"Are you very resistant to me?"
He gazed at her, his voice casual and putting no pressure on her.
Mu Yinyin calmly replied, "We are all adults, how could I not understand?"
Lu Sinian curved his lips slightly, "Perhaps you truly don't understand."
Mu Yinyin: "???"
She looked at him, saying nothing.
Lu Sinian then chuckled and said, "Get some rest early."
With that, he walked out, not waiting for Mu Yinyin's response.
Mu Yinyin observed the man in front of her, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
If this man continued with this aggressive approach, she felt it would be very troublesome for her.
Mu Yinyin did not stay in the living room, returning to her bedroom. After showering, she lay down.
Seeing the content in her WeChat group, she typed a reply.
It was her friends expressing their concern for her.
— Mu Yinyin: [Don't worry, I'm fine now, no need to worry.]
— Gu Xiaoqi: [Really? You always try to be strong on your own, sigh...]
— Mu Yinyin: [No, I cherish myself now. I need to live well so that my enemies live poorly. If my great revenge is not yet taken, I cannot die first.]
— Li Chuan: [...]
— Jiang Ling: [Well said, don't say it again next time.]
— Gu Xiaoqi: [Hahahaha... You've even provoked Boss Jiang! I'm dying of laughter!!!]
Jiang Ling never joked around; he was usually refined and sincere, so everyone rarely joked with him. But today, Jiang Ling had actually retorted to Mu Yinyin, which caught her off guard.
She sent an awkward laughing emoji.
— Mu Yinyin: [I'm fine now, don't worry~]
She didn't say anything more, nor did she mention her interaction with Lu Sinian today.
The few people chatted with her for a while longer. Seeing that she was doing well, they urged her to get some rest.
The next day.
After waking up, Mu Yinyin did not go to the company because her friends had forbidden her to. Helplessly, she had to rest at home.
And today was also the last day Mu Yinyin had given Fu Siye.
Lu Sinian did not come today, which was a relief for Mu Yinyin.
In the evening, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, her eyes narrowed, and a chilling coldness seemed to grace her lips.
Finally, he was here to find her. This man was indeed good at dragging things out.
Mu Yinyin answered without speaking.
"Where are you?" the man's voice was slightly deep.
"You can say it directly if you have something to say," Mu Yinyin's voice was also faint.
Fu Siye's expression darkened, his magnetic voice carrying a strong chill, "I don't like discussing cooperation matters over the phone."
Mu Yinyin fell silent for a moment before giving her address.
Fu Siye said nothing and hung up directly.
Mu Yinyin did not find this surprising or upsetting.
In the past, when she called Fu Siye, he would either not answer, or he would answer but hang up impatiently after a few words. Just like today, she had felt so disappointed that she wanted to cry out loud. But now...
She felt that this was fine. Everyone saved time and didn't need to exchange polite goodbyes. If they continued to cooperate like this in the future, it would still be comfortable.
An hour later.
Fu Siye arrived.
Mu Yinyin had just finished eating the noodles she had cooked and tidied up the dishes.
The doorbell rang, prompting her to walk to the door and open it for the man.
Fu Siye immediately saw the interior decor.
The setup here was simple yet warm, unlike their marital home. This place felt more comfortable.
Their marital home was mainly cool-toned, whereas this place was not. The color matching was more...
As he thought this, Fu Siye's expression suddenly darkened. Why was he making such a comparison?
Mu Yinyin, unaware of his thoughts, simply moved aside and walked towards the sofa.
Fu Siye's thin lips were tightly pressed, his sharp eyes releasing immeasurable cold light. In the end, he still chose to change his shoes and sat down opposite Mu Yinyin.
He came empty-handed, with nothing. Mu Yinyin curved her lips slightly, "You've come to discuss cooperation, but without any written contract. Does President Fu want to negotiate additional terms with me?"
Additional.
She emphasized these two words.
In her opinion, with the proposal she had presented, Fu Siye would not alter the profit-sharing ratio. The specific planning process did not need to be fully written into the contract; only the key content needed to be recorded.
Therefore, the only area he would want to adjust was—
Mu Yinyin's expression turned colder. She looked at Fu Siye and said sternly, "If it's for Mu Corporation, then it's a complete no-go."
Mu Corporation was her bottom line. If this bottom line was crossed, then there was nothing more to say. She would rather not have this cooperation than allow Mu Corporation to continue to develop.
Even if it was her father's life's work, she would not allow those people to profit from it. She could acquire it and continue to develop her father's legacy.
Fu Siye's brows furrowed even more noticeably, "Mu Yinyin, you are truly selfish."
Mu Yinyin suddenly let out a cold sneer, "Selfish?"
She was amused.
Looking at the man's somber face, as if it could drip with water, she said pointedly, "People should live a little selfishly. Otherwise, being too selfless will only lead to being trampled underfoot, won't it?"
Fu Siye seemed to be amused to anger by Mu Yinyin. The sarcasm in his eyes was extremely strong, "Do you think your past self was selfless?"
Mu Yinyin raised her eyes to look at the man.
Seeing him exuding a cold aura as if emanating from the abyss, she chuckled and said, "So, President Fu, are you here today to lecture me, or to discuss cooperation?"
Her voice was light and airy.
She had no intention of continuing the previous topic with Fu Siye.
In the past, if Fu Siye had said this to her, she would have gone to great lengths to explain, just to make this man believe her.
But now...
Mu Yinyin disdained it.
She felt even more that Fu Siye was unworthy.
She wouldn't mind others saying this about her, but specifically Fu Siye, he was not worthy of her love.
Fu Siye's expression suddenly became even more somber.
Clearly, he had also noticed that Mu Yinyin had become 'unrecognizable.'
She was no longer the person she used to be.
So, was she the one who had changed too quickly, or had she been pretending too much in the past?
"If you are here to lecture, I'm afraid I cannot accompany you. You entered yourself, and you know the way out."
Fu Siye: "..."
Seeing Fu Siye's dark gaze still fixed on her face, Mu Yinyin continued without fear, "If it's about cooperation, then we can have people draft the contract now, sign and seal it, and implement this project immediately. Nothing else is up for discussion."
