The treat Xi Xiaye mentioned was to take Mu Yuchen directly to a hot pot restaurant near New Century Plaza to have hot pot.
There are quite a lot of people in the hot pot restaurant, and the couple's seat is in a corner on the side. Turning your head and looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows beside you, you can see the large square under New Century Plaza.
Her appetite seemed to be pretty good today, and most of the food that was ordered went into her stomach. Mu Yuchen didn't eat much, but kept boiling the food for her.
At this moment, Miss Xia Ye was holding onto her chopsticks to pick up a piece of lotus root from the pot, and was about to put it in her own bowl, when she suddenly remembered something, she suddenly looked up at the opposite man who was drinking tea with his head down, hardly moving his chopsticks, "Don't the dishes suit your taste? Didn't you see you move your chopsticks?"
While talking, he picked up the colander and picked up a lot of vegetables and poured them into the bowl in front of him.
"Eat yours, I want to see how strong your fighting power is, madam."
Mu Yuchen reached out to stabilize her arm, and replied in a low voice, scanning the empty plate with his deep eyes.
Miss Xia Ye followed his gaze and realized that her amazing appetite seemed to surprise the man.
"It's not like I haven't seen..."
She retracted her hand in a daze, and lowered her head indifferently.
"What kind of expression do you have? I didn't say I dislike you. Being able to eat is also a blessing. You are too thin. If you are a little richer, it should reflect your outstanding charm."
Mu Yuchen looked her up and down with those meaningful gazes, and then took the lunch paper on the side and handed it to her.
"Don't you all pursue skinny beauty?" Miss Xia Ye reached out to take it, wiped the corners of her mouth, raised her wine glass, and then looked up at him, "Do you think we all did something despicable about today's matter?"
After she said this, Mu Yuchen raised his eyebrows, looked at her calmly, and didn't answer.
She lowered her eyes and frowned, took a sip of wine, took a breath, and a sneer flashed across her pretty face, "Actually, I don't mind being a little more mean..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at him, and smiled with great interest, "Mr. Mu, I thought you would be so angry that you would directly terminate her contract and kick her out of the prosperous world."
Seeing her twinkling starry eyes, Mu Yuchen suddenly smiled softly, put down the cup in his hand, and said in a low voice, "I only want good things, do you think I look like the kind of tyrant who fires people or terminates contracts at every turn?"
"You can take 20 million to throw someone's face so proudly, and you probably don't care about the more than 10 million termination fee."
Miss Xia Ye said disapprovingly.
"Okay, your IQ is simply unbearable to look at directly. You are her boss now, so it's not a matter of minutes to embarrass a subordinate?"
He said calmly, a cool stream of light slowly flowed in his deep eyes, and Xi Xiaye couldn't help trembling slightly when he saw it—
Is there such a thing as teaching
"Or... your method is more despicable..."
It took a long time for Xi Xiaye to reply. She suddenly had a premonition that people are divided into groups, and if she lives with this man for a long time, she will be spoiled by him sooner or later...
When I came out of the hot pot restaurant, it was bustling outside. Counting the time, it seemed that it was only a few days before New Year’s Eve. It seemed to be the day after tomorrow. Red lanterns had already begun to be hung on the edge of New Century Square, and there was joy everywhere.
Miss Xia Ye was a little stuffed, so Mr. Mu said to take a walk in the square. Thinking about it, the husband and wife didn't seem to have the leisure time to go out to the night market at night.
On the edge of the square, Mu Yuchen was leisurely wrapping his arms around Xi Xiaye's shoulders. The husband and wife walked past under the dim street lights. The night wind kept blowing their clothes. shoulders.
"It's the Chinese New Year soon, don't we need to prepare some New Year's gifts? The old house of the Mu family..."
After walking for a while, Xi Xiaye suddenly stopped and looked at him with some doubts. He hadn't forgotten that he had married into Mu's family, and Wang Hui called to care about her this morning.
"On New Year's Eve, we will go home for a New Year's Eve dinner, and we will return to Fengju on the second day of junior high school."
Mu Yuchen replied in a low voice, turned his face, looked down at her thoughtful face, and couldn't help laughing, "Why? Thinking about how to maintain a good image in front of grandparents and parents?"
"Isn't my image in front of them always good?"
Miss Xia Ye also raised her eyes and looked at him lightly, her starry eyes sparkled with a faint color, "Besides, I have worked so hard to harmonize the family relationship, and I haven't seen you praise me, let alone any substantive support." gone."
He is really tall. She wears high heels and has to raise her head slightly to talk to him more comfortably, so sometimes, she always feels a little oppressive.
Hearing her words, Mu Yuchen couldn't help laughing at the moment, the arms around her shoulders were slightly tightened, and his tone was very soft, "Okay, thank you for your hard work Ma'am, how do you want me to praise you so much? It's not like that. Fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls still need praise and encouragement? Don’t you claim to be a strong woman in the new era, and still worry about these trivial matters?”
Of course, Mu Yuchen didn't know that the reason why Xia Ye was like this was because she felt that everyone in Mu's old house was very kind to her, especially Wang Hui, who would call and care about her from time to time these days. It made her faintly feel some inexplicable warmth.
Such warmth made her want to keep and possess it.
"Mu Yuchen, do you seldom communicate with your family? I always feel that your relationship with your family... seems a little... weak..."
Miss Xia Ye didn't know what was going on, she couldn't help asking when she saw his indifferent eyes.
However, when Xi Xiaye's voice fell, Mu Yuchen was stunned for a moment. She kept staring at his eyes, and caught the gloomyness that flashed in his eyes. Far.
"Well, in fact, I have rarely lived at home these years."
As he spoke, his big hands around her shoulders slightly tightened, and he walked forward while hugging her, "I was sent to school when I was very young, and my parents are very busy with work, so it is rare to have time to sit down and chat all year round. The children in the family are very strict, including Ling... including Ling Shi, although we have a good family background, we don't necessarily have an easier life than ordinary people."
"Ling Shi?"
Miss Xia Ye quickly caught the key word and asked suspiciously.
"Well, Ling Shi... She won't be back until next year. She is a very nice person. You should like her very much when you see her."
Mu Yuchen replied lightly.
"Children in the family... Didn't your parents give birth to a son like you?"
Xi Xiaye asked tentatively.
