The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 58 Choice

Chapter 58 Choice

Someone like Li Chenxu would naturally not lack anything. Now that he has made this request, he must want to gain something from Mu Xiaoyu.

Mu Xiaoyu wasn't stupid; how could she not understand what Li Chenxu meant? She couldn't help but pout and said, "Then what do you want?"

"Xiaoyu, you should know that I lack nothing. If I really have to lack anything, then the only thing I lack is..."

Li Chenxu now particularly likes to only say half of what he wants to say, leaving the rest for Mu Xiaoyu to guess.

However, Mu Xiaoyu is quite clueless when it comes to relationships. Hearing Li Chenxu's words, she really doesn't know what Li Chenxu is lacking.

She couldn't help but tilt her head and scrutinize Li Chenxu carefully. He allowed her to look at him, and even because of Mu Xiaoyu's gaze, the smile on Li Chenxu's face never diminished.

After a while, Mu Xiaoyu clapped her hands, as if she had suddenly realized something, and said happily, "I know, do you still want that abstract painting I drew for you before!"

If Mu Xiaoyu hadn't looked so excited, Li Chenxu would have thought she was doing it on purpose.

To be fair, the abstract painting Mu Xiaoyu drew for him before was actually quite good. But it was just too abstract. One painting like that is enough; any more would just be a joke.

What he wants is definitely Mu Xiaoyu, and he definitely wants to get closer to Mu Xiaoyu.

But this silly girl just doesn't understand!

Li Chenxu was at his wits' end with Mu Xiaoyu. Finally, he couldn't help but make Mu Xiaoyu turn to face him, and at the same time, he bit Mu Xiaoyu's soft lips, gritting his teeth and saying, "I don't want abstract paintings, I want you!"

Mu Xiaoyu finally came to her senses, but then a mischievous thought crossed her mind. Hearing Li Chenxu's words, she still feigned ignorance. She blinked innocently at Li Chenxu with her bright eyes and said, "I'm yours, what more do you want?"

"What do you say?"

Whether Li Chenxu did it on purpose or not, his voice was a few decibels lower and hoarseer than before, making it sound even more seductive.

Originally, Mu Xiaoyu had no resistance to anything Li Chenxu possessed, but now, being deliberately seduced by Li Chenxu, her legs immediately went weak.

So she quickly reached out and pushed Li Chenxu, pleading, "I...I know! Let me go first, and I'll give you whatever reward you want!"

Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's embarrassment and awkwardness, Li Chenxu chuckled again. However, this time he did not continue to tease Mu Xiaoyu. He released his hand from Mu Xiaoyu's slender waist and said, "Xiaoyu, you said you would give me any reward I wanted. You can't go back on your word."

"Of course I keep my word!"

At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu's heart was pounding as Li Chenxu teased her. Although she didn't know what reward Li Chenxu wanted, she belonged to him completely, so it didn't matter what reward he wanted.

Li Chenxu did not bring up the matter of reward immediately, but waited until he had investigated Chen Lan's matter thoroughly before discussing it.

However, Chen Lan's incident today made Mu Xiaoyu immediately alert. Originally, she was thinking of waiting until the current serialized comic ended before slowly drawing the beginning of the comic.

But now that I think about it, I should draw the beginning of the comic earlier and submit it.

When Mu Xiaoyu first met Chen Lan today, she still trusted him almost completely. But Chen Lan was acting very strangely today, and several times the way he looked at her was odd.

Whether in her past or present life, Mu Xiaoyu had experienced far too much scheming and intrigue. Chen Lan's unusual behavior today made her somewhat wary. She had already shown Chen Lan part of the outline for her new comic book today, and if Chen Lan acted strangely and leaked the outline, it would definitely have a significant impact on her career.

Therefore, Mu Xiaoyu must plan ahead and draw the beginning of the new comic before releasing the new book!

Li Chenxu had given Mu Xiaoyu advice on the outline of the new comic book, so Li Chenxu also consulted Mu Xiaoyu about her current plans.

"The two most authoritative comic book publishers in China right now are SQ and MT. Which one do you prefer?"

Ever since she learned that Li Chenxu was very professional in the field of comics, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but discuss with him any difficulties she encountered in the comics business.

As expected, after Mu Xiaoyu simply expressed her thoughts, Li Chenxu immediately pointed out the problem that was currently troubling Mu Xiaoyu the most.

"Actually, I want to go to both of them... but as you know, I don't have much experience, and I only have one famous work right now, so I'm worried that neither of the comic book companies will accept me."

Mu Xiaoyu certainly didn't doubt her own abilities. However, given the current environment in China, only comic artists with a bit of fame would be paid to be promoted. If you're unknown, no matter how good your work is, the other party will consider it before it becomes popular, and in the end, you might not even have the chance to publish it again.

Thinking about this, Mu Xiaoyu became extremely conflicted, and her eyes looked pitifully at Li Chenxu.

At this moment, Li Chenxu was sitting at his desk, handling company matters while talking to Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu sat opposite Li Chenxu, her chin resting on the desk, her eyes fixed on him as she spoke, her emotions clearly written on her face.

Seeing her adorable appearance, Li Chenxu couldn't resist reaching out and pinching Mu Xiaoyu's cheek.

Mu Xiaoyu has now realized that ever since she and Li Chenxu reconciled and their relationship has gotten better and better, Li Chenxu not only likes to touch her head, but also likes to pinch her cheeks.

Is her face really that easy to pinch?

As this thought crossed her mind, Mu Xiaoyu unconsciously imitated Li Chenxu's action from earlier, pinching her own cheek twice. It felt soft and ordinary, as if there was no difference...

Li Chenxu was amused by Mu Xiaoyu's actions and couldn't help but chuckle. He said, "Actually, your worries were completely unnecessary. I've talked to the editors-in-chief and executives of both of these comic book companies. Although they do consider the author's reputation, if your comic is good enough, they will give you a platform to showcase your talent. I'm very confident that your new book will be even more popular than the one you're currently serializing."
