Yes, Li Mu, you haven't seen how worried your father has been these past few days.

After Mi Lan finished speaking, Li Mu didn't even glance at her, and Li Hongyun just looked at Li Mu without paying any attention to her.

Li Mu knew he had no choice but to agree, so he could only nod slightly.

All right.

Okay, great! Xiao Mu, hurry up and eat.

Dad, I want to go to the branch office today; it feels like it's been ages since I last visited. You should rest well; there are professional managers running the branch office. Take good care of yourself.

Yes, sister, I'm still at the branch office.

Li Mu looked at Mi Xi.

Mi Xi smiled at Li Mu, but in her heart she felt a surge of smugness.

Yes, she joined the Li family company and is now the head of the C City branch. Although it's only a temporary appointment, Mi Xi feels that she has done quite well these days, and she is confident that she can solidify her position while Li Mu is recuperating.

Oh, by the way, Xixi, wasn't it Xiaohao who brought you back? Where is he?

Dad, Hao was a little tired and was planning to take a nap. When he found out that my sister was back, he dropped me off and then left.

Oh, I see.

Mi Xi smiled and nodded outwardly, but inwardly she couldn't help but recall the past.

This all started more than two hours earlier, when Mi Xi was abandoned by Miyamoto Nanhuai and asked Ling Hao to pick her up.

When Mi Xi saw Ling Hao, she was so confused and infatuated that she wanted to go back and have some intimate time with him. However, Ling Hao was too impatient and drove to a secluded place for them to have sex in the car.

She's a celebrity, a big star, and Ling Hao dragged her from the car to the other car and forced her to lie face down on the car, it's unbelievable.

However, Mi Xi still finds it a little exciting now that she thinks about it. She's afraid of being seen, but she also feels incredibly excited and thrilled. It's a real contradiction.

So if you're at the branch office, does that mean I can't go there?

Li Mu smiled and tilted his head to look at Mi Xi.

Mi Xi snapped out of her daze upon hearing Li Mu's voice, still somewhat bewildered, and stared blankly at Li Mu.

ah?

I said, does that mean I can't go to that branch office?

I didn't say that's what I meant.

Okay, it's alright.

Dad, then I'll go to the D district branch.

What!

Ah, sister, what I meant was that the D district branch is too busy. Sister, you're not suffering from amnesia, so why don't we wait until you're fully recovered? Managing a company still requires a certain level of ability.

Mi Xi couldn't control her emotions and her voice became very agitated.

Upon hearing this, Li Yi raised his head, his cold eyes shooting towards Mi Xi.

I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I was just worried about my sister's health, that's why I was rambling. I didn't mean anything by it.

You always speak without thinking. How can you still be like this after being married for so long? You've really been spoiled by the Ling family and Ling Hao. You'd better watch your words in the future.

Mi Lan's words served two purposes: first, to exonerate Mi Xi; second, to subtly imply that Li Mu and Li Yi, who were older than Mi Xi, were not married; and third, to emphasize how much Ling Hao doted on Mi Xi and how much the Ling family valued her.

It's no wonder Mi Xi was excited. The D District branch is slightly different from other branches. The difference is that the D District is not a city. The D District includes the D departments of H, J, L, and M. The area of ​​one D District is one-sixth of the total area of ​​China.

In addition to basic projects, Zone D also includes heavy industry.

In other words, whoever controls District D will have absolute power and hold a pivotal position within the Li Group.

Although the D District branch holds an extraordinary position within the Li Group, it only ranks second among the other companies in the D District. The D District is under the absolute control of the Qin family. If it weren't for the generations-long friendship between the Li and Qin families, they wouldn't even want to establish themselves in the D District, let alone get involved in heavy industry.

To clarify, it's intermittent amnesia, not losing one's brain.

Li Hongyun fell into deep thought, and spoke after a moment.

You can go to the D District branch if you want, but you have to agree to three requests from your father.

Li Mu nodded.

First, you should apply for a job through the normal process, start from the bottom, and don't let anyone know that you are a member of the Li family.

Secondly, within six months, one must reach at least the position of project manager in order to remain in Zone D.

Third, it should not interfere with your recovery treatment.

Li Mu nodded again without hesitation.

Yes, I agree to all three conditions.

Okay, you can go to the D district branch after your recovery treatment this week.

D District Branch, D District Branch, that's D District! Mi Xi was almost shattered, she was practically going crazy, but on the surface she was showing a happy face.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, Mi Xi relaxed again. D District Branch, what a concept.

The Lai Group is mainly engaged in heavy industry, real estate, tourism, medical equipment and trade exports.

The Li Group is divided into headquarters, branches, and subsidiaries. As long as Li Mu does not enter the company as the eldest daughter of the Li family, she will have a lot of room to maneuver.

At this moment, Mi Xi already had countless ways in mind to make it impossible for Li Mu to gain a foothold in the branch.

That's great! I was worried that I wouldn't cooperate with the treatment because of work.

Well, your sister and I are relieved that you've agreed.

After finishing their meal, Mi Xi made an excuse to leave. Mi Lan went to a beauty salon. Li Yi received a phone call and went out. Li Hongyun originally wanted to stay and accompany Li Mu, but Li Mu refused, so he had to give up and went to the company with a sigh.

Everyone's gone, and now it's quiet.

Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, Li Mu saw the small garden outside the villa, which looked like an oil painting.

There are only four months left until the New Year, and the weather is a bit chilly right now.

Miss, please put on some clothes before going out.

Li Mu nodded and let the maid drape a trench coat over her shoulders.

Li Mu walked out of the villa and sat down in the garden. The servants brought over fruit, snacks, and coffee.

The fruits, air-freighted that day and of excellent quality, the freshly baked and exquisite pastries, the freshly ground and steaming coffee, and the crystal-clear pond in the garden with koi carp blowing bubbles—all these elements combine to create a scene of tranquility and peace.

Across from the Li family villa was Qin Yin's villa. On the third floor, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Qin Yin sat quietly on a custom-made single sofa.

Chairman Qin, when can we start the war?

Let's wait for further notice.

But we've already waited five years.

Keep waiting.

Chairman Qin.

Keep a close eye on that emerging pharmaceutical company and report any developments to me.

Chairman Qin.

The other person on the phone sounded like they were about to cry.

Did you understand?

I understand.

Okay, that's it.

After saying that, he hung up the phone without paying attention to the complaints on the other end.

Qin Yin said he didn't want to know anything about Li Mu, but his actions betrayed him. When he learned that Li Mu had returned, Qin Yin also came to stay here. Seeing Li Mu sitting in the garden drinking coffee, he got up and made himself a cup.

A steaming cup of coffee sits on a small rosewood coffee table with gold and dark patterns.

Seeing Li Mu pick up his coffee and start drinking, Qin Yin also picked up his coffee and took a sip.
