Ming En Corporation.

Lin En helplessly watched Zhuang Ming leave the office reluctantly. She took a light breath and looked at Zhuang Ming’s office. It had been a long time since she last came to the office.

“Are these two pots of green plants not watered? Why are the leaves all yellow?” Lin En looked at the plants by the glass window and asked.

Zhuang Xian sat on the sofa in the reception area, sipping on a glass of warm water. She smiled at Lin En. “Maybe it’s because you didn’t come, Mom, so Dad didn’t have time to take care of them!”

“Nonsense. Your father has so many assistants. Don’t tell me none of them remembered to water his plants? ” Lin En retorted.

Zhuang Xian quietly looked at her mother, who had a harsh mouth but a soft heart. She chuckled and didn’t say anything.

In the past few decades of Zhuang Ming’s life, Lin En seemed to have been manipulating him all the time. In the eyes of others, he was a wife-doting maniac and was always obedient to his wife. However, only they knew the actual situation.

Zhuang Ming loved Lin En deeply, and so did Lin En!

It was also tricky for Lin En to reject Zhuang Ming. Between her and Zhuang Ming, everything had its weakness. Because they loved each other, they couldn’t do anything to each other.

Lin En seemed unable to stand Zhuang Xian’s teasing gaze and reproached her softly, “I didn’t know what to do with your father, so I was forced to follow him! You’re just looking at me like you’re watching a show, so quickly get rid of that look!”

Zhuang Xian chuckled, blinked her eyes, and said cheekily, “I know that Mom was forcefully dragged here by Dad. It’s not because she’s soft-hearted or can’t bear to see Dad!”

“You little brat, you’re still teasing me …” Lin En laughed.

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a knock on the office door.

Zhuang Xian and Lin En looked at the door at the same time. Lin En said gently, “Who is it? Please come in!”

“Eh? Is Chief Zhuang not here?” Mo Qian, pushed in by Mo Xi, seemed to have just seen the people in the room and asked doubtfully.

He gave Lin En a slight nod and greeted, ” Mrs. Zhuang, Fourth Miss.”

“He’s probably in the big conference room for a meeting now,” explained Lin En with a smile. Did President Mo have something urgent to do? If you’re in a hurry, I’ll call him over.”

“Since CEO Zhuang is busy, I’ll wait for him here! Don’t disturb him. It’s not something significant, so there’s no need to rush.” Mo Qian looked at Lin En and explained in a gentle voice.

Hearing this, Lin En smiled and nodded. She stood up and said, “Then I’ll go out and get the assistant to make a cup of tea for President Mo!”

“I’ll go with you.” Mo Xi said respectfully to Lin En and naturally left the place.

Mo Qian watched Lin En leave the office from the corner of his eye. He turned to look at Zhuang Xian and said softly, “Why did the fourth Miss come to the company today? ”

“I accompanied my mother here.” Zhuang Xian glanced at Mo Qian and explained in a calm voice.

Mo Qian looked at Zhuang Xian’s face, which had suddenly turned cold, and he furrowed his brows in confusion. When he pushed the door open and came in, this little girl was still talking and laughing with her mother! Why was she so cold to him after Lin En left?

“What’s wrong with you? You don’t look happy to see me.” Mo Qian propped his chin on his hand and asked in a gentle voice.

Seeing Zhuang Xian’s calm expression, Mo Qian chuckled. “I don’t think I’ve done anything to make you unhappy, right? Why aren’t you smiling when you see me?”

“I didn’t smile, not that I’m unhappy! President Mo, you’re too sensitive!” Zhuang Xian’s eyes were fixed on the things on the table as she said expressionlessly.

Mo Qian looked at Zhuang Xian with a deep gaze. Since they had separated in his courtyard, Zhuang Xian had been avoiding him, intentionally or otherwise.

Since then, the two of them had become less natural and easy-going. When they spoke, there would be awkwardness for a period. Even if they happened to be in the same room, Zhuang Xian would look cold and cut her words short, just like what she was doing now.

Mo Qian’s intuition was not wrong. Zhuang Xian was indeed a little unhappy. As for a reason, perhaps even she was not sure.

Mo Qian looked at Zhuang Xian for a long while before replying, “Alright, let’s not talk about this now. I heard from Si Rong that he saw you at the hospital yesterday and said something that made you unhappy …”
