Chapter 556: Chapter 0558 My Gift

Chu Ge was taken aback, "Are you saying that there are other conglomerates suppressing Jinxiu?"

He slightly squinted his eyes. Before he left, he had entrusted the Ouyang family and the Sima family to take good care of Jinxiu, but now there were groups daring to make a move against Jinxiu...

Chu Ge didn’t mean to blame the Ouyang family and the Sima family; he just felt that someone dared to blatantly disregard these two major families, indicating that this person must have a strong background.

Mu Bingtong nodded her head, letting out a light sigh, "It’s not exactly suppression, it’s just that they’ve snatched many of our Jinxiu’s orders and slandered us everywhere."

Although Mu Bingtong didn’t specify how they were slandered, Chu Ge guessed immediately.

Because there had been rumors saying that a woman who could support such a large conglomerate must have a row of men behind her, watching out for what relationship she has with these men, which is self-explanatory for adults.

Initially, Chu Ge didn’t care about these rumors because he knew Mu Bingtong and knew that she was not such a person.

Slandering Jinxiu was nothing more than exaggerating similar words and spreading them further.

"Who is it?" Chu Ge’s voice gradually grew colder.

Mu Bingtong shook her head, "This person has a very powerful background, he has relatives in Jing City, and is even one of the Six Great Families of Jing City; we can’t afford to offend them."

It was precisely because they couldn’t afford to offend them that she had been working overtime lately, trying to recuperate some of the losses.

But Chu Ge didn’t see it that way, "Relationships in Jing City?"

Hmm, no wonder they don’t regard the Ouyang family and the Sima family.

Mu Bingtong didn’t want to continue discussing company matters anymore; Chu Ge had finally returned, and she didn’t want to waste the precious time on such matters.

After arranging the documents neatly, Mu Bingtong stood up and said to Chu Ge, "Let’s go."

Chu Ge glanced at the time, it was indeed getting late, and nodded his head.

The two left the company, Chu Ge had driven himself, so Mu Bingtong didn’t go to the underground parking but directly got into Chu Ge’s car to head home.

Inside the car, Chu Ge was driving while Mu Bingtong sat in the passenger’s seat, rubbing her forehead as she asked, "Chu Ge, what exactly have you been busy with?"

The sudden question briefly stunned Chu Ge; he glanced sidelong at Mu Bingtong and responded, "Do you really want to know?"

Mu Bingtong looked deeply at him, then shook her head, "Not particularly."

She just felt that this time Chu Ge had been away too long, she felt she knew nothing about him, didn’t understand him at all.

This feeling made her start to feel anxious; she wanted to understand him, she wanted to delve deeper into understanding him.

However, just now, when she saw Chu Ge’s handsome face, her thoughts changed.

Chu Ge was like an eagle soaring in the sky, his vision, his life, would definitely not revolve around being busy for a company like hers.

Mu Bingtong didn’t know why she had such thoughts, but that was what she believed.

Chu Ge smiled, not continuing the conversation, as he too didn’t know how to explain.

The more one knows, the more complicated life becomes, and danger increases.

After a while, Chu Ge took out a gift he had prepared for Mu Bingtong from his pocket and handed it over to her, "Here, a gift I bought for you."

Mu Bingtong was startled, somewhat surprised as she accepted it and opened the box. Inside was a jade pendant shaped like a rabbit, small and exquisitely crafted, especially pleasing.

Mu Bingtong liked it at first glance, picking up the Jade Rabbit, the cool sensation spreading across her fingertips, its quality was very good.

Mu Bingtong, often mingling in upper-class society, inevitably needed some jewelry, so she was somewhat knowledgeable about it.

The moment she touched the jade, she felt it was unusual, and smiled at Chu Ge, "This Jade Pendant must be quite expensive, right?"

Chu Ge was somewhat speechless and chuckled, "Aren’t you supposed to show some reaction at this moment?"

The first thing she asks is about the price of the Jade Pendant?

Chu Ge didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

Mu Bingtong playfully stuck her tongue out and quickly leaned in to give him a kiss on the cheek while Chu Ge wasn’t looking.

Fortunately, it was night and the light was too dim to clearly see the shy expression on Mu Bingtong’s face.

If Chu Ge looked closely, he would notice that her cheeks were flushed.

Chu Ge did not expect Mu Bingtong to kiss him first, he felt ticklish inside, his lips curving into a smile, and with a teasing tone he said: "Is this your way of returning the favor? Hmm, not bad, I like it."

"...Annoying!" Mu Bingtong had shed her usual aloofness, exuding the charm of a demure woman.

She glared at Chu Ge reproachfully, then wore the Jade Rabbit around her neck.

The next day, Chu Ge’s morning routine of cultivation remained unchanged. When he returned from exercising, Mu Bingtong had already gotten up and prepared breakfast.

"You’re back, I’ve made breakfast, come wash up and eat."

Mu Bingtong hadn’t removed her apron yet, her long hair casually tied up, with a few strands softly framing her face, inadvertently exuding a hint of sexiness.

Chu Ge looked enchanted, standing at the doorway, unmoved.

Mu Bingtong, feeling somewhat embarrassed under his gaze, coincidentally Shen Yaoyao yawned while walking down from upstairs, noticing Chu Ge and Mu Bingtong standing weirdly at the dining room entrance.

"What are you guys doing?" Shen Yaoyao curiously asked.

Mu Bingtong coughed lightly and smiled, "Nothing really, hurry and wash your hands to eat."

Shen Yaoyao oh-ed and noticed Mu Bingtong’s shy expression, instantly realizing Chu Ge must have done something to Mu Bingtong early in the morning.

Her resentful gaze fixated on Chu Ge, leaving him utterly confused.

Shen Yaoyao washed her hands and sat down at the dining table, casually picking up a piece of bread to eat.

While eating, she looked up at Mu Bingtong, immediately noticing the Jade Rabbit on her neck.

Mu Bingtong’s jewelry was familiar to her, sometimes she would even borrow to wear, but she had never seen this Jade Rabbit before.

Shen Yaoyao curiously inquired, "Sister Bingtong, where did you buy this Jade Rabbit? It’s really pretty."

Mu Bingtong’s cheeks reddened, her lips curving slightly, radiating happiness, "I didn’t buy this Jade Rabbit."

It wasn’t bought by Sister Bingtong?

Shen Yaoyao paused, her eyes landing on Chu Ge who just changed his clothes and came out, if it wasn’t bought by Bingtong, then it must have been Chu Ge?

He bought a gift only for Sister Bingtong and not for her!

Immediately, Shen Yaoyao felt displeased, as soon as Chu Ge sat down, she couldn’t help but stretch her hand towards him, demanding, "Where’s my gift?"

Chu Ge was startled, what gift?
