Chapter 442: Chapter 440: Do You Need a Favor from Me?_1

There were no village anecdotes, nor were there any detailed exhortations, just these few scant lines...

Na Xiaoxiao’s heart suddenly tightened, as if a huge stone had abruptly pressed down hard on her chest, making her breathing somewhat difficult.

Yes... Five years had flown by in the blink of an eye, and the agreement she had made with her father before she left her hometown was almost due...

She couldn’t possibly stay here forever, she only had five years, five years of unrestricted travel away from home, after which, to remain in the Na Family Village forever.

The people of the Na Family Village could not leave the Na Family Village, a rule that had been in place since her birth, handed down from generation to generation...

She had once asked her father why? But her father had told her with an unprecedented seriousness: there was no why... Rules were rules, and as long as one was from the Na Family Village, they could not be broken.

When she initially left, she didn’t tell her father and mother that it was for Mu Zisu, as they probably wouldn’t have let her step out of the Na Family Village if they knew.

But Aunt Xia did know, which is why she sent her to Mu Zisu’s side, and she repeatedly begged Aunt Xia not to tell her parents.

She had once thought that if Mu Zisu liked her too, her parents would probably agree to let her leave the Na Family Village and marry him...

But the reality proved that he didn’t like her, not at all...

And she, would inevitably return to where she belonged.

But... she really couldn’t bear to part with him, what should she do?

Her gaze was misty as she stared at the clear black brushstrokes on the paper, suddenly feeling lost and helpless. If Mu Zisu liked her, she would have a reason to stay by his side, but his indifference really made her lack the courage to defy the agreement with her father and continue to stay here...

What should she do...

As she was lost in her reverie, the direct phone line to the CEO’s office suddenly rang out, startling her back to reality.

She hesitated for a moment, blinked silently a couple of times, then reached out her hand and picked up the call, "President Mu..."

"Coffee..." The cold voice of Mu Zisu came through the phone.

Na Xiaoxiao frowned involuntarily, drinking coffee so early in the morning...

"Have you had breakfast?" she asked out of the blue, voicing the question from her mind.

He didn’t return home last night and needed coffee so early this morning; he probably hadn’t eaten...

Mu Zisu on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment. Usually, she would silently follow his orders, yet today she even dared to ask back...

"No..."

"I’ll bring you breakfast..." Na Xiaoxiao spoke and before Mu Zisu had a chance to react, she hung up with a snap.

And Mu Zisu was surprised by her action. This woman, she’s grown bolder, daring to hang up on him!

However, thinking that she was going to get breakfast for him, the anger in his heart gradually dissipated like clouds scattered by the wind, and he even felt a vague sense of pleasure.

Na Xiaoxiao quickly went downstairs to bring Mu Zisu some simple nutritious breakfast.

Standing in front of the CEO’s office door, she couldn’t help but recall the letter she had just received. She wondered how many more times she would be able to buy him breakfast.

Suppressing the desolation in her heart, she knocked on the door lightly, and when she heard the familiar voice say "Come in" from inside, she pushed the door and entered.

Mu Zisu’s handsome face bore traces of fatigue, possibly from working late into the night and not resting well; yet even so, it didn’t affect his allure and rather added a lazy charm.

"Come have breakfast..." Na Xiaoxiao walked straight towards the coffee table with the breakfast in hand.

She then set the items on the table, taking them out of the bag and arranging everything neatly.

When she straightened up, Mu Zisu was still sitting at his desk, scrutinizing her with an inquisitive gaze.

Her heart suddenly began to beat faster, "Um... come and eat quickly, it won’t be good if it gets cold..."

"Na Xiaoxiao?" Mu Zisu suddenly fixed his gaze on her and spoke.

"Hm?" She looked puzzled.

"Why so attentive all of a sudden? Is there something you want from me..." She had never taken the initiative to do these things before.

Though she was compliant, she only did what he told her to; if he didn’t say anything, she wouldn’t take any action.

But this time, she actually asked him if he had eaten breakfast and even hung up on him to go buy breakfast for him. If it wasn’t because she wanted something from him, what was it?

Xiaoxiao was stunned by his question.

Want something from him?

Why would he think that?

"No..." She shook her head at him.

"No?" Mu Zisu was somewhat skeptical.

"No..." Xiaoxiao nodded firmly. No meant no.

She had simply bought him breakfast out of kindness. How had that been construed as wanting something from him?

Mu Zisu stood up from his seat...

Then he walked over to her with grace.

A pair of deep black eyes stared intently at her.

Xiaoxiao felt embarrassed under his gaze, not daring to look directly into his captivating eyes.

"So, are you concerned about me?" Mu Zisu asked teasingly.

It was as if Xiaoxiao’s inner thoughts had been revealed, and she quickly shook her head in nervous denial, "I was just worried you wouldn’t have enough energy to work..." She then hurriedly added, "Just... eat it while it’s hot, I’ve got to get back to work..." After saying this, she lowered her head and swiftly left.

Mu Zisu watched her hurried departure, a fleeting shadow crossing the depths of his eyes.

Then he turned to look at the breakfast laid out on the table, his breathtakingly beautiful lips curling into a slight smile.

At ten o’clock in the morning, an explosive piece of news was suddenly broadcast on several major television channels.

National heartthrob Pei Mojing had been captured in a photo with a woman, both sitting close together in what seemed like a very intimate setting. They appeared to be on a vacation abroad, and, upon their return flight, were photographed.

When this news broke out, it instantly caused a myriad of fans to faint in bathrooms.

What happened to not dating anyone publicly while in the circle?

How did these intimate and warm photos emerge overnight?

Who was that woman? How could she stealthily harvest their national heartthrob?

A bunch of fans were crying their hearts out—

Pei Mojing debuted at eighteen and had been in the industry for ten years without a single rumor of romance with any star or woman.

He even held a press conference where he declared that he would not have a girlfriend while in the circle. So why, why then has a woman suddenly appeared?

At a certain press conference venue, Mojing was getting ready for the event in the green room when the photos from the plane yesterday suddenly surfaced...

Upon seeing those photos, he was not angry or enraged; instead, he was inexplicably happy!

For the first time in his life, he felt a surge of gratitude for paparazzi! Without them, how would he have been linked with her again?

If she saw this news, would she be happy or angry? Would she come to find him?
