Munni blinked slowly, she only jokes and chats with the staff during breaks, while everyone is very serious during work hours. How could their relationship be too close?
She suddenly thought of that afternoon when Fujino Doxu reminded Xu Yisen, catching her off guard as she collided with his slightly resentful gaze.
She imdiately realized that the guest he was referring to... turned out to be him!
Feigning ignorance of the hint in his words, she answered without hesitation, "To maintain a good relationship between superior and subordinate, naturally they should be a bit closer. Besides, no custor has complained that we’ve affected their dining experience."
"Cough cough." Xu Yisen cleared his throat lightly, feeling a bit awkward as he replied, "When I was dining in the restaurant this afternoon..."
Before he could finish, Munni interrupted him, asking counterpointedly, "Did I and the staff disturb your al?"
Seeing her directly express the thoughts he wanted to convey, Xu Yisen was slightly stunned for a second, and then lightly nodded while gazing into her bright eyes.
"But you’re a partner, not a custor. A partner should support in maintaining good relationships with subordinates."
Xu Yisen felt a bit powerless to refute, after all, he had firmly insisted he was a partner himself.
His deflated expression made Munni find it amusing inside, she suppressed her laughter and asked again, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Oh, yes."
"Huh?"
"This afternoon, I was eating lunch all alone, as a partner, why didn’t you kindly co and accompany ?"
His clear and llow voice carried a hint of grievance, as if Munni had done sothing terribly wrong and hurt him.
"As a partner, you should know it’s tough being a boss these days. To cultivate a good relationship with employees, I have to spend more ti with them."
"Actually, you could have invited to join you for lunch."
"The staff aren’t familiar with you, your sudden presence would make them uncomfortable."
"So that’s precisely why you should invite to join for lunch. That way, we’d naturally beco familiar."
"If we get too familiar and they find out you’re my behind-the-scenes partner, wouldn’t that be bad?"
Xu Yisen didn’t respond anymore because he realized no matter what he said, Munni could always find a retort.
He endured his jealousy, his deanor subtly betraying a hint of grievance, a ’little complainant’ look, causing Munni to finally burst out and chuckle lightly.
Only then did Xu Yisen realize he had been teased by Munni, he lowered his gaze, staring at the happily laughing Munni.
Suddenly taking a step forward, closing the distance between them.
His sudden aura made Munni stop her laughter, instinctively retreating a few steps, only to corner herself against the wall.
Xu Yisen extended his right hand to press against the wall, his black eyes deep as the night, his lips curved in a mischievous smile.
"Aside from being partners, don’t we have another layer of relationship?"
His husky voice resounded gently in the confined space, carrying an undeniable allure that stirred her heart.
Munni steadied herself, curling her lips in disdain, mumbling softly, "Pfft, what value does an ex-husband relationship have?"
"An ex-husband is still a husband, don’t you think?"
As those words fell, he extended the index finger of his left hand, gently lifting Munni’s delicate chin, forcing her to et his gaze.
In his galaxy-like eyes, the elevator’s bright lights were reflected as if stars had fallen and blossod from within, exuding unparalleled beauty.
