Chapter 125: People are more valuable
Mu Chuchu did hide at the door and peek for a while.
Strictly speaking, it was more than a moment.
Ever since Su Man came, Mu Chuchu had lost interest in work and kept sneaking glances into the president's office intentionally or unintentionally.
Mu Chuchu didn't give up.
Rumors say that there is no love between Xiao Beisheng and Su Man.
The reason why Xiao Beisheng married Mu Chuchu was because he was bewitched by Su Man's beauty. From Mu Chuchu's perspective, how stable can a marriage based on beauty be?
There may be passion between them, but there will never be warmth.
But after observing for a period of time, Mu Chuchu discovered that Xiao Beisheng and Su Man were like a couple in love.
Xiao Beisheng treats Su Man very well, so well that Mu Chuchu becomes jealous.
Mu Chuchu had dreamed in the past about what kind of boyfriend she would have, and Xiao Beisheng met all the requirements. Xiao Beisheng was her ideal lover.
But now, this ideal lover was pushed to someone else by her own hands.
Mu Chuchu has been suffering from insomnia these nights.
She was distressed that Xiao Beisheng had become cold towards her.
It's also painful to see Xiao Beisheng and Su Man being so affectionate every day.
She even began to regret her decision to go to Su Man and tell her that Xiao Beisheng was pursuing her.
…
A week later.
Mu Chuchu is sick.
She hadn't eaten or slept well for nearly half a month, and she followed Gao Xun outside, sometimes under the scorching sun, and sometimes in an air-conditioned room. The alternating hot and cold caused her to catch a heat cold.
Mu Chuchu insisted on going to work despite being sick, and her face looked thinner.
As usual, Xiao Beisheng passed by her workstation without even looking at her. Even when he heard her cough, he didn't look away.
But Gao Xun would take better care of her and would not assign any heavy work to her.
Once she left her workstation and came back, she saw some medicine for treating a severe cold on the table. Her eyes lit up, thinking that Xiao Beisheng finally couldn't help it and was concerned about her again.
As a result, the colleague said that it was Assistant Gao who bought it for her.
Mu Chuchu's expression immediately became lonely again.
It is already summer, and there is abundant rain in summer. It started to drizzle outside just at noon.
Xiao Beisheng and the new team are holding an emergency meeting in the conference room.
Mu Chuchu was busy with her work at her workstation.
Suddenly the door to the conference room opened and Gao Xun came out of the conference room while talking on the phone:
"Yes, my wife is almost downstairs, but Mr. Xiao is in a meeting and can't leave, so I can't go down either. Please go and pick up my wife."
Gao Xun had just hung up the phone when Mu Chuchu stood up: "Assistant Gao, is Mr. Xiao's wife here?"
"Yes, my wife is coming over to have lunch with Mr. Xiao today."
Mu Chuchu suggested: "Shall I go pick her up?"
"No, you are sick, take a good rest."
Gao Xun refused without thinking and turned around to go back to the meeting room.
Mu Chuchu chased after him and called out, "Assistant Gao, let me go! You're all busy, and I'm the only one with nothing to do. I want to share some of the work."
Gao Xun stopped and thought for a moment.
The newly opened sector is overseas business, which Xiao Beisheng attaches great importance to, so all employees are on high alert and dare not make any mistakes.
Mu Chuchu is new here and has no access to the core business at all. She is the only one who is idle.
Gao Xun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Madam didn't bring an umbrella, so remember to bring two umbrellas."
"good!"
Mu Chuchu happily agreed.
She didn't know why she wanted to pick up Su Man. She just wanted to see Su Man more, get in touch with Su Man more, and see what Xiao Beisheng liked about Su Man.
Or maybe...
She wanted to do something to win back Xiao Beisheng's heart.
-
Su Man came here by taxi today. She saw a dessert shop she liked in the square opposite Dingsheng Building and asked the driver to stop there.
She planned to buy some dessert and eat it with Xiao Beisheng.
But unexpectedly, it started raining as soon as I got off the car.
Xiao Beisheng said that he would send someone to pick her up, so Su Man waited outside the bakery obediently. Unexpectedly, the person who came was Mu Chuchu.
Mu Chuchu only held an umbrella and walked out of the rain and fog, her hair covered with moisture.
She came to the eaves and put away her umbrella, "Madam, I'm here to pick you up."
Su Man looked at the umbrella. It was a little small. If two people held it, they would probably both get wet.
Because of what happened before, Su Man had a good impression of Mu Chuchu. Su Man thought she was a girl of integrity, so she asked with concern: "Are you cold? You can't get wet in the rain if you have a cold. But this umbrella is very small, and it may not be enough for the two of us to hold it together. Are you okay?"
"It's alright ma'am, it's not far, I'm not that delicate."
Mu Chuchu showed a sweet smile.
Su Man also smiled and said, "Okay, wait for me first. We still have to wait in line for a while. The cakes in this shop are very popular. You can try some later."
Mu Chuchu nodded.
Su Man was about to squeeze back into the crowd to queue up, but Mu Chuchu said, "Madam, let me help you hold your bag."
Su Man subconsciously refused: "No, the bag is a bit heavy."
Mu Chuchu grabbed it and said, "It's okay. Mr. Xiao asked me to come here to take care of you."
Su Man did not refuse anymore and let Mu Chuchu go and turned to queue up.
Mu Chuchu looked at Su Man queuing in the crowd, then looked at the umbrella and Su Man's bag beside her, and suddenly made a decision -
She put the umbrella against the pillar under the eaves, held Su Man's bag in her arms, and then resolutely walked into the rain.
After the meeting, Xiao Beisheng came out of the conference room and ran into Mu Chuchu who was soaking wet.
Xiao Beisheng had been trying his best to keep his distance from Mu Chuchu during this period, and they rarely spoke to each other. But when he saw Mu Chuchu like this, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Gao Xun said you were going to pick up the wife, why are you like this?"
He glanced behind Mu Chuchu and asked, "Where's the wife?"
"My wife had something else to do. She said the umbrella was a little small and we would get wet if we held it together, so I gave it to her."
Mu Chuchu was holding her bag, looking pitiful.
Xiao Beisheng couldn't help but frown, "Since you have a bag, don't you know how to use it to block the rain?"
"This is my wife's bag. She said there are valuables in it."
Su Man said that the bag was a bit heavy, and Mu Chuchu heard it, but for some reason, she lied.
Xiao Beisheng's brows knitted even tighter: "Which is more valuable, the bag or the person? Aren't you still sick?"
Mu Chuchu was slightly surprised by Xiao Beisheng's words.
He cares about her.
Xiao Beisheng also realized what he said and felt that his words were a bit ambiguous to Mu Chuchu. He then added, "You are the company's labor and property. If you fall ill and the tasks at hand are delayed, the company will suffer a huge loss."
Mu Chuchu was still very happy and immediately assured: "No, I won't delay the progress of the work."
Looking at the little girl in front of him who was soaked all over, Xiao Beisheng felt a little headache.
Her hair hung down wetly, her clothes were soaked, and the thin fabric stuck to her body. The air conditioning in the company was still very strong, and she was shivering with cold. It was obviously summer, but her lips were frozen purple. She was not at all pitiful.
She is still sick.
I'm afraid I'll fall ill after getting caught in the rain.
Xiao Beisheng sighed secretly and said, "Come to my office, go to the lounge and change your clothes."
