Mr. Mu Proposed Again Today
Chapter 447 - 445: It’s Not Going to Cause a Fatality, Right?_1

Chapter 447: Chapter 445: It’s Not Going to Cause a Fatality, Right?_1

Xiaoxiao felt that Mu Zisu was sometimes quite adorable, like now. Although his expression was indifferent, the words he spoke made her want to laugh but dare not, causing her discomfort, so she could only gently shake her shoulders.

However, Mu Zisu suddenly looked up at her. She instantly straightened her face, trying desperately to suppress the laughter in her heart without daring to move an inch.

"If you want to laugh, just laugh... Isn’t it uncomfortable to hold it in?" Mu Zisu said with a frown.

At this, Xiaoxiao didn’t burst into laughter, but Mu Zixuan next to her did, laughing out loud.

"Xiaoxiao... If you want to laugh, just laugh. You don’t have to keep up appearances for him..."

Xiaoxiao: "......"

After breakfast, the three of them left the house together and went to work.

Mu Zixuan swaggered off in her own car, while Mu Zisu’s driver had been waiting in the car for a while.

Just as Xiaoxiao was about to head to the garage, Mu Zisu suddenly spoke up, "Let’s go together..."

Xiaoxiao’s heart thumped twice, a bit nervously, she nodded at him.

In fact, she wasn’t accustomed to riding in the same car with him. She was afraid that her nervousness would show.

However, having been by his side for so long, she knew him well enough. Despite his stern face, he was very proud. If she declined his offer now, she would face his cold demeanor for several days, and from then on, he would never ask her to share a car with him again.

The weather today was particularly fine, the sky as blue as washed satin, clear and bright.

The sunlight streamed through the glass and landed on Xiaoxiao. She lowered her head, looking at a ray of light in her hand, slowly tightening her fingers, but all she could grasp was the transparent air.

The presence of the person beside her was overwhelmingly strong. Even sitting tightly against the car window, she could still feel the cool aura emanating from him.

Her eyes dulled, and as she gazed at the golden light on her hand, a slight pang of pain shot through her heart. She was like a tiny flower in the corner, while he was the dazzling sun in the sky...

She longed for the warmth he could provide, yet she was ultimately unable to receive it. Falling in love with someone she shouldn’t have was so exhausting... but she still didn’t want to give up. She indeed had learned to be greedy...

Mu Zisu leaned back against the comfortable backrest, eyes slightly closed. Although the person in the corner didn’t make a sound, he could distinctly sense the faint fragrance emanating from her.

In his mind, he involuntarily pictured her delicate, jade-like body, and he couldn’t help but frown. Damn it! Why did he keep thinking about that night’s scenes these days?

And that woman, who had cursed at him like a wild kitten and pointed fingers at him, afterward acted as if nothing had ever happened, continuing as usual with her meekness. Should he say she was aware of her place, or that she was incredibly stupid? Being seen by him in her entirety and yet still managing to seem so unperturbed.

The more he thought about it, the more a layer of faint anger colored his heart. Any other woman would have probably taken the opportunity to cling to him endlessly, unlike this woman, who was truly foolish!

Arriving at the company, another busy day began. Xiaoxiao generally went to the company cafeteria for lunch. At 12 noon, she and the other two people from the secretary’s office went down to the restaurant together.

After the three of them got their meals and sat down, the people at the table behind them started a lively conversation.

"Hey? Did you know? I heard our CEO is still single..."

"I heard that too, definitely a diamond-level eligible bachelor!"

"Yes, yes... I heard he’s just as faithful as our former CEO~~"

"It’s really hard these days to find a wealthy and handsome man who isn’t a playboy!"

"One of these days I should find out where he hangs out and have a romantic encounter. Maybe our CEO will fall in love with me at first sight..."

"Ha! Keep dreaming..."

"Ha ha..."

Xiaoxiao, hearing the remarks of the people behind her, couldn’t help but laugh and shake her head. In fact, when she first came, she had also wondered if he would fall in love with her at first sight, just like she did with him, but reality proved that it really was a daydream.

"That secretary... You’ve been following our CEO for some time now, do you know what type of girl our CEO likes?" one of them asked in a low voice, eyes wide with curiosity.

"Yeah... I really want to know too, just tell us..." another one quietly chimed in.

Xiaoxiao frowned, then responded, "This... I don’t know... "

"Don’t know?" both exclaimed in unison.

"Yeah, I don’t know..." she shook her head again, not that she didn’t want to tell them, but because she truly didn’t know.

"Alright then..." Both of them looked dejected all at once.

Xiaoxiao winked at them twice.

It was past seven in the evening. Xiaoxiao prepared to pack up and leave work. Just as she was about to stand up and leave, the desk phone rang.

"Mr. Mu..."

"I might not get off work until nine, you go ahead and leave first..."

Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, "Oh... then I’ll wait a bit longer, there are still some things I haven’t finished..."

"As you wish..."

After hanging up the phone, Xiaoxiao sat back down at her desk.

Actually, she had finished her work a long time ago, only that upon hearing he wouldn’t return until nine, she thought he must be like her, not having had dinner yet, and there were still two hours until nine.

She rummaged around in the office for half an hour and then boldly went to the CEO’s office.

When Mu Zisu saw her, he slightly raised an eyebrow, "Why haven’t you left yet?"

"Um... I haven’t finished my work, I was thinking of going downstairs to buy something to eat, do you want me to bring back something for you?" Xiaoxiao asked timidly, standing by the door.

Mu Zisu didn’t expect her to say this. He looked at her, thought for a moment, then nodded, "Mhm..."

Xiaoxiao always knew what he liked to eat, so without saying anything more, she closed the door behind her and turned to leave.

Once downstairs, she stood in front of the Mu Group building, scanning the area. She remembered there seemed to be a Chinese restaurant across the street, she might as well check it out...

At the moment, the light was green, but only for about ten seconds. She quickened her pace, yet just when she was a little more than a meter from the other side of the road, time ran out. Watching the cars that hadn’t quite started moving yet, she took a breath and tried to run across, but just then, a car swished out from the right!

Frightened, she stumbled, twisted her ankle, and lost her balance. The car accelerated too fiercely, grazing her knee before it came to a stop!

"Ah!" she cried out lowly as she fiercely fell to the ground.

The driver immediately got out, shrieking loudly.

"My God! This better not turn into a fatality!"

Xiaoxiao, lying on the ground clutching her painfully sore right knee, rolled her eyes at this comment. Couldn’t this person watch their words!
