CHAPTER 1141: CHAPTER 1139: BETWEEN HUSBAND AND WIFE, PILLOW TALK 2ND UPDATE (5)

I’ve always been practicing making breakfast myself, but there’s been no progress.

On the other hand, Gu Mochen... he can host guests beautifully and cook like a chef.

The meals he makes are exquisite and very delicious.

In this matter, I still greatly admire my brother-in-law.

Qin Mu took a bite of the golden fried egg, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips. The taste wasn’t bad...

Mu Wan silently noted down... this was the first time she made breakfast for Qin Mu.

Back in the school days, when she fantasized about her parents, she even imagined making delicious dishes for Qin Mu... Of course, in her mind, she envisioned a grand feast, but that was just a dream.

Returning to reality, the first meal was actually very simple.

...

While Qin Mu was eating Mu Wan’s breakfast, Secretary Cui knocked and entered.

"President Qin, your deluxe Blue Sky Building breakfast delivery has arrived at the front desk downstairs. Should I bring it up for you now?"

"No need..."

Secretary Cui: "..."

President Qin is actually having breakfast.

Secretary Cui looked at the plain breakfast in front of Qin Mu—porridge, a fried egg, fruit salad—the simplest breakfast indeed.

Usually, President Qin has very high standards for breakfast.

Such a breakfast is never one he would eat much of...

Tsk tsk tsk, but the one made by Miss Mu is different...

Although Qin Mu didn’t say it, the obviousness of the matter, Secretary Cui naturally noticed early on.

"President Qin, you’re usually not so easygoing about food..."

"Get out."

"Yes..."

Mu Wan: "..."

So straightforward and blunt.

Mu Wan swallowed and, after Qin Mu finished breakfast, she took the initiative to say: "Qin Mu, actually, the reason I came to see you today is that our department has a public exhibition showcasing the works of our students... but we need a hundred thousand yuan in sponsorship. I don’t know... if you’d be interested in investing."

Qin Mu: "..."

Qin Mu squinted his dark eyes, looking at Mu Wan, whose speech was a bit stammering and seemed nervous. His thin lips curved slightly.

"Mu Wan, why should I be interested? Or... to put it more accurately, what’s in it for me if I invest?"

A mere hundred thousand yuan.

Very little...

However, more than the hundred thousand yuan, what interested him more was that Mu Wan had taken the initiative to ask.

"This is a public exhibition, which will greatly benefit Dongheng International’s reputation."

"Well... in that case, I could just donate in my name, or in the name of my wife, which is you... why go the extra mile?"

Mu Wan: "..."

It seems... what Qin Mu said also made some sense.

For the moment, Mu Wan didn’t know how to respond.

After thinking for a moment... she softly said: "Doing this... can also support some talented art students, making it easier for their works to be discovered."

"Sorry, I’m not a philanthropist... I’m a businessman, who won’t rise early without benefit... you should understand this principle."

Mu Wan was taken aback by Qin Mu’s answer, tugging the corners of her mouth, finding Qin Mu far more challenging to deal with than she imagined.

Dealing with men really feels a bit like negotiating with a tiger.

Thinking of this, Mu Wan felt a headache coming on.

"Qin Mu, I just cleaned up your room, made you breakfast... and you say no benefit without early rise... can’t you consider these two things a bit?"

Qin Mu squinted his dark eyes; this Mu Wan, her learning curve was strong.

She actually... used his own logic against him.

Using his own words against him, indeed... she used it very appropriately.

"Mu Wan, the fact that I’m willing to eat the breakfast you made is giving you face... moreover, this is your duty and responsibility as a wife, not something for you to take credit for."

Mu Wan: "..."

Mu Wan tugged at the corners of her mouth, so... Qin Mu’s meaning is... not considering it.

Mu Wan felt a bit disheartened, looking at the man in front of her, and said crossly.

"Qin Mu, what would it take for you to invest?"

Qin Mu finally got the question he wanted, curved his thin lips, stood up, looking down at the woman in front of him, and unhurriedly gave his answer.

"Very simple... as long as Mrs. Qin... makes me satisfied."

Satisfied?

Mrs. Qin...

Mu Wan’s eyes dimmed, and she frantically retorted: "You know, I’m on my period, it’s not possible..."

Qin Mu’s dark eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, then looked at the woman with the fearful expression in front of him, smiling thinly.

"Mu Wan, in your heart, am I that much of a beast? Hmm? I’m not interested in bloody battles..."

Hearing this, Mu Wan let out a heavy sigh of relief.

"I checked, you don’t have classes today, stay in the office and keep me company."

After a pause, Qin Mu added: "Hmm, with some appropriate interaction, Grandpa won’t get suspicious."

Mu Wan: "..."

Alright.

Mu Wan was persuaded by Qin Mu, looking at the handsome face of the man, actually thinking he made some sense.

She didn’t notice the flash of light in the man’s dark eyes.

Mu Wan told herself secretly... actually, the reason Qin Mu kept her by his side... is just for Grandpa’s sake.

Then... what about buying her sanitary pads...

If that counts too.

And giving her tummy rubs...

Well... no one would know...

Mu Wan felt that a man’s mind was as unfathomable as the sea.

...

At 10 a.m., because Mu Wan was there, Secretary Cui didn’t dare interrupt unless it was urgent.

"President Qin, the ’Today’s Appointment’ show team called again... asking if you would attend tonight’s interview alone, or with your wife."

"Together..."

"Alright!"

’Today’s Appointment’ is the largest talk show in Yuncheng City, covering politics, business, and entertainment. Having invited itself...

Originally, I declined, thinking I could attend alone, not expecting Mu Wan to walk right into it.

Thinking of this, Qin Mu’s smile grew a bit wider.

Mu Wan, however, was startled, her beautiful eyes wide open...

’Today’s Appointment’, I actually really like watching this show.

Especially the host An Man, whom I really like!

But the thought of appearing in public with Qin Mu made Mu Wan a bit nervous.
