The morning sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The summer heat is vividly manifest from early morning.
However, the icy coldness on Gu Xiaozhan cannot be melted, even under the scorching sun.
He stepped back, creating distance between himself and Mu Anhan, and upon seeing her barefoot, he said in a deep voice, "Next time you stand barefoot on the floor, don’t bother walking."
Then he turned coldly and strode to the door.
Gu Xiaozhan opened the door, and the anxious Lie Huo outside finally breathed a sigh of relief. When Lie Huo glimpsed the shattered couch in the room, he secretly sighed; the madam had triggered Mr. Gu’s manic episode again.
This madam is simply Mr. Gu’s nemesis.
Our Mr. Gu, who is invincible both in heaven and earth, somehow chose to marry a wife who causes chaos everywhere!
"Mr. Gu, I’ll call Tang Haolang over to check your health immediately," Lie Huo said promptly.
"No need." Knowing well that Mu Anhan’s soothing is a mix of truth and falsehood, yet Gu Xiaozhan’s mania was quelled by her, "Call Zhu Chen to replace the sofa, move it to the bedroom a bit later."
"Yes!" Lie Huo immediately obeyed.
...
Mu Anhan quickly went to put on her slippers; wasn’t she in such a rush that she completely forgot to wear shoes?
How could she know that this man is so meticulous?
She didn’t understand why Gu Xiaozhan was manic this morning; after he left, she looked at the mess all over the floor and couldn’t help frowning.
After washing up, changing her clothes, and picking up her phone, she prepared to go downstairs.
As she scrolled through the unread messages on her phone, she discovered the one sent by Zhou Jingyi and recalled the timing of Gu Xiaozhan’s manic episode; no wonder...
Mu Anhan felt she was step by step walking into Gu Xiaozhan’s heart, but this message brought her back to reality.
Zhou Jingyi, this scum!
Mu Anhan quickly edited a message: [Go as far away as history is long! Don’t disturb me ever again! Otherwise, I’ll hit you every time I see you!]
After sending it, she immediately blocked all communication tools of Zhou Jingyi.
Now she couldn’t explain this message to Gu Xiaozhan; the more she explained, the more it seemed like covering up.
...
Emperor Building.
The office atmosphere plunged to freezing point, leaving everyone shivering.
Gu Xiaozhan kept his jaw tight, maintaining his eternal icy demeanor; today, however, stormy clouds were gathering.
Mu Shaochen was summoned to the office, "Mr. Gu..."
"How is the progress?" Gu Xiaozhan’s sharp gaze swept over.
Mu Shaochen felt bitter inside, "There’s no progress for now."
"No progress with the G&M perfume designer? Neither with hacker Old A?" Gu Xiaozhan furrowed his brow, "Since when did your efficiency drop so low?"
Mu Shaochen’s face burned with embarrassment from the reprimand: "Both the perfume designer and hacker Old A are deeply hidden. There are six billion people on earth, at least one billion of whom are online. I need time to investigate these two..."
Gu Xiaozhan did not want to hear this. He waved his hand, stopping Mu Shaochen from continuing: "I’m giving you three days."
Mu Shaochen felt that his death sentence had been scheduled in three days.
A knock sounded on the door.
He Gang stepped in, "Mr. Gu, the Director of the police department is here!"
Gu Xiaozhan nodded, stood up, and told Mu Shaochen, "Organize the data, provide a copy to the police department."
"Yes!" Mu Shaochen activated his wheelchair to leave.
Gu Xiaozhan strode to the conference room as He Gang patted Mu Shaochen’s shoulder, indicating he was helpless as well, and then followed Gu Xiaozhan.
...
Evening.
Mu Anhan stood on the balcony of Tianqin Villa, admired the beauty under the sunset for a while, then returned to her room to design new toys for Gu Yao and new dresses for Gu Yu.
In the past, she thought she couldn’t stand being confined at home by Gu Xiaozhan.
But now, she can actually calm down and create so many designs.
Just as she inputted the written program into the toy, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and sturdy figure appeared, silhouetted against the last ray of light.
Mu Anhan snapped her laptop shut with a "pop," "Honey, how come you’re back so early?"
