Playing with the cup in his hand, he raised an eyebrow and looked at her, silently pausing for a while. "Where did you go today?"
"I wandered around the recommended places in the travel guide and bought a few fun little things." As she spoke, she took out a few warm jade pendants from her bag and then pulled out a red box to hand it to him. "This is for you. See if you like it."
"What is it?" He took the box, opened it, and glanced inside to find a pair of deep purple gemstone cufflinks. The exquisite craftsmanship indicated they were quite expensive.
"When I saw it, I thought it suited you perfectly, so I bought it."
She had spent the morning browsing around and had searched for a long time in a specialty store before finding this gift that caught her eye.
Seeing that he had many purple shirts in his closet, she thought to find a matching pair of cufflinks to help him coordinate.
"Mm, they look great. Thank you!" He slowly put away the box and turned to call the waiter to start ordering.
Most of the dishes were from Su cuisine. After receiving the menu, he ordered several signature dishes and a light soup before handing the menu back to the waiter.
She casually brought up a topic for small talk. "Do you have any business on this trip?"
"The Mu Family bought a piece of land here to build an amusement park. It was just completed recently, and there's an opening ceremony tomorrow. If you're interested, I can take you to see it."
"Sure! The scenery here is so beautiful; your amusement park will definitely be very attractive."
As far as she knew, there weren't any large-scale amusement parks in this area yet, so the Mu Family's amusement park would surely generate significant revenue.
Seemingly sensing her thoughts at that moment, he smiled lightly and patiently explained, "I built this amusement park to fulfill a childhood dream; making money is secondary."
"Ah? So that's how it is! When I was little, I just hoped to live in an amusement park. I didn't expect you to build one; the mind of the President is indeed not something ordinary people can compare to!" She seemed to understand how important that childhood dream was to him. For successful individuals like him, money was merely a number; their spiritual needs were often more urgent than what material possessions could satisfy.
Compared to that, she probably hasn't reached such a level yet.
After lunch, she pulled him to the nearby market. It was a holiday, and the streets in the commercial area were bustling with crowds. She didn't want to drag him into the crowded places any longer, so after a quick stroll, she planned to go elsewhere.
All the way, she linked her arm through his, like a child eager to see everything new. Seeing her happy expression, he could only shake his head helplessly and follow her through the quaint alleys.
With one hand holding his suit jacket and the other linked with hers, their footsteps matched in the quiet, damp alley.
They didn't often have time alone together; at least in their previous city, she wouldn't dare to be as carefree as she was now while walking around with him.
Now it seemed she had forgotten that she was Mrs. Jiang and had also forgotten his identity, simply enjoying this rare tranquility without a care in the world.
By the time they got tired from walking, it was already past three o'clock. She remembered he still had work to do and stopped pulling him around, instead waiting with him at the corner for the Branch Office manager to come pick him up.
Perhaps busy with the official opening of the amusement park, various matters kept him occupied. Green Qi hadn't seen Mu Tongzi's figure until after dinner when they returned to the hotel.
After taking a nap and waking up, it was already the day of the amusement park's grand opening. While having breakfast and reading the newspaper that morning, she saw extensive coverage from major media outlets reporting on the event. According to reports, they had invited big-name stars like Ma Zhiyu, Lu Haoyan, and Xiao Yumei to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony—top figures in the industry.
After finishing her last sip of milk, she heard a knock on the door. Green Qi walked over to open it and saw Mu Tongzi standing there. She stepped aside to let him in. "Is everything ready for the opening?"
"Yes, hurry up and change your clothes. The ribbon-cutting starts at nine; I'll take you over," Mu Tongzi said while fastening his cufflinks—the pair she had given him yesterday.
It was a weekend, and Longquan Town, where the amusement park was located, was busier than ever. Cars filled the streets, and it was so crowded that walking was faster than driving. Every few hundred meters, a traffic officer worked hard to manage the flow.
The driver was familiar with Longquan Town and took a small road where there were few cars. Their group quickly arrived at the entrance of the amusement park.
Mu Tongzi went to the amusement park office, instructing Green Qi to follow a staff member to the square. A stage had already been set up there, filled with people who seemed to be fans waiting to see the stars.
Refusing the good position arranged by the staff, Green Qi found a spot in a corner. Although it wasn't directly facing the stage, there were fewer people there, and she could see clearly enough.
Before long, more and more people arrived, and security began to maintain order. The host went up to say a few words, followed by Mu Tongzi taking the stage to speak.
He stood tall in a fitted suit, with deep purple gemstone cufflinks sparkling. He spoke his congratulatory message in a cold and distant manner.
After briefly delivering his speech, he began the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The etiquette ladies stood in a row as several stars took turns to go on stage, and the crowd erupted with screams from fans.
Flashes from cameras kept going off. After cutting the ribbon, Mu Tongzi elegantly placed the scissors into a tray, then took the microphone to announce that Yongle Amusement Park was officially open. As he finished speaking, confetti and balloons filled the air...
When Green Qi heard the name Yongle, she felt it was too cliché. At that moment, she had no idea what significance this name held for her and Mu Tongzi. By the time she finally understood, they were already worlds apart.
Applause thundered as the etiquette ladies guided those on stage down. Security immediately came over to clear a path. Seeing this, Green Qi realized they would be leaving from this corner and quickly stood up to make way.
Xiao Yumei was the first to step down from the stage. Her long dress trailed on the ground, and she almost fell after stepping on it. She was helped by Xue Yiyang, who squeezed through the crowd. When she looked up, she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking away; that silhouette was unmistakably familiar.
"Brother, that looks like Qiqi?" Upon hearing her whisper, Xue Yiyang immediately halted his steps. He instructed Xiao Yumei's manager behind him and then ran after that figure. Unfortunately, with people all around, he lost sight of her after chasing for a short distance.
Mu Tongzi glanced at the hurried figure chasing after someone with a cold smile before calmly walking off the stage and getting into his car under security's escort.
After returning to his suite and having lunch, Green Qi was preparing to take her clothes to wash up for a nap when her phone on the coffee table rang. She glanced at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, she answered it.
"Qiqi······" On the other end of the phone, Xue Yiyang's magnetic voice came through.
Xue Yiyang obtaining her phone number did not surprise her; it was just that such phone contact between them was meaningless.
Taking a deep breath, she raised her gaze to the bustling traffic outside, a hint of bitter laughter at the corners of her lips. "We no longer have any relationship. Please don't call me again!"
Before the person on the other end could say anything further, she hung up the phone. As she turned around, she saw a figure standing by the door, and she was startled. She glared at the man in the doorway, "How did you get in?"
Mu Tongzi raised the key card in his hand. "I got it from the front desk. I'm here to check on you."
"Oh, is that so?" With a cold laugh, she stepped forward and raised an eyebrow at him. "Now that you've seen me, please leave!"
Clearly, he had barged in but still needed such a grand excuse.
"······" Mu Tongzi's expression stiffened as he came over to check on her only to be met with her cold demeanor. He lightly huffed and pushed her face away as she leaned in closer. "What do you take me for? Someone who comes when called and leaves when waved off? What will you do if it thunders tonight?"
"I checked the weather forecast; it's going to be sunny for the next few days, President. You wouldn't be lonely, would you?" She teased him with a half-smile, completely unaware that her earlier frustration had dissipated because of this serious man.
The man's expression darkened as he glanced at the woman before him who had burned bridges. His bright Eyes sparkled with intense light, and he suddenly felt moved. He reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace and leaning down closer to her. "If I said yes, would you keep me company tonight?"
"······" Suddenly realizing they had crossed a line, she hurriedly pushed him away with flushed cheeks and turned her head aside. "It's still broad daylight... I was just joking."
"Napping is still sleeping; I'm not joking with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his kiss landed softly on the corner of her mouth. Holding the stiff woman in his arms, he suddenly intensified the kiss on her lips.
The scorching and domineering aura enveloped her tightly, making it almost impossible to breathe.
Before she could regain her senses, he easily circled around her and landed on the soft sofa. Without waiting for her to struggle, the scorching aura surged towards her again!
She was pressed into the sofa, caught in a dilemma. After a bout of struggling, she was kissed into a daze, feeling weak all over as a strange sensation began to slowly ignite within her...
At that moment, the man on top of her leisurely released her, propping himself up slightly and looking down at her as she struggled in his embrace.
In such an intimate position, she could clearly feel the strange hardness pressing against her. Raising her gaze to meet his deep, dark eyes, she instinctively tensed her nerves, not daring to move an inch!
Suddenly recalling how he had tormented her in various ways before, she bit her lip and glared at him like an injured cub, a mix of vigilance and reluctance in her expression: "Are you trying to play that kind of game again?"
Every time he pushed her to the brink of losing her dignity, looking back only brought feelings of frustration and fear.
Although Mu Tongzi was gentle in bed, there were also brutal moments. This brutality wasn't reflected in his actions but rather in the endless delay of his torture techniques, which almost always made her feel like she was teetering on the brink of life and death.
"If you behave and go along with me, I won't be so harsh on you."
