Chapter 67 Acting
Mu Xiaoyu didn't know what Chen Lan had been doing these past few days, but one thing was certain: the other party was definitely not as honest as she thought. Now she had even learned to use the media to cause trouble; it seemed she was a bit smarter than she had imagined.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Just as she was about to speak, Li Chenxu suddenly tightened his grip on her hand, clearly signaling her not to make any rash moves.
Since the misunderstanding with Li Chenxu was cleared up, Mu Xiaoyu has trusted Li Chenxu much more.
So seeing Li Chenxu like this, Mu Xiaoyu didn't say much. She just held Li Chenxu's hand and stood quietly behind him, coldly watching the ugly faces of the entertainment reporters in front of her.
Li Chenxu hadn't expected this to happen so suddenly. Compared to Mu Xiaoyu's anger, Li Chenxu appeared much calmer on the surface. At least, the way his eyes sized up the entertainment reporters present was like that of a wild beast lurking in the shadows, ready to devour them at any moment.
Most of the people present were experienced entertainment reporters. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't dare to bother Li Chenxu at all. But this time, the news was much more explosive than before.
For a prestigious and upright family like the Li family, it would be a serious matter if a married woman were to become embroiled in a scandal. So, without much thought, they came knocking on their door.
However, they overestimated their ability to withstand it. Li Chenxu hadn't said a word, but just looking into his eyes gave them a terrifying urge to shudder.
The entertainment reporter who was originally standing at the front was really afraid of Li Chenxu's eyes and subconsciously wanted to take a step back.
His movements were actually minor, but Li Chenxu happened to see them.
Li Chenxu suddenly chuckled, his gaze towards the entertainment reporter carrying a somewhat unfathomable meaning.
"Why are you backing away? Didn't you have questions for me? Why aren't you asking them now?"
At this moment, Li Chenxu was truly terrifying. He didn't utter any threatening words; in fact, a faint smile played on his lips as he spoke. But the more he acted this way, the more frightened the entertainment reporters present became.
This is what a smiling fox is like—it eats people without spitting out the bones!
Several female entertainment reporters with less courage turned pale and almost burst into tears when they saw Li Chenxu's appearance.
No one present, or even anyone combined, dared to provoke the Li family. They were already somewhat apprehensive before arriving, and now, under Li Chenxu's gaze, they couldn't utter a single word.
Some of the entertainment reporters at the back were already preparing to flee. Forget about this sensational news; if they really offended the Li family this time, not only would they not get the news, but they might also get themselves into trouble!
"What are you doing! Why are you bothering Sister Xiaoyu!"
However, just then, a familiar voice came from nearby. Everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the voice and saw Chen Lan standing not far away with a panicked expression. When she saw them looking over, she quickly ran to Li Chenxu and the others and forcefully pushed away the entertainment reporters surrounding Mu Xiaoyu and the others.
Don't you feel any remorse for doing this?!
No one knew what was going on, but Chen Lan's expression looked like she was about to cry, looking at the pitiful person.
The entertainment reporters were already too scared to say a word by Li Chenxu. When they heard Chen Lan's words, they were even more silent, standing there not daring to move. Apart from Chen Lan's sobs, there was almost no other sound, and the scene suddenly became a bit strange.
After saying this, Chen Lan immediately turned to look at Mu Xiaoyu, who had a cold expression. The next second, she knelt down in front of Mu Xiaoyu with a thud.
“Sister Xiaoyu, I really don’t know how things turned out this way. These reporters… I didn’t bring them here, Chen Hao did. I only just found out… It really wasn’t me, Sister Xiaoyu, it really wasn’t me…”
As Chen Lan spoke, tears streamed down her face, and she almost sobbed uncontrollably. If it were anyone else, no matter who they were, seeing Chen Lan in such a state might have stirred a pang of sympathy in them.
Unfortunately, Chen Lan was now facing Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu. Li Chenxu, needless to say, was meticulous and had sharp eyes that few could match. He could tell at a glance whether Chen Lan was acting or not.
As for Mu Xiaoyu, although Chen Lan and Xi'an Azi's appearance did not seem to be faking it, after experiencing so much intrigue and backstabbing, Mu Xiaoyu was immediately certain that Chen Lan was behind it all the moment she appeared.
If Chen Lan truly wants to repent, then even if she wants to do something to make amends, she will do it secretly in private.
In contrast, Chen Lan has not only lured those entertainment reporters here, but has even done this in front of them.
She wanted to put Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu in a difficult situation. If Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu didn't forgive her in this situation, the entertainment reporters present would go back and spread the news extensively. The bolder ones would even take photos and post them online. This would definitely have a significant impact on the Li family and on Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu.
The magazine's comic competition has been underway, and Mu Xiaoyu's serialized comic is being published separately. If this gets out, Mu Xiaoyu's career will be affected.
But if she forgives him, Chen Lan will definitely try to force Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu to make some promises that are favorable to her in front of so many entertainment reporters.
When you do the math, Chen Lan really does have a good plan.
Mu Xiaoyu looked over at Li Chenxu, who had a chilling smirk on his lips, clearly having thought of this as well.
Although Mu Xiaoyu really wanted to teach Chen Lan a lesson at this moment, she was now Mrs. Li. Facing so many entertainment reporters, if she was not careful and said something, it might be magnified countless times by these people, bringing trouble to the Li family and Li Chenxu.
So Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, simply watching everything unfold.
As if by telepathy, the two exchanged a glance. The next moment, Li Chenxu's icy gaze swept over every entertainment reporter present before he slowly spoke: "I'm sure all of you here are well aware of Chen Hao's situation. Do you think his family bears no responsibility for such a scumbag and social outcast? Even if they don't, with Chen Hao in this situation, do you think Chen Lan can escape unscathed? If she continues to work at her previous magazine, do you think she can continue to work there peacefully?"
