"Let's eat." Mu Jinyu said with a smile, not saying anything more, and picked up the chopsticks to serve so dishes for Wen Rou.
Wen Rou ate the vegetables Mu Jinyu had served her, her gaze on him growing even more tender.
"My cooking isn't bad, right?" Mu Jinyu asked.
"Mhm." Wen Rou buried her head in her al, smiling.
The two of them finished eating quickly, and Wen Rou cleared the table and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
anwhile, Mu Jinyu walked into the living room, flopped down on the sofa with abandon, and gently rubbed his belly.
After all, he had eaten a al with Gu Xiyan and the others around three o'clock, and now it was nearly six, and he'd eaten another al, which indeed made him feel a bit too full.
But his digestive system was excellent, so it wouldn't really affect him, and he would be fine soon.
Wen Rou quickly finished washing the dishes and then went to the living room, sat next to Mu Jinyu, and looking at him hesitantly, she asked, "Shall I give you a rub?"
"Sure." Mu Jinyu turned his neck and said casually, "I didn't sleep very well today, feels like I might have a stiff neck, help press it a bit."
"Okay." Wen Rou responded, moved closer to Mu Jinyu, and then placed his head on her knees. Her small hands began to gently knead his neck and the back of his shoulders. "Does it hurt here?"
"Mhm, it's alright, a bit higher up." Mu Jinyu directed, "Yeah, that's the spot..."
After massaging Mu Jinyu for over ten minutes, he said, "That's enough, let's stop there."
After saying that, he reluctantly got up from Wen Rou's thighs and then looked carefully at Wen Rou, who was dressed in a black OL suit, and smiled, "How was work today?"
"It was pretty good, Sister Qingya was very kind to . I don't understand a lot of things, and she patiently taught , but should I just be an assistant or a secretary in the company? How could I..."
While speaking, Wen Rou cautiously glanced at Mu Jinyu's expression and said softly, "How did I suddenly beco the vice president of the company?"
"I can't handle this!" Wen Rou said with a distressed look.
These confusions and misunderstandings had been on her mind both while at work and on her way ho.
But during work hours, it wasn't appropriate for her to call him carelessly, and on the way ho, she got tangled up with Second Aunt and the others. By the ti she saw Mu Jinyu, she was so affected by them that she really had no interest in asking about these matters.
Now that Mu Jinyu had brought it up, she also hurriedly asked, thinking that she should ask Mu Jinyu to retract his decision, as it was really inappropriate for soone with only a high school education like her to be the vice president of a company, making her feel very unsettled and fearful.
Mu Jinyu laughed, "No worries, with your intelligence, those things won't be too difficult for you. Just go ahead and do it, don't be afraid. After all, my company is backed by others, even if it goes bankrupt, I could still sell it for a billion, so you don't need to be concerned about anything."
After saying that, Mu Jinyu suddenly wondered, relying solely on Wen Rou and Xu Qingya, could they really grow his first company?
They seed to lack experience, right?
As his thoughts continued, Mu Jinyu suddenly thought of Gu Xiyan, Yu Linglong, and i Yinxue, and mused that it would be great if they ca to his company to work for him...
But that didn't seem quite realistic, since each of them was a CEO in her own right. i Yinxue's net worth was unknown, probably at least a hundred billion, and Gu Xiyan's company seed smaller, but was probably worth at least a dozen billion, right?!
How could they possibly join his company and work for him?!
After chatting with Wen Rou for a while, Mu Jinyu told her not to overthink things, to diligently learn at the company, and to work hard for herself.
And then, they each returned to their rooms to sleep.
...
In the following days.
Mu Jinyu had a rare few days of peace, without being called upon for dical assistance or having various matters to deal with.
Although Xu Qingya had asked him to visit the company so that the senior managent could et him, since Wen Rou had already gone there, and he didn't need to show her the way, he felt a bit lazy and decided to check it out later.
When that ti ca, he planned to go undercover, entering the company as a new employee to see how many pests were inside, and then root them out!
i Yinxue also called him yesterday, telling him that her people had searched that stretch of road for a long ti and indeed found several of Huang Qiuhua's hideouts in River City, but they were a step too late, as his people had already retreated.
Even so, i Yinxue still breathed a sigh of relief. The uncomfortable feeling that had been stuck in her throat had also diminished, and she would increase vigilance over the comings and goings in River City so that Huang Qiuhua and his ilk could no longer freely enter and threaten her.
Having said this, she then invited Mu Jinyu out for a al and wanted to offer him so compensation to express her gratitude for the information he provided. Google seaʀᴄh novel(ꜰ)ire
But the lazy Mu Jinyu directly declined i Yinxue's invitation.
And tonight, after Mu Jinyu finished dinner and was preparing to watch a TV drama with Wen Rou before going to sleep, he suddenly received an unexpected call.
It was from Gu Xiyan.
Since he had helped her handle Trotsky, as well as dealt with Soldier King Lin Feng, the two of them had not been in contact.
Why she suddenly called tonight, could it be that she had another matter for him to handle?
Mu Jinyu pondered with suspicion, feeling inclined to ignore the call, but for so reason, he eventually answered it.
"Hello, co out and drink with …"
Gu Xiyan's voice sounded sowhat drunk, as if she had already consud quite a bit of alcohol. Her tone carried a tinge of sadness and heartache, as though she purposely sought to drown her sorrows in liquor.
Upon hearing her tone of voice, Mu Jinyu suspected she had dialed the wrong number. After all, although he had posed as her boyfriend a few tis, his actual relationship with her wasn't that good.
"Hey, you've got the wrong number, woman. This is Mu Jinyu!" Mu Jinyu reminded her with a frown.
"I didn't dial wrong… *hic*…" Gu Xiyan let out a hiccup, not caring at all about maintaining her ladylike image, and said in a tipsy manner, "It's you I'm looking for. Hurry up and co out to drink with !"
Mu Jinyu, who had refrained from alcohol and smoking since a young age for so reasons, responded with a frown, "But I don't drink."
Gu Xiyan, still in her drunken state, retorted, "Then just omit the drinking part!"
"Co out for a drink but omit the drinking part…" Mu Jinyu repeated, surprised, and then asked in disbelief, "You want to accompany you?!"
"Hurry up and co out, accompany … *sob*…"
Gu Xiyan said impatiently, seemingly touching upon her grievance, her tone becoming even more sorrowful, making Mu Jinyu feel all the more her loneliness and distress.
Mu Jinyu, unable to bear it, sighed and said, "Tell the address, I'll be right there."
Gu Xiyan then gave him the address, muttering, "Be quick about it!"
