"This is what you said, you can give me whatever I want." Mu Shanshan spoke.
"That's right, go ahead, what do you want?" asked Princess Tricks.
"I want nothing, just Lin Fei!"
Mu Shanshan expressed her demand, simultaneously conveying her thoughts and beliefs. Princess Tricks frowned and said, "Except for Lin Fei."
"I said other than Lin Fei, I want nothing."
Mu Shanshan's tone was firm, leaving no room for doubt.
Princess Tricks sighed, stood up, and walked towards the door, saying, "It seems I need to take Lin Fei with me directly, otherwise the child in the palace will always search for his father."
Boom!
Those words were like a thunderbolt in a clear sky, echoing in Mu Shanshan's mind. For a moment, he couldn't react, stunned in place.
It wasn't until Tricks had left for a long time, after Shen Peini knocked on and entered the office door, that Mu Shanshan was jolted awake. Getting up, Mu Shanshan sat back down into the chair behind her, looking dazed.
"What's wrong, President?"
Shen Peini asked. She had never seen Mu Shanshan like this. In her memories, Mu Shanshan was a very strong woman, and whether in life or work, she had never shown such a look of despair.
Mu Shanshan looked at Shen Peini. At that moment, she seemed to find a floodgate to vent her emotions, recounting the whole story to Shen Peini, which finally made her feel somewhat relieved.
"What should I do, Peini?" Mu Shanshan felt somewhat helpless. Although she hadn't been intimate with Lin Fei, she knew that with Lin Fei's nature, he wouldn't ignore his own child. If so, she had already lost half the battle, and Lin Fei leaving her was only a matter of time.
In fact, what Mu Shanshan was concerned about was indeed true. Lin Fei, having lost his parents since childhood, was the kind of person who, knowing he had a child, would likely give all his love to that child. He wouldn't let the child experience the same fate because he understood the feeling of losing one's parents.
From today, Shen Peini began to understand how important Lin Fei was to Mu Shanshan. She comforted Mu Shanshan, saying, "Shanshan, don't worry. You know his feelings for you; he won't leave you."
Just then, the office door knocked again. Shen Peini personally went to open it to see who it was. Seeing it was Ling Weiwei, she immediately pulled Ling Weiwei into the office.
Ling Weiwei felt bewildered, but when she saw Mu Shanshan, she instantly felt that Mu Shanshan seemed different. Now, Mu Shanshan lacked the aura of an ice queen and looked entirely like a lost soul.
After hearing Shen Peini's explanation, Lin Weiwei couldn't help but sigh, "Every woman shows vulnerability when it comes to emotions."
Back then, Mu Shanshan feared nothing and could hold up an entire company by herself. Now, she was worried sick over the potential departure of one man.
Fortunately, Lin Weiwei and Shen Peini were both friends of the sisterly type with Mu Shanshan. Otherwise, Mu Shanshan wouldn't have revealed her emotional problems.
However, Shen Peini, being the head of the Market Department, naturally understood the complexity of human nature, and also wise about various means to reach ultimate goals. Through her continuous analysis, she finally came to a conclusion: Tricks might be lying!
"I am telling the truth," Shen Peini explained. "You said that Tricks met Lin Fei yesterday without mentioning the child, and today she specifically came to talk to you, only bringing up the child after you rejected her proposal. This clearly doesn't make sense. If there really is a child, why didn't she tell Lin Fei earlier?"
"Right!" Ling Weiwei, prompted by this reminder, suddenly realized that Shen Peini was correct. However, she was pondering another issue. As the head of the General Affairs Department at Mu Group, Ling Weiwei played to her strengths and said.
"The key is how we can know if Tricks is really deceiving Lin Fei, and how can we break her scheme!"
As the saying goes, one good hero needs three helpers, and three women make a drama. However, Mu Shanshan, Shen Peini, and Ling Weiwei, three business elites, were discussing in the office how to deal with the princess of the Bilabo royal family.
In the villa, Lin Fei lay on a rocking chair, basking in the sun. Ever since his relationship with Mu Shanshan deepened, he often thought about whether to have a child.
This thought was strange. Sometimes Lin Fei even laughed at himself, but he quite liked children. Unfortunately, Mu Shanshan always wouldn't let him touch her. For Lin Fei, forcing was not sweet, and he didn't like to force his woman. He preferred when women willingly dedicate themselves to him.
"Honey?"
Suddenly, with his eyes closed, enjoying the sunlight, Lin Fei heard a gentle voice beside his ear. He immediately bounced off the rocking chair and, seeing the visitor, spoke, "Tricks, y-you better not call me that. After all, you're a princess of a country, and I'm just a commoner in Mo Country."
Upon hearing Lin Fei's words, Tricks immediately teared up, like she was greatly wronged, and said, "Lin Fei, you don't know how I've been living all these years. I've been searching for you all this time, and after so much hardship to find you, this is how you treat me..." As she spoke, Tricks' tears began to fall.
This made Lin Fei anxious. Lin Fei, who had a way with comforting women, found no particularly good way to soothe a crying woman. He could only step forward, hug her shoulders, and pat gently to show comfort.
However, when he saw Mu Shanshan's car approaching from a distance, Lin Fei quickly let go of Tricks' shoulders. Just as he intended to step back, Tricks suddenly hugged Lin Fei's waist from the front, crying in his embrace.
Mu Shanshan got out of the car. Upon seeing this scene, she wasn't overly agitated but calmly smiled and said, "Princess Tricks, who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll help you teach him a lesson."
Tricks stopped crying, looked at Mu Shanshan, and said, "Sister Shanshan, I beg you, please give Lin Fei back to me. I really can't live without him, and neither can my child be without a father."
Hearing the last sentence, Lin Fei's entire body trembled. He suddenly grabbed Tricks' shoulders, unknowingly using strength, causing Tricks to cry out in pain, bringing Lin Fei back to his senses from his excitement.
"Child? What child? Tricks, what do you mean?" Lin Fei asked excitedly.
Standing by, Mu Shanshan, seeing Lin Fei in this state, suddenly confirmed her suspicion. Lin Fei indeed cared deeply about the child issue, and at the same time, Mu Shanshan felt a sense of guilt towards Lin Fei.
