Chapter 1229 - Dream-like Reunion! 4

1229 Dream-like Reunion! 4

That was indeed the truth.

Elder Zhou had already told him that, as long as it was a woman who had no particular issues, the Zhou family would be willing to accept her. It was obvious that the Zhou family was really desperate in this matter.

“Don’t speak as if you’re an expert. I was in a relationship before. You just got lucky. How could you possibly know better than me?” Zhou Zimo’s eyes darkened, but a smile returned to his face moments later though Mu Yuchen noticed the changes.

He took a pause before saying, “Even if I just got lucky this once, it’s much better than you. Stop pretending to be the expert. Admiring doesn’t mean love. If Su Chen were here, he might’ve thought you actually went through something serious.”

“Screw you! Why so serious?” Zhou Zimo rolled his eyes at Mu Yuchen and tried to change the topic. “When are you leaving New York? And when are you coming back? I’m not going to be able to show my face, or else, all of our efforts will be wasted!” he reminded.

Mu Yuchen took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. I’ll have everything arranged here. I’ll be away for a week and we’ll be leaving tomorrow night. I’m just bringing Xiaye around.”

“A second honeymoon?” Zhou Zimo raised his eyebrows.

Mu Yuchen just stared at him silently.

“Fine, fine. I’ll shut up, alright?” Zhou Zimo shrugged.

“I’ll inform Uncle Zhou once the arrangements here have been made. You need to be prepared as it’ll be difficult this time. Clean up your own mess. I’m not going to do it for you.”

“Heartless!” Zhou Zimo smiled, but gratitude was reflected in his eyes. He was very grateful to have such good friends in his life.

“Su Chen gave me a call just now and said that he might come over if he has the time. Make up some excuse and tell him to go back. Uncle Zhou and he shouldn’t be involved in this mess.” Mu Yuchen sounded worried.

“I won’t be coming over tonight. Give me a call if you need anything.”

“A date?”

“I have a guest. You take care. I’m going to go now.”

...

It was just about evening when the plane arrived in New York.

Han Yifeng was wearing his usual suit when he got out of the airport.

Behind him were Secretary Wang and a bodyguard.

“CEO Han!”

When Han Yifeng walked out of the airport, Li Si was already waiting for him. Li Si had followed Mu Yuchen’s instructions and was prepared for Han Yifeng’s arrival.

Han Yifeng was stunned for a moment when he saw the familiar face, but he nodded moments later. “Long time no see, Assistant Li!”

Li Si smiled. “Long time no see indeed. What an honor to meet you! How are you doing?”

“I’m great. How’s Xiaye...and everybody else?” Han Yifeng’s tone of voice did not sound natural, but he still managed to ask the question.

“Master and Missus are doing great. Thank you for your concern! It must have been a long journey here. Our Master has already prepared dinner. Please stay over for tonight, and then we’ll send you to the hotel you booked tomorrow. Is that alright?” Li Si asked politely.

Han Yifeng gave it some thought, but he could not figure it out. He did not understand why Mu Yuchen would come to New York, and how did he know that Han Yifeng planned to come here for work?

Moreover, what business did he have with him?

Naturally, he still remembered how Mu Yuchen was like. It had been nothing but trouble when he had to deal with him before, so Han Yifeng was not exactly looking forward to meeting Mu Yuchen.

Han Yifeng understood that that was not the only reason for his reluctance. It was also because of his jealousy towards him that he had no idea how to face him!

He would be reminded that Mu Yuchen was the only one who could be with Xi Xiaye every time they met, and guilt and jealousy instantly surfaced inside him. When he thought about how he had lost the right to be with her anymore, an indescribable feeling rose within him.

It would feel odd to not accept his invitation right now, so Han Yifeng nodded shortly after that. “Alright, then.”

“Please get in the car. It’s just right in front!”

Li Si had the bodyguards pick up the luggage as Han Yifeng nodded and followed them.

The sky was turning dark as the car left the airport.

Han Yifeng felt a little on edge as he was on the way to the hotel. His eyes were looking outside the window, and he started to daydream a while later.

“CEO Han, it’s been a long time since you returned to City Z, hasn’t it?” Li Si suddenly asked.

“Indeed. Are there a lot of changes to City Z?” Han Yifeng paused before answering.

“It depends on what aspect then.” Li Si smiled.

Han Yifeng took another pause before putting on a smile, and the conversation just ended there.

There were still some ways left to the hotel. It was already night time when they arrived at the hotel where Mu Yuchen was staying.

Inside Mu Yuchen’s luxurious room, Xi Xiaye still had no idea who the guest was. Her man started being busy with cooking since the evening. He made Chinese dishes, and most of them were her favorites.

Xi Xiaye helped Mu Yuchen out in the kitchen, and they got dinner ready after some time.

“Smells great. I’m sure it’s difficult to find this food here. Mr. Mu, why don’t you consider opening a restaurant here? I notice that a lot of people in New York like Chinese food too, especially authentic Chinese food,” Xi Xiaye asked as she washed the ginger.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Let Zhou Zimo worry about this. He’s interested in the food and beverage business. We have too much on our plate to worry about.”

Mu Yuchen knew his capabilities and how much he could handle.
