Chapter 668: Chapter 670: Lin Fei Sends Flowers, Cash on Delivery (Part 2)

“Vice Minister Lin didn’t pay?! Xue’er, you must have misheard?!”

“Um. Sorry, your company’s Vice Minister Lin indeed did not pay. He chose cash on delivery. Look, this money—”

“Wait a minute!”

Staring with sharp eyes, she coldly interrupted the young man, apparently a courier, who was holding a large bouquet of roses selected by Lin Fei for Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO.

Standing at the reception desk with Meng Xue’er, this innocent and pure girl down to her bones, the receptionist leaned close to Meng Xue’er and whispered, “Xue’er, the more I think about it, the more something seems off. Maybe we should call the CEO’s secretariat and have someone come down.”

“No, no way. Lin, Brother Lin said, he asked me, asked me to take the flowers to President Mu.”

“Xue’er, are you silly?! Vice Minister Lin suddenly buying flowers for President Mu and choosing cash on delivery? There’s definitely a trick here; we’d better not get involved.”

“No! Since, since Brother Lin said, asked me, asked me to deliver the flowers to President Mu. And, and to tell President Mu, to deduct the cost of the flowers from his, from his salary. Then I must, I must help, help Brother Lin fulfill this.”

For Meng Xue’er, this innocent and pure girl to the core, Lin Fei’s words, in some ways, were no less than an imperial edict.

Thus, no matter how much the receptionist, who was also on duty with her at the front desk, tried to persuade her, nothing could change Meng Xue’er’s determination to personally deliver the flowers to Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, as instructed by Lin Fei.

“You, you wait here, wait for a while. I’ll take the flowers to, to President Mu. See, see what President Mu says.” She took the roses from the hands of the young man dressed as a courier and said a word to him. Then Meng Xue’er, this innocent and pure girl, holding the 99 unpaid roses chosen by Lin Fei for Mu Shanshan, casually stepped into the elevator.

“I hope this won’t take too long, right? I have more flowers to deliver for other people.”

Seeing Meng Xue’er holding the flowers and entering the elevator, the young man dressed as a courier couldn’t help but voice his slight worry.

He clearly wasn’t worried about the money for the 99 roses. After all, the reputation of Mu Group was widely known among adults in Zhonghai.

“It won’t take too long, don’t worry.”

She casually responded to the flower delivering, courier-dressed young man. The receptionist on duty with Meng Xue’er remembered Lin Fei’s usual frivolous behavior at the company and couldn’t help but start secretly worrying for Meng Xue’er.

…

Moongaze Building, twenty-sixth floor.

Outside the CEO’s office of Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO.

Holding the 99 roses that she had brought up from the lobby in the elevator, Meng Xue’er took a deep breath outside the CEO’s office, clenched her fists tightly, and psyched herself up.

Then, the girl reached out to knock on the door.

The door opened, opened by Shen Xuan, famously known as Mu Shanshan’s chief secretary.

“Xue’er, are you here to deliver flowers to President Mu?”

Shen Xuan, who had taken special notice of Meng Xue’er due to Lin Fei’s extra affection for this pure girl, saw Meng Xue’er holding a large bouquet of roses, standing somewhat nervously outside the door.

Shen Xuan, the chief secretary for Mu Shanshan, couldn’t help but be surprised.

“No, it wasn’t me. It was, it was—”

“Xue’er, haven’t they told you already?! Regardless of who wants to send flowers to President Mu, President Mu never accepts them. Whoever brings them should just take them away. Bringing the flowers up like this will only make President Mu unhappy. You better leave.”

“No, I can’t. I, I must, give the flowers, give the flowers to President Mu.”

“Xue’er, why won’t you listen!”

Considering well-known affection of Lin Fei for Meng Xue’er, this innocent and pure girl to her very core, Shen Xuan would have already lost her temper if not for that.

After all, being the number one secretary to the icy CEO Mu Shanshan. It was not just Meng Xue’er, this mere receptionist. Even some department managers, if Shen Xuan were displeased, she would rebuke them directly.

“Shen Xuan, what’s the matter?”

Hearing the icy CEO Mu Shanshan’s inquiry, Shen Xuan, who originally thought about driving the girl away for her own good due to Meng Xue’er’s innocence and purity,

gave Meng Xue’er a helpless glance, slightly displeased and warily muttered, “Now even if you want to leave, you can’t. Xue’er, you—you’re on your own.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Xuan, the CEO’s top secretary, promptly moved aside, allowing Meng Xue’er, this girl pure to the bone,

into the CEO’s office.

“President Mu, President Mu. I, I—it was, it was Lin, Brother Lin. He asked, asked me to bring, bring you the flowers.”

Upon entering the CEO’s office, Meng Xue’er, who became even more restrained and nervous due to the other secretarial assistants apart from Shen Xuan, almost forced herself to walk up to the icy CEO Mu Shanshan, handing the 99 roses she held in her arms to her.

“Lin Fei, he asked you to bring it to me?!”

“Yes, yes.”

Originally, Mu Shanshan, her eyebrows knitting slightly at Meng Xue’er with the roses, upon Meng Xue’er’s confirmation that the roses were from Lin Fei, her cheap husband, her eyebrows relaxed and she completely disregarded her assistants’ astonishment in the office, reaching out her delicate hand to take the 99 roses from Meng Xue’er.

“Did he come to the office today?” As she took the 99 roses from Meng Xue’er, the icy CEO casually asked Meng Xue’er.

“No, he didn’t. Lin, Brother Lin, didn’t, didn’t come to the office today.”

“Did he ask you to buy the flowers on your way?”

“No, it wasn’t like that. It was Lin Brother who, on his own, chose, chose them at the flower shop.”

Hearing this from Meng Xue’er, that Lin Fei had personally gone to the flower shop to select the roses for her,

Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, although still seemingly unemotional, felt an unconscious warmth stirring within her.

However, when Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, held out her snowy soft hand that took out the card Lin Fei, her cheap husband, had placed among the roses and reviewed the contents written on the card,

the faint warmth induced by Lin Fei choosing the flowers personally for her instantly turned icy.

“This bunch of flowers, he didn’t pay for them?!”
