Chapter 1994

Baili Xia stood by the bed, watching the sleeping Mu Xiaoyao.

She thought of Brother’s pure concern for her, and how clumsy he was with emotions.

Unexpectedly, she lost herself in thought.

She didn’t know how long she had been watching when a breeze from the floor-to-ceiling window brought her back to reality.

Turning around, she walked to the sofa and sat down.

Picking up the book Mu Xiaoyao had casually handed her, she began to read.

No matter how bad the mood, life must go on.

There’s a saying that goes well, strength is your own.

If you are not strong, who will feel sorry for your weakness?

…

After the press conference ended, the reporters left Mu Corporation with explosive news as they had hoped.

They could have stayed to enjoy a sumptuous lunch at Mu Corporation, but they no longer had the time.

Only by being the first to piece together complete articles would they gain attention.

Mu Xiaojiu strode into Mu Corporation’s cafeteria.

Was this his last meal here? He didn’t know.

Even if it wasn’t, it might be difficult for him to have the chance to appear here again.

Yeying closely followed behind him, struggling to accept Mr. Xiaojiu’s decision.

Over the years, he had watched as Mr. Xiaojiu expanded Mu Corporation step by step.

But now, it was being handed over to someone else.

The two took their meals and found a booth to sit in.

As they just began to eat, they saw a few people walking towards them from afar.

With a quick glance, Yeying immediately stood up.

When they reached the table, Yeying raised a hand to stop them.

“We would like to say a few words to Mr. Mu.”

Yeying ignored them; he had seen these people before, they were some of Mu Corporation’s senior managers.

But Mr. Xiaojiu didn’t give permission, so he couldn’t let them pass.

These past couple of days, Ye Hua had been with Xiaoxiao, so Yeying temporarily acted as Mr. Xiaojiu’s personal bodyguard.

Compared to Ye Hua, he might seem easier to approach, but he was more serious.

Mu Xiaojiu slightly raised his hand, gesturing for them to come over.

Only then did Yeying sit back down, though his gaze remained fixed on them.

“Mr. Mu, have you really decided to leave?”

“Mr. Mu, we hope you will reconsider; Mu Corporation can’t do without your leadership.”

“Yes, Mr. Mu, everyone in the company hopes you won’t leave.”

These words echoed what Yeying wanted to say, but being accustomed to working under Mr. Xiaojiu,

he only carried out orders without ever questioning them.

So even though he had things to say, he dared not speak up.

The group wanted to say more, but Mu Xiaojiu slightly raised his hand, stopping them.

“This decision is final, there will be no changes.”

The oldest manager, who was in charge of human resources, spoke up.

“But Mr. Mu, once Mr. Xuri takes over, he will surely reform Mu Corporation. Many of us old employees might be forced out.”

“This would heavily impact the entire company.”

Mu Xiaojiu looked at them, the sharpness in his eyes softening a bit.

At that moment, looking at these employees, it was as if he was looking at his own children.

He had personally led them in building the aircraft carrier that was Mu Corporation, training and nurturing them.

These employees were grateful. They cared about his interests as well as the company’s welfare amid transitions.

He had fought hard for Mu Xuri for many years, and he was tired.

Now, he only wanted to develop his Wolf Territory, dedicating the remaining time all to his beloved girl.

He… longed for a peaceful life with the girl he loved.
