Chapter 783 The Sister Who Was Shackled Because She Wasn't Sent Away (8)
Dating?
Mu Zhou found it all absurd.
She bit her lip, fighting back tears:
"Someone like you could find any girl, why does it have to be me?"
"You know so much about me and you?" He chuckled, tucking a stray hair behind her ear when she wasn't looking, and said in a good mood as he looked at her wide, startled eyes, "You and I are the perfect match."
He verified it.
She was indeed special to him.
Then he can't let go.
Mu Zhou stared at him, telling him with a do-or-die attitude:
"If you think that having a relationship with a subordinate's girlfriend is immoral and exciting, I can tell you that Huo Xiaoyun and I are not boyfriend and girlfriend. I'm just doing him a favor by pretending to be his girlfriend."
She thought he just enjoyed the thrill of the snatching and that he would lose interest once she told him the truth.
But who knew that after hearing Mu Zhou's words, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
"You mean, your relationship is fake, and you're not actually dating?"
“Yes,” Mu Zhou nodded. “That day at the restaurant, Huo Xiaoyun was being forced by his family to go on a blind date, and he asked me to help him. I mistook him for someone else at first.”
Fu Ci couldn't think of anything else; he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
It turns out they weren't dating.
He said, "How could Huo Xiaoyun be worthy of such a good girl as Mu Zhou?"
Only him.
Only he deserves it.
He picked up Mu Zhou and carried her to sit on the sofa.
Mu Zhou was suddenly picked up and let out a short scream.
She stared at Fu Ci in disbelief, her almond-shaped eyes filled with his reflection.
Fu Ci met her eyes and couldn't resist kissing her lips again.
Mu Zhou turned away, then, enraged, slapped him across the face.
Fu Ci paused, then touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue.
He gave a cryptic smile.
It was quite a novel experience.
He was actually slapped by a woman.
However, he deserved it for forcibly kissing her despite her wishes.
Her argument was well-founded and justified.
It doesn't feel bad.
As if nothing had happened, he continued speaking nonchalantly, despite the handprint on his face:
“You’re single, so it’s even more legitimate for us. You can throw away your wild ideas; I don’t have that kind of particular interest.”
He was only interested in her.
It has nothing to do with who she is or what her identity is.
Seeing that he was unyielding, Mu Zhou was so angry that she didn't know what to say.
She wasn't usually one to argue.
Fu Ci had already arranged everything for her.
He glanced around the room:
"We're moving tomorrow. There's nothing good here, so throw away what you can. I'll have someone come help you move tomorrow, and we'll have dinner together tonight."
It's clear that everything has already been decided.
Seeing Mu Zhou's angry but speechless expression, he couldn't help but hug and kiss her again.
Mu Zhou's lips were a watery red, full and glossy, making them particularly eye-catching.
Fu Ci was unwilling to let go.
He didn't leave until very late.
If Mu Zhou hadn't forced him to leave, he would have loved to stay here.
When he left, Mu Zhou acted suspiciously, making sure no one was outside before urging him to leave.
This displeased Fu Ci.
What's there to hide? They're doing it openly and honestly, so why can't they say it?
But seeing that Mu Zhou was about to cry again, he could only purse his lips and leave with a sour face.

The next day, in Fu Ci's office.
My secretary sent me a message.
Mu Zhou has moved to an upscale residential area right next to his home.
I'm organizing things now.
He opened Mu Zhou's chat interface.
She didn't send him a single message.
Fu Ci's expression turned slightly cold.
Inevitably, he thought of the time when Mu Zhou brought food to Huo Xiaoyun.
If a fake boyfriend can get something, why shouldn't his real boyfriend?
He almost called Mu Zhou to confront him.
But soon, he remembered last night.
Mu Zhou specifically instructed him not to talk nonsense at the company.
His face was sullen, clearly annoyed that she cared so much about Huo Xiaoyun.
Instead of comforting her, Mu Zhou said that when she first came here, Huo Xiaoyun saved her life and, knowing that she was struggling financially, often introduced her to part-time jobs.
Upon learning this, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.
However, he can repay the favors his girlfriend owes.
He contacted the department manager directly.
I was still a little dizzy after the manager left the office.
Huo Xiaoyun was recently promoted, and in a short time he has received a second pay raise.
It was the big boss who personally gave the order.
What incredible luck he had!
On the other side, Mu Zhou looked at his new home and the property certificate on the table.
Fu Ci was indeed generous.
They delivered the two property ownership certificates early this morning, along with all the furniture.
"Miss Mu, the furnishings here are all ready-made. Please move in first. If you are not satisfied, the apartment in the next building is unfurnished and can be renovated according to your requirements at any time."
One set was already furnished, and the other was to be renovated for her. Even Mu Zhou found it thoughtful.
The secretary had never seen her boss care so much about such small things before, and couldn't help but feel even more respect for Mu Zhou.
Mu Zhou's expression was complicated. Besides saying "thank you," she couldn't say anything else. The secretary probably understood her feelings, so she didn't say anything more.
"You're too kind. It's what I should do. I'll be going now. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything."
After seeing the person off, Mu Zhou went to change his clothes.
Everything is available here, and even the wardrobe is already full of the latest seasonal clothes.
The person who selected the clothes was also very skilled; most of the clothes sent to her were in her everyday style.
However, the texture and cut are better.
Mu Zhou chose a relatively understated outfit.
A creamy white long dress and a long brown trench coat.
She used to work as a clerk in a small company. The job wasn't too tiring, but the salary wasn't high either.
That's why she often has time to do part-time jobs.
She finished her resignation procedures and left carrying a large handbag.
It was filled with her odds and ends, such as water cups and decorative items.
Her workplace was in a small alley; it was an office converted from a regular storefront, and the space wasn't very big.
Just two streets away is the city's famous financial district.
As he passed by, Mu Zhou stared at him blankly for a long time.
This area is full of skyscrapers and houses many listed companies. Urban men and women dressed in sophisticated suits stroll through here.
The content of their conversation sounded so sophisticated.
Mu Zhou chuckled softly.
If she can graduate from university, she can probably find a glamorous job.
She stood there for a long time, unable to come to her senses.
Not far away, a man in a white shirt got out of the car.
The weather had already turned cool, but he was still dressed in thin clothes, with his coat draped over his forearms.
The cool air couldn't mask the coldness emanating from the man.
He has delicate features, with soft, gentle lines rather than sharp ones.
But he was expressionless, with cold and unfathomable eyes; just by looking at him, you could tell he was extremely difficult to get along with.
He strode toward the building in front of him.
But the next moment, he suddenly stopped.
