Chapter 327: Curled Up Warmth (2)

Some things did not need to be said. Just an unconscious detail or habit was enough to tell how the other person treated you.

She was like that. She would quietly do things, going to the extent of doing much more than she said she would. Her warmth and care would stop at nothing such as it did right now. A pot of green ivy had suddenly appeared on his desk, and his computer screensaver had been changed to a dark green prairie that looked refreshing. Across the peaceful image, she had even written a graceful line of flowing words:  Simplicity to prove high ideals, quietude to reach far horizons, cheering you on, Mr. Mu!

There was even a drawing of a pig that she had drawn in the document on the side. Because it looked very cute, he could not help but chuckle.

This little girl was actually very cute, but no one knew just how cute!

He stared at the screen for a long while, then exhaled before he opened a folder and continued the work he had not finished earlier.

He worked for almost an hour before he finally finished organizing the details. Then, he sent it to Ah Mo and was about to shut down his laptop when Ah Mo unexpectedly responded. After some thought, he called Ah Mo.

“Master, why aren’t you resting at such a late hour? Didn’t the sis-in-law complain?” Ah Mo’s mellow and rich voice came through the phone, and you could tell that he was still quite awake.

Mu Yuchen took his cup from the side and drew a sip before answering calmly, “Aren’t you sleeping either? She’s asleep.”

Ah Mo immediately laughed from the other end. It was in the middle of the night, so this call between the brothers was not like the usual professional ones of a superior and subordinate. It was more just a heart-to-heart chat.

“How’s it going? Are you getting used to things over there?” Mu Yuchen asked with concern.

“I’ve already gotten used to it. Right, Master, how did the tender meeting go today?”

“We got it. It was quite a close win,” Mu Yuchen answered calmly. His still eyes flickered for a moment before he continued, “Your sis-in-law and I are planning to do our wedding photoshoot in May, then have our wedding in June. You should settle the matters over there as soon as possible. There are some things I only trust you to do for me.”

“Wedding in June? It’s been brought forward quite a few months. Did something happen, Master?”

Ah Mo had been with Mu Yuchen for many years, so he more or less understood how Mu Yuchen was like. He usually would not change his decision unless there was a reason that left him with no choice.

“I’ve seen Qi Lei. He keeps getting close to your sis-in-law recently. I’m worried. Besides, the wedding will have to happen soon or later, and I’d feel better doing it earlier,” Mu Yuchen answered in a lowered voice, gently setting the cup in his hands aside. “My wish is for her stand by my side rightfully sooner.”

When Ah Mo heard this, he smiled. “Master, you aren’t minding those rumors and gossip in the office, are you? They’re all secretly saying that you and Sister-in-law are underground lovers. This does seem quite unfair to Sister-in-law.”

“Even though it’s unfair, she’s not complaining to me,” Mu Yuchen grumbled unhappily.

“Master, Sister-in-law just doesn’t want to make things harder for you. She’s a smart one… I’ve already gotten someone to watch the Qi family. If anything happens, I’ll inform you immediately.”

He did not forget how Mu Lingshi had acted tonight, so Mu Yuchen just asked, “Mmm, you can make the decision. Has Lingshi called you?”

Ah Mo fell silent on the other end. After quite a while, he responded, “She called once. We’re doing pretty good, Master. You don’t have to worry.”

“Whether you guys are doing good or not, I can see for myself… Lingshi’s like that. You know her well, I have no love strategies to let you reference, but I believe that she will be able to see your sincerity and care for her.”

Ah Mo fell momentarily silent, then he said thankfully, “I got it. Thank you for your concern, Brother.”

“We’re brothers, no need for such formalities, rest earlier, I’m going back to sleep too, your sister-in-law might have woken up…”

A faint smile flashed across Mu Yuchen’s handsome face, he said this, then hung up on the call.

He tidied the desk a little before he returned to the room, he had just walked to the side of the bed when he noticed that the little woman was indeed staring up ahead at the bed canopy, her eyes was vaguely misty and she was drowsy-eyed.

“Where did you go?”

She rubbed her eyes and looked to him through squinted eyes.

“I sent some things to Ah Mo, and we chatted on the phone.”

He responded softly and gently, without waiting for her to respond, he walked outside, in a blink of an eye, he walked in with another cup of water.

She reached out to take over the water he handed, she drank a few gulps before handing it back, “Were you talking about Ah Shi’s matter again?”

“Mmm, after our wedding, I’m guessing that the family will probably be worried for them.”

He set the cup aside on the table, then sat down by the bed as he lowered his gaze.

Xi Xiaye breathed in slightly. She crossed her legs and sat up straight. “Actually, they both have each other in their hearts, but they just can’t find a point to get to each other. The other day, when I spoke to Ah Shi, I could tell that she was struggling internally. The sorrow and hopefulness in her voice was a clear struggle. There was leeway for hesitation and a choice. On the other hand…”

“Ah Mo is not domineering at all. If he were a little stronger in imposing his manliness, maybe… What? I’m telling the truth! For a girl like Ah Shi, she should be matched with a slightly more dominant man who is protective. Why are you looking at me like that?”

Mu Yuchen shot her a glance and quietly climbed into bed.

“I’m talking seriously now. If I were Ah Mo, I would…”

He pulled open the blanket and pulled her into an embrace as he cut her off. “Well, you can’t be Ah Mo. What’s the use of all the ‘what ifs’? What’s between them is not as simple as what we have.”

“I wonder who it was that said what’s between a man and a woman is pretty straightforward…” She complained unhappily.

“You just like to find loopholes in my words…”

“Hmph!”

…

The next day, the husband and wife punctually reached the office. They had an early meeting to discuss the South River project tender from the day before, and they began to organize the early stages of the initial arrangements.

The entire project would see Xi Xiaye be in-charge under Vice President Zhang Lan’s supervision, and all the departments would need to cooperate.

The later part of the meeting was mainly about delegating tasks and getting funding and partners. There was a lot to talk about and it was complicated, so the entire meeting lasted till noon. Because there were still some things that had to be discussed at length, they had to continue again the next morning.

With the whole thing weighed down, Xi Xiaye felt burdened. Thankfully, Mu Yuchen arranged an elite group to work under her and agreed to give her special attention in private. Otherwise, she definitely would not be able to handle everything.

Because Vice President Liu was not in the company in this period of time, she had to watch over Yueying’s matters too. In fact, some things could not be dragged on anymore.

After a brisk lunch, Xi Xiaye left the office by car to meet someone.
