Chapter 468: Chapter 466 Showing Goodwill to the Big Boss_1

Regarding Xiaoxiao’s mistake, Mu Zisu glanced over it indifferently and did not show any sign of impatience, yet he still hadn’t uttered a single word to her.

Xiaoxiao couldn’t help feeling bitter, thinking, could it be that he couldn’t even be bothered to give me a cold look now?

But in the following days, she truly saw just how cold Mu Zisu could be.

Whether at the Mu Family home or in the company, he treated her as if she were transparent...

Unless it was about work-related matters, which forced him to speak to her, he never, at any other time, spared her even a glance...

Mu Zixuan also noticed the unusual behavior between the two. One evening, while Xiaoxiao went downstairs to get water, Zixuan pulled her into her room...

"Xiaoxiao... What’s going on with you and Yaoyao these days? Why haven’t you said a word?"

Xiaoxiao lowered her lashes, suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and gently shook her head.

"You don’t know or you don’t want to say?" Mu Zixuan stared with her big eyes.

Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "I don’t know..."

Mu Zixuan raised her eyebrows in surprise, her clear eyes turning as she tentatively said, "Did you have some kind of argument with Yaoyao?"

Xiaoxiao shook her head, who would dare to argue with him?

"No?"

"No..." she nodded firmly.

"Then did you do something that upset him?"

Xiaoxiao blinked as she thought for a moment, then continued to shake her head, "I don’t think so..."

"So what exactly is going on? Yaoyao has definitely been off lately..." Mu Zixuan said with certainty.

"I don’t know..."

"When did things between you two start to change?"

Xiaoxiao suddenly lifted her head as if she had just realized something...

"Xiaoxiao... Have you thought of something?" Mu Zixuan leaned in closer to her.

"It seems to have started after that night when I finished celebrating Zhuo Shaoqing’s birthday. That evening I ran into him when I came back... It’s been like this since that night. But before leaving work that day, he had clearly called me saying he had a dinner appointment with friends and told me to go home first... When I came home that night, he treated me like air, and it continued until now..." Xiaoxiao’s face was filled with melancholy.

But Mu Zixuan heard a lot of information in her words...

"Xiaoxiao... Did you say Yaoyao called you that evening and asked you to go home first?" Mu Zixuan exclaimed in surprise...

"Mhm..." Xiaoxiao nodded.

Mu Zixuan instantly doubled over in laughter, rolling on the bed...

Xiaoxiao watched her with a puzzled frown, wondering why she was so happy?

As Mu Zixuan laughed, she lay on her bed, shaking her head at Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, how can you be so silly! The problem lies with you and you don’t even realize it..."

"How does it lie with me?" she asked, confused.

"Think about it... When Yaoyao took the initiative to call you and told you to go home first, what did you say to him?"

Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, "I said, sure..."

"Did you tell him you were going to celebrate Zhuo Shaoqing’s birthday?"

"No..."

"There you have it... You clearly agreed to come home right after work, but when he returned, not only were you not at home, you stayed out until the wee hours of the night before coming back. Of course, he was angry!" Mu Zixuan looked at her with a ’look how silly you are’ expression...

Upon hearing her words, Na Xiaoxiao’s clear eyes suddenly brimmed with excited surprise. Was that it?

Could it be that he had been ignoring her all this time because she had not gone home as he wanted that night, and instead played outside until one o’clock in the morning, which made him angry?

However, she always felt that something wasn’t quite right, because his indifference towards her was truly unprecedented...

"Could it be that?" She looked at Shanshan, somewhat dejected.

"Logically, that should be the case. Otherwise, what other reason could there be?" Mu Zixuan looked at her, puzzled.

"It seems not..." Apart from that reason, there really wasn’t any other more fitting one.

"Xiaoxiao... then this time you need to take the initiative..." Mu Zixuan suddenly looked at her with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Na Xiaoxiao was suspicious, "What do you mean?"

"Since you made him upset, it’s definitely up to you to coax him..." Mu Zixuan fluttered her long eyelashes at her.

"Coax... coax him?" Na Xiaoxiao was shocked.

"Mm-hmm, yeah... Don’t be fooled by his cold demeanor, sometimes he needs to be coaxed too~" This was the conclusion she had reached from observing her mom and dad.

Na Xiaoxiao’s eyes were full of conflict. Coax? She really couldn’t imagine what it would be like to see Mu Zisu being coaxed by someone. My goodness... just thinking about it made her break out in a cold sweat...

"Anyway, you have to make nice with him first; otherwise, given his temperament, if you ignore him, he will ignore you..." Mu Zixuan said, pursing her lips.

Na Xiaoxiao felt this was a very stressful undertaking...

But making nice with him was certainly much better than trying to coax him...

After Mu Zixuan’s guidance, Na Xiaoxiao walked nervously upstairs; when she reached the staircase, she deliberately looked towards the study.

The door was closed, and she didn’t know if Mu Zisu was inside. Looking at the time, it was past nine o’clock. He should be in the study, right...

She mustered the courage to tiptoe over, pressed her ear against the crack of the door to listen, but heard not a sound. She frowned, questioning if he might not be in the study.

After standing there a while longer, she raised her hand and knocked softly twice—no response...

Hearing no sound from inside, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart. Then he was probably in the bedroom...

Being in the bedroom was a different matter; she didn’t have the nerve to knock on his bedroom door.

Back in her own bedroom, she lay on the bed and started to daydream. It was the weekend tomorrow; she didn’t have to go to the company. If he was at home, she could find an opportunity to really curry favor with him.

But what if he wasn’t at home tomorrow?

She tossed and turned, thinking it over and over, until she couldn’t resist picking up her cell phone. She paused for a moment, then pulled up Mu Zisu’s private number.

Then she quickly typed a few words—

[Mr. Mu, have you rested?]

No, that won’t do, she wasn’t at the company now, and it wasn’t about work to call him, so better not to call him Mr. Mu...

Then she quickly deleted the words "Mr. Mu," but after deleting them, she didn’t know what was appropriate to call him...

After thinking for a long time, she finally bit the bullet and simply sent the four characters "Have you rested?"

Looking at the message marked as sent, her heart finally started thumping wildly.

Would he reply?

What if he had already gone to rest and didn’t see it?

Na Xiaoxiao sprang up from the bed in one swift motion, her eyes unblinkingly fixed on the phone screen, her heart so nervous it felt like it would leap out of her chest at any moment...

Trying to get on the good side of the aloof big BOSS was indeed incredibly stressful...
