After seeing Chen Nan and the others off, Ye Fan returned to the office.

A graceful silhouette had been standing at Mufan Real Estate's entrance all this time.

Her hair was fluttering in the gentle breeze.

Ye Fan walked up the moment he saw the woman and chuckled as he said, "Honey, are you waiting for me?"

But when Qiu Mu-Cheng saw Ye Fan's cheeky expression, she replied angrily, "Humph, I thought you weren't coming back. I thought you were going off to Jianghai with Miss Chen from the Chen family. Isn't Miss Chen wonderful? She's gorgeous, has a great figure, and more importantly, she's younger than me. Also, her family's loaded. If I were a man, I would definitely go to Jianghai with her."

Qiu Mu-Cheng clearly remembered Chen Nan lunging into Ye Fan's embrace. The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt.

It kept lingering in Qiu Mu-Cheng's mind, and she had been jealous all day.

The moment Ye Fan heard her, he slapped his thigh and said, "Oh yeah, you're absolutely right, dear. I should call Miss Chen and go to Jianghai with her since my wife doesn't mind. After I inherit the Chen family's billions years later, I will come back to you."

Then Ye Fan took out his phone and held it up to his ear and said, "Nannan, where are you? Come back, will you? My wife wants me to go to Jianghai with you and be your live-in husband. Yeah, she's really okay with that. My Mu-Cheng is very understanding and is willing to hand me over to you. Okay, are you picking me up at the intersection up ahead? I'll be right over."

Ye Fan walked away as he talked on the phone. Then he turned at the corner and disappeared at the intersection.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was so angry about Ye Fan leaving that her face became distorted.

"Scumbag! How dare you leave? Fine, go then. Don't ever come back. Go and be someone else's husband. I don't want you as my husband anymore," shouted Qiu Mu-Cheng angrily with her eyes red. She was merely throwing a tantrum and didn't expect Ye Fan to really leave.

Qiu Mu-Cheng forgot that she was in high-heels amid her fury and kicked the wall nearby angrily.

Then she instantly moaned in pain and curled up on the ground as she held her swollen foot. It was so painful that she was on the verge of crying.

Ye Fan was hiding nearby, but he ran back anxiously when he heard her yelp.

He disregarded the shock in Qiu Mu-Cheng's eyes and pulled her foot into his arms right away.

"Let me go, scumbag. I don't need you here. Weren't you leaving to be someone else's husband? Go then. Leave me alone," said Qiu Mu-Cheng furiously as she struggled hard. She was still angry with Ye

Fan.

Ye Fan ignored Qiu Mu-Cheng's struggle. He took off her shoes and skin-colored stockings quickly. Then he helped massage her foot as he scolded her angrily, "Silly lass, are you dumb or what? I was just teasing you, but you treated it seriously and kicked the wall. What if you hurt yourself? You might not care about your lovely feet, but I do."

Ye Fan rubbed Qiu Mu-Cheng's foot carefully to help improve circulation as he reprimanded her.

Qiu Mu-Cheng fought back reluctantly initially, but she discovered it was futile, so she gave up and let Ye Fan rub her foot.

In all these years, it was the first time Qiu Mu-Cheng truly had any skin contact with the opposite sex, and it was such a sensitive spot no less.

Qiu Mu-Cheng's face blushed almost instantly and was clearly shy about it.

In the end, she stared at the man in front of her in a daze as an inexplicable warmth filled her heart.

Was this what it felt like when someone cared about her?

"Does it still hurt?" asked Ye Fan gently after rubbing it for a while.

Qiu Mu-Cheng nodded her head shyly as she averted Ye Fan's eyes and was too embarrassed to make eye contact with him.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng was surprised at how good Ye Fan was with massaging. The swelling on her foot subsided after he rubbed it, and it also felt warm.

Don't be dumb next time when I'm just joking. It's not like I'll run off with another woman. Nannan's just a little sister to me. I kept getting bullied when I was a child, but a little cousin always treated me well. She's about the same age as Nannan, so everytime I see Nannan, it feels like I'm looking at that cousin. So don't get jealous anymore," said Ye Fan as he shook his head and smiled. Then he gently helped Qiu Mu-Cheng put on her stockings again.

"Hmph, who says I'm jealous? Stop imagining things!"

Qiu Mu-Cheng pridefully snatched her high heels from Ye Fan and put them on. Her face started blushing, so she went back to the office without turning back.

Ye Fan immediately shook his head and laughed when he saw her leave, "This woman is asking for it."

After laughing bitterly, Ye Fan noticed it was getting late and about time to go home to prepare dinner.

But he still had to tell Qiu Mu-Cheng before he left.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was in the office talking to her employees and assigning them work.

Her cold and stern voice was echoing through the office.

Qiu Mu-Cheng's aloof bearing and sternness made her appear like a queen who couldn't be blasphemed against.

But halfway through Qiu Mu-Cheng's staff meeting, Ye Fan came walking in.

The moment Ye Fan saw Qiu Mu-Cheng, he shouted, "Darling, you go ahead. I'm going home to make you dinner."

It sounded so intimate when he called her darling.

Ye Fan sounded like he was brimming with indulgence for Qiu Mu-Cheng.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng's pretty little face turned pitch-black. Her cold and stern voice stopped abruptly.

Ye Fan's words undoubtedly ruined Qiu Mu-Cheng's aloof image as the CEO completely.

Many of Qiu Mu-Cheng's employees were already looking away and tried to stifle their laughter.

Qiu Mu-Cheng blushed right away out of embarrassment and fury. She was so angry that she wanted to smack Ye Fan to death.

Was this idiot trying to undermine her?

Couldn't he see that she was in the middle of a meeting?

How could he say such things in front of her employees?

He was simply shameless!

"Go away!"

Qiu Mu-Cheng's face became twisted with anger. She felt that Ye Fan had probably ruined her good name.
