A man who is hard to find even with a lantern must have some beautiful women around him.

normal.

As long as, in the end, she, Han Jingjing, is the legitimate Mrs. Mu, that's enough.

As for the rest, Han Jingjing could turn a blind eye.

Besides, she and Mu Chaoran are not even boyfriend and girlfriend now, they haven't confirmed their relationship, let alone been engaged. He is still single, so it is understandable that he wants a woman to accompany him and relieve his boredom.

However, all this was just Han Jingjing's imagination.

Actually...

Mu Chaoran just wanted to fool Mr. Mu.

The second call was made by Mu Chaoran to the captain of the bodyguard team.

"Keep a close eye on Han Jingjing. Also, assign more people to stay near the restaurant," Mu Chaoran gave orders in an orderly manner. "First reserve the place, then clear it. No one is allowed to secretly take photos or record, and no photos are allowed to be circulated."

"Understood, President Mu. Don't worry, we will definitely keep it confidential."

"Get it done right away!"

"Yes, Mr. Mu."

After hanging up the phone, Mu Chaoran's brows were still furrowed.

As Xu Shenting said, after telling a lie, you have to cover it up with countless lies.

If he had come clean when his grandfather was matchmaking for him in the beginning... then there wouldn't be so much trouble now.

But now, it has come to this, Mu Chaoran can only try his best to hold on.

No chaos, absolutely not.

The third call was made by Mu Chaoran to Lin Xige.

"Wife."

"Honey, are you done with your work?" Lin Xige's voice came, temporarily soothing Mu Chaoran's irritable mood.

"No, I'll call you when I have time." Mu Chaoran said, "I have a very important meeting later, and I'm required to put my phone on silent mode. I don't know when it will end, so by then, I won't be able to reply to your message, and I won't be able to contact you."

"It's so tiring. You're still having meetings at night."

"Yeah, but it'll be almost done after tonight," he whispered, "I can be back tomorrow."

Lin Xige said, "Okay, don't be too tired, go to bed early."

Mu Chaoran held the phone, reluctant to hang up.

I want to hear more of her voice.

Even if she doesn't say anything, it would be good as long as I can hear her movements on the other end.

When talking to others, Mu Chaoran always hangs up right after he finishes speaking, without any dragging of words.

To her, I just want to waste time and chat on the phone for a long time.

"I miss you, my wife." Mu Chaoran sighed, "I can't sleep well without you."

I always thought that Mu Chaoran felt that Lin Xige needed him more.

Because she was afraid of the dark and didn't dare to sleep alone, and she was a girl, very fragile.

Now it seems that, in fact, it is Mu Chaoran who needs Lin Xige more.

He can't live without her, and he can't live without her.

Mu Chaoran can no longer go back to his life alone, and he can't even imagine what he would do if Lin Xige is not around in the future.

Lin Xige responded to him: "I miss you too. But we will see each other tomorrow. Husband, go and get busy. I'm drawing the design. I still have a little bit to do. After I finish, I will go to wash up and go to bed. I won't disturb you later, just go to bed. Good night."

"Good night."

Mu Chaoran held the phone to his ear and didn't put it down until Lin Xige hung up.

It's exactly eight o'clock.

Everyone was seated in the private room of the high-end restaurant by the river.

Mr. Mu sat in the main seat, with the two elders of the Han family on his left, and Mu Chaoran and Han Jingjing on his right.

Although this marriage was strongly advocated by Old Man Mu and the Mu family was seeking to marry the daughter of the Han family, and it seemed that Mu Chaoran was pursuing Han Jingjing, but in fact, there was still a gap in status between the Mu family and the Han family.

The Mu family is the largest and most powerful family in Jiangcheng.

The Han family can only be considered upper-middle class.

It’s just that Mu Chaoran’s mother was of a poor background and was an illegitimate child, so Han Jingjing’s status as a rich daughter was needed to fill this gap.

Therefore, in front of Mr. Mu, Mr. Han and Mrs. Han were both polite and respectful.

If this marriage can be accomplished, it will be good for Mu Chaoran, and for the Han family, it will be a meteoric rise and prosperity.

"Mr. Mu, it is truly a blessing for our family that you can appreciate our Jingjing," Mr. Han said, raising his glass. "I'll toast to you first. I'll drink it. You can do as you please."

Mrs. Han smiled as she looked at her daughter and then at her future son-in-law.

The more I look at it, the more satisfied I am, and the more I see it looks like a perfect match.

I didn't expect that my family could marry Mr. Mu. We are so lucky.

If it weren’t for President Mu’s background, this marriage would probably never have fallen into the hands of the Han family.

Han Jingjing sat next to Mu Chaoran, feeling elated.

So what if President Mu loves Lin Xige again?

In the end, Mr. Mu still wanted to discuss marriage with her.

And what about Lin Xige? She couldn't stand the light of day, let alone show up on the stage.

Lin Xige would never dream of having dinner with Grandpa Mu in her lifetime.

"Grandpa Mu, I toast to you too." Han Jingjing picked up the wine glass. "Every time I see you, I feel that you are particularly kind and amiable, not at all like what people outside say you are."

Mr. Mu smiled and said, "Oh? What did those people say about me?"

"It doesn't matter, it's all nonsense and rumors. You and President Mu are both very good to me," Han Jingjing said sweetly, "When I think about marrying into the Mu family in the future, having such an excellent husband and a grandfather who loves me so much, it's like I saved the galaxy in my previous life, and I have such a blessing in this life."

As she spoke, she looked at Mu Chaoran and gently touched his shoulder: "Mr. Mu, isn't that right?"

How could Mu Chaoran answer?

Yes?

Doesn't that mean he admits that he and Han Jingjing are a couple and are planning to get married?

No?

Grandpa is sitting here, how can he offend grandpa?

Han Jingjing set a trap for him on purpose.

She asked him to acknowledge his relationship with her in front of the elders.

It has always been Mu Chaoran who schemed against others. When will it be someone else's turn to set a trap for Mu Chaoran?

Han Jingjing was looking forward to Mu Chaoran's answer.

Because she was so sure, he could only say "yes".

What a pity, what a pity, Han Jingjing’s skills are still too shallow.

In front of Mu Chaoran, her tricks were too childish.

Mu Chaoran didn't answer at all, avoiding the topic, and reached out to take her wine glass: "Don't drink so late, it's not good for your health. I'll drink this glass for you."

He tilted his head back and drank it in one gulp.

Then, he poured another glass of wine: "This glass of wine is for Mr. Han and Madam. I'm really sorry for asking you out for dinner and meeting at the last minute. I'm sorry for being inconsiderate. But I'm about to take office, and I have a lot of things to do but little time. I happen to be free tonight, so I decided to have dinner at eight o'clock. Please forgive me for any inconvenience."
