Chapter 73 Song Chi Encounters a Groper

"Of course we'll keep setting up our stall!"

Song Chi rested his chin on his hand, thinking for a moment before saying, "How about this... I'll draw the design first, and Tian Tian is coming over this afternoon so we can do crafts together!"

"That works, but I expect your business to be booming tonight, and with just two people, you might not have enough manpower."

Song Chi thought about it carefully: "That seems to be true..."

She is thinking of a solution.

Mu Yin suggested, "How about this, I'll go find my colleagues and ask them to help."

At President Mu's command, the talents of the Mu Group will put aside their more important projects to help the boss's wife make handmade jewelry.

But wouldn't that expose my identity?

Mu Yin wasn't worried, because he could shut his employees up.

Song Chi said in surprise, "Uncle, your colleagues are already very tired from work. It's not really appropriate to ask them to help out!"

Mu Yin blatantly lied: "No, they love helping others the most."

Song Chi blinked. Are all of Uncle's colleagues this nice?

"Uncle, why don't you give it a try and see who's willing to come? I'll pay everyone who comes, and I'll even provide them with meals!"

"good."

Mu Yin grinned and took out his phone to contact people.

Song Chi went to the kitchen to see what ingredients were available, as she didn't want to be unwelcoming when others arrived.

Meanwhile, Mu Yin sent a message to Ye Xiu.

"Arrange for ten of your most capable people to come and help me at my house."

Ye Xiu replied instantly: "President Mu, is there some major, troublesome project that requires such a large-scale effort?"

"My wife needs help making handmade jewelry, and time is tight. Please arrange for ten people to come as soon as possible. Remember, they must be tight-lipped and have them sign an agreement that they cannot reveal my identity!"

Ye Xiu: "...President Mu, is this the big project you were talking about?"

Ye Xiu was somewhat bewildered, and Mu Clan's talents were all doctoral graduates; why would they be asked to do this?

"Okay, hurry up and go!"

His wife's affairs were of paramount importance to him, a major project that could not be neglected.

Ye Xiu: "...Okay, President Mu, I'll make the arrangements right away. I'll be here with my people in an hour."

The two ended their conversation.

Song Chi walked over: "Uncle, how did the inquiry go? Are they willing to come?"

"Of course, they'll arrive in an hour, there will be about ten of them!"

Song Chi was a little nervous meeting the older man's colleague for the first time.

"Uncle, since they're coming, you should definitely have plenty of food at home. I'll go downstairs to the supermarket to buy some."

"You rest, I'll go buy it."

"Uncle, no, no, I'll go buy it. I know what I need. You stay home and keep an eye on my aunt. Make sure she doesn't do anything foolish. I'll be back soon."

Seeing that she was determined, Mu Yin had no choice but to say something.

"Then be careful, don't lift anything too heavy!"

"good."

Song Chi turned and left.

Song Chi went to the supermarket and bought fruit, peanuts, melon seeds, and some things to entertain guests.

As luck would have it, she ran into Xu Yue when she went to pay the bill.

Xu Yue was accompanied by a kind-looking middle-aged woman, and the two looked somewhat alike.

Xu Yue saw her and smiled at her.

"Song Chi, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Song Chi nodded: "Yes, what a coincidence."

Xu Yue introduced, "Song Chi, this is my mom, she came to see me today. Mom, this is my neighbor."

She couldn't hide her joy.

Song Chi nodded: "Hello, Auntie."

Xu's mother nodded and smiled at her.

After paying the bill, Song Chi remembered what Xu Yue had suggested.

“Xu Yue, I’ve thought about what you suggested last time. I’m still in the early stages, so I’ll ask you for help once I’m more settled.”

Xu Yue's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Song Chi, thank you."

She glanced around and said, "Hey, where's your husband today?"

"He's at home."

Song Chi picked up his things and prepared to leave.

Xu Yue and the others also paid their bill and followed Song Chi toward the elevator.

On the way, Sun Yaodong looked impatient.

"Xu Yue, have you finished buying it? You've taken up so much of my time."

"I'm all better, Dongzi. My mom came to see me and will stay at our house tonight."

Sun Yaodong glanced at his mother-in-law, his face sullen and rude, not even bothering to greet her.

He said impatiently, "This is such a hassle. Our house is so small, how can we fit everyone in? Can't we just stay in a hotel?"

Upon hearing this, Xu's mother's face fell. She wanted to say something to him, but Xu Yue stopped her with a look.

Xu Yue said, "Dongzi, hotels are expensive. My mom is being particular today, let's sleep on the sofa!"

"What a nuisance! Don't keep coming to my house unless it's absolutely necessary!"

Xu's mother's face grew increasingly grim.

Even Xu Yue was starting to lose face.

Song Chi, who was waiting for the elevator, was speechless.

She thought Sun Yaodong was a weirdo. How could Xu's mother have let her daughter marry such a person?

Song Chi also understood a principle.

Not all men welcome their wives' family members to visit.

She recalled how the uncle had taken care of her and her family, and her heart felt as if it had been held in his hands, filled with warmth!

When Song Chi thought of Mu Yin, a happy smile couldn't help but spread across his face.

"Hey, isn't this the neighbor's? Why are you alone today?"

Sun Yaodong leered at Song Chi.

Song Chi ignored him.

Just then, the elevator opened, and Song Chi entered, standing in a corner, distancing himself from scum like Sun Yaodong.

Sun Yaodong squinted, and the light in his eyes made Song Chi very uncomfortable.

Song Chi put the things on the ground and took out his phone to send a message to Mu Yin.

"Uncle, I'm in the elevator, I'll be home soon."

The reply came instantly.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the elevator."

Song Chi felt a warm feeling in his heart.

The elevator slowly ascended.

Song Chi was scrolling through the news on her phone and didn't notice that Sun Yaodong had been getting closer and closer to her without her realizing it.

His hand, without anyone noticing, moved to Song Chi's buttocks.

In contrast, Song Chi was completely unaware.

Suddenly, the elevator stopped, and for some reason, it shook.

Song Chi swayed, feeling something pressed against her buttocks.

She was startled and took a few steps back.

Song Chi turned around and looked at Sun Yaodong with a cold gaze.

Was he touching her butt just now?

However, Sun Yaodong did not look at her, as if it were her imagination.

Song Chi: "..."

She continued to scrutinize Sun Yaodong with a suspicious look.

Xu Yue said, "What's wrong with this elevator? It suddenly shook! It was terrifying!"

As she spoke, Xu Yue looked at Song Chi.

"Song Chi, how are you? Are you alright?"

Song Chi thought he might have been overthinking things; maybe the elevator was shaking and he accidentally bumped into it.

She shook her head: "I'm fine."

Song Chi looked away, unaware that Sun Yaodong was giving her an evil smile and moving the hand that had just touched her.

At that moment, the elevator doors opened.

Mu Yin and the others were waiting at the elevator door.

Xu Yue and the others subconsciously looked at Song Chi.

Xu Yue smiled and said, "Song Chi, your husband is here to see you. We're leaving now, bye-bye."

She waved and left with her mother and Sun Yaodong.

Sun Yaodong gave Song Chi a wicked look.

Song Chi did not discover it.

However, Mu Yin saw it, and his gaze darkened, a cold glint flashing in his eyes!

His eyes were fierce, like those of a ferocious beast, ready to tear Sun Yaodong to pieces...
