The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!

Chapter 686: A Gift from the Boyfriend?

Mu Yiliang found a vase and placed the bouquet of roses in water, keeping them vibrant throughout the afternoon. While working, she glanced at them from time to time, feeling extremely delighted.

At four o’clock, her assistant told her someone was visiting her. Mu Yiliang said, "Let him come in directly," and then continued focusing on her computer screen. Soon, she heard the sound of high heels clicking.

Mu Yiliang looked up and saw a face with an unforgettable smile.

"Yiliang? Do you remember me?"

"...Xin?"

She stood up from her seat in surprise, "I didn’t expect it to be you! Come in, have a seat!"

Ever since they parted ways at the last gathering, they hadn’t met again, although they had chatted twice on WeChat. Mu Yiliang had a very good impression of her.

Xin’s eyes almost immediately fell on the bouquet of roses on the table, and she showed a secretive smile, "From your boyfriend?"

"Uh...no," she said, feeling slightly embarrassed.

"Then a suitor," Xin winked.

Mu Yiliang smiled and tacitly agreed, pouring her a cup of tea, "What brought you here today?"

"It’s like this, our company has a collaboration with Fengye, and our boss sent me to liaise, so I came to see you." She smiled slightly, "And the moment I arrived, I heard some major gossip. Our boss even said he’s glad Fengye is now under FIS’s control; otherwise, he’d back out."

It’s probably because Gu Benhong relies on this aspect that he’s acting unscrupulously...

"Mr. Gu’s personal affairs aren’t something I want to comment on..." Mu Yiliang wasn’t interested in continuing this topic.

Xin chuckled, "It reminds me of when I used to work at FIS. Can you imagine that back then, Yan Sijue had also prioritized love over work? If I told anyone now, they wouldn’t believe it! That’s why I resigned back then."

Mu Yiliang unintentionally widened her eyes!

She had known for a long time that Xin used to work at FIS, but she didn’t expect Xin’s resignation was because of Yan Sijue...

Prioritizing love over work?

If her guess was correct, could this be the reason she and Yan Sijue separated back then?

"It certainly is surprising..." Mu Yiliang felt her heart race a bit, "But it’s rare to hear gossip about him. Can you talk about it?"

Xin thought for a moment, "At the time, I was just an ordinary employee. It was only by chance that my direct supervisor was Yan Sijue’s chief assistant, Yang Ru, so I learned a bit... During that period, Yan Sijue hardly left his house, neglecting the company’s affairs... Everyone speculated that he had a lover, but strangely, no one ever saw her. Anyway, people were uneasy during that time, and when a headhunter tried to poach me, I simply resigned from FIS. Not long after, Yan Sijue seemed to be on a roll."

After saying that, she shook her head with a smile, "It’s really incomprehensible."

Mu Yiliang subconsciously bit her lip.

Xin’s words not only failed to clear her doubts but also made her feel even more bewildered.

Seeing her unsettled expression, Xin asked worriedly, "What’s wrong?"

"Hmm? It’s nothing," she shook her head, "I was just thinking about Mr. Gu’s current situation... Should I resign too?"

"You don’t need to worry, Mr. Gu’s matters won’t affect Fengye," Xin reassured her with a smile, "I won’t disturb your work any longer, I’ll visit again when I have time."

Mu Yiliang smiled as she saw her out, then turned around to see the still vibrant bouquet of roses, and her mood suddenly sank.
