Chapter 1198 It’s Not Easy to Be a White Moonlight
Zhou Xiangxue was fidgeting in the office.
The scene of Shi Li getting in the car and leaving just now keeps appearing in my mind.
He didn't recognize the car, but he felt that the man driving it looked very familiar. When he thought that Shi Li had asked for leave and might meet other men, a feeling of resentment grew in his heart.
The secretary knocked on the door and came in to report his work, but before he could even open his mouth, Zhou Xiangxue glared at him fiercely.
"Get out!"
The secretary choked on the words that were about to come out of his mouth and walked out angrily.
If her current salary wasn't the highest in the same field, she wouldn't be here to endure this humiliation!
After scolding the secretary, Zhou Xiangxue still couldn't calm down. He stood up and walked around the office twice, then returned to the computer and pulled out a few design drafts. Naturally, he called Shi Li.
beep - beep - beep -
Time passed one second after another until no one answered the call and the call was hung up.
Zhou Xiangxue stared at his phone intently, his burning eyes almost burning through the phone. His heart felt like it was being gnawed by tens of thousands of ants at the same time, making it numb and painful.
I walked out of the office irritably and saw Cheng Niannian walking out of the elevator with difficulty, one hand in a plaster cast and the other holding a takeaway bag.
He hesitated for a moment and walked over to help.
Cheng Niannian avoided him with a cold face and forced a smile, "Thank you, Manager Zhou, I can do it myself."
Seeing Cheng Niannian, who used to be obedient to him, suddenly become like this, Zhou Xiangxue became even more furious and sneered repeatedly.
"Okay! You can do whatever you want, but don't ask me for anything in the future!"
Cheng Niannian was frightened by the fierceness emanating from him. Finally, she gritted her teeth and raised her head bravely, "Okay, I'll remember your words!"
She refused to listen, and Zhou Xiangxue became even more annoyed. He stared at Cheng Niannian's back as she walked away. Unable to control himself, he punched the wall next to the elevator.
Shi Li heard the ringing of the cell phone. When she saw the name displayed on the screen, she frowned and pressed the mute button.
This person is simply haunting.
Mu He saw all these actions and couldn't help but ask with concern: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just an annoying manager in the company." Shi Li was too embarrassed to say that the other party had improper thoughts about her, so she just glossed over it.
She had been in the Mu family long enough and was thinking about whether she should be polite and say goodbye, but Aunt Chen suddenly appeared as if she had predicted her thoughts in advance.
"Miss Shi, please stay for dinner tonight. The kitchen has prepared a particularly fresh grouper today. Let the chef show you his cooking skills! We also have local braised pork. Our chef makes it very authentically."
Under such a kind invitation, Shi Li felt it difficult to say goodbye.
Moreover, Mu He also said: "If there is nothing important, why don't you stay for a quick meal? My sister heard that you are here, and she will come back for dinner in the evening."
Uh...even Mu Xinyu was alarmed?
Shi Li felt a little embarrassed and nodded reluctantly in agreement.
Mu He smiled and said to Aunt Chen who was overjoyed, "Ask the kitchen to prepare more Hunan and Sichuan dishes. Shi Li can't eat seafood."
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away!" Aunt Chen was even happier, and her steps were lighter than usual when she walked out.
Shi Li looked at Mu He curiously, "How do you know I can't eat seafood?"
"Are there any other dietary taboos that you noticed during the last event?" Mu He answered calmly, without any intention of taking credit for it.
A warm current slowly flows through my heart.
There is no harm without comparison. After the original owner's mother had her little son, she didn't even care that she would be allergic to seafood, but Mu He remembered it after just one time.
In the evening, Mu Xinyu came back as expected.
Yao Bin also came back with her. Their relationship as a couple was known to everyone, and the people in the Mu family were not surprised by it and treated him as one of their own.
"Hello, Mr. Mu." Shi Li looked at Mu Xinyu, still a little nervous. The situation was different now, she was in someone else's house, and they had that conversation before, which was really subtle.
Mu Xinyu smiled and nodded at her, "Hello, long time no see."
Such a gentle and not excessive attitude made Shi Li slowly breathe a sigh of relief, and then looked at Yao Bin who was standing next to her.
"Hello, Mr. Yao."
"Good evening, Miss Shi." Yao Bin's smile was exactly the same as Mu Xinyu's. He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose while speaking, looking very gentle and graceful.
After exchanging greetings, everyone went to the restaurant together.
Yao Bin walked quietly at the end, looking at the backs of Mu He and Shi Li, and gave a meaningful smile.
