The Art of Pursuing: The Unyielding Ex-wife

The other party’s studio seemed to have anticipated her call for an appointment, arranging the meeting time for 3 PM today, right in the studio.

Munni spent most of the day playing with a dog, even giving it a name: Bruce, English name Blues.

She arrived at Lu Lin Yuan’s studio ten minutes early and was received by his secretary, who informed her that Lu Lin Yuan was in a meeting and could see her at three.

After waiting for a while, the secretary warmly invited her into Lu Lin Yuan’s office.

As soon as the secretary opened the office door, Munni heard a burst of hearty laughter from inside.

Lu Lin Yuan was chatting and laughing with a friend when he noticed Munni walking in, quickly standing up from the sofa to greet her, "Apologies, Miss Qin, for keeping you waiting."

"No worries, I was early."

Lu Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, then turned to his friend who was sitting on the sofa with his back to them and said, "I have a client here now, do you want to step out for a bit?"

There seemed to be no real intention of asking his friend to leave in his tone, which carried a hint of teasing.

The man sitting on the sofa rose slowly. Even without turning around, Munni recognized his identity just from his tall and handsome back.

Yisen slowly turned around, letting his gaze settle on the surprised-looking Munni. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

He slightly curled his thin lips into a noble and elegant smile, "No need."

Lu Lin Yuan glanced at Munni, a faint trace of mischief in his smile as he asked, "Miss Qin, what do you think?"

"As you wish."

"Alright then, please have a seat."

Munni sat down on the sofa opposite Xu Yisen, while Lu Lin Yuan sat on the single sofa between them.

He glanced amusingly at the two sitting opposite each other, suppressing the urge to laugh out loud, then spoke gently, "Miss Qin, I’ve already seen that two-story building. Do you have any specific requirements for the restaurant design?"

Munni couldn’t help but click her tongue in her heart; she had just called the studio this morning, and Lu Lin Yuan had already visited the restaurant? As expected, Yisen cared more about this restaurant than she did!

For the next hour, the three of them focused their conversation on the restaurant design.

Lu Lin Yuan accepted all of Munni’s requests, and Munni, in turn, adopted all of Lu Lin Yuan’s suggestions. Xu Yisen didn’t say much, leaving all the decisions to Munni.

After reaching an agreement, Munni and Lu Lin Yuan signed the contract, and Xu Yisen immediately wrote a check for Lu Lin Yuan.

Lu Lin Yuan promised Munni that the blueprints would be ready in two weeks and told her to come back then.

Seeing that everything was settled, Munni glanced at her watch and then slowly got up, "Then I’ll trouble you, see you in two weeks."

"Yes, alright."

Seeing her stand up, Xu Yisen also pretended to check the time and stood up from the sofa, "It’s not late, I won’t disturb you any longer."

His parting words caused Lu Lin Yuan to chuckle slightly, and Lu Lin Yuan jokingly said, "Oh, come on, stay a bit longer with me."

Xu Yisen gave him a somewhat disdainful look without answering, and as Munni left, he quickly followed her.

The soft and steady footsteps behind her inexplicably reminded Munni of the ambiguous scene of their kiss last night, which stirred up her previously calm heart.

"Are you free? Want to have dinner together?"

Instead of responding to Yisen’s invitation, Munni lightly mocked, "Are you a ghost or something? Why do you always linger around?"
