Chapter 39 - Utterly in love
Muchen flipped through the document for the tenth time, not reading a word on it. "Fuck!" He closed it with a bang and tossed it onto the huge pile that had formed in just a few days. "What the heck is wrong with me?" Mumbling, he gazed at his phone nervously. He hadn’t messaged that brat in two days, and he missed him already.
"Why am I acting like this when we are only... friends?" He massaged his forehead. "Maybe Shao is right... maybe I do have feelings for him."
Muchen had never fallen in love before, so he had no clue how it would even feel. "No, isn’t love supposed to feel different? I never had any butterflies... never felt my heart tremble when I see him... I don’t feel much when I see him. Then is it love?"
"Ah! This is so hard!!!" He laid down on the desk in frustration.
"That’s why I told you to leave the decision to the CEO we hired. Yet, you’re the one who demanded all the decisions go through you," Shao, who had entered the study without realizing, said softly.
Muchen glared his way. "Shut up.... It’s all because of you."
Shao pointed to himself innocently. "Me? What did I do? I’m just an innocent little cutie."
"Tsk," Muchen grunted loudly. "Your blabbering mouth is the cause of this."
"Oh, is that so?" Shao walked closer. "Or is it because of some young Black Powder fan that you’re frustrated?"
