Ye Xin was humming a song when she returned home; her heart was brimming with joy. However, the moment she saw Mu Chen, the flower in her heart wilted immediately. She felt as though her heart had stopped beating, and she could not help but feel that she had betrayed him.

“Huh? Why did you come back so late, Young Madam? The manager at Zhuang Ji said you left the shop a long time ago,” Sister Yu asked when she saw Ye Xin.

Ye Xin’s heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly said, “Oh, a longtime member of Zhuang Ji invited me out for dinner. Since she spent a lot in Zhuang Ji today, I thought I should accept her dinner invitation.”

As Ye Xin spoke, she took a seat next to Jiang Jin. As usual, she acted coquettishly as she said, “Grandma, you’re really amazing. Our customers admire you so much! For me to achieve that, I think I’ll have to wait for a long time!”

Mu Chen glanced at Ye Xin and casually said, “You’re the boss of Zhuang Ji. There’s no need for you to accompany the customers. Moreover, Zhuang Ji is a high-end brand so it’s fine if you’re a little aloof. If you continue to curry favor with the customers, it’ll affect Zhuang Ji’s reputation.”

Ye Xin’s heart shook in fear upon hearing Mu Chen’s words. She looked at him somewhat timidly.

Jiang Jin tried to smooth things over and said with a kind smile on her face, “It’s alright. Don’t talk to her like that. She’s only just started learning how to manage a business. If you say such words, you’ll only increase the pressure on her. Let’s take it slow; we’re not in a rush anyway. Although Zhuang Ji’s profits aren’t big, we have a solid customer base. Song Ning is just helping Zhuang Ji to build a strong foundation. In any case, it doesn’t matter if Zhuang Ji doesn’t make any profit.”

Ye Xin straightened her back and said, “That’s right, Grandma. You have to help me more. Zhuang Ji will definitely be better in the future!”

Jiang Jin glanced at Mu Chen before she said with a smile, “Zhuang Ji belongs to you. Grandma will naturally help you.”

Ye Xin’s improved further. She had no doubts Zhuang Ji would get better. After all, in her mind, she would have Mu Qing helping her with Zhuang Ji in the future. Most importantly, Zhuang Ji was hers!

Since Jiang Jin liked her so much now, Ye Xin thought it was a good idea to let Jiang Jin help her.

At this moment, Mu Chen suddenly said, “Grandma is getting old, but she still has to teach so many things.” Then, he turned to look at Jiang Jin and said, “Grandma, it’s best if you rest at home. I’ll keep an eye on Zhuang Ji. If there’s any problem, I’ll deal with it.”

Ye Xin said anxiously, “How can you do that? Zhuang Ji is mine. What does it have to do with you?”

As soon as Ye Xin’s voice fell, everyone’s expressions changed.

When Ye Xin realized her mistake, she hurriedly said, “Grandma, Mu Chen is too anxious! He doesn’t even want to give me a chance to learn. We’ve already agreed that I’ll learn to manage Zhuang Ji. Grandma, please talk to him. Don’t let him add to my troubles, okay?”

Jiang Jin patted Ye Xin’s hand and said, “Both of you are husband and wife, but you still need me to intervene in your matters. Although the words he said sounded like he’s worried about me, the person he worries about the most is you. He’s worried you’ll tire yourself out if you’re managing Zhuang Ji, and he’s also worried you’ll be depressed if you stay at home all the time. No matter what you do, he’s always worried about you. When I see how loving both of you are, I feel very happy.”

Upon hearing these words, Ye Xin glanced at Mu Chen, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
