It is possible to walk through a deep garden among thousands of flowers without getting a single leaf on you.

"Is that so..." Lin Xige smiled, "Anyone who is worthy of Mr. Xu must be very outstanding."

"Wife, please concentrate on eating."

Mu Chaoran was thinking about how to divert her attention from watching the news.

I don’t know what Xu Shenting will say. If he reveals any clues, it will be bad.

Xu Shenting has always been the one dealing with the media.

Mu Chaoran refused all kinds of interviews and news programs. He did not attend, show his face or appear on camera. He maintained a high degree of mystery and zero exposure rate.

But for such a large company like Mu Group, there must be a senior management to maintain good relations with the media, so...

This task fell on Xu Shenting.

He is eloquent and humorous, and is very suitable for dealing with the media and the public, and performs well.

Lin Xige bit her chopsticks and suddenly shifted her gaze from the TV to Mu Chaoran's face.

The two people's eyes met.

Mu Chaoran's Adam's apple rolled, but he said nothing.

"Hubby," Lin Xige seemed to have thought of something, "Mr. Xu is obviously the boss of your construction site, but why did the news say... he is the vice president of the Mu Group?"

She muttered again: "The news can't be wrong. This is a financial channel known for its rigor. Besides, how could they get Mr. Xu's identity and position wrong? This is the most basic thing."

Mu Chaoran's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.

But he quickly clenched his fist again and replied calmly, "Yes, Mr. Xu is the vice president of the Mu Group, that's right."

"Then why is he the big boss of your construction site?"

Mu Chaoran ate his meal leisurely and said slowly: "A person like Mr. Xu naturally has multiple positions. He is the vice president of the group, but privately, he also has several companies of his own. The scale is definitely not comparable to that of the Mu Group, but they are all his personal assets. It is also commonly known as... side business."

"sideline?"

"Yes, the project at our construction site is under the control of Mr. Xu's own company. Mr. Xu usually manages the daily affairs of the Mu Group, and in his free time, he handles the affairs of his private company."

Lin Xige seemed to understand but not quite.

She tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Compared to the main business, Mr. Xu cares more about the side business, because all the income goes into his pocket. But Mr. Xu is very busy and can't manage too many projects, so he has to cultivate confidants and capable assistants. And you are the person promoted by Mr. Xu in Su City."

"Yes." Mu Chaoran nodded repeatedly, "My wife is smart."

"No wonder someone is targeting you, because if you perform well and everything goes well, it is very likely that many of Mr. Xu's personal business projects will be handed over to you, and your power and position will become greater and greater..."

"Ah."

Lin Xige looked at him: "It will get busier and busier."

The time he spends at home and with her will be reduced accordingly.

"I will balance work and life." Mu Chaoran said, "Wife, if you don't want me to be busy with my career, I will refuse Mr. Xu's request..."

Before he could finish, Lin Xige interrupted him immediately: "No, you have to work hard and make money to support the family. We still have mortgages, renovation loans, car purchases at the end of the year, and pregnancy preparations next year. Everything requires money. I also promised in front of Mr. Xu that I would support your career."

He sighed and said, "Wife, you can be a little selfish."

She selfishly occupied him, selfishly occupied his time and energy, and he was willing to submit to her.

Mu Chaoran always wanted her to love him more and stick to him more, like every little girl who falls in love.

But she didn't.

Therefore, Mu Chaoran does not have much sense of security.

Because he couldn't feel that Lin Xige had too much love for him, and his love for Lin Xige was already full and beyond his imagination.

Lin Xige put down her bowl and chopsticks with a smile, pinching his face with both hands: "If love is long-lasting, why should we be together day and night? We still have a lifetime to spend together, and we will be together for many years to come, so why bother about these few minutes and seconds now."

No one has ever pinched Mu Chaoran's face like this.

However, he did not feel disgusted.

"Now and in the future, I want to be with you." Mu Chaoran said, "The more minutes and seconds we spend together, the more memories we will have of each other."

"But we all have to go to work and earn money," Lin Xige blinked. "Although it is said that love is enough to satisfy one's hunger, if we really only drink water..."

"Then how can I bear to let you starve?"

She chuckled and pretended to withdraw her hand.

Mu Chaoran lowered his head and kissed her, holding her lips: "You are the first person to pinch my face, you have to take responsibility."

"Oh, eating..."

Mu Chaoran didn't care about all this. He kissed her and walked towards the sofa with his arm around her. Out of the corner of his eye, he even found the remote control and changed the TV channel.

Lin Xige can’t be allowed to continue watching Xu Shenting’s interview.

Danger is like a time bomb, and you never know when it will explode.

But Mu Chaoran doesn't want to explode yet.

He has to suppress all his impulses.

In the next ten days or so, Mu Chaoran picked up and dropped off Lin Xige to and from get off work every day, very punctually.

He and she went shopping for groceries and cooking together, and in the evening they took walks and chatted in the park downstairs, like a couple in love, inseparable.

Lin Xige's complexion improved visibly.

She has a rosy complexion, delicate skin and bright eyes. Anyone with a discerning eye can see how happy she is.

The shadow and nightmare brought to her by the kidnapping gradually dissipated.

Song Yupan looked at her changes and didn't say anything, just a few teasing remarks at most.

Until one day at noon, during lunch break, Song Yupan handed a file bag to Lin Xige.

"Open it and take a look."

"What is this?" Lin Xige asked as she unpacked it. "Is this work information?"

Song Yupan said seriously: "You will know when you see it."

Lin Xige lowered his head, expressionless, and blinked his eyes gently.

There are several photos, printed press releases, personal information, etc.

Lin Xige recognized the person in the photo at a glance.

Xu Shenting.

"Isn't this Mr. Xu?" Lin Xige said, "My husband's boss."

"Yes, take a look at his true identity and position."

"The vice president of Mu Group." Lin Xige blurted out, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Song Yupan stared at her with eyes wide open in disbelief, and tapped the file bag heavily with her finger: "The vice president of Mu Group, the right-hand man of the mysterious President Mu, has now become Mu Chaoran's boss... Xige, can't you see it? Are you still deceiving yourself?"

"This, this, and these are all the information I found out about Xu Shenting these days."
