Chapter 581: Impulsiveness
Song Yin is a strong-willed woman, and she hasn't had much experience in dating, let alone like Mu Xiaoyu, who stopped wearing pretty dresses because her boyfriend was jealous.
Therefore, in her eyes at this moment, the relationship between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu was simply too crazy. Did Li Chenxu really need to be jealous like this?
Song Yin's eyes were filled with disbelief. Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she couldn't say anything.
Moreover, this time was different from before. In the past, no matter how much affection Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu showed between them, she never felt anything was wrong.
But right now, it suddenly feels like Mu Xiaoyu is showing off her affection.
This was the first time Song Yin had felt this way, and she immediately felt a little awkward.
She moved a little further away from Mu Xiaoyu, her mind filled with questions.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't notice Song Yin's odd behavior and assumed that Song Yin was still prejudiced against Li Chenxu, so she smiled and said, "Don't talk about him. He's only jealous because he cares. I like him that way. If he didn't care, why would he be jealous?"
"But you can't do this for a man..."
Song Yin said somewhat unsure of herself, as she herself didn't know what she was insisting on at this moment.
"Okay, I know you're worried about me, but I've learned my lesson now and won't make the same mistake again... By the way, do you have time later? I'd like to invite you and Ye Qi to have a casual meal together. You two came all the way here today to support me, so I should at least treat you to a meal."
When Mu Xiaoyu spoke, she looked at Gu Yeqi with a grateful yet distant smile in her eyes.
While Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin were talking, Gu Yeqi stood to the side without saying a word. Even though he tried to restrain himself, his gaze was still fixed on Mu Xiaoyu.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's distant gaze now, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
However, being a celebrity, he naturally had excellent control over his emotions. No matter how sad he was inside, he didn't show it on his face. He even smiled slightly at Mu Xiaoyu when she looked at him, a smile that was absolutely flawless.
Song Yin glanced at him and felt that Gu Ye was actually quite pitiful, so she thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "I'm fine here, let's go eat hot pot, it'll have a better atmosphere. By the way, your man probably won't be coming, right?"
"Of course not. He hasn't been to the company in a long time, so he shouldn't be busy today. Besides, I know you don't like him, and the two of you don't get along. Why would I bring him to an event like this?"
Mu Xiaoyu's words instantly pleased Song Yin. She gave a soft hum, then took Mu Xiaoyu's arm, glanced at Gu Yeqi, and said, "Let's go. I know a hot pot restaurant that's really good. It's not crowded now, so we don't need to make a reservation."
Having said that, the group said no more and headed straight for the hot pot restaurant with Chen Shu and the others.
Although it was said to be a dinner party for three people, Chen Shu, Mu Yang, and some close staff members were also present. It could also be considered a celebration banquet for the success of today's press conference.
A good start is always particularly inspiring.
That night, even Mu Xiaoyu was so happy that she drank quite a bit of alcohol.
Midway through, Li Chenxu called, wanting to pick up Mu Xiaoyu for dinner that evening, but Mu Xiaoyu immediately refused.
In addition, Mu Xiaoyu had already drunk quite a bit, and her speech was becoming slurred. Yang barely exchanged a few words with Li Chenxu before hanging up the phone.
Fortunately, the location of Mu Xiaoyu was explained in just a few words, which made Li Chenxu feel a little relieved.
But what followed was a deep sense of grievance that was hard to express.
He was clearly the closest person to Mu Xiaoyu. Even if they weren't alone together at the celebration after the press conference, he should have been there to celebrate with her. But not only was he not there, Mu Xiaoyu was also being so perfunctory with him.
The more Li Chenxu thought about it, the heavier his heart became, and the more distressed he felt.
He was clearly a man, but at this moment he acted like a woman, becoming melancholy and sorrowful.
For a long time after hanging up the phone, Li Chenxu was unable to concentrate on his work. His mind was filled with thoughts about Mu Xiaoyu, and he kept sighing.
Lin Zhu couldn't bear to watch any longer and couldn't help but say, "Sir, if you're really worried, why don't you go see Madam now?"
"Go find her?"
Li Chenxu repeated himself, then asked with a slight hesitation, "If I go like this, won't she be unhappy?"
Li Chenxu is an extremely assertive, even domineering, person. In the past, he would have done whatever he wanted without considering the consequences.
To put it nicely, it's being domineering; to put it bluntly, it's not considering the other party's feelings at all.
But now, things are completely different.
Lin Zhu glanced at Li Chenxu with a slightly complicated expression, and finally shook his head and said, "As long as you go, sir, I think Madam won't be unhappy, and maybe... she'll be very happy."
Lin Zhu's words were like a reassuring pill, quickly calming Li Chenxu's heart down a little.
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Chenxu immediately said, "That's all for today. Let's go home now. We can deal with other things tomorrow."
"Oh...okay."
Even though he had already guessed the outcome, Assistant Lin was still surprised by Li Chenxu's decisiveness.
You know, anyone would be surprised if a workaholic suddenly turned into this.
Fortunately, Assistant Lin was a man accustomed to big events. After a brief moment of surprise, he quickly agreed and immediately began to arrange the next steps.
In just over ten minutes, Li Chenxu was already on his way to the hot pot restaurant.
More than ten minutes later, Li Chenxu arrived at the hot pot restaurant where Mu Xiaoyu and the others were.
Because Mu Xiaoyu and the others arrived early, the event was basically over by the time Li Chenxu arrived. Mu Xiaoyu, Song Yin, and Chen Shu, the three women, drank the most. Chen Shu and Song Yin were alright; they attend all sorts of banquets regularly and have long since developed a high alcohol tolerance, so they were only slightly tipsy at this point.
But Mu Xiaoyu was different. She usually drank very little and had a low alcohol tolerance. Tonight she drank so much that she was staggering as she left the hot pot restaurant.
Even when she saw Li Chenxu appear, she thought she was hallucinating. Otherwise, how could someone who had just hung up the phone suddenly appear?
