His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 158 - TAKING INITIATIVE

Murong Yue looked composed and calm. However, her heart was beating in a fast and irregular rhythm. She felt her breath becoming short, and her body felt hot. She had never felt so nervous before in her life. But she was not willing to retreat.

"I heard that our CEO was in Changeling. I could not leave without saying hello." She responded to Mo Ge with a smile.

She turned to Qi Han with a graceful and pleasant expression. He looked at her, but his eyes seemed a little dazed. It was obvious that his mind was elsewhere. Murong Yue's smile crumbled a little at the lack of attention. Still, she did not panic.

She understood that it would not be easy. Unfortunately, she did not know how to proceed.

"Good evening, gentlemen." A casual and flippant voice joined the conversation.

The three men turned to the door while Murong Yue sighed in relief. She had been worried that Su Qiao would not come in time. It would have been difficult for her to manage anything if she was alone.

"Oh, what have we done to deserve the company of two beautiful women?" Mo Ge, who did not have an off button, smiled like a wolf.

Su Qiao showed distaste at this man's flirtatious nature. However, she had promised to help Murong Yue. She was not a person who would go back on her word. Therefore, even if it meant sharing a drink with the playboy, she would not back down.

"Why aren't you inviting us for a drink?" She asked with a somewhat coy smile.

Su Qiao had a tomboyish vibe. Therefore, even when she attempted to be coy, she did not look like a simpering damsel. She only looked like a rogue, trying to trick innocent men. Mo Ge's eyes flickered with interest.

He knew of Su Qiao, but they were not acquaintances or friends. Therefore, this was the first time he had truly interacted with her. He could not help feeling like he had taken in a fresh breath of air.

"It would be our honour to have your company." He smiled wider.

Su Qiao wanted to poke out those lascivious eyes, lingering on her. However, she could only breathe in and out and keep smiling. She hoped that this entire affair would be over soon. She felt embarrassed acting like a flirtatious woman.

"Yue'er, why don't you sit with CEO Qi?" She spoke naturally, even though she was protesting inside.

Qi Han broke from his daze and finally saw the new people in the room with a clear mind. He felt a little disgruntled because he did not want to drink with women who were not his angel. However, he could not chase them out.

After all, their status was completely different from the women who had been entertaining them earlier. In simple terms, these two women were part of their Supreme City social circle. Nothing good could come out of offending them, even if they could afford to offend. Gossip always got around quite quickly, and if they behaved poorly towards the ladies, they might be the losers.

Murong Yue felt a little awkward, but Su Qiao pushed her forward. She decided to strengthen her resolve since things have gotten this far. If she continued waiting for something to happen, her wishes might not come true.

"Pardon for the intrusion, CEO Qi." Murong Yue smiled a little at him before sitting next to him.

Qi Han smiled back, causing her to be dazed. She felt like the sun had shone on her face.

"It is my pleasure to have your company. After all, you are my valued employee." Qi Han said smoothly.

He did not like to have too much close contact with socialites from Supreme City. Dating a woman from their social circle would always get too complicated because they expected a proposal before the fifth date. He preferred to have flings with people who understood that he was not going to settle down.

Murong Yue could feel that Qi Han was trying to put distance between them. Her face fell immediately because she did not know how to make him view her differently. She looked at Su Qiao for help. The other girl felt a little annoyed. How could this girl hope to pursue Qi Han if she did not take even a little initiative without her help?

"Why don't we forget, who is who and drink like friends, huh? I will go over and drink with Wang Che." Su Qiao aid, clapping her hands enthusiastically.

Mo Ge looked at the woman and felt that she was too hateful. Obviously, Wang Che had been silent the entire time as if he did not notice them. If it was not for him, things would have been awkward for the two of them. Now that they had settled in, she wanted to toss him away.

He felt like a scorned lover.

"Miss Su, why don't you drink with Mo Ge? I am afraid that I will not be good company." Wang Che said with his unfailing gentle demeanour.

Su Qiao felt embarrassed about the immediate rejection. Normally, she would have laughed off this type of small matter because she did not have a delicate heart. However, she had a small crush on Wang Che. He was the only man who had captured her attention due to his prince-like aura. She had always felt that he was the most perfect man on earth. He was not uncouth and basic like Mo Ge.

Now, it seemed that he did not put her in his eyes. He treated her like everyone else. She felt enraged in her heart as his polite but cold rejection echoed in her mind.

"Don't mind him, beautiful lady. He is too repressed to have fun." Mo Ge laughed and ignored the sharp gaze that Wang Che sent him.

With these words, Su Qiao had no choice but to settle down next to Mo Ge. She accepted a fresh drink which he poured out for her, and she drank it with a calm face, even though her heart was filled with resentment at the situation.

Beside them, Qi Han offered a drink to the blushing Murong Yue. She sipped on it with a smile. In her heart, she believed that he would fall for her in no time. All she needed was to create opportunities like these to meet with him. If there was anything she believed in, it was her charm.

She would bet everything on him because he was the person in her heart. Her mind drifted to her conversation with her father and Lu Liang about her position and how she could help the family win the war. If she kept waiting, her time would run out. They would set her up for blind dates to strengthen the family, and she would lose the right to pursue her own happiness.

Therefore, she could not fail. Qi Han had to fall for her.
