Mr. Mu Proposed Again Today-Chapter 65 - A Month Away_1

Chapter 65: Chapter 65 A Month Away_1

Chapter 65 -65 A Month Away_1

Mu Yingchen irritably threw the document he held onto the table, stood up, went to the liquor cabinet to pour himself a glass of wine, and raised his hand to down it in one go.

Then he poured another glass and walked over to the viewing platform, gazing at the distant scenery dotted with dim lights, his hands with distinctly articulated bones slowly swirling the crystal glass.

It had been two days, she hadn’t come to the company for two days.

He thought that after that night, he could slowly calm himself down, but not seeing her for two days made him even more irritable and restless.

If what she said that day was true, then what about him? But he clearly—

He pulled out his phone, quickly pressed it twice, then stopped abruptly and put the phone away.

Knock knock—

Suddenly, there came a knock at the door, and he immediately composed himself, masking his irritable expression before coldly uttering the word “enter.”

Aisha walked in and, looking at the tall figure by the viewing platform, said, “Mr. Mu, the plane is ready for departure.”

“Mhm,” he quietly nodded, drained the glass of wine, and elegantly walked towards the exit.

Su Wanxia had stayed at home for two whole days, her emotions gradually returning to calm. On the third day, she went to work at the company as usual.

Meng Can saw her and asked with concern, “Summer, why didn’t you come to the company these past two days?”

Su Wanxia smiled at him, “I wasn’t feeling well, so I rested at home for a couple of days.”

“You’re okay now, right?”

“I’m fine now.”

Meng Can looked relieved, “That’s good.”

Then, as if remembering something, he said, “Right, the design effects you prepared last time, didn’t you take them to show to Mr. Mu? How did it go? Are they confirmed yet?”

Reminded by Meng Can, Su Wanxia recalled that those materials were still in Mu Yingchen’s office. She had originally gone to ask him about them, but an argument had ensued. Overwhelmed with sadness when she left, she had forgotten to collect them, not to mention, Mu Yingchen was not in the office when she had left.

She sighed in distress, “I haven’t gone to pick them up yet.” What should she do, did she have to go see him again now?

“Oh, haha, as soon as possible then. The initial outline on my end is already set. We’ll discuss it later!”

“Okay,” Su Wanxia nodded.

“I’m going back to my office then.”

“Sure.”

After Meng Can left, Su Wanxia rubbed her temples with a bit of frustration. After pondering for a while, she picked up the direct line phone and dialed a string of numbers. The call was answered after just one ring.

She couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Was this person always staring at the phone?

“Yo, Wanxia, as soon as I saw this number was from your office, I hurried to answer. Heh, am I efficient or what!” Ji Hua chattered on in his usual manner.

Su Wanxia shook her head helplessly, “Okay, I’m calling you about something serious.”

“What’s up?”

“Isn’t the Bali Island project your responsibility?” Su Wanxia asked.

“Yeah, it is my responsibility, what about it?” Ji Hua seemed a bit confused.

“Then, did you look at the materials I gave to Mu, um, to your elder brother?”

Upon hearing this, Ji Hua immediately shook his head like a bobblehead toy, “I don’t know, don’t ask me, you gave it to him, you should ask him for it!”

Listening to Ji Hua say this, Su Wanxia suddenly became annoyed, “If you’re responsible, shouldn’t I be asking you? Otherwise, you go and check out the materials I gave your elder brother, let me know if they’re okay, and if not, I can immediately revise them. Don’t drag your feet, do you know how much time you’re wasting?”

Ji Hua was instantly bewildered, after all this back and forth, it turned out that this couple was having a conflict, and he was made the scapegoat! He thought about how cold his elder brother’s demeanor had been these past few days, enough to freeze someone to death, so this was the reason.

“Hey, hey, Wanxia, don’t get worked up. I can’t make decisions about the materials you gave my elder brother, how about this, wait for him to come back, and when he does, you can ask him, okay?”

The more Su Wanxia listened, the deeper her frown became, “Wait for him to come back?”

“Yes”

“Where did he go?” Su Wanxia was perplexed.

Suddenly, Ji Hua exclaimed, “You don’t know? Didn’t my brother tell you where he was going?”

Su Wanxia’s heart tightened suddenly, perhaps from now on he wouldn’t tell her wherever he went.

“No,” she uttered flatly, then added, “How long until he returns?” She was in a hurry.

Ji Hua hadn’t expected that his elder brother really hadn’t informed Su Wanxia of his departure, and he instantly felt that he had misspoken, “At least a month.”

“At least a month?” Su Wanxia really couldn’t understand what Mu Yingchen was up to that would take so long.

Ji Hua gave a dry laugh, “Yeah,” then as if remembering something, he added, “Every year, my elder brother goes to visit the old man for a while, and by the way, he deals with some business at those places, so at least a month,” he thought Wanxia definitely wanted to know where his elder brother had gone, and since she seemed too embarrassed to ask, he wanted to be the good guy and tell her.

After hearing Ji Hua’s words, Su Wanxia quietly let go of her worries, “Alright, let’s leave it at that,” and then she hung up the phone.

Ji Hua had wanted to say something more, but Su Wanxia had already hung up the call. He made a face, thinking it was like dismantling a bridge after crossing the river.

After hanging up, Su Wanxia’s fingers tapped lightly on the desktop, her brows furrowed in thought. Mu Yingchen wouldn’t return for a month, so what about her situation? Really, he left without handing over work properly, leaving her unable to proceed with her job.

After thinking for a long while, as if she had made up her mind, she slapped the desk, “Oh well, the documents have been with him for so long without a word from him, there should be no problems, and besides, she felt confident about her design proposal. For now, she would proceed with this style, and if he really didn’t like it upon his return, she could make changes then.”

Having resolved this, she stopped obsessing and began to work. In fact, when she had heard from Ji Hua that he wouldn’t be back for a month, her heart suddenly lightened a great deal; perhaps his absence would allow her to completely adjust her emotions.

Busy times always pass quickly, and before she knew it, it was time to leave work. Su Wanxia stretched, stood up from the swivel chair, organized the pile of materials on her desk, and started packing her things to leave.

Just as she reached the parking lot, a car’s headlights suddenly turned on, blinding her. She squinted through her fingers to see the car’s lights flicker twice, then go out.

Ding Nianzi, seeing Su Wanxia looking in her direction, smiled smugly, got out of her car, and sashayed towards Su Wanxia.

Su Wanxia narrowed her eyes, a cold smirk forming at the corner of her mouth, “Annoying fly, truly ubiquitous.”

“Su Wanxia, long time no see, what a pity. I didn’t get to see you at Mu Feng’s wedding, is your bestie angry with you?” Ding Nianzi looked at Su Wanxia with an air of superiority, her face full of pride.

“Ha, whether my bestie is angry or not, what’s it to you? Besides, I’m glad I didn’t go. Otherwise, seeing a face that spoils one’s appetite might have made me lose my lunch. Really, kudos to you for going out of your way to attend my bestie’s wedding, such courage, thanks a lot—” Su Wanxia spoke unhurriedly, turning Ding Nianzi’s heavily made-up face green with anger.
