Five p.m.

Pei Yanzhou finished a small meeting with his department and was about to enter the office door when someone suddenly called him from behind.

"Yan Zhou..."

Mu Ruoqi stood behind her. She wore a taro purple sweater on her upper body and a skirt on her lower body. Her long hair was slightly curly and she was tall and full of femininity.

"come in."

Pei Yanzhou opened the door.

The secretary behind him cleverly blocked the door that would close automatically, allowing Mu Ruoqi to enter.

Wherever the woman passes, the fragrance fills her nostrils.

The secretary sighed in a low voice, "This seems to be the third time Miss Mu has come this month. Assistant Yang, do you think this will become the future CEO's wife?"

Yang Kai glanced at her and said, "It's not that easy to become the CEO's wife. Secretary Chen, please stop meddling in the CEO's personal affairs and go to work."

Secretary Chen returned to the secretary's office.

Several little secretaries were having snacks.

"Secretary Chen, you came just in time. Miss Mu just brought us two boxes of fried mochi."

A young secretary who had just graduated said vaguely, "I don't know where I bought it. This fried mochi is very fragrant and has a very strong taste. It's really delicious."

"It's really delicious." Another secretary also said, "Secretary Chen, give it a try."

Secretary Chen took over and said, "This Miss Mu is quite good at getting things done."

"Yes, I always come back empty-handed. Although the things I bring don't cost much, they are delicious." The young secretary said with emotion, "Sister Chen, why don't we please her a little? I heard that she and Mr. Pei were together since childhood. When she grows up, she will definitely have a good relationship, and she may become our president’s wife in the future.”

Secretary Chen thought to herself, it turned out that she was not the only one who thought so.

It's just that Yang Kai has always been President Pei's confidant. Yang Kai seems to have an indifferent attitude. It is still a bit difficult for Mu Ruoqi to become the CEO's wife.

"Okay, we just need to complete the work assigned by the president. There is no need to think about those messy thoughts. Don't forget our own work."

Secretary Chen reminded.

……

The office next door.

The waiter brought a cup of coffee and put it on the coffee table in front of Mu Ruoqi.

"Thank you."

Mu Ruoqi showed a decent smile, and after the tea waiter left, she turned her attention to the man sitting in the office chair.

"I'm looking for a housekeeper around here in the afternoon. My mother's chest has been a bit tight these days and she doesn't feel well if she does even a little bit of work. My father isn't a workhorse either, so I thought I'd better spend some money to hire a nanny to take care of me. They forget it."

Pei Yanzhou, who had finished signing a document, raised his head and said, "I have already persuaded my uncle and aunt to let them hire a nanny."

"I have also advised you. My parents are reluctant to part with it. As you know, they have saved their whole life and got used to it. I thought I would pay the money for the nanny first. Then it will be useless for my parents to object." Mu Ruoqi smiled.

Pei Yanzhou said "Yes" lightly, "If Auntie still has chest tightness, remember to take her to the hospital for a review."

"Mom doesn't want to go to the hospital at all right now. She has been staying there for more than a month and is very resistant. I'm afraid you will have to persuade me to do so."

Mu Ruoqi took a sip of coffee, her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, "Yan Zhou, you are going to get off work soon. Do you want to go to my house for dinner tonight? My parents miss you very much. I will cook by then. It's all the time at home recently. I cook, and my cooking skills have greatly improved.”

Pei Yanzhou's hand holding the pen paused.

In fact, Cheng Xi doesn't care about him now. He can go to Mu's house at any time.

only…….

He suddenly realized that he didn't really want to go.

"Ruoqi, I'm sorry, I have some entertainment tonight." Pei Yanzhou raised his head and said.

Mu Ruoqi's eyes suddenly became disappointed, "Then when are you free? By the way, one of my students' parents works at the Grand Theater. She said that on the 10th of this month, the Royal Orchestra of Country R will come to Suzhou to perform a musical. , let’s go watch it together, I remember the last time we watched a show together was nine years ago, I haven’t been there for a long time.”

Pei Yanzhou looked at Mu Ruoqi's expectant eyes and was silent for a moment. His handsome face suddenly became determined, "I'm sorry, Ruoqi, you'd better find someone else to accompany you. I believe that on your terms, I am willing to accompany you to watch the song and dance." There will be a lot of people in the drama, I am busy with work and have no other thoughts."

Mu Ruoqi's expectant eyes suddenly turned deeply disappointed and sad, "If it were Cheng Xi, I'm afraid you would have turned it down no matter how busy you were at work."

Mention Cheng Xi.

Pei Yanzhou's heart shrank and he simply fell silent.

Seeing this, Mu Ruoqi became even more jealous, "Yan Zhou, you and Cheng Xi are over. You can't stay unmarried for the rest of your life. You have to look forward."

"Ruoqi, even if I get married in the future, it won't be you."

Pei Yanzhou has been very evasive ever since he found out about Mu Ruoqi's feelings for him. This is the first time he has completely exposed it, "I'm sorry, I have always only regarded you as a family member, and there is no relationship between men and women."

Mu Ruoqi's face suddenly turned pale, "You... you know."

"I'm sorry, I can't respond to your feelings."

Pei Yanzhou said in a low voice.

Mu Ruoqi suddenly became excited, "We grew up together. I have known since I was very young that we are not related by blood, and you are so good to me. If you and Cheng Xi truly love each other and are happy with each other, , we have no emotional conflicts with each other, and I am willing to make things happen for you, but you both broke up, why are you not willing to give me even a chance."

Tears and pain flowed out.

Mu Ruoqi said with tears in her eyes, "I like you, I love you, and I care about you as a person. It has nothing to do with your identity. Do you still remember the time I fell ill in junior high school? The high fever persisted and my parents were not at home. You anxiously carried me and ran barefoot for a long time. From that moment on, I fell in love with you. You went to study abroad in college. I thought about confessing to you when you came back, but I didn't think about it. There will be car accidents on the road to the airport.

When I woke up, I found that seven or eight years had passed, and I heard that you had a girlfriend. At that time, I was so grateful that I could only suppress myself and wish you well.

Yan Zhou, we understand each other. As long as you are willing to give me a chance, I will become a good wife and work hard to be worthy of you.

My parents definitely want us to be together. "

Pei Yanzhou took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Ruoqi, I said, I treated you like a family member at that time, so I would care about you and treat you well. If I can't marry the one I love in the future, then I will I hope I marry a well-matched woman who is calm, rational and smart. She doesn’t need to have too much affection for me. To be honest, I have too much affection and I can’t bear it because I can’t respond. I’ve loved her too. I understand that the deeper you love, the more you hope others will respond with the same affection.

Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu would naturally like to see us together, but my biological parents would not.

The Mu family has been kind to me, but I can't repay this kindness with my whole life marriage. Besides, I don't owe the Mu family anymore, I have paid off everything that is due. "
