As the assistant left, Mu Lianchen picked up her phone and called Du Yujie. Remembering that the little girl from before had blacklisted her, she felt infuriated.
"Wait for me at nine o'clock tomorrow. Wait for me at home. Don't go anywhere. Also, arrange your work so that you can spare the last week." Mu Lianchen's heart was filled with tenderness, but her words deserved a beating.
"Hey hey hey, why should I listen to you!" Du Yujie was baffled and protested against the phone. This Mu Lianchen was way too arrogant.
"Be good, don't cause trouble, I will bring you to a good place!" Mu Lianchen's tone was doting, causing Du Yujie to be stunned for a moment before she asked, "Where are you going?"
Mu Lianchen smiled, her heart already softening. "I'll bring you to see a doctor. I want to see what kind of brain you have." With that, he hung up the phone. He could imagine that the little girl was in a rage.
Sure enough, her phone rang and a message came in: Mu Lianchen, you tyrannical pig!
Three exclamation marks had indeed angered her.
Even though she was angry and confused, Du Yujie still did as she was told and emptied her week of time. Her heart seemed to be filled with anticipation for tomorrow.
The next day, Mu Lianchen went downstairs to wait for her early. Du Yujie was still sleeping, and her eyes were still drowsy when she was woken up by the phone call. When Mu Lianchen heard her voice, she knew that she was asleep.
"Why aren't you coming down yet? I'm going up to capture him." Mu Lianchen threatened.
Du Yujie, who was on the other end of the phone, was shocked. If he was asked to go upstairs and ring the doorbell and cause a ruckus, she couldn't afford to be embarrassed to death.
Furthermore, the house was not ready yet, so he could not meet anyone!
"Pack some clothes and go downstairs. Hurry up, or we won't make it in time." Mu Lianchen was only bluffing. She didn't really intend to go upstairs to capture him.
Du Yujie slept very late last night, and was woken up early by this guy again. She could not help but feel angry, "What are you doing so early in the morning?!" However, he did not delay any further. After washing up, he took two sets of clothes, stuffed them into his bag, and ran downstairs.
Mu Lianchen had been waiting impatiently since the start, and was still gasping for breath when she saw Mu Ru Yue scurry over. She took out a paper bag and tossed it to Du Yujie. "Here, breakfast!" Du Yujie saw it and shouted excitedly, "Ah! It was the soy milk youtiao at the end of the well! How did you buy it? " She had wanted to eat for a long time, but she hadn't been able to do so.
At the top of the well was a decades-old breakfast shop, named because it was located next to a large circular well. The owner, who was already over a hundred years old, took over the breakfast shop from his father. The most famous dish in this restaurant was the youtiao, fresh and tender. It had just been scooped up from the wok and left for two to three minutes before being eaten. It was the most delicious. The fried dough sticks were slightly smaller than those on the market. They were fried until they were golden yellow in color. They were soft on the outside and matched with delicious soy milk. All the happiness of the morning had been contracted.
However, this restaurant was famous outside. There was a long queue every morning. Every time Du Yujie went to work, she would feel a little scared whenever she saw this long line.
Du Yujie grabbed the youtiao and took a big bite. She was so happy that she let out a sigh of satisfaction!
A trace of doubt flashed through his heart as he asked with wide eyes, "Mu Lianchen, CEO Mu, you didn't queue up early to buy this, did you?" Du Yujie was shocked by this thought. Mu Lianchen's time was just money, and there was a limit to the number of youtiao that came out and the queue was long. Someone would buy several sticks, and it was normal that demand would outstrip supply. How could he waste his time on such a trivial matter?
Mu Lianchen's face turned red as she grunted in embarrassment. Her expression was unnatural as she pretended not to care as she said, "You're overthinking it. I bought it from someone else for a high price. Hurry up and eat it while it's hot." He would never admit the fact that he had queued up early to buy breakfast. After all, he was a dignified CEO, how could he let others know that he had only smiled at a beauty when he had queued up to buy breakfast?
When Du Yujie heard this, she felt that this explanation was very reasonable. It was obviously the way of the Mu family. She didn't suspect it and just happily ate her fried dough sticks and drank her soy milk.
Looking at the satisfied expression of the little girl beside him, he suddenly felt that it was worth it.
"You are a good person to feed, and soy milk and youtiao can make you so happy." Mu Lianchen teased.
Du Yujie took a sip of soy milk. Before she could swallow her soy milk, she mouthed, "Wuwuwu, wuwuwu." She translated into human language: "You really don't understand what I'm saying!
After Du Yujie finished her breakfast, she started feeling sleepy and fell asleep on the car. Leaning her head on Mu Lianchen's shoulder, Mu Lianchen's shoulder was very generous, causing her to feel very at ease.
The airport was not too far away, and it was not long before they arrived. Du Yujie was still sleeping.
"Director Mu, we're at the airport." As the driver reminded her, Mu Lianchen looked at her watch. There was still some time before she boarded the plane. Seeing this little girl sleeping after eating her fill, Mu Lianchen thought to herself that it would be better if she slept for a while longer. She looked exhausted.
When Du Yujie woke up, she was in a daze. Mu Lianchen was holding onto her as they checked in, but she was still muddle-headed and did not know what she was doing. Once on the plane, she fell asleep again.
Damn, just how good was this woman at sleeping? Mu Lianchen thought angrily as she gently placed her coat over her. She brushed away the hair that had fallen on her forehead and gently kissed her on the cheek.
This feeling of leaving work behind was really good. He didn't need to think about anything else. At this moment, any sort of cooperation had nothing to do with him. The only thing he wanted to protect was this little girl beside him.
The air stewardess pushed the dining car forward. When she saw Mu Lianchen, her eyes lit up! It was actually Mu Lianchen. The flight attendant recognized him and quickly tidied up her appearance. She used her sweetest smile and asked, "Hello, Mister Mu. Would you like something to drink? " Mu Lianchen waved his hand to indicate that there was no need.
The flight attendant was unwilling to give up. How long would it take for her to meet such a handsome, rich and amorous man? Wasn't she a fool if she didn't seize this opportunity to get to know him?
"Boss Mu, why not have a cup of red wine to relax your body and give you some energy!" As he spoke, he prepared to pour the red wine.
The air stewardess' voice alarmed Du Yujie as she muttered, "So noisy!"
Mu Lianchen glared at the air stewardess and spat out the word, "Scram!"
The flight attendant's smile turned extremely awkward. Only now did she notice that the woman sleeping close to Mu Lianchen was not her fiancée, Han Ya'er. A trace of doubt flashed across the flight attendant's mind.
Du Yujie woke up and looked around in confusion. She then looked out of the window, was she in the sky?
"You're not going to sell me out, are you?" Du Yujie's eyes were wide open in shock as she asked Mu Lianchen with an exaggerated expression.
Mu Lianchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She pinched her cheek and said, "That's right. I wonder how much Miss Du can sell for?"
Du Yujie was fuming, "You haven't told me where you want to take me to, and you've already taken me on a plane?"
Mu Lianchen couldn't help but laugh. It was unknown who was sleeping like a little pig.
"Didn't they say that they want to dive into the sea?" There was an almost imperceptible gentleness in Mu Lianchen's tone.
Du Yujie abruptly raised her head: "You … You... "You …" He didn't know what to say at the moment.
Mu Lianchen remained calm and collected, looking at her without a word.
"We... We... To Malaysia? " Her heart was moved and excited at the same time. She excitedly held onto Mu Lianchen's hand to seek confirmation.
Seeing her happy smile, Mu Lianchen felt an inconceivable warmth in her heart. She tenderly scratched her nose and asked, "Are you moved?"
Du Yujie blinked her large eyes and nodded her head excitedly.
Mu Lianchen whispered into her ear, using a voice that only the two of them could hear, "If you are touched, then repay me tonight properly. Don't keep calling me tired."
Du Yujie's face instantly turned red. It seemed that she was moved too early. Mu Lianchen was a merchant, how could she make a loss in business?
The tropical zone was different from the northern region. The sky here seemed to be very low, especially on the seashore, where the sea and sky met, and where the blue sky and white clouds seemed to be within reach. Usually, when Mourinho was in charge of the entire group, he would often travel around the world, both at home and abroad, but he would never have the heart to do anything but work.
Today, looking at the blue sky over the blue sea, her heart was not only filled with emotions. Originally, she was just a simple and happy girl, fate was not fair to her, and only by avenging her parents, would her world become a beautiful place.
Du Yujie ran to the seaside excitedly, dragged her shoes, lifted her skirt and stepped into the water. The ocean water was vast and endless, looking like a giant crystal from afar.
The sand on the beach was soft and delicate, with scattered shells mixed in. It was 10: 00 in the afternoon, the scorching sun had already passed, many parents had brought their children to the beach to play, and many were swimming by the beach. The beach had become a natural bathing place.
Du Yujie saw two little kids squatting on the beach, concentrating on piling up the sand castle. The two children were also Chinese, so she started discussing, "We want to build a wall here to prevent bad guys from coming in!"
"We need two layers here!"
Du Yujie listened to their funny conversation and felt her heart soften. She squatted down and said, "Can I stack it with you guys? We will build a big castle! " The two children raised their heads, their eyes bright and pure, looking at the beautiful big sister in front of them.
Mu Lianchen was lying on a beach chair, dozing off. When she opened her eyes, the little woman who had been playing in the water was nowhere to be seen. After searching for a while, she found a pile of sandbags lying on the ground.
The sunlight fell on her face, making her fair skin seem even more transparent. She was like an ice sculpture of a doll, simply tied with a ball of hair and a few naughty strands scattered on her forehead. From time to time, she would chat and laugh with her two little friends.
