Chapter 124 Meeting Mu Yuehan
Zhou Liying was making her way toward the elevator where Min Yue was reciting the schedule for the day. Mu Yuehan was silently following after them.
"In the morning you have a video conference with the American branch, in the afternoon you will be meeting Mister Mu and…."
Zhou Liying interrupted her, hearing the name of Mu Yuehan. Mu Yuehan also straightened up. "So, you have set the meeting with him. I thought you were still unable to contact him."
"I contacted him long ago but we failed to find a time where you both could be free. Fortunately, today you both didn\'t have any commitment."
Zhou Liying nodded when she heard the explanation by Min Yue. Mu Yuehan smirked from behind them.
After completing her video conference, Zhou Liying arrived at the Japanese restaurant where her meeting with Mu Yuehan was arranged.
After receiving her identity, the restaurant staff directed her toward the private room of Mu Yuehan.
"Miss, should I follow you in?" Min Yue asked, because usually, in this type of private meeting, Min Yue was not allowed to be inside, in case her presence was not liked by another party.
Zhou Liying looked at Mu Yuehan and nodded at Min Yue. She knew Mu Yuehan was to follow her inside. So, she didn\'t wish to leave her secretary behind.
"Mister Mu is waiting for you inside." The guard standing in the private room informed and opened the door. Zhou Liying entered inside with real Mu Yuehan and Min Yue at the toe.
"Good to see you, Miss Zhou." Zhan Wei stood up from his seat and greeted Zhou Liying.
Li Tao was receiving many messages from Min Yue that Zhou Liying wanted to meet Mu Yuehan. He knew that Zhou Liying would become doubtful if she did not meet Mu Yuehan.
So, yesterday night, Mu Yuehan asked Zhan Wei to meet Zhou Liying while impersonating Mu Yuehan.
"Good to see you." Zhou Liying smiled and shook hands with Zhan Wei.
Zhan Wei inwardly smiled when he saw Zhou Liying after such a long time. He could pinpoint the changes in her from the last time he had seen her.
In juju island, she was a little fussy and shy. She was carefree and childish, but the lady in front of him was quite sophisticated. Not only that, her looks, her hair, and her way of clothing were also changed.
Earlier, the pair of Mu Yuehan and Zhou Liying was like water, both had soft hearts but now, they both were fire. They had their terror in the business world.
"Tell me, Miss Zhou, why did you want to meet me?" Zhan Wei asked and leaned toward her.
Zhou Liying closed the menu and placed it aside. She too leaned toward him, looking directly into his eyes. Her eyes were shining with sharpness.
"I did not want to meet you. I wanted to meet Mu Yuehan but guess what, he had sent his proxy to meet me."
Zhan Wei looked at her with shock before quickly composing himself. "What do you mean miss Zhou? I am real Mu Yuehan, not some proxy."
Zhou Liying scoffed and leaned against her chair. "You can fool the world but not me. Tell me, who you are and where is Mu Yuehan? Answer fast because I don\'t have any time to waste."
Behind her, Mu Yuehan looked at her with amusement because it was the first time that someone had recognised that Zhan Wei was not Mu Yuehan. Zhou Liying was speaking this with so much confidence as if she was sure he was not real.
"Are you telling me your identity mister…."
"Zhan Wei," Zhan Wei raised his hands. "I am vice president of Mu Corporations. Mu Yuehan is not available because of some family-related commitments. So, for the time being, I am handling his all deals. I did not have any ill intention in fooling you."
Zhan Wei raised his hands in surrender. Zhou Liying narrowed her eyes and looked at him.
"Where is Mu Yuehan?"
\'Behind you.\' Zhan Wei wanted to say.
"As I have told you before, he is busy with his family. He hasn\'t visited the office for the last two weeks. If it was not about his family, I am sure, he was going to be sitting here instead of me."
"Please don\'t feel offended miss Zhou. You must know about the importance of family in a person\'s life. Family is everything for Mu Yuehan."
Zhou Liying nodded her head. "I did not take him as a man who will love his family. Guess what, he is not so heartless as I thought." She stood up from her seat. Zhan Wei looked at her with wide eyes.
"Please don\'t leave without having lunch. Maybe Mu Yuehan is not here, but we can discuss the project over lunch."
"No, but thank you. I will prefer to have lunch with Mu Yuehan only." Zhou Liying threw a small smile in his direction. "Don\'t think that I am feeling offended. I can understand his reasons very well. I hope, soon he will find time to meet me. After all, a huge project is at stake."
There were warning and politeness in the voice of Zhou Liying. She was about to leave the private room when Zhan Wei asked the question which was killing him.
"How did you recognise me? For the last five years, I am impersonating Mu Yuehan but till now, no one was able to see through me, then how you?"
"I must say Mister Zhan if I am correct, the people whom you met were either blind or did not care that the person with whom they were dealing with was not Mu Yuehan. And for how I recognised you, keep guessing that." She smirked and left the private room.
Once she was out of the private room, her face became dark. She clenched her fist tight.
\'What was Mu Yuehan thinking of himself by not meeting her? Was he making fun of her? Could he not find some spare time to meet her?\'
Mu Yuehan noticed her expressions and he gulped. He knew Zhou Liying was angry with him. Now, he regretted his decision. If only he didn\'t underestimate her sharpness.
"Min Yue, ask our guards to locate Mu Yuehan. If he can\'t meet us then let us find him. Let me teach some lessons to him." She ordered and looked ahead with a murderous aura.
\'Sweetheart, I am meeting you every day. It\'s just that, you don\'t know who I am till now.\'
Min Yue nodded her head and then asked out of curiosity. "Miss, how do you realise that he was not Mu Yuehan?"
"His facial expressions and the way he looked at me." Zhou Liying replied to her observation. "He is such a big businessman but he didn\'t have that aura. Something was missing in him which told me that he was not real."
Min Yue grinned and again mentally praised her miss. Zhou Liying was so sharp. Mu Yuehan was also praising her from behind.
