Once again, Mu Siyin was stunned.
She was just wondering why Mrs. Laura would be interested in Mu Corporation. It turned out that it was Shi Beiyu’s recommendation.
“Why didn’t you mention it to me before?”
Shi Beiyu raised his eyebrows. “Why would I mention such a small matter?”
“Why wouldn’t you? You gave such a big customer to Mu Corporation without saying a thing. If we didn’t have this conversation today, were you planning on keeping this from me forever?”
Shi Beiyu smiled as he noted how Mu Siyin was taking things so seriously. “All I did was recommend Mu Corporation to her. In the end, it is still up to your capabilities to meet her requirements and satisfy her.”
Mu Siyin looked at Shi Beiyu with mixed feelings. He had always been like this – helping her from behind silently and never uttering a word.
“If you don’t say anything, no one will know that you helped us.”
Shi Beiyu replied, “No one has to know. Mu Corporation is your mother’s culmination after all, so I should be taking care of it whenever I can.”
As soon as his voice fell, Mu Siyin could not help herself anymore. She raised her hand to caress one side of his handsome face. With a low voice, she said, “Do you know how foolish you are?”
Shi Beiyu locked eyes with her and replied with a hoarse voice, “I am willing.”
Mu Siyin’s heart throbbed. She could not help herself from hooking her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips.
Shi Beiyu was taken aback, feeling somewhat flattered.
However, in the next second, he switched from being passive to active. He hugged her waist tight and passionately sucked at her lips.
If possible… He really wanted to do it with her right here, right now!
Mu Siyin felt that her feelings for Shi Beiyu were like a turbulent sea. There was no way she could suppress it.
How could she not love a man who treated her so sincerely?
She would not refuse if Shi Beiyu wanted her right now.
However…
The kiss was soon over, and he let go of her like an honest man.
Mu Siyin was surprised. She had already felt the changes in his body just now, so she thought …
Shi Beiyu was breathing heavily and could feel his blood pumping, but… not yet for now.
He had to resist.
Mu Siyin noted his miserable expression and coughed lightly. “Actually, that…”
“Have you thought about your design?”
Shi Beiyu quickly changed the topic to something work-related.
Stunned, Mu Siyin blinked in response. “Not yet. I have not seen Mrs. Laura’s most recent clothing release.”
Shi Beiyu nodded and said, “When we get back, I will help you look for it.”
Mu Siyin simply nodded and agreed.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere turned awkward.
Mu Siyin twisted her fingers together and looked out of the window. When she saw the road sign outside, she suddenly remembered something.
“Oh right. I… I think I better return to the Mu family villa tonight.”
Shi Beiyu was stunned for a moment, but he could guess what she meant. “Don’t worry. I will accompany you to the cemetery tomorrow morning.”
Mu Siyin frowned. “But you’re so busy…”
“We can go earlier tomorrow morning and return to the office right after the prayers.”
Due to Mu Siyin’s special condition, Shi Beiyu felt that it was best if she did not stay there for long.
Mu Siyin blinked and pondered for a short while. In the end, she could only agree. “Alright.”
In the previous years, she would always linger around for a long time. However, if he wanted to go with her, they would just have to leave right after the prayers.
When they returned to the villa, Uncle Zhong had already prepared dinner.
Mu Siyin ate with Shi Beiyu, and they moved to the study room afterward.
Mu Siyin rarely went into Shi Beiyu’s study, almost never in this lifetime.
As she glanced across the familiar room, she subconsciously looked at the photo on the study table…
