Chapter 241: Jealousy
There was a time difference between the two locations where they were. It was still noon where Mu Feichi was, but it was already nighttime in Yun Xi’s home.
Accustomed as she was to seeing him suddenly appear in her room, Yun Xi wasn’t surprised that he had hacked into her computer.
“Young Master Mu, may I ask you what you mean by this?”
“Do you really have no idea what I mean?”
“I guess I’m just blind!”
Other people send goose feathers from thousands of miles away, yet he’s hacked into her computer as if he had every right in the world to do so. What else could he mean?
Every time he saw her, he was either climbing into a window or hacking into a computer and being so secretive as if they were having a secret affair.
“It’s okay, I’m not really blind.”
“…”
Mu Feichi smiled, fixed his gaze on her face, and said lazily, “I heard that you won your little game.”
“Young Marshal Mu is really very well informed.”
“What reward do you want?”
This question made it seem as if he were coaxing a child with a pampering and indulgent tone, so Yun Xi couldn’t help but shake her pen angrily.
Yun Xi’s eyes flashed with fire. It was possible to see a faint gleam in the depths of Yun Xi’s eyes.
“Anything…?” She asked hesitatingly.
“As long as it’s not for the sake of any other men.”
“Then there is nothing that I want!”
He had clearly guessed what she actually wanted, and he had vetoed this desire before she had even spoken about it.
“If one wants to work in the Mu Group, one mustn’t be afraid of death.”
“Xiang Yuanjiu is a gangster. He’s not a no-do-gooder!”
“You’ve only known him for a few days, yet you think you know him well?”
There was a bit of contempt and sourness in his deep voice.
He’d wanted to see her face from 1,000 miles away just to express his jealousy over Xiang Yuanjiu?
What a pain in the neck!
“I don’t know him very well, but he isn’t irresponsible.”
“A man can easily be responsible, but a man’s responsibility needs to be shaped by the ordeals of life, so he can be mentally prepared.”
“Then you agree?”
As soon as she heard him say this, she immediately got closer to the screen in her excitement, and hints of joy could be seen on her delicate-featured smooth face.
Looking at her, Mu Feichi smiled helplessly. She really was an easily satisfied little cat.
“You have spoken so eloquently for him, so how can I not agree?”
As long as she wanted something, as long as he could give it to her, he would give her anything.
“Oh, thank you!” Now that she had his consent, she felt relieved of a large burden.
Upon seeing the casually dressed man in the light green s.h.i.+rt who had been in the video, she suddenly remembered watching the interview on TV.
“Young Marshal Mu is seeking a potential partner from all the women in the world? Your marriage requirements seem really high!”
There were very few women in Jingdu who were on a par with him.
Besides the fact that he had high standards, for a man as exceptional as he was, only a woman equally as exemplary was qualified to stand by his side.
This would be conducive to a harmonious family and world…
Conducive to a peaceful world… She was curious as to what woman he would choose to be qualified to stand by his side.
Mu Feichi gazed at her leisurely with a faint smile at the corners of his mouth. There was a soulful expression in his deep, dark eyes.
He’d never accepted media interviews, but today he’d made an exception.
The words that he’d said to the camera had indeed only been addressed to her.
As for the woman who could stand beside him, no one but Yun Xi was qualified.
“Well, do you want to take up the challenge?”
Yun Xi’s heart lurched. Knowing that it was impossible, she couldn’t help but laugh.
With narrowed eyes, Yun Xi deliberately asked with her chin raised, “Accept the challenge of becoming the wife of the Mu Family’s heir?”
“What do you think?”
“Young Marshal Mu, don’t make fun of me. I am still young, and I don’t have that much ambition.”
“I can wait! The position as the wife of the Mu Family’s heir is a golden opportunity, so don’t you want to try to fill it?”
“It’s too much. I’m afraid it’s way too much for me to undertake.”
“With me, you’ll be able to bear it. I’ll take care of you.”
“…” This topic was too awkward to continue.
Coughing lightly, she pinched the bridge of her nose to relieve the feeling of awkwardness she felt at this moment. “When will you be back?”
“Why, do you miss me?”
“Can’t you speak seriously for one minute?”
Yun Xi bit her lips and glared at him. The anger in her glare shocked the man who was sitting in a hotel room in a different country.
If this had been in the middle of the night, he would have suffered insomnia until dawn.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I will wait until you come back.”
She had to say thank you to him in person for helping her.
