Chapter 382 - : Young Master Bai, Who Had Been “Working Overtime” At The Company Everyday For The Pa

At the same time, in SL Group’s meeting room.

“Achoo! Achoo!”

Luo Chenxi sneezed a few times.

“Xing Chen, what’s wrong? Did you catch a cold?” her assistant asked in a low voice.

Luo Chenxi did not seem to mind it as she rubbed her nose and said, “I don’t think so. Maybe someone misses me?”

‘Recently, the little dumpling and that tsundere has become more and more clingy. I’m actually feeling a little guilty that I have to have dinner with my friend tonight.’

“Don’t stop, let’s continue the discussion!” Luo Chenxi urged.

After she was promoted to senior designer, she had two junior designers and two assistants under her.

It was her first time leading a team to work together, so she attached great importance to it and hoped that everyone could display their expertise.

Thus, the discussion continued until 4 to 5pm.

Then, Luo Chenxi noticed that it was getting late, so she hurriedly left the SL Group and went to have dinner with Fang Ziqian.

“Oh right, Qian Qian, Mu Yichen and Bai Shixun should have reconciled. I even heard them calling the day before yesterday. Moreover, Bai Shixun also said that he would send Bai Xinxin abroad, so you don’t have to be caught in the middle anymore,” said Luo Chenxi as she shared the good news.

However, Fang Ziqian did not seem as happy as Luo Chenxi had imagined. Instead, she gave an uninterested “oh” with her head lowered as she used her chopsticks to play with a piece of ribs on the plate.

“Qian Qian, what’s wrong? Did Bai Shixun provoke you again?”

Fang Ziqian shook her head. “No, we haven’t even spoken recently. So how could he provoke me?”

To be more precise, Bai Shixun had returned to his previous state of partying every night.

Young Master Bai, who had been “working overtime” at the company everyday over the past few days, had disappeared.

Although Fang Ziqian still worked overtime every day, her supervisor was no longer around, effectively making her the boss at the company. Hence, logically speaking, she should have felt relaxed.

However, for some reason, she had been a little absent-minded for the past two days.

‘Could it be that Bai Shixun has really heard what I said to Elder Bai that day and suddenly returned to his original behaviour?

‘Moreover, I saw all kinds of gossip about the Second Young Master Bai on the Internet. Seeing him hugging a female celebrity and making it on the headlines makes me feel helplessly unhappy.’

“Oh right, Qian Qian, about that photo from last time…” Luo Chenxi suddenly said.

Although Fang Ziqian had told her that the woman in the photo with Bai Shixun on the hood was not her, Luo Chenxi still felt that something was not right.

‘Qian Qian’s heaven-defying slender legs aren’t something that any woman could have!’

“What photo? You’re still thinking about that photo? In that case, you really are mistaken!”

Fang Ziqian came back to her senses and forcefully changed the topic.

“Enough about me. By the way, why didn’t Young Master Mu urge you to go home today?”

Ever since the fire happened, Young Master Mu had become a wife-spoiling maniac.

As long as Luo Chenxi was out for a longer period of time, he would call to urge her to go home.

Seeing that she refused to admit it, Luo Chenxi thought about it and decided not to continue asking. “It’s better if he doesn’t urge me. This means that he has realized his mistake! I have my own freedom, so why should he control me? I refuse to listen to him!”

Even so, she still stood up, “However, it’s really late indeed, so we should go home now.”

“Xi Xi, what happened to personal freedom? What happened to not listening to Young Master Mu?” Fang Ziqian said in amusement.

Luo Chenxi coughed twice and forced an explanation, “I’m afraid that Tang Tang won’t go to bed, it’s not because of a certain someone…”

“Oh, it’s not because of someone who will punish you on the bed, is it?”

Luo Chenxi blushed and glared at her. “You’re so dirty-minded. You’re no longer the Qian Qian I know!”

…

It was already 10 pm when Luo Chenxi returned home and there was no one in the living room.

The little dumpling and Madam Tan had gone to bed early, so it was normal for them to not be there.

Young Master Mu would usually sit in the living room and wait for her when she came back late. However, he was nowhere to be seen today.

Hence, she went up to the second floor and pushed open the door of the master bedroom, only to find that it was quiet inside.

Moreover, it was pitch-black.

“Eh? Mu Yichen went to bed so early? Or… Has he not even come back home?”

Luo Chenxi frowned in confusion. She rubbed against the wall in the dark and was about to turn on the lights.

Suddenly…

“You’re back?” said a deep male voice from behind her.
