*Knock!*

With a knock, Cloe opened the door of the office and stepped inside. In her tow followed a group of secretaries that placed different delicacies before Mu Chenyan. There was tea, macarons, cake, and if someone felt like not eating sweet, there was a wide variety of finger foods with tastes ranging from mild to spicy.

"Are you opening a snack bar?" asked Raelle looking at the table full of food.

"It's Miss Mu's first visit to the office, we should be treating her like an honored guest," said Cloe as she stood aside with her hands clasped before her.

Mu Chenyan laughed awkwardly, "It's still way over the top, Cloe."

Cloe scratched her ear and said, "Is it? I got too excited. I apologize."

Mu Chenyan waved her off saying, "It's alright. It's not like we can waste it now, sit down and give me company." Cloe hesitated as she looked in Raelle's direction. Mu Chenyan held her hand and pulled her down saying, "Don't look at my Elle so much, you will fall in love with her."

Cloe placed her hand over her mouth as she laughed and said, "If that's the case, I should look at her more often."

"No, you can't," refused Mu Chenyan. "She's already taken now."

Cloe saw the happiness bursting out of Mu Chenyan's aura as she said the last sentence and smiled at her. She had to say this had to be the unconditional love people talked about. She actually thought it didn't exist. But since the time she came across Mu Chenyan and Raelle, she got to believe in it.

Mu Chenyan took the chopsticks to pick up a chicken wanton before dipping it into the sauce and taking a bite. After she swallowed it, she gave Cloe a thumbs up, "This is so good! It tastes like it's homemade."

Cloe smiled proudly, "I have done thorough research on food around the office building. I know all about where to find the best things to eat."

"Really?" Mu Chenyan was surprised.

"Of course, whenever one travels, one has to get familiar with food there. Food tells you a lot about the place and the people."

"Stop making it sound so good," said Raelle. "You searched for the best place to eat because you can't cook. If you're gonna eat outside daily, you need to know what to eat or where to eat it."

Cloe cursed Raelle mentally for exposing her like that. What was wrong with that? One needed food to live, no?

Mu Chenyan chuckled at that and said, "Isn't there those food apps now that allow you to order food at home? Isn't that more convenient?"

"But what's the fun in eating alone at home?" said Cloe. "I'd rather sit in a restaurant and listen to people's daily hustle and bustle life."

"You like noisy places?" questioned Mu Chenyan.

Cloe leaned closer to her to whisper, "Spending time with a boss who rarely speaks more than two sentences, I have come to love noisy people." Clearing her throat, she looked at Raelle and smiled, "Chief, would you like to eat some?"

"It's not lunch hour yet," replied Raelle as she continued to read the document in her hand.

"Even her hunger works on the dot," muttered Cloe to herself.

Mu Chenyan ate in silence as she continued to think about what Raelle said to her earlier. As she sipped on tea, she finally came to a conclusion. "Okay! I've decided to finally become a part of the society again."

"So, what are you planning to do?" asked Raelle.

Mu Chenyan's shoulders slackened, "That I don't know yet."

"Miss Mu, didn't you study medicine?" asked Cloe.

Mu Chenyan's body stiffened for a moment before she said, "I left in the second year of med school."

"Oh..." was all Cloe could say. "But why did you leave?"

She shrugged her shoulders, "I just realized it wasn't meant for me."

"Wasn't it too late to realize that?" questioned Cloe.

"I was only 20 at that time, how is that late?" Mu Chenyan touched her face as she went on, "How old do you think I am?"

Cloe waved her hands, "No, no! That's not what I meant. Not at all!"

Mu Chenyan sighed out, "Although I'm not that old, I'm still old. There are a lot fewer options for me out there. What should I do?"

"We have a new development project for an island, want to join?" asked Raelle seeing the struggle on Mu Chenyan's face. She really looked like she had no clue what to do.

"My Elle, I love you but I don't want a boss like you." Cloe almost spurted out everything in her mouth but held back with difficulty. Mu Chenyan shook her head at her as she added, "Besides, this business world isn't for me. I'd like to keep my distance." She took a pause and went on, "I don't have a particular skill as well."

"Miss Mu, I think to keep yourself busy you don't need a job. You can find a hobby for yourself as well. It's not you are lacking money."

"I can't think anymore," said Mu Chenyan as she stood up. "I'm gonna spend a day with my friend. Maybe she'll help me find something to do."

"Friend?" echoed Raelle. "You're going to see Hyson's mother?"

"Who else?" asked Mu Chenyan.

"Say thanks to her for the gifts," said Raelle. "Also, don't go empty-handed."

"She'll kick me out if I took something with me."

"Who said you have to take something fancy? You can just take a box of apples for her," suggested Raelle.

"That's a good idea," agreed Mu Chenyan and turned to leave.

Cloe held her hand and smiled strangely, "MC, do you need help carrying that box of apples? It'd be difficult for you to do it on your own."

"It's not difficult at all," replied Mu Chenyan. "I can do it myself."

"No, how can I let you do it?"

Raelle lifted her eyes at stared at Cloe, "Are you that eager to get fired? Disturb Hyson's mother and he won't ever look at you again."

Cloe instantly let Mu Chenyan's hand go as she said, "Have a safe journey, Miss Mu. I won't be seeing you out."

Mu Chenyan was amused by that, "Do you like our Yue Fai?"

Cloe nodded her head, "I have become a fan of his. Instead of his face, I like his voice more. Was just curious to know what kind of a mother he has."

"Don't be so curious," said Mu Chenyan. "Our Yue Fai is indeed very protective when it comes to his mother." With that, she left the office with a clear destination in her mind.
