Chapter 195 Business Trip
Ye Chen was also aware of the past affairs between the Mu and Zhang families. When he first found out that it was the Zhang family who was behind it, he was even more surprised than Mu Yuting.
Seeing that Mu Yuting was still silent, Ye Chen reminded him, "Yuting, it seems that you have to go to the United States in person."
Both of them understood that they had sent several waves of people there before but failed to solve this problem. It turned out that the old man of the Zhang family was using this method to force Mu Yuting to appear.
Mu Yuting frowned, his eyes filled with coldness, "Indeed, I have to go on this trip."
Ye Chen couldn't hide his worry in his words. "Over the years, I've seen a lot of ups and downs in the business world. If it's just a project, with your ability, I'm not worried at all. I'm afraid this trip may not be all about this project. I'm afraid that the old man of the Zhang family hasn't gotten over the grudge seven years ago and still hates you."
Mu Yuting smiled silently and coldly. His smile was shallow and fleeting. His face soon became expressionless. A few words came out of his cold thin lips.
"When the enemy comes, we will stop him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."
"I'll ask Assistant He to book you a ticket. How about the afternoon?"
"Try to book it for Monday. Xiao Nuan will be resting, and I want to spend the weekend at home with her."
At this time, the American project department was so anxious that they were almost going crazy. He still wanted to spend the weekend with his wife. Ye Chen was speechless.
Mu Yuting is becoming more and more unpredictable. In the past, when he encountered problems in business, he would not eat or drink until the problem was solved.
Now, no matter how big the problem is, it won't affect him spending time with his wife. I never noticed Mu Yuting was so lustful before.
You want to say that he is a pervert, but that's not the case. If he were really a pervert, there are so many women who are attracted to him, but you have never seen him even smile at any of them.
Ye Chen teased, "Yu Ting, I really want to ask you a question."
Mu Yuting knew that the boy hadn't been able to hold back his fart, so he scolded him, "Stop it, you're a dog with no ivory in your mouth, so hold back your problem."
Ye Chen ignored Mu Yuting's words and asked on his own,
"Seven years ago, when you took over the Mu Group, it was in crisis. You knew in your heart that there was no chance of saving the Mu Group just by the two of us. How could you have so decisively refused to marry Zhang Yinuo? Tell me the truth, if we had fought a desperate battle and failed to save the Mu Group, would you have regretted it in the end? Would you have gone to the Zhang family for help and agreed to marry Zhang Yinuo?"
Mu Yuting chuckled, "You think we are writing a novel? There are not so many ifs."
Ye Chen did not give up until he got the answer, and continued to ask, "What if, if Mu's company really goes bankrupt, will you be with Zhang Yinuo?"
"Wealth and honor cannot corrupt me, poverty and humbleness cannot move me, and might and power cannot bend me. Have you returned all that you have learned to your teacher?"
"Don't use those incomprehensible words to me. Speak nicely. If the Mu family is destroyed in your hands, I don't believe you won't regret it. You will definitely marry Miss Zhang."
Ye Chen deliberately used provocation.
Mu Yuting didn't care and said calmly, "What are you regretting? I'm not a child. Before making a decision, I have already prepared for the worst.
If you like someone, you like them. If you don't like someone, you don't like them. If you equate marriage with making do, settling for something, and profit, then this marriage is doomed to be sad. If it's sad, why would I risk hurting myself and others by jumping into it? I've always believed that the person you marry must be someone who lives in your heart."
Ye Chen couldn't help but nod after listening to this. Sure enough, Mu Yuting was still the same Mu Yuting.
Back then, Mu Yuting's business talent and skills shocked the entire Jiangcheng and made him a legend. After that, women threw themselves at him one after another, but he rejected them all. Ye Chen thought he was still thinking about Zhang Yinuo.
It wasn't until Lin Xiaonuan appeared that Ye Chen knew what he was waiting for.
The outside world has always thought that Mu Yuting's mind is full of work and he doesn't understand love. Who knew that he understands love more thoroughly than anyone else.
After hanging up the phone, Mu Yuting changed out of his pajamas and went to 1601 to see what Xiao Nuan was doing.
Ever since Xiao Nuan's door was replaced, he has been able to come and go freely. The fingerprint is his and the password is set by him. He no longer has to knock on the door and can come and go freely.
Xiao Nuan was nestled in a lounge chair on the balcony, holding a sketchpad in one hand and a paintbrush in the other, sketching bit by bit. She was painting seriously and didn't realize that Mu Yuting had walked behind her.
Seeing Xiao Nuan absorbed in her painting, Mu Yuting was afraid of scaring her, so he didn't call her. He turned around and went to the kitchen to squeeze a glass of juice for Xiao Nuan. Xiao Nuan heard the sound of the juicer and looked towards the kitchen, only to realize that Mu Yuting had come.
She put down the sketchbook in her hand and ran towards Mu Yuting barefoot, "When did you come? Why didn't you call me?"
Mu Yuting joked, "I dare not disturb our great designer. Didn't you say that this design of yours could be sold for 500 yuan? If I yell at you and your inspiration suddenly disappears, I can't afford to compensate you."
Xiao Nuan was amused by him and giggled. She was exhausted from drawing the design draft, but now she felt more energetic. "When I make money in the future, you don't have to work anymore. I will support you."
Mu Yuting had wanted to pass the squeezed orange juice to Xiao Nuan, but after Xiao Nuan said that, he put the orange juice on the table, took Xiao Nuan's hand, and made a pinky promise, saying, "Keep your word. I'm really waiting for you to support me."
Pinky promise? This guy is already 29 years old, but he still acts like a child. Xiao Nuan almost laughed out loud.
Xiao Nuan held up Mu Yuting's face and rubbed it, "Uncle, you are a dignified CEO after all. How can you be so shameless and even want your wife to support you? Aren't you afraid that people will call you a gigolo and a gigolo?"
Mu Yuting chuckled, "I just like eating your soft rice. It won't tire my teeth and it's good for my stomach. Do you want to take care of it?"
Xiao Nuan almost laughed out loud, "Okay, okay, I'll support you, okay?"
Mu Yuting held Xiao Nuan's hands with both hands and looked at her with a sparkling gaze. "If I wasn't who I am now, but just a small street vendor, would you still like me?"
Xiao Nuan frowned, pretending to be in deep thought, then deliberately smacked her lips and said, "That's hard to say. It depends on what you sell. If you sell starch sausage, I will definitely like it. I like grilled starch sausage the most. It's cheap and delicious."
This damn woman, Mu Yuting put his arm around her waist, "That means you like the guy who sells starch sausages at the entrance of your school. No wonder you insisted on dragging me to the night market there last time. You spoke so softly to him, it turns out you have a crush on him."
Before Xiao Nuan could say anything, he lowered his head and kissed her lips. "Lin Xiao Nuan, you're so useless. I can trick you away with just a few pieces of starch sausage."
Xiao Nuan hooked her arm around his neck, pouted, and retorted, "Hmph, uncle, you still have the nerve to say that? My starch sausage can at least fill my stomach, but you, on the other hand, managed to get me for nothing by just a marriage agreement. Oh, my life is really miserable. If you were selling grilled starch sausage, I could at least tell people openly that this is my husband. But now, if I tell people that my husband is Mu Yuting, the women in our company will definitely hit me to death with their shoes."
"Oh, it seems like being Mrs. Mu is really unfair to you."
Xiao Nuan's face wrinkled up, "That's more than just a grievance, that's extremely aggrieved."
Xiao Nuan even emphasized the word "quite" a little. Her playful expression was so adorable.
This damned woman is so infuriating, she must be punished. Mu Yuting raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Then I will take another concubine to share your pain."
Xiao Nuan hooked her hand around Mu Yuting's neck and pulled it down, their faces almost touching. "You dare? You are mine. If you dare to mess around with other women, I will tell grandma and let her break your legs."
Break my legs? What a cruel woman! Mu Yuting kissed Xiao Nuan's lips fiercely, kissing until her cheeks flushed, kissing until she begged for mercy, kissing until she pushed him away.
"Uncle, no more kissing, if you continue, you will feel uncomfortable again."
Xiao Nuan finished speaking, picked up the juice and quickly ran out of the kitchen. The kitchen was full of ambiguous atmosphere. If she stayed with Mu Yuting like that, the situation would not be optimistic.
She is too embarrassed to go to the gynecology department again. It is too embarrassing.
Mu Yuting looked at Xiao Nuan's running back, with a nice smile on his face. If Xiao Nuan hadn't been feeling uncomfortable, she wouldn't have been able to get out of bed this weekend.
Xiao Nuan stood on the balcony, opened the window, and leaned on the windowsill to look at the scenery outside. The environment of this community is really good, with lush greenery and a stream in the middle, which makes people feel relaxed.
Mu Yuting went to the cupboard to find a pair of socks, put his hands behind his back, walked over to Xiao Nuan and ordered, "Sit on the sofa."
Xiao Nuan was confused, "What's wrong?"
Mu Yuting deliberately said angrily, "Are you stupid? You don't know what's wrong, and you run around barefoot on the floor without even wearing socks. What if you catch a cold?"
Although it was clearly a reproach, Xiao Nuan felt warm inside and secretly proud. Her Mu Yuting was so careful and considerate. She must have saved the galaxy in her previous life.
No, I should save the entire universe to meet him in this life.
"It's okay. It's summer now. It's okay to go barefoot." Xiao Nuan said, and still listened obediently and sat on the small sofa on the balcony.
"It's not okay in the summer. The air conditioner is on in the room, and the floor is cold. It's chilly. If you develop this habit, it's not good for girls. You have to be careful in the future, okay?"
Mu Yuting's tone was like that of a parent doting on his child.
As he spoke, he also sat down on the sofa, put Xiao Nuan's two little feet on his legs, then took out socks from behind like a magic trick and put them on Xiao Nuan carefully.
Xiao Nuan felt embarrassed and said, "I'll do it myself." As she said that, she was about to take her feet off Mu Yuting's legs.
"Don't move." Mu Yuting held Xiao Nuan's feet and looked at her gently. "What's wrong? Are you shy about wearing socks?"
"No, I just think it's inappropriate for a grown man like you to put socks on me."
Mu Yuting put her socks on and patted the soles of her feet. "You're so old-fashioned even though you're so young. I helped you put on your panties that day."
Xiao Nuan blushed with embarrassment, "That's all your fault. Mu Yuting, you stinky rascal, how can you be so mean? In broad daylight, why do you say anything?"
That was several days ago. That night, Xiao Nuan was tormented by this guy so much that she really didn't want to move. She didn't even have the energy to take a shower. She just wanted to sleep.
Mu Yuting was afraid that Xiao Nuan would feel uncomfortable if she fell asleep like that, so he helped her clean up and put on her underwear and pajamas.
We were very affectionate at that time and didn't feel anything wrong. Now that Mu Yuting said it, I feel embarrassed.
This damn little woman is so unreasonable. When I said sweet words to her outside, she said there were too many people outside and we should talk about it when we got home. Now that she is at home, I said sweet words to her and she said it was broad daylight. Does this mean that in this stupid woman's mind, she can only say sweet words after the sun goes down?
Who said that saying sweet words has to depend on the time?
Mu Yuting pulled Xiao Nuan's hand away. Her face was as red as a peach blossom, so adorable. This little woman usually looked fierce and noisy, but after all, she was just a 21-year-old girl, and she even lied about her age on her ID card.
It’s no wonder that a girl of this age is shy when facing a man who is so good at flirting.
Mu Yuting lifted Xiao Nuan's chin with his slender fingers and said lovingly, "Nuan Nuan, you don't have to be shy in front of your husband, okay?"
Xiao Nuan nodded obediently.
Mu Yuting helped Xiao Nuan get a pair of slippers and asked her to put them on. The two of them leaned against the window together to look at the scenery outside.
Mu Yuting took the opportunity to tell Xiao Nuan about his business trip, "Nuan Nuan, I'm going to the United States on Monday."
Xiao Nuan paused, turned around and looked at Mu Yuting, asking questions like a machine gun.
"On a business trip? To the United States, so far away? How long will you be gone? When will you be back? Why so suddenly?"
The person hasn't left yet, but her face is full of reluctance.
Mu Yuting raised the corner of his mouth in a beautiful arc. With so many questions in one breath, where should he start to answer?
"Nuannuan, would you like to go to the United States with me? I'll ask Ye Chen to book your plane ticket."
Xiao Nuan sighed, "That's definitely not possible. I just started working and am still in the internship period. Zhang Yun is trying every possible way to kick me out of the production department. If I ask for leave now, wouldn't it give her the perfect opportunity to take advantage of me? Besides, I still have to keep an eye on Zhang Yun. The information you gave me last time also stated that none of her works were painted by her. I'm still waiting for the opportunity to collect evidence and catch her off guard."
This little guy talks a lot and makes a lot of sense.
"Okay, as you say. Would you be afraid to live alone when I'm not home?"
Xiao Nuan hugged Mu Yuting and acted coquettishly, "I'm not scared, but I feel lonely. How many days can you come back?"
Mu Yuting couldn't stand this little woman's coquettish behavior the most. He felt so jealous. Who would want to go on a business trip after they were newly married?
Mu Yuting has not yet fully understood the situation in the United States, and he has no exact estimate of how many days it will take to resolve it.
"I'll be back as soon as I'm done, okay?"
Xiao Nuan put her arm around his waist, resting her head on his chest, and muttered to herself, "What if I miss you? There's a time difference between the US and here. When you're resting, I'm working, and when I'm resting, you're busy. Can we still talk in private?"
Mu Yuting knocked her head and said, "Silly woman, if you miss me, you can always call me, okay?"
"Okay, got it."
Xiao Nuan never asked about Mu Yuting's work, nor did she ask why he was on a business trip. Mu Yuting also didn't tell Xiao Nuan about Zhang Yinuo. In his opinion, there was no need to tell her about it, as there was nothing serious in the first place. He was afraid that Xiao Nuan would think too much if he told her.
