Mu Chaoran looked at the file bag and was hesitant to open it.

Mr. Mu added, "I have personally screened them all, and all of them meet the requirements. With your current status, they will all be willing. You can choose carefully. If you like any of them, I will go to the door to propose marriage for you."

Seeing that Mu Chaoran remained silent, Mr. Mu was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?"

"...No." Mu Chaoran shook his head, "I'm just thinking."

"Chao Ran, you have always had a clear plan for your life. Sometimes you have already thought of things that I haven't even thought of and have taken action. Your plan is very thorough. But why haven't you made any moves on something as important as marriage?"

What is Mu Chaoran thinking about?

Could it be that you are still pursuing true love?

True love is so rare and illusory, it sounds ridiculous.

In this upper-class society filled with money and power, love seems even more vulnerable.

Mu Chaoran replied: "Grandpa, I have a plan, and I have... taken action."

Marrying Lin Xige was his plan.

He was so cautious that he didn't even tell the truth to Old Master Mu, and kept it a secret from everyone. Only his confidant Zhao Bin and his brother Xu Shenting knew about it.

"Really?" Mr. Mu was pleasantly surprised and surprised. "What do you think? Tell me?"

"Grandpa will know when the time comes."

"Oh, you're still keeping me in suspense."

Mu Chaoran said, "Hmm," "Keep it secret for now."

"I only thought about your marriage recently. Before that, I was only concerned with developing your personal abilities," said Mr. Mu with some regret. "If I had planned your lifelong event earlier, maybe you would have been able to marry the daughter of the Lin family."

Mu Chaoran raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What a pity, someone else got there first." Mr. Mu sighed repeatedly and patted his thigh, "One step too late. This Miss Lin is already engaged and has a fiancé, and they are in a good relationship."

As he spoke, Mr. Mu thought of something: "Although you have no chance, I still put Miss Lin's information at the top, on the first page. Take a look."

"Okay grandpa."

Mu Chaoran did as he was told, and with his slender fingers he opened the file bag and took out dozens of thick information sheets.

The first one is "Miss Lin" mentioned by Mr. Mu——

Lin Bingxue.

"The Lin family has only one daughter, who is very precious to them, the apple of their eye," said Mr. Mu. "She is the most suitable and the most ideal granddaughter-in-law in my mind."

Mu Chaoran looked quietly at the watch in his hand.

Lin Bingxue's photo is posted in a prominent position in the upper left corner.

As the name suggests, she has fair skin and is quiet and gentle. She is not very good-looking, but she is pretty and delicate.

But soon, Mu Chaoran put it down and looked through other information sheets.

Grandpa is here, so he has to pretend no matter what.

"Got it, Grandpa." Mu Chaoran responded, "I'll take a closer look."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You're a busy man in our Mu family, hahahahaha."

Before leaving, Mr. Mu patted him on the shoulder, then he slowly left the president's office with his crutches.

Mu Chaoran escorted his grandfather into the elevator, and only turned around after the elevator went down.

Back in the office, he frowned as he looked at the stack of documents.

"Boss Mu," Zhao Bin asked cautiously, "How should we deal with this?"

"Put it away and don't let me see it again."

"Yes."

Mu Chaoran waved his hands, his face full of fatigue.

Zhao Bin tactfully left quickly and closed the door.

Mr. Mu must be annoyed right now.

Mu Chaoran tugged at his tie, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the scenery of Haicheng, and stood on the highest floor of the tallest building, but his heart felt empty.

It's so cold at high places.

In fact, he shouldn't be sentimental.

You can have everything except love.

Mu Chaoran understood this principle since he was a child and has always followed it. He didn't expect that after meeting Lin Xige, he would lose miserably.

Mu Chaoran, who always won, was defeated by Lin Xige.

Sometimes he would wonder what it was that he liked about her.

What was it about her that attracted him so deeply?

Is it that she is pure and innocent, kind and gentle? Is it that she has gone through many vicissitudes of life, but still maintains her original intention?

Speaking of which, Mu Chaoran and Lin Xige are the same kind of people.

Their childhoods were equally miserable and lonely, except that Mu Chaoran returned to the Mu family earlier.

And Lin Xige... is still wandering outside.

He lit a cigarette, smoke rose up, but Mu Chaoran barely took more than two puffs.

After the cigarette burned out, he suddenly realized -

He didn't love Lin Xige for anything, and there was nothing about Lin Xige that attracted him.

It was two similar souls that met at that moment.

Love is irrational and illogical.

Once you love, you love. You fall in love without any warning, and then fall deeply into it, and finally you can't extricate yourself.

If love can be controlled, it is not love.

Throwing away the cigarette butt, Mu Chaoran sat at his desk and began to deal with the piled up documents.

.........

Sioux City.

Nine p.m.

Mu Chaoran entered the house on time.

"Honey." He said as he changed his shoes, "I'm back. I worked overtime today and had a lot to do."

Lin Xige ran out of the bedroom and ran happily into his arms.

Same as before.

There is no difference.

Mu Chaoran concealed the sadness in his eyes, bent his head and kissed her on the lips.

No matter how tired he was, as long as he saw her lying obediently in his arms, with her chin slightly raised, looking at him with watery and sparkling eyes, he would think...

Worth the world.

Because of her.

"Will you be working overtime often in the future, husband?" Lin Xige asked, "Can we still have dinner in the cafeteria? Do you want me to bring it to you?"

She smiled and said, "I used to be able to cook in time at noon, and now I can cook dinner even more easily. I can make an extra dish for you."

Mu Chaoran wanted to eat the food she cooked.

However, he was also afraid that he might not be in the office at night, but in the Mu Group.

After thinking for a while, Mu Chaoran replied: "At night, I sometimes need to go out with my boss for social events. If I don't have any social events, I'll send you a message and ask you to bring food over. How about that?"

Lin Xige naturally agreed: "No problem!"

"it is good."

Mu Chaoran exerted a little force with both hands and picked her up.

She hung on him like a koala.

The gap was removed, and they hadn't seen each other for a whole day. The fire was about to ignite...

"There's something in your shirt pocket," Lin Xige asked, "It's hard and long, and it hurts me."

Mu Chaoran replied in a hoarse voice: "Are you sure it's the shirt, not the pants, where there's something hard and long..."

Lin Xige covered his mouth: "Speak seriously."

Then, she quickly reached into his shirt pocket with her other hand and took something out.

A rectangular seal.
