Mu Jiuyue’s eyes darkened, and then she pretended not to hear their remarks, looking to the director with a pathetic face, “Director, I really have grounds for it. You know in every month there are some days.”
Fine sweat was running through Mu Jiuyue’s forehead, and her face was pale. It seemed that she told the truth.
The director glanced at the expressionless face of Su Feng’ao beside her and compressed her lips, “Hurry up.”
“Yes.” Mu Jiuyue blinked at the director and struggled to her feet, heading towards the toilet.
“You denied that kiss and now pretend not to know me...” Mu Jiuyue pursed her lips when thinking about the icy face of Su Feng’ao.
“President Su, Miss Mu...” Someone commented.
Mu Jiuyue was notoriously idle and unprofessional. Therefore, when the news of her engagement to Su Feng’ao was publicized, people grumbled and felt sorry for Su Feng’ao.
But what was unexpected was that later Mu family went bankrupt before Mu Zhengxiong and Mu Jiuyue both disappeared. Now, Mu Jiuyue became an employee in Su Group. Although she had been working in the company for some days, she was only in the Marketing Department. No one associated this hard-working girl with the famous Mu Jiuyue.
Su Feng’ao glanced at the director of the Marketing Department beside him. The latter understood him immediately and uttered, “Mu Jiuyue was recruited by the Marketing Department according to the normal process.”
“But, President Su...”
“You have a problem with that?” Su Feng’ao directly interrupted the person in an icy tone.
The crowd instantly dared not make a sound, and Su Feng’ao glanced round them and left.
People behind him stared at each other in great surprise.
Mu Jiuyue was awakened by the ringing of her own cell phone, and it turned out that just now she unknowingly fell asleep at the table.
She straightened up slightly. Now her stomach didn’t hurt as badly as before. Rubbing her eyes, she saw that it was Qiao You’s call, and answered, “Qiao You.”
“Off duty now? I’m downstairs at your company.” Qiao You leaned against the car door and looked up at Su’s building. It was off-duty time and there were people coming and going.
Mu Jiuyue took down her phone, glanced at the time, then at the workload completed on the computer, and answered cheerfully, “Wait for a while, I’ll pack my things.”
“Well, take your time.” Qiao You said reassuringly.
He had been waiting for three years and didn’t mind waiting for a few seconds.
Feeling much better after a sound sleep, she hurriedly put all her things in her bag.
“Qiao You!” Mu Jiuyue went downstairs and saw Qiao You across the street at first glance. He was still sunny and handsome after all these years.
Hearing the voice, he saw her and delightedly walked over. But he felt heartbreaking when seeing clearly her face,“You look so pale. What’s going on?”
“I’m fine.” Seeing his nervous face, Mu Jiuyue hurriedly explained.
Qiao Yu immediately understood, frowned and took the bag from her hand. Then he reached out and said, “Here’s your cane.”
"Ha ha!” Mu Jiuyue smiled broadly. She wrapped her arms around him, leaning her entire body against his quite naturally.
At school, that was what the girl would do when having a stomachache. She looked at Qiao You’s face with a smile. It was nice to be taken care of.
At the gate of Su’s Group, Ye Ning’an was waiting for Su Feng’ao.
Seeing him, she greeted him with a smile, “Feng’ao.”
Su Feng’ao nodded slightly. He was about to leave when spotting Qiao You and Mu Jiuyue not far away. Then he paused and frowned slightly.
“Feng’ao?” Ye Ning’an looked at him confusedly as he stopped. She glanced in that direction, but saw nothing.
Su Feng’ao looked back and shook his head slightly, “Nothing, let’s go.”
Qiao You brought Mu Jiuyue to one of her favorite restaurants in previous times, which hadn’t been visited by her for a long time since the Mu family went bankrupt.
“Qiao You, it has been quite a long time since I was here.” Mu Jiuyue had an excited smile on her face, full of nostalgia.
Qiao You rubbed her head tenderly, “We’ll come here often if you like.”
Mu Jiuyue stuck out her tongue at his words, “Okay, then you have to earn more money, I’m a foodie.”
Qiao You smiled, and his face softened, “Ok.”
“Mr. Su, Miss Ye, this way please.” Outside the door, the usher greeted Su Feng’ao and Ye Ning’an and led them to the box that had been booked before.
There was silence in the box for a few minutes after the usher had gone.
“It’s the first time I’ve been here since my return.” Ye Ning’an’s voice was tinged with a trace of nostalgia.
She looked at the person sitting across from her, tenderness overflowing in her eyes.
Su Feng’ao nodded slightly, ignoring what she said, and opened his mouth directly, “Are there any more problems with the proposal this time?”
Today Mu Jiuyue handed over the planning, but he did not refuse it again.
“Feng’ao, it’s not time for work. Can business be put aside for now?” Ye Ning’an smiled.
Su Feng’ao snorted coldly, “Do we have anything to talk about other than business?”
He raised his hand and glanced at his watch. Then he got up and said without any emotion, “Since you don’t want to talk about it, then I’ll leave now.”
“Feng’ao.” Ye Ning’an yelled and stopped Su Feng’ao.
In her eyes the emotion was restrained and her voice was soft, “Can’t we even be friends now?”
“Bang.” Before Su Feng’ao could answer, he heard a voice coming from the doorway. The two persons looked towards the doorway at the same time.
Mu Jiuyue gave a glance in surprise, immediately retreated to the door, and looked at the door number. A hint of embarrassment appeared on her face.
“Uncle Su, Miss Ye, what a coincidence. Ha, ha, ha, ha.” Mu Jiuyue dryly laughed a few times and was about to exit.
Being interrupted, Ye Ning’an’s face was somewhat unfriendly, and she coldly said, “Is Miss Mu in the habit of eavesdropping?”
Mu Jiuyue raised her head slightly and curved the corners of her mouth, “Doesn’t Miss Ye understand Chinese after spending a long time abroad? I’ve said it’s a coincidence. Besides, do you think I would bother to eavesdrop on you?”
She had to change her previous comment about Ye Ning’an. What an annoying woman! No wonder Su Feng’ao didn’t love her!
“Bah, what a sharp-tongued girl.” Ye Ning’an sneered.
Mu Jiuyue answered back, but when noticing Su Feng’ao’s emotionless face, she swiftly changed her utterance, “Then you should thank Uncle Su. He taught me well.”
Mu Jiuyue just interruptted her date with Su Feng’ao. How come she was so aggressive?
The eyes of the two fell on Su Feng’ao. Ye Ning’an’s facial expression changed as she remembered what she had said earlier, and turned silent.
“What are you doing here?” Su Feng’ao’s voice was gentle.
“Surely for dinner, do you really think I have nothing to do but following you two?” Mu Jiuyue pursed her lips.
How could she expect to witness their grand reunion when she just wanted to go to the bathroom?
“I didn’t hear anything you said just now. You can be good friends as always. Qiao You is still waiting for me in the box.” Mu Jiuyue decisively chose to leave, turning around just as she was about to leave when her collar was grabbed by someone.
She turned back and glared at Su Feng’ao, “What are you doing? Let me go!”
“Go back.” Su Feng’ao didn’t even give Ye Ning’an a glance, carrying Mu Jiuyue to the outside.
Mu Jiuyue struggled, “Uncle Su, I haven’t finished my meal yet! You should leave here alone!”
She turned back to tug Su Feng’ao’s hand, but she was grabbed tightly by him, unable to move.
“Feng’ao!” Ye Ning’an shouted from behind.
Su Feng’ao didn’t even stop, and knocked Mu Jiuyue’s head, signaling her to be quiet.
“Uncle Su, if you don’t go back hurriedly, Miss Ye will be really upset. Let go of your hand!” She wriggled her neck uncomfortably, her tone unkind.
Su Feng’ao made no answer. She was a little anxious since Qiao You was still waiting for her in the box.
Closing her eyes, she directly bit Su Feng’ao’s hand. Su Feng’ao subconsciously took back his hand and covered the bitten area, squinting his eyes menacingly, “Mu Jiuyue, were you born in the year of the dog?”
Mu Jiuyue stood a few meters away from him and rubbed her neck, looking at his arm with a bit guilt. But thinking about what he had just done, she said assertively, “Why don’t you let go of me!”
“Come here.” His face darkened slightly.
Mu Jiuyue looked at Su Feng’ao, knowing that there might be something dangerous. She not only did not go forward, but subconsciously took two steps back, turned around and scampered away. But she accidentally hit the person behind.
Mu Jiuyue looked up and didn’t expect that it was Qiao You that came over.
Qiao You, ignoring Su Feng’ao on the opposite side, only fixed his gaze on Mu Jiuyue.
“Jiuyue, what took you so long?”
Mu Jiuyue hurriedly hid behind Qiao You, looking at Su Feng’ao across from her with a little more courage, “Uncle Su, you see I really didn’t lie to you. I came with him!”
Their eyes met each other, and the air around cooled down a bit.
Su Feng’ao coldly cast a glance at Mu Jiuyue. She shrank her head and then realized that there was nothing to be afraid of!
“President Su, I’m Qiao You.” Qiao You held out his hand.
Qiao You, the adopted son of the president of Mu Group who had been abroad for many years, was back at this time.
Su Feng’ao kept his hands in his pockets, not having the slightest intention of shaking hands with Qiao You.
Qiao You didn’t mind either, smiled and took Mu Jiuyue in his arms, “Jiuyue is naughty and causes a lot of trouble to President Su, I hope you don’t mind.”
“Qiao You, I don’t!” Mu Jiuyue looked up and immediately explained .
“Her last name is Mu and yours is Qiao.” Su Feng’ao’s tone was cold.
Silence fell at the scene. Mu Jiuyue sensed that something was wrong with Su Fengao, and tugged on Qiao You’s sleeve, “Qiao You, let’s go.”
Some complex emotion crossed his eyes. But when he looked over, it was gone.
“Ok.” He glanced at Su Feng’ao’s with a meaningful look in his eyes, hugged Mu Jiuyue’s shoulder and turned to leave.
Su Feng’ao stood still, and his expression was complicated.
The moon was high in the sky, and the dark night sky was dotted with stars.
Inside the car, Mu Jiuyue originally just wanted to close her eyes for a while, but she fell asleep later. By the time she woke up, they were already at the door of the Su family.
She rubbed her eyes with some chagrin, and her voice was still a little soft after the sleep, “Qiao You, why don’t you wake me up?” She took out her phone and looked at the time. It was almost eleven o’clock. How long had he been waiting here?
Qiao You reached out and rubbed her head, smiling, “It’s okay, I’m not in a hurry.”
Mu Jiuyue touched her nose and looked at him sweetly, “Then I’m going in now. I’ll call you later when I have time.”
“Ok.” Qiao You nodded his head and watch Mu Jiuyue walk in. Then the smile on his face slowly faded.
“Su Feng’ao.” Qiao You called the name with a meaningful look.
Mu Jiuyue’s eyes darkened, and then she pretended not to hear their remarks, looking to the director with a pathetic face, “Director, I really have grounds for it. You know in every month there are some days.”
Fine sweat was running through Mu Jiuyue’s forehead, and her face was pale. It seemed that she told the truth.

“Well, take your time.” Qiao You said reassuringly.
He had been waiting for three years and didn’t mind waiting for a few seconds.
Feeling much better after a sound sleep, she hurriedly put all her things in her bag.
“Qiao You!” Mu Jiuyue went downstairs and saw Qiao You across the street at first glance. He was still sunny and handsome after all these years.
