Chapter 204 System Punishment

Then Gu Mucheng’s system could not be intended to break them up.

If the purpose was to break them up, why bother sending her on the mission in the first place?

If not, or it can be said that Gu Mucheng's system did not intend to separate them, separating them was fake, and the real purpose was something else hidden.

So what role does Gu Mucheng play in this? Is he just a chess piece, or does he hold the dominant position?

She put down her pen, looked at the paper on the table, frowned, and thought intently.

Suddenly I heard footsteps coming from the door. It was probably Xiao Xuanjin coming.

Su Mi panicked and prepared to put away the paper on the table.

Then she thought about it...that's not right, why was she panicking?

She had been ordered and warned not to tell anyone about the system, but she didn't say it on her own initiative. What if Xiao Xuanjin guessed it on his own?

Then it can't be blamed on her.

Thinking of this, she paused as she was about to throw the paper away, picked up the pen and added a few strokes on it.

This way he should be able to guess better.

The moment the door was pushed open, Su Mi hurriedly pretended to throw the paper into the trash can.

Xiao Xuanjin caught her movements and asked, "What are you busy with?"

He had just finished taking a shower and was wearing a light gray robe. His dark hair was still damp, and his deep and superior eyebrows were even clearer and more charming. He was holding a cup of hot milk in his hand. He walked over and placed the milk in front of her.

Su Mi leaned back in his chair and stretched. "Nothing, it's just quiet here, which is convenient for me to think about things."

Because of her movements, the beauty hidden in her pajamas stood up proudly, and the curve became even more seductive.

Xiao Xuanjin's eyes darkened, "What are you thinking about?"

"Just random thoughts." Su Mi picked up the milk, took a sip, and was about to go back to the room.

"I'm sleepy, husband. I'm going back to sleep first."

She yawned as she walked, and when she reached Xiao Xuanjin's side, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "Let me help you."

"Okay." Give him the milk.

Xiao Xuanjin took the milk and put it on the table with a "click".

The next second, Su Mi was picked up in the air by him. She screamed and hugged his neck.

His voice was filled with tenderness and sweetness, "I'll take you home."

After saying that, he strode towards the bedroom with her in his arms. Su Mi looked back at the trash can forgotten there. Forget it, she had done so much good.

Seeing her sad face, Xiao Xuanjin asked with an irrepressible smile in his voice, "Madam, what are you so attached to in the study?"

"No way."

"Your eyes can't deceive me."

After saying that, he actually turned around and walked back to the study, returning the same way he came.

“What are you doing!”

"My wife likes to do it in the study, so naturally I have to comply."

Su Mi's face flushed red, and she wailed in her heart, she really didn't mean that.

…

At some point, Su Mi fell asleep from the tossing and turning.

In a daze, I glanced at the table, chairs, and curtains, and suddenly felt that the study was filled with an ambiguous and charming atmosphere, and I couldn't look directly at it anymore.

Xiao Xuanjin carried her back to the bedroom, helped her take a bath, and then put her back on the bed.

She was sleeping soundly, with her brows furrowed, as if she were dreaming again.

Xiao Xuanjin sat next to her and raised his hand to smooth the frown between her eyebrows. After a while, her face finally relaxed a lot.

After covering her with the quilt, Xiao Xuanjin returned to the study again.

I looked at that trash can...

She had acted so obviously just now, it was obvious that she wanted him to see it on purpose.

But it is also very obscure, as if it cannot be expressed in words and can only be understood.

Her thoughts were almost invisible to him, but he was always willing to comply with her.

She bent down and took out the crumpled paper, unfolded it and looked at it for a few seconds.

The above line of events is exceptionally clear, yet also exceptionally familiar.

All the things in the past emerged in a bizarre way. It turned out that everything she did was arranged.

All of this was planned for him.

This may be the difficulty she had told her psychologist before.

He had already completely let go of the past, and now there was only calm thinking and exploration.

What kind of existence could threaten the eldest daughter of the Su family?

He frowned and thought for a moment, then left the study.

…

In the next few days, Su Mi was busy dealing with funding issues. Her efforts paid off. After several exchanges and rectifications, she finally reached a cooperation with Youtian.

Xiao Xuanjin was also very generous and allocated a large sum of money to her for her to invest in land development and construction.

After negotiating cooperation with the contractor and the work of the project and various professional subcontractors, the construction site officially started.

Su Mi called his father and reported the progress here.

Su Boren on the other side praised her repeatedly, and his tone seemed quite satisfied, "Qingqing, you did a great job, you are worthy of being your father's daughter."

"Daddy, do you want to come and see it yourself?" Su Mi took the initiative to suggest that he come to inspect.

"Forget it, you have Xiao Jin by your side, Daddy is relieved."

He never forgets to praise his son-in-law. Su Mi laughed, "Daddy, are you and Mommy in good health?"

"Okay, but..."

"But what?"

Su Boren sighed, his tone full of regret, "Old Master Gu is gone, and the situation within the Gu family hasn't been very good recently. I saw Mu Qing a few days ago, and he had lost a lot of weight."

Su Mi didn't expect that such a big thing would happen in just a few days.

She had originally planned to deal with Gu Mucheng's task after she finished these few days. She always felt that there was still room for maneuver.

Thinking about Daddy suddenly bringing this up, it was because he knew she had a good relationship with Gu Muqing and had even blocked a car for her some time ago, so he took the initiative to bring it up to her, "Daddy, can you..."

Su Boren seemed to know what his daughter was going to say. "Qingqing, Dad will help the Gu family. With the friendship between our two families for so many years, Dad will not stand idly by."

Hearing this, Su Mi felt relieved.

After chatting for a few more words, I hung up the phone.

Su Mi recalled the time when Gu Mucheng stood in despair on the hospital rooftop. Could it be that he had foreseen the current situation at that time?

Or maybe he didn't complete his task, so he was punished by the system.

But that’s not right. It’s only been a few days, how could it be judged as a failure?

She did think of some solutions and wanted to help, but she still had to meet him first.

He didn't explain clearly, and she was powerless.

After thinking for a while, she called Xiao Xuanjin, "Husband, where are you?"

"In a meeting."

Why are you answering the phone while in a meeting?

Su Mi thought about the many senior executives watching him answer the phone, so he quickly put his words into a simple sentence, "Then I'll wait for you at home. Come back early after work."

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

I was afraid of disturbing him at work.

In the conference room, Xiao Xuanjin looked at the call that had been hung up and thought about what she had just said.

"If you haven't reported it yet, please email it to me later."

After saying that, he took his coat and went out.

The people below looked at each other blankly, thinking that the president must have encountered something extremely important, which was understandable.
