"So obsessed with her that he can't see anything else. He just wants to get her back in his life either for revenge or to complete the fantasies of his obsession."
As soon as words came out of Wang Yue's mouth Xiao Muchen turned and walked near her with panic scattered on his face.
He held her forearm to make her look at him. But when she still kept looking down, he held her chin to make her look at his gaze.
"How do you know all this, Wang Yue? Do you know something about him or do you…"
"No. I don't know anything about him. I just guessed it when you said it is not her parents. Then who left back? Who would want her separated from Mr Smith and even harm their daughter? It won't be Mr Smith's parents otherwise she would have been in the hospital, not Mr Smith."
Xiao Muchen was stunned. He knew the great next heir of the Wang empire was the prefect but knowing her slowly like this made an impression on his mind.
"Beauty with brain and heart too. Emotional yet realistic. Sensible yet ready to take chances with whole unrealistic sentiments. Stupid yet brilliant."
He said to himself and smiled in his mind.
"You know when your father told me you wanted to work with me as an assistant, I thought you were either the dumbest CEO I am going to work with for the next 6 months or just an opportunist to get away from work. But you are not failing a single chance to amaze me."
When Xiao Muchen spoke his heart for the first time, Wang Yue somehow came back to thinking of a new chance she got. She was dumbfounded to hear his heart for real. In her last life, she never knew what he thought about her.
"Well, that offer is still valid. Maybe there will be a chance you will learn something from me after I become your new assistant."
Xiao Muchen giggled for the first time in front of Wang Yue making her go weak on her knees. He shook his head and smiled at her.
"No, I am perfectly fine alone. I don't need that smart assistant. What if she takes over Xiao's businesses?"
She looked at him all mesmerised and giggled but soon their interaction came to a halt when they heard the footsteps of someone in a gazebo. Their attention promptly went to that person and Xiao Muchen stood up in the process.
"Aunty Su, you got it?"
As Aunty Su came inside the gazebo, she asked another servant to come inside looking at the couple who were looking at them.
She gestured for the servant to put the tray of food to place on the coffee table. When the servant left to serve everything, she smiled looking at Xiao Muchen.
"Dear Chen Chen, your coffee, snacks and hot chocolate for young madam. Please call me if you require something more."
She turned back to go inside the house when Wang Yue called her.
"Thank you for the hot chocolate, Aunty Su. I was craving it like anything. How did you know that I wanted to have hot chocolate?"
Wang Yue walked near her and hugged her without any warning and both the people around her fell into amusement at her behaviour.
"Thank you so much."
She again said and moved back to her hot chocolate. She immediately held on to the glass and drank a sip from it.
"Yummy. This is so tasty, Aunty Su! Thank you so much for making it."
She exclaimed loudly but Aunty Su cit her down.
"Young madam, it's our Muchen who asked me to get it for you. You must thank him."
She spoke even when Xiao Muchen was gesturing for her not to tell Wang Yibo about it. Aunty Su smiled looking at him and went back inside the house leaving both of them to talk in silence for a long time.
For a long time, no one spoke but then Wang Yue pulled her chair back and sat placing the coffee cup on Xiao Muchen's side. When they both finished eating snacks and drinking their drinks, Wang Yue smiled her heart smile.
"Thank you so much for it but mind you telling me, how do you know I would like to have hot chocolate now?"
"You remember I stayed at your house for more than one week. I got to know about you from your father and grandfather."
When he told her this, Wang Yue was hit with the light of incidences. When Wang Yue was about to join the company as CEO, Xiao Muchen was there for their business but they never interacted on a personal level. She was out of New York all the time when he was there at her place. They first met when he saved her from dying.
"For them, you are their everything. I got to know everything about you when you were in a coma. Every day they prayed for you to get back consciousness. They both love you from the bottom of their hearts."
"I know after Mama and Jiejie's death, they handled me very well. They know everything about me and want me to be happy for life."
"I guess all parents are the same."
"Yes, they are just like Mr and Mrs Smith. But I noticed one thing the way Mrs Smith behaved right now, I saw her taking a breath of relief."
Xiao Muchen smirked at her last sentence. He turned his head, his gaze meeting a gorgeous girl sitting next to him, casual enough but the girl was whipped for sure. She looked at him without blinking her eyes for a long time.
"Because she knows that she is at Xiao's. Nothing is going to get wrong with Ai until she is under my protection. I won't let anything happen to them."
"What are you planning to do, Xiao Muchen?"
Wang Yue got up from her chair as soon as she heard what he was talking about and went near him. The smirk on Xiao Muchen's face wasn't ready to go away and she knew the great Mr Xiao Muchen back whom the whole country feared.
"I will go to them before they come to her."
