Are CEOs also subject to marriage pressure?

"I would like to go tonight, but I'm not free today!"

"Fine, then don't go. What's your excuse?"

"Ah, why don't you believe me when I'm telling the truth? One of my elders from Ningcheng just had surgery in Hangcheng, and my mom asked me to visit them in the hospital since I'm here in Hangcheng."

Muge was indeed telling the truth. The person who just had surgery was from his mother's side of the family, specifically his uncle, who had been living in the countryside of Ningcheng. They usually only saw each other during festivals.

His uncle had always doted on him as the son of his older sister, saving everything for Muge and often driving overnight to deliver crabs to Muge's family. Despite being from the countryside, his uncle was quite wealthy due to his landholdings, and his two sisters were also very successful. The eldest sister was now running a business in Shanghai, while the second sister worked as a financial director in a domestic listed company in Hangcheng.

Muge often visited his second sister's home for meals!

This time, his uncle had come to Hangcheng to visit his daughter and stay for a few days. However, two days ago, he suddenly collapsed at home. After going to the hospital for a check-up, it was discovered that he had a tumor. Fortunately, it was detected early, and with surgery and hospital treatment, he could still recover.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yanfei nodded and thought for a moment before saying to Muge, "Alright, I'll give you the day off today to visit your uncle. How about we have dinner together tomorrow?"

"Sounds good," Muge agreed.

Knowing that Muge's uncle was in the hospital, Jiang Yanfei decided to give him half a day off as a show of care for her employee, especially since he was also her boyfriend.

Muge was pleased and thought that Jiang Yanfei was quite considerate.

"Oh, by the way, we have a car at the company that was previously pledged by a client. You can use it for these two days since you don't have a car," she said, taking out the key to an Audi from her office cabinet and handing it to Muge.

"It's a new Audi A7. The client barely drove it a few times before their company encountered some issues and went bankrupt. They still owe us some money, so they used the car as collateral. It's been sitting there, and I haven't driven it either," she explained.

Muge was delighted and took the key, playing with it for a moment.

"Well, I must say, you're a very considerate girlfriend, knowing how to give your boyfriend special privileges," he teased.

Jiang Yanfei rolled her eyes at him.

Ding-dong!

Suddenly, Jiang Yanfei's phone rang.

She walked over to the desk, picked up the phone, and saw that it was her mother calling.

She then looked at Muge and said, "You go ahead and take care of your business. I'll answer this call!"

Just as Muge turned around and was about to walk out, he heard Jiang Yanfei say,

"Mom, what is it?"

"A blind date?"

After saying that, she blushed and glanced in the direction of Muge, who had just closed the door.

When Muge came out, he couldn't help but chuckle. He never expected that even a goddess-like CEO would be forced to go on blind dates!

"My dear, you're already 25 years old, and you only know how to work all day without even dating."

"In a couple of years, how old will you be? Today, your Aunt Chen came over and mentioned a really nice young man. Do you want to take some time to meet him?"

Upon hearing her mother's words, Jiang Yanfei immediately frowned slightly.

She knew that her mother always called just to talk about this.

"Here we go again, always urging me. Do you really want me to get married so badly?"

Li Mei, on the other end, was not pleased. How could her daughter speak to her this way when she was only concerned about her future happiness?

"I have to urge you. Don't you have any concept of how old you are now?"

"You're 25, and how many 25-year-olds haven't even dated before? All you do is work, work, work. What's the point of earning so much money? Just earn enough to live comfortably, and use the rest of your time to have a good relationship. A boyfriend is a basic need!"

Jiang Yanfei's head started to ache as soon as she heard this. "It's useless for you to keep urging me. I need to find the right person. If I don't find someone suitable, I'd rather be single for the rest of my life than settle for less."

Li Mei sighed. She only had one daughter, and it worried her that she was so old and had never been in a relationship. When would she ever be able to hold her grandchild?

"Don't give me that excuse. I've introduced so many people to you. Surely, you must have liked one of them? They come from all walks of life! Handsome, ugly, rich, poor, capable, less capable - they're all there. Is there really no one who has caught your eye?"

"There really isn't. Please don't introduce anyone to me anymore. I don't want to hit anyone again."

Jiang Yanfei was tired of this kind of thing.

Although she was currently focused on her career and didn't have time for dating, it didn't mean that she would never date. It's just that she hadn't met anyone who made her heart skip a beat yet. And now that she had, she was ready to take the leap.

"Oh, are you trying to give me a headache?"

"I can make my own decisions about my life!"

Jiang Yanfei had a strong personality and was stubborn.

"Fine, you really are stubborn. Unlike my little Xue Er!"

Jiang Yanfei checked the time and realized it was getting late. "Okay, Mom, I have to get back to work now. I'll hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yanfei lay back in her office chair and began to massage her temples with her slender fingers. At this moment, she wasn't the billion-dollar financial queen or CEO of the country, but just an ordinary daughter being pressured by her family to get married.

...

Muge left Jiang Yanfei's office and returned to his own, where he organized some documents before happily heading home from work.

He walked to the company's parking lot and found a black A7. Although it didn't look like it had been driven much, it was clear that someone had been taking care of it regularly as there wasn't a speck of dust on it. What Muge didn't know was that this car had originally been quite dusty, but Jiang Yanfei had personally taken it out, washed it, and brought it back.

It wouldn't be appropriate to visit a patient empty-handed, so Muge decided to buy some nutritional supplements first. He drove to a shopping mall near the company and quickly went inside.

He made a beeline for the nutritional supplements section and soon had a pile of them in his cart. After that, he proceeded to check out. In front of him was an elderly lady who looked well-off judging by her attire. She had bought some high-end ingredients like small lobsters, hairy crabs, and abalone.

The elderly lady quickly finished checking out, and it was Muge's turn. He also checked out quickly and was about to leave the supermarket when he saw the elderly lady from before being knocked down by an electric scooter that then sped away.

Muge rushed forward to help.
