Chapter 1732

“Xuri, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, I… I didn’t know.”

Wen Yu was terrified, this was the first time in so many years that Mu Xuri had been so harsh with her.

Although she wasn’t really hurt, if she hadn’t dodged in time just now…

Wen Yu looked at the cane not far away, still feeling a lingering fear.

If she hadn’t dodged in time just now, she would definitely have been seriously injured by him!

Mu Xuri looked down at Wen Yu who was still sitting on the ground, his anger finally starting to subside slowly.

After thinking for a moment, he said calmly, “Stand up.”

Only then did Wen Yu shakily and slowly climb up, her gaze falling on Mu Xuri, her voice full of apology.

“I’m sorry, Xuri, I didn’t know things would turn out this way, I didn’t mean to, I…”

Mu Xuri raised his hand, stopping her from continuing.

He knew how she thought, even if it was him, he wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.

But who would have known that Lu Xuening would actually act right on the day of the press conference?

“We don’t even know what happened to that girl now. After Jiu saved her back, the two of them have stayed in the Sihai Residence and haven’t come out since.”

Their life or death doesn’t affect Mu Xuri much, what he truly worries about is that time might bring changes.

If Mu Xiaojiu’s thoughts change these days and he decides not to give up the CEO position, it would be troublesome.

“I’ve sent people to call him several times in the past two days, but he won’t come to see me.”

“I just went to the Sihai Residence personally to see him, and Ye Hua actually dared to block me.”

“Hmph, he wouldn’t dare block me if it weren’t for following Jiu’s orders!”

Thinking that it was Mu Xiaojiu’s command not to see even him, his anger grew.

Wen Yu, who had been with him for many years, easily guessed his thoughts.

She hurried to console him, “Don’t worry, the New Year break is only a dozen days, once work resumes after the year, we can get Jiu to arrange a press conference.”

“Rest assured, Jiu has been with you for so many years, he has always listened to you.

Since he has agreed, he won’t change his decision.”

“We just need to hold on and wait for the New Year, and by then, he’ll certainly hand the CEO position over to you.”

Mu Xuri shook his head, speaking gravely, “I’m afraid that time might bring changes, the Jiu now is not the same as before.”

Wen Yu gathered her courage and walked over to him, stopping at his side, placing her hands on his shoulders, massaging them.

“Since New Year is coming, everyone should celebrate happily.

When people are in a better mood, they’ll have fewer thoughts.”

“Instead of conflicting with Jiu now, think of ways to improve the relationship with him.”

“Don’t worry, Jiu respects you so much, he won’t forget the kindness we showed him in the past.”

After all, Jiu was someone they watched grow up, it’s just recently, because of Baili Xia, that their relationship has been strained.

Eventually, the relationship still needs to be repaired.

Mu Xuri glanced at her, a flicker of something in his eyes.

He lowered his head, thinking for a moment, before speaking calmly, “Find an opportunity to go to the Sihai Residence to investigate and see what happened with that girl.”

With Baili Xia’s situation unclear, he felt something was amiss.

Watching these days, he noticed how important the girl was to Mu Xiaojiu.

Only by understanding the girl’s situation can he gain the upper hand in the future dealings with Mu Xiaojiu.

Wen Yu nodded, starting to plan how to inquire about the situation at the Sihai Residence…
