Chapter 666: Work Hard and Forget Your Worries
Mu Xiaoyu's assistant, Chen Tong, was waiting for her outside. When Li Chenxu went in earlier, her heart was in her throat, fearing that he would cause trouble for Mu Xiaoyu. If it weren't for the company staff holding her back, she would have rushed in.
Upon seeing Mu Xiaoyu come out, he immediately ran to her side: "Sister Xiaoyu, are you alright? Did Mr. Li... did he bully you?"
Mu Xiaoyu was lost in thought when she suddenly heard Chen Tong's words. She was taken aback for a moment, then felt a mix of amusement and exasperation. However, seeing the worry on Chen Tong's face, she felt a warm glow in her heart.
She didn't have any true friends before; Li Chenxu was practically her everything.
But things are different now. She has Song Yin, and Chen Tong and the others. Her world now includes many people; it's no longer just Li Chenxu alone.
Even if... she really does separate from Li Chenxu, and there are other people around, one day she will be able to forget him.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu gave Chen Tong a genuine smile: "I'm fine, don't worry, he won't do anything to me."
Despite saying that, Chen Tong was still a little worried. When she first started working with Mu Xiaoyu, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu were having a conflict. Chen Jie had vaguely mentioned before that a large part of the reason Mu Xiaoyu came to the entertainment industry was because of Li Chenxu.
Because of her connection with Song Yin, Sister Chen paid special attention to Mu Xiaoyu. Before Mu Xiaoyu even debuted, Sister Chen had made a detailed debut plan for her. Moreover, because Mu Xiaoyu was so popular when she first debuted, Sister Chen was certain that Mu Xiaoyu could become a top-tier actress overnight.
Unfortunately, Mu Xiaoyu discovered she was pregnant not long after her debut.
Even with Mu Xiaoyu's immense popularity, pregnancy still had a significant impact on a newly debuted female star like her. As a result, she can only currently take on ordinary jobs.
All of this is because of Li Chenxu.
Although Chen Tong was afraid of Li Chenxu, she also had a lot of opinions about him.
In her opinion, if it weren't for Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't be in this situation now.
She knew that when Li Chenxu was good to Mu Xiaoyu, he was genuinely good to her. But what good was it? He still betrayed her, didn't he? Just thinking about that photo made Chen Tong furious.
"Alright, I know that what happened between me and Li Chenxu has affected you a bit too. Anyway, it's already happened, so there's no use being sad anymore, right? Let's just focus on doing our own things now."
"But Sister Xiaoyu... your belly is starting to show, and you'll be taking a break from your gigs next month."
The more Chen Tong talked, the sadder she became. She wasn't as strong as Mu Xiaoyu to begin with, and as she spoke, she almost burst into tears.
Mu Xiaoyu was still feeling down, but after Chen Tong's actions, she lost all interest in herself and quickly comforted Chen Tong, who was about to cry: "It's okay if the announcements are stopped. Don't forget what my job was before? Recently, the comic updates have been much slower than before, and the readers are urging me to stop. Now that the announcements are stopped, I can catch up on my manuscripts and draw. You can come and help me out then."
"But I can't draw..."
"It's okay if you don't know how, I can teach you. And you'll only need to do some simple storyboarding, which is much easier than being an assistant. You won't have to run around as an assistant for other artists while I'm resting."
Mu Xiaoyu has always been generous to those around her. Chen Tong has worked for her for so long and has always done a good job. She is also a good person. So even for some simple storyboarding work, she would pay Chen Tong a high salary.
Perhaps because of work, Mu Xiaoyu didn't have time to think about her relationship with Li Chenxu anymore.
In the past, when she encountered such situations, she would take the initiative to resolve them and find out the truth.
But for her now, the truth is no longer important.
Mu Xiaoyu had several engagements in the afternoon, and by the time she finished, it was already evening. Now that she's pregnant, things are different from before. By the end of the day, she was completely wilted, like a frostbitten eggplant.
Chen Tong, watching from the side, felt sorry for her: "Sister Xiaoyu, why don't I just take you home now? You don't need to go to the studio."
We had previously agreed to record one more song before finishing all my engagements next month. I was handpicked by the Environmental Protection Bureau to record a promotional song. Previously, due to various false news reports, Mu Xiaoyu's image among the public had already become quite negative.
However, the Environmental Protection Bureau handpicked Mu Xiaoyu, so now Mu Xiaoyu is a legitimate artist recognized by the government.
Once the song is recorded and the music video is filmed, all of Mu Xiaoyu's previous blemishes, which were hardly even considered stains, will disappear.
Today was the day Mu Xiaoyu was to meet with the singing teacher at the studio. Normally, she might have considered finding another time.
But today, she didn't have that thought at all.
That feeling of being tired yet fulfilled filled the sadness and disappointment in her heart. Sometimes, when you're busy, you really don't have time to think about trivial things.
So when Mu Xiaoyu heard Chen Tong's words, she smiled and said, "No, it's our first meeting after all, and we should leave a good impression. By the way, go buy some drinks and food. We'll be there around dinner time, and we don't know if they've had dinner yet, but it won't hurt to buy something."
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't very good at interpersonal relationships before, but after she got together with Li Chenxu, she frequently visited the Li family for a period of time.
Li Chenxu was even more clumsy than her when it came to interpersonal relationships.
At that time, she thought that she could help Li Chenxu in any way she could, so she learned to get along with the people in the Li family. It wasn't that she wanted to get along with them exceptionally well, but if she treated them a little better, they would work more diligently for Li Chenxu.
It was around that time that her interpersonal skills improved considerably.
Upon hearing this, Chen Tong immediately slapped her forehead: "That's right, how come I didn't think of that?"
She was a little annoyed; after all, she was Mu Xiaoyu's assistant. Things like this were usually handled by the agent or assistant.
On their side, it's as if everything has been turned upside down.
Chen Tong felt a little annoyed, and pouted slightly as she looked at Mu Xiaoyu and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, am I really useless?"
Chen Tong has been in this industry for several years and is quite capable in all aspects; otherwise, Chen Shu wouldn't have assigned her to Mu Xiaoyu's side.
