Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Only Trust My Husband

Gu Xiaozhan hadn’t made his stance clear, causing Mu Anhan to feel uneasy.

She didn’t want him to think that she released Mrs. Qin out of pity.

In this new life, she would never pity a traitor.

But in Gu Xiaozhan’s eyes, her trustworthiness was extremely low. Would he really believe her if she let Mrs. Qin go and captured Pei Wei?

Mu Anhan gazed at him eagerly, her beautiful eyes clear as water, untainted by any impurities, pure as could be.

”What if I disagree?” Gu Xiaozhan slightly curved his lips and narrowed his wise eyes.

Mu Anhan was stunned, but instead of getting angry, she proactively took his arm, ”That would prove my husband has a better way to catch the mouse Pei Wei hidden in the dark corners!”

She believed in his strength.

Seeing her so well-behaved and sweet-talking, Gu Xiaozhan was in a great mood. ”I’ll release her, and you can proceed with your plan, but always remember, safety first, or I’ll stop it at any time.”

”Yes, sir, husband!” Mu Anhan laughed happily.

Her smile was like a flower blooming in the afternoon sun, swaying and growing on the branches, indescribably beautiful.

After leaving the detention center, Mu Anhan wanted to go shopping, while Gu Xiaozhan returned to the company with Lie Huo and Mu Shaochen.

As she got out of the car, she reminded Gu Xiaozhan, ”Come back early after work, okay?”

Gu Xiaozhan looked at her bright eyes and radiant smile, she was like an angel basking in the sunlight, and he nodded.

Mu Anhan went to the jewelry street, and as she stepped inside again, the store manager Tao Shilan greeted her respectfully, whispering, ”Miss Mu, you’re here!”

Mu Anhan nodded, following her into the manager’s office.

”Miss Mu, I’m really sorry! As the manager, I didn’t do my job. If it wasn’t for your hint, I wouldn’t have known that Su Peizhi swapped out the real Star of the Ocean.” Tao Shilan lowered her head apologetically.

The real owner behind this jewelry store was none other than Mu Anhan.

Though she didn’t major in design during university, she had a talent for it.

She opened the jewelry store just for fun.

Little did she know, during a trip to the jewelry market, her eyes could discern real stones from fake ones.

That was before she married Gu Xiaozhan—she was a positive, energetic, dynamic woman then!

Tao Shilan’s father failed in gambling stones, accumulating huge debts, her mother disappeared without a trace, and she was forced by creditors to sell herself—Mu Anhan saved her.

Since then, she diligently took care of the jewelry store for Mu Anhan, but in the previous life, she met a tragic end. Su Peizhi ruined the friendship between Mu Anhan and Tao Shilan, accusing Tao Shilan of embezzling and secretly accepting bribes, which ended with Su Peizhi dying with unjust accusations in prison...

In reality, even to her last breath, Tao Shilan remembered Mu Anhan’s kindness, never blaming her even a little. She was Mu Anhan’s best and most loyal friend in the past life.

In this life, Mu Anhan would protect her well and cherish their friendship.

”Shilan, you came to the store with Su Peizhi because of me, so you trusted her character, right?” Mu Anhan didn’t blame her; instead, she gently asked.

Tao Shilan nodded, ”Yes, but I was wrong...”

”From now on, no matter who comes into the store, trust your own judgment.” Mu Anhan patted her shoulder, encouraging her.

”I understand. I definitely will in the future.” Tao Shilan was deeply moved by Mu Anhan’s generosity. ”You haven’t been to the store in a few years. Do you want to check the accounts today?”
