Chapter 700: Chapter 702 What Do You Think Our Penny Is?

As noon approached,

the Mu Group, located in the Moongaze Building.

The café across the street.

After leaving Shen Peini’s stunning seaside villa, Lin Fei received a scolding call from Shen Fanghua, the executive director of Mu Group. Nearly flying, he rushed to the café.

Although Lin Fei really didn’t want to face Shen Fanghua, he had no choice due to the ultimatum given by the woman and because of his relationship with the enchanting Shen Peini.

He had no choice but to attend.

Upon entering the café, since there were not many customers, Lin Fei quickly found Shen Fanghua seated by the window, still graceful and elegant.

“You’re thirty-six minutes late, which is okay. You are a few minutes late, but you still made it. Not bad, braver than I had expected,” Shen Fanghua said, nodding and signaling with her eyes for Lin Fei to sit down, while using her imposing demeanor to psychologically pressure Lin Fei.

After all, as the executive director of Mu Group, Shen Fanghua had fought many battles in the business world in her youth. When she deliberately put on airs, she was quite formidable.

Especially since she herself felt unjust and was angered.

If it were someone else from the professional world, even those who had made achievements, facing Shen Fanghua at that moment would be very daunting unless they had excellent psychological resilience.

However, given Lin Fei’s many experiences and his almost abnormal mental strength, being intimidated was clearly impossible.

After seating himself as Shen Fanghua nodded, and hearing her blatantly intimidating words, Lin Fei paused to think before looking at Shen Fanghua with a seemingly warm expression, “Auntie, I’m really sorry for being late. There was a traffic jam. Please forgive me.”

Upon hearing Lin Fei unexpectedly address her as “auntie,” any pretense of authority Shen Fanghua had set up collapsed in an instant.

Her slightly cold face also froze.

At this moment, Shen Fanghua seemed completely taken aback by Lin Fei’s address.

Ultimately, as an executive director who had spent over a decade in the business world, Shen Fanghua quickly recovered from her initial shock.

Quietly gathering her thoughts, Shen Fanghua’s eyes glinted coldly as she looked at Lin Fei again and coldly said, “I dare not accept such a title! Vice Minister Lin, just call me Director Shen. After all, you are President Mu’s husband. If you call me auntie and President Mu hears it, it might lead to misunderstandings. I cannot afford such a misunderstanding!”

“Actually, Shanshan is not unaware of my relationship with Penny.”

“What are you saying? President Mu knows about your relationship with Penny?! Vice Minister Lin, you can’t be joking with me, can you?!” Shen Fanghua inhaled deeply several times, having barely recovered from Lin Fei’s address as “auntie.” She couldn’t help but lose her composure again over his seemingly casual response.

“Shanshan definitely knows; she has just never pointed it out.” Lin Fei confirmed Shen Fanghua’s suspicion, took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed deeply to Shen Fanghua, “Auntie, I will handle the matter of my relationship with Shanshan and Penny properly. Please trust me, I will definitely not let Penny down.”

After Lin Fei had finished speaking, Shen Fanghua’s eyes fixed on him intently for five to six minutes, as if scrutinizing and oppressing him.

If an ordinary elite professional were to be stared at by Shen Fanghua like this, let alone five or six minutes, even five or six seconds would probably have them sweating with nervousness.

After all, she was an executive director of Mu Group. As Mu Group was subtly becoming a dominant force in Zhonghai’s private sector, Shen Fanghua’s status as its executive director also rose accordingly.

The woman’s imposing aura, inevitably, ascended with it.

In such circumstances, if one did not possess substantial inner strength and exceptional psychological resilience, they certainly couldn’t withstand Shen Fanghua’s intense scrutiny.

Fortunately, whether it was his background or his mental fortitude, Lin Fei had no issues at all.

Let alone five or six minutes, even five or six hours wouldn’t make Lin Fei falter.

Shen Fanghua, being an executive director of Mu Group, was intimidating enough for most. However, for Lin Fei, a key figure of the Hell’s Judgement Organization, it really wasn’t much at all.

After all, if one were to speak of status, Lin Fei himself held a noble title from a country in the Western Continent.

“I don’t just want your promise. This time I’ve approached you not to secure guarantees that you will treat Penny well. First, I do not approve of your relationship with Penny. Second, I don’t intend to grant you the right to be good to her. Unless, you can manage to leave president Mu.”

After several minutes of staring that couldn’t make Lin Fei show any sign of weakening, Shen Fanghua simply dropped her attempts to overpower him with her presence. Instead, she directly stated her reason for talking to Lin Fei.

Leave Mu Shanshan!

“I can’t do it.”

What couldn’t be done just couldn’t be done. If Shen Fanghua, the executive director, had other demands that he also couldn’t fulfill, Lin Fei might have resorted to stalling.

However, when it came to his relationship with Mu Shanshan, the icy corporate executive, Lin Fei would absolutely not delay or beat around the bush.

“Your answer is quite straightforward. It makes sense though. Penny is indeed excellent. But when compared to the perfect Mu Shanshan, Penny naturally falls short. Vice Minister Lin, your unwillingness to leave Mu Shanshan for Penny is quite natural,” Shen Fanghua seemingly self-mocked after hearing that he couldn’t leave the icy corporate executive.

Then, with cold and intense eyes, the woman stared directly at Lin Fei, picking up the coffee cup beside her and slamming it down hard!

Bang!

After a muffled sound, without even looking at the coffee that splashed out, Shen Fanghua coldly berated Lin Fei, “Since, Vice Minister Lin, you refuse to leave Mu Shanshan. Then I must ask you, what do you consider our Penny to be?! A mistress? Or a lover?! As a married man who clings to Penny non-stop, don’t you think you are being too excessive?!”

With those words from Shen Fanghua, filled with anger, her eyes were not only cold but also visibly furious. One could imagine, if it weren’t for the fact that Lin Fei was the husband of Mu Shanshan, the icy corporate executive.

The coffee cup Shen Fanghua held would definitely not have just slammed on the table.

At this moment, it would most likely have already been smashed on Lin Fei…
