Without receiving an immediate response from Hu Xiaobei, Mu Lingling squinted her eyes in surprise.
Soon, she earnestly looked at Hu Xiaobei and softly murmured, "Brother Xiaobei, did you not expect that I could actually guess it?"
At this moment, Mu Lingling was merely guessing, yet she felt this guess was likely correct.
