Chapter 482: Flaunting Love Without a Sense of Decency (3)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Tingfeng’s stern face was still as expressionless as usual, but the red tips of his ears that snuck out between his hair had completely betrayed his real feelings.
‘This... This guy is feeling shy? Darn it, he’s so innocent!’
Zhao Youlin widened her eyes, as if she had discovered a new world. She stared intently at Mu Tingfeng’s reddish ear tips, but Mu Tingfeng, who was so shy that his eyes were wavering, did not realize that his ears had turned red.
He thought that he had hidden his embarrassment well, but he was not aware that he had given himself away.
Zhao Youlin rarely saw him being so awkward. She felt it was funny and thought he was a little… cute.
She secretly compared this man in front of her with the child in their house, and she came to the conclusion that… they were like father, like son!
After she had her fill laughing at him in her heart, Zhao Youlin’s expression brightened up. On behalf of how Mu Tingfeng was surprisingly thin-skinned in certain areas, she did not point it out to him, but sensibly chose to change the subject.
“Thanks. But what I am more curious about is: did Secretary Xia tell you anything else when he suggested you to give me flowers?”
Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered slightly. The temperature at the tip of his ears slowly receded. He answered in a deep voice, “Secretary Xia told me that most girls like flowers.”
“What else?”
“Tough women dislike clingy men. Most girls like men who are persistent, so I should never stop sending flowers.” Mu Tingfeng paused for a moment and changed his wording. “I should never stop sending gifts.”
Zhao Youlin was speechless. Could she say that she had inadvertently found the culprit that had caused her office to be flooded with flowers?
Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes and let out a very feeble sigh. “I think you might need to get a more reliable secretary.”
Mu Tingfeng raised his eyebrows slightly and projected his gaze naturally onto the bouquet of flowers held in Zhao Youlin’s hand.
Could it be that Secretary Xia was wrong again and that Youlin actually did not like flowers at all? Did he do something useless again?
With such a thought, Mu Tingfeng’s eyes narrowed at once; they gleamed with danger.
Xia Zhetao had just walked into Zhao Youlin’s office when he heard Zhao Youlin encourage Mu Tingfeng to get a new secretary. His expression changed immediately.
Without stopping to think, he had quickly darted into the room like a gust of wind and hugged Mu Tingfeng’s thigh while he let out a heartbreaking wail.
“President Mu, you can’t do this to me. I have been working for you for so many years. Even if I haven’t earned any credit, I have worked hard. I know I am not good enough, I am not understanding enough, I am not clever, and not smart enough. I might even have held you back sometimes. However, just for the fact that I have been so dedicated to serving you for so many years, have tried my best to make plans for you, and have even grown some white hairs, please don’t fire me!?I will definitely study well in the future, learn something every day, and strive to swiftly turn myself into a good nanny who excels in housework and social life, who can obtain a contract, and warm the bed for you. No, I mean, I can turn myself into the best secretary for you. Please give me an opportunity, don’t fire me!”
Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin were speechless. Excelling in housework and social life sounded normal, but what did he mean by warming the bed? Did Xia Zhetao get so frightened that he had lost his mind?
Xia Zhetao saw that Mu Tingfeng did not give him any response after he had been howling for a long time. His eyes flickered slightly, and he decisively chose to change his target. He let go of Mu Tingfeng’s thigh and turned to lunge at Zhao Youlin. He reached out and tried to hug Zhao Youlin’s thigh.
Zhao Youlin’s eyes flickered. With a kick, she directly stepped on Xia Zhetao’s face, isolating him a meter away from her.
After being kicked away by Zhao Youlin, Xia Zhetao returned to his senses a little. When he realized that he had actually attempted to hug the former Mrs. President’s thigh in front of his boss, he immediately shivered with fear.
Fortunately… Fortunately, he failed to hug her. Otherwise, he would not live to see another day!
Xia Zhetao lightly heaved a sigh and turned to beg Zhao Youlin. “Ms. Zhao, please talk to President Mu for me. I have a bedridden eighty-year-old mother who has high blood pressure and high blood sugar. I have a three-year-old son who needs to be fed and is always starving. And apart from them, I have a few unfilial siblings who are not capable of taking care of themselves. Not only do they indulge in gambling, drinking, and women, they keep asking me for money too. If I don’t give them money, they would be hunted by their creditors, and they might lose their arms or legs. They would be sold to someplace where underage children are not allowed to visit and be tortured by some perverts. My whole family relies on me to support them. I really can’t afford to lose this job!”
Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin were speechless.
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth twitched a few times. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a look of contempt, “Secretary Xia, I think you have been watching too many period dramas lately.”
The expression on Xia Zhetao’s face stiffened immediately. Then, he looked up at Zhao Youlin, with an expression that was accusing her that she was heartless, unjust, and unreasonable.
Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes. Then, she bent down to meet his eyes and teased him, “You have an eighty-year-old mother? Secretary Xia, you look like you are just over 20 years old. Yet you have an eighty-year-old mother at this age? Your mom is amazing. She could still give birth to you when she was sixty years old, wow.”
“Oh…”
“You have a three-year-old son who needs to be fed? If I remember correctly, you should still be single, Secretary Xia. You don’t even have a girlfriend, let alone a wife. Yet you actually have a three-year-old son? Should I say that you are gifted, and you gave birth to a child on your own without a woman?”
“Oh…”
“Also, a few unfilial siblings who indulge in gambling, drinking, women, and are not capable of taking care of themselves?” Zhao Yulin paused for a moment. And under Xia Zhetao’s dumbfounded gaze, she pulled a devilish smile and whispered, “Such siblings who will only drag you down are a waste of food even if you keep them around. Just let them lose their arms or legs and be sold to a place where it is inappropriate for underage children. Let them be tortured by some perverts.”
Xia Zhetao was powerless to fight back against the powerful Zhao Youlin and was defeated in a few words.
In a helpless manner, Xia Zhetao had to put all his hope on his many years of friendship with Mu Tingfeng.
Unfortunately, Xia Zhetao apparently had forgotten one thing. The current Mu Tingfeng in front of him was no longer the wise and ruthless big boss of Mu Feng Group.
President Mu, who had been wandering for a long time on the path of courting his wife, had subliminally evolved in the direction of becoming a hen-pecked husband. He had started to… cater to whatever his wife said.
“You might even hold me back sometimes? Well, it looks like you do know yourself well.” Mu Tingfeng snorted coldly. He turned his head to look at Zhao Youlin and said meaningfully, “I did not think it was necessary to listen to what you suggested just now, but now I actually think you have got a point.”
Zhao Yulin nodded in satisfaction and agreed. “I think so too.”
Xia Zhetao was speechless.
