Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Mu Anhan was amused by him; he teased his good friend and even snagged a free meal.

”I can’t help it; when you eat with a hustler, you have to be ready to get taken advantage of at any time,” Mu Anhan said with a laugh.

Gu Xiaozhan equals hustler.

She didn’t name names; he just had to take it personally.

Gu Xiaozhan felt that she was particularly intent on defending her family.

But, Lu Yuhao is his brother; does she also need to defend him? That doesn’t make sense!

Lu Yuhao immediately chimed in, ”Sister-in-law, I’m the one who called Brother Zhan out for drinks; I’m really sorry! I shouldn’t have invited him out for drinks when his injury hadn’t healed completely. So, today’s meal is also my way of apologizing to you, sister-in-law.”

”Since you say that, I won’t compete to pay the bill,” Mu Anhan nodded. ”Speaking of drinking, once Xiao Zhan’s body is fully recovered, no matter how much he drinks, it won’t be an issue. But for now, he does need to take it easy.”

”I understand, sister-in-law, it won’t happen again,” Lu Yuhao immediately admitted his mistake.

”Everyone’s hungry, right? Let’s start with the food!” Gu Xiaozhan called the waiter.

Mu Anhan looked at the two empty seats—it was Xue Xiangtong and Mu Shaojie. These two had left and still hadn’t returned!

...

Mu Shaojie arrived at the smoking area and lit a cigarette, taking a hard drag.

He had just stepped out, and Xue Xiangtong followed behind him.

She just didn’t call out to him.

She watched him light a cigarette, his handsome face alternately illuminated and shadowed by the flickering flame.

It wasn’t until he finished his cigarette and looked over that she waved her hand at him.

”Why did you come out?” Mu Shaojie strode over to her side.

Xue Xiangtong gazed at him, ”Sixth Brother, how we interact doesn’t need to be influenced by other people’s opinions. I was worried you were in a bad mood, so I came out to check on you.”

Mu Shaojie sneered, ”Who does Gu Xiaozhan think he is? I don’t care what he thinks!”

”That’s good; let’s go back to eat!” Xue Xiangtong said with a smile, ”I’m hungry.”

”Okay.” Mu Shaojie went back with her.

When the two returned to the table, it was already filled with dishes, a feast for the eyes, and the aromas were tempting.

Xue Xiangtong served Mu Shaojie some food, ”Sixth Brother, these shrimp are high in protein and won’t make you gain fat. They’re perfect for you.”

Mu Shaojie served her some food too, ”You like oysters, especially spicy ones, right? Give them a try.”

The two of them started serving each other, showing off their affection without a care, making everyone else smile in understanding.

Lu Yuhao knew that Miao Feishuang seemed worn out earlier; although she barely moved the whole time, for some reason she kept saying she was tired.

He served her some food, she preferred light flavors, ”Eat more.”

”Can I have a bowl of soup!” Miao Feishuang’s voice was a bit hoarse when she spoke.

Everyone naturally looked at her, and her pretty face instantly turned crimson.

It’s all because of this damn man!

If it weren’t for him, how could she be watched like a show by everyone!

”I’m a bit under the weather, just caught a cold, that’s why my voice is hoarse,” Miao Feishuang explained.

Lu Yuhao quickly added, ”Yes, she even sneezed when she was soaking in the hot spring earlier!”

Aside from Xue Xiangtong and Mu Shaojie, everyone there had experienced enough to know why her voice was hoarse.

Yet these two still went out of their way to explain, which gave off a vibe of overdone innocence.

Xue Xiangtong had never eaten pork but had seen a pig run, and she was the first to let out a loud laugh...
