Chapter 23: Look at your performance
Chapter 23: Look at your performance
Wen Yan fell to the ground and gasped in pain, and just wanted to get up from the ground, a pair of high-end custom leather shoes that were not stained with fine dust appeared under his eyes, and Mu Tingchensen's cold voice came from the top of his head: "Give you two minutes." β
She looked up at his deep eyes and cautiously tentatively said, "You can ...... Did you let them go? β
She didn't notice the fleeting disappointment in his eyes, and what he wanted to hear was not this: "If you just want to say this if you are so desperate to catch up, you are wasting my time." β
After speaking, Mu Tingchen turned around and got into the car without hesitation, and the movement of vigorously closing the car door frightened Chen Nuo: "Help me cancel next week's return ticket, and I will take over the foreign branch by myself." β
Chen Nuo hesitated a little: "Young Master...... In that case, you won't be able to come back for at least three years...... Do you really want to cancel? β
He leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes, his thin lips pursed into an arc of displeasure: "If you want to do it, you can do it!" β
Wen Yan stood where she was and didn't leave, until the car disappeared without a trace, she hadn't come back to her senses, her heart seemed to have been hollowed out, she had a hunch that from now on, she really had nothing......
Three years later, the Commercial Building of the M Moser branch in Washington.
A sudden ringtone of mobile phones suddenly sounded in the huge conference room, and everyone held their breath and looked cautiously at the cold man on the main seat.
The assistant on the side whispered, "Mr. Mu, it's your phone." β
The man's eyes sank: "Hang up." "This meeting is very important, and he is a little dissatisfied with the assistant's 'ignorance'.
The assistant stubbornly explained: "It's my wife calling......"
Wife......
Of course he knew who his wife was, Wen Yan.
Mu Tingchen took the mobile phone from his assistant: "The meeting is temporarily over, changed to four o'clock in the afternoon, and the meeting is adjourned." β
Everyone sighed for a while, and the boss, who has always been business-oriented, postponed such an important meeting because of a phone call from his wife......
Walking out of the conference room, Mu Tingchen answered the phone, and a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Are you busy?" I...... I'm looking for you ...... something."
Wen Yan was still so cautious when he spoke, but he was curious about what she called for the first time in three years: "Say." β
"Yaoyao is about to get engaged, she and her fiancΓ© want to return to China for development, can you let her come back?" Wen Yan was a little nervous.
Three years ago, Chen Mengyao and Shen Jie were sent abroad and ordered not to come back for the rest of their lives.
She knew that this was Mu Tingchen's punishment for her, and she never dared to say more, but after three years, Chen Mengyao rarely begged her, so she made this phone call hard.
Mu Tingchen's footsteps paused slightly, and her face sank a little, she actually looked for him for this kind of thing......
didn't hear his response, Wen Yan was a little panicked: "I was going to that party by myself, it has nothing to do with Yaoyao, you don't need to be angry with her at all, she and Shen Jie have been abroad by you for three years, can't you let them go?" Count me begging you......"
Mu Tingchen held back his anger and said in a deep voice: "I will return to China in three days to see how you perform." With that, he hung up the phone and kicked against the wall of the hallway.
The assistant behind him was so frightened that he didn't dare to get too close.
Wen Yan stared at the phone screen for a long time before he came back to his senses, he was going back to China?
He had left in a hurry three years ago, and had never come back since, and she thought he never wanted to see her again in his life.
Finally digested this matter, Wen Yan was even more nervous than when he called just now, and hurriedly got up and went downstairs: "Mother Liu, please clean up and down the house in the past two days......"
Liu's mother was a little surprised, because she had never cared about these things: "What's the matter?" β
Wen Yan couldn't tell whether he was happy or scared in his heart: "He ...... It's coming back. β
Mother Liu was stunned for a while, and after reacting to who she was referring to, she smiled and squinted: "Really? Is the young master coming back? That's good, you haven't been together for three years of marriage, just come back, I'll let people clean up in the next two days, don't worry. β
Back in the room, Wen Yan cleaned up all the messy manuscripts in the room, she worked in a clothing design company, she had just turned regular, she was usually busy, the house was messy, Liu Ma didn't know which drafts she didn't want, and she didn't dare to clean up, Mu Tingchen came back, she didn't want him to see her sloppy side.
β¦β¦
On the day Mu Tingchen came back, she specially inquired with Steward Lin about his flight time, and went to the airport early to wait.
It was a snowy winter when he left, and he came back too...... During this three years, she felt like a dream, passing in the blink of an eye.
In the crowd, she saw the outstanding long figure at a glance, just like three years ago, with all eyes and high spirits.
It's just that when she saw the woman holding his arm, she was stunned, he didn't come back alone......
When Mu Tingchen and the woman approached, Wen Yan heard the words between their ears and temples: "Brother Tingchen, is it okay to accompany me in the hotel tonight?" I'm scared alone......"
"Let's talk about it." His answer was cold, but with a rare amount of patience.
Wen Yan had the urge to run away, but a second before she turned around, Mu Tingchen's eyes fell on her, without the slightest surprise, nor any other emotions, and asked lightly: "Why are you here?" β
Wen Yan was a little at a loss, and his words seemed to say that she was superfluous: "I...... I ......"
She couldn't speak, even if she wanted to say that she was here to pick up friends, it was just a lie that could be easily debunked by him, and she had no friends around her at all.
Mu Tingchen ignored her, and instead said softly to the woman next to him: "You go to the hotel first, obedient." β
The woman is very young, her body is full of youthful atmosphere, the white fur with playful high-heeled boots, a smile is so attractive to the eye, her youth and liveliness are diametrically opposed to Wen Yan's gloom.
The woman glanced at Wen Yan curiously: "Okay, then you have to come to accompany others at night." β
Mu Tingchen hooked the corners of his mouth, and when the woman walked away through the crowd, he regained his indifference and walked out.
Wen Yan followed him silently, Chen Nuo waited outside, and after getting in the car, no one spoke.
She wasn't in a position to ask who the woman was, and he wouldn't explain.
When she was about to arrive at Mu Mansion, she asked, "When can Yaoyao come back?" β
Mu Tingchen's attention was on the phone, and his slender fingers moved on the screen, replying to the message, the woman's message.
"I said, look at your performance." There was a hint of impatience between his eyebrows, as if he was disgusted to say a word to her.
She didn't dare to ask again, and was habitually silent.
Until dinner, Mu Tingchen was still holding his mobile phone to reply to messages, Wen Yan had no appetite, and put down his chopsticks without eating a few bites: "I...... I'm going to work overtime tonight, so I'll go first. β
She didn't want to be an eyesore, and she didn't want to be a stumbling block for him to find the woman.
"Stop!" But before she could leave, his voice came from her ears.
Wen Yan raised his eyes and met his cold and displeased gaze.
