Chapter 621. Fetal Movement (1)
Upon hearing Mu Yuchen’s tone, Zhou Zimo smiled and drank his tea. He muttered to himself for a moment, then sighed, “Ever since we were young, your frame of mind has been different from Su Chen’s and mine. I remember that Elder Su would always describe us like this. Su Chen has the drive. He’s arrogant and stubborn. If we were in the olden times, he could’ve been an authoritative warrior while I’m meticulous in thought and intelligent, but I don’t have enough drive. Many times, I don’t have the manner to control the situation, but I could be a strategist.”
Zhou Zimo then paused as he looked up to stare at Mu Yuchen for a long time before smiling and continuing, “While you have both of our merits combined, sometimes, I think perhaps Su Chen and I should learn from you. Whether in career or in love, a talent like you is just naturally great.”
When Zhou Zimo said that, Mu Yuchen raised his brows. He smiled faintly while his eyes were fixed on Zhou Zimo. Mu Yuchen responded, “I’ve known you and Zhou Zimo for more than 30 years now, but this is the first time I’m hearing you compliment me. I didn’t know you held me in such high regards.”
Zhou Zimo chuckled and kicked him gently. “I’m really saying kind things. Petty people like me don’t easily praise others.”
Mu Yuchen pulled his leg away and bent them as he shot him a look. “I can tell that you’re being kind, but your words just make me feel weird.”
“Get lost! If I say it to Su Chen, then you don’t think it’s a good thing. I won’t plot against you. What are you worried about? Still, this matter is quite complicated, so it might take more time.”
Zhou Zimo was indifferent. He wanted to have some peace and quiet too. Since his family was pushing him hard, he was taking refuge by leaving them then. It was just Mu Yuchen who was eager to get home.
Mu Yuchen noticed Zhou Zimo’s bemused gaze which he refused to hide. He honestly expressed his thoughts, “I’ll get the thing done as soon as possible. I can’t stay here for too long. It’s going to be hard for Xiaye to move around soon and I’m worried about leaving her alone at home.”
Zhou Zimo laughed. “Earlier, I was even telling Su Chen to get a woman soon and that he can’t struggle too far behind, and now we’re barely a step behind you.”
