Chapter 463: Chapter 461 Slimming Effect of Clothing_1

Mu Zisu gave a faint nod after hearing her response, hummed an acknowledgment, and then took the lead walking forward.

Xiaoxiao blinked in confusion. What did that hum mean?

Not having time to think too much, she hurriedly quickened her pace to follow the figure in front of her.

When they reached the parking lot, the driver was already waiting there. This time, however, Mu Zisu didn’t head straight for the back door of the car; instead, he stood outside the driver’s side and said indifferently, "You go back first..."

The driver immediately understood his intention, got out of the car without a word, "Young Master... be careful on the road..."

"Mm..." Mu Zisu nodded and then got into the driver’s seat.

Xiaoxiao was somewhat dumbfounded. What was he doing?

Was he planning to drive her home himself?

Mu Zisu generally didn’t drive; he had a personal driver available twenty-four hours a day, on call at any time.

Thus, for so long, Xiaoxiao had only ridden in his car twice, and those times had been thanks to Old Master Su’s involvement.

But now, with just the two of them, she really wasn’t quite used to it.

She hesitated momentarily outside the car before reaching out to open the back door. As she was about to bend down and get in, she heard Mu Zisu from the driver’s seat, "The front..."

Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat, then she reluctantly walked to the front and opened the passenger door to get in.

Only then did Mu Zisu start the car and slowly drive off...

Xiaoxiao thought he was taking her home, but unexpectedly, he parked the car in front of a Western restaurant on their way.

Only then did she realize he had sent the driver away first because he wanted to take her out to eat.

Her heart suddenly began beating rapidly; she felt both nervous and excited.

She had not expected that Mu Zisu would go out of his way to show concern for her this time.

"Get out..."

When the car stopped, she was still sitting in her seat, motionless, filled with excitement.

As Mu Zisu got out and closed the car door, he frowned and couldn’t help but remind her.

This woman... still spacing out while she’s with him!

Xiaoxiao’s face flushed, and she pressed her hand to her forehead. My goodness! What was she daydreaming about!

She quickly unfastened her seatbelt and got out of the car.

By the time she got out, Mu Zisu had already started walking towards the entrance of the restaurant.

Xiaoxiao ran a little to catch up behind him, her heart fluttering with indescribable joy.

Mu Zisu didn’t look for a private room; instead, he chose a seat by the window in the main hall and sat down.

The waiter approached their table with a smile, menu in hand. Xiaoxiao reached out to take it first. After looking through it, she ordered a steak in Mu Zisu’s favorite style and then selected a serving of pasta for herself. Why did she let Mu Zisu have the meat dish while she had pasta? Wasn’t it because girls who eat too much in the evening tend to gain weight?

Mu Zisu was used to Xiaoxiao ordering for him. As his assistant, knowing his dietary preferences was the bare minimum.

However, he truly didn’t know what she liked or disliked.

Seeing that she had only ordered a serving of pasta, he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and ask her, "Don’t you like steak?" He would’ve chosen a Chinese restaurant if he had known in advance.

Xiaoxiao was utterly surprised. She suddenly began to doubt whether Mu Zisu had taken the wrong medicine tonight, being so attentive to her...

She shook her head with a smile, "No, eating meat at night is prone to cause weight gain," she actually quite liked Western food, having lived in Canada for five years, she was accustomed to it.

After hearing her reply, Mu Zisu’s dark and unfathomable eyes couldn’t help but sweep over her petite frame twice.

Xiaoxiao, though small in stature, had given Mu Zisu the impression during dinner the other night that she was slim in a way that clothes flattered her, and he was quite satisfied with her figure, and the feel was also nice.

At this thought, he suddenly cursed silently in his heart, damn it, why was he thinking about that night again!

Xiaoxiao felt somewhat embarrassed under his stare, but soon she saw his face turn stern, her heart skipped a beat, she hadn’t said anything to upset him, had she?

"Have the recent overtime been tiring?"

As she was wondering what she might have done to offend him, Mu Zisu’s cold voice reached her again.

She suddenly lifted her head and crashed into his abyss-like dark eyes.

In just a second, she awkwardly shifted her gaze away, then, somewhat nervously, said, "Um, it’s okay," she was lying if she said she wasn’t tired, but she could still handle it.

Mu Zisu hadn’t expected her to be so honest, actually admitting she was tired.

He glanced at her and said lightly, "If you’re tired, leave work early and go home..."

Xiaoxiao listened, puzzled; if she didn’t go home after work, where else could she go? There weren’t any close friends here, except Shanshan, and they lived in the same building.

So, she genuinely didn’t grasp the meaning behind Mu Zisu’s words, taking it as a casual remark showing concern for an employee, and lightly nodded, "Mhm..."

With her response, Mu Zisu finally nodded his head in satisfaction.

Xiaoxiao found it all quite strange; ever since that night she had dinner with Mu Zisu, it seemed like her work had returned to its normal routine.

The workload in the morning and afternoon was almost even, and past six o’clock, as long as there wasn’t any urgent matter, she could pack up her things and leave work.

But then again, wasn’t it like this before? It could only be said that the company was indeed busy for those few days...

That day, close to quitting time, Mu Zisu called Xiaoxiao to tell her to go home by herself after work as he had two friends from overseas coming to C City on business and he was going to dine with them.

In fact, Mu Zisu had considered whether to take her along, but he was just dining with friends, not on official business. Taking her along would be hard to explain, so, it was simpler to let her go home by herself.

After hanging up Mu Zisu’s call, Xiaoxiao was getting ready to pack up and leave when her phone rang.

She picked it up and saw that it was Zhuo Shaoqing. In the past few days, he had called her almost daily, but she really was working overtime every day. Now that she finally had no messages from him these past two days, he suddenly called again...

She answered--

"Miss Xiaoxiao, are you working overtime again today?" Zhuo Shaoqing’s playful voice came from the other end of the phone.

She smiled, "No, I’m not today, I was just about to leave work..."

"OK, I’ll come pick you up, let’s go have dinner tonight,"

Xiaoxiao laughed, "Why are you treating me to dinner?"

"Well, you’ll find out soon enough..."

"Alright then,"

By the time Xiaoxiao tidied up a bit and arrived at the Mu Group building downstairs, Zhuo Shaoqing was already waiting there.

Xiaoxiao shook her head in amazement, "Are you lightning fast or what?"

Zhuo Shaoqing shook out his bangs and said with flair, "Miss Xiaoxiao, I am lightning speed, lightning speed is me..."
