Qi Lei’s laughter echoed.

“You know, saying a few decent things won’t kill you. Forget it then. I shall see you next time. Take care of yourself, and don’t work yourself to death.”

“Okay, if I were to work myself to death, please submit my name for the model employee award,” Qi Lei said with a chuckle.

“Model employee award, my *ss! A’you definitely deserve it’ award sounds better. It suits you. Okay now, let’s end the party here.” He hung up after saying that.

“What has Qi Lei been up to lately? I haven’t heard about how busy he can be, working all day long. Is he just working blindly?” In the corner of the sofa, Su Chen was leisurely leaning on the side of the sofa, holding a glass of wine. Behind him was a female attendant massaging his shoulders.

Mu Yuchen, who was bowing his head and drinking silently, lifted his gaze from the glass and gave him a sideways glance. “Otherwise, do you think everyone is always at leisure just like you? The early stages of the South River Project are coming to an end, so it’s only natural that there are lots of agendas on our plates.”

“When I’m busy, aren’t you and the others taking it easy?” Su Chen disagreed and refilled Mu Yuchen’s glass again.

“I sense something wrong with you.” Mu Yuchen stared at him and said indifferently, “Did you get into another fight with Ji Zitong?”

Having heard that, Su Chen froze for a while. He inahled, took a glance at Mu Yuchen, and continued with what he was doing. There was a hint of helplessness in his deep tone as he replied, “It’s not her. She’s fine. Ah Chen, do you think that I’m getting old?”

“Old?” As soon as he heard what Su Chen had to say, Mu Yuchen squinted his eyes slightly, scrutinizing Su Chen’s physique from head to toe, and said thoughtfully, “Well, at 35, you’re definitely not young anymore.”

“I’m not 35 just yet, so how can I be that old? I’m only 34.” Su Chen seemed a little irritated and shot Mu Yuchen a dissatisfied look. He then picked up the glass that was just refilled, drank all the wine in one breath, and said in an annoyed tone, “My family is rushing me, and I can’t help but feel a little incompetent.”

“Is it about having kids?” Mu Yuchen caught the message immediately.

Su Chen took another breath and nodded. “Yeah, she doesn’t want to have kids with me, and she said that there’s a generation gap in between us.”

“Huh?” Mu Yuchen was surprised to hear what was on Su Chen’s mind. Ji Zitong seemed to be very attentive when it came to Su Chen and did not look like someone that would have such thoughts.

“She’s not such a woman.” Mu Yuchen gave it a thought while his tone was full of affirmation. “I remember Xiaye once telling me that Ji Zitong likes Xiaocheng very much. She could see the anticipation in her eyes, and I recall that both of you said before that this year’s the time.”

“That was before, and this is obviously now. Her ex got transferred to my precinct a few days ago, so I’m his superior. Zitong came to the precinct the other day...”

“You got caught giving him a hard time, huh?” Mu Yuchen said indifferently.

“You got it. She said that I was being childish and narrow-minded! Do you think that I’m such a person?” Su Chen said with a frown.

“This shouldn’t be your first time trying to sabotage someone. How could you make such a stupid mistake? Have you never considered how to make that person look bad but at the same time showcase your magnanimity?” Mu Yuchen gave him a pregnant gaze.

“I just can’t stand that b*stard. He used a woman as a stepping stone in order to move up the ladder, and now he’s trying to lay his hands on my wife. Who does he think he is? How can I not make his life a living hell?”

“Did he go to see Ji Zitong privately?”

“Of course, and naturally Zitong thought I didn’t know. That b*stard, Dong Wentao, was so presumptuous yesterday that he went into my office and lectured me about true love and first love. Who gave him the guts to do so? Does he think that all the men in the world are dead and that he’s the only one left?” Su Chen finally could not suppress the wrath in him, and his voice was also sharp.

“Ji Zitong is now your official wife, Mrs. Su. Isn’t that enough?”

“You have a smooth relationship with Xiaye. Of course, you won’t understand my worry.”

“It’s rare to see you also worry about your relationship.”

“Just make fun of me if you want. I know this is my retribution. I shouldn’t have mocked you before this. Alright, let’s just drink. Zitong has already gone back to her mother’s house. I guess she won’t be back in another two days while I happen to be leaving Z City for an expedition and study for a few days. Please help me look up all the information about Dong Wentao, then send it to my email. Let’s see how I can get back at him.”

“Where’s your gentlemanly demeanor?”

“F*ck demeanor. If you don’t help me with this, you’ll see the madman in me.”

“Virtue, my friend, virtue!” Mu Yuchen glanced at him, picked up his glass, and made a toast to him. “As you told me before, isn’t it easier to give her a reason to fall for you all over again? Anyway, it’s not like you’ve never been despicable and mean.”

“Shut up!” Su Chen glared at him.

“Don’t mock me with my own words. I’m serious.” Su Chen’s tone sounded helpless at the moment.

“I’m telling the truth.” Mu Yuchen took the wine bottle and filled his glass. He raised his gaze then chuckled. “It’s hard to imagine that karma actually caught up with you.”

“Stop the gloating mockery. Karma’s a b*tch, and it already caught up a long time ago. Otherwise, do you think that I’m a saint? Even you can’t be a saint, so why do you think I get to be one?” Su Chen gave Mu Yuchen a dissatisfied glare as he picked up the glass which had just been filled, and emptied it in a few mouthfuls.

“I’ve told you before. Our hands are helplessly tied ever since we stepped into marriage. You’re facing it, and so am I, and Zimo won’t be able to escape it in the future too.”

Su Chen naturally knew that Mu Yuchen had adopted Qi Weier for quite some time already, and he was actually a little worried deep down, so after thinking about it, he could not help but ask, “You seemed to have made peace with it. And let’s be honest, do you really plan to keep and raise that little girl named Qi Weier like this? Aren’t you worried that Lingtian’s tragedy will happen again? Or are you planning to raise her as Xiao Rui’s wife?”

Mu Yuchen raised his slender brows, giving Su Chen a disapproving gaze. He slowly leaned backward and waved at the woman behind Su Chen. The lady acknowledged the signal and left the room immediately.

Bang!

Mu Yuchen lowered his gaze calmly when he heard the sound of the door closing.

“What other outcome can you come up with? The adoption is a definite green light already. As for what will happen in the future, I’ll leave that to fate. What we told Xiao Rui is that Weier is his elder sister.”

“So, are you saying that your son is a righteous boy who’ll never lay his hands on a nearer and easier target?” Su Chen said.

“If he were to choose to go for the nearer one, your daughter would be the perfect target.” Mu Yuchen smirked and gave Su Chen a mischievous gaze.

“My daughter? Keep dreaming! Even if I were to have a daughter, she’s definitely not going to marry your son. The apple never falls far from the tree. He’ll definitely grow up to be another profiteer just like you. I’ m not going to allow my perfect little girl to fall for the bad boys.” Su Chen creased his brows in disapproval. “Why isn’t it the other way around? My son marrying your daughter?”

“Bro, you need to have one first.”
