After a stifling silence, some people were laughing at Gu Lingsha. After that, Qi Qiming shot Wang Qin an irritated glance and said coldly, “Shasha’s just joined the company quite recently. She hasn’t gotten used to things yet. As her superiors, you should all watch out for her. Okay, have a seat. Let’s start the meeting now!”
When Qi Qiming said that, Wang Qin kept quiet and gave Gu Lingsha a look of disdain. Her gaze turned to the side and fell on Qi Lei. When she saw him nonchalantly flipping through the document with a calm expression and ignoring the little episode, she smiled gladly before shooting Gu Lingsha a delighted glance. In turn, Gu Lingsha looked extremely upset.
“My apologies, I’ll be more careful next time.”
After a while, Gu Lingsha bit her lip and said that before sitting down, feeling a little bleak.
The meeting was about the first half of the year’s work plan and general direction as well as some transfer of upper management. Throughout it all, Qi Lei listened half-heartedly with one hand propping up his head and staring down at the table. If you looked closely, you could tell that he was probably sleeping.
Meanwhile, Gu Lingsha was tensed. She kept shooting glances at Qi Lei, her eyes holding a mix of emotions.
When the car drove into Glory World Corporation, the sun was high up in the sky. The mist that filled the air had gradually dissipated. However, there was still a faint, bleak coldness in the air.
“Missus, we’re here,” said the chauffeur ahead.
Xi Xiaye nodded. With one hand carrying her son, she handed her bag to Mu Zirui. “Xiao Rui, help me hold my bag.”
“Yes, Mother!”
Mu Zirui quickly took it over while the door on Xi Xiaye’s side was opened. Sis Wang stood outside respectfully. “Missus, let’s get down from the car.”
“Okay, you all just wait for me downstairs. Xiao Rui, go and bring Father’s folder up.”
Then, she walked into the building. Mu Zirui responded and quickly followed her with the items.
The moment Xi Xiaye appeared in the building, she attracted a lot of attention, especially the cute little boy following by her side and calling her ‘Mother’. Of course, there was also the little bun that she carried in her arms.
“Hello, Director Xi!”
Along the way, many people greeted Xi Xiaye who had no doubt become the center of attention in the company. In just a few short minutes, all the departments knew that their Chairman’s Missus had brought along a little master to the company. Even Mu Yuchen, who was on the top floor, had immediately received the news, so he came down to get them personally.
Xi Xiaye and Mu Zirui took the special elevator and reached the top floor. They had just walked out when they met with Mu Yuchen who was about to go down and meet them.
“Why are you here?” Mu Yuchen frowned at her and took the little bun from her arms.
“You left some things in the study room. I’m going to go to the hospital later, so I decided to swing by and send it over.”
“Father, here...”
Mu Yuchen patted the folder in the boy’s hand.
“Mother says she could also bring me and Little Brother out to walk around,” Mu Zirui said as he tiptoed to look at the little baby in Mu Yuchen’s arms.
At this moment, Xiao Zicheng was waking up. When he saw that he was in someone else’s arms, his eyes widened and his gaze was fixated on Mu Yuchen. As he watched his father, he was spitting little bubbles, and a smile rippled across his face.
Mu Zirui’s line of sight kept falling onto Mu Zicheng. When he saw the baby’s faint smile, he could not help but cry out in wonder, “Father, does Little Brother know how to smile already?”
When Mu Zirui said that, Mu Yuchen straightened up and looked into his arms. He realized that the little bun was indeed looking joyful. As he looked indistinctly at him, Xi Xiaye smiled gladly. She could not help but reach out to gently poke the little guy’s cheeks. “He really does like you more. I carried him the whole morning, but I didn’t see him looking like this.”
“Even our son knows that his father has charisma. This is a fantastic thing. Anyway, let’s go in first.”
Mu Yuchen caressed Mu Zirui’s little head, and then carried the little guy a little clumsily into his office. Xi Xiaye held Mu Zirui’s hand and walked in too.
The secretary quickly brought some snacks over while Xiao Rui sat down very quietly.
Xi Xiaye had just taken a seat when Mu Yuchen called Hospital T’s Dr. Huang for an appointment. After he hung up, he turned to Xi Xiaye. “I’ve already made an appointment with Dr. Huang. Just go at 11 a.m. The meeting’s been pushed to the afternoon. Rest for a bit, then I’ll go over with you guys.”
“Sis Wang’s still waiting downstairs. I’ll be making a trip back to the Shen residence in the afternoon, and I’ll bring Xiao Rui back with me too. You...”
“Meeting’s at 3 p.m. in the afternoon. I have some things to discuss with Grandpa too.”
“Is it about the South River Project?” Xi Xiaye asked softly.
Mu Yuchen nodded while he handed the little boy to Xi Xiaye. He wanted to briefly explain himself to her when there was a sudden knock on the door. The husband and wife both instantly looked to the door.
Li Si walked in with a slightly solemn expression. When he saw that Xi Xiaye and Mu Zirui were around, he quickly bowed and greeted, “Master, Missus, Master Xiao Rui!”
Upon seeing Li Si, Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened a little. He roughly knew what it was about, and his whole body slowly moved towards the desk. Li Si quickly went up and stopped behind Mu Yuchen to say with a lowered voice, “Master, we found out that woman is.”
“Who was it?” Mu Yuchen turned around and looked up through narrow and profound eyes at Li Si.
“It was Gu Lingsha. The car with no number plate is one of Qi Qiming’s subordinate’s cars.” Li Si lowered his voice and subconsciously looked towards Xi Xiaye. When he saw that she was busy playing with her son and not paying attention to them, he turned to look at Mu Yuchen.
“Got it. Go down first.” Mu Yuchen’s gaze turned a little dark as his handsome face was gloomy too.
“Master, do we want to get people to stop her?” Li Si asked softly.
Mu Yuchen lifted a hand slightly and stopped him. “No need. I know what to do. Prepare the car right now.”
“But this woman was reckless. If you hadn’t rushed over in time, Missus... She’s provoking you, Master!” Li Si brows frowned into a knot as he said in an urgent voice.
Mu Yuchen did not say anything, yet Li Si felt a coldness fill the air. When he looked up to Mu Yuchen, he realized that his Master had returned to his usual calm and quiet self. Naturally, he dared not say anything more, so he bowed and quietly left.
