Han Muzi was furious, but the words coming out from her mouth seemed to carry a hint of flirtatious intent. It didn’t sound angry at all as she sounded like she was being coy. What is going on? I’m trying to give him a tongue-lashing!
She was furious, but she saw a hint of a playful smile in Ye Moxuan’s lowered eyes. “Scoundrel?” He seemed to recall something and laughed mockingly. “Who was the one that draped her bra all over my coat last night?”
Her ears flushed red instantly when he brought up this topic.
“Just who is the scoundrel here?”
She was mortified. “Listen to my explanation! What happened to your coat wasn’t intentional!”
God can be my witness! I didn’t do it on purpose! I’m not that perverted, okay? She would not deliberately drape her bra over his coat, although… she had already slept in her lingerie while hugging the coat close to her body. However, she only did that when she was under the impression that he no longer wanted his coat back! She did that only because she had already treated it like it was her possession. If he had said he wanted his coat back the other day, then she wouldn’t have… Han Muzi felt a little desperate as she pondered.
“An accident?” He leaned closer to her, squinting his narrow and long eyes. Every single strand of the eyelash surrounding his eyes stood out clearly. “The probability of an accident like that happening is about 0.1 percent. Do you think I’d believe you?”
She was at a loss for words. Forget it! Believe me or not, I don’t care! “Whatever. Just assume that I did it intentionally, alright? So what?”
So what? Ye Moxuan’s narrowed eyes revealed hints of danger. “Are you finally admitting to seducing me?”
“Wait! What has that got to do with me seducing you? I just couldn’t beat you in an argument. Besides…” At this point, her voice was slightly resentful and aggrieved. “If I was seducing you just by hanging up a bra, then… what were you doing just now?” Nearing the end of her sentence, she had undoubtedly lost her confidence; her voice became much softer, but her resentment and dissatisfaction were written all over her face.
He mulled over it for a bit, then replied, “Being seduced.”
Han Muzi was utterly confused. Did he mean… he was being seduced by me? She peered into his eyes, trying to figure out what he was thinking. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door from the outside.
Hearing the knock on the door, she reflexively squatted down. When she crouched down, she saw that there was a hiding spot behind his desk. Without thinking, she crawled inside.
Ye Moxuan, who watched the entire process, was speechless. After waiting for her to fully conceal herself, he coldly said, “Come in.” He took a few steady steps and reached out his hand to smoothen out the wrinkles in his clothes that were created when he embraced her. Then, he sat down behind his desk.
The person who walked in was none other than Miss Lin. Han Muzi had been gone for a while. After careful consideration, Miss Lin felt like there was something off about Han Muzi’s complexion today. She was worried, so she came over to check things out, and brought along some tasks to report while she was at it.
Upon entering the office, Miss Lin’s eyes swept across the office, searching for Han Muzi. However, she didn’t find any sign of Han Muzi. That’s weird. Where did that brat go? I just asked her to send a coffee. She’s not in the President’s office or the secretary’s office, so where did she go?
While Miss Lin was mulling over it, she didn’t forget that she had come in on official business. She walked over to the desk and placed a document on it. As she bent down, she saw the cup of coffee on his desk and felt curious. “The coffee was delivered?”
“Yes.” Ye Moxuan nodded. He had resumed his usual expression, and the aura around his body was icy. His entire being seemed to exude an aura that prevented people from coming close to him.
Han Muzi, who was hiding under the table, was speechless. His desk was very big, but it also had many cabinets. Except for storage purposes, there was only enough space under the desk for him to fit his legs in comfortably. Usually, the small space didn’t bother him when he was alone, but with the addition of Han Muzi crouching there right now, it felt especially tight.
When he sat down, she couldn’t help but curse him in her heart. He saw that I’m squatting here, so why did he have to come and sit down here? Can’t he just stand for a while? Besides, what made her even more confused was why she had to hide under his table in the first place. She was the secretary’s assistant, and not somebody who came here to flirt! However, at that moment, she didn’t know what was going on inside her head when she instinctively crouched and hid. Could it be that she had suffered a misconception due to the conversation with Ye Moxuan before? As the thought entered her mind, Han Muzi glared at him fiercely. It’s all your fault!
Ye Moxuan was listening to Miss Lin as she reported to him, but he suddenly felt a gust of wind battering against him—it was coming from under the table. He lowered his chin slightly and glanced downward. He saw Han Muzi crouching there with her hands hugging her legs to her chest—she looked like a small cornered animal. It was… rather comical.
“President, what did you think of what I just said?” Miss Lin asked. After not receiving a reply from Ye Moxuan despite waiting for a while, she looked at him and noticed that he was peering under the desk. Curious, she walked closer, intending to take a look under the desk.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Han Muzi instinctively pulled at his pants and shook them desperately. Originally, he was expressionless, but now, he furrowed his brows. This woman…
“President?” Miss Lin was walking toward his desk.
He raised his eyes and his gaze turned cold. “Your suggestion is fine; just proceed with it. Are there any other problems, Miss Lin?”
Miss Lin’s footsteps stilled and she did not move any closer. “On the whole, there are no other problems. I’ll proceed according to what we just discussed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
“Okay.”
As Miss Lin left the office, she couldn’t resist peeking over her shoulder at Ye Moxuan. Why is everything so strange today? Did something happen?
After the door closed, Han Muzi poked her head out from under the desk and looked at him pitifully. “Has she left?” She didn’t dare to make a sound and only mouthed the words at him. Seeing her like this, he couldn’t resist sticking out his index finger and placing it on her forehead, pushing her head back down little by little.
“What’s wrong?” she whispered at him. She pushed aside his finger and tried to poke her head out again. However, every time she poked her head out, his finger would push her head back in. This went on for a few more times before she suddenly realized that he was doing it on purpose. Miss Lin had left a while back, otherwise he would not be acting this conspicuously.
On that thought, she crawled out from under the table and stood up to straighten out her clothes. “I’m returning to the secretary’s office.” When she finished speaking, she ignored his reaction and quickly fled from his office.
After she left, Ye Moxuan sat there quietly and motionlessly. After a while, he stretched out his index finger and gently touched his thin lips—it seemed like her softness and her breath… still lingered on his lips. But, what were those fragments of images that flashed through my mind when I kissed her?
