His Beloved Treasure

Secretary Xi was momentarily surprised to see them both, but it was only for a moment.

This was Mu Yichen’s restaurant; the two of them were his close brothers, so their appearing here was completely normal.

”Hey, our beautiful Secretary Xi got a boyfriend?”

Jiang Zhiyuan swept aside his previous displeasure and, with hands in his pockets, looked at the man beside Secretary Xi as he greeted her.

”These two are good brothers of my boss, Qiao Yi and Jiang Zhiyuan!”

She introduced them in a low voice to the gentleman beside her.

”Hello! I am Xi Meng’s fiancé, Zhong Anliang!”

Jiang Zhiyuan didn’t know why, but he suddenly glanced at Qiao Yi. Qiao Yi didn’t speak and just walked past them.

Secretary Xi just scoffed, nodded to Jiang Zhiyuan, and then told the man beside her, ”Let’s go!”

”Sure!”

The three exchanged greetings and went their separate ways.

Watching them enter the elevator, Jiang Zhiyuan pulled out a cigarette from his pocket, placed one in his mouth, handed one to Qiao Yi, and, after lighting up, took a puff before asking, ”Does Secretary Xi really have a man now?”

Qiao Yi took a drag of his cigarette, his eyebrows raising slightly, then took another heavy pull.

She indeed had hinted at it that day, saying she had a boyfriend.

But what did that man just introduce himself as? Xi Secretary’s fiancé?

Was a fiancé something that could be claimed so casually?

Qiao Yi took another fierce drag of his cigarette.

”Tell me the truth, do you like Secretary Xi?”

Jiang Zhiyuan looked at Qiao Yi, noticing his evident frustration.

And this frustration didn’t come from the humiliation inflicted by the two women upstairs, but from Secretary Xi’s and her fiancé’s recent appearance.

”How is that possible? Remember how we used to make jokes about her all the time?”

Qiao Yi retorted.

”Yes, we used to joke about her all the time, but then didn’t we all become friends? She’s competent, we all recognized that, didn’t we?”

Jiang Zhiyuan propped himself against the car and asked.

”So what?”

Qiao Yi lifted his gaze, this time with a particularly troubled look on his face.

It was like he could no longer conceal his displeasure.

”Forget it! Secretary Xi isn’t right for you anyway! Let’s just head home!” Jiang Zhiyuan thought for a moment, said his piece, and then went over and got into the car first.

Qiao Yi finished his cigarette but didn’t leave.

When Secretary Xi and her fiancé came out, it had been two hours later. The couple was still laughing and talking, Qiao Yi’s car was still there, except he was no longer outside.

Sometimes he couldn’t make sense of what love was supposed to look like.

He had never been in a serious relationship before, had harbored a crush on Jing Qing, the dazzling Jing Qing. Later, when Jing Qing disappeared, it was as though there was nothing left inside him, empty, then suddenly a girl turned up asking him outright if he dared to sleep with her.

What man wouldn’t take up such an offer?

But what after?

The girl was bisexual and had approached him with an agenda.

Qiao Yi felt he was really unlucky when it came to love.

As for Secretary Xi, to this day, he was still unclear.

Even Mu Yi seemed to think that he cared about Secretary Xi, but he still didn’t feel it.

But why did his heart feel like it was being pricked with needles when he saw her with another man, when he saw her overlooking him?

He used to like Jing Qing, watching her eyes only look at Mu Yichen, he had felt this way then too.

So, did he fall for someone again?

This unassuming woman!

All of Mu Yichen’s brothers had teased her before, and they had even considered chasing her together to see who she would choose, but in the end, Mu Yichen put a cold stop to that.

Later...

Gradually, they became colleagues who worked together quite harmoniously.

She really was capable, not only in dealing with Mu Yi, but she seemed to immediately know how to cooperate very well with whatever any colleague asked of her, including him.

She had accompanied him on several business trips, each one flawless.

But what did that have to do with feelings?

Fiancé?

Their car passed by on the main road leading out, and he vaguely saw inside the car, the man driving was laughing and talking, and saw Secretary Xi leaning forward slightly, smiling so tenderly.

Uh!

This damn woman hadn’t talked seriously with him for a long time, let alone laughed.

Talking about work...

Mu Yichen and Qin Mu were just about to go to bed when they received a call from Qiao Yi, it was already past eleven.

”Going on a business trip? Who with?”

Qin Mu, perceiving that Mu Yichen didn’t seem too happy, looked up curiously at him and heard him say, ”Impossible!”
