Chapter 240 His Unconditional Trust in Her
Who else invites people to team-building activities with such a forceful attitude?
Song Chi felt a little uncomfortable, and his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Mu Yin took her hand, which was under the table.
Song Chi looked at him, and the two locked eyes for a moment.
The atmosphere became very subtle.
Zhang Yuqi smiled and said, "Old classmate, do you look down on me, or do you think I have ulterior motives, which is why I've repeatedly refused you? In your eyes, am I that kind of person?"
He was clearly even angrier.
"When your studio was embroiled in controversy, I was the first to stand up for you. I was much more proactive than your family!"
At this point, he raised an eyebrow and looked at Mu Yin.
That expression was as if to say, 'Even one of my classmates can help you, but your husband didn't say a word the whole time. He's obviously useless!'
Upon seeing this, Song Chi immediately understood and was somewhat speechless.
Her uncle has been quietly helping her a lot, so he's not useless at all.
Faced with Zhang Yuqi's provocation, Mu Yin sneered and ignored him.
Whether he's useful or not, his darling wife knows better than anyone else!
Zhang Yuqi continued, "Old classmate, is our cooperation not going well? After our cooperation ends, I will even give you an extra 100,000 yuan bonus according to the contract. If I wanted to harm you, would I have waited until now?"
Song Chi: "..."
She lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought.
Initially, the couple both thought Zhang Yuqi was strange and were wary of him at all times. Later, when her studio ran into trouble, he was indeed the first person to stand up for her. Moreover, he did not deliberately make things difficult for her in their collaborations.
If she continues to be wary, it will make her seem petty.
Besides, didn't he say that family members could bring their children?
With her husband by her side, she'll never worry about being in danger!
Besides, who knows what other collaborations they might have in the future? Although I find it strange, who would turn down money?
After thinking it over, Song Chi looked at his uncle, silently asking for his opinion.
Upon seeing this, Mu Yin immediately understood.
He smiled gently at her, his eyes seeming to say, "Baby, it's up to you!"
His unconditional trust in her sent a warm feeling through her heart.
She gave him a sweet smile.
She turned her head again and looked at Zhang Yuqi.
Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Zhang Yuqi angrily crossed his arms over his chest.
"Old classmate, you're really not giving me any face!"
"Mr. Zhang, thank you for your kind invitation. My husband and I will be there tomorrow."
Zhang Wanru, who had been silent to the side, had a look of excitement in her eyes when she heard that she had agreed.
She was so excited she could barely contain herself.
Zhang Yuqi, standing to the side, secretly gave her a light kick. Only then did Zhang Wanru realize that she was about to be exposed. She quickly lowered her head to hide the excitement in her eyes.
However, Mu Yin still noticed the emotions in her eyes.
Mu Yin sneered inwardly, pretending not to see it, but he had already made a plan in his mind.
Zhang Yuqi said enthusiastically, "Old classmate, that's great! We're leaving at 5 pm tomorrow, so don't stand me up!"
"Since I promised, I won't break my promise!"
"Cheers to a great team-building activity!"
Zhang Yuqi raised his glass, deliberately trying to liven up the atmosphere.
Song Chi and Mu Yin exchanged a glance, then raised their glasses in unison, which contained juice, and clinked glasses with each other.
Have a great team building activity!
After taking a few sips, Zhang Yuqi livened up the atmosphere and urged everyone to continue eating.
Mu Yin then served Song Chi some food: "Baby, you must be starving, eat up."
Song Chi shook his head: "Uncle, I don't want to eat, you eat first."
"I can't eat anymore anyway, I'm not eating, you eat."
"Uncle, this isn't a solution. How about trying some lighter food?"
"Alright."
Song Chi called over a waiter and ordered some light dishes, as well as a bowl of white porridge.
While they were ordering food, they didn't notice the eye contact between the Zhang siblings.
Zhang Yuqi gave Zhang Wanru a look, as if to say something.
'Don't be so obvious. You should try to get closer to Song Chi first.'
Zhang Wanru understood. She pouted, looking down on Song Chi from the bottom of her heart.
But her brother is better at planning than she is, so she has no choice but to listen to him.
Over here, Song Chi and Mu Yin have ordered their food.
As soon as Song Chi looked up, he met Zhang Wanru's gaze.
His gaze was filled with jealousy and hatred.
Song Chi raised an eyebrow and deliberately moved closer to Mu Yin.
She said in a coquettish tone, "Uncle, maybe if you eat something light, you won't throw up."
She threw herself into his arms, and the old man grinned foolishly.
"Honey, do you want me to stop throwing up?"
"Of course, it's so uncomfortable for you to throw up!"
"Okay, whatever you wish for, I hope all your wishes come true."
The old man's words sounded a bit convoluted, but they were so full of affection.
Song Chi felt a warm feeling in her heart, and a sweet smile couldn't help but appear on her lips.
The two of them were so affectionate and lovey-dovey.
She looked at Zhang Wanru, slightly raised her chin, and looked as if she were declaring her ownership.
Zhang Wanru was furious.
Song Chi thought to himself: You're jealous of her, aren't you? Then let yourself get angry to death!
Mu Yin knew exactly what she was up to.
Seeing that she cared about him, he was overjoyed and simply indulged her in everything, even going so far as to show affection for her!
What Song Chi didn't notice was that Mu Yin was also secretly observing Zhang Yuqi's expression.
Although Zhang Yuqi was much more reserved than Zhang Wanru, Mu Yin's sharp eyes could see through him and he couldn't hide anything.
Especially when they were showing affection, Mu Yin noticed the fleeting obsession and madness in Zhang Yuqi's eyes.
He raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with smugness.
Zhang Yuqi suffered a heart attack!
The couple is very much in sync when it comes to making their love rivals furious.
The atmosphere became very subtle.
Zhang Yuqi took a deep breath, suppressing the complex emotions in his heart.
He then gave Zhang Wanru a wink.
Zhang Wanru understood.
She looked at Song Chi, her smile somewhat forced.
"Um... Miss Song, let me toast you. I offended you because of some misunderstandings before. I had a bad temper before, so please don't hold it against me."
As she spoke, she raised her glass to her.
Song Chi raised an eyebrow, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with her.
"Miss Zhang, I'll toast you with juice instead of wine. Since you call my uncle 'brother,' then you're like my sister. As the older sister, it's only natural that I take good care of my sister with her bad temper."
However, you're a grown man now, you should really tone down your temper. After all, we're all adults in society, so who's going to give in to whom, right?
Song Chi knew she was eyeing her uncle, so she was subtly teaching her a lesson.
Zhang Wanru was scolded again, and she was very angry, but she put on a fake smile.
“Sister is right.”
Song Chi also gave a forced smile, as if to say, "This kid is teachable!"
Zhang Yuqi laughed and said, "That's more like it! You two should call each other sisters. Wanru, when my old classmate goes on a team-building trip tomorrow, please take good care of her!"
Zhang Wanru smiled and said, "Of course, I will take good care of my sister!"
Her smile concealed a knife, and her eyes were icy cold.
Song Chi was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore, so he didn't see the look in her eyes, but Mu Yin did, and his gaze darkened.
At the dinner table, four people, each with their own thoughts.
This dinner party was like a trap, a pit set to see who would fall into it...
