C28

In the early morning, Murong Shaoyang walked to the front of a room with a dark expression. He raised his hand to check his watch. It was already 9: 30, and it was already past work time. However, he heard the servant say that she refused to go to work again, and locked herself in the room while making some noises and refusing to respond to other people's shouts.

The servant had no choice but to call him over.

He knocked on the door but there was no response. She was about to kick the door open when she lifted her foot. It should have been during work time, yet Mu Jinxi did not wear her school uniform but instead a set of professional uniform.

With a very experienced look on her face, Murong Shaoyang lifted his hand and touched her face. Gazing into her face, his long, narrow eyes narrowed slightly in the manner of a falcon eyeing its prey.

"Ah!" The prey looked up at him, not knowing that danger was approaching.

"You know, I won't repeat what I usually say a second time …" He took her chin in his cold hand and forced her to meet his gaze.

It was an unfamiliar tone, but it woke the dazed man up.

She kept bowing and apologizing to him like a frightened child, "I'm sorry … I... "I forgot..."

The apologizing did not last for more than ten minutes, the man who was casually leaning on the door waiting for them saw Mu Jinxi with a face full of makeup walk out from the room. Mu Jinxi had already taken off his business attire, changing it to a set of colorful long skirt that was comparable to that of a village girl.

Seeing her like this, Murong Shaoyang clearly wanted to laugh and bear with it, but he only frowned, suspecting this woman's ability to understand. He really wanted to retort about her makeup, but his lips opened only said one sentence.

"Allow me."

Inside the car, Mu Jinxi looked at her own reflection in the mirror, his face still full of pimples, still wearing the same extremely disfiguring makeup, but it was clearly much better than that day. "I didn't ruin my face today …" She muttered to herself in this manner as she felt that she had to thank Murong Shaoyang for being lenient.

"What are you mumbling about?" The man next to her turned to look at her, his expression unpleasant.

"Nothing …" Murong Shaoyang moved closer, his dangerous look close to her face, his eyes staring at the woman who was stammering and pretending to be indifferent, "It's really nothing?"

She shifted her butt to the side, lowering her head, not daring to look at him anymore. "Really …" "I really didn't."

Murong Shaoyang no longer wanted to continue asking, so he leaned back in his seat and looked at the window on the carriage. He stared blankly for a long time before slowly saying, "Today, we will directly attend a banquet."

"What banquet?" He squinted at her. "A meeting of co-op executives."

"Can I not go …?" She looked at him nervously and had never been alone with him again. The so-called meetings of senior executives were nothing more than carousing, doing things more debaucherous than bars and other places under noble and elegant food and pretense. There were all sorts of beautiful women walking around in exposed clothes at parties, and even striptease girls who were barely wearing anything wriggling between the legs of the men.

After all, if she wanted to be with Murong Shaoyang in the future, she would need to have the courage to face all of these things. However, every time she was here, she would feel as if she had lost all of her strength.

She did not expect that their relationship had become so complicated. She did not know if Murong Shaoyang truly loved her, and even after Ouyang Che had left, she still had nothing to rely on, but she was asked to accompany this falcon to the carnivorous gathering.

Standing at the bottom of the food chain, she could only provide food if she went there.

"No." After a long time, he finally replied. Then, ignoring the pleading gaze of the woman beside him, he slowly closed his eyes and closed them, not giving her the chance to refuse.

The car drove steadily to the hotel where the party was taking place. The uniformed handsome man at the entrance saw the car approaching and strode over to open the door.

The man who had fallen asleep did not move.

"Murong Shaoyang..." She blinked and reached out to tug at the hem of his shirt.

He frowned disapprovingly, then opened his eyes and looked at her.

"Sir, we have reached the hotel." This time, it was the driver who replied first. Murong Shaoyang turned his head and looked at the signboard outside.

"Get out." He turned his head to look at the woman beside him, ordering with a firm and cold tone that didn't give the others a chance to reject him.

"…" Mu Jinxi shook her head, and looked at him in fear. "I won't go."

Murong Shaoyang no longer spoke, he directly went down and opened the door here, and then pulled her down. With a forceful tug, she fell to the ground.

Murong Shaoyang looked at her but did not extend his hand to help her. She rubbed her aching ankle and struggled for a long time, but was still unable to stand up. He had never thought of letting someone like her help him. He had only known that it would be destroyed.

"Are you okay?" A hand shot out as she tried to think what to do. She raised her head and looked at Liu Yanyan who had walked over at an unknown time.

He was full of smiles, and beside him was a beautiful girl holding his arm intimately. Her expression froze. "Are you alright?" Seeing that she was in a daze, Liu Yanyan asked again.

She shook her head, and with his help, she stood up. Murong Shaoyang who had been watching silently all this while hugged her waist, and said, "Don't move." "He threatened in her ear before she could even react." So you're also here, Shaoyang? " Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Liu Yanyan wanted to break the awkward silence. Who allowed you to call me Shaoyang? " Murong Shaoyang narrowed her eyes as she looked at him, her tone cold and frivolous.

"…" Liu Yanyan looked at him, he did not know what to say, so he could only smile, and followed the direction of his hand. The secretary he hired the day before, was leaning on him today, and although he did not know where he had gotten angry, he also hugged the woman beside him. After loosening his grip on the girl's waist, he focused almost all of his attention on the new secretary.

She avoided his piercing gaze, unable to escape from it. Thus, she lowered her head and placed her head on Murong Shaoyang's shoulder.

Suddenly, he felt that she was much prettier than yesterday. Moreover, the white dress made her look like a person.

"Then …" Liu Yanyan lowered her head and thought for a moment, "CEO, I will be going in first." Suppressing the thought in his heart, he hugged the person in her embrace and fled.

When Liu Yanyan walked past Mu Jinxi with the girl in her arms, Murong Shaoyang felt that her body had started to become restless. When he looked down at her, she had already turned her face away from him in a hurry.

Murong Shaoyang asked her in an extremely cold voice, "What? Reluctance? " She shook his head without hesitation.

"You think I would believe it?" Murong Shaoyang pinched her face and looked at her slightly red eyes. Then there was the sad look on his face as if he was about to cry, "Is it that sad? "Hmm?" He pressed her face back against his, and every word was without emotion.

"Don't be shameful, don't forget about our agreement. You know that I'm not a kind-hearted 'relative', but I've signed a contract with you, so you belong to me." He spoke coldly, as if it were nothing more than a play to him.

Mu Jinxi bit her lips and looked at him hatefully, "If you want to break the contract, then you have to fight for the qualifications." Although he sounded very unhappy, but he was right, even if he admitted verbally that she set her up, just based on hearing him admit it wasn't really any evidence, as long as he refused to admit it at the crucial moment and took the opportunity to say that she was suspected of slander, then no one would be able to help her find justice if she went there.

Unless you have enough money to buy the trust of others, you can only hold on to the truth and fall into hell one step at a time.

So now everything was wrong except for tolerating her actions.

Seeing that Mu Jinxi was silent, Murong Shaoyang held her tightly and dragged her into the banquet.

It had already been half a day.

Mu Jinxi had just recovered her consciousness and opened her eyes, only to see Lin Da looking at him anxiously.

"Are you okay?" "Linda saw that she was feeling better, so she quickly asked." "I'm fine …" Mu Jinxi shook her head, with Lin Da's help, she sat up and looked around. This place was probably a hospital, but it was so luxurious that it did not look like a hospital.

she asked, turning to Linda. " What kind of hospital is this? " Linda's face lit up when she saw her wake up. "What do you think, Sumire?" Mu Jinxi nodded his head "It's alright." Then, he shook his head, "Why am I here?" She remembered that it was just an act, how could she really live in the hospital without knowing the reason? Who sent her to such a hospital... "Looking at the cost, it makes one's heart ache." Have you forgotten? " Lin Da looked at her nervously. She raised her hand to stroke her forehead and asked, "Did you fall stupid?"

Mu Jinxi kept quiet and looked at her helplessly.

"You seemed to have hit pretty hard just now. Are you sure you're all right? For example, did his neck hurt? "What about the head?" Mu Jinxi, on the other hand, did not seem to care much. After all, she knew his own body very well. If she were to throw his body lightly like that, it would be enough to take her life.

"Afraid that Linda would start making a fuss again, she quickly comforted her." I'm really fine. My whole body is fine. " After saying that, she shook her head and looked at Linda soberly.

"Alright then … If anything goes wrong, you have to tell me right away. " "I'm still worried, but since she said so, Linda felt that it would be inappropriate to press her." Would you like some water? " Linda asked, looking back at the boiling water.

Mu Jinxi nodded, Lin Da hurried over and poured water for her and placed it on the table by the bed to cool it, Mu Jinxi sat on the bed and watched Lin Da's body heat up, gulping down his saliva, he was really thirsty.

She wanted to rest and lie back down on the bed and close her eyes. Linda lifted her hand and touched her head.

"Are you really all right? "Qiangxi." Mu Jinxi opened her eyes and looked at her, "Mhm."

Even though he said so, how could he possibly be okay?

When she pretended to fall, Murong Shaoyang was clearly by her side, but he did not make a single move as he watched her.

Why was he so cold?

Mu Jinxi knew that her body wouldn't hurt anymore, but in an instant, she felt her heart become as cold as ice.

Were the two of them really not meant to be together? And that was something that Murong Shaoyang himself had decided to do.

"Sumire." The door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and Lin Da turned to see that it was the famous Murong Shaoyang.

He was dressed casually and looked like he was in a hurry when he arrived. Sweat was dripping down his handsome face and his shirt was already soaked through.

This was not like the perfect him in the news at all. Murong Shaoyang looked at the girl with a gaze that told him how embarrassed he looked right now, but it was obvious that the woman on the bed was more important.

"He walked over to the woman on the bed and stretched out his hand to touch her face, but he pulled it back midway." How is she? " He turned around and looked at the girl, stunned by his sudden appearance.

His tone was filled with concern.

His expression was also very doting.
