Because she had to take care of her child and the Mu Group was in a crisis at the time, Mu Yanchen could hardly spare the time to take her out. He was also worried about her going out on her own.
Chu He was a little surprised to note that Meng Qingxue had driven here by herself. “You took the driving test?”
“Of course!” Meng Qingxue said, “We haven’t met in a long time. I’ve been thinking about you. It’s rare that I have the time today. Let me treat you to Western food!”
“Doesn’t matter what we choose to eat. I’m not picky.”
The two of them arrived at the western restaurant. Meng Qingxue had booked a private room early in the morning. They sat down at the table. Meng Qingxue suddenly took out a thick envelope from her bag and handed it to Chu He.
“This is…”
“You’ve forgotten?” Meng Qingxue couldn’t help chuckling. “During the time I was in Yancheng, you had provided me with accommodation and meals. I kept account of it and owe you over 20,000 yuan.”
Chu He was touched that she remembered this. She opened the envelope, noted that there was a total of 25,000 yuan, and accepted it gracefully.
Meng Qingxue started to talk about things that had happened lately. Ever since the incident with Song Enya, the Mu and Song families had severed ties.
Subsequently, Mu Linfeng fell gravely ill stressing over company matters and was bedridden. From then on, Mu Yanchen officially took over the Mu Group.
Mu Yanchen might not have been as good as Mu Yazhe in this aspect, he was a member of the Mu family nevertheless. Although he was not as outstanding as Mu Yazhe, he managed the company considerably well.
Mu Yanchen did not have self-confidence, but Meng Qingxue stood by him silently and encouraged him. For his own pride, the man was determined to make a name for himself. Even though the Mu Group was no longer like before and for a period of time going through many crises such as interrupted cash flow and withdrawal of shares by shareholders. At one time, it was in imminent danger.
Today, Mu Group had a firm foothold. Although it was not like before, there were, nevertheless, many people who sang their praises. However, given that Mu Yanchen’s whole heart and soul were focused on his career, Mu Group’s position was maintained. This was already quite a feat.
After ten months of pregnancy, Meng Qingxue gave Mu Yancheng a cute son. Her son was more like her. He had delicate features and fair skin, very adorable.
Mu Yanchen named him Mu Wenqi.
Meng Qingxue showed Chu He a photograph of the boy at one month. After becoming a mother, Meng Qingxue’s greatest joy was to fuss over the baby every day. She was not the type who especially liked to show off her baby in her WeChat Moments. She simply found her son cute and kept the pictures in her phone so that she could look at them.
The child was still young, but he had already learned to walk. Who would have thought that, in the blink of an eye, in the time that they had not met up, she had gotten pregnant and now the child was walking!
Chu He couldn’t help feeling emotional!
Meng Qingxue said, “I’ve been missing Baby Chu! However, right after I had given birth, my health was quite frail. Although I’ve recovered a little now, my child wants me around all the time. Otherwise…”
“There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” Chu He paused for a moment and asked with concern, “How are things now though? Are you doing okay?”
“Huh?”
“How is Mu Yanchen treating you?” Chu He’s expression darkened. “Are things still like before?”
“This guy…” Meng Qingxue turned red at the mention of Mu Yanchen.. She was a little touched as she said, “He has changed a lot! He has become… more responsible! I don’t know why, but perhaps after becoming a father, he’s acquired a sense of responsibility! He’s very busy with work every day, but makes it a point to take some time out to accompany me and our child!”
