Chapter 1139: I’ll Do Anything for You
Truth be told, Yun Xi did not really care for the sweet words of a love confession. Mu Feichi had packed their daily interactions with them regardless, and often she’d felt as if she was soaked in a jar of honey. Their conversation almost got lost in his sweet comments.
However, Yun Xi was certain Mu Feichi was serious.
The fact that a serious Mu Feichi was hard to come by made his declaration more terrifying in Yun Xi’s eyes.
Hence, Yun Xi resorted to blinking in response. She was worried there were more traps being laid ahead of her, and knowing how Mu Feichi was she knew she could not compete with him.
Seeing that Yun Xi had not responded to his question, Mu Feichi thought that Yun Xi wanted the confession as well. After a moment of silent thought, Mu Feichi spoke up.
“Tell me, babe, what kind of confession do you want? The romantic kind? A more a.s.sertive one? I’ll do anything that satisfies you. If you want an inch, I’ll give you a yard. As long as I can, I will. Who cares what the world thinks, I will do anything for you.”
“…” Yun Xi did not for a moment doubt this confession from Mu Feichi, nor did she question the sincerity of his brazen declaration.
He was Mu Feichi, and he would keep his promises. Yun Xi did not doubt that at all.
For Yun Xi, all he had said was enough. She was only teasing him when she asked for a confession. She did not need anything of that kind.
She remembered Han Yaotian’s confession from her past life. She remembered how moved she had been by the promises of a pa.s.sionate romance. She’d felt as if she was at the top of the world. But it had all come cras.h.i.+ng down, and she had landed in the depths of h*ll in the end.
Mu Feichi delicately pinched Yun Xin’s chin and chuckled. “If you can’t make any decisions, then I will plan everything myself.”
The rare appearance of kindness on the complexion of a battle-hardened soldier was enough to send Yun Xi’s mind into a dizzying spell. She felt as if she could almost drown in the pa.s.sion of his love.
“Work on this matter first! I will give you a surprise later.”
Yun Xi frowned in confusion. “What are you talking about, planning it?” She blinked.
There was a world of difference between a secret relations.h.i.+p and a relations.h.i.+p that the entire country was aware of.
“Just do whatever you wish. I will respect your decisions no matter what you choose.”
He had made it clear that he would never pressure her into accepting or doing anything. Even in this case, even if it meant it would continue to hurt his emotions, he would accept it.
“Don’t wanna wrong me, do you? Then make sure you are mentally prepared. There’s still time for you to reconsider, so no rush at all.”
“…” He may have been putting on a show previously, but ultimately he still gave her the time and the s.p.a.ce to consider the situation. He was not going to force her hand in anything.
How could Yun Xi let any harm affect someone like him?
No matter the rain or the storm or the hurricanes that might come their way in their future, she would do whatever it took to shoulder it with him.
Keeping Yun Xi’s face gently in his hands, Mu Feichi gave Qi Yuan a look, and he moved to leave the monitoring room.
Outside the investigation unit, Mu Feichi took out his cell phone and dialed Gu Baifan. “Do up an a.s.set valuation of all my properties for me, and send it up to Tianyu Mountain by 6:00 pm.”
“Ah? Why do you need the a.s.set valuation, Young Master? There’s no way we can produce an accurate one this quickly.”
“A rough estimate is good enough. All I need is proof of my a.s.sets. You don’t need to get into the details.”
“Why do you need this, Young Master?”
This sudden request had given Gu Baifan quite a scare. He had no idea what the Mu family’s Young Master was planning to do.
On any ordinary day, Mu Feichi had always been nonchalant about his net worth or how many a.s.sets he owned. He had checked it once or twice, but it was not a big concern for him.
So his sudden request for his balance sheets was strange. Moreover, there were numerous companies under the Mu Corporation, and it would be tough to consolidate their value at once. Each company had to consolidate its accounts before reporting to the main corporation. It would take days to obtain the roughest estimate.
“I want to confess to my love. I have to be sincere, you know?”
“Don’t confessions usually involve flowers and not…net worth evaluations? Is this okay, Young Master?”
“Oh, and don’t forget to buy a bouquet too.”
“Buy…what flowers? And how many?” This entire exchange had knocked Gu Baifan’s shoes right off his feet. Why did the master suddenly ask such illogical things?
It was unheard of. He had never met anyone who would use their a.s.set valuation as a way to confess their love.
If he had not known who Miss Yun was and what character she possessed, he would have been worried. Any woman who had seen the number of zeros on the Young Commander’s net worth estimate would agree in a heartbeat.
