After Mu Anhan stayed busy in the office for a while more, she finally got ready to get off work and go have dinner with Gu Xiaozhan.

During that time, she also got a message from Xue Xiangtong, asking if she was doing okay.

Mu Anhan replied saying she was great and told her not to worry.

Miao Feishuang hadn’t contacted her, but she believed Miao Feishuang was a smart woman.

By the time Mu Anhan reached the underground parking lot, Tao Kai was already being very attentive, opening the car door for her. "Madam, please!"

As soon as the door opened, Mu Anhan could feel the low air pressure inside the car, colder than the dead of winter.

Mu Anhan wasn’t afraid of him at all. She bent down, got into the car, and sat down, all calm and composed.

Tao Kai automatically raised the partition, cutting off the world in front from the one behind.

He really didn’t want to turn into a punching bag. Mr. Gu was in a very bad mood right now.

Gu Xiaozhan turned his head, watching her get in the car all unruffled. Facing him, she didn’t look the slightest bit guilty, actually looked quite bold and brash!

Of course, she also had no intention of talking to him.

As soon as she got in, she grabbed her phone to deal with the stuff she hadn’t finished at the office.

"So I taught my disciple so well she’s now starving her master?" With her skills, she could totally go solo.

She could run her own business all on her own, no need to keep working in his company.

He had to admit, Gu Xiaozhan had taught Mu Anhan a lot of things, and she did seriously call him, "Master, I won’t let you starve."

That one "Master" actually soothed Gu Xiaozhan’s temper a little. "Enough, whatever it is, deal with it tomorrow."

"All CEOs are this busy." Mu Anhan only glanced at him faintly. "The wise don’t fall in love, they build a beautiful China instead. Double Eleven discounts are coming—let all the singles chop their hands successfully. It’s time for us to stock up our capital again."

Gu Xiaozhan: "..." He was being serious with her, and she hit him back with memes!

That was about to piss him off all over again!

If she kept getting along with him like this, he might as well join the singles too!

He wasn’t just chopping hands, he was chopping his feet!

Gu Xiaozhan’s big hand covered her small hand, the meaning very obvious: after-work hours, no more working.

She couldn’t just ignore the feelings of the person beside her, could she?

"Why are you suddenly treating me to dinner?" Mu Anhan put her phone away and faced him head-on.

"We’re a married couple. Me treating you to dinner isn’t the most normal thing ever?" Gu Xiaozhan said, perfectly justified.

Mu Anhan gave a light smile. "Isn’t it a Hongmen Banquet?"

Gu Xiaozhan: "..." Knew it, she was still mad at him about that ’Hongmen Banquet’ dinner with Pei Zhe!

"Is it or not, we’ll see when we get there." He snorted coldly.

Mu Anhan didn’t ask any more. She leaned back in the seat, planning to close her eyes for a bit to rest.

Who knew the man’s big hand would directly land on her belly.

Mu Anhan raised her hand and slapped his, signaling him to let go.

"They’re my kids. Why can’t I touch them?" Gu Xiaozhan glared at her fiercely.

Mu Anhan said breezily, "The babies said they don’t want you touching them."

"They’re talking, so how come I can’t hear anything?" The man was so annoyed he actually laughed.

Mu Anhan swept him a haughty glance. "Because you’re not listening with your heart."

Gu Xiaozhan: "..."

"Babies, be good, okay? Daddy’s taking you out for a big feast."

Mu Anhan watched him lower his noble head, practically pressing it against her belly as he spoke.

His breath seeped through the fabric and fell warm on her lower stomach.

She didn’t even know why, but in that instant she was really moved.
