"Sure! No problem! How could I refuse? Right, honey?" As he replied, Lin Fei turned his head and grinned at Mu Shanshan, their eyes meeting momentarily.
"Honey, the game is up!"
"Smart you, someone really is out to get us."
...
This exchange of glances wasn't noticed by Ma Yan'er. Lin Fei had already sensed something wrong since last night. Ma Yan'er was clearly sent by someone to ensnare them, so Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan decided to play along and see what Ma Yan'er's real intentions were.
Meanwhile, Ma Yan'er felt quite proud. Despite the difficulties, she had finally succeeded. Now she might gain her aunt's approval and even enter the He Family before her brother. The thought filled her heart with unexpressable eagerness.
"That won't be necessary."
Luo Chen felt a bit embarrassed instead.
"Hurry up, I still have to go to headquarters later."
Seeing Mu Binglan's strong stance, Luo Chen no longer refused and let her feed him.
After a sweet breakfast, Mu Binglan changed into an office outfit, ready to leave.
"I've asked someone to have your car taken for repairs; today, you'll ride with me to headquarters. Your company is not far from there anyway."
Luo Chen nodded, following behind Mu Binglan.
Mu Binglan changed into a pair of black high heels in the entryway, appearing more elegant and striking.
"Luo Chen, help me pick up my handbag."
Mu Binglan pointed to the LV bag on the sofa, and Luo Chen immediately went back to fetch it for her.
"I'll go start the car, hurry up."
With that, Mu Binglan left the house and went to the garage beside the villa.
A little later, Luo Chen also tidied up and left the house, finding Mu Binglan's car parked at the gate.
Luo Chen opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Seeing Mu Binglan full of energy and confidence, Luo Chen thought today's board meeting should go smoothly and didn't inquire further.
The journey was silent.
At eight o'clock, Mu Binglan's car stopped beneath Mu Group's building.
The Mu Group building was quite impressive, constituted by a towering main building and two towers connected by sky bridges, designed collaboratively by dozens of renowned architects worldwide, costing billions, also known as 'Jianghai Building.'
Back then, the Mu Family elder once said, to retain talent, two things are essential: enough money and a perfect environment, thus Jianghai Building was born. It's said that Jianghai Building is so grand that some floors of one tower are specially accessible for public visits.
Luo Chen and Mu Binglan stepped out of the car, and personnel took Mu Binglan's car to the underground parking.
Though accustomed to grand scenes abroad and having seen majestic buildings, seeing Jianghai Building up close for the first time was still deeply astonishing.
Who the hell dares say the motherland is lacking? This magnificent building outshines even the Fruit Company!
Luo Chen internally praised the greatness of the motherland.
A car horn sounded.
Luo Chen and Mu Binglan moved aside.
A Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped in front of them.
An escort opened the car doors, and Wu Yunzhi and Mu Shaopeng got out one after another.
Both Wu Yunzhi and her son Mu Shaopeng wore formal attire, appearing to attend the group board meeting.
"Isn't it Binglan? You came so early!"
Wu Yunzhi smiled, approached Mu Binglan, removed her sunglasses, and greeted her, while Mu Shaopeng followed, smirking maliciously.
"Afraid your trip here might be in vain, cousin."
"Shaopeng, mind your words."
Wu Yunzhi feigned to scold Mu Shaopeng, then turned her attention to Luo Chen.
"You must be Binglan's husband, Luo Chen, right? We briefly met at the hospital last time. If possible, bring Binglan to visit my home, so we can get to know each other better."
Luo Chen couldn't tolerate Wu Yunzhi's arrogance, approached her, and whispered.
"Aunt, there's a saying 'the heavens are watching,' aren't you afraid of retribution for the monstrous acts you and your son committed?"
