Mu Liuyun couldn't understand why these two were eating shrimp chips and fried rice at a Western restaurant and even had to feed each other, while he himself had properly ordered steak.
He's really craving steak right now.
I'm getting a little annoyed.
Mu Liuyun cupped her cheeks and bit her straw: "One of you wants to feed others, and the other wants to be fed. Why don't you just feed each other? I'll switch places first."
Upon hearing this, Long Haochen's eyes trembled, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Where did this straight-laced guy come from, or is he just naturally clueless?
As he spoke, Mu Liuyun stood up, preparing to make room for Chu Yaqin or Shen Lanxin. He wasn't planning to leave; after all, he hadn't eaten his steak yet. He wanted to try it out—what was so special about a steak that could cost him a hundred yuan and wipe out his entire savings?
“Sit down!”
As soon as he stood up, voices came from both sides at the same time, followed by two hands pressing on his shoulders, forcing him to sit down.
Mu Liuyun rubbed her temples, her pretty face scrunched up: "Do we absolutely have to eat these shrimp chips and fried rice?"
The silence from the left and right gave Mu Liuyun the answer.
He was getting annoyed, so he swallowed Chu Yaqin's spoon in one gulp and then stuffed the shrimp chips into Shen Lanxin's mouth with his other hand.
Choose? What's there to choose?
They're both bosses, they both pay him, and he wouldn't be happy if either of them were missing.
I just don't quite understand why bosses these days care so much about their subordinates? Maybe next time I should suggest they sign a non-compete agreement.
Chu Yaqin stared blankly at the spoon in her hand, then looked at Shen Lanxin who was happily munching on shrimp chips, and suddenly felt disappointed.
She felt like a maid, watching the person she liked flirt with the young lady, and when she ran out of energy, she had to go up and push him away.
"President Chu."
Shen Lanxin swallowed the shrimp chip with difficulty: "Let's switch the order, this time I'll feed you."
"Mr. Chen!"
Shen Lanxin waved her hand, displaying a rather magnanimous air. Chu Yaqin, on the other hand, had tears in her eyes and her lips trembling.
Then, she wiped her eyes, handed the spoon to Mu Liuyun, and said expectantly, "You haven't fed me yet!"
"..."
Mu Liuyun silently chanted in her heart: 'Don't be anxious! Don't be anxious! Anxiety gives the devil room to maneuver!'
Although he's very annoyed right now, the thought that both bosses have given him a lot of money makes this annoyance seem bearable.
"Okay, yes, you can feed anyone."
Helpless, Mu Liuyun picked up a spoon, scooped up some fried rice, and held it out to Chu Yaqin. Then, she turned her face toward Shen Lanxin and opened her mouth.
"Ring ring!"
Just as they were about to take the next step, both phones rang at the same time. Chu Yaqin and Shen Lanxin immediately stood up, leaving Mu Liuyun, who was behaving strangely, standing in the middle.
"Hey, is the house renovation finished? Great, I'll go back and take a look."
"Mother, shall we go home now? Yes."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Lanxin and Chu Yaqin displayed completely different expressions: one was delighted, the other looked grim. However, when they turned their gazes to each other, they both laughed at the same time.
"I've fed the secretary, and you've been fed by the secretary, so we're even, I guess."
Shen Lanxin nodded: "Shall we discuss it next time?"
"next time!"
After receiving a response, Shen Lanxin said to Mu Liuyun, "Xiaoyun, something urgent has come up. Let's go to the amusement park together another time."
Then, she glanced at Chu Yaqin and said, "Although I don't really approve of you working for the Chu family group, it seems you'd better listen to me."
Shen Lanxin was very happy. When she said she wanted to end the contract, she had advised Mu Liuyun that "as a man, you should think carefully about your way of life." And now, it seems that Mu Liuyun did just that.
What else could this be but love!
"Hmm...okay."
Mu Liuyun didn't think about what Shen Lanxin meant. She kept holding the spoon and sticking out her mouth, stiffly answering, and then watched Shen Lanxin turn and leave.
Then Chu Yaqin leaned closer and pinched Mu Liuyun's cheek: "Little secretary, what else are you hiding from me? You'd better tell me properly next time. See you tonight~"
After saying that, she playfully waved to Mu Liuyun and left the Black Swan Restaurant.
The world suddenly fell silent. Mu Liuyun was a little at a loss, but Long Haochen spoke first: "You can put the spoon down now."
Mu Liuyun stared blankly at Long Haochen for a moment, then looked down at the spoon.
Chu Yaqin used this spoon just now, right...?
"Go to hell!"
After shouting, Mu Liuyun stuck the spoon back into the fried rice, crossed her arms, and looked somewhat angry.
He felt annoyed when Chu Yaqin and Shen Lanxin were sandwiched between him. But now that they're gone, he's starting to sulk again.
What's going on? Am I being arrogant? Me?
Thinking about it this way, Mu Liuyun became even angrier.
Impossible, absolutely impossible! I, Mu Liuyun, could never be a tsundere!
He considered himself very good at understanding other people's needs, but he couldn't understand why Shen Lanxin and Chu Yaqin had the desire to feed and be fed.
"Ahem, Xiaoyun?"
Who are you?
Mu Liuyun glared at Long Haochen in annoyance, and Long Haochen immediately jumped up and quickly put on a fawning smile: "Brother Mu!"
"what?"
The way he called him "Brother Mu" made Mu Liuyun feel much better, but he was a vengeful person. The insults Long Haochen had inflicted on him that day couldn't be erased by just calling him "Brother Mu."
Hehehe.
Having received a response, Long Haochen rubbed his hands together like a fly and moved his stool forward a bit: "Brother Mu, I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with the three young ladies of the Chu, Chen, and Shui families."
"It's alright."
Mu Liuyun gave a perfunctory answer, because he saw the waiter bringing over the steak, so his eyes were fixed on the steaming steak lid, and he was somewhat eager to try it.
Long Haochen looked in the direction Mu Liuyun was looking, and immediately put on a flattering smile: "Brother Mu, I think President Shen and President Chu left without having time to settle the bill."
"ah?"
Hearing this, Mu Liuyun became a little nervous. It wasn't that he couldn't afford the meal, but a steak cost over ten thousand yuan, enough for him to eat over three hundred bowls of deluxe instant noodles!
"Hehe, Brother Mu, how about this, consider this meal my apology to you! What happened last time was Xiaolong's fault, you're a magnanimous person, please don't hold it against me!"
"I still prefer your rebellious self from last time."
Mu Liuyun was a little surprised. How come Long Haochen had suddenly become such a sycophant after just a few days? His attitude was even better than when he was a stand-in.
"Look at what you're saying. Last time, Xiaolong was still young and didn't know any better."
Last time Long Haochen returned home, he was given a severe beating by his grandfather, Long Aotian, which supposedly opened up his meridians. The thought of almost causing a conflict between the Long family and Chu Yaqin filled Long Haochen with lingering fear.
Now, let alone making him fawn over Mu Liuyun, he'd even fawn over Zhang Ruyu as long as he could get connected with these young ladies!
