Chapter 856: Don’t Run Away With The Foreigner
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
When Qiao Mu heard her name, she looked at Ye Nuan, wondering who she was talking to on the phone.
When Ling Xi heard that it was Qiao Mu, he replied with an â oh â and said, â Alright then, â before hanging up.
Seeing Ye Nuan put away her phone, Qiao Mu asked curiously, ââ Who called you? Do you know me? â
Before Ye Nuan could say anything, Qiao Muâs phone rang. It was an unknown number in the country. Qiao Mu picked up the call and heard Ling Xi call out respectfully, â Sister-in-law, are you eating? â
Qiao Mu was speechless.
What kind of wind was this? Not only did Young Master Ling take the initiative to contact her, but his attitude was also so friendly.
âHow did you know I was eating?â Qiao Mu asked.
âYour sister-in-law told me.â
Sister-in-lawâ¦
Qiao Mu couldnât help but glance at Ye Nuan across from her. She was stunned for a second before blinking in surprise.
âSo, what do you want to do by calling me?â Qiao Mu asked indifferently.
â Itâs nothing. I just want Sister-in-law to be able to display her abilities as a sister-in-law. Help me keep an eye on Ye Nuan. Iâll send her to Paris. If she runs away with the foreigner, wonât I suffer a huge loss? â
âAre you sure itâs really Sister-in-law?â
âOf course!â The girlfriend that he was dealing with was still his girlfriend. He had always been a responsible person.
Qiao Mu somewhat understood. Ye Nuan said that she relied on her connections to come to the Paris fashion show, but it turned out that Ling Xi had helped her.
How did these two get together?
âSo, you want me to monitor Ye Nuan?â Qiao Mu asked indifferently.
Ye Nuanâs hand that was holding the fork paused for a moment, and she raised her head to meet Qiao Muâs smiling face.
Ling Xi exploded on the other end of the phone. â Who told you to say it? If she finds out, sheâll think that I care about her! I just donât want to do a losing business.â
âSorry, Iâm very busy. I donât have time to talk to you.â Qiao Mu immediately hung up the phone and said to Ye Nuan, â Itâs Ling Xi. Allow me to gossip. Are you two together? â
Ye Nuan shook her head. â You might look down on me if I tell you, but Iâm only with Ling Xi because of his power. Iâm his girlfriend in name, but Iâm not really his girlfriend. He helped me with my career, and we both got what we needed. â
Qiao Mu was stunned. She didnât expect that to be the case. She had been very happy just now, thinking that the two of them had developed feelings for each other. After all, she liked Ye Nuan very much.
However, if she was just a girlfriend on the surface, why would Ling Xi let her monitor her? It was obviously not that simple.
She recalled what Ye Nuan had said before, that this industry was very messy, and if one didnât have a backer, it would be very difficult for them to gain a foothold.
Actually, she could totally understand. She had always had Li Yan as her backer, so she would still be bullied sometimes. Besides, Ling Xi was willing to fight and she was willing to take it. What did she have to object to?
Qiao Mu did not think much of it. â Why should I look down on you? If I look down on you, Iâm looking down on myself. Iâve also relied on Li Yanâs influence quite a bit. â
Ye Nuan smiled. â Youâre different from me. You two have feelings for each other. Besides, youâre already very good. Youâve never used Li Yan to show off to others. Your works didnât become popular because of Li Yan. â
Qiao Mu loved hearing this. After all, she was a hardworking person.
Ye Nuan thought about it and asked again, â Since youâre done gossiping, allow me to be curious. Is Ji Lan really Li Yanâs fiancée? â
Upon hearing this, Qiao Mu was stunned at first. When she met Ye Nuanâs worried gaze, she burst out laughing. â Youâre thinking too much. I wonât be a third party. That was just a scandal that Ji Lan directed and acted out. â
Ye Nuan smiled awkwardly. â I knew it. So rumors are scary. Many people believe that itâs true. Donât you care? â
