"Hey, sis... don’t be impulsive! If you really want to raise sothing, I can have soone find you a golden retriever to raise when I get back."
Munni glanced at him sidelong without responding, but her mind was turning over how to connect with Zeng Peijing later.
Seeing she wasn’t continuing the topic, Liang Jiuchen silently sighed in relief and quickly changed the subject.
Throughout the al, Liang Jiuchen’s nerves were tense, fearing Munni would bring up the topic of keeping a toy boy again.
After they finished eating, Liang Jiuchen found an excuse to leave first. As soon as he left the restaurant, he hurriedly called Xu Yisen and tattled on Munni.
Upon hearing that Munni wanted to keep a toy boy, Xu Yisen just calmly said, "Hmm, I know," and then hung up the phone.
Liang Jiuchen stared at the phone that was hung up for a long ti without processing. Just like that? He knows? And then what? Isn’t he supposed to go ballistic? If Munni keeps a toy boy, that would be a slap in the face to Xu Yisen, her ex-husband! How can he be so calm? What’s going on?!
What he didn’t know was that after hanging up, Xu Yisen imdiately instructed Tang Haoliang to arrange a dinner with Zeng Peijing that night and select a few outstanding designers to divert Munni’s attention to the upcoming restaurant renovation.

The headquarters of Fanshu Group stood in the most bustling area of G City’s city center, with branches spread across multiple cities in the country. The group’s business scope included comrcial real estate, luxury hotels, chain departnt stores, cultural tourism, film production, and cultural entertainnt.
Munni parked the car at the entrance of the headquarters. A doorman respectfully stepped forward to open the car door for her. After softly saying thank you, she picked up the handbag from the passenger seat and gracefully got out of the car, striding into the headquarters.
This was her first ti returning to the headquarters nearly four months after divorcing Xu Yisen. As soon as she entered the lobby, several familiar receptionists slightly bowed and greeted her warmly, "Miss Qin, good morning."
"Morning."
"Secretary Tang asked to let you know to wait a mont. He will escort you to the eting room."
One of the receptionists conveyed Tang Haoliang’s words in a gentle tone.
Munni slightly raised an eyebrow but hadn’t answered when a voice with a smile sounded next to her ear, "Why trouble Secretary Tang? I’ll take Miss Qin up. We’re going the sa way anyway."
"Uncle Liu, hello."
The speaker was Liu RanYe, the cousin of Xu Yisen’s father, which made him Xu Yisen’s uncle.
"Look at you, girl. You’ve beco so distant with your uncle just because you divorced Yisen."
Munni thought, "I wasn’t that close to you when I was married to Xu Yisen, was I?"
Although she felt dissatisfied with Liu RanYe’s loaded words, she still smiled at him without changing expression, "You overstate it."
"Co on, I’ll go up with you," he said, extending a hand to warmly wrap around Munni’s shoulder.
Munni naturally saw his intention. With a light laugh, she quickly started walking, easily sidestepping his outstretched hand.
Liu RanYe’s hand was still suspended in mid-air, while Munni leisurely strolled on ahead. He could only awkwardly chuckle, withdrawing his hand to slip it into the pocket of his suit pants.
"Miss Qin, what happened between you and Yisen? Why did you suddenly divorce?"
"Thank you for your concern, but this is a private matter between Yisen and ."
"You, girl, is there anything you can’t tell your uncle? Did Yisen bully you? If so, you can tell your uncle, and he will surely stand up for you."
Munni stood in the elevator, glancing at the numbers marking the floor changes, wishing the elevator would move faster so she could get rid of this odd Liu
