearing Lily's undisguised words, Aoko's heart suddenly tightened, and she felt a strange tightness in her chest.
Yuzhu heard these words, of course, but she didn't even bother to look at Lily again.
She simply watched Arthur silently, waiting for him to speak.
For Yu-joo, the words of outsiders were meaningless; she only needed this man's explanation.
Arthur looked somewhat helpless, realizing he had once again caused trouble for Aoko and Aoko.
He honestly recounted in a concise manner how he went grocery shopping during the day, how Lily stopped him, and how Lily asked to go home with him but he sternly refused.
After hearing these words, the coldness in Youzhu's eyes slowly dissipated, and her expression returned to its usual calm and composed state.
It turned out to be just wishful thinking on one side.
Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense nerves relaxed.
After calming down, Youzhu realized that she had actually made a guest who came to visit stand outside the door in the snow.
This was extremely rude of her, given that she had received strict etiquette training since childhood.
"Please come in," Yuzhu said calmly, stepping aside.
She invited Lily into the living room, but that did not mean she agreed to Lily's request.
Yu-chu had already made up her mind; no matter what the other party said, a refusal was a refusal.
No other woman is allowed to set foot on her territory.
The three of them sat down on the sofa.
Yuzhu picked up the teapot and poured Lily a cup of black tea, which Arthur had just brewed in the kitchen.
Just as Yuzhu put down the teapot, preparing to say the result that would make her happy but would definitely disappoint Lily, Lily suddenly spoke up.
Her purple eyes passed over Yuuko and Aoko, landing directly on Arthur standing to the side, her tone filled with undisguised doubt:
"Why is His Highness the Knight King here?"
The moment those words were spoken, the air in the living room froze.
Qingzi, who was about to drink tea, trembled and almost spilled the tea.
Yuzhu's movements froze instantly, and both of their gazes sharpened simultaneously as they stared intently at the silver-haired girl before them.
Arthur, who was standing next to him, was also taken aback, and then suddenly slapped his forehead.
Yup!
He had clearly planned to ask Aoko a proper question about what exactly the "Knight King" was when she returned.
Before he could even speak, the girl named Lily preemptively started the conversation.
