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

Cao Minhui looked at Chu Mu blatantly.

Chu Mu maintained a professional smile and stood there, letting her look at him.

Seeing Chu Mu's calm expression, Cao Minhui let her go. She took the flower from Chu Mu's hand and sniffed it.

She moved sideways to invite Chu Mu into the house, jumped onto the sofa, and asked Chu Mu with a look of longing, "What else did Brother Yichen say?"

“No more.” Chu Mu shook his head and spread the packed meals on the table one by one: “I bought them all according to Mr. Yi’s instructions.”

"It's the morning tea at the InterContinental Hotel." Cao Minhui said excitedly, but her eyes were clearly fixed on her, sizing her up: "My favorite one."

Suddenly, a bitter taste came over her. Chu Mu also loved his family's morning tea. Every Saturday, her mother would queue up to take her and Qi Man there.

She hadn't been there since her mother passed away. Firstly, the sight was heartbreaking, and secondly, a seat at the InterContinental Hotel had to be booked several days in advance, and she didn't have the time.

"Secretary Chu?"

Suddenly she heard Cao Minhui calling her. She came back to her senses and asked with a smile, "Miss Cao, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Miss Chu, you are so beautiful. Will Brother Yichen be attracted to you?" Cao Minhui's words caught her off guard.

Thinking of his relationship with Yi Yichen, Chu Mu blushed slightly, but still replied calmly: "It is rumored that Mr. Yi is not interested in women, so naturally he will not be attracted to me."

"Fake! This is all a smokescreen thrown by Brother Yichen." Cao Minhui pouted, but her clear eyes were clearly testing.

How could Chu Mu not understand her implicit meaning? He pretended to be nonchalant and helped her prepare the meal. Compared to her time at the British Empire, Cao Minhui's personality was more restrained. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe her abroad as arrogant and domineering.

"Secretary Chu, do you know that Brother Yichen is married?" Seeing that Chu Mu didn't say anything, Cao Minhui asked again.

There was a prickly, oppressive feeling on her amiable face. Chu Mu said calmly, "I know."

"Brother Yichen's wife's surname is also Chu."

Chu Mu froze as soon as he said this. He looked up and saw Cao Minhui smiling, her eyes filled with undisguised arrogance and a hint of questioning.

For a moment, the situation was tense and the cold atmosphere became tense.

Chu Mu quickly adjusted his mood and smiled business-like, "There are several Chu families in Zhucheng."

Cao Minhui's eyes were fixed on her, but Chu Mu was not afraid. He raised his eyes to look at her, but his eyes were much softer than hers.

After a moment, Cao Minhui lowered her gaze, took a bite of the shrimp dumplings, and commented: "The shrimp dumplings at the InterContinental Hotel are really good. Secretary Chu, would you like to try some?"

"As long as Miss Cao likes it." Chu Mu glanced at the bouquet beside Cao Minhui and asked, "Do you want me to find a vase and help you put the flowers in it?"

Cao Minhui followed his gaze and replied with a smile, "That's right. Flowers only come alive when they're in a vase. It feels fake when they're wrapped in thick paper."

"Excuse me, Secretary Chu." Every word Cao Minhui said was polite, but not gentle.

Chu Mu smiled, turned around and found a vase to help her put it on.

The vase is made of earthenware, which matches the large branches of lilies very well, giving it a sense of Renaissance elegance.

Cao Minhui's eyes were filled with surprise for a moment. A secretary with good taste actually said, "Secretary Chu, what school did you graduate from?"

"Kingston University."

"Kingston University?" Cao Minhui exclaimed in surprise, but soon a look of caution appeared in her eyes. "Kingston University is most famous for its design program. Why would Miss Chu be working as Brother Yichen's secretary?"

"For money." Chu Mu answered without thinking. Emeralds are also money, and one hundred million at that.

"..." Cao Minhui frowned and leaned against the wall, looking at her doubtfully: "How can you not find a high-paying job after graduating from Kingston University?"

"Mr. Yi gave more." When Chu Mu said this, his eyes lit up in an instant.

Cao Minhui retracted her doubts, and there was a hint of contempt in her eyes: "I also graduated from Kingston University, how come I have never heard of you."
