In the reception room.
Dongfang Mu admired the beauty before him, and his voice softened, “Your name is Qiao Yin?”
“Yes, Young Master Mu.”
“What a coincidence, we meet again.”
Qiao Yin couldn’t help but feel confused, “Young Master Mu, have we met before?”
“Miss Qiao doesn’t remember me? It seems my looks are too generic.”
“No, not at all. Young Master Mu is extraordinary. When I first saw you, I was dazed for a moment, thinking I had seen a famous movie star.”
Qiao Yin wasn’t entirely being courteous when she said this.
She had already seen Dongfang Mu’s pictures online, but meeting him in person still gave her a visual impact. His appearance and temperament were indeed very good, on par with a movie’s leading man.
Dongfang Mu chuckled, “Miss Qiao’s beauty is also stunning, so you left a deep impression on me. That day at the market, you bumped into me with your shopping cart. So we have met before.”
Qiao Yin just remembered, the supermarket was actually owned by the Eastern Empire.
Seeing her reaction, Dongfang Mu explained with a smile, “The market is my family’s. I was inspecting it around the time it opened.”
Qiao Yin could hardly believe the coincidence, she apologized with a bit of guilt, “I’m sorry for running into you that day. It wasn’t intentional, and it shouldn’t have given you a bad first impression.”
However, Dongfang Mu shook his head, “Can’t blame you entirely. I checked out the place later and the design was indeed unreasonable, prone to collisions. We’ve had someone change the design so in the future you shouldn’t have to worry about bumping into anyone while shopping.”
Qiao Yin thought, he didn’t seem to be as frivolous as the rumors suggested.
Before deciding to meet him in her true identity, she had collected a lot of information about Dongfang Mu.
The Dongfang Family is also a top-tier wealthy and prestigious family, with a long history of talented individuals. The family’s businesses stretch across the globe.
Dongfang Mu, as the only child of the Dongfang Family, was spoiled growing up, leading a very carefree life.
From the time he came of age, he was constantly in the tabloids, frequently making the entertainment news headlines.
According to online rumors, his father had been asking him to take over the corporation for a long time, but he saw it as a chore and flatly refused. He spent money like water, bought whatever was expensive, strictly partied and played while avoiding any regular work.
But from her chats with him on crisis, Qiao Yin found out that he was actually seriously learning how to manage a corporation. He seemed to be constantly scouting for talent, trying to cultivate his own aides.
He even inspected the new supermarket alone, quietly and attentively solving issues, proving he was not just about having fun.
There was a knock at the door and the secretary walked in carrying tea.
Qiao Yin immediately caught the rich and pleasant aroma of the tea.
The secretary set down the tea set and left.
Dongfang Mu picked up the teapot and personally poured tea for Qiao Yin, “This is my exclusive Pu’er tea, you can’t find it anywhere else. Please have a taste, Miss Qiao.”
Qiao Yin picked up the teacup, blew gently on the tea, and slowly took a few sips.
Her eyes sparkled a bit, “This is great tea! I bet this tea is worth its weight in gold, Young Master Mu!”
Dongfang Mu also took a few sips, his handsome face wore a gentle smile, “It seems that Miss Qiao not only understands complex codes but also complicated tea arts.”
“Not really, I can’t compare to Young Master Mu in terms of proficiency. I have just followed my grandmother in drinking lots of tea, being able to discern good from bad is already my limit.”
Qiao Yin also chuckled lightly, “But I am indeed proficient in codes, otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to accept your invitation today.”
“I was quite surprised, I never expected that Godkiller, the one who made waves on crisis, hacked into the Shengling Group’s mobile system, and won the hearts of countless people, to be such a striking beauty. If all those people on crisis found out, I’d guess they’d start frantically pursuing you.”
Qiao Yin received his praise quite neutrally, “You flatter me, Young Master Mu. We have agreed previously, you cannot reveal my real identity..”
