Chapter 656: Cheating Trending on Social Media

"Xiaoyu, this time you trust me."

Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu was still hesitating, Li Chenxu tightened his grip on her hand and spoke in a hoarse voice.

He remained kneeling in front of Mu Xiaoyu the entire time, without moving an inch. At least ten minutes had passed since then, and given Li Chenxu's height, maintaining that position for so long must have caused him considerable discomfort in his lower body.

Even so, he did not show any signs of discomfort.

Mu Xiaoyu looked down at Li Chenxu and suddenly wondered if she had been too harsh on him.

To be fair, Li Chenxu was really good to her.

If the two separate, Mu Xiaoyu isn't even sure if she can meet a man as good to her as Li Chenxu.

“Li Chenxu…”

"I'm here."

"I believe you this time, but if you really lie to me, I won't forgive you next time. I'm not a generous person, so don't think that I'll forgive you after you've lied to me."

Li Chenxu did not want to hear Mu Xiaoyu's words. He had lied to Mu Xiaoyu and concealed the truth about Xu Sulin.

If he really had something going on with Xu Sulin, it could even be said that he betrayed her.

If Mu Xiaoyu knew about all this, her reaction would likely be more than just leaving him. Given Mu Xiaoyu's clear-cut love and hate, she might very well leave him and go somewhere he could never find her again.

That outcome was definitely not what Li Chenxu wanted to see.

Therefore, no matter how much effort it takes, we absolutely cannot let Mu Xiaoyu know about Xu Sulin.

Li Chenxu had already made up his mind. After a moment, he solemnly nodded to Mu Xiaoyu and promised, "I won't lie to you." This was the last time he would lie to her about Xu Sulin. He wouldn't lie to her about anything else, no matter what it was, just this once.

Having said all that, Li Chenxu had explained the situation. Mu Xiaoyu had only overheard part of Li Chenxu and Lin Zhu's conversation and had no substantial evidence.

If she keeps bringing this up, it would make her seem unreasonable.

So in the end, Mu Xiaoyu reluctantly forgave Li Chenxu.

Even so, she wasn't in a good mood and didn't really want to talk to Li Chenxu when she left the office.

It was quite late when the two left the company; it was well past closing time, and there were practically no people left in the office.

Furthermore, Mu Xiaoyu left fully armed as before, so even when she left, no one knew that the person who came to the company today was her. Until the very last moment, the employees of Li's Group still thought that the person with Li Chenxu was Xu Sulin.

The female employee who took the photo earlier was originally indignant on behalf of Mu Xiaoyu. That evening, after get off work, she uploaded the photo of Li Chenxu hugging 'Xu Sulin' to the website and also said a lot of things about Li Chenxu being a scumbag.

It was originally just personal indignation, and I didn't think too much about it before posting it directly. I didn't expect these photos and my words to cause any waves online.

However, this person seems to have forgotten that Mu Xiaoyu's current identity is different from before.

Although Mu Xiaoyu is not a top-tier celebrity right now, she has just debuted and is gaining momentum. Chen Shu is also heavily promoting her, so she has a very high level of popularity and an astonishing number of active fans.

So, on the night the female employee uploaded this Weibo post, it entered the public eye within just a few hours.

The next morning, it appeared on the front page of the news.

The next day was Mu Xiaoyu's first day of work. She had just gotten up when she received a call from Sister Chen. Before she was even fully awake, she heard Sister Chen's extremely serious voice: "Xiaoyu, did something happen between you and Mr. Li?"

"Oh? Nothing's wrong."

Mu Xiaoyu regained some composure. She and Li Chenxu did have some disagreements yesterday. Actually, it was mostly her making a fuss, and strictly speaking, it wasn't anything particularly serious.

Moreover, only the two of them knew about their conversation yesterday; it was impossible for outsiders to know.

If Sister Chen is saying this now, there must be something else going on.

Sure enough, Sister Chen then said, "Mr. Li and you are trending on social media, and there's that other girl, what's her name again, Xu Sulin, right? They say Mr. Li took Xu Sulin to the company yesterday, and they even have photos. I'll send them to you now..."

As she spoke, Sister Chen immediately sent the photo to Mu Xiaoyu.

Mu Xiaoyu was still a little confused. Yesterday, Li Chenxu had basically no chance to contact Xu Sulin. He spent the morning socializing and discussing cooperation with others, and from noon onwards, she was with Li Chenxu. She didn't even see Xu Sulin.

She received the pictures that Sister Chen sent her, and when she saw the people in them, she was both amused and exasperated.

The people in the picture are clearly her and Li Chenxu. Although the woman in Li Chenxu's arms is wrapped up tightly, judging from the clothes, figure, and time, the people in the picture are clearly her and Li Chenxu.

"Sister Chen, the woman in the photo is my Li Chenxu, not someone else."

"It's you?"

Sister Chen was a little surprised, but seeing how well-covered she was in the photo, she immediately understood. Indeed, Mu Xiaoyu's status was different now; she couldn't appear directly in public, so she naturally had to disguise herself.

However, remembering what the person who posted on Weibo said, she couldn't help but advise Mu Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, there are some things I shouldn't be saying. But now you're still one of my artists, and I really want what's best for you. I know you and Mr. Li are in a good relationship now, but a man of Mr. Li's status has many women vying for his attention. You need to be careful, you know?"

"Yes, Sister Chen, don't worry, I know."

Mu Xiaoyu replied immediately, and the two tacitly avoided discussing the matter further. After talking about some work-related matters, Sister Chen hung up the phone.

"Whose phone number?"

Just then, Li Chenxu returned from exercising outside, carrying his change of clothes while asking Mu Xiaoyu a question.

Mu Xiaoyu glanced at him indifferently and said casually, "It's Sister Chen's."

Li Chenxu assumed it was work-related and didn't ask any further questions. He had just finished exercising and was still sweating. He didn't say much to Mu Xiaoyu and went straight into the bathroom.

As soon as he went inside, Mu Xiaoyu immediately turned on her phone.

Such a negative trending topic prompted Sister Chen to spend money to remove it. However, the topic was so popular that it wasn't removed immediately, and Mu Xiaoyu naturally saw the Weibo post about 'cheating'.
