Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 761

Han Muzi’s hand could even feel the chill of the man’s voice coming from the phone, but the familiarity of it still sent shivers down her body. Just as and when she struggled on methods to get closer to Ye Moxuan in an attempt to trigger the return of his memory sooner, he came to her instead.

A sly smile swept underneath the eyes of Han Muzi as she replied to him, “I got it. I will send it over right now.”

The man didn’t suspect anything so he ended the call.

Despite feeling tired and sore on her legs, Han Muzi suddenly became lively as she happily sat back at the sofa to put on her shoes. Without another thought, she went over to the pantry room. As she made the coffee, her mood became even better and her steps were swift.

She understood Ye Moxuan’s temperament clearly because she had been his assistant five years ago. Back then, she was always the one who prepared his coffee. Even though he tried to embarrass her before, he gradually stopped making her life difficult with these trivial matters. That was why she knew his taste very well. Soon after, she was done with the coffee, and she walked out of the secretary room.

It was now lunch hour, so this floor was quiet and there weren’t any people around, not even Miss Lin. Han Muzi walked forward in the corridor while holding the coffee. She heard before that the President’s office was located in the innermost part of this floor; hence she only needed to walk ahead. Finally, she reached the door to the President’s office.

Suddenly, her heart raced without a warning. Han Muzi took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. Han Muzi, what are you nervous for? You are just sending a cup of coffee to him. Have you forgotten what you used to do often back then? Don’t be nervous. She suppressed her anxiety before knocking the door.

“Come in.” A voice devoid of any temperature came from the inside. Although it was hollow, it still drilled deep into Han Muzi’s heart. Then, she opened the door and entered with the coffee.

As she entered, she gave the decor inside the office a thorough look. The traces of renovation showed that the place was just redesigned thoroughly. Even though he lost his memories, the style of his designs and his personality still hadn’t changed one bit. The designs were mainly in cool colors, which gave the office a cold and stern aura.

The office desk and the floor was spotless and it showed that its owner was obsessed with cleanliness. Sigh, he is still the same Ye Moxuan. My Ye Moxuan.

Han Muzi secretly smiled while handing the coffee over to his hand. “President, your coffee.” As she bent her waist to send the coffee close to him, her ponytail at the back of her head unconsciously leaned against her arm while letting out a fragrant scent.

When she came in, Ye Moxuan didn’t even raise his head since he was busy with his work. At that moment, a fragrant scent of a woman started to linger around him and he finally realized something was wrong.

Afterward, he frowned while raising his eyes. Just as and when Han Muzi bent her waist to hand over the coffee, Ye Moxuan raised his head and Han Muzi’s delicate face appeared right in his sight. At the same time, Han Muzi also lifted her head and both of their eyes met.

The distance between them was rather close as Han Muzi stared blankly at him and was unable to look away. She wasn’t some lovesick lady, but the feeling that she regained something after losing it really made her want to look at him a few more times—even if it was just once!

“Are you done looking?” The sharp voice growled without warning. Han Muzi saw Ye Moxuan’s thin lips opening gently while his eyes were filled with mockery toward her.

She regained her composure and took a few steps back before shaking her head. “I’m sorry.”

Ye Moxuan chuckled while his eyes were filled with disdain as if he had already figured her out. “You really are good with your artifice,” he sneered.

He was surprised to find out that she was the one who stood out from the crowd during the interview and got the position as the secretary’s assistant. Most importantly, this secretary of his was once Yuchi Jin’s secretary and it was hard for anyone to please her. Yet, this strange woman in front of him actually passed it just like that. It makes sense now. She has already used her artifice on me to make me remember her, never mind on other people.

Artifice? Han Muzi blinked her beautiful eyes while wondering what Ye Moxuan mentioned about. Is he talking about the way I used to get in the company?

As she thought about it, Ye Moxuan lifted his hand to send the coffee to his lips and he took an elegant sip. In the next second, he was speechless as the thick aroma of the coffee burst on the tip of his tongue and filled his mouth. This feeling…

Ye Moxuan squinted at Han Muzi with suspicion. “Did you make this coffee?”

His voice dragged Han Muzi back to reality, so she nodded instinctively. “Yes.” Then, she asked nervously, “Is there any problem with it?”

Seeing him looking at her suspiciously while frowning, it seemed as though he was dissatisfied with her. After that, Han Muzi doubted herself on whether she had brewed the coffee properly. Perhaps she added some sugar because she was carried away by her excitement earlier. It doesn’t add up though. I was very careful with it.

Therefore, Han Muzi carefully gave Ye Moxuan a thorough look before she asked him softly, “Is the coffee bad?”

Ye Moxuan ignored her, but he saw the complexity in her eyes. Then, his lips twitched. “Get out.”

Han Muzi was confused. She wanted to tell him that he hadn’t commented on whether the coffee was good or not and it really was awkward for her to walk out without him telling her anything. Nonetheless, she didn’t dare to say much after facing his cold eyes, so she only nodded before exiting the office.

As soon as she was gone, Ye Moxuan lifted the coffee and took another sip. He kept on drinking it, one sip at a time until the whole cup was empty. Then, he stopped and stared blankly at the bits of residue from the coffee. He never expected that the coffee made by this strange woman matched his taste perfectly, as though it was custom made for him.

Ye Moxuan instinctively licked his lips before placing the cup aside.

When Han Muzi returned to the secretary room, she became distressed. I don’t know what Ye Moxuan is thinking now. Why did he show me that expression and let me go after drinking the coffee? Did I make the coffee properly?

Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but get up and head to the pantry room, whereupon she remade another cup of coffee. Then, she tasted it for herself and realized that there was nothing wrong with it. Isn’t this the taste that Ye Moxuan prefers? Does a person’s taste change when he loses his memory?

However, what worried her the most was that she might have made a mistake during the process before. If there is a next time, I must test the coffee first before sending it to him. At this point, Han Muzi made up her mind before going to the secretary room with the coffee.

Soon after, it was time to get back to work. When Miss Lin came into the secretary room, she received a call from the office telling her to send a cup of coffee to the President’s office. She put down the phone and ordered Han Muzi straight away, “Muzi, please make a cup of coffee and send it to me.”

“Alright.” Han Muzi nodded before going to the pantry room. This time, she had learned her lesson, so she secretly took a sip herself to make sure that it was fine. Then, she brought it to Miss Lin.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 762

With Miss Lin around, she didn’t dare to act on her own and send the coffee to Ye Moxuan herself, so she brought it straight to Miss Lin. “Miss Lin, the coffee is done,” she said softly.

Miss Lin gave her a look of approval before pressing her lips and smiled. “Not bad. Send this document downstairs.”

Han Muzi quietly received it. “Alright.” In front of Miss Lin, she tried her best to act obedient and lovely so that she could create an image of herself as a newbie. If she showed too much of her impatience, Miss Lin had the right to fire her.

While Han Muzi went to send the document, Miss Lin brought the coffee over to the President’s office. Knock-knock!

“Come in.” Hearing the knock from the door, Ye Moxuan lifted his eyes to have a look. He thought that the strange woman would send the coffee over herself, but surprisingly, it was Miss Lin this time. For some reason, he unconsciously furrowed his eyebrows as his eyes landed on the cup of coffee in her hand.

After he drank the coffee made by that weird woman, he could never forget the taste of it, so he asked her to deliver the coffee while Miss Lin was still at work. Unexpectedly, it was Miss Lin who brought the coffee herself. Could this coffee be made by that strange woman?

“Young Master Xuan, your coffee.” In the past, the company was always managed by Yuchi Jin personally and everyone called him President Yuchi. Ever since Yuchi Shen replaced his position, everyone called him Young Master Xuan instead since the word ‘Shen’ in his name sounded somewhat similar. Besides, addressing him as President Yuchi would clash with how they addressed Yuchi Jin.

She placed the coffee on the desk and it sent forth a delicate smell.

Ye Moxuan’s eyes rolled as he picked it up to take a sip. The taste is still the same. This is made by that woman. Nice! If I ever want to drink coffee in the future, I could just order my secretary to bring it to me so that the strange woman doesn’t think that I like her coffee.

“Young Master Xuan, please take a look at this document.” After seeing him taking a sip of the coffee, Miss Lin handed Ye Moxuan a file in her hand and she talked business with him.

About one or two minutes later, Ye Moxuan had already finished his coffee. As Miss Lin prepared her stuff to leave, he ordered her to send in another cup of coffee ten minutes later and she readily agreed.

After Miss Lin exited the office, she felt confused. This is weird. Why haven’t I seen Young Master Xuan drink this much coffee? Is it because he is busy with his work today? Or is it because he didn’t have a good sleep last night? Is it because he is in low spirits today that he needs the assistance of coffee? But… seeing his face, he seemed to be in good spirits. This really is weird.

After she got back, she made the coffee for Ye Moxuan in record time. Initially, she wanted Han Muzi to make it, but she wouldn’t be back in ten minutes, so she had to make it herself. She made the coffee and delivered it over to Ye Moxuan herself.

However, he took a sip of it and placed the cup down, never touching the cup ever again.

Miss Lin noticed it and raised her eyebrows. “Young Master Xuan, you’ve had a lot of coffee today. Did you not rest well last night?”

Ye Moxuan nodded and pressed his thin lips before raising her head to speak coldly, “I’ve heard that you’ve gotten an assistant, right?”

When he mentioned Han Muzi, a trace of approval swept underneath Miss Lin’s eyes as she nodded with agreement. “Yes. I’ve done many interviews for a few days and finally, I have found the one that I’m satisfied with.”

Ye Moxuan nodded to give his regards.

“If there isn’t anything else, I will go back to the secretary room now, alright?”

“Sure.” She turned away and took two steps before she was halted by Ye Moxuan. “Miss Lin.”

She stopped her steps and looked back at him suspiciously. “Yes, Young Master Xuan?” Today, she felt that Ye Moxuan acted a bit odd since he never asked about her matters, but he had actually asked about her assistant.

The gold-plated pen kept on spinning between Ye Moxuan’s delicate fingers while he landed his eyes on Miss Lin before saying calmly, “Miss Lin, you are my grandfather’s valued secretary, so you only need to deal with the important documents. As for those trivial matters…” He trailed off for a moment. His black eyes were so enigmatic that no one could figure what he was thinking until he spoke again, “You can just hand them to others to deal with.”

Miss Lin was taken aback. Even though Yuchi Shen looks indifferent and cold on the outside, he is still concerned for others. She smiled gently while feeling a bit moved. “Young Master Xuan, I’m still your secretary after all. Even if President Yuchi isn’t here anymore, I still need to fulfill my responsibilities.”

“Miss Lin, just do as I say. Otherwise, it’ll be hard for me to explain to my grandfather.” Yes. I’ll just put all the blame on my grandfather. It’s perfect.

When Miss Lin returned to the secretary room, she couldn’t help but sigh. Outstanding people are always likeable and he is so considerate too. He must have felt that I’m the senior of the Yuchi Group, so he let me deal with the important matters while leaving the trivial ones for others to deal with.

On the other side, Han Muzi ran around to deliver the documents like a minor staff. After she sent one, another one came. During this period, there were some places she wasn’t sure about, so she asked other people for directions. At the end, some even pointed her to the opposite direction, causing her to be lost for a long time, so she could only go back.

After that, she learned her lesson. She made notes of every place she went to and spent some time to be clear about the company’s layout, so that she wouldn’t be led in the opposite direction anymore.

Actually, situations like these were normal in big companies. After all, there were a lot of people. Even though everyone didn’t have the time to deal with each other’s matters, if one were to ask someone for help, the person might not necessarily want to help and some might even try to trick others. As for that person who pointed her to the opposite direction, it was obviously a prank.

Finally, Han Muzi went back to the secretary room while dragging her sore legs. When she saw Miss Lin, she immediately apologized to her, “I’m sorry, Miss Lin. I went to the wrong place just now, so… I came back late. Do you have anything I need to help with?”

Seeing her running around for a day and that Han Muzi’s face was in bad shape, Miss Lin shook her head. “There isn’t anything else for you to do yet. Just sit down and have a look at the documents.”

“Alright.” However, after a short while, Han Muzi became busy again. When it was time to get off work, the stressful hours finally came to an end and she could head home.

Miss Lin patted her shoulders gently. “You’ve been working hard today. I can see that you can bear the hardships. If you continue the good work, your treatment will be better after your probation period ends. In the future… if I decide to retire, this position will be yours.”

Listening to her, Han Muzi twitched the corner of her lips and said hurriedly, “Miss Lin, you are thinking too far ahead.” She didn’t know how long she was going to be here. Her aim was to help Ye Moxuan regain his memories. Once he recovered his memories, he would probably leave this place along with her. By then, there was no point for her to continue staying here.

After she was done packing up her stuff, she got off work and went home in exhaustion. Just as she reached home, she quickly made a video call to her little precious one without even catching a breath.

“Mommy!” Inside the video, Little Bean was in high spirits as he was especially happy to see her with his bright face.

Seeing Little Bean this way, the corners of Han Muzi’s lips gradually curled upward.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 763

“Little Bean, did you study hard today? You didn’t bully anyone in school, did you?”

Listening to her, Little Bean immediately pouted in front of her and accused her, “Other moms are usually afraid that their precious baby will be bullied, but Mommy, you are worried that I’ll bully someone!”

“Of course I am. Look at who our Little Bean is. It will only be you bullying others and not the other way around, right?” Han Muzi smiled as she saw his pouted mouth and fuming face. She really wanted to pinch it, but it was too bad that they were on video call. Although she could see him, she still couldn’t touch him. Two of the most important men in her life were currently in that kind of situation, which made her feel powerless.

“Hmph, you’re a bad mommy. You’re the one who bullies me.”

Han Muzi smiled, but she didn’t reply to him.

After a while, Little Bean’s eyelids suddenly drooped and he gazed at her miserably. “Mommy, can I go over to see you? Aunt Yan said that you have found Daddy. I… I also want…”

Han Muzi hadn’t planned to tell Little Bean about Ye Moxuan’s memory loss because she knew that the little brat would be devastated after knowing that his daddy couldn’t recognize him anymore. Hence, she only told him, “You can’t yet. I have a lot of stuff to deal with here. Don’t come here, Little Bean. Wait till I’m done with everything and I’ll bring Daddy home to you, alright?”

“Hmph!” Little Bean grunted loudly. “Mommy, why do you always have to deal with everything by yourself? I want to help too!”

“You’re just a kid. What can you possibly help me with? And also…” Han Muzi lowered her eyes as darkness swept underneath them. “There are still a lot of things that require the person involved to handle by herself.” As soon as she was done explaining, she realized that her expression was becoming downhearted to Little Bean, so she raised her head and revealed a smile. “Little Bean, you must be obedient and wait for Mommy and Daddy to come home.”

“Okay.”

“If Little Bean is well-behaved, then by that time… I will reward you. Is that alright?”

“Mm-hmm. Then Mommy, you have to keep your promise…”

After the mother and son had their conversation for a while, Yan came over and patted Little Bean’s head right away to remind him to take a bath. Then, she seized the video call and chatted with Han Muzi. “Muzi, how is it going on your side? Is there any progress?”

I have been running for the whole day and now I’m as tired as a dog, but I still can’t see Ye Moxuan every time, so what did I get out of it actually? Maybe the next few days will be the same as today and it’ll be difficult for me to see him.

Seeing that she wasn’t happy, Yan roughly guessed the situation. “Really? Not a bit of progress? Did you even see his face once?”

Listening to her, Han Muzi startled and said, “I did see him, but…” She hesitated. I did see him, but why do I feel that Ye Moxuan’s impression of me has gotten worse? Yet, Miss Lin didn’t mention it when she came to work, so I’m not sure whether he likes my coffee or not.

“But what? Spit it out now. Are you trying to frustrate me?” Yan slapped her thigh out of frustration on the screen. She looked like she was about to flip a table and her expression amused Han Muzi.

“Pfft! Even I’m not that hurried. What are you hurrying for?”

“Ugh.” Yan was already frustrated and Han Muzi laughed instead, so Yan only said to her resignedly, “So this is what it feels like to be the backseat driver. It serves me right to be frustrated and you are there laughing at it!”

Han Muzi couldn’t help but laugh. She thought, Maybe this is what real best friends are like. I’m not anxious about my matters yet she is already all fired up. “Fine. I’ll tell you. We did meet, but not for long.”

“What do you mean?” Yan scratched her head. “Didn’t you tell me before that you’ve been officially recruited by the Yuchi Group?”

“Yes, but… we need to take it slow. This is just my first day at work, so I can’t be too impatient.”

“Alright. Since you’re not in a hurry, then I won’t rush you. I’d better consider my lifelong event instead.”

Both of them talked about other subjects for a while before Yan saw the tiredness in Han Muzi’s face, so she didn’t want to disturb her any longer and asked her to rest instead. Afterward, they ended the call.

After placing her phone on the desk, Han Muzi got up and wanted to have a bath. However, when she got up, she realized her calves were so sore that she wasn’t able to take big steps. Hence, she could only walk forward in small steps.

When she was done with her bath, Han Muzi limped forward. As she sat on the couch, she discovered that the skin on her heel was torn off. She rubbed her calf while smiling bitterly. I haven’t done this kind of work for a long time now. That’s why my leg is so sore after a day of running around.

“Gosh, Han Muzi, you really are dramatic.” She ridiculed herself quietly since her mood was a bit low. However, soon after, she pulled herself together and lifted her head to give her cheek a pinch. “You are now the only person who can help your husband get his memory back. You can’t feel defeated after such a small hurdle. From now on, you need to keep on going!”

On the second day, Han Muzi changed into a pair of flat shoes and very loose clothes. She was actually pregnant for two months and it wasn’t obvious, so she didn’t need to wear it like this. However, after giving it a thought, she still chose to wear it because it would be easy for others to guess that she was pregnant if her belly grew big one day and she suddenly needed to wear loose clothes.

As soon as she arrived at the secretary room, Miss Lin instructed her to clean up the office. “Young Master Xuan will reach the company within an hour. You need to clean up his office before he reaches there. And remember, there must not be any dust left. Our President loves cleanliness and he will be furious if you’re sloppy with it.”

“Yes. Alright.” Han Muzi nodded before going straight to the President’s office.

Naturally, she knew of Ye Moxuan’s habits. As for cleaning the place spotlessly, his office was already clean enough, so she didn’t need to do much work when cleaning the place. Because of that, she was able to return to the secretary office in less than 20 minutes. When Miss Lin saw her coming back, she was taken aback. “You’re done so soon?”

“Yes, Miss Lin.”

“Are you sure you’ve cleaned up everything?”

“Yes.” Han Muzi nodded. She was certain that she cleaned everything as the place was truly spotless.

Seeing the sincerity in her face, Miss Lin didn’t feel that she was a slacker, hence she didn’t delve too deep into it and assumed that she was effective with her work. However, the moment Ye Moxuan came to work, he suddenly called her before coldly asking who was responsible for the hygiene today. Miss Lin reacted to it right away. Oh no. She was dumbfounded for a few seconds before she said to him, “Is the hygiene… not good enough?”

“Before I explode, tell that person to come over here and clean everything up again.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 764

Just as and when Han Muzi came back after sending some documents, she saw Miss Lin standing by the door of the secretary room with a disappointed expression. “Miss Lin?”

Miss Lin glanced at her with disappointment in her eyes. “I thought that you were a focused person.”

Hearing her words, Han Muzi felt her heart pacing while her lips opened faintly. “Miss Lin, what happened?” she asked.

“When I sent you to clean up Young Master Xuan’s office this morning, what did you say to me?”

Han Muzi recalled it and uttered the same words she said to her before, “Miss Lin, you said that Young Master Xuan loves cleanliness, and there mustn’t be any dust left.”

“Then did you do what you were told?”

Han Muzi nodded. “Of course I did. How could I not do it?”Only God knew that she had given her all for this job.

“Are you sure you followed everything I told you?” Miss Lin squinted at her and noticed that there weren’t any debris in her clean eyes. She didn’t look like she was lying to her either. Is it true that she didn’t slack off? But, if the place is well cleaned, why would Young Master Xuan be mad? Miss Lin thought about it repeatedly and she could only say to her, “Follow me.”

Afterward, Han Muzi followed behind her and both of them went toward the President’s office. On the way, Han Muzi felt uneasy about the situation. Am I getting fired on my second day? No, I can’t be fired. I must think of something to deal with this.

Therefore, she thought of multiple coping methods in her mind, but because of her anxiety, her mind was currently blank, making it hard for her to think of anything.

When they reached the door of the office, Han Muzi’s heartbeat raced. The door wasn’t closed and it was wide open, but Miss Lin still knocked the door out of courtesy. “Young Master Xuan?”

Then, the man’s low voice, which was devoid of any temperature, came from inside. “Come in.”

The whole office was filled with a cold atmosphere. Miss Lin closed her eyes. It was obvious that she didn’t want to get herself into this mess, so she took a deep breath before turning toward Han Muzi and smiled. “Young Master Xuan wants to see you.”

Han Muzi remained quiet. Even though her face is smiling, why do I feel there’s something strange about her?

“Miss Lin, about that—”

Quickly, Miss Lin pulled her arm and dragged her inside without giving her a chance to finish her words. “You’re on your own now. Good luck,” she murmured.

Before Han Muzi got the chance to clear her confusion, Miss Lin was gone, and she was the only one left there.

“What are you doing standing there?” A man’s cold voice filled the room. After feeling a chill on her back, she turned over and met with Ye Moxuan’s dark eyes. She was shocked as he said to her, “Come here and look at the mess you’ve done.”

Me? Han Muzi did not even know what she had done, but according to Ye Moxuan’s tone, it wasn’t something good, so she went over to him.

“Young Master… Xuan.” She still felt a bit awkward addressing him this way, but there wasn’t any other way as she needed to blend in. After all, he was already given another name. She walked up to him not far away and looked at him suspiciously.

When she got close to him, the fragrant smell on her lingered over again, causing him to breathe in her fragrance. Ye Moxuan smelled the scent of a woman before, but the scent on this strange woman didn’t annoy him at all. He scanned her and she returned the gaze with her clear eyes. Her face was innocent as if she didn’t come to acknowledge her mistake. Then, Ye Moxuan pointed to the windowsill.

Han Muzi went over there hurriedly and surveyed it carefully. She didn’t find anything wrong with it, so she said to him, “It’s cleaned spotlessly. There isn’t any dust.”

He held back his temper and squinted his eyes. “Are you sure?”

“I’m not sure,” Han Muzi replied.

Ye Moxuan was rendered speechless. That’s a quick change.

When he was in silence, Han Muzi admitted to her mistake straight away without demur. “I admit. I didn’t do my job seriously. I’ll clean this place again immediately.” No matter what happened, it was right for her to acknowledge her mistake since she couldn’t go head to head with him. Without waiting for his reaction, she went out of the office to retrieve some cleaning utensils and came back to clean the office all over again.

She used a wet cloth to wipe the windowsill while figuring out what went wrong with it. As she was examining it, Ye Moxuan’s voice came to her from the back. “Coffee.”

Han Muzi was taken aback for a second before turning her head toward him. Her movements caused him to raise his eyebrows as he was displeased. “Do you not hear me?”

“I’ll go right away!” She placed down the wet cloth in her hand and exited the office quickly.

Watching her slim back, Ye Moxuan realized that she was actually limping. The movement was so small that he wouldn’t notice if he didn’t look at it carefully or maybe… it was because she was walking too fast. Did she hurt her leg? When the thought flashed through his mind, he squinted his eyes suspiciously while an undercurrent surged beneath them. Damn it. What am I thinking?

While Han Muzi went to the pantry room to make a cup of coffee for Ye Moxuan, she felt joyful in her heart. Although he frowned his eyebrows yesterday while drinking her coffee, he didn’t complain about it when she made the second one, which meant that her dose yesterday was correct. However, to ensure that nothing went wrong, Han Muzi secretly tasted the Ye Moxuan’s coffee. After she was sure of it, she brought the coffee over to him.

Ye Moxuan was already going through his work with his laptop open. When Han Muzi placed the coffee on the desk for him, he didn’t say anything to her, so she hurriedly went to wipe the windowsill.

The windowsill was wide and big while its surface was covered by a layer of thin cushion. Han Muzi realized that not only was the quality of the cushion excellent, its color was also monotonous. Did he choose it himself? As she thought about it, she curiously bent over and lifted the corner of the cushion to have a look.

Surprisingly, she discovered that there was a layer of thin dust underneath it. It was even obvious under the sunlight. Then, she stretched her finger out to wipe it and her white fingertip was suddenly stained with dust afterward.

At this point, Han Muzi finally understood the problem. So… he was referring to the dust under the cushion. She felt gloomy while bending over to wipe away the dust. After she turned her head back, she happened to see Ye Moxuan lifting his hand to drink the cup of coffee.

The sunlight came at the right time. He sat in the office while sipping on the coffee elegantly with his delicate face. Along with the interior style, it felt like he was a handsome man drawn by a famous artist.

A thought flashed through Han Muzi’s mind as she realized that she drank his coffee before, and he, without knowing it, drank the coffee she had drank before. Initially, she did not want to do this, but as she thought about the relationship between her and Ye Moxuan, she felt nothing wrong to have a drink before him.

As she thought about it, a smile slowly crossed Han Muzi’s lips. She was willing to get close to him gradually like this to let him remember himself so that he would be willingly and happily return to her—instead of telling him everything and insisting that he accept it because it was the truth.

“Do I look good?”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 765

“Do I look good?”

Han Muzi was still thinking about Ye Moxuan kissing her unknowingly, which she thought was fun. That was why after hearing the question, she unconsciously nodded. However, she realized soon after that something was wrong. There is only me and Ye Moxuan left in the office. Who could he be asking except for me?

As she came around, Ye Moxuan had already stood up at some point, and his eyes landed straight on her face while he asked her mockingly. Her ears were heating up as she realized she had accidentally fallen into a trance while staring at him.

Han Muzi could only pretend nothing had happened, so she turned her head over to wipe the windowsill mechanically.

Tap, tap. She heard footsteps getting closer from behind as though Ye Moxuan had stood up. The firm footsteps slowly approached her, and each step felt like a stomp on her heart. As he got closer, Han Muzi’s heartbeat accelerated. She didn’t know what was going on with her. Obviously, the both of them had known each other for a long time, and now, Ye Moxuan was the one who couldn’t recognize her. Why am I still restless when he comes close to me?

Han Muzi held the wet cloth tight in her hand. When she turned away to escape, she happened to run straight into Ye Moxuan’s arms. “Ah!”

The next second, Ye Moxuan stretched his hands out and trapped her within his embrace.

Han Muzi unconsciously used her hands to protect her chest while she widened her eyes to look at him in disbelief. What is he doing? It was clear that he avoided me extensively that day. Why did he suddenly take the initiative to come close to me?

“You came into Yuchi Group because of me, right?” His eyes were cold, but his voice was menacing. His imposing figure was standing in front of her, and when viewed from the back, it looked as though he had almost engulfed her. “That day at the entrance, you also did it on purpose.” He wasn’t asking her; instead, he sounded sure of it.

Han Muzi was rendered speechless. Of course, she couldn’t admit to it. If she told him that she came in just for him, he might haul her out of the company. After all, he wasn’t the same Ye Moxuan as before. Therefore, she shook her head vigorously and denied it.

Although she kept on denying and shaking her head in front of him, her clean eyes still spelled panic, as if she was lying. Other than that… there were also traces of other emotions. As to what they were, Ye Moxuan couldn’t see them clearly. Then, he squinted his eyes before bending over to get closer to her and have a clearer look.

Just like that, Han Muzi saw that his body was leaning closer to her. His warm breath even enveloped her face, which caused her heartbeat to accelerate.

Creak! A sound came from the door, and it shocked Han Muzi. George stood next to the door of the office as he was stunned by the scene he just saw, as if he had just discovered a new world.

After Han Muzi got her senses back, she bent over and squirmed out of Ye Moxuan’s arms. Then, she escaped the office as though she was caught in the act by someone. When she ran past George, he stared at her with amusement. As soon as she was gone, George put one hand in his pocket and chuckled.

“Yuchi Shen, you really surprise me everytime. Wasn’t it rumored that you weren’t fond of women? I’ve heard that you don’t even bat an eye on any woman who hit on you. But now…” George was really taken aback by him. Then, he shook his head resignedly and clicked his tongue. “I never knew that you’re just like me.”

Ye Moxuan remained in the same posture as before. When he heard his words, he retracted his hands and went back to his desk with a cold face. That’s such a pity. Just when I was about to see through her eyes, she ran away. There was still half of the coffee left, so he lifted the cup to his lips.

Meanwhile, George had already walked up to him while he looked at him scoundrelly. “Did you kiss her?”

Ye Moxuan froze at the moment he wanted to drink the coffee. Fortunately, he hadn’t started drinking it, otherwise… he might actually choke on it after listening to George’s words. He turned his head over, and his eyes fell sullenly on him.

After seeing him pinning a girl in a kabedon, George was sure that Ye Moxuan was the same kind of person he was, so he didn’t feel terrified when he squinted his cold eyes at him. Instead, he walked toward him while raising his eyebrows. “How did it feel?”

Ye Moxuan retracted his eyes and sat on the chair while holding the cup. “Don’t impose your filthy mind on my matters.” He lowered his head to take a sip of the coffee. The taste roamed freely in his mouth while he slowly spoke, “I’m different from you.”

George clucked his tongue. “How are you different from me? I actually thought that you and I were different before; after all, everyone in the company thought that you weren’t fond of women, and you ignored every girl who hit on you. I really thought you were that kind of a person. But what did I see just now? Hmm, what did I see?”

George thought about that moment just now when he trapped the lady in his arms while leaning his body against her. It is obvious he was trying to kiss her, right?

Ye Moxuan pressed his lips as the aura around him got colder. “You’ve come for something?”

As he brought this up, George immediately became serious and nodded. “Of course there is something. You know about that old man in my house?”

Ye Moxuan maintained his composure while he lowered his head to look at his notebook. His face was so indifferent that it seemed as though he didn’t notice the person in front of him.

“He clearly knows how much I love to enjoy life and how much I love beautiful women, but that old man actually forced a fiancée to me. I had someone look into her, and afterward, I realized that the woman’s looks… fall too far from my usual standard. I also heard that she has a strong personality, which means she is one mean lady. If I get together with this woman in the future, she’d control my every action, wouldn’t she?”

Ye Moxuan ignored him while his delicate fingers were still typing the keyboard. His face was indifferent, as always.

George was already used to this attitude of his, so he didn’t take notice of it and continued his rant. “Of course, I won’t agree to this, but that old man warned me if I don’t go with her, he will cut off all of my bank cards. Yuchi Shen, you must think of a way to help me. Yuchi Shen, do you hear me? Think of a plan for me quickly.”

Ye Moxuan lifted his head, and his cold eyes fell on his face. “Get out,” he growled at him ruthlessly.

George was left silent. Goddamn it. What kind of a friend is he? He can’t even think of a plan in such a crucial moment. “Why don’t you meet that woman for me? If she sees you, she’ll definitely fall for you. By that time, the old man won’t be able to bother me anymore.”

Ye Moxuan sneered, “In your dreams.”

Since he wasn’t inclined to help, George had no other way. He got so angry that he simply sat on his couch and crossed his legs like a scoundrel. “Fine. Since you don’t want to help, I’ll just stay here in your office, and I’ll also live off you from now on. After the old man cuts off my bank cards, I’ll move over to your house since Grandfather Yuchi won’t chase me away.”

“Have it your way.” Ye Moxuan’s face was still indifferent as he didn’t care about his situation. He acted as if the fortune of the Yuchi family wasn’t his.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 766

F*ck! George cursed in his heart. Is Yuchi Shen human? No, can he even be human?

Despite how much he said, Yuchi Shen’s face didn’t give away any unnecessary expressions. In front of him, George was like a transparent man, unable to make him react.

George couldn’t stand it any longer. He might not have known Yuchi Shen for a long time, but they were kindred spirits. During the short time that they had known each other, Yuchi Shen always had a cold expression; his facial expression remained the same no matter who he met. He treated women even more coldly—like an indifferent cold-blooded beast.

Be that as it may… the past two days were different.

George saw Yuchi Shen pin a woman against the wall in a kabe-don. Moreover, this was the same woman George had previously met in the elevator. At the time, George said he wanted to deliver the keys in person, but Yuchi Shen didn’t agree to it and took the keys back himself instead. George felt that something was off at the time, but he didn’t expect the two of them to progress so quickly.

Looking down at the sofa he was sitting on, he suddenly had an idea. He smiled wickedly and asked lecherously, “By the way, have you done it with her?”

Ye Moxuan’s hand paused mid-motion, and his sharp eyes swept toward George.

There it is! George wanted to know how Yuchi Shen looked when he was highly irritated or when he was bothered about something. Without fearing the consequences, he continued testing Yuchi Shen. “I took a look at that woman. She’s got a great body—curves in all the right places. She also seems like the pure and innocent type. This type of woman… would be exciting to toy with.”

As he spoke, he even gestured with his hands—it looked rather obscene. He failed to notice the sudden drop in temperature in the office. By the time he had noticed something wrong with the atmosphere in the office, it was too late. George saw Ye Moxuan talking into his phone with a cold voice, “Hello, Mr. Joe. This is Yuchi Shen. That’s right, George is here with me.”

F*ck! George jumped up from the sofa and approached Yuchi Shen, gnashing his teeth in anger. He wanted to snatch the phone away from Yuchi Shen, but lacked the courage to do so.

George dared to play such a joke on Yuchi Shen simply because his relationships had been interfered with. However, he truly did not have the guts to snatch something out of Yuchi Shen’s hands and could only stare helplessly as Yuchi Shen talked on the phone.

“George asked me to replace him on the blind date. He said that he wasn’t satisfied with your arrangement and wanted to sever his relationship with you,” Yuchi Shen spoke those harsh words without changing his expression.

George was frozen in place; the expression on his face gradually vanished. There’s no point thinking about it, I can already hear the old man’s roar.

After ending the call, Yuchi Shen put aside his phone and looked at George in a cold and detached manner. “You were saying?”

George gritted his teeth. “You’re brutal. I won’t talk about it anymore, okay?”

Indeed, he was unhappy with the old man’s arrangement, but he had to rely on the old man for everything. He did not dare to go against the old man directly; why else would he come to Yuchi Shen in search of a solution? I never expected him to take revenge on me just because I said something about his woman! That was uncalled for! It’s just a woman! He had noticed that the woman was quite pretty and had a great figure, but… Did he really have to go that far?

In the end, George gritted his teeth and spat, “Just you wait. Soon, you’ll be in my shoes. The old man forced a fiancée on me; that means in the future, Grandfather Yuchi will force a fiancée on you too! If you won’t help me now, in the future, I won’t help you either!” He left the company in a huff after he finished speaking.

After George left, Ye Moxuan remained unaffected and expressionlessly stared at the screen. But those darn words that George said echoed in his ears. George is a b*stard. But he was talking about someone else after all, and it was that strange woman nonetheless. However, Ye Moxuan felt very uncomfortable after listening to those words.

He picked up his coffee and took a sip, his eyes darkening considerably. Honestly, she does have a pretty good figure.

Han Muzi exited the office as if she was escaping something, then went into the bathroom nearby. She rushed out of the office nervously, clutching only a wet cloth in her hand. The rest of the cleaning tools were left inside.

She didn’t dare to go back in now; she didn’t know what frame of mind and attitude she should have when facing Ye Moxuan. Up till now, her heart was still beating wildly. She looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was flushed and even her ears felt hot. If no one had walked in just now, would he have kissed me? But… why would he kiss me? Logically speaking, if he had lost his memory, he wouldn’t have done such things. She was most familiar with Ye Moxuan’s personality and knew that to be the case.

After mulling it over, she dumped all the blame on the man who had walked in on them just now. If it wasn’t for him walking in suddenly, she would have known what Ye Moxuan had intended to do next. Right now, she felt a little excited but also a little disappointed. She was excited that Ye Moxuan had gotten slightly closer to her, but was disappointed that he was still not intimate with her.

She washed the wet cloth until it was clean and hung it out to dry. Resting inside the bathroom for a while, she calmed her emotions before returning to the secretary’s office.

Miss Lin seemed especially nervous. Upon Han Muzi’s return, she hurriedly stood up and walked up to her. “How did it go? How did it go?”

Han Muzi glanced at Miss Lin, who was rubbing her hands together with a nosy expression and instantly made the connection as to why Miss Lin couldn’t wait to push her into the office just now. “Nothing much happened,” she said softly with a small smile.

Miss Lin seemed puzzled. “What do you mean by nothing much?” She looked behind her then looked at her again. “Didn’t Young Master Xuan get angry?”

Angry? Han Muzi thought back on it. In her memories, Ye Moxuan had always treated all unrelated persons like this. He had been curt and wielded a sharp tongue, but that did not mean he was angry at all. When he was really angry, it was terrifying. There might not even be a chance for him to speak harshly. She thought about it and shook her head. “No, he didn’t.”

“He didn’t?” Miss Lin’s tone went up a few octaves. She widened her eyes as if she couldn’t believe it. “He didn’t lose his temper? That’s impossible!”

Just now, she had heard the warning signs of Young Master Xuan’s anger over the phone. So, she led Han Muzi to the entrance of his office and asked her to enter alone. Then, she went back to the secretary’s office to wait. She had even accepted that if Han Muzi had angered Yuchi Shen and gotten fired, she would not be able to change that outcome. After all, even though Han Muzi was the candidate she had painstakingly chosen, Yuchi Shen was the boss right now, so if he was unhappy with her assistant, it would still be impossible for Han Muzi to stay on in the company.

Since Han Muzi had signed a contract, when the time came, she would just have to provide some compensation and comfort her. She could even introduce Han Muzi, who was a good person, to other jobs in the future. Unexpectedly, Han Muzi came back safe and sound, saying that Yuchi Shen had not lost his temper with her.

That’s impossible! Perhaps, he couldn’t even be bothered to get angry since he had already fired her? As she thought of it, Miss Lin chased after Han Muzi and asked, “Then, did Young Master Xuan say anything else?”

F*ck! George cursed in his heart. Is Yuchi Shen human? No, can he even be human?

Despite how much he said, Yuchi Shen’s face didn’t give away any unnecessary expressions. In front of him, George was like a transparent man, unable to make him react.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 768

Not sleeping well at night? Han Muzi recalled what Su Jiu had mentioned to her before. According to Su Jiu, the reason Ye Moxuan lost his memories was that he had suffered from a severe head injury. Is he unable to sleep well because of the trauma to his brain?

Thinking back on it, she remembered that when she met him, the dark circles under his eyes were very prominent, indicating that he had not been sleeping well. Despite getting such poor sleep, he was drinking so much coffee to stay alert. Does he have a death wish?

At the thought, she felt utterly distressed. How can this guy care so little for his health? Hence, when she got off work, she went to the department store immediately and bought a can of skimmed milk powder. She took it home and brought it to the company the very next day.

The first cup in the morning—milk.

When Miss Lin saw the glass of milk, she thought Han Muzi had made it for herself, so she said, “Zi, I don’t drink milk. You don’t have to make a cup for me. Hurry up and brew the coffee Young Master Xuan asked for, alright?”

Han Muzi awkwardly replied, “Miss Lin, this glass of milk is for Young Master Xuan.”

Miss Lin said nothing. Han Muzi felt a little embarrassed. Unexpectedly, Miss Lin had misunderstood her. She mustered up her courage and said, “Weren’t we discussing that Young Master Xuan had been sleeping badly? I was thinking, he shouldn’t drink coffee anymore. Since the quality of his sleep is bad, if he keeps on drinking coffee, it’d make his sleep suffer even more. So, I changed it to milk for him…” Milk was nutritious; it could also supplement calcium levels. It was a good drink, whether in the morning or at night.

Miss Lin widened her eyes in shock at Han Muzi’s words. “You replaced Young Master Xuan’s coffee with milk on your own authority?”

Han Muzi was very embarrassed; she didn’t know how else to resolve the problem. “Didn’t you say he wasn’t sleeping well? That’s why…”

Miss Lin leaned over and said in a low voice, “You are fearless.”

“Huh?”

“What Young Master Xuan wants is coffee. Replacing it with milk for him… Do you want to be fired?”

Han Muzi shook her head; she did not want to be fired, but she was more worried about his health. She wanted to try her luck. What if Ye Moxuan agreed to drink the milk?

Seeing Han Muzi’s stubborn expression—she seemed like she had no intention of changing her mind—Miss Lin closed her eyes. She opened her eyes again and said, “You sure care a lot for Young Master Xuan. Even after I told you that you will probably be fired, you’re still insisting on delivering the milk to him? Do you—like that group of ladies—have feelings for him?”

Han Muzi did not reply.

“I’m right, aren’t I? I knew it… You silly girls… Just because he looks handsome, has a cool personality, a prestigious family background, a good-looking figure, and a sharp business acumen… Why does every one of you flock toward him one after the other?” Miss Lin herself realized that Yuchi Shen was an exceptional man. “Sigh, forget it. He truly is an exceptional man. If you’re that fearless, then go ahead and deliver the milk to him.”

As Miss Lin finished her sentence, Han Muzi nodded and bent down to pick up the milk. “Then, Miss Lin, I’m going to deliver the milk.”

“I only said it on a whim… Are you actually going to deliver it? You have some guts. Let me give you some advice. Even if you like Young Master Xuan, you still need some time to get close to him, right? With time, you will get a chance to impress him. You’ve just started working here for a few days. If he fires you in a fit of fury because you delivered the milk to him today, in the future, you won’t even have the chance to look at him from afar.”

“Miss Lin, you’re misunderstanding my intentions,” Han Muzi lightly denied and continued to explain, “I’m delivering the milk to Young Master Xuan because I’m worried about the health of my boss. If his sleep is good and he drinks less coffee, I wouldn’t deliver this milk to him.”

Miss Lin thought in her heart, As if I’d believe your lies.

Han Muzi didn’t say anything else. She picked up the cup of milk and left the secretary’s office. Watching her go, Miss Lin shook her head and sighed. How could such a lovely lady be so reckless? Even if you like someone, you should know your limits! Does she think so highly of herself, despite only working here a few days, because Young Master Xuan had not gotten angry at her yesterday? Sigh. Young people nowadays are so fickle.

Miss Lin felt that she needed to find another assistant soon. After this painful lesson, she decided against hiring female assistants. She might as well look for a male assistant

On the other side, Han Muzi had brought the milk to the door of the office. She reached forward and knocked on the door. After hearing his consent to enter, she pushed open the door and entered. She didn’t know if it was out of guilt, but when she brought the milk over, her footsteps were silenced. After placing the glass down on his desk, she whispered, “If there’s nothing else, then I’ll be going.” She turned around and prepared to leave.

After taking two steps, Ye Moxuan’s icy voice came from behind her. “What’s this?”

She stopped walking. Taking a deep breath, she looked back with a smile. “President, that’s milk. It’s very nutritious.”

Ye Moxuan lifted his eyes and looked at her darkly. Do you think I don’t know that it’s milk? I was asking why you served this!

Han Muzi understood what he was thinking inside. At first, she wanted to see if she could fool him by simply laughing it off. However, looking at the situation before her, it was clearly… impossible. She could only laugh dryly and force herself to reply, “Drinking too much coffee is bad; it will affect your sleep. Not only is milk nutritious, but it can also help you sleep better too.”

He narrowed his eyes and glared at her dangerously. The aura around him suddenly became sharp. “So, you decided to change my decisions and preferences without my permission?”

These eyes and that aura… Although she knew him well, it still made her fearful when he acted this way. She didn’t quite dare to meet his eyes and avoided his gaze as much as she could. She replied dryly, “No, I wouldn’t dare to simply change your preferences. I just felt that if you drank milk, it’d be better for your body.” While explaining, her hands subconsciously grasped the corner of her clothes. She was very nervous. She was afraid that he would lose his temper and fire her.

His ink-black eyes watched her subtle movements. He could tell that she was very nervous. So, why does she choose to act brazenly at this moment? Why doesn’t she admit her mistake immediately, just like yesterday?

Ye Moxuan felt a wave of curiosity toward her. This strange woman had caught his eyes since the moment she entered his life. As long as she appeared, his gaze would chase after her. Even when he slept at night, the tear-filled face of this woman looking at him would appear in his dreams.

“Come here.” He suddenly stretched out his fingers toward her and made a hooking motion, beckoning her to come over.

Han Muzi was stunned and stood there staring at him blankly. Why is he asking me to go over to him? Before her brain could react to it, her limbs had already started to move. Taking small steps, she walked toward Ye Moxuan. She stopped right in front of him and stared down at the glass of milk.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 769

“Do you like me?” A mildly indifferent voice rang out at the top of her head.

Han Muzi raised her head, widened her eyes, and looked at him. Then, she instinctively shook her head. “I don’t.”

“You don’t?” Ye Moxuan snorted. He got up, narrowed his eyes, and approached her. “Do you think I believe that?”

She abruptly took two steps back, no doubt worried that what happened yesterday would repeat itself. She hurriedly explained herself. “I just noticed that you were drinking coffee all the time. I thought your condition wasn’t too good; that’s why I acted on my own decision and replaced your coffee with milk. I felt that milk, which can help you sleep, would be better for your body. There’s no other meaning behind it.” Afraid that he wouldn’t believe her, she added, “Of course, even if it isn’t you, as long as it’s my superior at work, I would do the same.”

She was nervous to the point that she didn’t know what to do. Watching her, his eyes grew darker and darker. The woman in front of him cared about him—he was sure about it from the way she looked at him yesterday. However, she was very smart. Refusing to admit her feelings for him was probably just a ploy to stay by his side for a while longer. She wanted to stay, but she still challenged his patience to its limits.

“Are you stupid, or are you dumb?” he asked out of the blue.

“Huh?” she asked, confused.

He turned around and spoke ruthlessly, “Bring my coffee here before I lose my temper. As for the milk, if you think it’s so nutritious…” As he said that, he glanced sideways, showing a handsome side profile. “I’ll gift it to you.”

After everything he said, she understood that he would not be drinking this glass of milk. Ye Moxuan disliked drinking milk. After all, he used to say that milk was like poison to him because he hated the taste of it.

Right now, she did not have that kind of relationship with him; she really could not expect him to change his coffee to milk with just a few words from her. Nonetheless, she had not given up. Compared to him losing his temper, she was more worried about what would happen to his body considering how different his priorities were.

She stepped forward and picked up the glass of milk. After mulling it over, she couldn’t help but ask, “Erm… if you won’t drink milk… why don’t I brew you a cup of tea?”

Ye Moxuan scowled.

“Tea is good too. Just like coffee, it keeps your mind alert; drinking it also keeps you healthy. It’s much better than your coffee.” In actuality, coffee wasn’t bad in itself—it was just that Ye Moxuan was drinking way too much of it.

He finally looked at her unhappily; the chilling aura around him was spreading. “Do you want me to fire you?”

She kept quiet. Fine, I’ll concede. In the end, she brought the glass of milk with her as she left the office. She went back to the pantry again to brew a new cup of coffee for him.

Knowing the outcome, Miss Lin was waiting by the door of the secretary’s office; she was waiting to see what happened. When she saw Han Muzi walking past the door of the secretary’s office while carrying the glass of milk, she smiled brightly as she leaned forward. “Have you repented? You’ve only worked here for two days. Let me give you a piece of advice. In the future, just discard the very notion of trying to change our boss’ habits. Someone like Young Master Xuan… Tsk-tsk.” Shaking her head, she peered in the direction of Yuchi Shen’s office. “A normal person wouldn’t be able to stir his heart. Moreover…”

If Miss Lin hadn’t said anything, Han Muzi wouldn’t have asked. However, Han Muzi’s curiosity grew when Miss Lin stopped speaking halfway through. She looked at Miss Lin questioningly. “Moreover what?”

“Moreover, even if you managed to stir up his heart one day, it wouldn’t last for long.”

Han Muzi furrowed her brows. “What do you mean by it wouldn’t last long?”

Miss Lin didn’t continue. Instead, she took a meaningful look at the glass of milk in Han Muzi’s hands and laughed. “Alright. Did Young Master Xuan ask you to change it to coffee? Hurry up and go. Young Master Xuan might lose his temper if he has to wait for too long.”

“Okay.” Han Muzi lowered her head and walked toward the pantry.

Miss Lin began giving it some serious thought as she watched Han Muzi’s back. Yesterday, Han Muzi had denied having any relationship with Young Master Xuan to her face. She had to reflect on herself for actually believing Han Muzi’s words. Even if they were unrelated to each other, the relationship between them didn’t seem all that simple.

Han Muzi might have denied having feelings for Young Master Xuan, but the worry and concern in her eyes revealed it all. Her emotions didn’t seem like it came from something as simple as admiration. On the contrary, it seemed as if… they were in a very intimate relationship. Hmm, I should observe them for a while more.

Han Muzi went to the pantry and brewed a new cup of coffee for Ye Moxuan. As she was still worried about his health, she stealthily reduced the amount of coffee in it. As for the glass of milk he had rejected, she could only drink it herself. She delivered the coffee to his office after finishing the glass of milk.

“Your coffee is here.” She weakly placed the coffee on his desk.

Listening to her weak voice, Ye Moxuan could almost imagine her dismayed expression. Somehow, without him realizing it, a faint smile flashed across his ink-black eyes.

She stood there watching him take a sip of the coffee. He immediately frowned and put down the cup. “It’s bland.”

Raising his eyes, he looked at her coldly, then he was taken aback. She stood in front of him bare-faced without any makeup on, wearing very simple clothes. Her skin was so fair it seemed to glow and her eyes were clear. More importantly, the corners of her rosy lips were stained white with milk.

He narrowed his long and narrow eyes, revealing great intensity. Just now, he said he would give the milk to her as a reward… and she actually drank it. Heh, what an obedient woman. Staring at the white milk stains, he instinctively got up, stretched out his hand, and wiped away the stains at the corner of her lips.

The sensation of their skin touching stunned them both at the same time. When she saw the white stains on his fingertips, she came back to her senses sharply. She hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands and widened her eyes in disbelief.

Damn! She had gulped down the milk in a moment of anger, failing to take into account other matters. I can’t believe it… I left milk stains around the corners of my mouth!

He stared at the white stain on his fingertips. Suddenly, he seemed to realize what he had just done and a sharp look flashed across his black eyes. He coldly said, “You can leave now.”

“I—” She began.

“Still not leaving?” He narrowed his eyes and glared at her in displeasure.

Han Muzi didn’t know what she was thinking; her heart was beating wildly in her chest. Flustered, she left the office with uneven steps.

After the woman left, Ye Moxuan stared at his fingertips in a daze. After a while, he took out his handkerchief and wiped away the stain on his fingertips; he rubbed at it repeatedly. That’s right, it should be like this. He should be like this. No matter who it was that touched him, he should avoid it, then cleanly destroy all traces of it. He should not have acted like that—reaching out his hand, like he was possessed, to wipe away the stains around the corners of her lips. That’s not what I should be doing. Ye Moxuan pursed his thin lips, and with a cold expression, he threw away the handkerchief he just used to wipe his hands into the trash can. Now that she had left, all was back to normal.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 770

When Han Muzi returned to the secretary’s office, her entire face was flushed beet-red.

Miss Lin watched as Han Muzi returned. At first, she wondered why Han Muzi’s face was so red, then she remembered that Han Muzi had returned from Young Master Xuan’s office; she had a feeling that she had learned of something extraordinary. She supported her lower jaw with one hand, feeling a little troubled.

She seemed to have stumbled upon a huge secret. Now what? Do I still treat her like an assistant? Or do I arrange for some easier tasks to be assigned to her? Sigh, I wonder how I even managed to recruit her as my assistant.

Han Muzi ate her dinner at the cafeteria. As she was just about to get off work, she suddenly received news that she had to work overtime. So, she canceled her plans to go grocery shopping at the department store and cook dinner for herself at home. She went straight to the cafeteria instead. Naturally, Rory had been meeting her at the cafeteria these days to eat together—just like right now. Rory couldn’t help complaining, “We’ve just started working here for a few days, and suddenly we have to work overtime. It feels a bit scary.”

Han Muzi nonchalantly replied, “It’s a big company, so it’s only normal.”

Rory bit her lower lip and played with the potatoes in her bowl. “Will it be like this everyday in the future? Actually… I don’t want to work overtime. The road I take to go home is very dark.”

Hearing that, Han Muzi glanced at Rory. “The road you take is very dark? Are you renting a house? There should be street lights nowadays.”

“Ah… Erm…” Rory looked a little embarrassed but didn’t continue to explain.

Han Muzi saw that Rory wasn’t comfortable continuing the topic and stopped inquiring further. They ate their dinner in silence, then returned to their respective departments to work.

In the past, Han Muzi never felt bothered about working overtime. She felt that it was better to work harder since she was still young. However, now that she was pregnant, she felt exhausted from working overtime. Unfortunately, she felt bad about taking leave during her probation and could only struggle along with everyone else.

Fortunately, their overtime work ended at 10pm, instead of dragging on until 11pm or midnight. Otherwise, she didn’t know what time it would be by the time she reached home. She sat down to rest; she could feel her calves starting to tremble from running about until the end.

Miss Lin sighed when she saw Han Muzi like that. “It’s always like this during probation. That’s why I had to hire an assistant—there are just too many things to do. You can go ahead and take a rest; I’ll handle the rest.”

“It’s okay, Miss Lin. Let me do it.” Han Muzi was embarrassed. How can I let Miss Lin work while I rest? However, Miss Lin had already snatched the documents from her hands and left the secretary’s office. “Just sit down; look through the information first and wait for me to get back.”

With no other choice, Han Muzi sat back in her seat, rubbing her tired calves. Her stomach growled suddenly. She was surprised for a moment, then lowered her head to caress her stomach a little helplessly. She whispered, “Are you hungry? I’ll make supper for you when we get home later.”

She was talking to the baby in her womb… After getting pregnant, she constantly felt hungry. She decided to order some noodles when she got home.

Throughout the night, Ye Moxuan had asked for coffee twice. She was about to deliver it herself but was stopped by Miss Lin, explaining that Young Master Xuan did not want her to appear before him.

Han Muzi was speechless. What did I do wrong? During the day, he came up to her himself and wiped the milk stains off for her with his fingertips. What did that… have to do with me? She was anguished beyond belief.

After finally getting through the overtime work, she dragged her exhausted body into the elevator. Miss Lin walked into the elevator after her and pressed the floor buttons. “Is this your first time working overtime? You seem exhausted.”

Han Muzi could only manage a forced smile and shook her head. “I’m fine; I’m just a little tired. I’ll be back to normal after a night’s rest.”

Hearing her words, Miss Lin laughed. “That’s great; young people are so energetic. Oh, right! Where do you stay? It’s not safe to travel alone this late at night; I have a car, so why don’t I send you back along the way?”

She shook her head. How could she dare trouble Miss Lin? “There’s no need, Miss Lin. I live very close by; I can even walk home.”

Since they weren’t that familiar with each other yet, when she turned Miss Lin down, Miss Lin didn’t offer again. They then parted ways after they left the company.

Han Muzi was so hungry she could eat a horse. At first, she wanted to take the subway, but she seemed to recall that there was a department store nearby. Why don’t I go there and get a little something first?

Hence, she walked over to the department store nearby and bought some food from the food area on the second floor. As she passed the company entrance while walking back, a car approached her. The window rolled down and revealed a familiar face. “Hey, aren’t you Yuchi’s secretary’s assistant?”

Hearing that Yuchi Shen was working overtime, George had wanted to come over and invite him for supper. Who would have known that the b*stard would leave the company without sparing him a single glance? George felt wretched inside; he couldn’t even find a chance to get back at Yuchi Shen.

He had suffered from when Yuchi Shen had ratted him out to his grandfather a while back. He was still looking for a chance to get back at Yuchi Shen. Spotting Han Muzi here today, he suddenly thought of a brilliant plan.

When Han Muzi saw George, she recognized him as the guy she had met in the ‘President only’ elevator. At the time… he seemed to have been flirting with Rory. Later, he went to Ye Moxuan’s office and came across an awkward scene. Seeing him, her expression became slightly awkward; she just nodded in his direction and continued on her way.

He thought she would stop to say hello to him and chat a bit with him. Who knew she would just nod her head in his direction, then turn around and leave immediately? Her cold attitude was beyond his expectations. Therefore, he called out to her, “Hey, why are you here so late? Did you just finish working overtime?”

She didn’t expect him to follow after her. She felt extremely awkward, but she had to maintain a polite appearance. “Yes, I’ve just finished working overtime. I’m about to go home now.” Her words meant ‘stop following me’.

“It’s not safe for a young woman to walk home this late at night. Why don’t I send you back?” he offered with a big smile.

Send me back? Seeing his smiling face, she didn’t dare to let him send her home. “There’s no need, thank you. My house is close by; I’ll be there soon.”

How could he possibly not understand the rejection behind her words? He understood clearly that the woman before him was related to Yuchi Shen somehow. How could a woman who fancied Yuchi Shen possibly fancy me?

He felt slightly scorned; adding on to the suffering he experienced from his grandfather due to Yuchi Shen, he wanted to take his revenge on Yuchi Shen right now. He thought to himself, What if I took this woman away? If I called Yuchi Shen again then, would he still ignore me?

Pondering over it, he asked directly, “If you won’t let me send you back… then why don’t I treat you to supper? You must be hungry after finishing work so late, right?”

She patiently turned him down. “No thanks, I’m not hungry.”

“Are you really not hungry? Yuchi Shen is coming along too.” George enticed her with a smile.

Han Muzi paused mid-step. Ye Moxuan is coming along? To have supper with him? If I go…
