The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 223 Attending the Dinner Party

Chapter 223 Attending the Dinner

Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, gazing at the name on the plaque. Her feelings went far beyond mere gratitude. Li Chenxu had brought her so many surprises; this person… she could never leave him again in this lifetime…

"By the way, you need to clear your schedule tonight. You're the chairman of Chengyu, and a big shot returning from abroad is hosting a ball tonight. To promote Chengyu's reputation, we probably can't do without you tonight."

In fact, Cheng Yu is already quite famous in Beijing and has been involved in many industries. However, because Li Chenxu's previous work focus was not on Cheng Yu, and he never expected things to turn out this way, Cheng Yu is not yet the most proficient in any particular business.

Now that Li Chenxu has decided to focus all his energy on Cheng Yu for the time being, he naturally has to make the necessary plans.

Moreover, he was well aware that the prejudice against Mu Xiaoyu was deeply ingrained in the Li family and their side. Now was the perfect opportunity to spread the word that Mu Xiaoyu was the chairman of Chengyu little by little. Even if the Li family and their side did not believe it at first, as time went by and Mu Xiaoyu attended more and more such occasions, they would naturally gradually believe it.

By then, things will be somewhat better than they are now.

He married Mu Xiaoyu because he wanted her to be happy, not to suffer these grievances forever.

Mu Xiaoyu had no idea that Li Chenxu had made so many calls in such a short time. Hearing this, she nodded indifferently and said, "Sure, you know I have a lot of free time. I also had some drafts on hand, so there's no need to worry too much for now. But... you don't have to go to this extent. You used to be the president of Li's Group, and now you suddenly have nothing. If even Chengyu isn't yours anymore, it'll be so embarrassing if word gets out."

Her words made Li Chenxu chuckle. He lowered his head, bent down slightly, and leaned closer to Mu Xiaoyu, asking with a smile, "If it weren't for Cheng Yu, and I really became a penniless nobody, would you still like me?"

Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, unsure whether she genuinely believed Li Chenxu's feigned affection or had other plans. She tilted her head, scrutinizing Li Chenxu, and finally looked at him with a particularly serious expression, saying, "Brother Chenxu, do you... not quite understand yourself?"

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"Don't you know how valuable your face is? Even if you really have nothing, I believe there will be many rich women who will want to take care of you. Just because of your face, you will definitely not become a penniless pauper."

Mu Xiaoyu was speaking from the heart. Before she fell in love with Li Chenxu, even though she hated him from the bottom of her heart, she had to admit how handsome Li Chenxu's face was.

Now that she's fallen for him, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and this face is only a million times more beautiful than before. Even if she were to give all her assets to Li Chenxu, she would be willing to do so just for this face!

Li Chenxu never expected that after waiting for so long, these were indeed the things that Mu Xiaoyu was thinking about. He didn't react for a moment, and when he heard this, he was stunned and stared blankly at Mu Xiaoyu. He was quite amusing.

Mu Xiaoyu rarely saw Li Chenxu like this, and couldn't help but laugh.

She winked at Li Chenxu and said with a smile, "Could it be that you yourself have thought the same thing?"

These words brought Li Chenxu back to his senses. He didn't answer immediately, but looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a half-smile, his deep eyes slightly narrowed, and slowly said, "So that's what you were thinking... Mu Xiaoyu, you're really something!"

By the end, his words carried a hint of gritted teeth.

Recently, Mu Xiaoyu has been spoiled too much by Li Chenxu. Not only has her mentality become younger and younger, but she has also become bolder and bolder.

Upon hearing Li Chenxu's tone, he immediately shuddered.

She quickly gave Li Chenxu a fawning smile, and before he could say anything else, she reached out and hugged his neck, planting a quick kiss on his lips: "Didn't you say you had a lot of things to do today? I was just joking, please forgive me, okay? We can talk about it after get off work, let's get back to work now?"

When Li Chenxu came to his senses, he was so angry that he almost couldn't help but pull down Mu Xiaoyu's pants and spank her.

But now, seeing Mu Xiaoyu's ingratiating and coquettish appearance, his heart melted instantly. He was too busy cherishing and treasuring her to bear spanking her.

If anyone's to blame, it's him; he spoiled Mu Xiaoyu rotten.

Li Chenxu was somewhat helpless. He glared at the other person reproachfully, and finally, as if venting his anger, he bit Mu Xiaoyu's earlobe again. He only let go of her when he heard Mu Xiaoyu gasp.

"I'll forgive you this time, but if I hear you say something like that again, I'll see how I deal with you!"

"I promise not!"

Mu Xiaoyu quickly assured him, but she didn't really mean it. She now understood Li Chenxu's personality perfectly. He was a typical soft-hearted person with a sharp tongue when he was with her. Even if she repeated what she just said, he wouldn't have the heart to hurt her.

Li Chenxu is truly gentle to her to the core...

Li Chenxu still has a lot to deal with. In order to avoid any unexpected problems, he has to review all the company's important projects again, and he also needs to rearrange the work of the company's key personnel within the limited time available today.

In addition, since many of Li's employees left with Li Chenxu this time and came to Chengyu, the arrangements for these people cannot be taken lightly.

Until they were about to attend the banquet that evening, Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu barely exchanged more than three sentences. Li Chenxu even ate his meal at his desk.

The work was almost finished. Li Chenxu moved his stiff body. It had been a long time since he had worked continuously like this. Even someone as physically fit as him was finding it hard to keep up.

Seeing that Li Chenxu had finished his work, Mu Xiaoyu quickly went behind him and massaged him.

"Is everything settled?"

"There are still some, but we need to head out now to prepare for the dinner later. This dinner is more important than most of the previous ones, so we can't be careless."
