The CEO's husband didn't come home every night, and Secretary Chu was angry
Chapter 164: Could it be that he wants her to take over his position?
Sister-in-law Wen Zhao selected a few mahjong tiles and placed consecutive numbers together. She also took a pair of mahjong tiles and placed them next to each other. She said to Chu Mu, "Three of a kind, four of a kind, five of a kind, plus a pair of bamboo, that's a winning hand. Even without a straight of three, four, or five, a single pair is still a good win."
"Sister-in-law, do you understand?"
Although Chu Mu didn't know how to play mahjong, he had a basic understanding of the game and said, "Come on."
Zhang Tingyu was deliberately trying to embarrass her, but she wasn't one to shy away from trouble. At the poker table, no one could predict who would ultimately win.
Yi Yichen, who was drinking tea with the old man, turned around and glanced at Chu Mu. Seeing that she looked quite relaxed, he did not step forward to show concern. Instead, he said to the servants waiting beside him, "Go and prepare some snacks for the ladies. Don't use black sesame fillings for the mooncakes. Bring more Yunnan ham mooncakes.
For tea, prepare green tea, not black tea.”
"Yes, Third Young Master."
After a while, each servant brought in a half-meter coffee table, followed by several servants carrying cakes and tea.
There is a coffee table next to each person at the table, on which is placed a set of snacks.
"Madam San, please enjoy your tea and snacks." The servant said respectfully.
Chu Mu looked at her and said with a polite smile, "Thank you."
Lin Jiaojiao, who kept Zhang Tingyu's instructions in mind, was afraid of being embarrassed in front of the Yi family like last time, so she also imitated Chu Mu and smiled and thanked him.
At this time, Zhang Tingyu glanced at the tea on the tea table and asked, "Why is it not black tea?"
The servant turned around and said calmly, "Second Young Madam, the green tea was prepared by the Third Young Master."
Chu Mu was slightly stunned. She liked drinking green tea. Could it be that Yi Yichen specially asked her to prepare it?
She looked down at the cakes on the coffee table. There were moon cakes, mung bean cakes, and Mala cakes...
Suddenly, she saw a mooncake with ham that was about to be cut into four pieces. Her heart skipped a beat and she looked at Yi Yichen. He had one hand in his pocket, chatting with his father and brothers, a faint polite smile on his face.
As if he had noticed his gaze, he turned around and met Chu Mu's eyes.
Under the beautiful moonlight, the autumn breeze caressed Chu Mu's chest, and he felt soft, but his face was calm.
She picked up a piece of Yuntiao mooncake and put it in her mouth, saying to the three people at the table, "This Yuntiao mooncake is quite good."
Yi Yichen heard this and grinned.
she likes!
Wen Zhao took a bite, chewed it slowly and said, "It's really good, sweet and salty."
Pushing the mahjong, Wen Zhao continued, "In previous years, our family prepared traditional Cantonese mooncakes. Today, we're doing something different and even got Yuncheng mooncakes."
After saying that, Lin Jiaojiao glanced at Chu Mu out of the corner of her eye. Having grown up with her, she naturally knew that Chu Mu liked to eat this kind of mooncake.
"This was specifically instructed by the Third Young Master before the Mid-Autumn Festival. He said that every year they make Cantonese mooncakes, which taste bland. He wanted to prepare a few more so that everyone can change their taste." The servant explained.
Wen Zhao glanced at Chu Mu meaningfully and sighed, "I'm afraid this isn't just to change everyone's taste, but was prepared specifically for this person in front of me."
Chu Mu smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Tingyu raised his eyes and looked at Chu Mu with a mysterious look.
What is the relationship between Chu Mu and Yi Yichen? Bringing a family dinner for family affection is understandable, after all, the sudden change of people this time made the old man unhappy.
But considering the situation, it is somewhat unreasonable to say that they are just in a superior-subordinate relationship.
Could it be that he wants her to take over his position?
Anyway, no one has ever seen the real Mrs. Yi, and Mr. and Mrs. Yi like Chu Mu, so they just go with the flow and make her their legal wife?
It seems that she really underestimated Chu Mu's position in Yi Yichen's heart.
She picked up the tea and took a sip. It was refreshing, slightly bitter but sweet.
This tea was probably specially prepared for her.
While he was complaining in his heart, the first round of the game had already begun.
She held the cards in her hand and glanced at Lin Jiaojiao from the corner of her eye. Her face was rosy, and her features were slightly raised, showing a hint of pride.
Zhang Tingyu looked calm on the surface, but a trace of contempt rose in his heart. He was about to lose everything, yet he was still being complacent.
What an idiot.
