Chapter 285: No Appointment
Qin Xin nodded, “OK.”
Jian Xi saw that Qin Xin was about to sleep and then said, “I’ll go back then. I’ll come to find you tomorrow morning at seven.”
Qin Muxuan had to go to the shooting site at half past nine tomorrow morning. Before that, she had to send Qin Xin to Mu Ming. Since she had to set off at seven, she needed to get up very early.
Qin Muxuan nodded and agreed. Then, Jian Xi turned around and returned to her own room. In the meantime, Qin Muxuan carried Qin Xin to her room.
“Mommy, can you tell me a story?” When Qin Xin was lying on the bed, she held Qin Muxuan’s hand and asked that in an innocent voice.
“No problem.” Qin Muxuan tucked Qin Xin in and took a story book from the desk.
“There is a very beautiful girl called…” Qin Muxuan started to tell the story in the book in a gentle voice. Gradually, Qin Xin fell asleep.
Qin Muxuan closed the book and put it on the desk. Having kissed on Qin Xin’s forehead, she turned around to the bathroom to remove her make-up and have a bath.
After she finished showering, it was already very late. She lay beside Qin Xin and hugged the little girl. Then, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Next day in the morning, Qin Muxuan was woken up by the alarm in her phone. Qin Muxuan took up her phone and checked the time, finding it was only six o’clock.
As she looked at Qin Xin who was still in a sound sleep now, she couldn’t help but show a glimmer of smile.
After Qin Muxuan got changed and got up, she ordered the breakfast first and then started to apply make-up to her face before the breakfast was sent here. She hadn’t hired a make-up artist and assistant yet, so she could only do that by herself.
As she just got herself ready, someone knocked on her room door.
After she walked over and opened the door, she saw a waiter standing by the door with a dining car.
“Hello, Miss Qin. This is the breakfast you have ordered.” The waiter said to Qin Muxuan smilingly.
“OK. Thanks.” Qin Muxuan turned to one side to make way for the waiter to push the dining car into the room. After she gave him the tips, the latter left.
When Qin Muxuan walked into the bedroom, she saw Qin Xin still sleeping. Then she said in a tender voice, “Xiaoxin, Xiaoxin, it’s time to get up.”
Hearing Qin Muxuan’s voice, Qin Xin opened her eyes slowly and looked to Qin Muxuan with a confused look which suggested that she hadn’t enough sleep. Seeing that, Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but chuckle, “Time to eat breakfast.”
“Fine…” Qin Xin yawned and nodded. Then she reached her hand to Qin Muxuan.
Qin Muxuan looked at Qin Xin’s adorable look and then held the latter up from the bed. Then she walked to the bathroom. After a short moment, Qin Muxuan helped Qin Xin wash her face and brush her teeth and then brought her to the living room.
After that, Qin Muxuan sat next to Qin Xin and cut the steak for Qin Xin. The girl started to eat right away.
The way Qin Xin ate gave Qin Muxuan a good appetite. Then she started to eat with a fork and knife again.
Right after Qin Muxuan and Qin Xin finished eating breakfast, Jian Xi arrived.
“Good morning, Xixi mother.” Qin Xin ran to Jian Xi and hugged the latter.
Jian Xi squatted down and took Qin Xin up. She pinched the girl’s face and said with a smile, “Morning.” After saying that, Jian Xi looked to Qin Muxuan again. The latter had already done with the make-up. “Let’s go.”
Qin Muxuan nodded. Then she took all her stuff and left the hotel.
While they sat in the van, Qin Muxuan suddenly remembered something. Then she turned to Jian Xi, “By the way, did you call Mu Ming?”
Jian Xi looked at Qin Muxuan’s nervous face and smiled, “Don’t worry. I’ve already done that.”
Hearing that, Qin Muxuan finally got relieved. She then asked, “What did Mu Ming say?”
“He told you to rest assured and that he would definitely take good care of Xiaoxin.”
Mu Ming liked Qin Xin a lot. Also, Yin Youting had also told Mu Ming to look after Qin Muxuan. So Mu Ming agreed to that request easily.
“That’s great.” Qin Muxuan had been worried that it would be a problem for Mu Ming. Little did she know that Mu Ming would agree to that.
“Mommy, I want to sleep for a while first. Don’t forget to wake me up later, OK?” Qin Xin said that with her eyes already closed. Qin Xin went to bed too late last night. That was why she was in low spirits now.
“OK.” Qin Xin’s tired look made Qin Muxuan feel a bit guilty. If she could go back to the hotel earlier last night, Qin Xin wouldn’t have waited for her for that long.
Hearing Qin Muxuan’s voice, Qin Xin got relieved and fell asleep.
After about twenty minutes, the car stopped in front of the Mu Group.
Qin Muxuan saw that Qin Xin was still in the sleep. At last, she didn’t wake the little girl up.
“Xuan, let’s go.”
Qin Muxuan nodded and followed Jian Xi into the Mu Group.
Qin Muxuan, with Qin Xin in her arms, went to the reception table with Jian Xi. Due to Qin Muxuan’s special identity, she wore a pair of sunglasses and a mask on purpose today and also put a mask on Qin Xin’s face.
“Hello, who are you looking for?” The staff member at the reception table smiled to Qin Muxuan and Jian Xi and said slowly.
“We are looking for President Mu.” Jian Xi said that.
“Do you have an appointment?”
“Tell him that I am Jian Xi. He knows that I’ll come today.”
Hearing that, the staff member turned on the computer to check Mu Ming’s schedule for today. “Sorry, Miss Jian. I can’t let you in since you don’t have an appointment.”
Jian Xi couldn’t help but lour. She decided not to waste her time with that staff member and called Mu Ming straightly.
Mu Ming was having a meeting right now. As he saw Jian Xi’s call, he remembered that she and Qin Muxuan would send Qin Xin over today.
“Let’s finish up today. Everyone should go back to work.” Mu Ming said to everyone in the meeting room with a phone in his hand. After that, Mu Ming walked to the outside.
That decision shocked everyone. They couldn’t figure out why Mu Ming decided to leave in the middle of the meeting.
Luckily, Zhang Qi, Mu Ming’s secretary, acted very fast. She stood up and said to all the people in the meeting room, “Sorry, everyone. President Mu needs to deal with something first. The meeting would be held in the afternoon again.”
With that, everyone left the meeting room in succession.
On the other side, Mu Ming walked out of the meeting room and picked up the phone. “Hello, Jian Xi. Are you here?”
“Yes, I’m downstairs now. The staff member at the reception table wouldn’t let us in because we don’t have an appointment.” Jian Xi’s voice came on the phone.
Mu Ming then remembered all of a sudden that he had forgotten to tell the receptionist about Jian Xi’s arrival. Then he said in an anxious voice, “Wait for me, I’ll go downstairs right away.”
After saying that, Mu Ming hung up the phone and walked into the elevator.
Meanwhile, as the staff member saw Jian Xi calling someone, she suddenly felt her heart quivering while thinking, ‘Is this woman really an acquaintance of our president?’
This time, the girl had guessed it right. After a short while, Mu Ming got out of the elevator and walked toward Jian Xi and Qin Muxuan.
“President.” Seeing Mu Ming coming over, the girl greeted him immediately.
Mu Ming nodded to her and turned to Qin Muxuan and Jian Xi, “Sorry that I have forgotten to tell them that you would come.” His voice sounded apologetic.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“It’s fine. Please take care of Xiaoxin. We’ll come here to pick her up after everything’s done.” Jian Xi said.
Mu Ming nodded while taking Qin Xin from Qin Muxuan’s arms cautiously, afraid that the little girl would be woken up.
“Thank you, Mu Ming.” Qin Muxuan said to Mu Ming gratefully.
“It’s my pleasure. I’ve got a mission from Youting after all.” Mu Ming had never forgotten that Yin Youting had told him over and over again that he should take good care of Qin Muxuan.
“By the way, Youting will come here after a while?”
Yin Youting would also come to this country?
Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but get a bit startled. Yin Youting only came back last week, and Qin Muxuan didn’t understand why he decided to return to City A after such a short period of time.
Jian Xi nearly got the whole picture of the story after hearing Mu Ming’s words. When Qin Muxuan stayed in Country M, Yin Youting only came to City A once in a few months or half a year. Now that Qin Muxuan chose to live in City A, Yin Youting couldn’t stay in Country M for more than a week.
Even Jian Xi could understand that, but Qin Muxuan couldn’t.
Mu Ming looked at Qin Muxuan’s puzzled look and asked with his eyebrows knitted, “Hasn’t Youting told you that?”
Qin Muxuan shook her head because she truly didn’t know about that. “When will he come back?”
“Maybe next week.”
Qin Muxuan nodded, assuming that Yin Youting might have some business to deal with this time.
Jian Xi checked the time and found that the time was nearly up. Then she turned to Qin Muxuan, “Muxuan, we should go now.”
Hearing that, Qin Muxuan said goodbye to Jian Xi and Mu Ming and then set off to the shooting site.
Right at this moment, Qin Xin woke up in Mu Ming’s arms. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the strange surroundings.
“Xin, you are awake.” Mu Ming said with a smile.
“Uncle Mu!” As Qin Xin saw Mu Ming, she got spirited at once. However, when she couldn’t find Qin Muxuan anywhere after she looked around, she couldn’t help pouting, “Where are my mommy and Xixi mother?”
“They went to the shooting site together. I’ll accompany you today, OK?”
Hearing Mu Ming saying that, Qin Xin nodded, “Fine.” Although she agreed with him, she couldn’t help complaining about Qin Muxuan inwardly, ‘I have told mommy to wake me up when she leaves. Why didn’t you wake me up?’
After Mu Ming saw Qin Xin nodding, Mu Ming then took Qin Xin up and walked to the elevator.
Their appearance created a stir in the staff.
“Has our president got married? He even has a child now…”
“That woman must be his wife…”
