Chapter 170: Chapter 170: What’s Wrong with Having Two Sons?
Gleaming black scales, a triangular head—it was clearly highly venomous!
The little snake that had been knocked to the ground earlier by Lu Xining with a stone was now thoroughly enraged.
Just as it was about to launch an attack on Lu Xining, following her scent, it detected an even stronger aroma emanating from someone else.
The snake immediately rose up and darted towards the other side.
Shen Moli let out a sharp scream when she noticed the venomous snake rapidly swimming toward her, and she was so frightened that she dared not move a muscle.
The people around were also startled by the sudden situation and had no time to react.
The secretary standing next to Qin Luyao hastily picked up a branch and threw it, which completely infuriated the snake!
At the critical moment!
Ji Muye deftly pulled out the hairpin Lu Xining was wearing on her head and, with swift and precise movements, threw it at the snake’s vital spot. It was fast and accurate—a direct hit!
From his early years, Ji Muye had always scored full marks in all dart and archery activities, never missing the mark.
And this time was no exception!
The snake, which had raised its body and was about to strike Shen Moli, had its vitals pinned to the ground by the hairpin.
In the moments before its death, the snake’s body continued to twist and turn, seemingly unable to comprehend why it had met such an abrupt end.
Ji Muye acted so swiftly that he didn’t even notice that he had accidentally pulled out a few strands of Lu Xining’s hair, causing a brief moment of pain where the hair connected to the scalp. Lu Xining was momentarily stunned.
She, and everyone else, clearly saw Ji Muye’s protective move on behalf of the female secretary, at the cost of dirtying her favorite hairpin.
Ji Muye: “Sorry, I’ll compensate you with a new one.”
Shen Moli was an employee of Shi’an Group; as the boss, Ji Muye couldn’t just ignore an employee’s peril.
Lu Xining’s elegantly pinned hair thus came undone, draping down her back like satin. She appeared ethereal with her hair down, compared to the warm and proficient look when it was tied up.
That is, if she weren’t scowling.
Lu Nuonuo inherited her reverence for hair from Lu Xining.
With such long hair, it was easy to shed strands when combing or washing, and today, having it plucked made Lu Xining glare fiercely at Ji Muye.
Seeing Ji Muye’s thick, dark hair, she couldn’t resist making a biting remark, “More than the hairpin, I care about the strands of hair you’ve pulled out.”
A girl’s hair, each strand is precious!
Ji Muye sensed the anger emanating from her and, as his gaze fell upon her lush, black, lustrous hair, he pursed his lips, feeling slightly guilty.
He leaned down towards her and whispered, “Should I give them back to you then?”
Lu Xining: “Hmph…”
His casual reply wouldn’t have bothered him if Lu Xining really did pull his hair; however, the people who heard him say this cast dubious glances at Lu Xining.
Disgusted, Lu Xining stepped back: “Let’s not get involved.”
Seeing that she made no move to approach, Ji Muye stood back up straight. Meanwhile, his male secretary had already gone to deal with the snake.
Once Shen Moli had regained her composure, she exchanged a look with Qin Luyao.
Thankfully, they had only arranged for one trained venomous snake; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
She thought the exchange of glances between her and Qin Luyao had been well-concealed, not realizing it had been noticed by a male assistant who had been keeping an eye on her.
He quietly took note of the oddity, planning to report back to Zhou Jiawang.
After Lu Xining pushed away the two men, she had been standing in a “Golden Rooster” stance. Seeing the snake killed by Ji Muye’s hairpin, she once again avoided his outstretched hand.
She tentatively took a few steps forward.
Instantly, she felt a piercing pain in her ankle.
Ji Muye’s heart tightened, and he quickly supported her, “Lu Xining, do I have a virus on me? Why are you so repelled by me?”
In her heart, Lu Xining mused: He was far worse than a virus—once contaminated, it was easy to suffer.
She had come to realize that whoever wanted to bear that suffering could do so.
She certainly did not wish to endure it anymore.
Lu Xining waved her hand, further distancing the two of them.
She spoke slowly, “Men and women should not touch hands. President Ji, it’s better to keep some distance between us.”
Men and women should not touch hands?
The words seemed to lodge in Ji Muye’s throat, causing him great distress.
He leaned down close to Lu Xining’s ear, his voice lowered to a gritted whisper, “Do I need to remind you that you and I, we’ve been married for five years and have birthed two sons?”
The intensely dominating scent of the man hit Lu Xining full in the face, and she uncomfortably furrowed her brows, her expression changing imperceptibly.
She glanced at the others discussing how a poisonous snake could appear here, not bothering to hide the disdain in her eyes for Ji Muye.
Lu Xining’s sharp tongue burst forth, not giving Ji Muye any face.
“If I were a country, I’d crack open your brain and study it carefully to see what kind of stupid material it’s made of!”
She just couldn’t understand!
How could this man, so capable in his work and with eight thousand schemes at the negotiation table, be like a primary school student when it came to life?
Ji Muye clenched his teeth, “Lu Xining!”
“Don’t shout, I know my name is pleasant to hear, but it can’t withstand you shouting it over and over, if you have good teeth, go eat a few more walnuts, and while you’re at it, nourish your brain.”
When it came to verbal sparring, Ji Muye couldn’t beat Lu Xining.
She glanced at Shen Molin who was sneakily watching her from across the table and couldn’t help but sigh, Ji Muye was like the only tender flower in the vast grassland, attracting all the bees wanting to gather nectar and pollinate within a hundred miles.
Liu Xixi left, and then Shen Molin came, who knows who would be next.

The thing is, they had been divorced for over eight hundred days!
Her daughter was nearly two years old!
Any woman who wanted to acquire the status of Mrs. Ji Muye would always direct their spears at her, the ex-wife!
Could it be that they think whether Ji Muye gives them status or not is up to her to decide?
Lu Xining took a deep breath and kept telling herself in her heart that she must remain graceful, she couldn’t lose face in public.
She spoke extremely fast, but every word was crystal clear, even revealing the chill towards him distinctly.
“I remind you, we are divorced!”
“So what if we have two sons? Even if we had two hundred children, our relationship right now is that of men and women who should not touch each other!”
Ji Muye looked down at her and couldn’t get a word in.
Zhou Jiawang, who was close to them, heard the entire exchange and his thick, dark lashes trembled slightly as he discreetly stepped back, deciding not to fuel Lu Xining’s anger at this moment.
He was well aware that until he made amends for the hurt he had caused her in his family home, in her eyes, he was no better than Ji Muye.
Lu Xining shifted her injured ankle gently.
She chose to walk by herself!
Forget relying on any man, relying on herself was the most important!
At that moment, the Lu Family’s female bodyguard silently extended her arm, and Lu Xining used it for support, quickly making her way to where the ferry car was parked.
Due to the snake incident, this scouting mission was over.
Shen Molin, who was supposed to ride in the passenger seat, was directly asked to step down by Ma Sai, “Secretary Shen, this is my seat.”
Shen Molin paused, “I have work that I need to report to President Ji.”
After saying this, she looked at Ji Muye’s face, only to meet a pair of cold and indifferent eyes, staring at her starkly.
Ji Muye: “Secretary Shen, from now on, you’re responsible for internal company affairs, and the rest will be transferred to Yan Dong.”
Next week, Ji Muye was going abroad on a business trip.
If Yan Dong hadn’t recovered by then, it would be Shen Molin and the current male secretary who would accompany him. She pressed her fingertips into her palm, nodded knowingly, and turned to go to the car behind them.
Ma Sai took the passenger seat, and the driver started the car promptly.
Several cars arrived at the hotel parking lot at the same time, and Ji Muye’s face was terribly dark the entire way.
He hadn’t yet gotten out of the car when the window was tapped on, his gaze drifted to the smiling woman outside the window, and his slender fingers touched the door edge.
Ji Muye: “What’s the…,” matter.
As the window rolled down and before he finished speaking, he felt a pain on his scalp, the woman’s slender fingertips held several strands of black hair.
Lu Xining’s force just now wasn’t small.
Definitely stronger than the force Ji Muye used to pull out her hair!
And the pain was most definitely stronger!
Seeing the few strands of black hair in her palm, the stifled anger in Lu Xining’s heart dissipated right away.
Indeed, anger needs to be released on the spot!
She considered Ji Muye’s face, didn’t grab his hair directly on the scouting site, so this was all the punishment the man deserved.
Lu Xining lifted the corners of her mouth, “What goes around, comes around.”
He always used some hair gel for formal occasions, and Lu Xining felt the slight hardness of the hair gel in the palm of her hand, disgustingly tossing it away.
Ji Muye: “…”
