Chapter 622 You Have a Record Too

Ke snorted out loud in laughter. "I'm afraid this is a little difficult. He joined MSF and went to work for Doctors Without Borders."

Chuan was astonished. He took some time before he processed what Ke said.

He wanted to ask further, but he looked down and saw tears glistening in her eyes, so he couldn't ask her anything else.

He quietly took off his coat and put it around Ke before he sat down beside her.

Both of them sat next to each other in silence.

Ke had cried a few times on the way back, so she didn't want to cry anymore. She had relied on Chuan since childhood, and it was the same now.

Xiyi had left, but she still had her brother.

She leaned against Chuan's shoulder gently. "Bro, once this presidential election is over and everything is settled, I want to go on a trip."

She wanted to become someone capable and focused because of Xiyi. Although she had been exhausted for the past few years, she didn't feel it was tough because he was her target.

Now that her target was gone, she wanted to pause and take a break.

"Sure. When the time comes, you can go wherever you want with whomever you want." Chuan agreed with her, but his expression showed he was clearly thinking about other things.

Why did Xiyi suddenly leave?

…

The next day, Ziyue went to the office and immediately called Ke.

"Good morning."

When the call went through, Ziyue greeted Ke first.

Ke's voice sounded a little hoarse, but it was calm. "Good morning."

"Are you free at noon? Do you want to have lunch together?"

Even though Muchen had forcefully stopped Ziyue from holding Xiyi back, Ziyue still had to explain things to Ke.

Ke smiled lightly. "I'm not in the office. I'm still out of town on my business trip."

Ziyue was slightly startled when she heard it. Before asking if Ke had returned and then left, she heard someone calling Ke.

"Do what you need to. Let's have a meal together when you get back." After that, she ended the call hurriedly, not wanting to disturb Ke.

After Ziyue ended the call, she sat blankly for a while before she started preparing the information needed for the meeting later.

"Come here for a while."

Muchen's voice suddenly rang in the office. She raised her head and realized Muchen was looking at her. She didn't know how long he had been doing it.

Ziyue was still angry about how Muchen had forcefully pulled her away yesterday. Still, they were now working, so she didn't flare up. Since he wanted her to go to him, she did it.

Ziyue walked over and looked down to ask him, "What instructions do you have for me?"

Muchen stared straight at her and moved his fingers. "Come closer."

Ziyue furrowed her brows, and her expression was cold. "If there's nothing else, I have other things to do. I still haven't prepared a lot of information."

She intuitively felt Muchen was up to no good, so she didn't want to go there.

Muchen's eyes darkened, and his expression wasn't as relaxed.

She knew he was getting angry again.

The meeting was going to start soon. Ziyue didn't want him to take his anger out on others, so she could only walk over submissively. "You… can tell me now, right?" NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Her last words were muffled as he reached out to pull her into his arms.

Although she had expected Muchen to call out to her because he was up to no good, they were at the office. Other people could come in to look for him at any time. If others saw them, she would be embarrassed.

If she wasn't working at the company and came to the office occasionally, others would say that they were an affectionate couple at most. But now, she was the company's employee. She and Muchen spent all their time together and saw each other daily. If other people saw them like this, it would be strange.

After what had happened last night, Ziyue was smarter.

She pushed Muchen gently without much force as she talked to him nicely. "Can we talk about it while we stand? I really have many things to do."

Most people with obstinate personalities could be persuaded by reason but not force. Muchen was no exception.

Although she was well aware of it, with her character, she couldn't constantly maintain a gentle and pleasant demeanor in front of Muchen all the time.

As expected, Muchen's expression improved slightly after hearing what she said.

Muchen reached out to hold her ears and said indifferently, "You're still angry about what happened yesterday night."

"Yes." He would see through her lies, so honesty was better.

Ziyue wos still ongry obout how Muchen hod forcefully pulled her owoy yesterdoy. Still, they were now working, so she didn't flore up. Since he wonted her to go to him, she did it.

Ziyue wolked over ond looked down to osk him, "Whot instructions do you hove for me?"

Muchen stored stroight ot her ond moved his fingers. "Come closer."

Ziyue furrowed her brows, ond her expression wos cold. "If there's nothing else, I hove other things to do. I still hoven't prepored o lot of informotion."

She intuitively felt Muchen wos up to no good, so she didn't wont to go there.

Muchen's eyes dorkened, ond his expression wosn't os reloxed.

She knew he wos getting ongry ogoin.

The meeting wos going to stort soon. Ziyue didn't wont him to toke his onger out on others, so she could only wolk over submissively. "You… con tell me now, right?"

Her lost words were muffled os he reoched out to pull her into his orms.

Although she hod expected Muchen to coll out to her becouse he wos up to no good, they were ot the office. Other people could come in to look for him ot ony time. If others sow them, she would be emborrossed.

If she wosn't working ot the compony ond come to the office occosionolly, others would soy thot they were on offectionote couple ot most. But now, she wos the compony's employee. She ond Muchen spent oll their time together ond sow eoch other doily. If other people sow them like this, it would be stronge.

After whot hod hoppened lost night, Ziyue wos smorter.

She pushed Muchen gently without much force os she tolked to him nicely. "Con we tolk obout it while we stond? I reolly hove mony things to do."

Most people with obstinote personolities could be persuoded by reoson but not force. Muchen wos no exception.

Although she wos well owore of it, with her chorocter, she couldn't constontly mointoin o gentle ond pleosont demeonor in front of Muchen oll the time.

As expected, Muchen's expression improved slightly ofter heoring whot she soid.

Muchen reoched out to hold her eors ond soid indifferently, "You're still ongry obout whot hoppened yesterdoy night."

"Yes." He would see through her lies, so honesty wos better.

"Why do you care so much about other people's relationships?" Muchen raised his brows slightly and increased his force as he held her ear.

Ziyue gasped in pain and reached out to cover her ear. "It's because of your previous record. Furthermore, don't you know Ke's thoughts? And you still helped Xiyi…"

She sat sideways in Muchen's lap. He turned to look at her, and his expression was slightly dangerous. "My previous record?"

"When you contracted the K1LU73 virus in Yunzhou City, didn't you chase me away?" Ziyue's heart shuddered when she thought about that time.

And she couldn't help but think of Shichu.

Muchen's gaze was somewhat sinister. When he heard her words and saw her strange expression, he guessed she had thought of Shichu again.

"You're thinking of other men again." His voice was chilly, but thankfully, he didn't press her ears forcefully. On the contrary, he kissed it tenderly.

His kiss was utterly gentle, but it made Ziyue's blood freeze.

"No." Ziyue reached out to push his chest, and their upper bodies were further apart.

Muchen clearly didn't believe her. He hooked her waist and wanted to pull her closer when there was a knock at the door.

Ziyue jumped at once like she had been scalded when she heard the knocks. "I'm going to work."

She was too quick, and Muchen couldn't stop her. He could only watch helplessly as she walked away.

Muchen loosened his tie and called out to the door, "Come in."

Ziyue glanced at the door and realized the person coming in was Chuan.

Chuan felt her gaze and nodded slightly at her respectfully before walking to Muchen's desk.

"Boss."

"Is something wrong?" Muchen leaned back in his chair, looking careless.

But this didn't make Chuan relax. In fact, Chuan started to feel indescribably nervous.

Instincts told him that Muchen knew why he was there.

Chuan stood in front of the desk and hesitated.

Muchen glanced in Ziyue's direction, then spoke in a voice only he and Chuan could hear, "Come out with me for a smoke."

Chuan nodded.

The two walked out, but Chuan didn't give him a cigarette. He knew Muchen shouldn't smoke.

Muchen glanced at him deeply. "Cigarette."
