My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 885: Mu Yiqing’s Confession
Chapter 885: Chapter 885: Mu Yiqing’s Confession
"Not bad progress?" When Mu Yiqing heard it, she immediately became extremely happy. She thought, as expected of Brother Xiao, everything went very smoothly once he took action.
"What exactly happened?" Then, Mu Yiqing asked. She was very curious about how Xiao Zheng managed to do it.
"It was mostly luck." Xiao Zheng smiled and briefly recounted what happened. Mu Yiqing listened in amazement.
"Brother Xiao, you are so amazing." Finally, Mu Yiqing’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Xiao Zheng with an admiring gaze.
After all, it was a big fire scene!
If it were an ordinary person, they would never dare to rush in and successfully rescue someone.
"Just so-so."
In truth, Xiao Zheng felt quite gratified by such admiring looks. He smiled lightly.
"By the way, Brother Xiao, since things have nearly succeeded, why don’t we celebrate?" Then, Mu Yuqing suggested.
"No problem." Xiao Zheng agreed immediately.
Looking at the sky, it was already approaching evening. The two discussed it and decided to dine at the hotel.
They didn’t go to the restaurant but stayed in the room, rang the bell, and ordered some food. About half an hour later, the meal was delivered.
"Brother Xiao, if it weren’t for you, we might not have succeeded in meeting that boss. So, this drink is for you."
Mu Yiqing’s face was flushed. She picked up her glass and toasted Xiao Zheng.
"Alright."
Xiao Zheng naturally did not refuse, drinking it all in one go.
They were drinking red wine, which wasn’t that strong. It was quite easy to drink.
The two quickly started chatting enthusiastically.
The topics were many.
Mu Yiqing had an admiring attitude toward Xiao Zheng. During the celebration, she humbly sought his advice on several company management-related matters.
Xiao Zheng answered all of them in detail. As someone who single-handedly founded the enormous organization Sky Net, Xiao Zheng’s abilities far surpassed those small bosses, capable of offering high-level insights for any question.
Mu Yiqing greatly benefited from this.
Unknowingly, one to two hours had passed.
Xiao Zheng was fine.
Mu Yiqing, however, was slightly tipsy.
"Brother Xiao..." Suddenly, her eyes, like dark pebbles touched by water, sparkled as she stared intently at Xiao Zheng.
"What’s the matter?"
Xiao Zheng felt a bit flustered under her gaze.
"Brother Xiao, there are rumors in the company saying... saying you and President Leng are a couple. Is it true?"
Mu Yiqing couldn’t help but ask.
"Why are you asking this?" Xiao Zheng was taken aback but then smiled.
"Just answer me." Normally shy in front of Xiao Zheng, Mu Yiqing was now full of courage as she demanded.
"Um..."
Xiao Zheng was momentarily at a loss for words.
He himself was a bit confused.
What exactly was his relationship with Leng Ruobing?
In name, they were married, but it was just a contractual agreement, which didn’t mean much.
To say they were a couple...
That wasn’t true either.
He hadn’t confirmed any relationship with her.
If anything, there was a bit of subtle ambiguity between them, a layer of window paper that was hard to tear through.
"We... have no relationship." After thinking, Xiao Zheng sighed lightly and said calmly.
"Really?" Mu Yiqing’s eyebrows revealed a hint of joy.
Then, she suddenly moved closer to Xiao Zheng, wrapped her arms around his neck, and stared into his eyes.
"I like you."
Mu Yiqing said softly, "I like you, Brother Xiao."
"Hm?"
Mu Yiqing’s sudden action startled Xiao Zheng. For a moment, he didn’t know how to react.
Damn it, what’s going on?
He had only ever considered Mu Yiqing as a little sister.
"Um... Xiao Mu." Xiao Zheng smiled wryly, "There may be a misunderstanding."
"I’m not mistaken." Perhaps because she drank, Mu Yiqing was especially bold, shaking her head firmly, "Brother Xiao, I really like you! Even if you don’t like me, I still like you, and it’ll never change."
"It’s not like that." Xiao Zheng shook his head, "You might not know, but I already have a woman, Mo Anna, so I can’t accept you. Understand?"
On normal occasions, Xiao Zheng might appear carefree, but when it came to matters of the heart, he was serious and never deceptive.
So, he couldn’t accept Mu Yiqing.
"Really?"
Mu Yiqing’s face turned pale.
Earlier, she had vaguely sensed from her intuition that there might be something special between Xiao Zheng and Mo Anna.
Hearing Xiao Zheng’s admission now, Mu Yiqing felt a sudden sense of despair, realizing the man she liked was already taken.
"I don’t mind." However, after a moment, Mu Yiqing looked at Xiao Zheng again, "Brother Xiao, I don’t mind. How many women you have doesn’t matter. As long as you love me, I... I will be content."
Mu Yiqing wasn’t willing to give up.
How could she willingly share love?
But.
She knew that a man as outstanding as Xiao Zheng couldn’t possibly have only one woman.
Yet she loved Xiao Zheng too deeply.
She did not want to give up.
So... she could only accept it.
For Mu Yiqing, being with Xiao Zheng brought more happiness than anything else. Even if she had to share him and suffer in silence, she wouldn’t regret it.
"You... you’re a fool."
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng was moved, feeling Mu Yiqing’s deep affection. He sighed softly, touched her head, and said, "You won’t be happy this way."
"And I can’t accept it either."
Xiao Zheng was rational.
He knew if he lost his mind and accepted Mu Yiqing, it would hurt many women.
He couldn’t do that.
"Brother Xiao, don’t worry. I’ll explain everything to Sister Anna." Mu Yiqing said calmly, "I won’t make it difficult for you."
"Silly girl, that’s not the point." Xiao Zheng tried to explain, helplessly.
"Don’t say anything." At this moment, Mu Yiqing covered Xiao Zheng’s mouth. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him.
