Chapter 57: How GenerousTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“That goes without saying. As a smart girl, I need to have foresight!” she proclaimed proudly.
Wu Xingye rolled his eyes at her. “Tsk, you were only eyeing the good food that the shops were providing for their employees, that’s all! It has nothing to do with foresight!”
“Chey, do you think you know everything?!” She rolled her eyes at him in return.
“Of course I know a lot. Haven’t the two of you come to me whenever you need info? I’m known as the Prince of Information at Know-All Agency!”
“Tsk!” The girls sneered at him at the same time.
“Tsk! Bring out the mutton! Let’s have three plates of mutton for a start!” the boy roared.
“This place has very nice mutton. Let’s have six plates instead,” Mu Huan retorted.
“Wow, how generous you are today!” he teased.
“Don’t be shy! For today, let’s eat ’til we need to crawl out of this place!” she declared with the base pride of a tuhao.
“Can we have some alcohol?” Wu Xingye asked with eyes full of anticipation.
“What goes well with hot pot? It should be beer, right?! Well, there’ll be no shortage of beers tonight!”
The boy spurted out two gulps of drinks as he quipped, “Let’s get drunk tonight!”
“Both of you can get drunk. I won’t be drinking.” She made her stand clear to her friends.
“Today is a happy day. Why aren’t you drinking?” both of them asked in unison.
“I’ve sworn that if I were to drink again, I would chop off my hand!” Her stupor had left a deep impression on her!
“No problem, you still have another hand after you chop off one,” the male friend said.

“Get lost!”
He reached out to pinch her face, pretending to be angry and fierce. “Little lass, who are you telling to get lost?!”
Right at this moment, Bao Junyan was in his car when he happened to look up from the stack of documents he was holding. Upon seeing this sight, his face sank. He put down the files in his hands, alighted from the car, and walked into the hot pot store.
PA Wang, who was just walking back to the car after he packed food from the restaurant next door, quickly rushed forward when he saw his boss getting off the car. Thinking that the president had gotten impatient from the long wait, he apologized profusely, “Sorry, President. The business is brisk at this restaurant so the queue is longer than expected. Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“You can keep the takeaway for yourself. And one more thing, cancel the rest of the program for the rest of the day.”
Before the assistant could reply, he walked into the hot pot store.
PA Wang: “…”
Why is the CEO going into a hot pot store? He has never liked hot pot, deeming it unhygienic to eat from the same pot with so many others…
Mu Huan slapped away her friend’s hand. “Don’t get touchy with me. Your sis here is already married.”
She had a strong moral sense. Regardless of the reason for being married, her status of a married woman remained unchanged; hence, she needed to keep a distance from men, even this close male friend of hers.
“Alright, married lady.” The boy found her reaction amusing and was just about to caress her head on impulse when, suddenly, someone grabbed hold of his hand in mid-air. The force rendered by the attacker was so powerful that he thought his wrist was going to break!

He looked up in shock.
He was about to demand an explanation when he heard his friend stammering…
“H-Hubby…”
After giving a glance at his wife, he looked at Wu Xingye and reprimanded sternly, “Since you know that she’s already married, don’t get too cozy with her.”
Wu Xingye: “…”
Is this man Mu Huan’s husband? Why, he’s so young and handsome! He looks like a demi-god!
He recomposed himself and turned to Mu Huan instinctively. “Didn’t you mention that you married a 30-year-old hag?”
Mu Huan: “…”
Bao Junyan is indeed 30 years old…
“Thirty-year-old hag?” Her husband turned to look at her.
Mu Huan: “…”
You are really 30 years old, right…?
