639: Chapter 635 I’m Not Your White Horse Prince (Second Update) 639: Chapter 635 I’m Not Your White Horse Prince (Second Update) After leaving the office, Mu Qingxue imdiately put on her pigsnout mask again.
Being a highly prominent heavenly queen in China and due to the song “The Ugly Duckling”, she was almost constantly in the lilight, having beco a darling of the dia.
Without her mask, it wouldn’t have taken three minutes for Bai’s Group to possibly be overwheld by the frenzied dia.
At that point, not to ntion visiting Bai’s Group, escaping from there would have been difficult.
For the dia, explosive news equates to money.
When Lan Xin saw Mu Qingxue walking out of Bai Zhiqing’s office, she was slightly taken aback.
Looking at Mu Qingxue with so confusion, she felt that the woman in the pigsnout mask seed strangely familiar, as if she had seen her before, but she couldn’t recall where.
Grabbing her head in frustration, Lan Xin looked utterly perplexed.
She should rember who this woman was, but she just couldn’t think of her identity.
As Lan Xin racked her brain, Mu Qingxue had already entered the elevator with Lu Tianxing, one after the other.
Suddenly, Lan Xin shivered, and a spark flashed in her mind.
Instantly, she bowed her head and quickly typed a few characters into her computer, pulling up a photo of Mu Qingxue.
She then covered most of Mu Qingxue’s face with her hand and gasped.
“It’s her, it really is her.
The woman wearing the pigsnout mask was Mu Qingxue.
Mu Qingxue actually ca to Bai’s Group.”
A look of disbelief appeared on Lan Xin’s face.
She clamped her hand tightly over her mouth, afraid of shouting out.
Since Mu Qingxue was wearing a mask, she obviously didn’t want others to know she was at Bai’s Group.
“Mu Qingxue, it’s really Mu Qingxue.
And where is Lu Tianxing going with Mu Qingxue?
Could it be that bastard Lu Tianxing is the audacious guy who called Mu Qingxue ‘Ugly Duckling’?
Knowing his character, it’s really possible he did that.
But looking at him, Lu Tianxing doesn’t seem like a pro.
How could Mu Qingxue like him?
Impossible, impossible.
Maybe Mr.
Bai just asked him to accompany Mu Qingxue around, yeah, there’s no way Lu Tianxing could be the man that my idol, Mu Qingxue, has pined for all these years.”
Speaking softly to herself, Lan Xin shook her head vigorously, casting aside this implausible thought.
She’d never believe that her idol had pined for soone like Lu Tianxing, a scoundrel, for so many years.
Unaware of Lan Xin ntally disparaging him, Lu Tianxing led Mu Qingxue around various departnts of Bai’s Group.
As they walked, he introduced the departnts of Bai’s Group without much personal chat, rely a routine introduction of each departnt.
“Miss Mu, this is the cafeteria of Bai’s Group.
All the employees of Bai’s Group will dine here at noon.
The chefs here are top-level chefs we’ve hired with high salaries, dedicated to serving our company employees.
As our chairman says, the employees of Bai’s Group work hard for the company, and naturally, we must not let them down.”
Lu Tianxing and Mu Qingxue entered the cafeteria of Bai’s Group, continuing to introduce as they walked: “Miss Mu, if you don’t believe it, you can stay here and have lunch today.
I believe the food here won’t be much inferior to what you have in star-rated hotels.”
“Would it make any difference to you if you welcod to stay?”
Mu Qingxue turned around, her beautiful eyes unblinkingly fixed on Lu Tianxing, carrying an indescribable flavor.
“Miss Mu, whether I welco you or not, does it make a difference?”
“Of course there’s a difference,” Mu Qingxue said firmly.
“Ah, Miss Mu, why put yourself through this!”
Lu Tianxing looked at Mu Qingxue and took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and started speaking slowly, “Miss Mu, you really didn’t have to do this.
What does finding achieve?
When I rescued you back then, it was rely because I didn’t want to see a beauty die just like that.
In fact, you don’t owe anything.
As you can now see, I’m no different from anyone else, just an ordinary man trying to make money to support his family, not the flawless Prince Charming you envisioned, not your fairy tale.”
“But I…”
Mu Qingxue opened her mouth to say sothing but was again interrupted by Lu Tianxing, “Miss Mu, I know what you want to say, but don’t you think all this is just your own imagination?
When a woman is at her most desperate, she feels a deep unease, and if a man miraculously cos along, chases away the bad guys, and saves her, she will naturally keep that man’s image in her heart.
But let tell you, that’s not love, it’s just gratitude, the workings of a grateful heart.”
Listening to Lu Tianxing’s words, Mu Qingxue’s body trembled slightly, fighting hard to control her emotions, not letting herself cry out loud.
How had she not expected that the man she had tried so hard to find would tell her this?
She didn’t know if it was gratitude troubling her, or if it was fear that made her rember Lu Tianxing, but she knew she truly couldn’t forget him.
Since Lu Tianxing had rescued her, his image hadn’t faded in her heart over the years; instead, it had grown even deeper, like a towering tree rooted deep within her heart.
“Moreover, Miss Mu, you should know with the Mu Family’s resources, couldn’t they have found out where I was after all these years?
Yet, you couldn’t find for so many years; don’t you find that strange?
Clearly, the Mu Family didn’t want you to have too much contact with a poor guy like .
Otherwise, you would have known my whereabouts long ago, so why the struggle for so many years?”
Lu Tianxing sighed deeply.
It wasn’t that he disliked Mu Qingxue; any man would probably find it hard to reject a beautiful woman so devoted to him.
But now he genuinely felt powerless, with issues involving Lin Qianru and Rose unresolved and adding Mu Qingxue into the mix, he really didn’t know what might happen next.
What mattered more was that Mu Qingxue wasn’t Rose or Lin Yafei.
Behind her stood the Mu Family, a dignified Mu Family princess, becoming soone’s mistress, such a scandal would drive the entire Mu Family mad.
They would either force Mu Qingxue to leave him entirely or target the won around him; causing trouble for everyone involved.
Rather than that, it was better to cut off this relationship before it even started.
Moreover, he had enough enemies already and didn’t want to add the Mu Family to the list, at least not until his power had grown stronger.
He did not want to make an enemy of the Mu Family.
Upon hearing this, a wave of bitterness surged in Mu Qingxue’s heart, and she felt a strong urge to cry.
Lu Tianxing was right; with the Mu Family’s resources, it would have been very easy to find his whereabouts.
But every ti she inquired, she got the sa response: still looking.
The fact that she had found Lu Tianxing was entirely due to her relentless efforts, not because she relied on the Mu Family’s power.
Though Mu Qingxue was a woman, she bore the surna Mu, and the Mu Family would never allow her to marry soone who was of no use to the Mu Family.
Suppressing the urge to cry, Mu Qingxue looked at Lu Tianxing with deep affection and said, “Tianxing, could you hold once?
Just like when you saved , can you hold like that?”
Seeing the hopeful look in Mu Qingxue’s eyes, Lu Tianxing’s body trembled, and he fell silent.
