The CEO's husband didn't come home every night, and Secretary Chu was angry

Chu Mu walked to the side, then slowly opened his mouth with a cold look in his eyes: "Where is Lin Ji?"

Lin Jiaojiao's expression turned cold. Sure enough, she hadn't given up investigating what happened back then. But what happened back then must never be known to anyone.

She was still too careless, letting Lin Ji show up too early. She didn't know how he was doing in Aocheng now, but she must not cause any trouble for her.

"Sister, if I knew where Lin Ji was, why wouldn't I tell you?" Lin Jiaojiao returned to her normal tone, a hint of coldness in her words, "I'm just like you. I also want to avenge Sister Manman."

"Lin Jiaojiao, I hope things are as you said." Chu Mu hung up the phone coldly.

Then she called Yi Yichen.

The call was quickly connected, and his calm voice came from inside, "It's a little after six in the afternoon. Secretary Chu, have you had time to greet the boss?"

Chu Mu smiled, his tone much softer than before, "Lin Jiaojiao came to see me."

She continued, "There's really no need to bother her anymore. She hit me, and I hit her back. In a way, we're even now."

"I don't agree with this way of clearing both sides. The punishment must be painful enough to put an end to future troubles." Yi Yichen spoke coldly. Not giving the enemy any chance has always been his principle.

"..." Maybe it was just as Yi Yichen said, she had to hit Lin Jiaojiao with one strike to make her disappear from her life forever.

Concentrating, she smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yi, for giving me this opportunity."

Yi Yichen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but said unconvincedly: "I don't accept verbal thanks. If my memory serves me right, this is the second time you've thanked me. A birthday gift should be more expensive."

Chu Mu helplessly held her forehead. Sure enough, every move this man made was profitable. She said, "If Mr. Yi could be more selfless someday, I might consider upgrading your birthday present."

"The words 'selfless dedication' don't belong in my vocabulary," Yi Yichen emphasized, "I'm a businessman!"

Very good!

As expected, it's Yi Yichen, but...

"Mr. Yi, don't make yourself sound so profit-driven. Sometimes, you still have some warmth." Chu Mu said, with a joking tone but a hint of seriousness.

"Can I understand this as Secretary Chu praising me?"

"Of course." Chu Mu affirmed.

There were bursts of laughter coming from the phone, and she couldn't help but laugh along.

On the lawn not far away, Chen Shaoting looked at Chu Mu's back, her thin shoulders swaying slightly, and her crisp laughter could be heard from time to time.

His eyes darkened slightly, and a sense of loss gradually rose in his heart.

If he had met Chu Mu earlier, would the situation be different?

He lowered his head, somewhat angry at his own indecision.

Qi Man, who was standing by, saw this and bent down to look at him carefully. Her eyes were bright and clear. She asked casually, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Why are you suddenly so listless?"

Chen Shaoting came back to his senses, smiled slightly, and answered the question somewhat irrelevantly: "The sun is warm."

He looked up at the sky. The sun was setting, and the sky was covered with layers of yellow and orange clouds. Qi Man followed his gaze and gently rested her head on his shoulder.

Chen Shaoting looked down at her and did not refuse.

Chu Mu finished the call and turned around just in time to see this scene.

The two of them snuggled up on a long chair, the dusk falling on their shoulders, shrouded in a circle of romantic light. The setting sun gradually lengthened their shadows, creating an endlessly romantic atmosphere.

Chu Mu smiled knowingly and left quietly.

This moment was too beautiful to be ruined.

The clouds in the sky are colorful and beautiful.

She took out her phone, clicked a picture, and sent it to Yi Yichen with the caption:

[Today's beautiful scenery is selflessly dedicated to you (smile).]

After sending it, she was surprised to find that she had shared a moment of happiness with him. This did not seem to be a good omen for their relationship.

But since it has already been sent, there is no need to play hard to get and withdraw it.

Yi Yichen smiled sweetly after receiving the WeChat message.

The sky in the photo was magnificent. He stood up, walked to the window, and looked up at the sky. The setting sun and the colorful sunset glow were extremely beautiful.

The same sky, the same scenery...

He turned on his camera, took a picture of the sky and sent it over with the caption:

[It is impolite to come without returning the favor.]

The phone dinged, and Chu Mu looked at Yi Yichen's WeChat message and smiled faintly.
