“Regardless of who she did it for, Yan Xi indeed put in a lot of effort, that’s why the auction house is what it is today.”

“Speaking up for her like this?”

“I’m just telling it like it is.”

“Are you good friends with her now?”

“I don’t know if we would be counted as good friends, but our relationship is indeed good, she is a very innocent person.”

Dongfang Mu didn’t want to keep talking about another woman with her, so he lightly smiled: “It’s good that you have friends, I feel you’re in a much better state compared to the last time, that puts me at ease.”

Qiao Yin was taken aback: “Young Master Mu, how did you know that I have no friends?”

Dongfang Mu’s gaze revealed a hint of helplessness: “Of course, I ran a background check on you. Even if I seem unreliable, I can assure you that I am very cautious and not just anyone can work for me.”

Qiao Yin nodded, “That’s true.”

“Would you be upset?”

“What?”

“That I ran a check on your background.”

“No.”

Qiao Yin gazed at him and softly said: “Given the special nature of my job, it’s right for you to conduct a thorough investigation. I knew you would definitely do this, we also discussed this issue last time. I won’t resist, don’t worry Young Master Mu.”

Her life was simple, she was not afraid of him checking.

She stood there quietly, with no particular emotional ripples. Her porcelain-white face shone with a moist luster under the lights, like the most exquisite jade in the world, tempting Dongfang Mu to touch it.

Her beauty was astonishing, and the people coming and going couldn’t help glancing at her a few times. She however, was oblivious, engrossed to the point her hair was a little messy, focusing only on her work.

A strand of hair had fallen by her ear, he wanted to tuck it behind her ear for her.

But, just as he reached out, a buzzkill voice came from the side.

“Young Master Mu, why are you still standing outside? Please come in, the auction is about to start!”

Dongfang Mu was not pleased. However, he was good at masking his true feelings. He turned his head, donned a faint smile, and said: “Miss Lu, your auction house is developing better and better, we might soon have to start calling you ‘President Lu’.”

Lu Yanxi also cheerfully responded out of courtesy: “Young Master Mu, you flatter me. My Second Brother can be addressed as ‘President Lu’, but not me. If the auction house is what it is today, it’s by no small courtesy of your support, Young Master Mu. How’s the Pu’er tea you won last time, was it good?”

“Not bad. It was indeed worth the price, hence why I am here again.”

“That’s good to hear, Young Master Mu. There are quite a few good items today as well, please come in! Little Shuang, please take Young Master Mu to his VIP seat and offer him some tea.”

Little Shuang hurriedly came over and delicately gestured for him to follow, her cheeks flushed: “Young Master Mu, right this way.”

Now, Dongfang Mu couldn’t very well not move, could he?

Only when she saw him entering the auction hall did the smile on Lu Yanxi’s face fade away.

She tugged at Qiao Yin’s arm and softly said: “Second Sister-in-law, Dongfang Mu is not a good man, keep your distance from him.”

Qiao Yin just smiled, without saying anything.

She and Lu Lingche surprisingly said the exact same words.

But, it’s late.

Dongfang Mu was already her boss, moreover, a boss with whom she deeply collaborated.

Lu Yanxi, seeing her not answering and worried she might be attracted to Dongfang Mu, quickly said: “Second Sister-in-law, I’m serious, Dongfang Mu is very promiscuous, he has a bad reputation, don’t let his appearance deceive you! Even if you really do divorce my Second Brother, you can’t be with him, he is just not worth it!”

Qiao Yin saw her worried, and answered her earnestly: “Rest assured, no man can steal my heart now. I was just making small talk with him earlier, I’m not interested in his appearance.”

If it came to appearances, no one could surpass Lu Lingche.

A wave of relief washed over Lu Yanxi: “That’s good to hear, Dongfang Mu had countless girlfriends, only yesterday I saw a hot topic gossip about him and his new rumored girlfriend. He’s unreliable. But, don’t offend him either, just be polite, he has an arrogant air of an eldest master, he won’t deliberately make things hard for people..”
