Chapter 1810 - 512: Gathering (Part 2)
Chapter 1810: Chapter 512: Gathering (Part 2) Xi Meng snatched Qiao Yi’s phone and said.
"Alright! How about tonight!"
Qiao Yi was a bit unhappy; he was anxious to ask Qin Mu for some gifts and needed to hurry.
"Oh! A few days ago, Yichen seemed to have bought the whole mountain near Qin Mu’s studio, did you hear about it?"
Zhao Huai thought of the gift and suddenly remembered Mu Yichen mentioning it a couple of days ago.
"What? Where did you hear that from? Do you even know how big that mountain is? Buying it might cost a few billion!"
Qiao Yi got anxious upon hearing this, wondering what he’d do with that mountain.
"Sounds a bit scary, but when has Yichen ever cared about money? His money is always for Qin Mu!"
Zhao Huai was fiddling with a lighter and continued to speak.
Qiao Yi exchanged a look with Xi Meng and then gave a helpless smile, thinking, of course! Whatever Mrs. Mu wants, Mr. Mu will give; whatever Mrs. Mu doesn’t want, Mr. Mu will give if he wants it!
After chatting for a while, they went to have a meal together, and Zhang Hongyun dared not be careless this time, hastily telling Xi Meng that Mu Yichen hadn’t signed the papers yet. Xi Meng immediately told Qiao Yi and Zhao Huai to leave first, and then went to Mu Yichen’s office with Zhang Hongyun.
Xi Meng first called Mu Yichen to confirm that he was on his way back, then hung up and turned to Zhang Hongyun.
"Next time, make sure he signs the document before letting him leave; people are waiting downstairs for it, yet you sent the boss away for a meeting. Luckily, our boss doesn’t like going out, otherwise you’d never find him. Dragging it to the afternoon harms you and the company, and you might even get fired."
Xi Meng held the document at the office door and spoke a lot to Zhang Hongyun.
Zhang Hongyun stood by listening, almost scared to tears; she feared Mu Yichen might fire her.
Mu Yichen had said to give her one more chance, but if she made another mistake, she’d be gone; she was terrified of being fired by him.
"Sister Xi Meng, you have to help me!"
Zhang Hongyun nervously grabbed Xi Meng’s hand, on the brink of tears.
"If you really made a mistake, what’s the point of asking me? If I were you, I’d ask someone who could really help!"
Xi Meng thought for a moment and suddenly said to her.
"Who?"
Zhang Hongyun asked excitedly.
"Qin Mu! Mr. Mu’s wife! But it won’t be too late to ask for help after the mistake is made!"
Xi Meng said with a smile, but Zhang Hongyun’s expression soured. Asking Qin Mu?
Whenever she thought of Qin Mu’s arrogant look in front of her, she wanted to scratch Qin Mu’s cold face; how could she ask for help?
"That woman seems to be very cold, probably looks down on us small shrimps, right?"
Zhang Hongyun spoke with a grudge, but maintained her manners.
"She is somewhat aloof by nature, but she is definitely not a snobbish young lady as you think."
Xi Meng knew Zhang Hongyun must dislike Qin Mu, but she had to be honest.
"Really? So, can I join your party tonight? I actually want to send my congratulations—of course, if I could use this chance to get closer with the boss’s wife, it’d be better. So she doesn’t always think I’m trying to steal Mr. Mu."
As Zhang Hongyun spoke, she lowered her head, her expression like a jar of mixed emotions.
"Sure!"
Xi Meng’s eyes twinkled and agreed!
Zhang Hongyun looked at her incredulously, and then excitedly grabbed her hand: "Thank you, Sister Xi Meng!"
Xi Meng smiled kindly, like a big sister.
——
That evening, Mu Yichen and Qin Mu, Helian Hao and Jing Feng, along with Zhao Huai and Xiaomei, Jiang Zhiyuan and An Nan, all came to Qiao Yi’s house. The elders knew the younger generation was gathering, so they took the little ones out to eat, leaving the house full of people around the same age, incredibly relaxed.
Xi Meng pulled Qin Mu aside and whispered: "Tonight, Zhang Hongyun is coming too!"
Qin Mu raised her eyes slightly and nodded: "Okay!"
Xi Meng knew Qin Mu understood what she meant, so she didn’t explain further.
However, when others saw Zhang Hongyun, they were indeed surprised, but they were more surprised to see the man behind her.
"Why are you here?"
Qiao Yi opened the door and was stunned upon seeing Zhang Hongyun; his expression was extremely displeased looking at the much shorter Zhang Hongyun.
"Sister Xi Meng told me to come and congratulate you!"
Zhang Hongyun spoke and immediately lifted the fruit basket she was holding to show him, smiling particularly friendly.
"Who is it, old Qin?"
Jiang Zhiyuan sensed something at the door and walked over; he tilted his head to see Zhang Hongyun, immediately delighted: "Where did this beautiful lady come from? Absolutely stunning!"
Qiao Yi sighed helplessly, then raised his eyes to see another man, Tan Yiwen nodded to him slightly, so Qiao Yi nodded back: "Come in."
"Okay!"
Zhang Hongyun agreed humbly and walked in with Tan Yiwen.
Jiang Zhiyuan, seeing a handsome guy, was slightly disappointed but still greeted them warmly with a smile.
"Hello, Zhao! Mr. Mu! Mrs. Mu! Sister Xi Meng!"
Among those Zhang Hongyun knew, she bowed respectfully one by one.
"You came! Next time, don’t bring gifts, we don’t have to be so formal between us!"
Xi Meng went over to speak, and an aunt quickly came to take the fruit basket from Zhang Hongyun.
"It’s my first time here! Besides, the fruit is cheap!"
Actually, the basket of fruit costs nearly a thousand yuan.
An Nan and Xiaomei stood with Qin Mu, both glanced at Qin Mu, silently asking if she knew this person.
Qin Mu smiled lightly and whispered: "The one who toasted Mr. Mu!"
The two instantly understood, surprised, and looked carefully at Zhang Hongyun.
Mu Yichen was eating fruits, pretending not to hear, picked a plum and went inside, while Jiang Zhiyuan stayed outside for fun, not moving, but Zhao Huai draped an arm around Mu Yichen and went in: "Yichen, this is dangerous!"
"Don’t be disruptive!"
Mu Yichen coldly instructed.
"Understood!"
In this situation today, Zhao Huai thought he really couldn’t be disruptive.
Although Qin Mu knew Zhang Hongyun, she wouldn’t actively chat with her; even though she seemed like friends with Xi Meng, Qin Mu had no plans to befriend all the women at Mu Yichen’s office.
Moreover, this woman had some despicable plot for her husband; she certainly couldn’t tolerate it. Without a slap, she was already being the most refined.
Zhang Hongyun saw Qin Mu didn’t speak and grew anxious, but she didn’t like dealing with Qin Mu either; she primarily wanted to see Mu Yichen’s normal behavior and hoped to blend in.
"Right, let me introduce you to my friend, from the same place, Tan Yiwen!"
Qin Mu finally raised her head upon hearing these words, coincidentally, Tan Yiwen looked towards the women, nodded to greet them, and Qin Mu gave a slight nod back.
This person once went shopping with Xi Meng, she remembered Fan Qing said he was a lawyer.
"Wow! Actually has a boyfriend!"
Qiao Yi finally laughed, asking her.
"Just regular friends, we grew up together; just so happens he’s free to accompany me tonight!"
Zhang Hongyun promptly pretended to explain calmly.
