Chapter 767: The Fragrance That Can’t Be Put On

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

After the suggestion to hold a barbecue party at night was unanimously approved, everyone immediately divided the work and each took on a portion of the work.

However, it was rare for Murong Chuan, who was usually in charge of cooking, to go offline this time.

After all, he was the one who helped prepare lunch. Coupled with what Murong Zheng, the doctor, said, they couldn’t let him be busy at night. Moreover, Uncle Yang didn’t agree with the other party’s excessive exercise.

Although the injuries on his body had almost healed, some parts still had stitches to prevent his wounds from cracking and others from noticing anything amiss. Murong Chuan could only regretfully withdraw and say that he had a cold recently and was not suitable to help, so he handed this part of the work to the others.

“I’ll do it.” An Nuo took the initiative to take over this part of the work.

An Nuo might not be able to cook, but she was definitely more than enough to prepare some barbecue ingredients and condiments. Moreover, she had lived with Murong Qiao for so long and the two of them had cooked separately.

Everyone ignored Yan Xiu, who was secluded in his room, and tacitly agreed to wait for everything to be prepared before calling him down to eat.

As for Murong Zheng, because some work at the hospital still needed to be handled remotely, he handed the remaining miscellaneous matters to Xian Yu and Murong Qiao.

“There don’t seem to be many drinks at home. I’ll go out and buy some later.” Xian Yu ran to the fridge to take a look.

Usually, only Uncle Yang and Murong Chen didn’t drink much at home. Even if they drank, they mainly drank tea.

Uncle Yang had no objections and even wrote a list of other things for Xian Yu to buy. “Then I’ll have to trouble Young Master to help me bring these back too.”

Although it was not that they couldn’t leave the purchase of supplies to the servants, sometimes, it was also a form of fun for everyone to prepare a sumptuous dinner together.

“I want to drink cola. Qiaoqiao, what about you? And An Nuo? You can send me whatever you like to drink. I’ll go out first.”

He called out and pushed open the door to walk out. He was a little energetic and did whatever he thought of. He couldn’t wait any longer.

“I can drink anything,” An Nuo hurriedly said.

When she came to other people’s houses as a guest, An Nuo had never been picky, let alone in the Murong Family’s house. She was too embarrassed to cause trouble for the other party.

As for Murong Qiao’s taste, Xian Yu knew it very well.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Murong Qiao looked at the time and realized that her Big Brother didn’t seem to have sent her a message today. Hence, she found a place to stand outside and took the initiative to call the other party.

The call was picked up after a few rings.

“Big Brother? Are you very busy?” Murong Qiao asked casually.

She looked at the carefully tended rose garden outside. The fragrant smell of flowers wafted to her nose, and she couldn’t help but feel happy.

Even when Murong Qiao was not around, the garden was carefully taken care of to maintain this beauty.

The appearance of the roses seemed to have been maintained forever at this moment. Murong Qiao couldn’t help but reach out her fingertips to touch it gently, but she felt its softness. Then, she couldn’t help but soften her grip.

The sound of paper flipping came from Murong Chen’s side. “I’ll go back later.”

“I’m still at the company. There are some things I have to deal with that haven’t ended yet.”

Murong Chen sped up the signing process after informing his Little Sister.

Knowing that her Big Brother was very busy, Murong Qiao called just to ask. Therefore, she hung up after a few words.

On the other hand, there were still a few documents on Murong Chen’s desk that he had yet to deal with.

“President…” The secretary spoke slightly, still holding the report in her hand.

She was reporting the company’s situation to Murong Chen when she was interrupted by Murong Qiao’s sudden call.

Only then did Murong Chen remember that he had not heard the other party’s report.

He looked at the remaining workload and rubbed his temples with a headache. He simply waved his hand and had no intention of continuing to listen.

“Leave the report here for now. I’ll send you a message if there are any problems in the future. I have to go home first later,” Murong Chen instructed the secretary.

Seeing this, the secretary naturally didn’t say anything else. Hence, after bowing, she respectfully placed the report in her hand beside Murong Chen and left quietly.

However, when the President picked up the call just now, his gentle tone still surprised the secretary.

Only the President’s sister could receive this treatment.

The secretary closed the office door and couldn’t help but feel envious. If anyone made a mistake in their work usually, the President’s cold face seemed to be able to freeze the blood in one’s body and limbs, making one feel the chill for three to nine days.

Murong Chen didn’t know about his secretary’s rich mental activity. After cleaning up a few especially important documents, he prepared to go downstairs and take a taxi home.

Although Shengjing Group had not been in much trouble recently, there were endless small problems. It also gave Murong Chen a headache from time to time.

After taking a deep breath, he got up from his seat and prepared to go back. He looked at the already dark weather outside. After thinking for a moment, he reached out to take the coat on the chair beside him and put it on.

However, after the coat was wrapped around his body, the elegant and fresh fragrance swept into his nose, causing him to be stunned for a moment.

Murong Chen belatedly remembered that this was the coat he had lent An Nuo the other day.

However, he didn’t pay much attention to it at that time. After the other party returned, he put it in the closet. He didn’t expect to wear this today.

Perhaps it was because the fragrance of the detergent was a little fresh and elegant, but it didn’t make him feel disgusted. It smelled different and comfortable.

Murong Chen’s action of putting on his coat was clearly slower at the end.

He couldn’t help but think of a neighbor he had not seen for a long time through the fragrance. He thought of the rabbit pajamas and soft ears that hung beside her hair that day.

The more he recalled, the clearer the memories in his mind. It was as if he was really standing in the scene that day.

However, it had been a while since he had gone to the branch company to inspect his recent work. His focus was on Shengjing Group, so he had less interaction with An Nuo.

…Forget it, let’s go home first.

Murong Chen retracted his wandering thoughts, pushed open the office door, and walked towards the elevator.

The secretary was sorting out a new batch of documents and was about to send them to the President’s office when she bumped into Murong Chen, who rarely got off work on time.

This scene was rare to see even once a month.

The secretary watched in surprise as the President left the office early. Then, she remembered that it should be his Little Sister who had called just now and had an explanation in her heart.

However, after some thought, her sense of smell, which was half a beat late, finally transmitted the flower fragrance she had just smelled to her brain. Then, it pulled out some imagination in the secretary’s mind.

The fragrance of the flowers was clearly the kind that a girl would use.

The soft and fresh fragrance had nothing to do with the usually cold President.

The secretary suddenly turned around and looked in the direction where the President had just left. However, Murong Chen walked very quickly and could no longer be seen. However, this didn’t reduce the associations in the secretary’s heart..
