Chapter 49 -49 Is He Naive, or Is She Naive?_1
Su Wanxia laughed in bed for a long time, wanting to sleep some more, but she just couldn’t fall back asleep.
Because she really wanted to go see what Mu Yingchen was up to, she got up, just about to put on her shoes, when her clear, dark eyes twinkled. She put aside her high heels, tiptoed barefoot to the door, and stealthily made her way out.
She quietly poked her head out, and to her surprise, she did not see Mu Yingchen at his office desk. Then, stretching out a bit further, she saw Mu Yingchen with his back to her, sitting on the sofa focused on a thick stack of documents.
With a sly smile, she crept up behind him without making a sound, reaching out to snatch the document from his hands. Unexpectedly, as if Mu Yingchen had eyes in the back of his head, he instantly placed the document on the table.
Su Wanxia’s hand was left awkwardly hanging in mid-air, exposed before him.
Mu Yingchen turned his head and saw Su Wanxia’s frustrated look, his eyes twinkling with amusement as he uttered two words: “Naughty girl.”
Stomping her foot, Su Wanxia challenged, “How did you notice me?” She was certain she hadn’t made a sound. How did he know she was behind him? Could he indeed have a third eye?
Mu Yingchen’s playful smile grew wider as he gestured for her to look ahead.
Following his gaze, Su Wanxia turned and immediately felt a wave of frustration. Right in front of her was the observation deck, with the large floor-to-ceiling glass faintly reflecting the room’s interior. So he had known all along what she was up to behind him and had just quietly played along, letting her amuse herself. What a cunning, sneaky man!
“Mu Yingchen! You saw everything, why didn’t you say anything?” Su Wanxia was livid, feeling toyed with wasn’t pleasant, especially since she had intended to tease him, but instead, it backfired on her, leaving her feeling utterly imbalanced.
“Why would I, when it’s so interesting?” Mu Yingchen looked innocent, as if watching such an adorable scene of hers was reason enough to stay silent.
“You…” Su Wanxia was so flustered by his demeanor that she lost her words.
Mu Yingchen looked at her with a raised eyebrow, seeing her face turn red, “Well, why don’t we try again? This time I’ll just let you take the document, okay?” He said, picking up the document from the table and posing as he had before.
The corners of Su Wanxia’s mouth twitched. Was he treating her like a three-year-old child?
With a huff of annoyance, she mumbled: “Childish!”
This time, Mu Yingchen laughed heartily. Who was the childish one, her or him?
Su Wanxia’s face turned red involuntarily; she knew what he was laughing at. He must be laughing at her calling him childish.
The moment the word left her mouth, she regretted it. Wasn’t this just shooting herself in the foot? But the words that had been spoken and the water that had been spilled, could not be taken back.
She could only sit mournfully on the sofa, watching him gazing at her with unrestrained mirth.
Secretary Aisha arrived at the door of the CEO’s office, thinking about knocking when she suddenly heard the faint sound of laughter from inside. She thought she was hearing things, but after listening carefully again, her mouth dropped open. It was their big BOSS laughing, heavens!
Having followed CEO Mu for so many years, she had never seen him laugh so openly. Most of the time he was stoic, offering polite smiles to business partners or at most a slight curl of his lips. Who in the world was Miss Su to have such a great influence!
“What are you doing standing there, come in,” Ji Hua suddenly appeared behind her, startling her.
“Hehe, Miss Su is inside.”
“That’s okay,” Ji Hua said, and then knocked on the door without waiting for Mu Yingchen’s response, he pushed the door open and walked in. Secretary Aisha had no choice but to follow him, steeling herself.
“Oh, Wanxia is here too,” Ji Hua greeted them with a playful laugh as he approached Mu Yingchen and the others.
“I don’t recall letting you in,” Mu Yingchen glanced up.
“But I knocked, and you didn’t say not to come in, so I just assumed you were letting me in,” Ji Hua replied with a bright smile.
Su Wanxia covered her mouth and snickered; Ji Hua’s mouth was unbeatable.
“Here, this is the cooperation case with Hengtian that needs your signature, it’s urgent. Once you sign it, I’ll stop bothering you lovebirds,” he said, then glanced at Su Wanxia’s bare feet.
Su Wanxia tugged at her skirt hem, feeling somewhat embarrassed. After all, she was in Mu Yingchen’s office, and her attire was indeed inappropriate.
Then she inadvertently caught sight of Secretary Aisha following behind Ji Hua. Secretary Aisha was shocked once again—Miss Su was actually barefoot, just sitting there in President Mu’s office!
Su Wanxia felt even more embarrassed under Aisha’s gaze. She tugged at her skirt again and hid her feet further inwards. Only then did her long chiffon skirt cover her exposed feet.
Meanwhile, Mu Yingchen had already reviewed the cooperation case brought by Mu Chuyang, signed his name, and handed it to Ji Hua.
Ji Hua chuckled twice, “I’ll be off then; you two continue,” he said.
Mu Yingchen narrowed his eyes; Su Wanxia glared at him annoyance, “Hua, once you manage to control that mouth of yours, you’ll be able to find a wife.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Hua’s face stiffened, and then he left abruptly with a terse cut of disapproval.
Su Wanxia smiled proudly.
Secretary Aisha internally felt a storm of astonishment. Miss Su actually talked to Director Ji like this, and President Mu even seemed to agree—it was not simple, not simple at all.
Then, with an impassive face, she handed the document to Mu Yingchen, “President Mu, this document requires your signature.”
Mu Yingchen took it, briefly skimmed through it, signed it after confirming everything was in order, and handed it back to Aisha.
After Aisha left, Mu Yingchen handed a thick file he had been looking at to Su Wanxia, “Take a look.”
Su Wanxia was puzzled, “What’s this?”
“You’ll know once you look at it.”

“Oh.”
Su Wanxia took it and quietly read the title on the first page, “Bali Island project presidential suite renderings?”
As she saw it, she seemed to understand something. She flipped past the first page, and sure enough, there were the glittering images of the presidential suite.
“Isn’t this made by the famous designer Wen Lingya from your team?” Su Wanxia began somewhat helplessly.
This Wen Lingya was too competitive. Taking advantage of the time Meng Can and she went on a field trip, Wen had already finished the room design. Was it really that important whose design was used?
“She’s not from my team; she’s the designer endorsed by several other investors,” Mu Yingchen said indifferently.
“Oh…” Su Wanxia nodded in understanding. That’s what she thought; with Mu Yingchen’s standard of selecting people, how could he choose someone like Wen Lingya? Wen may have a small reputation domestically, but her design style was too rigid. No matter what style of building, as long as it was a presidential suite, she defined it as luxurious and lavish. Her style might suit skyscrapers, but for a place rich in culture like Bali Island, it was unsuitable.
“I’m looking forward to your work,” Mu Yingchen said to her.
“OK, I won’t let you down,” Su Wanxia replied confidently.
Mu Yingchen stared at Su Wanxia with deep eyes, making a startling statement, “Should we then continue with our sleep?”
