Chapter 335 Approaching Xie Xiu Anew

Mu Zhi was completely shocked by what the driver had said. She did not know how to answer him. Although she was touched by Xie Xiu’s patience for her, she did all those activities to rediscover their love.

Mu Zhi stared at the driver and did not know what to reply. At that moment, Xie Xiu came out of his room. He looked at Mu Zhi with a smile and said, “What’s wrong?”

Mu Zhi turned to him. Meanwhile, the driver had left. “Nothing. You have spent time with me these few days. Are you tired, or have I disrupted your work?”

Mu Zhi went to him slowly and asked. She observed his reaction carefully.

He hugged her gently and said, “Of course not. I am willing to spend time with you to create memories.”

He was telling the truth.

Meanwhile Mu Zhi having been reprimanded by the driver, did not know what to say.

She looked at him and sighed before saying, “I think you should go to work today as I have prepared to go shopping. I feel that we have created enough memories together. I am out of ideas on what we should do.”

Xie Xiu looked at Mu Zhi.

He seemed doubtful about what she said, but he replied her, “Alright, you can go shopping. I will be going to the company.”

He did not press Mu Zhi about what happened. After that, Mu Zhi headed to her room. As Mu Zhi was near her room, Xie Xiu said, “I will leave the driver with you. I leave it to you to plan the rest.”

With that, Xie Xiu rushed out of the house as if he had something urgent.

Although Mu Zhi pretended that she had something to do and had let Xie Xiu go to his work, in truth, she did not know what to do.

After Xie Xiu had left, she thought about what she should be doing?

She still had no idea.

So she decided to search the web.

She keyed in, ‘How to cultivate a relationship with a man?’

Instantly the search engine gave a lot of results.

Number one, watch a movie. In the evening, ask the man if he was free and then watch a film with him.

Mu Zhi frowned at this first answer.

Did watching plays and musicals count? Those did not seem to help cultivate their relationship.

So she looked at the second answer.

Number two was to go shopping. Number three was to have a meal together. Number four was to go on a holiday together.

As she read these suggestions, she was disappointed with the online relationship experts.

If that was all, how would she ever be able to cultivate any love for Xie Xiu!

Mu Zhi thought for a while and decided, hmm… It is time for a change of tactic.

As such, Mu Zhi decided to attend a job interview at Xie Xiu’s company. Once accepted, she planned to approach Xie Xiu gradually. She believed that this would provide some excitement to their relationship.

So she quickly prepared a resume and sent it to Xie Xiu’s company. She had even changed her name so as not to be recognized.

She had rarely been to Xie Xiu’s company, so she thought that no one would be able to recognize her there. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Soon after, Mu Zhi received a reply to attend an interview at his company.

She was elated. She put on a light make-up and rushed out.

Shortly after leaving, the driver who had reprimanded her came forward and asked where she was going.

Mu Zhi immediately replied, “I would like to go for a walk by myself.”

The driver still wanted to go with her and followed behind her.

This angered her so she turned to look at the driver and said, “Didn’t you tell me to stop bothering Xie Xiu? I am not bothering him anymore. Now, I just want to go out and have fun by myself. So, can you stop following me?!”

Coincidentally, there was a taxi coming her way. Mu Zhi quickly hailed it and got in. She said to the taxi driver, “Take me to Xie Xiu’s company.”

Her smile grew wider as she spoke.

She was happy.

She looked at her resume again carefully and checked her make-up.

…

Xie Xiu’s office was located in a prime area of the city center. It was just across the road from Lu Jinye’s company.

Even though the two companies were near, there were no dealings between them.

They were stiff competitors.

However, something was different that day.

Even the employees working in Xie Group could only see Xie Xiu occasionally. When they do, they would immediately be attracted by his authority and good looks.

As for Lu Jinye, they had only seen him on TV. It was not possible to see him in person.

However,, soon after coming to work, the Xie Group employees saw a handsome man at the entrance. The man was Lu Jinye.

All eyes were on him the moment he had walked in.

Lu Jinye’s gaze was cold. He did not take notice of the people around him and headed straight into the lift to Xie Xiu’s office.

The lift stopped at the 36th Floor. Seeing Lu Jinye, Xie Xiu’s secretary said to him politely, “I have informed Mr. Xie. He will be here right after his meeting.”

She then led Lu Jinye to a waiting room to wait for Xie Xiu.

He tapped his fingertips lightly against the table. Their movements were like the music notes on a score.

However, only Lu Jinye knew the rhythm. What was his purpose for coming here this time?

He needed to approach Xie Xiu to gather information from him.

As such, he needed a joint venture with him.

Lu Jinye kept his eyes guarded and stood up slowly. He glanced at his watch and saw that there was still half an hour before Xie Xiu’s meeting would end. So, he decided to walk around on other floors.

Simultaneously, at the lobby of the ground floor, Mu Zhi got down from the taxi. After paying the fare, she quickly entered Xie Xiu’s building and handed her resume to the receptionist. Then she followed the receptionist to the interview location.

However, when she had entered the lift, she saw Lu Jinye’s profile.

When the receptionist saw Lu Jinye, she immediately said, “Good morning, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Jinye gave a slight nod but as he was about to exit the lift, he caught sight of Mu Zhi.
