Chapter 517: Look at You, You’ve Lost Your Voice

“Hmm?”

Mu Xichen raised his eyebrows and flashed a rare smile.

Gu Mingye shivered as he felt a chill traveling up his back.

Good grief!

Boss really makes me cringe when he gets all amorous!

Mu Xichen took the food from him, smiling but indifferent at the same time, and said, “You may go now.”

Gu Mingye protested. “What the…”

Before he could finish, the door was slammed shut in his face.

Heartbroken.

Gu Mingye stood at the door, thought for a while, and decided to ring the doorbell.

Soon after, Mu Xichen opened the door.

Gu Mingye looked at him with a serious expression, then cleared his throat and said, “We have the latest news—we lost the deal we were vying with Mu Donglin for.”

Mu Xichen didn’t seem to be too bothered by this information. He merely raised his eyebrows and remarked casually, “Lin Ya intervened?”

“Probably.”

“Hmmm.” Mu Xichen had expected this. “What about the Baihua project?”

“That one we won, but…” Gu Mingye looked a little puzzled. He continued, “The Baihua case is not all that profitable. Furthermore, there are many processes involved and relations to be established. Why do you…”

Looking at the man calmly, Mu Xichen turned around and said, “We’ll speak inside.”

Gu Mingye was moved and quickly entered the house, shutting the door behind him.

He noted that Li Beinian was in the dining room, and she had already started to eat.

She raised her hand in greeting when she saw Gu Mingye. “Hello.”

He immediately greeted her enthusiastically. “How are you, Sister-in-law!”

Li Beinian smiled. She was wearing a pair of roomy pajamas.

She wore her hair out and had no makeup on her face. She glowed with radiance as she devoured her food hungrily.

Sadness. Why did he have to pick such a time to talk to the boss about work!!

However, he didn’t dare to look her way too much and immediately sat down on the sofa politely.

Mu Xichen unhurriedly brought pen and paper, then sat opposite Gu Mingye. “It’s for the best that we won the Baihua case.”

Gu Mingye was puzzled and asked, “How so?”

“The government values this piece of land at Baihua,” he slowly explained and clarified as he drew a few circles on a piece of paper.

Listening in while she was eating, Li Beinian gradually lost focus.

She knew that the man had always excelled.

And although he was a military man, he handled commercial business with ease and confidence. This wasn’t an overnight achievement.

Shangzhi was established a few years ago. At the time, Mu Xichen was still in the military and had not retired.

He kept a low profile, on one hand defending the nation with his life, on the other hand building his own business. How did he manage that?

It was beyond Li Beinian’s imagination.

In her heart, she had long held great admiration for him.

Soon, she felt quite full, but Mu Xichen and Gu Mingye were still talking.

Unable to hold back any longer, she called out, “Why don’t you have some food first, it won’t taste as good cold.”

“Ah, I’ve eaten. Boss, why don’t you go have your meal.” Gu Mingye took the pen and paper off him and said, “I’ll study this by myself.”

Mu Xichen did not insist. He stood up and walked over to the dining table.

Li Beinian scooped some piping hot soup for him and handed the bowl to him, saying, “Quickly drink this up. Look at you, you’ve lost your voice.”

Mu Xichen smiled and took the bowl. He whispered, “You’ve been shouting for a while too, you should drink some.”

A bright red hue spread across her face, and, instinctively, she turned around to glance at Gu Mingye.

She wasn’t sure if the man heard them, but he seemed engrossed in the document.

She was relieved after ascertaining that he couldn’t hear them.

Reaching out to pinch Mu Xichen’s waist, she hissed angrily. “I shouldn’t have felt sorry for you, damn it!”
