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

She kept saying that the grudges from the previous life had nothing to do with Chu Mu, but Lin Jiaojiao felt at ease enjoying everything she had taken from her mother.

Lin Jiaojiao said she wouldn't embarrass Chu Mu, but inwardly she was already plotting to take over her studio. Chu Mu smiled faintly at this insincere statement and simply said, "You're overthinking it."

Yi Yichen's urging came from the phone. Chu Mu did not entangle with Lin Jiaojiao and quickly arrived at Yi Yichen's hotel room.

Yi Yichen's presidential suite was a room reserved by the auction company, specifically for the top bidders to rest.

The door of the hotel room was ajar. Chu Mu knocked on the door, and Yi Yichen's voice responded from the bathroom.

Chu Mu slowly walked into the house. A large patch of warm orange sunlight shone down on it. Everything seemed to be coated with gold, and even Chu Mu's heart became soft.

But this softness is somewhat inappropriate at this moment.

After two months of coaxing and begging, Chu Mu still failed to get the emerald from him. Does she have a chance of winning this time?

Chu Mu couldn't make up her mind. She didn't dare to overestimate how much Yi Yichen cared about her, nor did she dare to estimate it.

What kind of feelings can a man who has worked his way up in the mall have?

What’s more, it is the most insignificant love between men and women.

Chu Mu had deliberately seduced her because the gem was nothing to Yi Yichen, so she took the risk.

But now it seems that her chances of winning are slim.

Suddenly, she felt that life was so difficult. Her mother's face appeared in her mind. If her mother were still alive, what would she say to her after such a series of failures?

Should she give up her revenge on Lin Jiaojiao and her daughter, or just go with the flow and live her own life?

"What are you thinking about?" The familiar voice behind him brought Chu Mu back to reality.

Coming back to her senses, she gathered her hair in front of her ears and asked instead of answering his question, "Boss Yi, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"How about we make a deal?" Yi Yichen sat on the sofa. Although his position was much lower than hers, he seemed to be indifferent to her.

"Mr. Yi, have you decided to become my VIP client?" Chu Mu joked, making a final attempt.

"I'll give you what you want." Yi Yichen picked up the number plate on the table, his expression indifferent, with the calmness of a business talk: "You move into Xishan Villa."

Xishan Villa is Yi Yichen’s holiday home in the suburbs. It is surrounded by mountains and water, with beautiful scenery. It is a very comfortable place to relax.

He is usually here when he is not busy with work.

Chu Mu didn't understand the meaning of Yi Yichen's words for a moment. Given their relationship, it was obviously unnecessary to say such a thing.

Yi Yichen then added, "I don't like owing others anything, especially not feelings. You move into Xishan Villa, and the emerald will be yours. I'll decide when our relationship ends."

The words were so cold that Chu Mu suddenly felt cold all over, with the chill seeping from his flesh.

So this is what Yi Yichen meant.

When did he decide on this meaning?

Chu Mu's bright eyes dimmed a little, but when he raised his head, he was calm and unfazed by winning or losing. After all, they were husband and wife, so what was wrong?

Chu Mu agreed readily: "Okay."

"Let's have dinner together." Yi Yichen stood up, looking indifferent and distant, as if he was condescending to an ordinary customer.

……

the other side.

Qi Man is waiting for a refund of her membership fee.

Suddenly she received a call from Chu Mu, asking her to go find Assistant Xiao Song to pick up collection No. 3, which was the emerald.

Qi Man was extremely surprised. Yi Yichen was not completely heartless. He still loved his wife.

Qi Man was waiting for Xiao Song at the entrance of the banquet hall.

Assistant Xiao Song approached, looking as handsome as ever in a light gray suit and a commanding presence. In his early twenties, his face still held the youthful charm of schoolboy days. Yet, he handled matters with a deftness and decisiveness.

"Handsome Xiao Song, long time no see!" Qi Man waved his hand with a silly smile on his face.

Assistant Xiao Song smiled her trademark polite smile and got straight to the point: "Ms. Qi Man, please follow me."

Xiao Song handed the auction number plate and identity certificate to the auction staff.

"Please wait a moment." The auction staff carefully checked the relevant information and then handed the collection to a colleague to take away.

The deal is done.

While waiting, Qi Man couldn't help but ask Xiao Song, "Is your CEO Yi interested in our Mu Mu? He just gave her 100 million worth of gems."

Xiao Song wore his signature smile and said in a secretive tone, "The last thing our President Yi lacks is money."

A flock of crows flew overhead, and Qi Man looked at Xiao Song with a pout. If it were anyone else, she would have been sarcastic, but it was Yi Yichen who left her speechless.
