Chapter 122 You Must Work Hard to Fall in Love

Mu Jiu Chen was still at the company, and Steward Hong had called Xiao Fan's phone so many times it was about to explode.

After answering another call, Xiao Fan scurried into the office.

Mu Jiu Chen sat casually in his swivel chair, his long, jade-like fingers occasionally touching his chin, tilting his head back as he chuckled foolishly. Xiao Fan felt as though he had lost his mind; seeing his master so gentle made him truly unaccustomed to it.

Xiao Fan had been watching his master like this for an entire day.

It was truly remarkable that Master had triplets, but Master, you shouldn't be so silly.

"Master, the Old Master said that if you don't go home tonight, you should never return." Is it that difficult to go home and show your face?

Mu Jiu Chen didn't even spare him a glance.

"Tell the Old Master to come up with another excuse. This excuse has been used too many times, and it doesn't work on me anymore."

Xiao Fan looked troubled, "The Old Master also said that if you don't go home tonight, he'll go and capture your children."

Mu Jiu Chen stood up abruptly, looking at him sharply, "Did you tell the Old Master?"

Xiao Fan shook his head quickly, "No, Master. You instructed me not to tell anyone yet. How would I dare to say anything?"

Mu Jiu Chen narrowed his eyes, tilting his head slightly to look out the window, and said in a low voice, "Then what's going on with this Old Master?"

Xiao Fan fell silent. How would he know what was going on?

Mu Jiu Chen stood up, picked up his phone, and said, "Let's go. We mustn't anger the Old Master too much."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan's face immediately lit up with a smile, "Master, yes, yes, the car is ready. The Old Master will be very happy to see you return."

"Yes! Have you found any trace of Jiang Shuo?" Mu Jiu Chen remembered that this matter had not yet been resolved.

Jiang Shuo was a potential danger.

Xiao Fan shook his head slightly, "Master, Jiang Shuo is very clever. He knows that this is currently a sensitive period and hasn't shown himself. However, Jiang Xing Yu and Meng Yuan have gone to Modu to investigate Jiang Shuo's affairs. If Master wants Miss Jiang to be moved, you must investigate what Jiang Shuo did back then before Jiang Xing Yu does!"

Mu Jiu Chen said as he walked, "Aren't you investigating? Don't you have confidence?"

Xiao Fan's expression was somewhat unsightly, "Miss Meng Yuan is Miss Jiang's best friend and a very capable private detective. Moreover, Jiang Xing Yu also understands some of the events from back then. Our people are at a disadvantage in this regard, and I'm afraid it won't be that easy."

Mu Jiu Chen paused his steps, glanced at him, and said with extreme coldness, "You say it's not easy?"

Xiao Fan's hairs stood on end instantly. He immediately lowered his head, "Master, it's truly not easy. However, Liu Fei's mouth can be pried open with money. I'll go and try personally tomorrow."

Mu Jiu Chen nodded slightly, "Give me one day to get Liu Fei to talk. I must know Nuan Nuan's background. Jiang Shuo must have had some conspiracy back then."

"Master, we already know Liu Fei and her son's whereabouts. I will personally take the money there tomorrow, and I can definitely get her to talk." Da Feng Novel Network.

"Yes!" Mu Jiu Chen nodded slightly.

"Oh! Did I arrive just in time?" Li Qing Shuo, dressed in a white suit, had a dissolute and unrestrained smile on his handsome face.

Mu Jiu Chen glanced at him, his hands in his pockets, his demeanor casual, and his tone unhurried, "Where are you rushing off to?"

Li Qing Shuo's lips curved slightly, "To your family banquet. I figured you definitely wouldn't have gone, so I knew I'd run into you here. Look, I'm more accurate than a fortune teller."

Xiao Fan looked at him and smiled playfully, "Brother Li, what are you going there for? What if those ladies surround you? With your dashing and romantic personality, you'll definitely steal the spotlight."

Li Qing Shuo glanced at Mu Jiu Chen and chuckled, "With your Master Jiu here, I don't have that much charm. The young ladies of Jinshi like your Master Jiu. What am I? I'm even living in your Master's house now?"

Mu Jiu Chen silently glanced at him, saying nothing. He knew he was freeloading, so why hadn't he moved out yet?

Li Qing Shuo looked at Mu Jiu Chen's resentful gaze, having seen through his little thoughts long ago. He remembered Jiang Nuan's misunderstanding and, belatedly realizing he hadn't teased Mu Jiu Chen enough, felt it was a pity for such a good opportunity. He doubted it would ever come again. He chuckled, "Alas! Little Jiu, just say what you want to say. Don't always look at me with your eyes. I don't love you, there's no telepathic connection. If you don't say it, how will I know what you're thinking?"

Mu Jiu Chen completely ignored him and strode into the elevator.

"Hey, hey! Little Jiu, didn't you bring Jiang Nuan today?" Li Qing Shuo's eyes were full of curiosity. "Little Jiu, for the sake of our country's next generation, you must work hard on dating."

Mu Jiu Chen smiled proudly and replied faintly, "You don't need to worry about that."

Li Qing Shuo flicked his finger at the position of his heart.

He looked at him with his puppy eyes and smiled, "Little Jiu, I'm very worried, extremely worried. I've agreed to your body and actions, but I'm afraid your heart doesn't agree."

"Little Jiu, there are so many beautiful women, why don't you feel moved?"

Li Qing Shuo was someone whose mouth couldn't stay idle, especially when it came to Mu Jiu Chen's affairs. He was extremely curious.

Mu Jiu Chen replied, "You're not me, so how would you know I don't feel moved?"

"Hehe..." Li Qing Shuo chuckled slyly, stretching his neck to look at him, "Are you saying you have a girl you're moved by?"

Mu Jiu Chen knew he was at it again, trying to trick him into speaking.

He asked with a thin smile, "Li Qing Shuo, is this all you've got?"

Li Qing Shuo's smile faltered, "What do you mean?"

Mu Jiu Chen said, "It means you come to me for validation even when you don't have anything."

"Uh... When did this happen? How come I don't know?"

Mu Jiu Chen replied, "...Now?"

Li Qing Shuo chuckled, "Mu Jiu Chen, you really know how to joke. But I came to you because there's something important. Isn't Jiang Bin managing the entertainment company under your name? Meng Yun Tao's concert is in a week, but these past few days, a little singer called 'Cat Face Singer King' has appeared online and is getting a lot of attention. Several entertainment companies are looking for him. Whichever company finds him first gets to promote him."

Mu Jiu Chen: "..." Isn't that his son?

It was definitely their company that would find him first.

Xiao Fan glanced at Master Jiu, who had an arrogant expression, thinking that this Cat Face Singer King was Master's son. If he missed out, he'd be a father in name only.

"Wen Bin has done quite well these past two years. Let him search diligently."

Li Qing Shuo said enviously, "Of course. I've also watched the Cat Face Singer King's live broadcast. I don't know who his parents are, but how can they be so good at having children? His singing is absolutely amazing. Seeing his figure, he must be an exceptionally handsome young man."

Just as Mu Jiu Chen was about to proudly say, "That's my son," the elevator door opened, and a tall figure blocked the entrance.
