The president always wants to steal my sweet potato

Lu Chengfeng asked: "What's the matter?"

Hearing this, Mu Yaqi looked at him and said, "Nothing."

Then she raised her head to signal him, saying, "We have a rare moment of free time. Let's watch some cartoons."

Lu Chengfeng looked at her for a while, but didn't see anything, so he didn't ask any more questions. He replied, "Okay."

Mu Yaqi looked at it for a while, but found that she couldn't concentrate at all now, and her whole mind was on Lu Chengfeng.

Mu Yaqi: "......"

Mu Yaqi sighed softly.

Seeing this, Lu Chengfeng lowered his head slightly and asked softly: "Can you tell me what's wrong now?"

Mu Yaqi pouted and said rather depressedly: "It's nothing, actually. I was just wondering what you will become in the future."

Mu Yaqi raised her eyes to look at him. For some reason, Lu Chengfeng felt that her eyes looked a little dull.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and asked softly, "So what exactly did you imagine me to be like that would make you unable to watch your favorite cartoons?"

Mu Yaqi hesitated and said, "I'm afraid of you..."

Lu Chengfeng said: "Just tell me directly. If we know in advance, we can choose to avoid it. If we can't change it, we can face it together. Don't worry, I'm always here."

Mu Yaqi thought about it for a while and said, "It's not a big deal, but I'm afraid that you will miss a lot of things you like because of me, or you will hate something but want to understand it because of me. I don't want you to lose yourself because of me."

Lu Chengfeng smiled softly, and quietly lowered his arm from the sofa, tentatively resting it on Mu Yaqi's shoulder. Mu Yaqi did not react. Lu Chengfeng felt relieved and said, "No."

Mu Yaqi looked at him, blinked to express her confusion, and motioned for him to continue.

Lu Chengfeng said: "It's a good thing to know more. Besides, judging from what you said to me today, I believe you won't let me lose the things I like, not to mention——"

Lu Chengfeng paused, his eyes were gentle but bright, he looked at her and smiled, "I don't have many things I like."

Mu Yaqi looked at him, always feeling that he was hinting at something.

Mu Yaqi looked away and switched channels one after another. She was silent for a moment and said, "Otherwise... go to work."

After that, she looked up at Lu Chengfeng. Lu Chengfeng said, "That's fine. I'll do as you say."

Mu Yaqi said, "We finally have some free time. I wonder if going to work will ruin the mood."

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "No, you always finished your work ahead of time before, and the time limit was very high, but you haven't had much time and energy to focus on your work recently, so I guess if you delay any further, you'll have to work all night, right?"

Mu Yaqi's eyes went dark, and she said depressedly: "Although what you said doesn't sound very nice, it is indeed the fact."

Lu Chengfeng asked: "So are you going to work now? I'll accompany you."

Mu Yaqi looked at him pitifully: "Then can you help me look at some contracts?"

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Of course, it is my responsibility to help Madam solve her problems."

Mu Yaqi narrowed her eyes and smiled, then happily pulled him to the study on the third floor.

Mu Yaqi pulled an ergonomic chair from the side to the opposite side of her desk and asked Lu Chengfeng to sit down. Then she took out a stack of contracts from the cabinet on the desk, put them in front of Lu Chengfeng, clapped her hands, raised her head to him happily, and said, "They look good, ah."

Then he took out a pile of contracts, fiddled with them on his phone for a while, and then sat down and looked at them one by one.

Lu Chengfeng looked at the thick stack of papers in front of him and asked in surprise, "So many?"

Mu Yaqi smiled at him and said, "There will be more in a while. The ones in the company's office are almost piled up like a mountain. I just asked someone to clean them up and they will be delivered in a while."

Lu Chengfeng: “…”

He swallowed and accepted the fact. Then he picked up the contract and started reading it. While reading, he was still thinking: Is it because of him that her efficiency has become lower?

Thinking of this, Lu Chengfeng watched more enthusiastically and efficiently, but overall his speed was comparable to Mu Yaqi's.

After reading them, he opened them and put them aside so that Mu Yaqi could sign them directly later. He closed the ones that he couldn't sign and put them aside.

The sun was getting softer, no longer as scorching as it was at noon. Soon, half of the contract in front of him was gone, and half of the contract in front of Mu Yaqi was gone as well.

Seeing this, Mu Yaqi held her contract together, turned it around, and placed it in front of Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyes to look at her, and she smiled and said, "You watch it first, I'll sign first."

Lu Chengfeng smiled helplessly: "Okay."

Mu Yaqi picked up the pen beside her and began to sign.

Lu Chengfeng glanced at her and was mesmerized by her focused look.

The warm yellow light from the sun shining through the window cast a faint circle of light on her body, making her look calm and peaceful, with great gentle charm.

But the expression on her face was so serious, and her brows were as heavy as if there were thick clouds. It looked so contrasting that one couldn't help but wonder what she was worried about.

Lu Chengfeng watched her sign expressionlessly, then closed the contract, put it aside, signed again, closed it, and put it aside. She repeated the same action mechanically, and she felt numb all over.

Lu Chengfeng laughed softly, and Mu Yaqi looked up when she heard it: "What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"

She saw him holding a contract in his hand, leaning back in his chair casually, looking at her with a smile in his eyes. She couldn't help but feel puzzled, and asked tentatively, "Another invalid contract?"

Although there were some problems with the contract, they were all minor and there were not too many problems. In just a short while, they only found two contracts that were not very standardized and put them aside for the time being.

Lu Chengfeng shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with this contract."

Mu Yaqi asked curiously: "Then why are you laughing? Is there a bug on my face?"

Lu Chengfeng said, "No. It's just that the weather is good today, but our CEO Mu is still here signing the contract. It's hard not to feel sorry for us. We won't be able to see many beautiful views today."

Mu Yaqi pouted: "If you have the ability, help me watch it, I will go out and play by myself."

Lu Chengfeng pretended to be pitiful and coaxed her, "I don't have the ability of President Mu. At best, I can only take a look at the contents of the contract. I can't sign it."

Mu Yaqi said, "How about I go through the procedures with you and ask you to sign this as well."

Lu Chengfeng waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, no, no, Madam, you are joking. The company belongs to you, so of course only you can sign it."

Mu Yaqi snorted proudly, then lowered her head and continued signing.

Seeing this, Lu Chengfeng smiled and shook his head.

I always feel that my wife is a little too naive. Not only did she let him look at the contract, but she also signed it directly without confirming it at all.

Lu Chengfeng finished reading the one in his hand, put it aside, and then picked up the next one to start reading. As he read, he said, "I have a question."

Mu Yaqi didn't even raise her head: "Speak."

Lu Chengfeng asked: "Before me, have you ever asked other people for help?"

Mu Yaqi stopped what she was doing, looked at him with a look of despair, and said, "Before you, I have never been so busy."

She thought angrily: Falling in love affects my career.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Calm down, I am here to help you solve your problems. We are both happy and you have gained an assistant, this is a good thing~"

Mu Yaqi thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Well... falling in love not only does not affect your career, it can also bring you happiness.

But...why doesn't she feel happy now, but instead feels like the deadline is approaching and she has to build a tall building from scratch?

Oh, never mind. I can’t finish reading it and I still have the mood to think about this and that.

She continued to sign mechanically, and Lu Chengfeng did his best to help her. About an hour later, Mu Yaqi's phone rang.

She didn't look at the caller's note and just thought that the caller was here to deliver the contract. She picked up the phone, but before she could say anything, she heard a cheerful voice from the other end: "Sister! I'm downstairs now. Do you want me to deliver these things to you?"

Mu Yaqi: "......"

She saw Lu Chengfeng in front of her raised his eyebrows at her.

Mu Yaqi: "......"

Mu Yaqi said: "Okay, thank you for your help."

Xia Silan said: "No trouble~ My sister's business is my business! I'll hang up now~"

"Beep, beep, beep--" Mu Yaqi didn't even have time to ask him why he came before she heard him hang up the phone.

Mu Yaqi smiled: "......"

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, and said, "It seems that Mr. Mu has a distinguished guest visiting his home today."

Mu Yaqi ignored his teasing and said in a serious tone, "Hide quickly."

Lu Chengfeng's pupils dilated: "?"

He asked in confusion: "Why should I hide when the young master of the Xia family is here? Am I not worthy of being seen?"

Mu Yaqi said: "If he sees you here, he will inevitably stay here for a while. I don't want to see two childish ghosts fighting."

Lu Chengfeng sighed and said, "Okay. For the sake of Madam's peace and quiet, I am willing to hide for a while."

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyes to look at her and asked expectantly, "Where are you hiding?"

Mu Yaqi pursed her lips, looked around, and said, "Follow me."

......

Xia Silan carried two boxes into the house, then took the elevator upstairs to carry them up. After placing the two boxes at the door of Mu Yaqi's study, he went down again, and when he came up again, he was holding two more boxes in his hands.

Xia Silan made four trips in total. One of the trips was to deliver fruits and snacks, which he handed to Aunt Xu on the first floor. The other three trips were to carry boxes upstairs.
