Chapter 171 - 171 171 Chairman Xue's View on Love

171: Chapter 171: Chairman Xue’s View on Love 171: Chapter 171: Chairman Xue’s View on Love “Xue’er, why did you think to call me early in the morning?

You don’t want me to come back and join you for breakfast, do you?” Lin Fei, who was woken up by the ringing of his phone, had initially intended not to answer the call.

However, when he saw the caller ID was Meng Xue’er, that pure and innocent girl, he pushed himself to answer the phone.

Lin Fei couldn’t be blamed for lingering in bed, as it was due to Xue Mei’s body being too delicate and tender, and her face too coldly charming, truly making him unable to stop.

Last night, the two of them had indeed not spared each other until three or four in the morning before Lin Fei finally fell into a deep sleep.

As for Xue Mei, the woman was still lying in Lin Fei’s arms, showing no signs of movement.

“Lin, Brother Lin, haven’t you had breakfast yet?

I, I’ll go make it for you right now.”

Hearing Meng Xue’er’s gentle and soft tone on the phone, Lin Fei couldn’t help but chuckle, and the sleepiness nearly left him completely, “There’s no need for breakfast, your Brother Lin isn’t hungry right now.

I just wanted to hear what Xue’er was looking for me for; don’t tell me you want me to come back and join you in bed?”

“No, it’s not that.

It’s, it’s because I have an interview at Brother Lin’s company today, I, I was thinking—”

“An interview?

What interview?”

“It’s just, it’s—”

“I remember now, so Xue’er, you’re calling me because of this.

No worries, just come on over, I, your Brother Lin, guarantee you’ll pass the company’s interview.” After a brief moment of thought, Lin Fei recalled he had previously helped Meng Xue’er by going through the back door with Mu Shanshan.

Once he understood this, he instantly assured Meng Xue’er confidently.

In regards to Meng Xue’er, a girl pure to the bone, Lin Fei obviously had a genuine fondness.

Even without Old Wang’s relationship, Lin Fei wouldn’t have minded giving the girl a helping hand.

To be honest, Lin Fei truly didn’t feel at ease about having Meng Xue’er, such an innocent and simple girl, apply for positions at other companies.

“Lin, Brother Lin.

I, I’m already at the company.”

“That fast?!” Lin Fei was taken aback; he who had just woken up hadn’t realized it was nearly ten o’clock.

However, that didn’t hinder his protective feelings toward Meng Xue’er.

After reassuring Meng Xue’er and boosting her morale a little, Lin Fei hung up the phone and, after a thought, decided to call his CEO wife.

The phone rang several times before Mu Shanshan answered.

“What’s the matter?!”

“There is a matter, a big one!”

“Speak.”

“Wife, good morning.”

…

“You have thirty seconds to finish what you want to say,” Mu Shanshan clearly wasn’t moved by Lin Fei’s belated good morning.

Lin Fei knew this well and decided not to continue quibbling with his CEO wife, getting straight to the point, “Wife, is our company recruiting today?”

“What’s that to you?”

“Of course, it’s related!

The company’s affairs are your affairs, we’re one family; your matters are my matters.

I—”

“One family, and you can’t even make a call when you don’t come home at night?!” Chairman Mu’s words were cold, chilling to the core.

“Wife—”

“You have ten seconds left!”

“I mentioned Meng Xue’er to you last time, you remember her, right?

She’s already at our company.

Wife, about the agreement we made, you can’t go back on your word, you must let her pass the interview, and it would be best if you arrange her to be by my side, to give me—”

“Ngn—Lin Fei, who are you calling?”

Lin Fei’s original intent was to grasp the last ten seconds of time, earnestly trying to persuade his CEO wife to arrange for Meng Xue’er, that pure and translucent girl, to become his secretary.

However, it was clear that this wish of his was doomed to remain unfulfilled.

Because Xue Mei had woken up!

Xue Mei had not only woken up, but she also spoke!

Xue Mei’s voice wasn’t very loud, languid and lazy, but it was enough to make Mu Shanshan on the other end of Lin Fei’s phone hear everything clearly.

Snap!

Before the thirty seconds were up, Mu Shanshan on the other end of the phone hung up abruptly.

A night unreturned, and now a woman’s voice coming from the phone—at even a bare minimum of emotional experience, Mu Shanshan could guess what her cheap husband had been up to behind her back.

Mu Shanshan had merely hung up Lin Fei’s phone call, and this was already indicative of good manners for a woman.

If it were another wife, she probably would have already unleashed a torrent of curses.

Of course, this did not mean that Mu Shanshan lacked any negative emotions about Lin Fei’s suspected infidelity.

If it had been when they had just gotten married, Mu Shanshan would definitely not have intervened in Lin Fei’s private life, as her only feelings toward Lin Fei at that time were disgust and rejection.

However, some time had passed since Lin Fei moved into the Purple Garden Pavilion villa.

The relationship between them, or rather the marital relationship, had seen some improvement.

Regarding Lin Fei, her cheap husband, Mu Shanshan clearly had begun to care somewhat.

Under these circumstances, if Mu Shanshan could remain indifferent to Lin Fei’s philandering, then she wouldn’t be a woman.

“You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”

Looking at Xue Mei, who was sprawled out in his arms, languid and lazy, with her charming eyes blinking at him, Lin Fei was truly at a loss for anger.

Had it not been for the fact that Xue Mei, this woman, had been worn out by him all night and was very frail, Lin Fei’s hand would have probably already left its mark on the woman’s perky and shapely posterior.

“Don’t you feel that lying on my bed, yet talking on the phone with another woman, is a great disrespect to me?”

Having been toyed with all night, Xue Mei could hardly muster any strength.

However, this did not impede her from defending her rights as the mistress of the room.

As the Chairwoman of Thorny Rose, Xue Mei had her own pride.

What kind of past Lin Fei had, or what future he might have, did not concern her.

What mattered to her was Lin Fei in the present, as well as the moments she spent alone with him.

She did not covet being the only one for Lin Fei, but when she was alone with him, she needed to be the only existence in Lin Fei’s eyes and heart.

That was the love philosophy of Chairwoman Xue Mei!

Seemingly unreasonable, yet fitting.

“Do you know that by doing this, you’re causing me a lot of trouble?”

Lin Fei was no fool; he could somewhat perceive the special emotions that were showing in Xue Mei’s sultry eyes.

At that moment, the anger that had surged in Lin Fei’s heart involuntarily dissipated quite a bit.

Feeling Lin Fei’s emotions relax, “Then, should I call your wife and explain?” As she spoke, Xue Mei actually reached for Lin Fei’s phone.

Explain my ass!

This kind of situation could only worsen the more you try to clarify it!

The metaphorical veins on Lin Fei’s forehead were practically dropping with a smack, smack, smack!

If Xue Mei truly did call Mu Shanshan, then Lin Fei could only expect an even worse fate!

This woman was obviously setting him up for a deadly trap.
