"Miss Qin, about that night, I think I owe you a very sincere apology. I actually wanted to find you earlier, but I had to leave the city for so business, and I just got back this afternoon..."
He looked up at her, words seed to be on the tip of his tongue, his eyes full of indescribable pain.
"President Liu, there’s no need to say more."
Qin Mu dried her hands gently after washing them, without even lifting her head.
If it was him who had drugged her drink that night, then she would have nothing to do with him from now on. If it was soone else trying to set them up, then she wouldn’t have any dealings with him either, because his confession made it impossible for her to pretend to have a normal relationship and communicate with him.
"No, I have to say it, or it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings between us—did you feel unwell after drinking the drink I gave you?"
Liu Jingyuan asked her firmly.
Qin Mu unconsciously looked at him through the mirror, her eyebrows furrowed with doubt.
Does he an he was drugged too?
His question, could it be that he’s innocent?
So who exactly drugged both of their drinks that night, and what was that person’s purpose?
No!
She imdiately knew what the purpose was.
Qin Mu suddenly rembered the entertainnt news about their night together that circulated in the dia the morning after.
"That night I... I later tried to investigate, but it was fruitless," he said, distressed, not noticing the struggle and resentnt in Qin Mu’s eyes.
"But I heard that Mu Yi also investigated the incident at the hotel, did you find out anything?"
"Nothing!"
She replied subconsciously, but felt sowhat exhausted.
The more she speculated, the angrier she beca.
It must have been Jing Qing.
This woman was becoming more and more disgraceful.
She could even stoop to such dirty tricks.
The more Qin Mu thought about it, the angrier she beca, then turned around to face him.
"I’m sorry that I may have implicated you in this matter, but it’s best we don’t see each other anymore!"
Qin Mu looked at him directly, very coldly.
Liu Jingyuan stared at her heartlessly, his hand trembling with the cigarette, his mind going blank.
She nodded and left, while he was slow to react.
She seed to be in a bad mood. He wondered if it was because Mu Yichen had given her a hard ti that night. Liu Jingyuan sighed unconsciously, then slowly walked to the sink and put his hand under the faucet, the warm water imdiately running over his hands.
Qin Mu sat back down at the dining table, her complexion still poor.
Xiaoi looked up at her: "What’s wrong?"
"Nothing! Xiaoi, if soone keeps troubling you, using underhanded tactics against you, what would you do?"
"Fight back with the sa, of course! What’s happened?"
"Yeah, I shouldn’t keep being so passive."
After speaking, Qin Mu got up and left with her bag, Xiaoi staring blankly at her retreating figure and the barely touched food on the table, wondering, weren’t they here to eat?
The food was hardly touched.
That evening, Mu Yichen ca to see her as usual, and Qin Mu, feeling a bit tired, leaned on his shoulder: "I want to sleep here tonight."
"Okay, then I’ll stay with you. Should we go out for dinner?" he asked softly.
"I don’t want to move. Can you just stay and have takeout with ?"
"Alright! Just this once."
Qin Mu didn’t say anything, just lifted her head and kissed him hard on the face.
The two of them dined in the reception area on the first floor. Although it was takeout, the dishes were actually quite good.
After finishing their al, Qin Mu got up from the table without clearing it.
Mu Yichen unconsciously narrowed his eyes: "Why are you suddenly so initiative?"
"It’s not the first ti I’ve taken the initiative."
His lips were thin, but his affection for her was not so ager.
Qin Mu felt rather fortunate; they say n with thin lips are emotionally cold, but CEO Mu Yichen’s affections were deep.
It wasn’t until a flash from outside the glass was detected that Mu Yichen realized the reason for her initiative that night.
He guessed, laughing softly to himself.
The paparazzo kept snapping away outside, damn it, Qin Mu suddenly beca angry.
Seeing that the paparazzo was still looking for angles even after they went upstairs, Qin Mu felt an urge to grab his cara and throw it away.
It was agreed that a few quick photos were sufficient, mainly for the article.
But this guy dared to disobey orders, he would not be used again.
Qin Mu thought arrogantly in her heart that she needed to find a reliable paparazzo for possible long-term cooperation in the future.
Little did she know that Mu Yichen noticed her lack of focus when they got back to the room: "What kind of plot is this?"
"Huh? Plot? What plot?"
Qin Mu was startled by his words, her heart trembling: "Weren’t you in a hurry just now? Why aren’t you rushed all of a sudden?"
Mu Yichen asked her: "What exactly is the plot?"
"What plot?"
His demands had been fierce these past couple of days, and she was having a hard ti keeping up, actually.
She felt like her bones were about to crumble into useless lumber.
"What’s with the paparazzo downstairs? Tell !"
"You’ll know tomorrow."
"You should know that no one dares to plot against Mu Yichen so brazenly in Rongcheng, you’re the first one."
"Really? Then am I not adding to your glory?"
Qin Mu asked, her almond eyes shining brightly, dazzling like diamonds.
Mu Yichen pressed against her forehead and chuckled softly: "Are you sure you’re not slapping my face?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Humph!"
CEO Mu Yichen didn’t quite believe her, but since she wasn’t talking, he stopped asking.
It was just the usual stuff, she wasn’t going to break the sky.
If she did break the sky, he would patch it up for her.
But Qin Mu, relieved that he finally stopped pressing her, imdiately hooked his arm and hurried him on, fearing that she couldn’t block him.
The next morning at 5:30, while the two of them were still sleeping, their phones began to ring, both of them at once, one call after another, incessantly coming through.
