But he had a condition, this woman.
"Me, go with you? It’s just downstairs in the visitor’s lounge, and what about this place if I leave? I can’t leave here unattended, and Xiaozhan isn’t here."
Xiaozhan is the assistant to the secretary at the creek, and if the creek secretary isn’t there, she would usually be here keeping watch.
"You and your fiancé..."
"We’re getting married soon!"
The creek secretary turned her head, pulled back her chair, and sat down at her own desk. As soon as she finished speaking, she was already seriously facing the computer, her fingers casually tapping on the keyboard, looking very earnest.
After hearing this, Qiao Yi looked straight at her.
How long had the two of them been ?
Abnormal communication, just ...
He nodded and then, putting down what he had in his hands, strode toward the elevator.
The secretary’s fingers were still on the keyboard, her eyes fixed on the laptop screen, but her heart was already surrounded by pain.
Her breath was so weak that it seemed as if she lacked the strength to breathe.
In the afternoon, after meeting with the client, Qiao Yi took the materials to the Mu Family, and saw Qin Mu alone on the couch watching TV. He walked over and greeted her, "Mrs. Mu, you seem quite leisurely!"
Qin Mu, holding the remote, snuggled in the couch, turned her head at the sound and said, "Qiao Yi! Have a seat!"
After saying so, Qin Mu moved her legs off the couch, though continued to stare at the TV.
Qiao Yi took a seat on the single couch nearby, watching her concentrated, somewhat childish, silly demeanor, and asked, "Where’s Yichen? Out being your nanny again?"
"How does a husband doing things for his wife equate to being a nanny? He’s in the kitchen, will be out soon!"
Because she had already called, she knew Qiao Yi would come over, but Mu Yi still insisted on personally cooking for his lady.
Qiao Yi didn’t often come to the Mu Family mansion, but he still knew his way around.
Qin Mu responded, knowing they needed to talk business so she didn’t interrupt, just focused on watching her drama at home.
What she was watching was Tom and Jerry.
The one that Huanhuan really loves.
When Qiao Yi went to their kitchen, he saw the chef standing to the side while Mu Yi was busily working inside. Qiao Yi sighed helplessly, "The creek secretary said this is normal life for you, but I always find it strange."
"It seems you two communicate quite a bit when I’m not around."
Mu Yichen bent over, properly preparing the vegetable platter, chatting with Qiao Yi in the process.
The chef recognized him, greeted him, and came forward, "Young Master, let me take over!"
Mu Yichen placed the mixed vegetables aside and slowly walked out of the kitchen. As the two of them walked out, Mu Yichen was already looking at the materials that Qiao Yi had brought back.
"These two old men really know how to take advantage of a situation!"
Mu Yichen’s eyes sharply scrutinized the black and white document, his voice cool and indifferent as he remarked.
"Right? They think you’re young and therefore more generous!"
As Qiao Yi said this, he involuntarily put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the ceiling, suddenly letting out a laugh.
Mu Yichen was famously stingy with some people.
"Reply to them next week. Give them this order!"
When Mu Yichen arrived at the living room couch, he said this as he sat down and casually tossed the materials onto the table.
The sound was actually very soft, but Qin Mu still couldn’t help but glance at him.
Qiao Yi still sat on the single couch, looking at the two of them sitting together, yet he asked Mu Yichen seriously, "Are you sure?"
"Yeah!" Mu Yichen responded, his hand naturally reaching behind Qin Mu.
"These two old guys are known for stirring trouble in K City. If we let them take advantage of this deal, won’t they just make things worse for us?"
"Isn’t this contract just for a year? Our group has a cooperation with K City at the end of this year, and this contract will be helpful for us."
Mu Yichen looked down at the materials on the table, his voice low as he explained.
Qin Mu, although not sure what was happening, heard them discussing something that seemed to indicate her husband was unleashing a big move?
"Have you already planned to expand into K City?"
"Yeah! You will have to stay there for a while too!"
Mu Yichen said as he raised his eyes to look at Qiao Yi, but his chest was still turned towards Qin Mu.
Watching his confident, relaxed posture, Qiao Yi couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh, "Fine! As long as there is money."
Accustomed to following orders. Resigned.
Out of curiosity, Qin Mu asked, "Are you pursuing the creek secretary?"
Their work discussion was going well, but the moment this topic came up...
"No way! Who told you that?"
