Lu Lingche withdrew his gaze, his voice cold: “I never knew Young Master Mu had such a hobby, liking divorced women; weren’t you a staunch celibate? Now you want to get married?”
Dongfang Mu still had a smile on his face: “It’s not that I like divorced women,
I just like her.”
“As for her being divorced–in modern society, who pays attention to that? I’m not some innocent young man, we’re quite a match.”
“Celibacy, yes, I did think so in the past. But now that’s changed, suddenly it feels like having a wife and children wouldn’t be bad.”
“Besides, compared to President Lu, I’m a little lacking. After all, President Lu even managed to get his own elder brother’s woman pregnant. Your taste is even more peculiar, I’m quite impressed.”
When Lu Lingche heard him bring up his elder brother, his expression darkened. His affair with Lan Yuyi had indeed become an indelible stain in his life.
However, how capable was Qiao Yin? In just a few short periods, she had already charmed Dongfang Mu so much?
Dongfang Mu’s past girlfriends continuously made headlines, yet he had never proposed to anyone!
Lu Lingche was a bit agitated. He got up, went over to Qiao Yin, grabbed her wrist, and abruptly helped her up.
The over twenty members from Shengling Corporation and Eastern Empire all looked at Qiao Yin in unison.
They were all shocked!
What’s happening here?
Why was President Lu pulling Young Master Mu’s female assistant by the hand? Didn’t he have a reputation for not being interested in women? The Shengling Corporation had collaborated with plenty of hot actresses, yet he has never shown interest in any of them.
At a critical moment like this, was he trying to steal Young Master Mu’s girl?
And what’s even stranger was Dongfang Mu’s reaction.
It had always been him stealing other people’s girlfriends, never the other way around!
But now, his disarmingly attractive female assistant was having her hand held by President Lu, and he wasn’t angry! He was even smiling?
This was truly bewitching!
Qiao Yin never expected Lu Lingche to grab her hand with all eyes on them. Subconsciously, she first looked at Dongfang Mu. Once she saw he was smiling and didn’t seem to be angry, she felt relieved.
She lowered her voice: “Lu Lingche, let go of me!”
Lu Lingche noticed that when he grabbed her, her first reaction was to consider Dongfang Mu’s feelings. His anger was instantly ignited.
He gripped her wrist tighter and forcefully dragged her out of the conference room.
There was no one else in the corridor outside the meeting room, it was just the two of them. Qiao Yin had no scruples and forcefully shook off his hand: “What do you want?!”
“That’s what I should be asking you!”
Lu Lingche glared at her, “Why are you on Dongfang Mu’s team? Why are you traveling with him?”
“I’m Dongfang Mu’s assistant. What’s wrong with me going on a trip with him? Weren’t you there when I interviewed with him?”
“You’re already working for Lu Yanxi. The Lu Family has also given you a 20 million investment, so why are you still Dongfang Mu’s assistant? Working two jobs?”
“Don’t you know how poor I am, President Lu? Don’t you know how much debt my father owes? Can I use the 20 million you gave me? How can I survive if I don’t work more jobs? My brother still needs money for school. Didn’t you hear our argument about it that day?”
Her barrage of questions gradually extinguished the anger in Lu Lingche’s heart.
She was actually traveling with Dongfang Mu for money?
He looked at her coldly: “Your brother shouldn’t be your responsibility. He has parents, you don’t need to carry that burden, and you don’t have to work so hard to make money either.”
Qiao Yin was surprised. Did he really think her brother wasn’t her responsibility?
She had thought that he would think like her stepmother and biological father–that it was only right for her to pay Qiao Jiasen’s 500,000 tuition fees.
For once, he had said something reasonable.
However, she was willing to pay Qiao Jiasen’s tuition, not for her father, but because she thought her brother was sensible now and it was heartbreaking to see him mature so fast.
She didn’t want him to transfer schools or continue working part-time anymore..
