Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 484: A Little Incident In The Office (2)

“Going to see him in the Mu Residence? Your grandpa has returned to the country?” Zhao Youlin raised her head in surprise and looked at Mu Tingfeng with a shocked expression.

Mu Tingfeng nodded, as if he could see the concerns hidden in Zhao Youlin’s mind. He reached out to hold Zhao Youlin’s hand and said comfortingly in a low voice, “Most of the time, Grandpa does not care much about the affairs of his children or grandchildren. And back then, it was he who asked me to… I don’t think he will make things hard for you. Don’t worry too much. Besides, I am here for you.”

Mu Tingfeng’s timely consolation did not ease Zhao Youlin’s concerns much. She still felt a little concerned, but she also knew that she could not control this kind of thing, so she did not dwell too much on this matter. She nodded and answered, “Okay, I got it. I will be there on time on the weekend.”

“I will go and pick you up.”

Zhao Youlin shook her head and said, “No need, your grandfather is not a monster. It is not like he will eat me. I can go there by myself. Stay with our family and wait for me at home.”

Mu Tingfeng did not insist. He nodded and changed the subject without a trace. “Lately, has President Ye come over to look for you?”

Zhao Youlin was slightly stunned. She looked at Mu Tingfeng with puzzlement. Hadn’t he been hating the fact that Ye Yan was coming to see her? How come he was now taking the initiative to ask about this?

What exactly did they talk about at the banquet that day? Or was this guy still worried that Ye Yan still had feelings for her?

“No. I haven’t seen him since the day I met him at the banquet. Why are you asking this?”

A cold light quickly crossed under Mu Tingfeng’s eyes. He indifferently replied, “Nothing.”

Zhao Yulin gave Mu Tingfeng a suspicious look. She had a feeling that Mu Tingfeng was hiding something from her.

However, since Mu Tingfeng did not want to say anything, Zhao Youlin would not ask him. Everyone has privacy that they did not want others to know.

Just like how she hid it from Mu Tingfeng that she was not his ex-wife before. As long as Mu Tingfeng did not do anything that betrayed her, she was willing to believe that this man had his reasons to hide something from her.

But Zhao Yulin did not expect that what Mu Tingfeng had concealed from her, she would soon be able to know why in an unexpected way.

The reason why Mu Tingfeng chose to show up at Zhao Youlin’s office at exactly 12 o’clock noon, was of course not just to give her a bouquet of flowers. In fact, lunch break was the best time to bond with each other.

President Mu, who had finally gotten a hang of how to court her, would never let go of a good opportunity like this.

Other than sending flowers every day, he also had another trick up his sleeves, which was preparing a lunch box for her. However, as a handsome and rich man, holding a bouquet of flowers in his arms seemed romantic, but carrying lunch boxes here would ruin his image.

So, the task of carrying lunch boxes had become Secretary Xia’s job.

After taking over the weighty lunch boxes from Might Secretary Xia’s hands, Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin heartlessly left Xia Zhetao behind, who was also hungry and had not eaten his lunch yet. They closed the office door again and cruelly spent time alone with each other.

Xia Zhetao stared at the office door that was less than five centimeters from his nose. Once again, he raised his head by forty-five degrees and looked at the sky with sorrow. After indulging himself in a speechless moment for a few seconds, he turned around in a resigned manner and was ready to go downstairs to find a restaurant to have lunch. Though he ran into an acquaintance the moment he turned around.

“Secretary Xia.”

Xia Zhetao was surprised that the young girl took the initiative to greet him. He carefully swept across all directions to make sure no one was there before he replied in a low voice, “Ms. Su.”

Su He smiled when she saw that Xia Zhetao was being careful. She lowered her voice and said, “Don’t worry, Secretary Xia. Li just went out to buy food. She is not here. There is only you and me here.”

Only then did Xia Zhetao heave a sigh of relief. Su He added, “Thank you for your help last time, Secretary Xia. I haven’t been able to find a chance to thank you before. I am really sorry, Secretary Xia.”

Xia Zhetao thought for a while before he realized that Su He was talking about the last time he helped her to send a message and hide the matter from Mu Tingfeng. He quickly smiled and said, “It is not a big deal. It is my pleasure, Ms. Su. You are President Mu’s cousin. This is the least I could do.”

The most important thing was that this young girl in front of him might look naive and harmless, but she was not just President Mu’s cousin. She had the entire Su family behind her. Simply put, she was a little princess.

If he ever offended her, he might lose his life one day. Her family might throw him into a river and let the fish feed on him.

“You are being too modest, Secretary Xia. No matter what, you did me a huge favor. How about this? I will buy you lunch some time, to thank you for…”

Before Su He could finish, she heard a growling noise. Her words were stopped by this noise.

She instantly looked at the source of the sound, which was Xia Zhetao’s stomach.

Xia Zhetao coughed lightly, trying to cover his embarrassment.

Su He was a little stunned. She only came back to her senses after a while. She smiled and asked, “Secretary Xia, you haven’t eaten yet?”

Xia Zhetao let out a dry laugh and nodded his head. “Yes, I haven’t had time to eat yet. What about you, Ms. Su?”

“I haven’t eaten yet either, but I have brought my own food, and I happened to have brought some extra food today. If you don’t mind, Secretary Xia, would you like to have lunch together? Li has gone to buy food, she won’t come back so soon, anyway. And no one usually comes up here at noon.”

After Su He passed through the morning sickness period, her appetite had gradually improved.

Perhaps because she had to feed another life in her stomach, lately, Su He stopped eating only a little in every meal like she did before, instead, she was eating more and more food. Her appetite was getting better and better, and she even got hungry easily.

Therefore, Su He would bring two packs of food to the company. She would usually have one at this hour, and another one during the evening break.

Upon hearing that she had food, Xia Zhetao’s eyes lit up. Yet he still despicably said, “How could I eat your food?”

Su He was amused by Xia Zhetao. She kindly said, “It’s just some simple home-made small dishes. I hope you don’t mind.”

“Why would I mind?” Xia Zhetao immediately stopped rejecting. He grinned and said, “Well, if you insist.”

Afterwards, Xia Zhetao expressed his love for the lunch box brought by Su He with his actions. He picked up the chopsticks and started to stuff the food into his mouth like a groundhog.

He looked ferocious, like not only did he want to finish the food in the lunch box, he even wanted to swallow the lunch box too.

After Su He, who was standing on the side, saw this, she twitched the corner of her mouth, and was… dumbfounded.
