Chapter 31 Mr. Mu, Do You Know Your Ears Are Blushing?

"But I want to accompany you," Yun Shunan looked up at Mu Qi, her eyes curving into a bright moon.

Mu Qi was captivated.

"Mu Qi?" Yun Shunan shook Mu Qi's sleeve.

Mu Qi came back to his senses, gave a soft 'Mm', and took Yun Shunan's hand.

The driver today was Old Chen, whom Yun Shunan hadn't seen in a long time. He had driven her the first time she went to Mu Qi's company.

Yun Shunan had a good impression of him.

After getting into the car, Mu Qi sat beside Yun Shunan, constantly typing on his laptop. Yun Shunan, however, was leaning entirely towards Mu Qi, admiring his handsome face.

But seeing Mu Qi's furrowed brow, looking very tired, Yun Shunan couldn't help but close his laptop.

Mu Qi followed her slender white hand from the laptop to her face.

"Stop looking, Mu Qi. It's time to rest." Yun Shunan took the laptop and put it aside.

Then she placed her hands on Mu Qi's temples and massaged them.

Mu Qi watched Yun Shunan without blinking. Yun Shunan became a little embarrassed by his gaze.

"Mu Qi, close your eyes." Yun Shunan stopped her movements and covered Mu Qi's eyes with one hand.

Her thick, long eyelashes brushed against Yun Shunan's hand. Yun Shunan moved her hand away from Mu Qi's eyes and saw that he had indeed closed them.

With his eyes closed, Mu Qi didn't look as cold or intimidating as usual. Instead, he looked very docile.

Yun Shunan was reminded of her favorite doll from childhood. She felt that the Mu Qi before her was even more exquisite and perfect than that doll.

"Mu Qi, try to sleep for a while. Work is never-ending," Yun Shunan leaned closer to Mu Qi, continuing to massage his temples as she spoke.

"Mm," Mu Qi responded softly, his shell-like eyelids fluttering slightly, as if also responding to Yun Shunan.

At this moment, Mu Qi's breath was filled with Yun Shunan's warm and clean scent. This seemed to fill a small void in Mu Qi's heart, a deep longing for Yun Shunan, allowing him to feel a long-lost sense of peace.

Soon, Yun Shunan heard Mu Qi's steady breathing. She stopped her movements.

Looking at the dark circles under Mu Qi's eyes, Yun Shunan thought she could develop a lullaby service.

However, before Yun Shunan could feel too proud of herself, the driver soon stopped steadily at their designated spot in the underground parking lot.

Yun Shunan was puzzled because in the previous few times she had fallen asleep in the car, she would wake up hours later to find herself exactly in the parking lot.

But this time, it was too fast. It hadn't even been an hour.

Just as Yun Shunan was about to ask what was going on, Mu Qi, who had woken up at some point, took her hand.

"We're here, let's get out,"

Mu Qi's sudden words interrupted Yun Shunan's thoughts.

She quickly followed Mu Qi, and they walked towards the elevator together.

"President, everything is ready." As soon as Yun Shunan and Mu Qi arrived at the top floor, a man with a belly as round as his head reported to Mu Qi.

Mu Qi looked towards Yun Shunan.

Yun Shunan immediately assured him that she would wait obediently. However, Mu Qi couldn't be entirely at ease with just her words.

Mu Qi stood up and walked towards Yun Shunan, tilting her chin up. "Don't think about escaping. Shang Palace is right below."

Yun Shunan took Mu Qi's hand and bit it. "Got it." Yun Shunan didn't dare to use much force, but she still left a tooth mark on Mu Qi's hand.

Although Yun Shunan was sure she would wait for Mu Qi here, his obvious distrust still made her a little unhappy.

Yun Shunan took a tissue from the table and wiped it for Mu Qi.

When she looked up again, Yun Shunan noticed Mu Qi's flushed ear tips.

Yun Shunan's unhappiness suddenly vanished. She leaned in, her red lips close to Mu Qi's ear, and whispered, "Mr. Mu, do you know your ears are red?"

The manager standing nearby immediately turned his back.

"I'm going to the meeting," Mu Qi stepped back slightly, took out his phone, removed the SIM card, handed it to Yun Shunan, and hurried away with the manager.

Yun Shunan looked down at Mu Qi's phone, recalling his awkward expression, and secretly rejoiced.

But what was she rejoicing about? Yun Shunan couldn't quite figure it out, so she skillfully pulled out a pile of her favorite snacks from the desk drawer.

Bang bang—

Suddenly, two knocks sounded at the door. Yun Shunan looked up in confusion. "Come in."

A slender, young, and beautiful assistant entered with a cup of coffee. "Who are you? Do you know where this is? What are you doing?"

Yun Shunan frowned as she scrutinized the assistant, who was wearing very little.

Yun Shunan thought that a stranger suddenly appearing in such an important place in the company was indeed worth being wary of, so she answered the assistant's questions one by one. "I'm the President's wife. This is the President's office. I'm… eating here."

Yun Shunan looked at herself and then popped a potato chip into her mouth.

The assistant walked to Mu Qi's desk, placed the coffee down, and then crossed her arms, saying dismissively, "You're the President's wife? Hmph. Firstly, there's no one in the position of President's wife right now. And even if there were, it would be me."

Yun Shunan's gentle, crescent-shaped eyes instantly turned sharp. The potato chips in her hand crunched loudly.

The assistant looked down her nose at Yun Shunan and asked, "Speak, did you take any important documents? Hand them over quickly."

Yun Shunan said, "If you still want to live 'well,' you'd better leave now."

"Oh, I'm so scared," the assistant said sarcastically, shrugging. Then she stepped forward as if to search Yun Shunan.

As soon as the assistant's hand reached for Yun Shunan, it was caught by her. Yun Shunan gave a slight twist, and the graceful assistant knelt on the ground.

"Ah!" The assistant cried out in pain. In her panic, she looked at Yun Shunan's hand and opened her mouth.
