Be Gentle, My Master

Chapter 743: Uncle I'm Not Here to Play_1

  • Next Chapter

The meeting run by Mu Xiaojiu took a solid two hours.

By five thirty, he returned to his office, followed by Mu Lingchuan and Ye Hua.

When he came back, Baili Xia was still reviewing the documents.

She had made her way through the stack that had accumulated on her desk, only the final one remained.

“Uncle.” Seeing Mu Xiaojiu return, she unconsciously stood up to greet him.

Truthfully, in the Mu Group, Uncle is everything.

Everyone greeted him this way, she wasn’t sure if she was influenced by the others.

Seeing him return, she naturally stood up.

“Have you finished all of these?” Mu Xiaojiu sat down at his desk and glanced at the rearranged documents.

“I’ve finished reviewing them. The ones on this side are good, but those here have a few minor issues, I’m not sure if they need to be changed.”

Baili Xia glanced at Mu Lingchuan and Ye Hua, who had already seated themselves on a nearby sofa.

“Explain it to me.” Mu Xiaojiu put down his notebook.

“Here,” Baili Xia presented the problematic documents to him one by one.

The problems were actually not big, but she was thorough, not letting any small error pass.

However, one had to commend the efficiency of Uncle’s subordinates.

Among so many documents, only a small portion had issues.

Mu Xiaojiu simply asked Ye Hua to have someone print out new versions according to Baili Xia’s revisions.

Afterward, he picked up his pen and signed his name directly.

Seeing him do this, Baili Xia felt somewhat uneasy: “Uncle, aren’t you going to take another look?”

“No need, I trust you.” He replied calmly.

With swift movements, he signed his name without even looking, giving way his signature so casually.

“It seems that Uncle’s other assistants may be out of a job.”

Sitting on the sofa, Mu Lingchuan took the tea offered by Ye Hua, glanced at Baili Xia, and leisurely began to taste it.

Baili Xia’s face flushed slightly, she pursed her lips: “I’m just helping out, there’s a lot I still don’t understand.”

“From what I can see, with your capabilities, being just a helper is quite a waste.”

“A helper?” Mu Xiaojiu still signing documents, frowned slightly, and looked up at him.

It took Mu Lingchuan a moment to realize he had accidentally spilled the beans and quickly put on a smiling face.

With a laugh, he said: “Just a joke, I was thinking about having this girl as an assistant around.”

Mu Xiaojiu paid no mind and continued signing.

But Baili Xia covertly rolled her eyes at Mu Lingchuan, a look of contempt crossing her face.

The jerk of a brother dared to tease her only in private.

In front of uncle, he turned into a docile little sheep immediately.

“By the way, Uncle, wasn’t the Miss of the Sima Family supposed to visit today? She should have been here by now, right?” Mu Lingchuan asked suddenly.

Mu Xiaojiu glanced at his watch, it was past five thirty.

She should indeed have arrived.

Knowing he had a meeting today, the assistant probably stopped her in advance.

He dialed an internal line, and casually asked: “Has Miss Sima arrived?”

“Yes, Mr. Xiaojiu. May I let her in now?” The assistant’s gentle voice came over immediately.

“Mm.” Mu Xiaojiu acknowledged, then turned to Baili Xia, “Go and play with Lingchuan.”

“I didn’t come here to play.” Baili Xia glanced at him, spun on her heel and went to Mu Lingchuan.

In her heart, though, there was a hint of curiosity.

Miss Sima…

Who is this?

And what is her relationship to Sima Liuli?
