Chapter 466 - 466 466 The Goddess Mu Who Simply Wants to Beat Up Her Husband

466: Chapter 466: The Goddess Mu Who Simply Wants to Beat Up Her Husband 466: Chapter 466: The Goddess Mu Who Simply Wants to Beat Up Her Husband At noon, Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan were at the Purple Garden Pavilion villa.

The living room on the first floor.

The atmosphere was slightly tense.

Of course, this feeling was only shared by the guests, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian.

At most, it could include Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO herself.

Lin Fei didn’t feel this way at all; in his own house, he didn’t think the atmosphere could be tense.

In fact, ever since Lin Fei returned to Zhonghai, he had gradually adopted a lazy and shameless temperament.

Wherever he was, there would mostly be laughter, flirting, and embarrassment.

Such a tense atmosphere was mostly something Shen Xuan and Cao Zian imposed on themselves.

Of course, this also had a lot to do with Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, gradually regaining her corporate demeanor that she had at the company.

“So, you’re saying that you had already called me before.

But after my phone connected once, it was turned off?!”

From Shen Xuan, her personal secretary, and Cao Zian, the head of the Security Department, Mu Shanshan learned about the slight chaos at the company due to her absence, as well as the main reason why these two had personally come to her home to find her.

Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, seemed to be asking Shen Xuan and Cao Zian.

In reality, her pretty and cold eyes had already secretly glared at Lin Fei countless times.

If it wasn’t for the presence of the two outsiders, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, Mu Shanshan would probably have already given Lin Fei, her cheap husband, a “cold, stern stare.”

Because she controlled such a large Mu Group, Mu Shanshan’s phone was essentially on 24 hours a day.

Especially from Monday to Friday during working hours.

Due to work needs, Mu Shanshan’s phone was never turned off.

Yet, when Shen Xuan and others mentioned that they couldn’t reach her phone, how could Mu Shanshan not think that this was mostly related to Lin Fei, her cheap husband, who intended to hold her in bed for a long time and couldn’t get away?

“Your phone was indeed turned off by me.

Although I did it so you could rest better, I admit I was wrong.

If you want to scold me, go ahead, I won’t blame you,” Lin Fei said, sensing the occasional cold stare from Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, and the implication in her words, admitting his “fault” rather brazenly to his CEO wife.

“Hmph!”

Although Lin Fei had proactively admitted his “fault,” Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, was obviously still very dissatisfied.

According to Lin Fei, turning off her phone was for her to rest better.

Although Mu Shanshan knew well that Lin Fei didn’t really do it for her rest, but rather to take advantage of her!

However, under the circumstances, facing her cheap husband who had “admitted his fault” to her, and in front of her subordinates, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian,

if she continued to harp on this matter and fiercely scold Lin Fei, it would instead seem that she, as a wife, was somewhat petty.

So, even though Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, was very dissatisfied with her cheap husband Lin Fei, for turning off her phone,

she could only suppress her anger and wait to settle accounts with her cheap husband Lin Fei later.

“I’m clear about the company matters now.

After you two leave, remember to make a phone call and explain my situation here to Minister Ling and others.

Later, I’ll also rush to the company,” Mu Shanshan said, pinching Lin Fei’s thigh secretly to express her dissatisfaction with him, too lazy to bother with Lin Fei anymore, she turned her head and instructed Shen Xuan and Cao Zian.

With Mu Shanshan’s orders and her mention that she would head to the company later, it was clear both Shen Xuan and Cao Zian breathed a sigh of relief.

But, relieved as they were, the appropriate concern of a subordinate for their leader was clearly indispensable.

Whether it was Cao Zian, the old hand, or Shen Xuan, Mu Shanshan’s personal secretary, they obviously wouldn’t be oblivious to the workplace etiquette of caring for their leader’s health.

“The company matters are indeed important.

However, the most important thing is for Boss Mu to take care of her health.

Only with Boss Mu healthy can our company develop for the long term.

In our opinion, it would be better for Boss Mu to rest thoroughly before heading back to the company,” they advised.

“Yeah, wife.

The company matters can wait.

Why don’t you rest for the afternoon?

I happen to be free this afternoon, so let your husband take care of you,” Lin Fei interjected, naturally trying his best to keep Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, at home.

“There’s no need, I’ve rested enough!” Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, resolutely opposed as soon as Lin Fei finished speaking.

Not to mention that she wasn’t even feverish to begin with.

Even if she were, she would never feel at ease letting Lin Fei, her cheap husband, take care of her.

Was that taking care?

Clearly, it was just a chance for him to take advantage of her!

“If there’s nothing else, we’ll not disturb Boss Mu’s rest any further,” seeing their purpose for visiting had been achieved, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, who had been uneasy since entering the villa, exchanged discreet glances and then started to rise, ready to take their leave.

Seeing Shen Xuan and Cao Zian getting up, Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, casually mentioned as she got up to see them out, “Due to certain reasons, I’m not ready to make my relationship with Lin Fei public for the time being.

So—”

“Mr.

Mu, rest assured.

Today, when we came to your house, we only saw you alone.”

For Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO of Mu Group, such casually delivered parting words were certainly not lost on Cao Zian or Shen Xuan.

In fact, even without Mu Shanshan’s reminder, once they returned to the company, neither of them would say a word too many about the hidden marital relationship between the icy CEO and Lin Fei.

If they lacked the ability to read between the lines and make deductions, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian would certainly not be in their current positions.

As for when Lin Fei married the icy CEO Mu Shanshan, and why they chose to keep their marriage secret—well, that was clearly beyond Shen Xuan and Cao Zian’s concern.

Eager to continue their careers at Mu Group, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian obviously wouldn’t do something as suicidal as gossiping about the CEO’s private life.

Just as the icy CEO Mu Shanshan had sent Shen Xuan and Cao Zian off with her parting words and was about to see them out,

Lin Fei invited them with an uncharacteristic warmth, “Since you’re already here, and it happens to be noon, why not stay for a simple meal?

I’m not afraid to tell you that Shanshan is an excellent cook.

It would be your loss not to try her food.”

As soon as Lin Fei spoke, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian were stupefied.

Meanwhile, Mu Shanshan’s icy gaze turned incredibly chilling, as if she was ready to erupt.

At that moment, Mu Shanshan truly felt like she could bite this cheap husband of hers to death.

Cook?!

That joke was a bit too much!

Considering herself, Mu Shanshan, naturally beautiful and elegantly dignified, let alone holding the rank of CEO of Mu Group and being famed as the business goddess of Zhonghai city,

How could she be associated with cooking, something damaging to the skin and a waste of time!

From the moment she was born, it was destined that she wouldn’t need to learn or cook for anyone!

And now, he dared to suggest that she cook for Shen Xuan and Cao Zian?!

That’s quite a thought, Lin Fei!

This was undoubtedly setting her up for embarrassment!

Endurable things have their limits, and this CEO could no longer bear it.

“Let’s forget it for today.

I still need to tidy up and hurry to the company as soon as possible.

Next time, if there’s a chance, I’ll consider inviting you over for a meal.”

After all, as a CEO accustomed to the ups and downs of the business world, and despite wishing she could bite this cheap husband Lin Fei to death immediately, Mu Shanshan did not forget to first escort the two outsiders, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, out.

“Don’t be that way, wife.

Minister Cao and Secretary Shen rarely visit.

I think it’s better to strike while the iron is hot—it’s today.

We still have some food in the fridge, so just show them a little of what you can do, yeah?”

Unable to bear sending Shen Xuan and Cao Zian away just like that and leaving himself alone with Mu Shanshan, who was ready to erupt for his lateness to work,

Lin Fei simply wanted to keep Shen Xuan and Cao Zian for lunch, so afterwards, they could all go to the office together.

This way, he wouldn’t have to endure the wrath of his CEO wife, Mu Shanshan.

As for the cooking, Lin Fei, who knew full well his CEO wife had never set foot in the kitchen, merely suggested she cook for Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, just to save face for her—nothing more.

The actual cooking, of course, would be done by Lin Fei himself.

Unfortunately, Lin Fei’s intentions were not known to the icy CEO Mu Shanshan.

So many misunderstandings in the world stem from poor communication.

Just like the current situation between Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan, due to the lack of communication.

One suspected the other wanted them to make a fool of themselves, while the other assumed the visitor wanted to get rid of outsiders in order to release their anger on them.

Between them, the tension was gradually growing thicker.

Fortunately, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, with their keen senses, picked up on the abnormal atmosphere between the two.

Ignoring Lin Fei’s desperate retention efforts, they suppressed their curiosity about tasting Mu Shanshan’s cooking skills and fled as if escaping, excusing themselves and leaving.

…

“Lin Fei, come here for a moment.”

Having sent off two of her subordinates, Shen Xuan and Cao Zian, Mu Shanshan turned back into the living room and casually picked up a throw pillow from the sofa, beckoning Lin Fei.

“What for?!”

“Nothing much, just a pure desire to smack you, that’s all.”

With that said, the CEO Mu Shanshan’s hand holding the throw pillow violently launched it at Lin Fei…
