She quietly lowered her head, her slender fingers stroking the teacup in her hand. Rubbing and rubbing the delicate ceramic, she then suddenly stopped. Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times. As Mu Yuchen lowered his head and closed in, he could see her being absent-minded and dazed.

He fell silent for a moment, then sighed helplessly. Softly nagging her entwined with some warmth, he teased, "I didn't know that you could be this emotional. This isn't a good thing. You should fix that..."

She then slowly lifted her head to look at him, a hoarse voice coming through. "Am I bothering you by feeling rueful and wanting to vent for a little? What's wrong with being emotional?"

Clearly, she was upset and approaching at him with such rage. Nevertheless, he was used to it, so he just looked down and chuckled. Without arguing with her, he poured her some tea as he said in a low voice, "How was the situation on the other side today?"

Initially, the moment she spoke, Xi Xiaye had already realized that she was wrong. She wanted to take her words back, but she could not. When she looked up at him, what greeted her sight was his calm, smiling, handsome face. Instinctively, she eased off a little.

She bowed her head and sipped her tea, then said plainly, "I checkmated Xi Xinyi, yet she still wanted to use her old tricks to get back at me. Had Vice President Liu not been around, I would've wanted to give her a few slaps like a King Kong's finger. I almost wanted to pinch her bones to pieces."

When she thought about this, Xi Xiaye could not help but frown. There were still faint twinges of pain from her arm. Meanwhile, the moment she said this, Mu Yuchen's eyes instantly hardened across her.

"Where did she hurt you now?"

Xi Xiaye reflexively pulled up the sleeves on her left arm, a clawed bruise on her fair arm greeting his sight with a shock. If it were not for the two layers of clothes in between, there would probably have been bloodshed.

"Don't you know how to resist?" He frowned and held her by the wrist to take a better look. "Put some medicine on that when we get back. Next time, be smarter. When you see her with that Han Yifeng, maintain a 10-meter distance."

When he said this, loathing flashed through his eyes. He had a very bad impression of Han Yifeng and Xi Xinyi.

"It's fine. She didn't get to scratch me. In a few more days, the bruise will go away on its own."

She pulled down her sleeve and drank more tea before she stuffed a piece of dessert into her mouth. "Have you eaten? Looking at the time, there seems to be another hour before it's time for work..."

"I don't have too much of an appetite. I'll make some good food when we get home tonight. Let's not work in the afternoon. Let me bring you somewhere." As he said this, without even waiting for her answer, he already pulled her to get up.

"Where are we going?" Xi Xiaye quickly emptied her cup to wash the dessert down. She set aside the cup in a hurry. "It's not good to just skip work for no reason."

She did not want to leave a bad record at work.

"You are now accompanying the Chairman to do an on-site inspection. Obviously, it doesn't count as skipping work," he answered matter-of-factly.

Xi Xiaye could not help but shoot him a sidelong look. In the end, she could only follow his lead and walk ahead.
