"No problem!"
Zhao Huai said dryly, his face devoid of any expression.
"You don’t look like there’s nothing wrong!"
"Ah! It’s a long story!"
Seeing that Qiao Yi noticed his unhappiness, Zhao Huai didn’t hide it anymore.
Xi ng was making a phone call with a client. Before she could look up, she heard two n talking and walking toward her.
Of course, they weren’t coming for her but for the person in the office next door.
"Guess what stupid thing this kid did?"
Qiao Yi bent over across her desk and asked her at eye level.
Xi ng hung up the phone and looked up at Zhao Huai, who was shaking his head helplessly, and she frowned thoughtfully: "Can’t guess! Did he upset his girlfriend?"
"Though you didn’t guess the action, you guessed the target of anger, which is pretty impressive!"
Qiao Yi told her, then leaned over and gave her a big kiss on the forehead.
"What the hell!"
Zhao Huai felt his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows.
"I’ll go with him to find Mu Yichen for so tea!"
"Aren’t you just going to make brew it for you?"
Even after being kissed suddenly, Xi ng felt the need to speak the truth.
"Thanks for your hard work, wife!"
Qiao Yi leaned in for another kiss, but Xi ng jumped up from her chair and ran.
Qiao Yi straightened up, unable to suppress a belly laugh, while Zhao Huai, standing by, couldn’t help but sigh and shake his head, then turned to knock on Mu Yichen’s door.
Mu Yichen was looking at so docunts. When he heard the knock, he guessed it was them, so he didn’t even look up.
"Brother Chen, I want to report that Old Qiao is flirting with your secretary outside your office."
Once inside, Zhao Huai said to him.
"Let him flirt!"
Mu Yichen replied flatly, quickly finishing the docunts and signing them, then noticed Qiao Yi entering as well.
"When did Old Qiao beco so cheesy?"
Zhao Huai made his way to the sofa, sat down, and asked as he hugged the arms of the sofa. He hadn’t realized that Qiao Yi and Xi ng could be so mushy even at work—things weren’t like this before.
"We’re just a loving couple, getting more and more affectionate! As an unmarried young man, you wouldn’t understand. But when are you planning to propose to your girlfriend? We brothers can be your witnesses, make it grand. Won need to feel that vanity satisfied, plus with all of us there, only Qin Mu needs to go from her side. When you’ve had enough, we brothers can stand by you and act as if you never proposed, since Qin Mu couldn’t argue with our Brother Chen anyway."
Qiao Yi ntioned as he sat down.
Mu Yichen glanced at Qiao Yi, wondering where he got such terrible ideas. If Jiang Zhiyuan were here, those two would surely hit it off.
"I don’t think so. If I’m going to be the man by Chen Xiaoi’s side, then if I dare to wrong her in the future, not even ten Brother Chens can stop Qin Mu from chopping with a knife."
Zhao Huai looked up at the ceiling, feeling desolate as he thought about the recent phone call.
Qin Mu’s temperant wouldn’t allow Xiaoi to suffer grievances without doing anything. She just might not care about when they get married.
"I believe that!"
Having signed the last docunt, Mu Yichen set down the pen, stood up, and sat on a solo sofa, habitually crossing his legs: "So why do you look like you’ve been beaten up?"
"This kid made Chen Xiaoi propose to him and ended up making her cry, then had her confess to your wife."
Qiao Yi briefly explained to Mu Yichen what he heard Zhao Huai say in the elevator.
Mu Yichen was speechless montarily but said nothing.
He suddenly rembered that Chen Xiaoi was indeed supposed to propose initially, but...
He promised Qin Mu not to tell Zhao Huai, so now, since Qin Mu hasn’t broken her promise, Mu Yichen, as a man, couldn’t let her down either.
"Otherwise, should I propose tonight?"
Zhao Huai suddenly asked, looking at his brothers with slightly helpless eyes.
Mu Yichen and Qiao Yi both looked at him: "The important thing is whether she’ll see you tonight."
"Yeah, don’t let our preparations go to waste or end up like when Zhiyuan proposed, where we were all ready, but his girlfriend wasn’t prepared. We brothers have no taboos between us, but can you handle it in your heart? Rember how Jiang Zhiyuan got drunk out of his mind that night?"
Qiao Yi reminded him.
Zhao Huai thought about it and realized tonight might indeed not be a good ti.
"I’ll call her first and confirm!"
Zhao Huai said, pulling out his phone.
Xi ng prepared the tea and brought it in for them. As she set it down and was about to leave, Qiao Yi grabbed her hand: "Let’s witness this important mont together!"
Xi ng didn’t know what important mont it was but stayed anyway.
"She’s not answering!"
After waiting for a long ti, Zhao Huai still couldn’t get a response on the other end of the line, feeling a bit anxious, he told them.
"If you upset a girl, it’s best to apologize quickly and make peace!"
Xi ng, as a woman, earnestly reminded them. Her soft words evoked a thoughtful look in the three n present.
"Alright, you all leave, I need to make a call too!"
President Mu said in a deep voice.
