Chapter 1739: Clouds of the Past (3)
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Mu Yuchen crossed his fingers and looked at him leisurely.
“Looks like you’re still a little affected? If that’s the case, then you’d better clear out your mind and the things in your heart first.” Mu Yuchen said.
This time, Zhou Zimo took a deep breath, “It’s not that serious. In fact, I haven’t thought about her many times over the years. I haven’t been paying attention to her anymore. Even if we meet again, I don’t think I’ll react too much. How deep do you think our feelings were back then?”
“So, based on what you said, you can be as calm as still water to her now?”
Mu Yuchen squinted and looked over.
Zhou Zimo did not answer, but he looked at him rather disdainfully.
Mu Yuchen nodded in understanding. He thought about it for a moment and then said, “Then, let me tell you, she’s returning to City Z next month. She’s preparing to divorce her current husband. This time, she’s coming back as the executive manager of the branch company. You’ll see her again sooner or later. If you haven’t thought it through, then don’t provoke Qin Su. If you’ve thought it through, then bury everything in your heart.”
“Also, I forgot to tell you that Qin Su is a very good woman. Uncle Zhou has wanted her to be your wife for a very long time. He once asked me to try my best to set you two up in private. I might not be able to do this matchmaker thing. It’s up to you to decide how to handle it. Of course, if you need anything, tell Uncle Zhou, he’ll definitely be very willing to help.”
At this point, Mu Yuchen thought that it would be better to lay out everything for him.
“I’ve done some research on Qin Su. She’s always been alone. She doesn’t really believe in marriage, much less relationships. However, if you make her fall for you, she’ll definitely never leave you. Just like Xiaye and I, you wouldn’t be any less happier than us.”
Mu Yuchen’s tone contained a hint of blessing.
When Zhou Zimo heard this, he was a little absent-minded—
Qin Su?
Could he really woo Qin Su?
Such a proud woman, if she knew how he treated her, then..
When Zhou Zimo thought about this, he could not help but shudder. He seemed to be able to imagine Qin Su whipping him.
This situation naturally made Mu Yuchen look at him with disdain—
Zhou Zimo could clear his throat, as he thought about it before he said, “Everything I said today, let the secret die with you, I can’t let anyone else know about it. Otherwise, I’ll cut you!”
Mu Yuchen raised his brows disapprovingly. “Only the media would be interested in your romantic affairs. It seems like you’re the most dishonest among us brothers. You even dared to attack your comrade. Zhou Zimo, you’re really quite capable.”
“It was an extraordinary phase. She was already like that, yet there’s no way to wake her up. You might be able to tolerate it,but I couldn’t! Who would want to be a saint of love? Women don’t like their men inexperienced, don’t tell me you don’t understand this!”
Zhou Zimo gritted his teeth as he subconsciously glanced at Mu Yuchen. “If I didn’t see Mu Xiaocheng look so much like you, I really f*cking thought you couldn’t do it… Ah!”
Before Zhou Zimo could finish, Mu Yuchen had already rolled up a magazine and hit him on the head.
“You can never say anything good! My son is almost two years old, yet your woman is nowhere to be seen. If it’s anyone who can’t do it, it’d be you.”
Mu Yuchen glanced at Zhou Zimo coldly.
Zhou Zimo then coughed lightly and poured Mu Yuchen a glass of wine. “Forget it. Let’s not talk about this anymore. Come and drink!”
Mu Yuchen glanced at him and quietly raised his glass as well.
…
The two of them drank for most of the night until the bar was closed in the early morning. The two of them could not stand properly anymore, so the car naturally could not be driven. They were completely drunk and dizzy.
They could barely find the car that Mu Yuchen had driven over. The two of them fell asleep in the car for the rest of the night.
Xi Xiaye had been worrying at home the whole night too. When she did not see any calls coming back, she called over a dozen times but still did not pick up. After that, it was Xi Xiaye who called Li Si. According to the GPS in her hand, she found the two of them…
At this time, the sky was almost bright.
“Master? Master Mo?”
Just as they got closer, a strong smell of alcohol assaulted their nostrils. Li Si could not help but fan him. “Oh my God, how much did the two of them drink? The car reeks of alcohol!”
“Master, wake up! Master!”
Li Si called Mu Yuchen, but Mu Yuchen was still sleeping soundly.
Li Si had no choice but to turn to the bodyguard in black behind him and say—
“You two send Master Mo to the hotel to rest, I’ll send Master back. Call me when you’re done.”
“Yes, Assistant Li!”
…
When they returned to Maple Residence, the sky was already bright.
Xi Xiaye had been worried the entire night. She followed Li Si to help him upstairs to sleep. She simply helped him take off his clothes and washed them. Xi Xiaye was already sweating from exhaustion.
When she went downstairs, she saw that Li Si was still there.
“What happened? He’s so drunk?”
Xi Xiaye pointed at the sofa and gestured for Li Si to sit down as she asked.
“I don’t know. When we rushed over, Master and Master Mo were sleeping soundly in the car. The car reeked of alcohol, so they must have drunk too much. I asked them to arrange for Master Mo to sleep in the hotel,” Li Si replied.
Xi Xiaye nodded, but she frowned slightly. “He drank too much. This Zimo gets drunk every time he drinks. Get the kitchen to prepare some hangover soup and some light porridge for him.”
“Okay, Missus!” Li Si replied.
“If there’s nothing else, he won’t be going to work today. Let’s push this morning’s meeting to tomorrow.”
He had an early meeting this morning, but it seemed like he could not go.
“Okay, Missus. I’ll make the arrangements right away!”
“Thank you for your hard work, Assistant Li!”
“Of course!” Li Si replied before turning around to make the arrangements.
Xi Xiaye sighed softly, then she had no choice but to go upstairs.
“Daddy… Daddiy…”
‘Thud!’
She had just reached the bedroom door when she heard some movement from inside. Xi Xiaye noticed that the door was slightly ajar, so she quickly pushed the door open and walked in
Sure enough, from afar, she saw her son’s tiny body supporting himself on the bed. As he reached out to pull Mu Yuchen’s blanket, he called out ‘daddy’. He must have wanted to wake Mu Yuchen up.
“Xiaocheng!”
Xi Xiaye took a few big steps over and carried him up. She lowered her head and kissed his tender little face. “When did you wake up? Let Daddy sleep a little longer. Let’s go out. Mommy will wash you up…”
