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

"Chu Mu is my secretary, that's for sure." Yi Yichen admitted it, and then said calmly, "But she is also my wife."

"Uncle, you're talking nonsense!" Yi Fengteng felt a little aggrieved and argued, "How could you possibly fall in love with such a scheming woman?"

Yi Yichen was clearly displeased when he heard this. Being a wife was just a title to Yi Yichen, and bringing Chu Mu back today was just to please the old man.

But after Yi Fengteng and Lin Jiaojiao's disturbance, the atmosphere became tense. He wasn't in a good mood at all because he hadn't achieved his goal.

He had a cold face, intimidating without even getting angry: "Do you really want me to prove it to you with my marriage certificate?"

Seeing Yi Yichen's anger, no one at the table dared to speak. Even Old Master Yi's expression was evasive for a moment.

Zhang Tingyu quickly apologized with a smile, "Uncle, my Feng Teng didn't mean that."

"Then what does he mean?" Yi Yichen gave him a sharp look.

The powerful aura pressed down on her, and Zhang Tingyu almost lost her balance. She didn't dare to speak, and carefully sat back in her seat.

The originally relaxing and joyful dinner fell into a depressing and dull atmosphere. Wen Zhao, the elder sister-in-law who had been neutral towards Lin Jiaojiao before, also became dissatisfied with her because of this incident.

How could the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family be so tactless?

Everyone in the Yi family was respectful and obedient to Yi Yichen. As a junior, he didn't lower his attitude and instead started crying and trying to sow discord.

Lin Jiaojiao was quite pleased. Even if Yi Yichen suppressed the matter, the Yi family would still harbor resentment towards Chu Mu. Who would like a daughter-in-law who lied?

After all this commotion, no one had any interest in eating. Dinner ended hastily and everyone moved to the back garden.

Yi Yichen and his two other brothers accompanied Grandpa Yi to play golf.

Chu Mu and his two sisters-in-law sat around a small table, drinking tea and chatting. The two sisters-in-law talked about the trivialities of life. Although there were some polite words, they were generally sincere and happy.

During this time, the tea became weak. Chu Mu got up and went to the kitchen to ask the servants to replace the tea.

I saw Lin Jiaojiao and Yi Fengteng in the corridor.

Lin Jiaojiao leaned in Yi Fengteng's arms with tears in her eyes, saying something. Yi Fengteng's face was full of heartache, and he comforted her softly.

Chu Mu took a glance and didn't stop.

Suddenly, Yi Fengteng called out to her in a stern voice: "Chu Mu, stop right there."

Chu Mu stood still. Yi Fengteng ran over angrily, pointed at her nose, and scolded her, "Chu Mu, why are you lying? You are obviously my uncle's secretary, why did you say you were my uncle's wife at the family dinner?"

Lin Jiaojiao, who had been crying, immediately stopped crying after hearing these words. She listened attentively, perhaps wanting to know what happened today even more than Yi Fengteng.

"Boss Yi asked me to come here. You can ask him about the details." Chu Mu insisted on not knowing anything and would not reveal any more information.

"So you are not my uncle's wife at all." Yi Fengteng kept talking about this.

Lin Jiaojiao came forward, wiped away her dried tears, and said, "Sister, go to the backyard now and explain the situation. Grandpa and Grandma won't blame you. If it gets exposed later, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape responsibility.

I'm doing this for my sister's own good. Don't get yourself into trouble. You have to know that Yi's Jewelry is a leader in the industry. If they investigate, what will happen to your studio in the future?"

Not a single word of threat was mentioned, but every sentence was a threat. Lin Jiaojiao was clearly saying that if she didn't reveal her identity as a secretary today, Yi Jewelry would ban her.

Chu Mu chuckled in his heart, but his face remained calm as he simply replied, "I don't understand what my sister is saying."

"Chu Mu, stop playing dumb. Jiaojiao is doing this for your own good." Yi Fengteng said sternly.

For her own good?

Chu Mu looked at Lin Jiaojiao, only to see a hint of cruelty hidden beneath her gentle smile. Her attempt to get her to explain was fake, but her real intention was to destroy the well-educated and well-mannered image Chu Mu had just established in front of the Yi family.

"If President Yi asks me to go, I will go." Chu Mu said.

Yi Fengteng was embarrassed for a while, then said, "Okay, I'll go tell my uncle right away."
