Speaking about Su Nan, her little face that was usually indifferent appeared emotional. From that alone, you could tell that this woman nad Su Nan had a deep influence on her.
He smiled faintly as he looked at her, a dim light hidden in his eyes flashing.
She was absent-minded for quite a while, then she snapped back from her mories. Gazing up, she said to him with a sincere and earnest gaze, “So, you must respect my best friend from here on too.”
“Your friend is my friend. Obviously, I’ll treat her well,” Mu Yuchen stated before pausing. Then, he continued, “As for those gatherings, if you don’t feel comfortable the next ti, just don’t go. After the New Year, Vice President Liu will take on handling the company’s advancent into the showbiz industry. I’ve also given him the file that you passed to to arrange altogether. Are you sure you won’t have any problems here?”
The file...
About Yueying’s 20% of shares?
When he ntioned this, her smiling face instantly darkened. Evidently, she did not forget all the unfortunate things that bubbled as a result of that. She just did not know if Deng Wenwen and Xi Xinyi would still go looking for Shen Wenna despite her vicious warning. She really hoped for Shen Wenna to live peacefully. If she could let go and move on from her relationship with her father and start anew with soone else, Xi Xiaye would be extrely happy.
However, Shen Wenna...
When she thought about this, she felt her heart sink. She lowered her gaze and thought about it for a while before sighing softly, “I’m fine. Just leave it to . You just do whatever you need to do. Don’t worry about .”
In reality, perhaps only by having Yueying in their control, they could hold them back. If that was really the case, she would not back off and give up on Yueying.
Mu Yuchen nodded. Noticing her twinkling eyes dim, his gaze eased as his slender and fair hand gently reached over and pat her head like he was consoling her without a word. He gently pulled her into a hug as he turned to look out the window quietly with his profound gaze.
She fell silent too and leaned into him without uttering a word. Her calm eyes followed his line of sight and looked out the window too. Then, she noticed that at that mont, the world was basking in the magnificent, warm sun.
All of it was all so clear. As she watched the scenery, she suddenly felt sothing blossom in her heart. It was sothing that could be called hope.
It was not sure how long passed before she felt that the frigidness all over her had been completely chased away by the faint warmth from his chest. Feeling much better, she retreated from his embrace and whipped her phone out to look at the ti. After that, she did not hesitate to call Ah Mo to co right away.
Not too long after they hung up, Ah Mo rushed over. By then, it was already almost half past four in the afternoon.
At the entrance of Maple Residence, Xi Xiaye handed the heavy briefcase to the tall and handso Ah Mo as she said, “Ah Mo, check again whether all the docunts are complete. I’ve prepared an extra copy of the contract. They’re all in the briefcase.”
“Okay.”
Ah Mo opened it to check everything another ti, then he nodded. “All here, Missus.”
Even though Mu Yuchen just made Ah Mo call Xiaye “sister-in-law”, Ah Mo still addressed her as Missus. He was fond of this Missus very much although he did not know why. He just felt like when she and his Master stood side by side, they looked extrely compatible. In fact, it felt oddly comforting.
“Be careful on the road,” Xi Xiaye advised. Suddenly, there were sounds of footsteps from behind her. Subconsciously, she turned around and saw the man walking out from the inside in huge strides.
When he reached Xi Xiaye’s side, he suddenly stopped. “It’s cold outside. Go back in. I’ve heated the food in the pot up. Eat by yourself and I’ll call you when I arrive.”
Xi Xiaye nodded. “Mmm, okay. You get into the car too and be careful on the road. I’ll go back inside now.”
Just as she was about to turn around, he suddenly yelled her na in a hoarse tone, “Xiaye!”
“Hmm?” She subconsciously responded, looking up at him in puzzlent.
He did not say anything. His long fingers lifted and gently touched her fair face. Then, he smiled to himself and suddenly turned around to get into the car.
Quickly, the car started and soon drove away from Maple Residence in the cold winds of the night.
Xi Xiaye still had not quite reacted as she watched the car drive further and further away. When she thought about his odd smile, she realized that he really was hard to fathom.
Without a certain person’s presence, the huge Maple Residence instantly felt empty and beca extrely quiet.
When she went back, she made her way straight to the study room and continued to work on the South River project.
Once she got busy, she forgot to have dinner until it was late at night when she received his call saying that he had reached City B. Only then, she got up exhaustedly to have a simple al before washing up to go to sleep.
The next morning, Xi Xiaye was woken up by a knock on the door. In a daze, she got up to open the door, and when she saw Wang Hui standing outside, she was extrely shocked!
Xi Xiaye stared at her with a stunned expression at the loving Wang Hui before her and cried out involuntarily, “Grandmother? Why are you here? And so early too?”
Wang Hui bead as she watched her, her smile filled with kindness. “Did I wake you up? Last night, Ah Chen called to say that I should co over to visit you if I have ti. He was worried that you wouldn’t be used to being alone, so I woke up early this morning and since I’ve got nothing much to do, I decided to co over. I made you breakfast too. Oh, Grandfather is coming over too later to take a look at that vacant space in the backyard of Maple Residence and revamp it. In a few more days when the weather gets warr, he’ll sow so flower seeds and plant so flowers. You young people don’t like doing all of those...”
When she started talking, Wang Hui beca a chatterbox that did not stop. She rambled on and then realized that she had awoken her granddaughter-in-law. With a smile, she said, “Okay, that’s enough. I’ll stop. You go and wash up first. Breakfast is ready, so when you’re done you can co downstairs to eat.”
Xi Xiaye then nodded and replied, “Mmm, okay. I’ll wash up and co down right away.”
“Go, go!” Wang Hui shooed with a smile before turning to leave the room.
When she saw her figure disappear outside the door, Xi Xiaye then fixed her ssy hair and went back to her bedroom.
By the ti she was done washing up and had gone downstairs, Wang Hui had already prepared the bowl and chopsticks. Mu Yinan had co over too, and he was busy doing sothing at the sofa.
“Good morning, Grandfather!” She greeted.
“Oh, you’re awake? Morning!”
Her sudden voice instantly startled Mu Yinan who was working on sothing and he stopped for a mont. He looked to where the sound ca from and his face broke with a dear and kind smile. “Are you getting used to living here?”
“It’s going pretty well. What’s this?”
Xi Xiaye walked over and looked a little puzzledly at the bag that Mu Yinan was fumbling with.
“Last year, I collected so flower seeds from the backyard of the old residence. The flowers that blossod looked pretty nice. Your grandmother rather likes it, and since I’ve got nothing to do, I’m planning to help you revamp the land in your backyard. When it blossoms, the house will be livelier,” Mu Yinan enthused.
