1235 Mr. Mu“s Teachings 2
When he heard that, he only squinted at her casually. Then, he could not help but say softly, “It’s rare to see a man’s sense of achievement from you.”
Grinning happily, Xi Xiaye cleared her throat and quickly stuffed a piece of snack into his mouth. “Well then, I do find that getting you was quite an accomplishment.”
“That’s true. I’m an excellent man. I told you that dating me would do you good.”
“You’re still so narcissistic with your attitude that lacks humility at all. Xiao Rui’s influenced by you too. He just started school and a few girls in his classes already fancy him. Every day, he comes home with a bag stuffed full with junk food. He even said that he brought them back for his little brother to eat.” Xi Xiaye shot him an unhappy glance.
Mu Yuchen chuckled and sipped his tea. He said nonchalantly, “My son’s already so charming at such a young age and even knows how to use it well. This is a good thing. Next time, he’ll definitely be an excellent supervisor.”
“Don’t feed these thoughts to them. I want them to grow up peacefully like normal children, not like those rich kids who are all self-indulgent. It’ll just be us who have to worry about them,” Xi Xiaye said softly.
“Our son has a high level of self-awareness, so he won’t worry us.”
“You’re quite confident.” Xi Xiaye rolled her eyes at him.
“A good environment and family culture have a huge influence on children. As long as we go with the way we are, I trust that my son won’t go too bad. You just like to think of nonsense and worry too much,” Mu Yuchen said as he saved the data and casually shut down the laptop.
“But…” Xi Xiaye wanted to say something more, but at this moment, Li Si and the rest had already rushed back.
“Master, it’s about time to board the flight,” Li Si said.
Mu Yuchen got up and handed his windbreaker to Xi Xiaye before he kept away the things on the table.
“We’ll just leave it to you here. Contact me if there’s anything and visit Master Mo often,” Mu Yuchen ordered.
Li Si nodded. “Master, please don’t worry. We’ll do it well. You and Missus have fun.”
This time, Mu Yuchen did not bring too many people along, he only brought Xi Xiaye and four other black-clothed bodyguards along.
It was slightly past 4 p.m. By the time the flight took off, it would be another few hours too. All of them flew first-class.
…
A while after the flight took off, Xi Xiaye leaned against Mu Yuchen and fell asleep. Mu Yuchen very considerately covered her with a thin blanket, and then took out a document from his briefcase to continue flipping through it.
The plane flew through the thick clouds and the blue sky.
Xi Xiaye did not know how long she had been sleeping. She just knew that when she woke up in a daze, the sky was already dark outside, and she could hear the sound of paper flipping beside her. She turned to look and saw the man flipping through some documents.
“You’re awake?”
Mu Yuchen’s voice was heard. In an instant, a clean, warm moist towel was handed to her.
Xi Xiaye took it and simply wiped her hands. Then, she had two sips of clear tea and felt much more awake.
“How long have I been sleeping and what time is it now? How is it so dark already?” Xi Xiaye asked.
Mu Yuchen slowly closed the document and handed it to the bodyguard as he replied, “You slept quite soundly this time. It’s already been past five hours, so it should be half past 7 in the evening in Los Angeles right now. We’ll be reaching in another half an hour.”
“So soon?” Xi Xiaye turned to look out the window, a little shocked as she stretched.
“You only woke up at noon, but you can really sleep. I think you probably don’t need to rest at night.”
“Isn’t it all your fault?” She rolled her eyes at him. When he heard that, he only cleared his throat and smiled through pursed lips. “I was just trying to prove that my stamina’s still pretty good.”
“Forget it. I don’t want to talk to you about this anymore. Right, Li Si said that you met Han Yifeng again today. Why so mysterious? What couldn’t you talk about yesterday that you had to do behind my back?” Her mind suddenly flashed with what Li Si had told her.
When Mu Yuchen heard that, he gave her a side look and asked, “This is business between men.”
“What do you mean by that? Do you have something on them, or do they have something on you?” She rolled her eyes annoyedly at him.
He laughed helplessly. “Can’t you think of more positive things?”
“What positive things? Have you and Han Yifeng turned to friends from enemies?” Xi Xiaye asked with interest as she squinted at him.
“Are Han Yifeng and I enemies?”
“Aren’t you?”
“He’s too weak. Only Su Chen and the rest are worthy of being my rival, but sadly we’re buddies,” he said without being courteous at all. Then, he looked unhappily at her. “The resources that used to be by your side were quite limited. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have cultivated such cheap taste.”
“Please, aren’t you still jealous of him every single time?” Xi Xiaye protested.
“Why would I be jealous?” he said casually, breathed in, and then continued, “It’s for Xi Xinyi. Since we want her to be one of us, I’ll have to give her some benefits at least. How else did you think I would’ve known about you and Qi Feng’s matters?”
“Did Xi Xinyi really become one of your chess pieces?” Xi Xiaye looked a little shocked at him.
He did not respond, but his flickering gaze already answered her.
“No wonder she was actually all weird before…” Xi Xiaye was stunned for a while before she muttered to herself and sighed softly. “Mr. Mu, I actually don’t know how I should face her. I think I really can’t truly let go of all the things she did to me before, but subconsciously, I also don’t want her to…do badly…”
“So, are you telling me that you’ve forgotten past pains and that your wounds have healed?” He was irritated at her for being soft, but his gaze was clear.
Knowing her, he knew that no matter who it was, especially if it was kin, she would not be able to really be heartless. Otherwise, she would not be Xi Xiaye!
“Do you think I’m really weak and easily affected? Using their words, I’m like the Virgin Mary though this Virgin Mary is a word with negative connotations…” As Xi Xiaye forced a laugh, her fair and beautiful face could not help but be colored with self-mockery.
“A fault confessed is half redressed. I’d much rather give someone another chance if we could really save a bad person and turn them good. However, whether or not someone else gives you a chance, the more important thing is that you need to help yourself. Get it?”
