To lower himself to compare himself with Gu Yan, he must have been out of his mind.
The comer of Bai Su’s lips twitched as she ignored Mu Chen’s ridicule. In any case, he had never said anything good, so she wouldn’t have high expectations for him.
She slowly stood up and composed herself.
“Let’s go.”
“Where are we going?” Mu Chen said.
“Tm going home. Mu Xing has always been a blabbermouth. Maybe she told Grandma about this. If I don’t go back with you, things will only get more troublesome,” Bai Su said as she walked into the car.
She had already restrained her emotions and returned to her usual self.
However, her mind was still a mess. She couldn’t even put on her seat belt. Her hands were also trembling badly. She pressed the lock button a few times, but she still couldn’t get it in.
“TI do it.”
‘Mu Chen couldn’t stand it anymore. His palm gently covered Bai Su’s palm. His body leaned forward and half of his body was pressed against Bai Su’s leg. He only used a little strength and, with a click, he fastened the seat belt.
Bai Su’s body tensed up.
She was clearly worried about Gu Yan and was panicking inside, but she still pretended as nothing had happened.
There was no expression on her stiff face as she thanked Mu Chen indifferently and calmly.
Mu Chen gently snorted.
But he didn’t feel good either.
In reality, he had already sent a message to Mu Xing to remind her not to spout nonsense in front of her grandmother. Although Mu Xing was naughty and unreasonable, she was most afraid of her brother and always listened to him.
Hence, nothing happened when they returned.
However, after that, Gu Yan seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth and could no longer be found. Bai Su had gone to many places where he might have gone. She had asked their mutual friends, but she still couldn’t find Gu Yan’s whereabouts.
The surgery had to be temporarily delayed. Bai Su even spent a huge sum of money to reserve a spot. As long as they found Gu Yan, they would make him come to the hospital even if they had to tie him up.
As the professor’s project progressed, Bai Su became busy. She could only divert her attention elsewhere.
Professor Guan’s design team was famous both domestically and abroad. Many of the award-winning buildings were designed by them. Those who could join his team had always been the cream of the crop.
Although Yun Jin wasn’t affiliated with the design team, she was good at marketing. Coupled with the help of the Lan family, she entered the team .
‘As for Mu Xing, she had asked the Mu Corporation for help and received a precious spot with investment as the condition.
Since the Mu Corporation provided funds and technical support, the project team was on the 16th floor of the Mu Building. There were two exclusive office buildings. They usually went in and out with the Gu Corporation’s employees.
Although Bai Su and Mu Chen lived together, they would always go out separately to avoid attracting attention. Now that they were in the same office building, they had to pay attention to avoid suspicion.
Just like Mu Chen, she didn’t want too many people to know about their relationship.
Bai Su was wearing a simple white shirt and a small black skirt while carrying a backpack. In fact, because she woke up late, she didn’t even have the time to put on makeup. She rushed over with a bare face.
Her down-to-earth and low-key appearance was really out of place when compared to the glamorous Mu family.
“Where did this pheasant come from? What are you doing here in the Mu Group? Turns out that when you’re not wearing an evening gown, you look like this.”
A familiar and shrill voice sounded.
‘When Bai Su returned, she bumped into Zhang Rong, who was looking at her mockingly.
What a coincidence.
Last time, at the Lan Family’s banquet, Zhang Rong dissed her. It was a pity that Bai Su had Mu Chen by her side at that time, so she didn’t dare to be too impudent. Yet, she actually bumped into her again in the Gu Corporation?
At that time, she was furious and sent a private detective to investigate Bai Su’s identity.
She found out that Bai Su was from an orphanage.
An orphan girl with no parents and no powerful background actually made a fool of her at the banquet? Did she really think of herself as some big shot?
‘The more Zhang Rong thought about it, the angrier she became. Her body was trembling slightly.
She saw Bai Su look at the writing room where Professor Guan was and pulled her back. “You better not go in and embarrass yourself. Can you even understand Professor Guan’s designs?”
Speaking of this, she was especially smug. She had relied on three years of extensive field design experience to obtain a precious internship.
Although she wasn’t an official member of the team, it didn’t stop her from showing off…
