Chapter 494: Chapter 492 Xiaoxiao is Zisu’s Girlfriend_1
Mu Zisu’s gaze deepened imperceptibly, and the director of Zhuo Family was also friends with his father and uncles--
Who else could it be but Zhuo Rongxuan, Zhuo Shaoqing’s father?
He extended his hand, cold yet polite, "Director Zhuo, I’ve long admired your reputation..."
Zhuo Rongxuan chuckled, stood up, and extended his hand as well, "You’ve been abroad all this time, so this is actually our first meeting..."
A faint smile tugged at the corner of Mu Zisu’s mouth--
"I’ll be staying in C City for the long term..."
"Good, that’s good..."
After Zhuo Rongxuan sat down, he said to Mu Feng with a somewhat frustrated tone, "Seeing all your sons around you, and then my unfilial son, always abroad, has truly infuriated me!"
Na Xiaoxiao took a seat next to Kang Xiaolan, and Mu Zisu was right beside Xiaoxiao. Ji Yunqing was busy attending to other guests, so the table engaged in casual conversation.
When Kang Xiaolan heard Zhuo Rongxuan’s words, she couldn’t help raising an eyebrow, "Your son is doing quite well for himself... I think racing is pretty cool, too. It’s thrilling and cool..."
Zhuo Rongxuan’s face suddenly darkened. Was racing a fun thing? A single mishap could lead to injuries, and in a serious case, even death!
That was exactly his worry!
Otherwise, why would he and his son have had several falling outs over it!
After hearing Kang Xiaolan’s words, Na Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and widened her eyes--
When she first saw this Director Zhuo, she felt he looked familiar, yet she was certain she’d never met him. It was only after listening to their discussion about racing that she realized he was Zhuo Shaoqing’s father...
Upon hearing their discussion about Zhuo Shaoqing, Mu Zisu couldn’t help but flick a glance toward Na Xiaoxiao beside him and, indeed, saw her look of surprise and understanding.
His gaze involuntarily darkened, and a faint irritation rose in his heart--
"Didn’t you say a while ago that he was back on vacation? Has he left yet?" Mu Feng asked Zhuo Rongxuan with a smile, who was clearly very upset.
"Not yet. He’ll leave in a few days..." As soon as he thought of his son going on another long journey, Zhuo Rongxuan’s stomach started to spasm.
"So why didn’t you bring him along today..."
"He came... but vanished as soon as he arrived. He’ll probably show up later..." Zhuo Rongxuan gritted his teeth with irritation.
Upon hearing Zhuo Rongxuan’s words, Mu Zisu’s gaze darkened again...
No sooner had the voice faded than a pleasant voice came from behind him.
"Dad..."
Speaking of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives--
Xiaoxiao’s body tensed. She hadn’t expected to encounter Zhuo Shaoqing under these circumstances, especially after the incident that night, which was quite awkward for her. In between, Zhuo Shaoqing had called her twice, although it was just small talk and he didn’t mention that night, but now the sudden meeting made her somewhat uncomfortable.
"Wow, Young Master Zhuo is indeed handsome..." Kang Xiaolan joked upon seeing Zhuo Shaoqing.
It wasn’t until Zhuo Shaoqing approached that he noticed Mu Zisu and Na Xiaoxiao, whom he hadn’t seen for many days, at the table...
His eyes brightened at the sight of Xiaoxiao, and he quickened his pace--
"Xiaoxiao..." Before he reached the table, he was already calling out Na Xiaoxiao’s name familiarly.
Na Xiaoxiao looked up awkwardly and gave him a smile...
Several people nearby were surprised, not understanding how this long-absent Young Master Zhuo knew Young Master Mu’s girlfriend?
Could there be some kind of insider story here?
Zhuo Shaoqing arrived at the table with flair, and Zhuo Rongxuan first scolded him as a troublemaker before beginning to introduce him.
After introducing Mu Feng and Kang Xiaolan, Zhuo Shaoqing looked at Mu Zisu and Na Xiaoxiao and said, "I know these two..."
"You all know each other?" Zhuo Rongxuan was surprised.
"Hmm, I know them..." Zhuo Shaoqing couldn’t help but look at his father, "When I came back, didn’t I accidentally bump into someone? Look, it’s Xiaoxiao..."
Zhuo Rongxuan then nodded in realization.
Kang Xiaolan glanced at Zhuo Shaoqing, then at Na Xiaoxiao, and finally let her gaze fall on the nearby Mu Zisu. If she wasn’t mistaken, Yaoyao’s face didn’t seem to look very good, did it?
As clever as she was, she smelled something fishy in an instant.
"Hehe, since everyone knows each other, let’s not stand on ceremony and take our seats quickly..." Kang Xiaolan said with a smile, looking at Zhuo Shaoqing.
Zhuo Shaoqing looked at the seating arrangements. He originally wanted to sit next to Na Xiaoxiao, but since she was flanked by Kang Xiaolan on one side and Mu Zisu on the other, he had no choice but to sit next to his own father, diagonally opposite Na Xiaoxiao and directly opposite Mu Zisu.
After Zhuo Shaoqing was seated, he looked at Na Xiaoxiao, who was bowing her head across the table, "Xiaoxiao... I called you the night before last, and you didn’t say you were coming to this banquet, did you?"
When Zhuo Shaoqing called Na Xiaoxiao the night before, he had specifically mentioned that he would be attending a banquet that night, although he didn’t say it was Ji Yunqing’s birthday banquet hosted by Mu Group. He thought she would come along with Mu Zisu, but unexpectedly, she had said she had no banquet to attend. Yet, to his surprise, she appeared here tonight.
Mu Zisu’s hand, holding the teacup, couldn’t help but tighten. The night before last?
Good, very good...
Na Xiaoxiao, after hearing what Zhuo Shaoqing said, smiled at him a bit guiltily, "It was a last-minute decision..."
Her guilt wasn’t because of Zhuo Shaoqing, but because of Mu Zisu.
Because she remembered what he had told her, not to interact with any men, especially Zhuo Shaoqing...
A few days ago, things between the two of them were neither warm nor fiery. After returning to the Mu Family, they each went back to their own rooms.
When Zhuo Shaoqing called her that night, she was determined not to answer, but Zhuo Shaoqing was persistent, calling again and again, so she was conflicted and eventually picked up.
Actually, they didn’t talk about much, just chit-chat. When Zhuo Shaoqing asked if she was attending any banquet tonight, she shook her head without hesitation.
Because coming here tonight, she only found out about it when she finished work, around 5 o’clock.
She never expected to encounter Zhuo Shaoqing here.
After hearing Na Xiaoxiao’s response, Zhuo Shaoqing’s peach blossom eyes narrowed, "Then you..." He originally wanted to ask if she was free tomorrow.
But who would have known, his own father suddenly kicked him hard under the table!
His words halted abruptly, and he looked puzzledly at his father with furrowed brows.
Why would he kick him for no reason?
And it really hurt!
"You little rascal! Xiaoxiao is Zisu’s girlfriend, don’t you lose any manners!"
Zhuo Rongxuan’s face turned stern, this brat was getting worse and worse! Chatting warmly with someone else’s girlfriend right in front of Mu Zisu!
Zhuo Shaoqing’s facial expression suddenly froze, girlfriend?
Na Xiaoxiao is Mu Zisu’s girlfriend?
This news was like a bolt of lightning exploding in his head, leaving him shockingly out of composure in front of everyone at the table, so rigid that he couldn’t snap back to reality!
