Chapter 11 : Description

  • But Ji You didn't hear a word, and during the long wait, she felt extremely tormented, facing the woman's murderous gaze while listening to Huo Ciyi's explanation.
  • Finally, when he finished speaking, she seized the opportunity to leave: "Mr. Huo, I understand now. I will go back and work seriously."
  • "Understood? Alright, explain it to me so I can listen." Huo Ciyi's eyes looked at her, his expression calm.
  • Suddenly, Ji You's scalp tingled. She didn't even know what he had just explained!
  • "I..." She could even see a hint of mockery in Huo Ciyi's eyes. Was this man playing with her? He clearly didn't want her to leave, but if she stayed, she might as well kill her.
  • Her mind spun rapidly, and she suddenly changed the subject.
  • "Mr. Huo, the guest is here. It's better for you to chat first, I won't disturb..."
  • Before she could finish her sentence, Huo Ciyi interrupted her, his eyes showing a hint of amusement. "You are more important."
  • "???"
  • Ji You was confused. She was more important?
  • This man's words were ambiguous, and it would definitely make the woman sitting in front of her on the sofa misunderstand. So Ji You quickly added, "Hehe, Mr. Huo, since work is your priority, then let's continue..."
  • She awkwardly smiled, her mouth corners stiff and sore.
  • This explanation lasted for three hours!
  • Huo Ciyi must be crazy. He was deliberately avoiding being with that woman!
  • Ji You walked out of the CEO's office with her notebook, and her tense body suddenly relaxed. She turned around and took a glance. Mu Yuyan was squinting her eyes, looking unkindly in her direction.
  • It's over...
  • Now this woman sees her as a thorn in her side.
  • In the office, only two people were left.
  • Huo Ciyi quickly stood up and walked towards the office chair, taking a seat.
  • His broad figure occupied the chair completely, leaning slightly forward. He opened a drawer, took out a business notebook, and placed a photo on the table.
  • Mu Yuyan, who had finally seen Ji You leave, stood up and approached. She saw the photo placed on the table by Huo Ciyi.
  • Her eyes suddenly contracted. She had seen this girl in the photo countless times!
  • It had almost become her nightmare!
  • "Ciyi..." Mu Yuyan didn't know what Huo Ciyi wanted to do, nor did she know how he had this photo.
  • Huo Ciyi's broad back leaned against the chair, his legs crossed. His gaze fell on the photo on the table, gradually becoming deep, and then gentle.
  • "I know about the incident when Yuyan disappeared that year." Huo Ciyi looked up at Mu Yuyan, the warmth in his eyes quickly disappearing, almost making people think it was an illusion.
  • Mu Yuyan's hands hanging by her sides tightened. "This matter is a taboo in the Mu family..."
  • "Yes, don't worry, I won't publicize it." Huo Ciyi said.
  • Mu Yuyan had disappeared when she was young and had not been found to this day. Mrs. Mu was heartbroken, so the Mu family found a substitute, which was the current Mu Yuyan.
  • The more she looked at the woman in front of her, the more she resembled the person in the photo.
  • Mu Yuyan's appearance was similar to the young Mu Yuyan, but she didn't know what the missing Mu Yuyan looked like now...
  • "Ciyi, how did you get this photo?" She asked tentatively, without any confidence.
  • This photo was posted on Mrs. Mu's bedside in the Mu family. Every time, Mrs. Mu would show her this photo and say that she looked similar to the young Mu Yuyan.
  • In the Mu family, everyone except Mrs. Mu knew that she was a substitute, but Mr. Mu ordered her not to reveal it!
  • She now detested Mu Yuyan even more, and even more so, she detested Mrs. Mu for telling her about her childhood.
  • She hated why she wasn't the real Mu Yuyan and why she wasn't born into such a wealthy family.
  • "No need to wait until tonight, let's go now." Huo Ciyi stood up and picked up the photo from the table, placing it in the inner pocket of his suit jacket. He walked quickly towards the office door.
  • Mu Yuyan couldn't understand the situation and hurriedly followed.
  • Half an hour later...
  • Inside the Ning residence.
  • Mu Yuyan saw Mrs. Mu sitting on the side and quickly ran over, obediently hugging Mrs. Mu's arm. "Mom, I'm back."
  • "Look at you, just came back and already running around."
