Chapter 652: Extra 065 Giving up on his own flesh and blood again and again? (Second update)

“Without Song Lifei by your side, someone will always joke about your past with Mu Cidian.” Lei Qian gathered her courage and spoke to Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao was somewhat surprised at that moment.

She didn’t expect Lei Qian to tell her these things.

But thinking about it, Lei Qian was not exactly a good person either.

How good can someone tainted by Wan Quan be?

She sneered, “Lei Qian, whether Song Lifei is by my side or not, because I once had a relationship with Mu Cidian, it would always be joked about. I advise you to be more generous. If you accept Mu Cidian, you should also accept his past.”

“It’s not that I can’t accept his past. I just think it’s not worth it for Mu Cidian.” Lei Qian was a bit emotional.

She seemed not used to arguing with people, her face would turn red every time she opened her mouth.

Xin Zaozao really didn’t want to say more to Lei Qian.

Nor did she want to quarrel with her.

She turned around and was about to close the door.

“Xin Zaozao, the so-called relationship between you and Mu Cidian is not a relationship at all, a relationship is mutual. Now that Mu Cidian has seen through this, he won’t persist in the wrong way.” Lei Qian raised her voice at Xin Zaozao.

“That’s between you two, it’s none of my business. I have never considered my relationship with Mu Cidian as a relationship.” Xin Zaozao dropped a line and immediately closed the door on her.

Lei Qian seemed to have unfinished words, she suddenly reached out to stop Xin Zaozao from closing the door. Xin Zaozao didn’t expect Lei Qian to reach out, so in the act of closing the door, Lei Qian’s hand was trapped tightly by Xin Zaozao. She knew she was strong, so she knew Lei Qian was really in pain.

So much so, she screamed out, “Ah!”

The voice was uncontrollably loud.

The people in the next room suddenly rushed out.

Seeing Lei Qian suddenly scream, they hastily came over and saw her swollen hand, their faces darkening, “What happened?”

“Xin Zaozao didn’t do it on purpose.” Lei Qian quickly explained.

Mu Cidian looked up at Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao was looking back at Mu Cidian, “Indeed, it wasn’t intentional.”

Mu Cidian didn’t say anything, he took Lei Qian back to their room.

At the moment that Lei Qian left with Mu Cidian, she turned back to Xin Zaozao and said, “You said you never considered your relationship with Mu Cidian a relationship. If that’s the case, I hope you won’t let others misinterpret your relationship with Mu Cidian in the future, it’s not fair to him.”

Mu Cidian heard Lei Qian’s words and seemed to hesitate a moment.

Xin Zaozao smiled from the corner of her mouth.

Lei Qian, this woman… must have been influenced by Wan Quan.

She didn’t say a word, but simply closed the door directly.

Didn’t even bother to explain.

What Lei Qian said was indeed the truth, after all.

However, coming from her mouth, it inevitably seemed to be aimed at stirring up discord.

Mu Cidian took Lei Qian back to their room. He had her rinse her hand with cold water and called the front desk to send some bruise-relieving ointment.

When Lei Qian came out after rinsing her hand with cold water, her hand appeared to be even more swollen, and it admittedly ached even more.

She was enduring the pain.

Mu Cidian took the ointment from the hotel staff and applied it to Lei Qian’s hand little by little.

Lei Qian was biting her lip.

After applying the ointment, Mu Cidian said, “Bear with it for a couple of days, it should help with the swelling.”

“Ok.” Lei Qian nodded.

As she nodded, she couldn’t help saying, “Cidian, you’re really good to me.”

Mu Cidian didn’t say anything. He put the ointment away and casually asked, “Why did you go to Xin Zaozao?”

He knew clearly that Xin Zaozao would never take the initiative to find them.

Lei Qian looked at Mu Cidian, “Are you angry?”

“No.”

“I just, just…” Lei Qian stuttered a bit, “At dinner, everyone was joking about you and Xin Zaozao, and I felt like they were mocking you. I just wanted Xin Zaozao to clarify your relationship with them. In the relationship between you and Xin Zaozao, it’s clearly her fault, but now she looks like a victim. I can’t stand it.”

“In the future, you can just stop worrying about my matters with Xin Zaozao.”

“But…” Lei Qian bit her lip and gathered her courage, “I’m really uncomfortable. Xin Zaozao treated you like that in the past, and shortly after you two broke up, she’s pregnant with another man’s child. I feel it’s a waste.”

“If we want to live a good life together, we’d better not dwell on the past.” Mu Cidian said.

His voice was still low and magnetic, but at that moment his tone seemed inexplicably heavier.

Lei Qian stared at him.

Mu Cidian got up from the sofa, “Why don’t you take a nap, I’ll go out for a bit.”

“Where are you going?” Lei Qian asked.

Didn’t he just say he wants to rest a bit?

“I have to go discuss work stuff.” Mu Cidian left directly.

Lei Qian watched Mu Cidian’s receding figure.

For some reason, she always felt that Mu Cidian had some… indescribable emotions towards Xin Zaozao.

Mu Cidian left the room.

He dialed Yin Qin’s number.

Yin Qin answered, “What’s up, Mu Cidian?”

“Are you bringing Luo Xiaolang back to the hotel a little later?”

“We’re here right now, just arrived.” Yin Qin said, “What do you need with my wife?”

“To discuss work.”

“Mu Cidian, it’s my wedding day, can you pick another time for this… hey, stop hitting me!” The other side was filled with Yin Qin’s cries of grievances.

Luo Xiaolang took the phone, “I’m in room 1888, come on over, I’ll wait for you.”

“Okay, thanks.”

Mu Cidian hung up the phone.

He headed for the elevator.

The elevator door opened.

Song Zhizhi and Ji Baijian happened to be inside.

Mu Cidian greeted, “Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji.”

“Hmm.” Song Zhizhi responded with a knowing smile.

Ji Baijian nodded.

Song Zhizhi asked, “Where are you headed?”

“I’m looking for Yin Qin.”

“Oh.”

The elevator ride was very quiet.

Ji Baijian suddenly asked, “The game ‘God Slayer’ is yours?”

“Yes.” Mu Cidian replied.

“It’s doing well in the domestic market right now. Are you interested in opening up the international market?” Ji Baijian asked.

“I have plans in this regard, but everything is not yet mature, including the company’s management, technology, marketing, etc., will all need time.”

“The esports market has great potential right now, it can bring a lot of economic benefits. Our country has always been not very good in esports, even if we have strong esports players, I also plan to do something in this market economy. If you have any needs, you can come to me directly.” Ji Baijian asked him, “Do you have my number?”

Meaning he could call him directly.

“Yes.” Mu Cidian thanked him, “Thank you, Mr. Ji.”

Ji Baijian gave a slight nod.

At this moment, the elevator door opened.

Since they all were on the same floor, they took the elevator down and walked together in the corridor of the hotel.

Mu Cidian pressed the doorbell to Yin Qin’s room.

Song Zhizhi and Ji Baijian entered the room next door.

After entering, Song Zhizhi couldn’t help asking Ji Baijian, “Is Mu Cidian doing esports?”

“The biggest mobile game on the market right now was developed by Mu Cidian. In just one year, it has experienced explosive growth. I was initially curious about who made it, but later found out it was Mu Cidian. If it’s Mu Cidian, given his abilities, our esports scene is poised for development.”

Song Zhizhi nodded, and couldn’t help but ask at that moment, “Doesn’t that mean Mu Cidian is very rich now?”

Ji Baijian looked at his wife, “My lady, are you envious?”

“Are you jealous?”

“Not jealous, no matter how much money he has, he doesn’t have as much as I have.”

“And yet you’re still talking.” Song Zhizhi rolled her eyes.

Ji Baijian didn’t take it up with Song Zhizhi.

“I just feel like, for hurting Zaozao so much, God should make Mu Cidian lose everything,” Song Zhizhi said on her own.

Ji Baijian turned to look at Song Zhizhi.

He said, “Instead of spending your energy caring about others, why not think about having a second child.”

“Isn’t it you… um…” Song Zhizhi was silenced.

Song Zhizhi pushed Ji Baijian.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ji Baijian let her go after a deep kiss, “We can’t fall behind Yin Qin.”

“…”

Is this even a competition?!

On this side, in the heat of the room.

The atmosphere isn’t bad on the other side either.

Wherever Yin Qin was, it never felt lonely.

Mu Cidian said to Luo Xiaolang, “The promotion for this game at the beginning was done with your help. Back then, I indeed had limited funds. Now, I officially want to invite you to be the spokesperson for my game.”

“You don’t need to be so polite to me, I was just helping a friend,” Luo Xiaolang said, “Besides, I’m currently livestreaming, which involves playing many different games, as well as some professional competitions, so being a spokesperson could be troublesome.”

“As my spokesperson, you wouldn’t only play my game. Everything you did before would remain unchanged. You would only occasionally help me shoot some promotional photos, do some advertising, play a few matches. The only requirement is that after you accept my offer, you can’t endorse competing products.” Mu Cidian showed his sincerity.

“How much would it cost?” Yin Qin suddenly interrupted.

Luo Xiaolang gave Yin Qin a blank look.

Mu Cidian said, “80 million a year.”

“That’s too much.” Luo Xiaolang refused, “A few million would be enough.”

“Why are you trying to save him money? Mu Cidian is now bursting with cash. You don’t know how hot his game is right now. In this era of the internet, traffic is king. A random ad would also be for this amount,” Yin Qin stated bluntly.

Mu Cidian laughed, “Yin Qin is right, endorsement fee is just for the first year, it would increase based on the market in the future.”

“Alright.” Luo Xiaolang did not refuse anymore.

“You see when you are free, I will bring the contract over for signing.”

“Not these few days for sure, I am taking my wife on a trip abroad tomorrow. Come find us again in a month.”

“Alright.” Mu Cidian nodded.

He was not in a hurry.

He said, “Then I won’t disturb your rest.”

“Speaking of, Mu Cidian.” Yin Qin suddenly called out to him.

“Hmm.”

“Is it really over between you and Xin Zaozao?” Yin Qin asked.

“What else could it be?” Mu Cidian smirked.

“You liked her so much back then…”

“You liked Ji Baixin so much back then.”

“Hey.” Yin Qin looked somewhat excited, he looked at Luo Xiaolang and muttered, “Why bring up what is not to be brought up?”

Mu Cidian said, “I should go.”

“Is Xin Zaozao’s child definitely not yours?” Yin Qin’s curiosity could never change in this lifetime.

“Whoever she says it is, it is.”

After dropping this sentence, Mu Cidian left.

Yin Qin watched Mu Cidian’s back.

He turned and looked at his wife, “What did Mu Cidian’s words mean?”

He couldn’t help but feel they had more than their literal meaning.

Luo Xiaolang, who wasn’t one to pry into others’ affairs, much unlike Yin Qin.

She said, “I’m going to sleep for a while.”

“Wait for me.” Yin Qin hurriedly followed Luo Xiaolang and complained, “How can you abandon me when you go to sleep…”

“…”

Mu Cidian walked out of Yin Qin’s room.

The moment he opened the door.

He saw Song Zhizhi waiting for him outside the room next door.

Right now, Song Zhizhi’s lips seemed a little swollen.

It really made people’s minds run wild.

In fact.

It really took Song Zhizhi a lot of effort to break free from Ji Baijian’s grasp.

It was just that she had something to ask Mu Cidian.

Seeing Song Zhizhi, Mu Cidian also knew that she was waiting for him, he said, “Did you need something?”

“Is Xin Zaozao’s child really Song Lifei’s?” Song Zhizhi asked.

Mu Cidian pursed his lips.

“It’s yours, right?” Song Zhizhi almost stated with certainty.

Mu Cidian still didn’t say anything.

Song Zhizhi said, “You just gonna let Xin Zaozao bear your child alone, not knowing anything about it?”

“Does she need me to take care of her?” Mu Cidian asked.

When he asked, it was somewhat self-mocking.

“What do you think she should do to let you take care of her?” Song Zhizhi also asked with a hint of sarcasm. “Become your mistress? Have your illegitimate child?”

Mu Cidian’s throat moved slightly.

“Mu Cidian, although I haven’t had much contact with you, and because of the pain you caused Xin Zaozao in the past I don’t have a good impression of you, but I have always thought that you should be a responsible man. I really didn’t expect you to repeatedly abandon your own flesh and blood!”
