Mr. Mu Proposed Again Today
Chapter 434 - 432 What Kind of Fool?_1

Chapter 434: Chapter 432 What Kind of Fool?_1

Yesterday evening, he had actually been aroused by her...

"Good morning, President..." A senior executive passed by, bowing his head slightly in greeting.

He snapped back to reality, nodding slightly--

As he walked, he couldn’t help but recall the medicine Xiaoxiao had just been holding. Silly woman! She must have not dried her hair properly after he left last night. He remembered that after laying her on the bed, his shirt had been drenched by her long hair...

Xiaoxiao hurried back to her office, slammed the door shut, then clutched her wildly beating heart, a look of distress on her face.

How could she face him after this!

But now the problem had already arisen...

All morning, many documents had been submitted from various departments, all needing his personal review and signature. What to do...

She rested her forehead on her hand, lost in thought.

She had always wanted to see him at every moment, because she felt secure and sweet when she saw him, and for no reason at all, she would be especially happy.

But ever since last night’s incident, she was afraid to face him. The feeling was so contradictory—wanting to see him yet not daring to. It was really annoying...

After lowering her gaze in contemplation for a while, she suddenly lifted her head...

How could she forget, she wasn’t the only one in the secretarial office...

Mu Zisu returned to his office, just as he hung up his coat, a knock sounded on the door of the president’s office.

He walked toward his desk and uttered a word of permission to enter.

The moment the door opened, he couldn’t help but lift his eyes to look. At the sight, he involuntarily furrowed his brows.

The little secretary, clutching a thick stack of documents, couldn’t find her voice in the tension upon seeing Mu Zisu’s expression.

It was her first time having such a close encounter with the incredibly handsome president—she was so excited, but why did he have that expression upon seeing her...

"President... I am... Yuan Fei from the secretarial office, these documents all require your personal signature..." said the little secretary named Yuan Fei, gathering her courage.

Only then did Mu Zisu nod his head: "Hmm... bring them here..."

As Yuan Fei carefully placed the documents on the desk, she couldn’t help but steal glances at her impressively gallant president.

"Where’s the secretary?" Mu Zisu lifted his eyes to look at her.

She was startled, bowing her head and speaking softly, "The secretary said she wasn’t feeling well..."

"Alright, get busy," Mu Zisu nodded, then turned his attention to the documents in his hand, silent.

"Yes..."

After the little secretary left, Mu Zisu pressed the button for the direct line to the secretarial office.

Xiaoxiao was spacing out when the phone on her desk suddenly rang, startling her back to reality.

Seeing the caller ID on the phone, she immediately scowled. Hadn’t she already sent the documents over? Why was he looking for her again?

She ultimately didn’t have the courage not to answer his call. Closing her eyes, she clenched her teeth and picked up the phone.

"President Mu..."

"If you are feeling unwell, then go home. Don’t let people say that I mistreat my subordinates..."

The cool voice that came through the phone made Xiaoxiao’s eyes widen. She couldn’t have heard wrong, could she? He had actually told her to go home? And... how did he know she wasn’t feeling well?

"Also... don’t end up in the wrong room again..." Mu Zisu finished speaking and hung up the phone without waiting for a response.

All that was left was Xiaoxiao, staring with wide eyes, dazed.

Stop walking into the wrong room, okay?

Oh god! Was he hinting at what happened last night?

She instantly felt disheveled by the wind...

Xiaoxiao was very dedicated. Although Mu Zisu had told her to go back, she still stayed at the office until six before she started packing to leave work.

After taking some medicine, she felt a bit better, but still felt groggy and sleepy.

As she left the secretary’s office, thinking about heading downstairs to catch a taxi straight home, she decided it was best not to drive herself in her current state.

But just as she pulled the door open, as luck would have it, she ran into Mu Zisu coming from the direction of the CEO’s office. Whether coming or going, one had to pass through the secretary’s office and the secretary’s front desk to get to the CEO’s office.

Mu Zisu seemed surprised to see her still at the office at this hour. Had her cold gotten better?

Xiaoxiao had nowhere to run this time and had to face the music, putting on a smile uglier than crying as she grinned foolishly at Mu Zisu.

Mu Zisu frowned slightly, thinking this woman must have a fever.

"Why haven’t you left?" he asked, stopping in front of her.

The people in the secretary’s office immediately began to crane their necks, trying to sneak a peek at the two standing outside the door.

Their looks were as gossipy as you could get.

"Hehe... I’m leaving now..." Xiaoxiao continued to giggle foolishly.

Mu Zisu was now quite sure this woman’s brain had been scorched silly.

"Let’s go..." he said, and then took the lead and walked on ahead.

After a couple of steps, realizing that the person behind him wasn’t following, he turned around impatiently, "What’s wrong with you?"

Xiaoxiao, seeing the impatience on his face, immediately quickened her step to catch up with him while complaining in her heart: Why be so fierce! Doesn’t he know she’s sick right now?

Moreover... if it weren’t for him, she wouldn’t be sick!

She really felt terrible...

Xiaoxiao, holding a grudge, didn’t even glance at Mu Zisu when they reached the parking lot. She opened the door on the other side and nonchalantly took a seat.

Her head throbbed, and she needed to rest...

She closed her eyes and leaned against the soft leather backrest, and before she knew it, she had lost consciousness...

As the car slowly moved, Mu Zisu glanced at Xiaoxiao beside him and his eyes, filled with unclear meaning, landed on her beautiful and pure face.

Her eyebrows, shaped like crescent moons, were slightly furrowed at this moment. Her long eyelashes gently rested on her lower eyelid, like a veil, covering her closed eyes.

His mind couldn’t help but recall how those eyes looked when they were open, clear as water, shining like myriad stars—

Indeed, when he first met her, what left the deepest impression on him were those eyes—sparkling, beautiful, but most importantly, clear...

There wasn’t a speck of dust in the depths of her eyes, so pure they seemed to mirror the most honest part of the soul.

His gaze drifted downward, involuntarily settling on her rose-petal-like red lips, and a sudden restlessness surged in his heart...

The more agitated he felt, the more the image of the crystal-clear, jade-like body from last night invaded his mind.

He turned his face away, annoyed with himself. This woman had quite the talent! Again and again, she had made him lose self-control.

He was a normal man, but had a strong aversion to those women who drooled over him. And this woman, who had quietly been by his side for 5 years, hadn’t once swooned over him. Was his attractiveness not enough in her eyes?

At this moment, Mu Zisu began to doubt his own charm...

But how could he know that what Xiaoxiao felt for him was more than just a simple crush?
