Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu shook his head. After pondering for a moment, he looked directly at Mu Xiaoyu with his deep eyes and said with a serious expression, "Mu Pengzheng has already been quite discreet about what happened before. If we strengthen our defenses, Mu Pengzheng will definitely be even more careful. Moreover, almost half a month has passed since the last incident, but Mu Pengzheng hasn't made any moves. I suspect... he has some big plan in the works."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu was speechless. She stared blankly at Li Chenxu in front of her, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. There's not much evidence right now, and we haven't really found out who's behind this. Saying more won't help."
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu remain silent, Li Chenxu chuckled and reached out to pinch Mu Xiaoyu's cheek.
Mu Xiaoyu slapped Li Chenxu's hand away, glared at him, but didn't say anything more about it.
She hadn't properly drawn any manuscripts since the kidnapping incident. After talking with Li Chenxu for a while, she went back to her study to finish her manuscript.
Once Mu Xiaoyu is immersed in her work, she basically doesn't react to anything that happens in the outside world.
Li Chenxu visited her once during the trip. Seeing her focused expression, he had the maid prepare some fruit for her and then left Mu Xiaoyu alone.
Li Chenxu closed the study door and was about to go to the bedroom to rest when the television suddenly turned on.
It was almost 10 p.m., and no one knew who was calling at such a late hour. When Li Chenxu saw the caller ID, his face immediately darkened.
Why are you calling at this hour?
“Brother Shenxu, no matter what, we grew up together since we were little. Putting aside what happened before, you can’t be so cold to me.”
The person who called Li Chenxu was none other than Xu Sulin. Since their last meeting with the Li family, none of them had been in contact. Now, so late, for Xu Sulin to call directly—Li Chenxu didn't believe there was nothing wrong.
Hearing Xu Sulin's words of weakness, Li Chenxu remained unmoved, instead letting out a cold, sinister laugh.
"You don't need to say so much, just tell me what you want to do."
Li Chenxu's almost heartless attitude silenced Xu Sulin on the other end of the phone. After a while, just as Li Chenxu was getting impatient and about to hang up, Xu Sulin suddenly laughed.
"Brother Chenxu, you're always like this... Never mind, I won't talk to you about those things, after all, you don't buy into that... You know I'm at the Li family now, as for why I'm here, I won't tell you, if you want to know, ask your uncle... I just want to say, are you really planning to stay with Mu Xiaoyu forever, even if you have nothing, you'll still stay with her?"
What's the point of asking this question?
Li Chenxu doesn't have much patience when dealing with other people, and his tone was full of impatience.
"So, you really intend to stay with her forever."
Xu Sulin murmured to himself, and then laughed as he spoke.
"Since that's the case, then Brother Shenxu, don't blame me. I've liked you for so many years, and I didn't just watch other women take you away for nothing. Even if I can't have you... I still will."
Xu Sulin didn't continue speaking, but the sinister and ruthless intent in her words was clearly evident. Even without her further words, Li Chenxu understood Xu Sulin's meaning.
Li Chenxu didn't like having multiple enemies. In the past, he would have definitely tried to deal with Xu Sulin and make him give up the idea. But now, Li Chenxu didn't want to wrong Mu Xiaoyu in this matter. Besides, he knew Xu Sulin better than anyone else, and he didn't believe that Xu Sulin lacked the ability.
Thinking of this, Li Chenxu didn't look at the phone that had already been hung up, and without thinking much about it, he put his phone away and went back to his room.
Li Chenxu didn't tell Mu Xiaoyu about Xu Sulin's phone call, but even if he didn't say it, Mu Xiaoyu could guess what Xu Sulin wanted to do based on what happened afterward.
After the last movie press conference, the effect far exceeded expectations. In order to maintain the hype, the movie's official Weibo account will occasionally release some spoilers that are not really spoilers.
However, just five days after the press conference, a short video released by the official Weibo account revealed a scene of Song Yin smoking.
Although the video released this time was mainly targeted at the male lead's fans, and the scenes in the video all revolved around the male lead, Song Yin just happened to appear in the very corner of the video. Although it wasn't very clear, based on the spoilers released by the production team in the previous episodes, it was possible to identify that the person squatting in the corner smoking was Song Yin.
Song Yin has always cultivated a mature yet somewhat ascetic image, and her studio strictly forbids her from smoking in public. Throughout her long career, she has never been caught doing anything wrong.
For ordinary celebrities, smoking is a trivial matter and at most an apology statement is enough.
But for Song Yin, this was a huge deal.
After the official Weibo account discovered the loophole, it immediately deleted the previous video, but it was still saved by someone with ulterior motives. The matter quickly spread like wildfire, and in just a few hours, it had already reached the top three of Weibo's trending topics.
By the time Mu Xiaoyu found out about this, things had already spiraled out of control.
Seeing all sorts of nasty comments online, Mu Xiaoyu felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Song Yin's main job is just acting. She doesn't usually take on any variety shows or TV dramas. She just focuses on making her own movies. In terms of both character and professionalism, Mu Xiaoyu believes that few people in the industry can compare to Song Yin.
But now, just because Song Yin smokes, those keyboard warriors on the internet are insulting her to the extreme, and their words are almost unbearable to read.
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't bear to watch any longer; she was afraid that if she continued to watch, she would even have the urge to kill those people. She closed her laptop and immediately dialed Song Yin's number.
The phone rang for a while before Song Yin answered it.
The first thing she heard was loud music. Mu Xiaoyu moved her phone away slightly, paused for a moment, and then asked with a hint of helplessness, "Song Yin, are you alright?"
