Luo Chenxi did not expect him to ask such a question.
She was stunned for a moment before she nodded. “Yes, that’s right, but…”
“But what? What’s your relationship with Sheng Yu?” Mu Yichen mercilessly cut her off.
Under the man’s icy, piercing gaze, Luo Chenxi felt a shiver run down her spine, as if she was a white little rabbit gazed down by a fierce tiger.
“What kind of relationship do you think I have with Chief Sheng? We’re just coworkers of a different hierarchy! He’s my immediate superior and I’m his subordinate, what’s wrong with it?”
Mu Yichen snorted. “Is that so? That doesn’t seem like the case to me. Why would an immediate superior send a female subordinate all the way home? He’s definitely harboring special feelings for you! Have you also been going to SL Corporation everyday recently because of Sheng Yu?”
Hearing this, Luo Chenxi immediately became angry and her face turned red.
“Mu Yichen! How narrow-minded can you be? How can you assume that I went to SL Corporation to have an affair with another man? Are you telling me that you can’t tell how hard I’ve been working on my designs?
“I’m doing it because of the Huafeng Competition, I’m doing it for sake of my dream of being a fashion designer! What would a wealthy young master who thinks so highly of himself, just for being handsome and rich like you know?”
Luo Chenxi could not control herself in the heat of the moment and fiercely snapped at Mu Yichen.
When she finished, she ended up trembling deep down as she saw Young Master Mu’s gradually darkening face.
Luo Chenxi’s stance imemdiately softened up as she lowered her voice, “Your suspicions about Chief Sheng and I aren’t true in the least bit. That’s all I have to say. Whether you choose to believe me or not, it’s completely up to you.”
Mu Yichen stared coldly at the flush-faced woman before him.
He felt a surge of fury in his heart.
How dare this woman yell at him!
The last person who dared go up against him was so dead that his grave was already crawling with 1 meter thick moss!
He should really teach this woman a good lesson.
However, when the man looked at Luo Chenxi’s big, round eyes that were filled with anger, the only thought that appeared in his mind was—Had he wrongly accused her? Should he give her a hug and coax her a little?
What the h*ll?
Mu Yichen pursed his lips. “Well… if there really isn’t anything between the two of you, why are you getting angry at me for sending him a few messages?”
Even the man himself was unaware that his tone had become so much more gentler.
Just a moment ago, he was like an intimidating man questioning his wife for cheating on him.
However, now, he looked as if he was a blockhead of a man who could not figure out why he made his girlfriend angry.
Luo Chenxi glared at him. “You… How do you still have the nerve to say that? You are simply spouting nonsense in your messages! What do you mean by ‘I’m her man’? That isn’t the case at all, alright?”
Mu Yichen’s brows suddenly furrowed.
“I am not your man? Are you telling me that you’ve never seen me naked, or that you’ve never touched me before? Or maybe, we’ve never actually slept together before? How old do you think our child is right now? How can you still say that I’m not your man?”
Luo Chenxi’s face reddened a little more when she heard the man’s blunt speech.
Even though she was not related to Tang Tang by blood, she had indeed gone all the way with Mu Yichen already.
However…
“Mu Yichen, have you forgotten? You were the one who warned me on our wedding night to not regard myself as your wife, and to not speak a word about our relationship to the outside. So, what is it that you’re trying to say now? Are you trying to make up with me and have us start acting like true husband and wife?”
Hearing this, Mu Yichen lightly gasped.
The questions that were already on the tip of his tongue were forcefully shoved to the back of his throat, he could not say a word.
Luo Chenxi raised her sharp chin and looked at him. “Well?”
As if he had taken an arrow to the knee, Mu Yichen suddenly jumped down from the bed.
“Don’t… don’t overthink it, I just want you to remember to keep your distance with other men, so that you don’t ruin the Mu Family’s reputation! I’m off! I’m sleeping in the study room tonight!”
Looking at Mu Yichen’s back as he walked away, Luo Chenxi bit her lip.
At that moment, she even had a flash of hope that Mu Yichen would stay.
She raised her hand and knocked on her head. “What are you thinking? You’ll be leaving as soon as mommy’s surgery is done. It doesn’t matter how handsome Young Master Mu is, he’ll never be yours. You’d better stop dreaming.”
