Chapter 569: It’s Really Not a Date?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Recently, the scale of CG had expanded a lot, and they urgently needed to replenish their manpower. However, Murong Qiao didn’t need to do this recruitment work herself.

She found Jiang Chi’s chat box and told him about the recruitment.

[Pay more attention when the company recruits new people. Don’t let people with shady backgrounds in.]

Murong Qiao’s fingertips danced on the keyboard. She typed a line of words and sent it.

Experiencing backstabbing was enough once or twice. She couldn’t always forget. Part of the reason why her people had been poached previously was because someone had caused a commotion internally.

Whether it was the employees or artistes, Murong Qiao had higher requirements for the recruitment this time. Moreover, CG had just come into the scene and had already reached a certain scale.

[Understood.] Jiang Chi replied in less than a minute.

Seeing this, Murong Qiao continued to stare at the computer and focused on it.

However, she would think of An Nuo from time to time. After all, the other party would usually come back a little earlier than her.

Murong Qiao didn’t know that An Nuo was still sitting opposite her Big Brother

Murong Chen and eating dinner at the dining table.

When eating, they had to abide by the habit of not saying anything.

No matter how beautiful and moving the night scenery outside was, Murong

Chen and An Nuo’s gazes were not diverted.

An Nuo was a little nervous because this was the first time she was eating with Murong Chen. She restrained herself from doing anything rude, but she subconsciously ate much faster.

“This place is very close to my house. I’ll go back myself. I can’t trouble you to send me off.” An Nuo said goodbye in embarrassment.

Originally, the dinner today was not within An Nuo’s expectations. She felt that this was already very troublesome for Murong Chen, so it was even more inappropriate for her to let him do anything more.

Murong Chen didn’t want to force her, but he first glanced at the dark night outside.

■■It’s not safe for you to go home alone so late at night. If you have to, I can send you downstairs or to the entrance of your neighborhood.”

An Nuo was a girl after all, and Murong Chen couldn’t bring himself to do such an ungentlemanly thing. He couldn’t just leave her here and let her go home alone.

Seeing Murong Chen like this, An Nuo could only agree.

It was unknown if it was because of the “refinement” of the day, but in the end, An Nuo’s heart was surprisingly calm. She even had the mood to size up the interior of the car from the front passenger seat.

“This is good. I’ll walk the rest of the way myself. Also, thank you for taking care of me today.” An Nuo asked to get off.

If they continued forward, they would be directly at the door of her house. An

Nuo saw the lights turned on from afar and guessed that Murong Qiao had returned early today.

If Qiaoqiao saw her getting out of Murong Chen’s car, not to mention how to explain it, An Nuo couldn’t let herself expose the surprise that Murong Chen wanted to prepare for his Little Sister.

Murong Chen didn’t force her. “Then let’s stop here.”

■■However, you can’t say thank you. You’ve helped me a lot today and we’ve met a few times. There’s no need to be so reserved with me.”

An Nuo pursed her lips and smiled. She was a little more relaxed because of Murong Chen’s words.

After getting out of the car from the passenger seat, An Nuo turned around hesitantly and waved at Murong Chen in the car, saying goodbye softly.

Murong Chen didn’t leave in a hurry. The car was parked there with the headlights on.

This way, he could use the light to see An Nuo’s figure walking further and further away. At the same time, it could illuminate the path under the other party’s feet.

An Nuo originally thought that after waving at Murong Chen, the other party would leave.

But when she turned around and took a step forward, the light shining from behind didn’t move at all.

An Nuo’s heart was pounding, but she was too embarrassed to turn around to look this time. She could only step on the lights bit by bit and walk on the especially bright “road” at night, gradually approaching the building door.

Was he just being a gentleman?

An Nuo’s thoughts began to dance uncontrollably in her mind again, disturbing her clear mind.

She couldn’t deny that she had sensed her feelings for Murong Chen, but when she realized his current actions, she couldn’t help but think too much.

She secretly hoped that this was not the case, but she also felt that she was thinking too much.

With this thought in mind, An Nuo stepped into the elevator and finally returned home.

“Why are you back so late?” Murong Qiao didn’t look up and asked casually. Other than her, the only person who could open the door with a key was An Nuo. Therefore, Murong Qiao was not worried that she had greeted the wrong person.

An Nuo was lost in her thoughts and didn’t hear Murong Qiao’s question.

After not receiving An Nuo’s answer for a long time, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but look up at her.

In the end, she saw An Nuo’s slightly red cheeks and her slightly pale face. “What are you thinking about to be in a daze as soon as you come back? Have you finished eating? Why don’t we order takeout together?”

At this moment, Murong Qiao didn’t think much about it.

At the mention of food, An Nuo’s face turned even redder.

She shook her head. “I ate before I came back.”

“Why do I feel that your condition hasn’t been right since you came back…

Murong Qiao finally felt that something was wrong.

She put down the laptop in her hand and stood up to look at An Nuo. She even leaned closer and easily took in the other party’s condition.

The two of them had interacted for so long usually. It only took a glance to tell that An Nuo was blushing.

Murong Qiao narrowed his eyes and a thought flashed through her mind.

“An Nuo, don’t tell me you’re in a relationship?” she suddenly said.

An Nuo immediately retorted, “How is that possible!

Her face immediately turned red from embarrassment. It stained her fair face like a burning cloud, and from her face to her ears, it became the same color.

“I only came back late! What are you thinking!” An Nuo raised her voice. However, in Murong Qiao’s eyes, this appearance looked more like a bluff. She was not in a hurry to ask or investigate, but her face was still smiling.

An Nuo denied it again. “Don’t make such a joke…”

“Don’t talk about me. Why are you back so early today?” She hurriedly changed the topic.

On the one hand, she really didn’t want to be teased by Murong Qiao like this. On the other hand, she was afraid that she would subconsciously leak something under Murong Qiao’s questioning and ruin the surprise Murong Chen had prepared for her.

Murong Qiao saw An Nuo’s embarrassment and didn’t continue teasing her.

She pointed at the documents that were almost all over the coffee table. “I’m going to Flicker’s rehearsal tomorrow. I came back earlier today to recuperate.” “I remember you saying that you didn’t eat dinner?” An Nuo remembered belatedly.

She glanced disapprovingly at the fact that it was almost late at night. “You don’t have to wait for me like this next time. Perhaps I’ll be busy with work again. Let’s order some takeout to fill your stomach first.

“I was too busy and forgot.” Murong Qiao shrugged helplessly.

She had really forgotten. She couldn’t remember anything once she switched to work mode.

It was not until An Nuo returned and caused some commotion to remind her that her stomach was rumbling. Only then did she remember that she didn’t seem to have eaten yet.

By the time An Nuo ordered takeout for Murong Qiao and she finished eating, it was already past 11 p.m.

The two of them had always had a good relationship, so they slept together from time to time. Tonight was no exception.

However, after turning off the bedroom light and looking at the dim and warm yellow light emitted by the small bedside lamp, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but ask.

“Did you really not go on a date today?”

“Don’t ask anymore!”
