The change in Mu Shengâs expression was too obvious. Li Hanchen handed a pair of chopsticks to her.âWhatâs wrong?â Were you angry because of Liu Nana just now?â
Mu Sheng took the chopsticks, her ears slightly red.âIâm not angry.â
Li Hanchenâs eyes were smiling. Then who was the one who was complaining just now?â
He looked as if he had cheated on her. Thinking of Mu Shengâs expression just now, li Hanchen could not help but laugh.
âYouâre so annoying. â Mu Sheng gently kicked li Hanchen.âCan we eat?â Iâm hungry. â
âYou havenât eaten yet?â Li Hanchen thought that Mu Sheng had come after eating.
âNo,â Mu Sheng said naturally.âAunt Lin asked me to bring it to you as soon as possible. It wonât taste good if itâs cold.â
âIs that so?â Li Hanchenâs lips curved up slightly, but he did not expose Mu Sheng.
Aunt Lin would not let Mu Sheng bring him food on an empty stomach.
After all, the people in the manor could tell how important Mu Sheng was to him. Even if they starved him, they would not starve Mu Sheng.
That meant that Mu Sheng had voluntarily brought things over.
Li Hanchen patted the seat beside him and looked at Mu Sheng.âDo you want to sit next to me and eat?â
Mu Sheng hesitated for a moment, but eventually sat down next to li Hanchen.
Although she did not know why, she felt that the food tasted better when she sat next to li Hanchen.
Seeing Mu Shengâs obedient look, li Hanchenâs heart softened. He slowly picked out the garlic from the dishes, and then put all the dishes without garlic into Mu Shengâs bowl.
âHurry up and eat. Itâs already so late, you must be hungry.â
âYes.â Mu Sheng nodded and started to eat.
For a moment, there was only the sound of the two of them chewing in the room.
Li Hanchen had already developed a habit with Mu Sheng. When she saw food that she did not like, she would naturally put it in li Hanchenâs bowl.
Halfway through the meal, Mu Sheng suddenly remembered that aunt Lin had specially instructed him before she left today.
Li Hanchen did not eat the bean sprouts, so aunt Lin told Mu Sheng not to put the bean sprouts in front of li Hanchen.
However, now, looking at li Hanchen, who was chewing on the bean sprouts in front of him, Mu Sheng put down his chopsticks.âDidnât aunt Lin say that you donât like to eat bean sprouts?â
Li Hanchen lowered his head and took a look.âYes, I didnât like it in the past.â
âYou like it now?â
âYes.â Li Hanchen nodded and Mu Sheng did not ask any further.
As he had been hungry for too long, Mu Sheng ate a little too much. He did not feel it when he was eating, but when he was done, he felt full.
Seeing that li Hanchen had finished packing and was sitting at the desk again, Mu Sheng leaned on the sofa.âIf youâre not in a hurry to go back, Iâll sleep here for a while.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He felt sleepy after eating. Mu Sheng had already asked for leave from his fans on the platform for todayâs live broadcast, so he was not in a hurry to go back.
âAlright,â he said.
While li Hanchen was tidying up a document, Mu Sheng had already fallen asleep.
Li Hanchen walked over and pulled a blanket over to cover Mu Sheng. When he saw Mu Shengâs peaceful sleeping face, li hanzheng stopped.
Mu Sheng had always been well-behaved when he was asleep. His long eyelashes rested on his eyelids, revealing a sense of peace.
Li Hanchen looked at Mu Sheng quietly for a while, and then he could not help but lower his head to kiss Mu Sheng on the cheek.
At this moment, Mu Sheng, who was still sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes.
She looked at li Hanchen, who was very close to her, and her eyes flickered.âWhat are you doing?â
Li Hanchenâs throat rolled.âI want to kiss you, okay?â
Li Hanchenâs words sounded very gentlemanly, but the content of his words did not make people associate him with a gentleman.
Mu Sheng looked into li Hanchenâs eyes.âI want to sleep.â
Li Hanchen chuckled and the gentleness in his eyes disappeared.âOkay.â
He shook the blanket in his hand and draped it over Mu Shengâs body. Then, he gently rubbed Mu Shengâs head.âSleep.â
With that, li Hanchen turned around and was about to Continue reading his documents, but Mu Sheng grabbed his sleeve.
Li Hanchen turned around and saw mu shengzheng staring at him with a clear light in his ice-cold eyes.
Mu Sheng pursed her lips.âI want to sleep next to you.â
Although they were in the same room, Mu Sheng felt an inexplicable emptiness in his heart when he saw li Hanchen preparing to leave.
Li Hanchen bent down, and his eyes seemed to have a few stars hidden in them.âSure, but you have to let go of me for a while. Iâll go get the documents.â
Mu Sheng lowered his head and saw that he was still holding on to li Hanchenâs sleeve, so he quickly let go.
Li Hanchen took the documents and stretched out his arms to pull Mu Sheng into his arms.
â.......âMu Sheng wanted to say that she meant to lean on li Hanchen, but not to be in his arms.
Li Hanchen knew what Mu Sheng was thinking, but he pretended not to know. He even looked at Mu Sheng in surprise.âWhat?â he asked. Do you want to get closer?â
â....... No need. â Mu Sheng wrapped the blanket tighter around her and leaned against li Hanchenâs chest. She fell asleep soon after.
When Mu Shengâs breathing had calmed down, li Hanchen looked down at him.
Then, she lowered her head and planted a kiss on Mu Shengâs forehead.
âIdiot, do you think I wonât kiss you if you donât let me?â
ââ
It was already quite late, but the MU and Li residences were still brightly lit.
Ouyang he had sent news that he was already preparing to hold a master ceremony for Mu Ying.
Because of Mu Xiâs potential commercial value, not only did she receive a rather good endorsement deal in the entertainment industry, but she also became a face-up in the piano world.
The aristocratic families that were on good terms with Ouyang he had also started to show goodwill to the MU family.
But only mu ting knew that the MU family needed the Li familyâs support now.
The Li family also hoped to use this relationship with Mu Xi to connect with the family power behind Ouyang he and solve the financial crisis this time.
Both parties had their own plans and were working overtime to prepare for the wedding.
Mu Ying was worried that something would go wrong at the World Piano Competition, so she even suggested holding the wedding before the competition, which naturally got the approval of both sides.
In the past few days, the two families had almost finished preparing the venue and items for the wedding. They had found a master to do some calculations and found that the most auspicious day would be in two days.
As such, the two families had just finished their preparations and began to send out invitations to the other major families overnight.
In the MU family villa, Zhang man did not look very happy when she saw Mu Xi trying on her wedding dress.
âXiaoxiao, isnât this a little too rushed?â Zhang man did not expect Mu Yingâs wedding to be held in such a hurry.
Not only was mu ting and mu Xiao anxious, but even the Li family was also out of character. They were very eager for Mu Ying to marry into the Li family.
âMom.â Mu Ying touched the diamond on her clothes, her eyes bright.âThere might not be such a chance after this. Itâs not easy for the Li family to relent. No matter what, Iâll be the Li familyâs matriarch in two days.â
Not only was she the matriarch of the Li family, but most importantly, she was the mistress of the Li family. Mu Sheng was just a useless abandoned woman in the Li family.
When she had the power in the Li family, she could humiliate Mu Sheng however she wanted to.
âAlright,â he said. Now that things had come to this, Zhang man could not change anything. However, when she saw Mu Xiâs happy expression, Zhang man felt an inexplicable sense of panic in her heart.
She felt that something was wrong, but she couldnât tell what it was.
ââ
The night grew darker, and the cars and pedestrians on the road began to thin out.
Mu Sheng, who had been sleeping soundly in li Hanchenâs arms, finally blinked.
Mu Sheng opened her eyes, still a little drowsy. She subconsciously snuggled in li Hanchenâs arms like a kitten.
Li Hanchen pulled her into his arms.âYouâre awake?â
Mu Sheng yawned.âWhat time is it?â
â 11 Oâ clock. Letâs go back.â
Mu Sheng nodded.âYes.â
She was about to get up, but li Hanchen stopped her.
âDonât move. Youâll catch a cold.â Mu Sheng was only wearing a knitted sweater inside and a blanket on the outside. It was easy to catch a cold if he moved when he had just woken up.
Mu Sheng was about to say that she was fine, but li Hanchen had already picked her up by the waist, along with the blanket.
Mu Sheng subconsciously wrapped her arms around li Hanchenâs neck, and Li Hanchen carried her all the way downstairs.
At this time, there were still some people working overtime in the hall. Mu Sheng was a little embarrassed. She buried her face in li Hanchenâs suit jacket.
Li Hanchen looked down and reached out to pull up a blanket to cover Mu Sheng.
In this company, except for a few core members of the CEO Secretariat, all the other employees only knew that Qin Kai was their direct superior.
No one had heard of the real boss, li Hanchen.
However, although no one knew that li Hanchen was the actual boss, some female employees recognized li Hanchen at a glance.
At that time,âfollowing eclipseâ was a very popular variety show. Li Hanchen had left the industry because of his looks, so he was naturally remembered by many people.
Now that they saw li Hanchen carrying a person out of the door, everyoneâs first reaction was,
Itâs over. Their love line is a tragedy.
A passerby posted the photo on the internet and it immediately attracted a large number of netizens.
âDo you still remember the abandoned son of the Li family, li Hanchen? Heâs the Super handsome man who created a love line with Mu Sheng in âfollow the Eatâ. I saw him downstairs at the company today. He seems to have a girlfriend. â
The attached picture was a picture of li Hanchen holding a woman whose face was covered by a blanket.
[F * ck, I canât believe this is real. My Li Li is with the MU couple. Iâve been kowtowing to them for a long time.]
Oh ... Was there no possibility that li Hanchen and Mu Sheng were in a relationship? Didnât Mu Sheng not stream tonight? [Think about it from another perspective. Maybe our love line will have a perfect ending?]
However, before everyone could figure out whether the person in li Hanchenâs arms was Mu Sheng or not, Jiang Tian had already posted a clarification post on Weibo.
@Midsummer Night studio: âif you donât believe the rumors, letâs not spread them. Our studio is having a dinner party tonight.â
Jiang Tian even attached a photo of the three of them eating hotpot together.
[Okay, my heart is broken. The only love line that I like is in such a tragedy.]
[I shouldâve known that. Variety shows are just scripts meant for the audience to see. Theyâre so lovey-dovey on screen. Maybe when theyâre not filming the show, the two sides wonât have any contact at all.]
[Li Hanchen already has a girlfriend, so please donât attack our shengsheng anymore. Thank you, our shengsheng is beautiful alone.]
At the same time, Mu Sheng, who had just gotten into the car, received a deadly serial phone call from Jiang Tian.
As soon as Mu Sheng picked up the call, Jiang Tianâs wailing voice came through.
âAncestor, how did you get caught on camera?â
Mu Sheng still did not know what had happened.âWhatâs wrong?â
âYou went to look for li Hanchen, right?â Jiang Tian rubbed his forehead.âRemember, donât expose your relationship to the public in the future. We agreed on this when we signed the contract.â
âAlright, I got it.â
Jiang Tian gave him a few more reminders before hanging up.
Mu Sheng turned off his phone and glanced at li Hanchen.âI think someone took a picture of us.â
âYes.â Li Hanchenâs expression was calm and he was not anxious at all.
âThen I wonât come looking for you in the future.â There were too many people around, and if he was photographed again one day, Jiang Tian would probably shut himself up on the spot.
Li Hanchen did not say anything, but Mu Sheng could clearly feel that li Hanchenâs mood was very different from just now. He was very unhappy now.
Along the way, li Hanchen did not speak to Mu Sheng again, and Mu Sheng also remained silent.
When they returned to the manor, li Hanchen pulled out his key and was about to get out of the car. Mu Sheng suddenly reached out and grabbed li Hanchenâs sleeve.
Li Hanchen turned around, his expression still cold.âWhatâs wrong?â
âIâll look for you again in the future. Iâll try to wear glasses and a mask so that no one can take photos of me. â
Li Hanchen was stunned for a moment before he realized that Mu Sheng must have thought that he was angry at his words.
Li Hanchenâs eyes flashed with a touch of helplessness, but his expression finally softened.âLetâs go in and sleep.â
âAlright,â he said.
Mu Sheng smiled at li Hanchen, her eyes curved like a crescent moon.
Li Hanchenâs heart moved.
Mu Sheng got out of the car and walked into the house. Li Hanchen followed beside her.âWill you bring me food when I work overtime in the future?â
Mu Sheng thought about it for a while and nodded.âAlright.â
Li Hanchen was satisfied. He reached out and patted Mu Shengâs head.âIâm just joking. Go upstairs and sleep. Good night.â
He was just asking. Even if Mu Sheng was willing to send her gifts every day, he was not willing to let her run so hard every day.
Mu Sheng did not leave immediately, but looked at li Hanchen in confusion.âArenât you going upstairs?â
âI still have something to deal with. Iâll go up later.â
âAlright,â he said.
After Mu Sheng went upstairs, li Hanchen made a call and the call was picked up very quickly.
âPresident li, Mu Ying and Li Mingâs wedding is in two days. Do we need to do it?â
âNo need.â Li Hanchenâs eyes darkened.âLet them get married smoothly.â
Originally, they were two grasshoppers on two ropes, and he had to put in two efforts to catch them. Now that they were on the same rope, it would be more convenient to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Moreover, with the current situation, the marriage between the two families was not a strong Alliance that they thought they would be, but a dog-eat-dog fight.
