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

Chu Mu was about to hang up the phone when Cao Mingjia suddenly called her, "You are Chu Mu, Yi Chen's wife."

The word "Yi Chen" was called very sweetly, and there was a tacit intimacy in the words.

Chu Mu felt a pang of pain in her chest. This was something she and Yi Yichen didn't have. They were harmonious in every way, but they lacked that intimate connection.

She suddenly felt a little flustered, feeling that compared to Cao Minjia, she had no chance of winning. Lin Jiaojiao was right, Cao Minjia, the white moonlight, was too lethal.

"Who are you?" Chu Mu was a little timid at this time. She did not face Cao Mingjia's identity directly, but chose to play dumb. Of course, she also wanted to hear what Cao Mingjia would say.

"I'm sorry for what my sister did and I hope you can forgive her." Cao Minjia said sincerely.

Chu Mu was stunned. This unprecedented apology was completely different from the Cao family's style. Was this a new trick to harm her, or was Cao Mingjia truly pure and innocent?

But since she apologized, Chu Mu also said seriously, "Ms. Cao, forgiveness is too much to ask. Sister Niu and the Cao family have hurt me more than once.

Fortunately, I was lucky and escaped death time and time again. If I had been weaker, I would be the one fighting now. And I don't believe that with the Cao family's style of doing things, they will never stop their encirclement and suppression of me. "

"..." The phone was silent for a while. Cao Minjia said, "I'm really sorry."

"I'll pass your call to Yichen for you. Good night."

As soon as she finished speaking, a busy tone came from the phone. Chu Mu held the phone, her heart aching, but she knew what the important point was.

She approached Yi Yichen in order to fulfill her and her mother's dreams. The competition required concentration, and she couldn't let a phone call disturb her.

'Didi'.

Just as she was about to put her phone down, the message rang again. Yi Yichen's name appeared on the screen, and the message contained only two simple words: "Busy."

Busy?

Chu Mu sneered. Cao Mingjia had just said that he fell asleep, and less than two minutes after he hung up the phone, he said he was busy again.

This "busy" is really subtle.

Chu Mu's chest rose and fell rapidly, and his phone screen rang loudly. [Why are you calling me when you're so busy?]

But when she clicked send, Chu Mu's heart suddenly sank. Her status as a wife was in name only. What right did she have to question Yi Yichen's love life?

Yi Yichen said that their relationship was simply one of interest, and he also said that he only loved her.

There was no need for her to cross the line by relying on this little bit of 'love'.

After his agitated emotions subsided, Chu Mu resent the text he had typed, his words calm, "I called you back." Cao Mingjia answered the phone.

Chu Mu typed out the last few words, but deleted them. He didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't ask, maintaining a proper distance.

Putting his phone away, he caught a glimpse of takeout on the table. The food was already cold. Chu Mu took the takeout tape to throw away the trash, but ran into Lin Jiaojiao outside the laundry room.

She was holding the dried clothes in her hands. Her eyebrows were raised even more, and her eyes fell on the garbage in her hands. "Sister, are you here to take out the garbage?"

"Yeah." Chu Mu was very frugal with his words and walked past her towards the trash can.

Lin Jiaojiao didn't intend to pass by, and deliberately said: "I heard that my uncle was asked by Cao Minjia to take care of Cao Minhui. The two of them look particularly well-matched when standing together. Cao Minjia is my uncle's childhood sweetheart, she is beautiful, and her career is even more outstanding.

Sister, you still have the mind to compete, aren't you anxious? "
