Chapter 779 The Sister Who Was Shackled Because She Wasn't Sent Away (4)
The next morning, Mu Zhou packed a lunch into a lunchbox, pretending it was homemade, and took it to Huo Xiaoyun's company.
Huaying Technology is the most profitable game company in China in the past two years.
Two years ago, it was the most obscure small company under the Fu Group, but after Fu Ci, the recognized successor of the Fu Group, took over, it quickly rose to prominence and occupied an absolute market share.
As a result, Fu Ci gained even greater prestige within the group.
Huo Xiaoyun works here.
When Mu Zhou arrived, it was almost noon.
The company had a relaxed and less serious work atmosphere, so Mu Zhou easily got to the 14th floor after providing the visitor code.
This is a rest area and canteen.
Many people who don't plan to eat lunch will come here to grab some fruit, milk, and snacks, or watch a movie to relax.
Just as Mu Zhou was about to sit down, Huo Xiaoyun's voice came from behind him:
"Mu Zhou."
Mu Zhou turned around and the first thing she saw was not Huo Xiaoyun, who was already close by, but a man in a suit who had just come out of the elevator.
He was wearing the same matching suit as I had seen him at the restaurant a few days ago, looking serious and unsmiling.
Mu Zhou was stunned, the shock in his eyes was too obvious, and Fu Ci quickly noticed it and looked over.
They made eye contact for only a moment before she looked away, instinctively lowering her head and turning her body to the side, as if she were hiding from something.
Fu Ci and his group continued to approach, passing right by her without pausing for a moment.
Mu Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo Xiaoyun's attention was completely drawn to the food Mu Zhou brought, and he didn't notice her unusual behavior at all.
Looking at the several dishes with their complex preparation methods, Huo Xiaoyun was deeply moved:
"You've done so much, I'm deeply grateful."
Mu Zhou withdrew his gaze and calmly said:
"It was a package deal from Juxinglou, totaling 327. Remember to claim reimbursement."
"……Row."
When the two were having dinner together, Huo Xiaoyun's distant relative saw them and came over to say hello.
Without a doubt, he would soon inform Huo Xiaoyun's mother of the news.
Mu Zhou has accomplished his goal for today.
Before leaving, Mu Zhou gave Huo Xiaoyun a packet of hawthorn pills.
"I made this myself. It's good for digestion. You and your colleagues can share it."
"My Mu Zhou is still the best."
Huo Xiaoyun happily accepted it, and when he turned around, he saw the big boss Fu Ci standing behind him.
His smile froze, and he instinctively stood up straight:
"Hello, Mr. Fu."
Mu Zhou also looked over, his expression changing slightly, his gaze shifting, a hint of embarrassment and shyness mixed in.
She wanted to leave, but Huo Xiaoyun pulled her aside and introduced her to Huo Xiaoyun:
"Mr. Fu, this is my girlfriend, Mu Zhou. She brought me food."
He turned to Mu Zhou excitedly and said:
"This is Mr. Fu, whom I mentioned to you before. The game you like was designed and developed by Mr. Fu. He's my idol."
Huo Xiaoyun both feared and admired Fu Ci.
The opportunity was too good to pass up, and he wanted to say a few more words to his idol, so he had to hold onto Mu Zhou and not leave yet.
Mu Zhou had no choice but to greet them in return:
"Hello, Mr. Fu."
A blush rose to the base of her ears, which gradually spread.
The delicate girl before him instantly brought Fu Ci's memories back to that restaurant from that day.
She hugged him tightly from behind.
Fu Ci's eyes were deep and discerning, a subtle glint flashing within them.
Mu Zhou didn't dare to look up, but she could feel Fu Ci's gaze on her.
It swept past inch by inch, as if it were a tangible object.
Mu Zhou wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she couldn't bear it, so she quickly said goodbye.
"I won't disturb your work, I'll be going now."
Having said that, he left first, ignoring what they were saying.
She hurried to the elevator, pressed a few buttons, and waited a moment before the elevator doors opened.
She stepped into the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, and the slowly closing elevator doors were suddenly blocked by a hand.
Mu Zhou was startled, and then saw Fu Ci's tall figure enter.
She instinctively took a step back.
Under his piercing gaze, she swallowed hard and forced herself to smile.
The two stood side by side, neither of them could see the other, but the elevator wall was like a mirror, reflecting them exceptionally clearly.
So Mu Zhou's gaze wandered, unsure of where to look.
She could only lower her head and look at the ground.
With her neck lowered like that, Fu Ci, who was much taller than her, could easily see the slender back of her neck.
Fair-skinned and delicate.
It incites the destructive desires hidden deep within people's hearts to spread in a dark and unsettling way.
Fu Ci's fingertips twitched slightly, and the unusual sensation in his palm reminded him that he still had something in his hand.
He took it out of his pocket.
It is a handmade hawthorn pill.
Huo Xiaoyun had just enthusiastically handed it to him, saying that the girl in front of him had made it by hand.
He would never touch something that lacked quality assurance.
But the dryness in his throat made him eager to try it.
He tore open the packaging bag, pinched the hawthorn pill, and put it in his mouth.
The slightly sour taste bursts in your mouth, then is gradually covered by sweetness.
It's quite appetizing and refreshing.
A slight smile curved his lips:
"You did it?"
Mu Zhou looked at him through the mirror and nodded.
Fu Ci chewed slowly, his tone ambiguous:
"tasty."
For some reason, Mu Zhou felt a chill run down his spine when he was stared at.
It was as if he wasn't eating hawthorn pills, but something else entirely.
Small, non-aggressive animals in nature all have an instinct: the perception of being preyed upon.
At this moment, Mu Zhou keenly sensed the danger.
Even though Fu Ci hadn't moved, she inexplicably had a feeling of being oppressed.
Her instinct was to run away.
Finally, the elevator stopped on the first floor.
She could hardly wait for the elevator doors to fully open before she wanted to squeeze out and run away.
Just as she was about to move, a large hand grabbed her arm, holding her firmly like an iron clamp.
She froze, turning around nervously.
Then Fu Ci's indifferent voice rang in my ears:
"Be careful, wait until the door opens before you go."
She nodded haphazardly, not daring to move again.
The heat from Fu Ci's palm seeped through the fabric of her shirt onto her skin, making her almost tremble.
As the elevator doors slowly opened, Mu Zhou struggled for a moment, and realizing that he had let go, she immediately left without looking back.
Fu Ci watched as she fled in panic once again, like a rabbit caught in a hunt, his emotions unreadable.
Meanwhile, Mu Zhou, who had run far away, had already boarded the subway.
The prompt was 0001.
At this point, the favorability rating has risen to 10%.
Everything went as she expected.
Her delicate and innocent persona naturally attracts someone like Fu Ci, who has a strong desire for control.
This kind of fondness is too much like teasing and amusement when you're bored.
Even with only 10% positive feelings towards him now, he has already developed covetous thoughts.
Such affection is unlikely to last, and it's difficult to reach 100%.
Therefore, Mu Zhou will continue to play the role of a pitiful innocent girl.
After Fu Ci has slowly hunted her down and kept her by his side, believing that he has completely possessed her, he will then discover the truth.
He discovered that the fragile, innocent little rabbit he thought could only depend on him for survival was actually a heartless fox.
After all, the best hunters usually disguise themselves as their prey.
Then, she waits for her true prey to take the bait willingly.
