Chapter 36 Apologize
This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu had shared such a wonderful night together, with both parties consenting. So much so that when Mu Xiaoyu woke up the next day, the thought of her initiative the previous night made her blush and her heart race.
Li Chenxu was still fast asleep beside her. Golden sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating his handsome face, making him look like a painting. Mu Xiaoyu was mesmerized and reached out to trace Li Chenxu's features.
No sooner had her fingertips touched Li Chenxu's thick, dark eyebrows than her hand was grabbed.
Li Chenxu, who should have been fast asleep, had opened his eyes. His dark eyes were clear, indicating that he had been awake for quite some time.
Li Chenxu chuckled at Mu Xiaoyu, raised an eyebrow, and said, "What do you want to do so early in the morning?"
His voice carried a hint of mockery, which immediately made Mu Xiaoyu blush. She glared at Li Chenxu angrily, trying to pull her hand back, but Li Chenxu held her hand tightly and kissed it. The soft touch made Mu Xiaoyu's heart skip a beat.
However, before she could even feel shy, Li Chenxu flipped over and landed on top of her.
His thin lips kissed her forehead, and he whispered, "Xiaoyu, do you know how happy I am right now..."
"What...what are you so happy about..."
Mu Xiaoyu felt embarrassed to look directly into Li Chenxu's eyes, and stammered as she heard his words. Actually, she already had a pretty good idea of what Li Chenxu was happy about. After she and Li Chenxu had seriously discussed not getting a divorce, it was obvious that Li Chenxu was in a better mood than before.
And yesterday... she once again assured Li Chenxu that she would not get married.
Looking back now, it seems that every time Li Chenxu was happy, it was related to her.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but hook her arms around Li Chenxu's neck and kiss him on the lips for the first time, saying, "Chenxu, asking you to sign the divorce papers before... I didn't mean to, I just... just..."
Mu Xiaoyu wanted to explain, but when she spoke, she stammered and didn't know how to perfectly explain what had happened.
“That’s all in the past, Xiaoyu. You promised me you wouldn’t get a divorce. From now on, let’s be together. I will pamper you and treat you well. But… you absolutely cannot have any more thoughts of leaving me, otherwise, I don’t even know what crazy things I might do.”
Mu Xiaoyu has now developed feelings for Li Chenxu, so naturally she no longer has any thoughts of leaving him. To be fair, apart from being extremely domineering towards her in romantic relationships, Li Chenxu is very gentle towards her at other times.
Just like last night, Li Chenxu, a rich young master born with a silver spoon in his mouth, was willing to cook for her. That alone was enough to show his sincerity...
The two of them got up rather late, so they didn't linger in bed for too long. After washing up, they went downstairs.
The housekeeper had already prepared breakfast, and Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu went downstairs and ate it immediately. Li Chenxu had been quite busy with work lately, so after breakfast, he didn't linger at home for long before driving to the company.
Perhaps because of her illness, Mu Xiaoyu was listless. So after Li Chenxu left, she didn't rush to finish her manuscript as usual, but instead curled up on the sofa and watched TV.
It's almost noon now, and noon and evening are usually the times when entertainment news appears most frequently.
Mu Xiaoyu had just turned on the TV when she saw news about Lin Xia on it.
She didn't actually have a deep impression of Lin Xia. In her previous life, she had seen her a few times when attending banquets with Li Chenxu. She knew that Lin Xia had feelings for Li Chenxu, so she never gave her a friendly look whenever they met.
At that time, she didn't like Li Chenxu, so she didn't take Lin Xia's hostility towards her to heart.
But now...
It's unclear what Mu Xiaoyu was thinking, but the next moment, her bright eyes suddenly narrowed, and her gaze turned extremely dangerous as she looked at Lin Xia on the television screen.
However, the next moment, when she saw the entertainment news, Mu Xiaoyu's lips suddenly curled up, revealing obvious joy.
A man of Li Chenxu's stature, now embroiled in a scandal with a rising star, has caused a huge uproar in just one day. Lin Xia has been bombarded with interviews, but without exception, while she claims there's nothing between them, her evasive answers and ambiguous shyness only fuel speculation and further solidify the rumors of an affair between her and Li Chenxu.
However, at this time, the television news broadcasts, in addition to the press release from the Li family clarifying their relationship with Lin Xia, also included evidence from Liang Yi's side accusing Lin Xia of seducing Li Chenxu.
Last night, as soon as this evidence and press release came out, all of Lin Xia's previous scandals seemed to have been turned on and came out all at once.
Even though Lin Xia is the daughter of the Lin family, she couldn't withstand the abuse from hundreds of millions of netizens.
Sure enough, the TV was showing an interview video of Lin Xia crying and apologizing to Li Chenxu.
Seeing Lin Xia's face on TV, her makeup ruined by tears, Mu Xiaoyu smiled with satisfaction, but also felt somewhat unsatisfied.
In her past life, she would have only felt sorry for Lin Xia, and perhaps even thought that Li Chenxu and Liang Yi had gone too far.
But now, she only feels it's not enough.
Regardless of whether she likes Li Chenxu now, the fact that Li Chenxu is already married, yet Lin Xia is still eyeing him, makes her a bad person. And that's not all; she even came up with the same method as before—the one to destroy other people's marriages.
From this perspective, Lin Xia and Wu Qianru are essentially the same kind of people and don't deserve any sympathy from anyone!
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneer. She had previously thought that Wu Qianru would be her biggest enemy after being reborn, but now it seems that Wu Qianru is not the only enemy.
"Madam, there's a Miss Lin outside who says she wants to see you. She seems to be that celebrity from TV. Would you like to see her?"
Just as Mu Xiaoyu was watching intently, the family's servants suddenly came over. They clearly knew a little about what had happened yesterday, and they looked at Mu Xiaoyu with great caution as they spoke.
"Lin Xia, right? Let her in."
Without even thinking, it was obvious that the person coming was Lin Xia. Given Li Chenxu's personality, he would never just let Lin Xia apologize on TV and be done with it. What kind of talk would it be if he didn't come to apologize to her in person?
