With both her hands clenched tightly onto the front seat of the car, Mu Yu was in a state of utter terror as she waited for the collision to happen between both the cars while calling out for Huan in her heart. Crash!
“F*ck!”
“Ow!” The force of inertia caused her head to slam against the front seat, but to her surprise, the impact wasn’t as strong as she had expected it to be. “Are you alright, Yu?” Rong Jian’s familiar and anxious voice was followed by a light tap on her shoulder. “Chief Rong, Doctor Mu—are you guys okay?” Zhang Yiming’s fearful voice came next.
When Nie Yunkang got him to work for Mu Yu yesterday, the man had warned him endlessly about how Mu Yu was the wife of the Qing Tian Group’s CEO, as well as how he should be especially polite to her. Zhang Yiming himself was aware of how well-known the Qing Tian Group was. The car accident only got him more frightened as he had just asked his cousin about Rong Jian’s family background—
Rong Jian’s heart jolted in surprise as he thought, Does Qiqi know about the whole incident with Rubing?“I’m so disappointed in you! Hmph!” Feng Qiqi turned her head away from the man as her furious gaze landed upon Mu Yu, who was standing behind him. While Rong Jian was still dumbfounded by this, Zhang Yiming seemed to have realized what was going on as he quickly put on a smile and pointed at Mu Yu as he said, “Hello, Qiqi. I’m Rong Jian’s friend, and this is your sister’s colleague, Mu Yu. I’m sure your sister has mentioned her name in the past, right?”“You’re Mu Yu?!” Feng Qiqi blushed as she realized how she had misunderstood them and embarrassed herself. She pulled a funny face before she grinned and waved to Mu Yu. “Hello, Mu Yu.”“It’s nice to meet you, Qiqi.” Mu Yu quickly snapped back to reality as she forced a smile and greeted the young girl in return. “Does your arm still hurt?”“It does, but I’m really strong.” With
“Huan?!” Mu Yu was shocked to see Qin Jinhuan the moment she spun around. “What are you doing here?”“I’m here to visit Qiqi,” he said with a smile as he stepped in.“Wow! Huan!” In one swift motion, Feng Qiqi leaped into a standing position on top of her bed excitedly as she said, “Is this cake for me?”“You’re the only one whose birthday is today; of course it’s for you.”It was only then did Mu Yu notice the cake he was carrying in his hands. Surprised, she turned toward Rong Jian and asked, “Is it Qiqi’s birthday today?”Rong Jian, who had felt guilty from the start, only felt worse when he remembered that it was the young girl’s birthday. “I’m sorry, Qiqi—I…”“Hmph! I always knew that Huan cared for me more than you did!” Rejecting his apology, Qiqi simply jumped off her bed as she gleefully ran toward Qin Jinhuan.“Watch out!” Mu Yu quickly edged forward to help the girl down. She finall
Qin Jinhuan calmly shifted his gaze over to Bian Zijun, while Mu Yu seemed a lot more anxious as she was the first to ask, “What is it?”“There’s been an issue with the factory at South City too!”“What?!” Mu Yu felt like her heart was about to leap out of her throat. “What issue is it this time?” It can’t be someone else dying again! God, please bless us! Don’t let it be another dead body!“The factory workers from the first department are going on a strike! Those in the second and third departments seem to be intrigued by this idea as well!”Phew, it’s just a couple of workers going on strike! As long as no one is dead. Mu Yu let out a sigh under her breath. To her, human lives mattered the most. However, she soon realized the impact of the staff’s strike on Qing Tian Group’s profit, and her relief turned into worry yet again. She was about to ask what was the reason behind the strike when Rong Jian beat her to it. “Why are they
“C-Chief Rong?” She stuttered while answering the call.“Yu, what was the hypothesis you had about the underlying reason for Rubing to reject me?”So this is what it’s about, thought Mu Yu as she relaxed slightly. After contemplating for a moment, she said, “Even though she likes you, my guess is that Madam Feng probably rejected you because of her own hidden issues—she could be suffering from a traumatic experience during her own childhood or something like that. This can also explain why she’s especially strict toward Qiqi now.” As she spoke, she felt Qin Jinhuan’s gaze landing on her. She then chuckled and scratched her head before she added, “This is just my own guess.”However, the man on the other end of the call seemed much more serious as he only spoke up after a moment of silence. “I might need to visit her hometown just to look around.”“Wasn’t Madam Feng a graduate of An University? I didn’t know she wasn’t a local.” Mu
“D-Did you just hit me, Jinhuan?!” Yin Anran couldn’t believe her own eyes. She gave Qin Jinhuan a death glare, her eyes tearing up as she did so.On the other hand, Qin Jinhuan had a cold look on his face; there wasn’t the slightest hint of warmth in his tone as he said, “How dare you lay hands on my woman? Do you have a death wish?”Immediately, Yin Anran understood what was going on. She felt her chest burning with rage and had to stop herself from calling Mu Yu a b*tch. With tears in her eyes, she stared at Qin Jinhuan as she asked, “What did she tell you, Jinhuan?”He side-eyed her emotionlessly as he warned with a clear voice, “I won’t forget this—stay away from her in the future!”“Jinhuan, how can you simply listen to her side of the story without asking me anything about what really happened? You’re being unfair to me!”“Get out.”“Jinhuan!”“Get out!”How could someone l
Qin Jinhuan’s eyes widened. He stared at Wen Zeyu—the only person who was free to enter his office at all times—as the latter walked hastily toward him. “I just received some news from South City Factory; a lot of the workers have decided to leave their jobs in the end. The assembly line is slowing down, and it’s probably going to affect the rate at which we are manufacturing our products!” Wen Zeyu shook the stack of papers in his hand as he continued, “This might also impact our scheduled orders; based on our calculations, the amount of compensation required to pay off the liquidated damages might go up to several billion! Huan, why don’t we agree to the worker’s requests for now? Just so…”“I want you to post up the recruitment advertisements for newcomers immediately.”“I’m afraid it’ll take a while for us to find skilled, older workers who are familiar with the job! If we hire a lot of newbies, we’d have to give them basic training—it will influence ou
“What is it?” Qin Xiaozhi anxiously glanced at Mu Yu once he realized the sudden change in her expression. “Uh… It’s nothing.” Mu Yu kept her legs pressed together as she forced a smile onto her face. “I just feel like going to the toilet all of a sudden. I’ll head there now, Grandpa.”“Go on. Take your time and don’t run there!” he uttered.“Alright! I’m fine, Grandpa.” Mu Yu answered him while she speedily walked toward the toilet. After she shut the door, she quickly opened the cupboard beneath the sink—she usually kept her sanitary pads there. What?! Why aren’t there any sanitary pads here?! She had just bought tons of boxes of pads during the last Black Friday sale; the entire cupboard had been stuffed with it! Wan Mingxiu—and occasionally, Li Xianglan too—usually cleaned her room up. Could they have taken all my sanitary pads away because they thought I was pregnant and wouldn’t be needing it for a while? Oh my God!Mu Yu pressed her legs
Under the well-lit streets, there was a 7-foot tall snow castle that was built on the land beside a stretch of wisteria trees. The mini castle was delicate and clear; it looked exactly like an actual castle.“Watch out, it’s slippery!” Qin Jinhuan followed closely behind Mu Yu as he reminded her.“Who made this? It can’t be you, can it?” Mu Yu was extremely surprised as she looked around, admiring the whole castle. Qin Jinhuan stood in front of the castle’s ‘grand entrance’ and beamed at her with his eyes narrowed. “Why can’t it be me?”“This looks like so much work…” Realizing that she should try her best not to offend him for anything, Mu Yu quickly changed the topic. “Did you come here right after you sent me home?”“No. I went back to the office,” he replied honestly.Mu Yu then gave him a ‘See, I knew it’ gaze as she grinned and looked at him. “I told you that it’s impossible for you to make this! Even if we don’t
"You ...""Dad, mom, you guys go back first," Shang Qi Qiang stopped his father who was about to have a seizure, and turned to Qin Jinhuan to apologize, "Big brother, a thousand mistakes are my fault, you let me meet Xiao Xi, I'll make amends to her and beg for her forgiveness.""Why are you the one making amends and begging for her forgiveness? It's not like she caused the accident! She caused it herself, okay?" Chen Juan was very dissatisfied with her son's words and immediately spoke out angrily, "It was her own fault that she deliberately found a reason to quarrel with you in the middle of the night and then ran out to meet another man before she got into the accident! Wasn't she at fault?"Chen Juan said while presenting the cell phone page about the intimate contact between Qin Chengxi and Fu Shaoyan to Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu to see, afraid that they do not know as if, completely ignoring the side of the husband and son who made all kinds of winks.Mu Ye
"Sister-in-law, go and pull my brother, but you can't ...""I know I know." Muyi pressed her to lie down, "You don't want to hurt the wound!""Don't mind me, I'm fine!""Okay, okay, I'll go persuade your brother." Knowing that she was in a hurry, Mu Yu waited for her to lie down and then ran out and instructed the nurse who had made special arrangements to take care of Qin Chengxi before leaving in a hurry.Seeing that Qin Jinhuan's figure had long since disappeared from the elevator entrance, she hurriedly called him and, upon learning that he was in the underground parking lot, immediately ordered him to wait for her to go down."What the hell is going on? Wasn't Shang Qi always good to Xiao Xi before?" Mu Yu expressed her disbelief after getting into Qin Jinhuan's car."That's for Shang Qi to ask." Qin Jinhuan glanced grimly at Bian Zijun.Bian Zijun answered, "I've already gotten through to Mr. Shang, and he said that he'll immediately a
Qin Chengxi had never actually thought of leaving the Shang family because she never thought she would have such a rigid side."Xiao Xi ah, you're too honest and have a weak nature, your brother is always worried that you'll be bullied outside, and always asked me to advise you to put on a stronger personality. You are a member of the Qin family, you should show the Qin family's vigor. Your brother said, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what happens, he will always be your strongest backing. You have to memorize these words."Her ears rang with the words her sister-in-law had spoken to her so eloquently today.Previously, she had been silently putting up with Chen Juan's mouthiness in the Shang family because of Shang Qi, and now that Shang Qi was talking to her in such a tone, what reason did she have to put up with them?Today she was going to show them that she, Qin Chengxi, wasn't as weak as they thought, and that she also had a personality!
"Isn't it just a picture? Making a big deal out of it is not something the Hoshi I know would do!""Is this just a picture in your eyes? Is it not your disloyalty to our relationship?""When have I ever been unfaithful to our relationship? Hoshi, you're breaking my heart when you say things like that, do you understand?""Your attitude breaks my heart even more!""My attitude ..." Seeing her crying more and more sad, he only had to give in, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll make amends to you, I'll apologize to you, okay?""It would have been your fault. Think about it another way, if the picture was of me with another man ...""No ifs!" He immediately interrupted her with a scowl."You know to be angry too.""Haven't I already admitted my mistake?""You drove Joey Zhi Yun.""No way!" Shang Qi refused Qin Chengxi without even thinking, "I need her badly now!"Qin Chengxi bit her lip, "So do you need me?""That's
Seeing that it was Chi Sihui's caller, he wanted to not answer it, but after a moment's hesitation, he answered it.In the end, the two families were family friends, and he and she had grown up together as little ones."Shangqi, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Chi Sihui's petite voice came through."What is it?" He asked back, faintly."Let's have dinner together, we haven't seen each other in a long time.""Not available.""Alright, alright, don't be angry with me, I invited you to dinner today just to apologize to you.""Apologize to me? Isn't it an apology for Hoshi?""To her?" Chi Sihui's voice was through contempt, but she didn't continue, turning to say, "I'll give her an apology, but I only want to see you today. Come on, I've reserved a seat at the Fate Restaurant.""No time.""Eh!" Seemingly knowing that he was about to hang up the phone, Chi Sihui immediately exclaimed, "You're going home for d
"Uncle, Auntie."With Shangqi gone, Qin Chengxi has no one to rely on, and Chen Juan makes her apprehensive.Chen Juan didn't enter the room either, but just looked at her with a face full of compassionate concern,"Xiao Xi ah, how's your body toning up these days? Why are you getting thinner and thinner?""I've been a little sick the last few days, so I've been eating very little. Always sleepy."Afraid that she would bring up another topic that she couldn't face, Qin Chengxi made a gesture of yawning, looking really sleepy, hoping that it would make her realize that she was leaving."You can't even take care of yourself, how can I expect you to take care of Sang-ki in the future?"Qin Chengxi wanted to say, "Shangqi will take care of herself," but thought better of it and smiled dryly, "I'll get my body well as soon as possible. Don't worry, uncle.""You just can't carry on the flavor for the Shang family even after you've toned up your bod
"Eh! Shangqi, let go!" Qin Chengxi struggled sharply."Shang, Mr. Shang?"The group of people who came in originally wanted to ask Qin Chengxi to look into the break because there was an argument, but they didn't expect to run into this scene, so they were all embarrassed and subconsciously tried to turn away."If you're here, why don't you finish before you leave?"The one who spoke, Shang Qi, at this time he had let go of Qin Chengxi, but his hand was still on her shoulder, as if he was swearing a kind of sovereignty, as if he was saying, you guys can watch out, your boss is my daughter-in-law, if you dare to bully her, you are bullying me.The corners of Qin Chengxi's mouth twitched as he looked at him unnaturally, but he let him.The crowd exited her office immediately after saying what they had to say briefly and succinctly.He grinned and held her hand as he took her out to dinner.She finally smiled at the thought.Since s
Qin Chengxi answered Mu Yan's call.She knew that her sister-in-law was worried about her situation, and immediately stated that she had the support of Shang Qi as well as the Shang family's parents, and only then did Mu Yan say nothing, and advised her a few more times to take care of her health."I know, I'll go back in a few days to see you and Redeemer. I miss Redeemer." She responded with feigned relief."Isn't it easy to miss her? I'll come home from work and bring her to video you.""Okay, that's a deal."A few more words were exchanged before she hung up.When he came back to the office again, Sang-ki was already buried in papers.Looking at him, who had also lost weight, she felt both guilty and heartbroken.She's the one who dragged Sang-gi down.If it weren't for her, the papers in front of him wouldn't have accumulated like a mountain.Meetings were pushed back and forth, and some matters that needed to be handl
"Brother! Don't!"Qin Chengxi was also terrified and cried as she went up to beg Qin Jinhuan.Although she has been in her heart not ashamed of what her parents did, but in the end is her biological parents, she can not sit back and do nothing, not to mention the grandfather's corpse is not yet cold, and in any case the family can not be so farce."Ah Huan, calm down!" Mu Ye also immediately stepped forward to dissuade Qin Jinhuan.Qin Jinhuan didn't make a sound, but just looked askance at Qin Wentao with a chilly face, without the slightest look of being persuaded by them.The sound of running footsteps outside approached.Qin Chengxi, who was afraid of seeing blood, was terrified, but she knew she couldn't say anything about her big brother and could only cry and go up to her father and beg him to leave.Qin Wentao knew that he couldn't restrain his son, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, when Qin Chengxi crashed into
