A cold glint flashed across Mu Yichen’s eyes.
He had grown to dislike Sheng Yu for a while now.
Out of all the participants in the Huafeng Competition, Sheng Yu was always particularly looking at his wife in a suspicious manner.
There was no way Mu Yichen would believe Sheng Yu to have no ulterior motives at all.
He suddenly recalled a conversation he had with Tang Tang over the phone some time ago. She mentioned that a very good looking uncle sent her big sister home. Could that ‘uncle’ be Sheng Yu?
As the thought passed through his mind, his expression turned even colder.
The cell phone kept ringing for a while before it stopped once again.
However, a few seconds later, a WeChat message popped up on the screen.
Chief Sheng. “Cutiepie, are you asleep? I’ve been really busy today as there were a lot of people at the fashion show. I’ve finally got the time now to congratulate you. It’s a pity that you couldn’t receive the award in person today. Oh, right, your prize money is still at SL Corporation. Be sure to come by and take it when you have the time.”
As Mu Yichen read the message, the last string of rationality in his mind instantly snapped!
How dare Sheng Yu call his wife ‘cutiepie’?
Even Mu Yichen himself had never addressed her so intimately before!
He turned his head and glared at Luo Chenxi coldly.
Luo Chenxi broke out in a cold sweat as the man’s icy gaze swept across her. At the same time, she was also a little dumbfounded.
Looking at the state Mu Yichen was in just now, she was so sure that she could finally push the man down today… Wait, more like she had gotten herself pushed down by the man.
Thus, why did Mu Yichen suddenly behave so strangely after looking at her cell phone?
She sat up from the bed, pulled the blanket to cover up to her chest with one hand, and tried to reach for her cell phone with the other.
“What are you looking at? Hurry up and give me back my phone!”
Mu Yichen took the chance and gripped her hand, then pressed her middle finger on the fingerprint scanner on the back of her cell phone.
With a beep, the screen unlocked.
Mu Yichen let go of the woman, opened her WeChat and swiftly tapped on the screen.
Luo Chenxi did not understand what the man was trying to do. By the time she reacted, Mu Yichen had already sent the message.
—She’s asleep. I’ll relay your message to her.
“What are you doing with my phone? Give it back to me! Who are you texting?”
Mu Yichen ignored Luo Chenxi. He turned his back on her and continued tapping away.
Luo Chenxi suddenly had a bad feeling about this, so she pounced on the man’s back and tried to snatch her cell phone from his hands.
Since Young Master Mu had longer hands, he fully extended his hand as he held the cell phone. Thus, Luo Chenxi could not reach it even after completely latching onto the man’s back.
However, she could still clearly see the conversation shown on the screen.
Her eyes instantly widened. “You, you, you… Why did you reply as you pleased? ‘She’s asleep’? You’re making it sound so ambiguous, people are going to think that I’m having an underground relationship with you!”
Hearing this, Young Master Mu’s face turned even colder.
Just then, another one of Sheng Yu’s reply came up.
—Who are you? What’s your relationship with Xing Chen? Why do you have her cell phone?
“Alright, give me back my phone!”
Under such circumstances, an idea suddenly occurred to Luo Chenxi. She reached out her hand to pinch Mu Yichen’s waist with all her might.
The pain made Mu Yichen loosen his grip on the phone.
Unfortunately for her, the man had already successfully sent one last message. “I’m her man!”
Luo Chenxi snatched the phone back and looked at the message he sent. She was so angry that she almost jumped.
“Mu Yichen, what’s the meaning of this? How dare you talk to Chief Sheng like that!”
Mu Yichen’s face was hostile. “What’s the meaning of this? That’s my line! Let me ask you this, why is Sheng Yu calling you this late at night?”
Luo Chenxi was briefly stunned. “How… how should I know? He must’ve had a lot to attend to in SL Corporation today, so he probably thought of congratulating me as soon as he was done with work. What’s so strange about him calling me?”
Mu Yichen narrowed his eyes. “How should you know, huh? How about this, was Sheng Yu the one who sent you home on the rainy night three days ago?”
