The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 144 Crazy Fans

Chapter 144 Crazy Fans

The book signing was scheduled for 10:30 a.m. at the largest bookstore in the city center. To prepare early, Mu Xiaoyu arrived at the venue half an hour early. She arrived relatively early, but when she got there, a large number of book fans had already gathered.

As if organized, many book fans held up matching banners with her cartoon headshot and the words "Door Sound" printed on them. The whole scene looked just like a celebrity outing.

"Aren't you surprised, and a little incredulous?"

Mu Xiaoyu was in the bookstore's lounge, looking down at the fans' support, so surprised she could hardly close her mouth.

Fearing something might go wrong at today's autograph session, Li Chenxu came with Mu Xiaoyu. Hearing Li Chenxu's words, Mu Xiaoyu nodded and couldn't help but say, "I thought only celebrities did this..."

"Actually, it's all the same. Why do people like celebrities? It's simply because of their good looks. Slightly better ones focus on their inner qualities or hard work. And you and those celebrities are not that different. You have the same outstanding appearance as celebrities, and your temperament and personality are also very good. Plus, people who have read 'The Door' know your talent, so it's normal for them to like you. It's just that book fans aren't as crazy as celebrity fans."

Li Chenxu praised Mu Xiaoyu without reservation. In his opinion, he was just stating the facts. He even felt that words were too inadequate to express Mu Xiaoyu's goodness. So, at the end of his speech, Li Chenxu even had a hint of regret on his face.

Mu Xiaoyu had no idea what Li Chenxu was thinking. She just felt a little embarrassed when she heard Li Chenxu's straightforward praise.

She glanced at Li Chenxu with a hint of embarrassment and muttered softly, "Don't praise me like that, I'm not as good as you say."

"No?"

Li Chenxu raised an eyebrow at Mu Xiaoyu, and as he spoke, he walked behind her and hugged her. He took a deep breath, and his nostrils were immediately filled with the faint fragrance of Mu Xiaoyu's body.

"Xiaoyu, the real you is a thousand times, ten thousand times better than what I just said, and even in my opinion, it's far from enough. Don't think you're not good enough. In my heart, you are the best, and no one can compare to you."

If Li Chenxu had said this normally, Mu Xiaoyu would have taken it as a joke. But Li Chenxu's tone was far too serious at this moment, and besides, Li Chenxu himself wasn't one to joke around. What he was saying now was most likely what he truly felt.

For a moment, Mu Xiaoyu didn't know what to say. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but rather that she had absolutely no idea what to say. Her heart warmed and swelled with an indescribable affection upon hearing Li Chenxu's words.

Her gentle and kind nature is truly wonderful. Despite her many flaws, he sees almost nothing but virtues in her, and he praises her so openly and unreservedly.

Just these one or two points alone are something many men cannot do.

She is truly happy...

The two didn't linger in the lounge for long. After the president gave Mu Xiaoyu some more instructions, the book signing event started shortly afterward. From Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu's perspective, the book signing event was packed with people, almost filling an entire floor of the bookstore.

The organizers hadn't expected so many fans to attend the book signing. The original plan was to have four bodyguards to maintain order, but with so many more fans, they had no choice but to temporarily bring in seven or eight more bodyguards from elsewhere to barely keep things in order.

At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu were standing behind the stage. Some book fans who were close to Mu Xiaoyu saw her and excitedly covered their mouths and screamed. They looked like they were about to faint at any moment.

But Mu Xiaoyu waved back at them in a good-natured manner. The girls who saw Mu Xiaoyu were already flushed with excitement.

Seeing this scene, Li Chenxu couldn't help but chuckle softly. He subtly moved closer to Mu Xiaoyu, lowered his voice, and said in a volume only the two of them could hear, "Your fans are really enthusiastic, it's making me jealous..."

Li Chenxu was very close to Mu Xiaoyu. When he spoke, his hot breath sprayed behind Mu Xiaoyu's ear, causing a tingling and itchy sensation. Mu Xiaoyu's face immediately lit up with a smile. She couldn't help but shrink back and whispered, "It's a good thing that they like me... Don't stand so close to me. If they see us, it won't look good."

As Mu Xiaoyu spoke, she subconsciously glanced at the group of fans who had been there earlier. Because of the previous news about Chen Lan, most of Mu Xiaoyu's loyal fans knew about the close relationship between Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu. Now, seeing Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu whispering intimately in each other's ears, their gazes towards Mu Xiaoyu were full of mockery, and several of the bolder ones had even started secretly taking pictures of the two of them.

Mu Xiaoyu immediately felt a little embarrassed. Fortunately, she was used to big occasions. Although she felt embarrassed, she looked very calm. Just before Li Chenxu could do anything, she quickly nudged him with her elbow.

"Brother Chenxu! Stop fooling around, there are so many people watching!"

This time, Li Chenxu didn't make a fuss. He liked seeing Mu Xiaoyu shy. But that didn't mean he liked others seeing Mu Xiaoyu like that. Besides, in his eyes, these fans were all like wolves and tigers. The girls were alright, but many of the men looked at Mu Xiaoyu with obvious admiration in their eyes. He didn't want these people to see Mu Xiaoyu's unique side again.

So Li Chenxu abandoned his previous intention to tease Mu Xiaoyu. He covered his mouth and coughed lightly, straightened his clothes slightly, and stood behind Mu Xiaoyu without saying a word.

The autograph session started quickly. Unlike the previous award ceremonies with many people, this autograph session featured only Mu Xiaoyu. Fortunately, there was a dedicated host, so Mu Xiaoyu didn't seem bored. She even drew some lucky fans for some fun interactions and gave some perks to the fans present before the formal autograph session began.

There were so many fans this time that the original two thousand copies were not enough. Since there was still time, the organizers quickly transferred several thousand more copies from other bookstores, which solved the immediate problem.
