There was a long moment of silence in the room, awkward... Mu Yi stood still, Ye Xian leaned against his chair to glance over, and Feng Rong was precisely ten feet away from me. I wasn"t sure what to say either.However, I felt the aura of strangulation vanishing from my back. It"s a good thing the woman in the black dress realized I was brought here for Mu Yi. No, what am I thinking? It wasn"t a good thing! Brought wasn"t the right word either, more like dragged against my own will.
"H-hey..." I awkwardly greeted Mu Yi who was making his way towards me. Unconsciously, I took a few steps back myself, making quick glimpses at Feng Rong for help.
"Fate must have brought the two of you together!" Feng Rong clapped his hands together, ignoring my plead for help.
More like ill-fated! During these past few days, whatever I do and wherever I go, I seem to be coming in contact with Mu Yi lately. I used to never b.u.mp into him even when I wanted to. I could be sitting outside his office all day, yet somehow still miss him!
"Feng Rong, I"m going to bring you over the rainbow," I bashfully smiled at him. "Then back down."
"What?" Feng Rong didn"t catch the warning Yun Anong dropped on him. She was going to destroy him.
"We need to talk," Mu Yi grabbed Anong"s hand, wanting to take her out of this room. He knows the smell was too much for her sensitive nose.
I took my hand back. Jeez, first it"s my phone being s.n.a.t.c.hed away. Now, my hand is being grabbed whenever someone wants to.
"Did we have something to talk about CEO Mu?"
"Anong," Mu Yi called out her name through gritted teeth. He hates it, whenever she uses CEO Mu or Mr. Mu. None of those names sounded right coming out from her. The names did not sit right with him. What does he have to do to hear her at least call him Mu Yi?
I didn"t do anything, and neither did Mu Yi do anything to me. We really didn"t have anything to talk about. I don"t know why Mu Yi was getting irritated for. Also, I pray Tang Liang did not buy a shark already. The pool in my backyard is not family friendly for a shark.
"Are you mad at me about having a new woman?" Mu Yi pursed his lips. He looked like a child who was caught doing something terrible.
Yeah, I almost forgot about the "new" woman until I saw him. What he chooses to do is none of my business.
"It"s not true," Mu Yi clenched his fist nervously, he wasn"t sure if Anong was going to believe him. Since she was unwilling to go with him to talk privately, he doesn"t mind telling her right here, right now. The faster the misunderstanding clears up, the better their relationship will improve.
I did not show any expression that I was touched by his honesty. Instead, I took out my phone to see how much time had pa.s.sed since the last phone call. Okay, almost less than ten minutes had pa.s.sed. Hopefully, Tang Liang"s friends can hold him down for two more minutes.
I appeared to look disinterest in Mu Yi explanation. But, if Mu Yi were to say this to my sixteen-year-old self, I would be ecstatic to hear nothing happened. Just the media looking for anything to publish for views.
Ye Xian who was usually the nosy one kept quiet the whole time. Though he made sure to have his ears perked up to not miss anything. He liked the fact that he was getting juicy gossip firsthand about Mu Yi"s love life.
As one of his close friend, Mu Yi was tight-lipped when it comes to his love life. This was his first time seeing Mu Yi make that kind of expression or willing to explain his actions. It was enough to show how precious the peach blossom woman was to him. Plus if he were to interject, he was getting in the middle of a couple feud.
Ye Xian didn"t just listen, he was studying Yun Anong up and down. He wanted to know what was so special about her to make Mu Yi fall head over heels for her.
From what he observed, Yun Anong is almost as tall as a model. Though she was only shoulder length when standing next to Mu Yi. Her long slender legs were outstanding, especially when she was wearing black leggings. The leggings gripped her legs in a way that outlined her body shape. She didn"t have anything fancy on, she wore a red hoodie with red sneakers. Her long black hair was pulled back into a low ponytail, showing off her small oval face and high cheekbones.
She could be pa.s.sed off as a celebrity or model, which he had got together with many who had similar appearances. So Ye Xian wasn"t sure what was so amazing about this woman.
"Are you done staring?" I t.i.tled my head to the side a little. My question was directed at Ye Xian who didn"t blink for almost a minute. At first it funny when I counted to thirty seconds, but now it was scary when he still did not blink.
"M-me?" Ye Xian stammered, he didn"t realize he was still staring at her this whole time. It was at this moment, he realized it wasn"t her appearance that made her charming. It was the way she carried herself that made her captivating.
Mu Yi turned around to glare at Ye Xian, "Don"t look at her! You"re not allowed to look."
Then at the corner of his eyes, he looked at Feng Rong, "Better yet, don"t touch her either."
Yes, this was what I have been waiting for! The corner of my lips lifted up slightly. "Aiya, CEO Mu don"t you believe we are fated? b.u.mping into each other so much."
Even when I desperately on my life tried avoiding you.
"Yes!" Feng Rong joined in, extremely happy he did a good thing for his best friend today.
"It"s just... Your friend was touching me here and here." I pointed at the places Feng Rong "supposedly" touched.
Feng Rong was shocked at the false accusation against him.
"And he wouldn"t stop even when I said no!"
