He leaned over, planting a gentle and slightly warm kiss quietly on her forehead. His gentle movement seemed like he was comforting a most beloved angel.
When he saw that she had already closed her eyes, while gripping his shirt tightly with the fingertips turning slightly pale, he then could not help but chuckle softly. He moved back slightly and then lightly patted her head before laughing very perceptively, “I’m not a human-eating monster. What are you so nervous about?”
Xi Xiaye almost instantly opened her vaguely misty eyes. Her forehead still held the residue of his faint warmth as she subconsciously blurted out, “I’m not nervous!”
When he saw her looking so anxious to defend herself, the curve on Mu Yuchen’s lips widened. His hand slid down her hair and gently embraced her shoulders. “If you’re not nervous, then how do you explain what your hand is doing right now?”
Xi Xiaye followed his gaze and looked. That was when she realized that she was grasping tightly onto the front of his shirt…
Her expression instantly flushed with scarlet as she let go of his shirt. His light gray top was already wrinkled from being grasped by her. She quietly looked down and arranged her messy windbreaker a little awkwardly.
When he saw this, he could not help but laugh softly. In the meantime, the cars that sped up from behind had already stopped beside them and the speed junkies all walked towards them.
“Let’s go. Otherwise, we’ll be in trouble.” Mu Yuchen took a look at the people who walked over. They did not seem like members of a race car club like the people from the other night. Instead, they looked more hostile.
Then, before Xi Xiaye could react, he had already pulled her up while he moved over. The two of them had very quickly exchanged positions.
Screech!
Several squeals of cars braking were heard. A few cars from behind had already come up to surround them, and by the looks of it, they wanted to block them.
Mu Yuchen was calm as usual as he quickly started the car. “Sit tight!”
With these two words, the car did a heart-stopping reverse maneuver, and then he very quickly and accurately offset the steering wheel. They brushed past like an arrow between the two cars that had wanted to trap them in between. Before they could surround them, they had already sped out of the circle and left.
“It’s best to come here less often. How are you going to handle it if you get into trouble?!”
He increased the car speed rapidly and wound up the car windows before he shot her a look and had a strict tone.
Xi Xiaye then pursed her lips slightly and subconsciously looked towards the cars behind. Indeed, those people were throwing things at their car…
“I thought it was the same as last time,” she softly explained.
He thought about it and said, “If you’re really interested in doing it recreationally, I’ll bring you to join a racing club another day.”
Xi Xiaye inhaled slightly. “Mmm, we’ll see. Probably when I get busy again, I won’t have much time.”
Usually, after New Year was when she was busy. When the entire year came down, she did not even have much time to rest. Usually, weekends or holidays were for tidying up and cleaning, and to treat herself. She would read or drink some tea. If she took over the South River project, it would only make her even busier.
Seeing her brows furrowed into a knot, he then reminded, “Say a few more nice things to me. If I’m happy, then I’ll obviously give you a holiday.”
When she heard him, xXiaye’s brows instantly raised. She quietly turned to her side and looked at him thoughtfully. “Are you hinting me to brown nose you?”
“What do you think?”
Mu Yuchen’s calm and unfathomable gaze gave her a look.
Xi Xiaye’s beautiful eyes flashed and she said in shock, “In my impression, you aren’t this kind of person, Chairman Mu. The feeling you usually give people is very profound and not superficial!”
“My wife, you’re wrong then. It’s an affirmation for every man to be able to earn praises from his wife. This kind of affirmation is definitely the biggest encouragement and sense of achievement for him.”
Mu Yuchen looked mysteriously at Xi Xiaye, the corner of his lips curved into an incredible smile.
Xi Xiaye was puzzled by his words, and seeing his weird smile, she could only frown and try to figure out what he meant. After quite a while, she seemed to have understood something…
When they reached Maple Residence, it was already late at night. The couple was not busy with work till late as usual, after bathing and washing up, they lied down to rest.
The next day, Mu Yuchen still woke up very early. He prepared breakfast and simply had a few bites of it when Ah Mo and Li Si had already rushed over.
“Master, here’s your schedule today. Morning: At 9 a.m., there’s a company higher management meeting. At noon, CEO w.a.n.g of w.a.n.g Corporation has already made an appointment for lunch with you. At 2 p.m. you need to do an inspection at Car City. and at 4 p.m. City B’s proposal will be sent to the office.”
When they were about to reach the company, Li Si started reporting about his schedule for the day to Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen looked up from his doc.u.ments, his profound eyes silent for a while. Then, he said calmly, “Mmm, inform the few Vice Presidents to come to my office after the meeting.”
“Yes! Master!”
Before Li Si could answer, Mu Yuchen had already continued to read the doc.u.ment in his hand. It was the information that Xi Xiaye had arranged and handed to him yesterday morning on Yueying and Qi Kai.
He had to admit that when she worked, she was very serious. When she had any insights of thoughts on anything, she would make a note and raise it. Even though the entire plan looked very diverse, as long as one carefully remove some of the hypothetical content, plus refine it a little, it could become a pretty solid proposal.
As he read it, Mu Yuchen’s eyes flashed with admiration.
That little woman still had a lot of aspects worth for him to admire!
He closed the doc.u.ment. At that moment, the car slowly drove into Glory World Corporation.
“Master, we’ve reached!” Up ahead, Li Si reminded as he quickly got down from the car to open the door for Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen got down very quickly. He took huge strides into the company, but just as he had taken a few steps, suddenly came a gentle and sweet voice.
“Charmain Mu, h.e.l.lo!”
The sudden voice made Mu Yuchen slowly stop in his steps. His quiet and unfathomable line of sight lifted and looked ahead. What greeted his sight was unexpectedly a familiar face…
Mu Yuchen squinted his eyes, his indefinitely flickering gaze sweeping across this woman before him. He had a vague impression of this woman, yet he could not remember who she was until Li Si’s voice called out, “Miss Xi Xinyi!”
Li Si, who followed Mu Yuchen, had immediately recognized this woman who stood before him!
