Chapter 322 - CEO, you must be here to find fault with me!

“Oh, it is a man with a pair of tender-looking eyes. He is quite handsome and is only a little bit lacking compared to your family’s CEO Ji. If I didn’t have a boyfriend, I might even go for him.”

Tang Xiaoyu grinned.

Fine! Tender-looking eyes... That’s the same answer I have in my heart.

“Is he called Mu Heng?” She lightly snorted. I knew it! Other than that Casanova, no one around that annoying fellow is so lame and gossipy.

“Yes, that’s his name. Ge Ge, do you know him?” Tang Xiaoyu looked at her curiously. She just realized now that her childhood friend’s networks seemed to have undergone a major change without her knowledge.

No matter whether it was that Ji Ziming from last night or that Mu Heng this morning, they were people who stood out from the crowd. The aura and charisma they exuded were also something above what the typical rich sons exuded.

She, who was barely considered to be from a rich family, could see that the two men were not just from any typically affluent families.

The two men with noble aura should be from the country’s top affluent families.

Thinking up to this, Tang Xiaoyu’s expression turned serious as she began to worry for her best friend.

“Of course, I know him. He is CEO Ji’s good friend and is a well-known Casanova.” Pei Ge nudged her lips, looking as if she did not welcome Mu Heng at all.

“I see... No wonder I sensed thick pheromones from him! He is actually an experienced flirt.” Tang Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow and joked.

“What did he say to you?” She was a little curious about this.

“Nothing much. He only came to ask me about our relationship and to inform me that you left in your CEO Ji’s car. He also conveniently asked me out on a date if I am free tonight.” Tang Xiaoyu slouched in her chair as she nonchalantly narrated.

“Sh*t! That Casanova must’ve taken a fancy to you! You must never ever agree to be his date. He is definitely not trustworthy. Who knows how many girlfriends he has had. He was even featured in several entertainment magazines because of this!” A deep furrow formed on Pei Ge’s forehead as she inwardly scolded Mu Heng, that Casanova, to no end.

“Nonsense. Do you think your sister here will ever accept his invitation? This lady is in a committed relationship!” Tang Xiaoyu raise her chin and lightly harrumphed, looking as if she despised the man.

Looking at her best friend, she also thought that this outstanding woman would realistically not put Mu Heng in her eye. Her heart, thus, finally eased.

“What are you two lasses happily talking about?” Zhang Manhua, who was watching TV at the side, turned to address them when a commercial was shown.

“We were talking about Ge Ge’s recent blind dates!” Tang Xiaoyu happily informed her.

When her best friend naturally came up with a topic, she speechlessly spat inside, Indeed, this lass is the same as ever – a smooth liar.

She did not even blink when she fibbed, as if it were second nature to her.

Her mother’s interest was instantly piqued when she heard her best friend’s words.

“Our Ge Ge has been on so many blind dates and finally found a suitable one!” Zhang Manhua stopped watching TV as she excitedly discussed this with Tang Xiaoyu.

“This date is pretty good. He is handsome, has a decent job, and certainly has a good future. I am just unsure if they will pull through.”

While Tang Xiaoyu appeared as if she were earnestly discussing this with Zhang Manhua, her best friend’s occasional act of turning around to give her a conspiratorial smile clued Pei Ge otherwise.

Of course, this date won’t pull through! That whatever Wen Qimo guy is gay, after all!

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Ge Ge is totally incompatible with blind dates!

It is true that when she goes on a blind date, she will meet either a jerk or an eccentric.

Now, she has even met a gay guy! She can totally start filming a drama now. Such heartache!

As the two gamely discussed Pei Ge’s love life, some waitresses came in to serve the dishes they had ordered.

“All your dishes have been served. Please call us if you have any other needs.”

Pei Ge looked at the few waitresses in gratitude.

You guys really came at the right time! If these dishes didn’t arrive at this time, I really don’t know how long my mom and best friend would talk about my love life.

“Come, come, come. Xiaoyu, eat more. Look at how skinny you’ve gotten.” Her mother picked up a slice of meat and put it in her best friend’s bowl.

“Auntie, you should eat more, too, as you have also become skinnier.” Her best friend also placed a slice of meat in her mother’s bowl.

Seeing the two happily filling each other’s bowls, she pretended to be unhappy and asked, “What about me? What about me? Why is no one saying that I’ve gotten skinnier and filling my bowl, too?”

“No such thing. I even feel that you have gotten fatter compared to before.” Tang Xiaoyu blinked with a serious expression.

“Puh!” Zhang Manhua burst into laughter at that, clearly amused by their banter.

“Alright, alright. Mom will give you some food. Here, eat this.” Her mother happily placed meat into her bowl.

Looking at the meat in her bowl, she was finally satisfied.

The three finished their lunch with laughter and much chattering. Since she still had work in the afternoon, she could not stay and continue chatting with them after lunch.

“Xiaoyu, you should stay here and accompany mom. I’ll go back to work now,” she hurriedly told her best friend this while looking at the clock.

She was already tardy this morning, so she should be punctual this afternoon.

“Okay, go on. Remember to come home early tonight.” Tang Xiaoyu nodded with a smile.

“Yes. I’ll quickly come home after work is over.”

With that, she hurriedly exited the private room and walked out of the hotel.

She was just thinking if she would be able to immediately flag down a taxi when she again spotted Ji Ziming’s Maybach the moment she got out of the hotel.

“...” The hell?! Can we be any more coincidental? This is already the third time in a row today that I see this annoying fellow’s car. It’s hard not to flatter myself into thinking that he is purposely waiting for me!

“Get in.”

Hearing the same two words from him, she nudged her lips speechlessly.

I already said that I will avoid his car, so why am I unable to do so every time?

“Er... CEO Ji, are you going back to the office?” she carefully asked.

She still recalled how this man had caused her to be late this morning.

“What do you think?” he asked back while coldly peering at her.

“...”

F*ck! You are the company’s biggest boss; you can go or not go to work depending on your mood, so how will I know if you are going there now?!
