Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

The way Mu Zhou and Jin Xirong have been spending time together recently clearly doesn't give off the atmosphere of an impending divorce.

Moreover, although Jin Xirong doesn't say it, she seems to enjoy this state of mind.

Therefore, Mu Zhou naturally assumed that the two were... deeply in love.

Yes, it's love at first sight.

She opened Jin Xirong's chat window and sent a question mark:

【? 】

The reply came very quickly:

【how? 】

Mu Zhou smiled and continued typing on the screen:

[Checking up on someone.]

She then sent another message:

Send me a selfie video of yourself holding your phone and walking around in a circle. I want to see who's next to you.

Oh, by the way, to prevent you from trying to fool me with those old videos, I'll use my other hand to demonstrate.

Since we're deeply in love, we have to follow her standards.

After sending this message, the message "typing" kept appearing repeatedly in the dialog box.

Before the other party could send it, Mu Zhou continued:

What, feeling guilty? Too scared?

When Mu Zhou forcefully demanded that Jin Xirong report, her favorability towards him subtly changed.

Hearing the notification that his favorability rating had increased by 5%, Mu Zhou smiled knowingly.

really.

Jin Xirong, with her strong possessiveness and controlling nature, and her less-than-healthy psychology, lacks security and trust in intimate relationships.

What others find suffocating—the constant reporting of relationships—is simply his comfort zone.

The saying goes, "One monkey, one tether."

Sure enough, less than a minute later, Jin Xirong sent a video.

In the video, he turned around with a cold face, but his other hand obediently extended.

She could tell he was in a meeting.

Mu Zhou replied with satisfaction:

Good. Work hard, earn more money, and strive to get back to living in your big villa as soon as possible.

Upon seeing her reply, Jin Xirong on the other end of the phone showed some dissatisfaction.

He frowned and sent a few words.

【It's your turn.】

To be honest, his heart skipped a beat when he saw the check-up message from Mu Zhou.

That strange thrill made him inexplicably excited.

He enjoyed Mu Zhou's close control over him.

Naturally, Mu Zhou also made the same demand of him.

In the conference room, several of Jin Xirong's confidants looked at each other in bewilderment.

Just now, their stern, ruthless, and cunning boss suddenly picked up his phone during the meeting and started replying to messages.

I thought it was something important at work, but in front of everyone, the boss suddenly started taking selfies with his phone.

Even in selfies taken while spinning around, they probably ended up in the frame as well.

He even gestured with his hands to form a string of strange numbers.

Just as they were all at a loss, the phone notification sounded again.

For some reason, the boss suddenly smiled.

In less than a second, the smile vanished, replaced by the familiar sinister look.

His anger was even greater than before.

Everyone was instantly silent.

Jin Xirong looked at the report video sent by Mu Zhou, her face darkening.

He rewound the video to the third second.

A familiar face flashed by.

That disgusting, utterly hypocritical face.

He called directly.

"where?"

"What are you doing here? Picking me up?"

Mu Zhou's familiar, sweet voice came through the receiver, instantly making my ears feel both itchy and tingly.

Jin Xirong's pent-up frustration dissipated slightly, and when she spoke again, her voice was much softer:

"Okay, I'll come pick you up."

There was some noise on Mu Zhou's end; she seemed to be talking to someone. After a few seconds, Jin Xirong finally received her reply.

"Come to Shengkai Club in an hour."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Jin Xirong immediately stood up and coldly ordered:

"The meeting is adjourned here. Let's continue according to the previous plan."

He left in a hurry.

Mu Zhou hung up the phone, and Lily clicked her tongue as she looked at her.

"Who's coming to pick you up? The handsome new guy you just met?"

"Not a newcomer, but a veteran."

Lily instantly understood:

"Jin Xirong?"

Mu Zhou smiled and took another sip of wine.

Lily couldn't resist poking her waist again and winking at her:

"Are you two going to get a divorce?"

"Who knows, anyway, I don't have any right now." She recalled for a moment thoughtfully, then added, "It works quite well."

Lily chuckled, a knowing smile playing on her lips.

After chatting about men for a while, Lily got down to business.

"The project we invested in last time has been successful, and the profits are quite good."

After the Jin family went bankrupt again, Lily was afraid that she wouldn't be able to handle it, so she helped her out and invested in a beauty salon together with her.

It certainly can't compare to large corporations like the Jin and Mu families of the past, but for Mu Zhou, who has completely lost his source of income and can only make a living by selling bags and jewelry, it is already a considerable sum of money.

So, bringing these things up, Mu Zhou clinked glasses with Lily and said sincerely:

"Thanks."

"No need to thank me, we're like family. But if you want to thank me, let me give you a kiss."

As she spoke, she tried to hug Mu Zhou's neck and kiss him.

The two were joking around when Mu Zhou took a step back to avoid someone, but accidentally stepped on them.

She glanced back, her eyebrows twitching with displeasure.

The person standing behind him was Jin Zheyu.

He smiled good-naturedly:

Did it delay your landing?

Mu Zhou pursed her lips, showing no mercy whatsoever:

"A little bit, indeed."

He suddenly leaned in from behind, so close without saying a word. Isn't it normal for her to step on him?

It even scared her.

And then she says something like, "You're being all green tea b*tch, that you're inconvenient to stay here," like, "Pfft, you don't actually expect her to say he's funny, do you?"

That's a tired, tired phrase; it seems he's really been abroad for a long time.

Seeing that Mu Zhou was being so disrespectful, Jin Zheyu could no longer maintain his smile.

He twitched the corner of his mouth:

"We were just saying we'd meet up for a meal when we met again, and I didn't expect to see each other again so soon."

"Yes, what a coincidence."

Mu Zhou's tone was somewhat sarcastic, making it difficult for Jin Zheyu to discern whether it was simply a habit of hers.

Or perhaps she sensed something and knew he was deliberately getting close to her.

Mu Zhou had no intention of continuing the conversation with him; she turned to chat with Lily instead.

Jin Zheyu had no choice but to take his leave.

He looked at his toes, his expression not looking good.

Mu Zhou stomped on him quite hard, and he felt the pain.

But considering her thin, high heels, it seems normal; she probably didn't do it on purpose.

I had hoped to take this opportunity to get closer to Mu Zhou, but who knew she would be so difficult to deal with.

Even though she trampled on him, she showed no remorse and acted impatiently as if it were perfectly justified.

The smile on Jin Zheyu's lips slowly faded.

After Jin Zheyu had walked away, Lily said:

"Your brother-in-law is really making waves lately. You know the Smith family overseas, right? They've been fighting over their inheritance for years. Just last month, Jin Zheyu helped the current head of the family win a lawsuit involving an inheritance worth hundreds of billions of dollars."

She sighed:

"He's a major contributor to the Smith family now. Didn't you see how they were all greeting him with smiles?"

Lily raised her chin, gesturing for Mu Zhou to look in that direction.

Over there were several well-known second-generation rich kids from Beijing's elite circles.
