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

Yi Fengteng went to the backyard aggressively, still shouting, "Uncle!"

Zhang Tingyu, who had come to look for Chu Mu, heard this and saw his face full of resentment. She was afraid he was going to cause trouble for Yi Yichen, so she quickly stopped him and dragged him towards the deserted back garden.

After a while, Zhang Tingyu didn't know what to say, only to hear Yi Fengteng shouting: "Jiaojiao is not that kind of person!"

Afterwards, a fierce argument broke out between the two. Chu Mu couldn't hear clearly what they were arguing about, only fragmentary key words came out.

It has something to do with the cold reception Lin Jiaojiao received at the family dinner today.

Hearing this, the originally well-behaved Lin Jiaojiao's eyes immediately became fierce. She sneered: "Sister is such a good actress, she can even fool old men and old ladies."

"I'm not as good at acting as you are." Chu Mu was too lazy to pretend with her: "What good will it do you to instigate Yi Fengteng to go against Yi Yichen?"

"I don't understand what my sister is saying."

"Yi Fengteng is Zhang Tingyu's only son. Even though he was willful and caused a lot of trouble, Zhang Tingyu never scolded him. But ever since you got together with her, Yi Fengteng has been picking on Zhang Tingyu time and time again.

You say this isn't your masterpiece?"

"So what?" Seeing that she couldn't hide it from Chu Mu, Lin Jiaojiao simply admitted, "It's her fault for not letting me in and even bringing up the matter of Lin Chusheng's detention."

"I just want Zhang Tingyu to know that if he doesn't let me in, it will be his son's unfilial behavior."

"Blood is thicker than water." Chu Mu reminded.

Lin Jiaojiao sneered, "Blood is thicker than water? Only a fool would believe such nonsense as 'blood is thicker than water'.

Isn't Lin Chusheng your biological father? What's he like now? He would rather go to jail to protect us, mother and daughter. A man can be cruel to anyone for a woman, including his own mother.

Your father neglected Aunt Chu for years because of my mother. That's why Aunt Chu got breast cancer. This is what you call blood is thicker than water.

As soon as these words came out, Chu Mu's pupils suddenly shrank, and his sharp gaze fell on Lin Jiaojiao's face.

The Chu family had no history of cancer, and her mother's breast cancer had come on suddenly. She had considered it might be related to her father, but she had been abroad for many years and had no way to verify it.

Being confirmed by Lin Jiaojiao herself today, she felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife.

"What do you mean?" Chu Mu took a step closer.

The overwhelming aura pressed down on Lin Jiaojiao, and her legs and feet felt slightly weak. But seeing Chu Mu's temper losing control, she felt an inexplicable excitement rising up. She deliberately teased him, "You're very angry, right? You want to hit me, right? Go ahead, slap me hard and vent Aunt Chu's anger."

"Yes, I really want to slap you hard in the face and make you work like a slave for my mother in the underworld." Chu Mu's lips turned white due to the force.

A slap was swung, and Lin Jiaojiao raised her neck to prepare for it.

Chu Mu saw her slightly smug expression and his eyes flickered. When others were around, Lin Jiaojiao was always weak and unable to take care of herself, but now that no one was around, her temper became more domineering.

The more I think about it, the worse it feels.

Chu Mu was clear-headed, and the next moment she retracted her slap. She chuckled, "But if I did, wouldn't it just be what you wanted? You want me to embarrass myself in front of the Yi family, to make you look like a perfect match? Of course not. Everyone in the Yi family says I'm well-educated and well-mannered, so of course I have to put myself in a good place and highlight your ignorance and pettiness."

How could this be?
