âWhen you had the chance to eat, you didnât, and now youâre all hands. Itâs pointless. Keep this up, and Iâll kick you out,â Wen Xin warned Mu Chengxi in a deliberately lowered voice.
Chengxi looked at the seemingly angry little girl in his arms and smiled gently, âYouâll understand what kind of person I am in the future. I can wait a bit longer.â
The next morning, while Wen Xin was having breakfast, Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe rushed in from outside. When Mu Dong opened the door for them, he immediately sensed their weary presence.
âYoung Master Liang, Young Master Gu, what happened?â freewe(b)novel.com
âYou havenât heard? Our familyâs master has had his identity exposed!â Liang Luoyu said nervously to Mu Dong, surprised that Mu Dong, who was always by Mu Chengxiâs side, was unaware of such significant news.
Mu Chengxi continued his breakfast calmly. Wen Xin looked up at him, her eyes filled with surprise. She had never imagined that Mu Chengxi was actually the head of the Mu family.
Liang Luoyu, without pausing to change his shoes, walked straight into the dining room and sat down next to Mu Chengxi, grabbing a meat bun and taking a bite.
âMaster Xi, how do you plan to handle this?â
âHandle it? Why would I do anything? I announced it myself last night. The more people know, the better. It saves me from having to listen to brainless comments from those who donât think.â
Gu Yanzhe, who entered the dining room afterward, looked at Wen Xin first upon hearing Mu Chengxiâs words, guessing that someone must have said something inappropriate to provoke Mu Chengxi, prompting him to reveal his identity in a fit of anger.
The cost of defending his honor for a beauty seemed too great. He hoped the Mu family would restrain themselves to avoid chaos.
After finishing her last bun, Wen Xin casually took a tissue from the box on the table to wipe her mouth and stood up.
âContinue eating. Iâm going to change my clothes. I need to go out today.â
âAlright, go change.â Mu Chengxiâs gaze followed Wen Xin, filled with tenderness.
After she left the kitchen, the gentleness in Mu Chengxiâs eyes vanished. He turned to Mu Dong, âGet a car suitable for Wen Xin. Sheâll probably drive herself out today.â
Mu Dong was surprised by Mu Chengxiâs arrangement, not expecting him to let Wen Xin drive out alone, but he went downstairs to fetch the car keys as instructed.
Once Mu Dong was gone, Mu Chengxi resumed eating, not mentioning the Mu family affairs. Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe also tactfully refrained from asking any further questions.
When Wen Xin came down, changed and ready, the car keys were already on the coffee table. Mu Chengxi was sitting on the sofa, holding a tablet, engrossed in something.
Noticing Wen Xin dressed in a thin white long-sleeve knit top and light blue skinny jeans, accentuating her figure and revealing her slender, toned legs, he wondered when such sexy clothes had made their way into their home.
His expression softened a bit when he noticed the long coat draped over Wen Xinâs arm. He would have been quite displeased if she had gone out dressed like that.
Seeing his frown, Wen Xin looked down at her outfit, not seeing anything amiss.
âIs there something about my clothes that displeases you?â she asked, noticing him examining her.
Mu Chengxi nodded, then shook his head, âNothingâs inappropriate. Itâs just that your figure is too good; itâs somewhat unsuitable.â
Wen Xin gave him a lazy glance, thinking if this was the reason for his displeasure, then it was rather trivial.
Mu Chengxi picked up the keys from the coffee table and handed them to Wen Xin, who lightly tossed them in her hand, âAre you really okay with me driving out alone?â
âWhat else? You wouldnât want anyone to accompany you,â Mu Chengxi replied with a hint of resignation. Knowing the young girl had her own will, he couldnât restrict her and had no choice but to spoil her.
Hearing his resigned tone, Wen Xin smiled softly, appreciating that Mu Chengxi understood her desire to do things independently and disliked being followed.
âThen Iâll be off.â Wen Xin smiled brightly, appearing in a good mood.
She walked towards the door, then turned back and approached Mu Chengxi, who looked puzzled by her return.
âWhat brought you back?â
Mu Chengxi was curious about Wen Xinâs sudden return after she had already headed out.
Wen Xin bent down and gently kissed his lips, lightly biting his lip with her teeth.
The three onlookers were surprised by Wen Xinâs bold move, not expecting her to kiss Mu Chengxi in front of everyone.
Wen Xin, holding the car keys, left the house and took the elevator down to the underground parking garage. Pressing the key fob, the lights of a white Aston Martin flashed.
Wen Xin, slightly surprised, hadnât expected Mu Chengxi to own such a sports car; she thought his taste in vehicles leaned more towards comfort.
She got into the car, adjusted the seat, confirming the carâs owner was indeed a man, patted the steering wheel, scanned the carâs interior, started the engine, stepped on the gas, and drove out of the garage.
The white Aston Martin, under the sunlight, appeared to have a peacock blue hue. Wen Xin was surprised by Mu Chengxiâs taste. Was he really so flamboyant?
At Technology Park in the city center, autumn in the capital was in full swing. The fallen maple leaves on both sides of the road painted a picturesque scene, making it feel like a painting.
Wen Xin parked her car in front of an office building and saw many young men and women with resumes heading towards the building for the second recruitment fair of Tianye Technology Company, a chance eagerly awaited by the IT industryâs elite.
Wen Xin, putting on her coat and mask and slinging her backpack casually, took the documents she had prepared yesterday and walked into the office building.
The staff member at the entrance, wearing a Tianye Technology Company badge, assumed Wen Xin was there for the job interview.
âMiss, for interviews, please take this elevator to the fifteenth floorâŠâ
Wen Xin glanced at the man with the badge, not surprised he didnât recognize her. After all, her visits to the company were usually handled by Yuan Junyeâs assistant..
