Chapter 532
Ziyue was slightly startled when she heard it.
She wasn't used to being so close to people she wasn't very familiar with. The corners of her lips lifted, and she smiled before silently backing away. Her expression was earnest as she said, "Really? I didn't know."
Aika gazed at Ziyue for a few seconds as if ascertaining if Ziyue was lying or telling the truth. Aika backed away after that and continued drinking her tea.
Ziyue didn't quite understand what Aika meant, but thankfully Muchen was done with his call and was walking over.
"Tell me, how are you going to thank me?" Aika lifted her chin in Muchen's direction and had an unruly expression.
Muchen embraced Ziyue and leaned against her, seeming very lazy. His voice was listless. "Why should I thank you? It's not like you helped us for free."
Aika snorted coldly. "Muchen, do you really think I won't do anything to you?"
"Why are you speaking like you have the nerve to do something to me?" Muchen smiled disdainfully, and his tone was arrogant. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
There were finally traces of anger on Aika's face. She pointed at Muchen as she looked at Ziyue. "How
can you live with such a temper of his?"
Ziyue was slightly frustrated. These two people were being hostile to each other, and they were now pulling her into it. She was an innocent bystander.
She hurriedly poured Aika a new cup of tea, and she smiled. "Have more tea."
But there was faint unease in her heart. Aika said she was bisexual and then said such words. Aika doesn't have feelings for me, does she?
When she thought about it, Ziyue felt a chill in her heart. Although she didn't discriminate against bisexuals, she didn't feel the same…
Aika and Muchen talked about some serious business, from the presidential election to Gricy. Although Ziyue didn't understand everything, she could tell they were working together.
It was just that before Aika left, she looked at Ziyue meaningfully.
Ziyue was uneasy being the target of Aika's gaze.
After Aika left, Ziyue showered worriedly. She asked Muchen, "Does Aika have a boyfriend?"
Muchen glanced at her and was slightly surprised. It was as though he never thought she would ask such a question, but he answered truthfully, "No."
Ziyue asked again, "What about a girlfriend?"
This time, Muchen didn't say anything. He touched Ziyue's forehead before his tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. "You're not ill."
Ziyue smacked his hand away. "You're the one who's ill."
"Why are you asking me this? What did Aika say to you?" Muchen wasn't angry. He caught her hand and pulled her into an embrace.
"She… she said that… she's bisexual…" Ziyue hesitated before she answered stutteringly.
Muchen's eyes flashed slightly, but Ziyue couldn't see it. He said in a low voice, "She's playing with you. It's not true. I've known her for many years but never seen her with a… girlfriend."
He paused before he said the last word.
Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what Muchen said.
…
Early the following day, Muchen came out of the bathroom after washing up. He walked to the bed, feeling refreshed, and woke Ziyue up. "It's time to get up."
Ziyue asked in a daze, "What time is it…"
She wasn't fully conscious, and she was still in a stupor. She sat up, and her long hair fell on her shoulders messily. The collar of her silk pajamas slid down slightly after a night's sleep. She looked
muddle-headed and adorable.
Muchen couldn't help but hug and kiss her before saying, "Let's go to the office today. You have nothing to do here anyway, so why don't you come to the office?"
Ziyue stared at him for a while before she slowly came to her senses. "Okay."
She recalled that Muchen had brought it up last night but didn't say he was going to the office today.
"You're going to the office to work today?" Ziyue felt slightly frazzled. She hadn't had time to prepare anything.
"Mm. Get ready, and let's go to the office together. I'll wait for you downstairs," Muchen said before he got up and left the room.
An hour later, the two left after eating breakfast.
"Boss. Mrs. Qin."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ziyue raised her head and saw Chuan.
He was standing in front of the car with a grin as he looked in their direction.
Ziyue was a little startled before she smiled. "It's been a while, Chuan."
She had been in Country J for so long and surrounded by unfamiliar faces. She couldn't help but feel warm and happy when she saw Chuan.
Chuan had followed Muchen to Country J, but he was sent to deal with other matters, so he had yet to appear.
Chuan replied with a smile before pulling the car door open so they could get in.
…
Ziyue had never been to LK Group's headquarters.
She looked up at the towering building in the most bustling and attention-striking spot of Country J's capital. She felt indescribable pride in her heart.
This was LK Group. Muchen had spent half his life here, and this was his territory. He was the uncrowned king of the finance world.
Muchen stood next to her. Upon seeing Ziyue staring at the building absentmindedly, he stroked her head. "Have you never seen a building? You'll have all the time in the world to look at it in the future. It would be best to go in now."
"Why?" Ziyue turned around, confused. She saw that many people had gathered around them, most of them employees of LK Group.
Ziyue had yet to come to her senses when Muchen pulled her into LK Group.
"Welcome back, Mr. Qin!"
As soon as Ziyue and Muchen walked in, their ears rang from the voices greeting them in unison.
When Ziyue got a better look, she realized people stood in lines in the hall to welcome them.
Ziyue turned and looked at Muchen. He didn't tell her that such a thing would happen.
Muchen wrinkled his brows as though he didn't know such a scene would occur.
A tall, beautiful woman in office wear walked over. She was breathtakingly gorgeous.
She had long legs, a slim waist, an impressive bust, beautiful lips, and eyes as blue as the sea… She was so beautiful that she looked slightly familiar.
Ziyue was slightly surprised. Has she seen the woman before?
"Welcome back, Mr. Qin." The tall beauty walked to Muchen and slightly nodded before she looked at Ziyue. "Welcome, Mrs. Qin."
Although Ziyue didn't know the woman, she answered, "Thank you."
Then, she saw the beautiful and elegant woman rush to a person behind her as the woman called out, "Chuan."
Ziyue turned and saw the beautiful woman hugging Chuan.
She was Chuan's younger sister. It was no wonder that she looked familiar.
At this time, Muchen said, "This is Chuan's younger sister, Nan Ke."
