Chapter 633: 181 Serious enough_4

Qin Haiming led her to the living room and had her sit down, while Auntie happily brought out some fruit and pastries, along with drinks.

"Miss hasn’t come back for a long time!"

"Yes! How have you been?"

Qin Mu asked with a smile!

"I’ve been well! Everyone’s doing quite alright. We’ve just missed you a lot, Miss, and hope you can come home more often!"

Auntie stood beside her, clasping her hands and pouring out her heart to her.

Qin Mu could only respond with a smile.

"Especially Mr. Mayor, he’s actually been looking forward to your return all the time."

After glancing at Qin Haiming, Auntie added another sentence.

"You go and prepare dinner!"

Without letting her say more, Qin Haiming dismissed Auntie, and she obediently left.

Qin Mu then lowered her head again, her smile gradually fading from her face.

"Uncle Wang’s health has recovered pretty well!"

Qin Mu broke the silence that hung in the living room.

"Yes! He was just discharged from the hospital today, and he wanted to celebrate by having a meal together as a family."

Qin Haiming revealed the reason she was called back.

Qin Mu didn’t say much. She hadn’t actually planned on staying for dinner, but now...

"I’ll send a message to Mu Yichen!"

Qin Mu said this to him while searching for her phone in her bag.

Qin Haiming slightly looked up at her rummaging for her phone, waiting with some anticipation.

Mu Yichen was still in a meeting. His phone was on the table, but on silent mode. Noticing the screen light up, he glanced at it. The name that flickered by seemed to be his wife’s. Bored as he was, he picked it up to take a look.

In the tense meeting room at the hotel’s upper level, the atmosphere lightened slightly when he suddenly checked his phone.

The F&B executive was continuing to report, with everyone else listening intently, except for Su Zhen who was silently observing the man sitting in front. They were separated by several people, but this only made it easier for Su Zhen to watch him.

Lately, it seemed their meetings were the only times they met.

Seeing the message from Qin Mu saying they would eat at the Qin Family’s home, Mu Yichen replied, "I’ll come over later!"

After reading his message, Qin Mu looked up, just as Qin Haiming was expectantly watching her, which suddenly made the atmosphere a bit tense.

"Mu Yichen says he will come over tonight for dinner."

Taking a deep breath, Qin Mu finally mentioned it to him.

"Good! Good! I’ll go check on the kitchen!"

Qin Haiming never imagined that there would come a day when he could eat calmly with his daughter and son-in-law, suddenly feeling at a loss as to where to place his hands, so he stood up and headed to the kitchen with his head down.

Qin Mu sat there watching Qin Haiming’s somewhat sorrowful back, suddenly feeling a twinge of sadness at the tip of her nose.

But in the end, she didn’t follow him, only replying to Mu Yichen, "Tell mom and dad!"

"As you wish!"

Mu Yichen responded, and as he lifted his head, his alert gaze caught Su Zhen, who was watching him from across the room.

Su Zhen pretended to lower her gaze casually, but he stared straight at the direction where Su Zhen was for a while before looking away.

After the meeting, Su Zhen had planned to be the last one to leave, thinking Mu Yichen would do the same.

Far from it, as soon as the meeting ended Mu Yichen stood up and left first. She quickly gathered her materials and hurried after him, by which time several executives had already left. She tried to catch up with Mu Yichen’s long strides, "Mr. Mu!"

Mu Yichen didn’t answer, and she had to nearly run to keep pace with him, "My father has left, and he made me promise to thank you for your hospitality!"

"Hmm! As the host of Rongcheng, it’s only right for me to welcome Mayor Su."

"Still, I’m very grateful!"

Already at the CEO’s private elevator, he turned and looked at her when he saw she was still following, "This is the executive elevator, doesn’t Miss Su know?"

Startled, Su Zhen blushed furiously at his words.

He pressed the elevator button and stepped in with brisk strides, and when he turned, the unapproachable coldness on his face and the aura of inviolable authority were enough to make her feel ashamed.

That feeling of humiliating oneself suddenly assaulted her restrained heart.

As the elevator doors closed, other executives came over, and she reluctantly retreated to their dedicated elevator.

"Miss Su is truly devoted to our Mr. Mu!"

A straightforwardly handsome colleague commented.

Glancing at him, Su Zhen replied, "How can Manager Wang tell that I’m devoted to Mr. Mu? I was just giving my thanks."

"Oh? What kind favor did the CEO do for Miss Su that warranted your thanks?"

A female colleague looked at her curiously as well.

When the elevator arrived, everyone entered together, the bustling inside making Su Zhen feel almost breathless.

No one here knew she was the treasured daughter of D City’s leader, she had promised Mu Yichen not to tell, and if she did now, it would be like slapping her own face, so she could only endure it.
