Chapter 77 -77: They Say That Person Is Extraordinary_1
The next day, Su Wanxia arrived at the office amid everyone’s strange gazes, and let out a sigh as she sat in the swivel chair. Facing so many odd looks every day was truly uncomfortable.
At lunchtime, she had intended to go out for a meal, but then Kang Xiaolan showed up.
“Wanxia, this is the lunch I brought you. I cooked it myself; give it a try.” Kang Xiaolan was all smiles, radiating happiness.
Su Wanxia raised an eyebrow, “So today I’m benefitting from Mu Feng’s generosity?”
“What are you talking about? I just wanted to come see you, okay?”
Su Wanxia glanced at her slightly protruding belly and frowned, “If you’re like this, can you still manage to cook? Isn’t it tough?”
“It’s no big deal, cooking a meal isn’t exhausting. Besides, it’s boring being alone,” Kang Xiaolan whined pitifully.
“Even if you love Mu Feng, you have to think about the baby, right?” Su Wanxia knew Kang Xiaolan must be addicted to delivering these lovingly made meals.
“Alright already, I know. I’ll cook less from now on. Eat before it gets cold and loses its flavor,” Kang Xiaolan urged.
Shrugging her shoulders to show her speechlessness, Su Wanxia then opened the meal box that Kang Xiaolan brought and began to eat.
And she had to admit, Kang Xiaolan’s cooking skills were far superior to her own—it wasn’t just an empty compliment.

As she watched Su Wanxia eat with relish, Kang Xiaolan’s voice carried a note of concern, “Wanxia, are you alright?”
Su Wanxia looked up, puzzled, “I’m fine, why?”
“Uh, don’t you know?” Kang Xiaolan asked cautiously.
“Know what?” Su Wanxia was confused.
“The woman that Mu Yingchen brought back—-” Kang Xiaolan faltered, unable to finish her sentence.
Then it clicked for Su Wanxia, who intoned without showing any emotion, “You mean the woman he brought back?”
“Mhm,” nodded Kang Xiaolan.
She sighed softly, “What about her?” Su Wanxia had known from the start that woman wouldn’t just settle for being a secretary—perhaps Mu Yingchen knew this as well.
“Today, when I visited the top-floor office, I overheard them saying that the woman ran to the president’s office at least eight times this morning alone—pouring boiling water, delivering coffee—as clear as day, she’s angling for Mu Yingchen!” Kang Xiaolan’s tone turned indignant by the end.
Su Wanxia’s heart skipped a beat and she let her eyelids droop a bit hopelessly. What she disliked most were the women who flocked around Mu Yingchen; she was someone petty and possessive, she always had been and she was still the same now.
But facing these women who eyed Mu Yingchen, she felt powerless and unable to do anything.
Her only hope was for Mu Yingchen’s unwavering affection.
“Many people have their eyes on Mu Yingchen,” Su Wanxia said flatly.
“But I’ve met that woman; she’s clearly not just a minor character.”
Su Wanxia furrowed her brow. Ji Hua said that the woman was no simple character, Kang Xiaolan also said the same, but right now, she didn’t want to see how complicated that woman was. She feared she couldn’t control her petty heart.
“Xiaolan, Mu Yingchen doesn’t care about her, does he?” She sounded as if she was asking Kang Xiaolan, but also as if reassuring herself.
“Wanxia, Mu Yingchen may not care, but if that woman stirs up some trouble, it’ll still be you who ends up hurt,” Kang Xiaolan spoke bluntly.
Su Wanxia’s heart trembled, and she couldn’t utter a word.
Kang Xiaolan continued, “We all know about the affair between Ji Hua and Yining. Actually, Ji Hua can’t be entirely blamed, but after all, it was his negligence that let another woman take advantage of his unguarded moment and climb into his bed. So, Wanxia, sometimes, some things are unpredictable, and it’s not just his love for you that can control everything.”
Kang Xiaolan was truly worried. Ever since Wanxia returned to the country, she had been indifferent to everything, and particularly nonchalant and uncompetitive towards Mu Yingchen, not even inquiring about matters. If this continued, no one could predict what might happen unexpectedly, just like this time—no one expected Mu Yingchen to bring someone back, and it was a woman who was eyeing him hungrily.
“Xiaolan, stop talking,” Su Wanxia cut off Kang Xiaolan before she could continue. Wanxia had thought about these issues too, but she dared not delve deeper into them. She chose to ignore the lurking dangers in her subconscious, wanting only to stay quietly by his side.
“I need to say it, if we don’t lay out these matters, you won’t be anxious, and you won’t realize the situation you’re in. I really want to crack open your head to see what you’re thinking. Since you want to be with him, why not fight for it? You even won over such a cold and indifferent man back then, and he’s still utterly devoted to you now. What exactly are you hesitating about?” Kang Xiaolan looked at her, puzzled.
“I—let me think about it,” Su Wanxia said, raising her hand to her temple, her expression twisted.
“Wanxia, I say all this not to upset you,” Kang Xiaolan said.
Su Wanxia looked up, “How could I? I won’t mind anything you say. I know you mean well.”
“I just want all of us sisters to be happy,” Kang Xiaolan added.
“I know, you are pregnant now, don’t overthink,” Su Wanxia reassured her.
“Okay, then I’ll leave now,” Kang Xiaolan stood up and said to Su Wanxia.
“I’ll see you out.”
After seeing off Kang Xiaolan, Su Wanxia returned to the office, feeling somewhat tired.
She stood forlornly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her gaze drifting aimlessly into the distance. What was the right thing to do after all?
She felt as though she had fallen into a marsh and no matter how she struggled, she couldn’t free herself.
With a long sigh, she sat back down wearily in the chair. Perhaps she should go and see what that person was really like.
Going to the president’s office eight times in one morning was certainly no simple feat.
At three in the afternoon, Su Wanxia took some documents to the president’s office. Secretary Aisha and the other secretaries were somewhat shocked to see her.
She gave a bitter smile—it seemed that many people thought she had been abandoned by Mu Yingchen.
“Is President Mu in?” she asked Aisha.
“Yes, Miss Su,” Aisha responded, looking somewhat awkward.
She instantly understood. From Aisha’s expression, that woman was probably in the president’s office now.
She nodded at Aisha and walked towards the president’s office with composure, then pushed open the door without hesitation.
The moment the door swung open, her heart was pounding. For some reason, she felt afraid—afraid that she would see something she didn’t want to see.
Finally, as the door swung wide, she stood at the threshold and gazed inside intently. The focused man in front of the computer caught her eye.
She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped inside, while Mu Yingchen also looked up at her.
After walking in, her gaze instinctively searched the room and eventually landed on a figure beside the bookshelf.
Bai Yudie, hearing the commotion, turned to look at Su Wanxia. Their gazes collided in an instant, silently creating an undercurrent.
