He left early in the morning and returned late at night, and yet he still stayed over.
Ye Ning asked, "Aren’t you going home?"
Mu Yeli frowned, "Are you trying to drive me away?"
Ye Ning shrugs, "That’s not what I meant..."
Whatever, if he wants to stay, let him stay. She wouldn’t dare to offend him anyway.
Lately, Mu Yeli had gotten used to being around her, and he was hesitant to leave so soon.
While he was at work during the day, he would often find himself wondering what Ye Ning was up to -- whether she was diligently studying her script in the hotel or shooting on location.
After work, he hurried over impatiently.
To his surprise, the moment he showed up after all his effort, she seemed annoyed with him.
Really, if it weren’t for her, who would care to live in this shabby hotel?
Ye Ning was also puzzled as to why Mu Yeli would pass up his luxurious mansion to hang out here instead.
But she didn’t bother asking, assuming that perhaps the renowned CEO, who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth and probably hadn’t stayed in a run-down hotel before, was trying to experience a different life.
Ye Ning asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
"No," Mu Yeli glared at her, "I’ve been waiting for you and haven’t had dinner. Who knew you’d come back this late."
Ye Ning could only suggest, "Then let’s go out for a meal."
Mu Yeli got up and both of them left. Just as they got into the car, Mu Yeli’s phone rang.
It was a call from Jiang Yubai."
"How come you didn’t make it to Gu Xingzhi’s banquet?"
"Oh, I forgot."
"Haha, I heard that you’ve been rushing home as soon as you finish work these past few days. What, is your young wife at home impatient? I think it’s not about forgetting, it’s that you’ve been eager to get home to satisfy your own needs. You haven’t even remembered it at all."
"..."
Mu Yeli’s phone was specially designed so that you couldn’t hear the voice on the other end unless you were really close.
Mu Yeli slightly turned his head to glance at Ye Ning, his face fell as if it was cloaked with darkness.
Seeing that she seemed not to have heard, he finally felt at ease.
Indeed, he had been coming here too frequently recently, he fully realized this himself.
Mu Yeli’s gaze darkened,and he gritted his teeth into his phone as he said, "Enough talk, I’ll come over now."
"What’s up?"
Mu Yeli replied, "Nothing really. It’s Gu Xingzhi’s banquet, let’s go over and have dinner there."
Ye Ning echoed a "Oh," asking, "Are you bringing me to the banquet at the Presidential Palace?"
"Yes."
Ye Ning felt this was kind of sudden. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
But Mu Yeli didn’t give her any time to process and just took her directly.
Ye Ning initially thought they were going as they were, luckily Mu Yeli was kind enough to help her change into a decent outfit along the way.
The banquet at Gu Xingzhi’s house was attended by everyone of significance. If you weren’t important, you couldn’t get in.
But for people like Mu Yeli, they could attend whenever they felt like it. If he did show up, it would even bring honor to the Gu Family.
Actually, he would have come anyway because Gu Xingzhi invited him. Otherwise, Mu Yeli had always despised these kinds of events.
The presidential mansion was a grand edifice of marble, with two flags fluttering to one side. The guards at its gate were dressed grandiosely and were equipped with real weapons. It was a formidable sight which naturally made people apprehensive.
However, Ye Ning didn’t show any fear upon entering. To her, the knives and guns were common sight, so while other noble young ladies were frightened and dodge at the sight, she didn’t show any signs of fear.
