The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 661: Passing By

Chapter 661: Passing By

Given what has happened, it's best to investigate it thoroughly, no matter what.

In case there is any misunderstanding, it can be cleared up.

If Li Chenxu hadn't lied to her, perhaps Mu Xiaoyu really would have done that.

But now, Li Chenxu has lied to her time and time again. What's the reason? It's most likely because of this photo. And now it seems Xu Sulin probably hasn't even left the country, right?

Many of the doubts we had before have now been explained.

Li Chenxu, Li Chenxu, you keep saying you like her and that you won't lie to her.

But in the end, she found out in this way, which is quite ironic.

What does it feel like to be heartbroken to the extreme? Mu Xiaoyu thinks it might not be much different from what she feels now.

I feel incredibly sad, but I can't cry right now; I even feel like laughing.

Thinking this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but smile.

The assistant beside her looked at Mu Xiaoyu anxiously. She was already very worried about her, and it would be normal for her to cry. But now, Mu Xiaoyu not only didn't cry, she even laughed.

"Sister Xiaoyu... don't be like this. If you're feeling bad, just cry it out."

"Feeling bad? What's there to feel bad about at a time like this? Besides, I need to protect myself. After all... I'm not alone anymore. What if I'm in too much pain and my child gets hurt?"

After laughing, Mu Xiaoyu appeared calm, but the calmer she seemed at this moment, the more frightening and worrying she became.

"Go back, let's pretend today's events never happened."

Mu Xiaoyu quickly regained her composure and calmly spoke to her assistant. She calmly had her makeup removed, and then left the TV station with her entourage.

I had just stepped outside and hadn't even gotten into the car when Li Chenxu called.

Li Chenxu had previously said he would pick her up after she finished work. It seems that Li Chenxu has never broken his word when it comes to things like this.

In the past, if something like this had happened, Mu Xiaoyu would definitely not have answered Li Chenxu's call.

But this time, he answered the phone as if nothing had happened.

"Is the recording of the show finished?"

"Just finished, what? Are you coming to pick me up?"

Mu Xiaoyu's tone was the same as usual; from her assistant's perspective, it was impossible to discern any emotion.

"I'm almost there. Wait for me in the parking lot. I'll take you out for lunch."

"No need, I have other engagements this afternoon. Spending time with you would just waste a lot of my time. I can eat by myself, so don't pick me up. Besides, it's too late for you to come now; we're already on our way."

She hadn't even gotten into the car yet, but after saying that, she immediately got in and had someone drive away from the parking lot.

She didn't want to see Li Chenxu, at least not now.

If she were to see him at this moment, she wasn't sure what she would do.

Divorce? The two never remarried. And Mu Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that, up until now, she had only given Li Chenxu a chance to pursue her again.

Since she hasn't remarried Li Chenxu yet, no matter where she goes or who she's with, Li Chenxu has no right to interfere, right?

He's already deceiving her, so why should she care about his feelings?

At this moment, the seeds of revenge began to sprout in Mu Xiaoyu's heart.

She hated Li Chenxu's deception, and she hated his betrayal even more.

She didn't want to hear any explanations; after all, this time, she had truly made up her mind not to be with him anymore.

In that case, whether it's sturdy or not doesn't matter anymore, right?

Just as Li Chenxu entered the parking lot, his car passed by Mu Xiaoyu's nanny van after Mu Xiaoyu finished speaking.

He knew exactly which car Mu Xiaoyu was in, and stopped immediately upon seeing it. He had assumed Mu Xiaoyu would do the same, but to his surprise, Mu Xiaoyu and her car didn't stop at all and simply drove away.

Mu Xiaoyu had stopped talking on the other end of the phone. Li Chenxu didn't speak, and she didn't urge him either.

"Xiaoyu, where are you now?"

After a while, Li Chenxu finally spoke to her. Mu Xiaoyu on the other end of the phone seemed a little absent-minded. Hearing Li Chenxu's words, she said somewhat perfunctorily, "I'm already at Jianwai SOHO... I have some things to do here, so I'll hang up now. We can talk about it when I get back tonight."

This time, she didn't give Li Chenxu a chance to speak and hung up the phone directly.

The dial tone of the phone being disconnected echoed in his ears, and the beeping sound made Li Chenxu sit in the car even more silently.

Aside from a few rare occasions, the two have always had a good relationship. In fact, when they have disagreements, they always speak frankly and openly about them. So, the situation just now was something that had never happened before.

At this moment, even Li Chenxu couldn't quite understand what was wrong with Mu Xiaoyu.

Could it be because of Xu Sulin?

Given Mu Xiaoyu's personality, if it were really because of Xu Sulin, she would definitely come back to question her. But just now, Mu Xiaoyu's tone didn't seem strange at all.

It seems that she really was just too busy that she neglected Li Chenxu.

Li Chenxu sat motionless in the car, his mind filled with the words Mu Xiaoyu had just said. He thought about them carefully, trying to find something amiss.

Even if he's unwilling to face it now, he has to admit that he's a little scared.

Because he had lied to Mu Xiaoyu once or twice, and because of the photos, he felt guilty towards her. Therefore, he was afraid—afraid that Mu Xiaoyu would find out everything and leave him.

He sat in the car for a while before finally taking out his phone and opening his photo album. Inside was the itinerary he had asked Mu Xiaoyu for before leaving home that morning.

Based on this schedule, Mu Xiaoyu should go to the CBD to discuss an endorsement contract after lunch.

This is Mu Xiaoyu's first endorsement, so Chen Shu's idea is to have Mu Xiaoyu personally talk to the manufacturer and leave a good impression.

Mu Xiaoyu is very dedicated to everything she does, and she will definitely finish this afternoon's schedule early.

Li Chenxu stared at the itinerary for a long time before finally driving directly towards the CBD.

He would usually have eaten by now. But right now, he had no appetite at all. He had a premonition that he had to see Mu Xiaoyu as soon as possible; he couldn't delay, or something might happen.

To put it another way, if Mu Xiaoyu really knew about Xu Sulin, then given her personality, she would definitely leave him.

No matter what he did, he couldn't just stand by and watch Mu Xiaoyu leave him.
