Half an hour later, Chu Mu came downstairs in his pajamas.

Hearing noises from the kitchen, she walked over. Yi Yichen, his shirt sleeves rolled up, was busy preparing and cooking dishes in a meticulous manner. Two pots were simmering on the stovetop, one frying steak while the other simmered soup. The milky white broth bubbling with steam and the rich aroma of milk, with just the right sweetness.

Chu Mu walked to the kitchen, leaning against the door with her graceful figure, and said gracefully: "Boss Yi really impressed me today."

Yi Yichen turned around and leaned lightly on the stove. He saw Chu Mu wearing a beige silk pajamas and a matching outer robe. Her waist was swaying with a belt tied lightly.

He loved her waist the most, like a willow in the breeze, slender and graceful. Of course, he loved the way he twisted his body against hers, so graceful and moving.

His Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes stopped on her face, without any lustful look, "Sit down."

He pointed to the chair in front of him.

Chu Mu didn't hesitate and sat down directly. A moment later, Yi Yichen arrived with steak and corn soup.

The steak was fried to a light golden brown on the edges, with a milky aroma, and looked quite good. She cut a piece into her mouth and put it in her mouth, chewing it gently. The meat juices burst in her mouth, wrapped in the slight spiciness of black pepper, and it was extremely tender.

Her eyes suddenly lit up and she praised, "The steak is very good. Mr. Yi does many unexpected things."

"..." Yi Yichen curled his lips slightly and replied meaningfully, "Secretary Chu does even more unexpected things."

"For example?"

"No." Yi Yichen said these two words lightly, and then ate steak as if nothing had happened.

Chu Mu froze, his hand pausing to cut the steak. He wasn't the type to say something without basis; he clearly had a point when he brought it up. When she pressed him further, he took another step back.

Suddenly her heart skipped a beat. Did he know something? About the fact that she was married?

With Yi Yichen's ability, it was too easy to investigate her. With just one phone call, he wouldn't even need to call her in person to know her entire past and current situation.

It's easy to find out whether she is married or not.

It can be seen that he looked calm, as if he really didn't have any regrets.

Perhaps Yi Yichen didn't care about her marital status at all. A relationship based on equal exchange from the beginning was doomed to fail. Being married, on the other hand, provided a protective shield for the relationship. By the end, it could be a clean and tidy affair.

Yi Yichen has always known exactly what he wants.

Her heart, which had been hanging in the air, fell again. She was also afraid that he would notice something was wrong. She raised her glass and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yi, for your help. We were able to find Manman so quickly."

When Yi Yichen typed the line of code fluently on the keyboard, Chu Mu felt that he was a god, and his whole body was radiating light.

If Yi Yichen had not retrieved Qi Man's location, Chen Shaoting would not have been able to arrive at the scene so quickly and rescue her.

"I never accept verbal thanks." He clinked glasses with her, took a sip of wine, and the smile in his eyes was somewhat tempting. "Secretary Chu, you should prepare a generous gift and then express your gratitude."

"My birthday is in a few days. I'm waiting for your gift." Yi Yichen tapped the desktop as if to emphasize the point.

What a bastard, waiting for her here? He thought all his actions today were compassionate. It seems it was just a sugar-coated bullet.

"Okay, Mr. Yi. I will definitely give you a big gift then."

"It happens to be Mid-Autumn Festival that day, so please accompany me back to the old house."

"..." Chu Mu was stunned. She didn't want to go back to the old house and continue to lie to the old man and the old lady. Ever since the last family dinner, the two old people had often sent WeChat greetings, asking when she and Yi Yichen would return to the old house. She just said she was busy with work and now she was going again. If the two old people took it seriously, she and Yi Yichen would separate again. How could she explain it?

"Can't you ask your wife to go?" Chu Mu said helplessly.
