The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 545: Clash of Titans

When Mu Xiaoyu saw Li Chenxu, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't told Li Chenxu about attending the dinner party.

However, at this moment, that is a secondary issue. The most important thing is how to explain it to Li Chenxu.

Mu Xiaoyu watched Li Chenxu from afar, pursed her lips, and finally whispered an apology to the people at the TV station before jogging towards Li Chenxu.

"How did you come?"

Seeing Mu Xiaoyu approach, Li Chenxu's expression softened slightly. He looked down at Mu Xiaoyu, whose expression was calm, as if she didn't think entering the entertainment industry was a wrong thing.

That's true to a certain extent. Mu Xiaoyu is an independent person, not Li Chenxu's personal possession. Her career choices and future path have little to do with Li Chenxu.

Now that Mu Xiaoyu has entered the entertainment industry, Li Chenxu has no right to be angry at all.

Li Chenxu obviously knew this too, and now that Mu Xiaoyu had asked him this question, he had no way to answer it.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Li Chenxu remained silent for a long time, Mu Xiaoyu asked again.

This time, Li Chenxu concealed the complex emotions in his eyes. He shook his head, then took Mu Xiaoyu's hand and walked towards Gu Yeqi and the others, saying, "It's nothing, it's just that you're going to a dinner party tonight, why didn't you tell me? It made me a little worried."

"I just forgot..."

Mu Xiaoyu found Li Chenxu's current reaction somewhat abnormal, but with so many people around, she didn't say anything more. She let Li Chenxu pull her along to Gu Yeqi and the others.

As for who notified Li Chenxu, it's pretty obvious without even thinking. It's always the same few people coming and going; who benefits the most from calling Li Chenxu over? It's probably whoever suggested it.

Thinking about this, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly felt a little irritated. She didn't like this feeling, as if everything she did was dependent on Li Chenxu.

Actually, Mu Xiaoyu had already come to terms with this before, but now, for some reason, this thought suddenly came back.

She looked at Li Chenxu beside her. He had always been a person in a superior position, and now, even when facing these people in the entertainment industry, he maintained a cold and distant attitude, even with a sense of superiority.

At this moment, Li Chenxu had already greeted the others, except for Gu Yeqi.

Gu Yeqi and Li Chenxu had met before, and they were both aware of each other's rivalry. Now that they had met, neither of them was going to give the other a friendly look.

Especially Gu Yeqi, who was unaware of the complicated matters between Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu. Therefore, in his eyes, Li Chenxu was an absolute scumbag.

He truly loved Mu Xiaoyu, so even if Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to be with him, he didn't want her to be with that scumbag Li Chenxu.

Without even greeting Li Chenxu, she gave him a cold look, then walked to Mu Xiaoyu's other side and said with a smile, "Sister Xiaoyu, they just said they haven't decided what to eat yet. Is there anything you want to eat?"

To be honest, Mu Xiaoyu was quite tired after all that work today. Hearing this, she thought for a moment and said, "How about we have lunch? I'm a little hungry right now."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Chenxu said, "I've already made a reservation. Let's have Japanese food tonight, so as not to waste it."

Li Chenxu's tone was calm and indifferent, revealing nothing unusual, but Gu Yeqi's expression changed immediately upon hearing his words.

Gu Yeqi's Baidu Baike entry states that he dislikes Japanese food. Because of his popularity, especially his recent meteoric rise to fame, even those unfamiliar with him know something about him.

Unfortunately, Mu Xiaoyu was unaware of this.

She was hungry, and at this point, she didn't care what she ate, as long as it filled her stomach. So when Li Chenxu suggested Japanese food, she didn't object.

Gu Yeqi was young and easily provoked. Seeing Li Chenxu's somewhat provocative attitude, he impulsively agreed.

Mu Xiaoyu noticed that Gu Yeqi was acting strangely and couldn't help but glance at him again. Just as she was about to ask Gu Yeqi what was wrong, Li Chenxu grabbed her hand and left.

They were in the parking lot, a relatively secluded spot, but it was still possible for fans or entertainment reporters to wander in, so it wasn't a good place to talk. Li Chenxu pulled Mu Xiaoyu away, and Mu Xiaoyu didn't say much, obediently following him into the car.

Gu Yeqi had his own van, and everyone else drove their own cars. After all, they didn't have the courage to hitch a ride with Li Chenxu. Mu Xiaoyu knew this, and just as she was about to close the door after getting into her car, Gu Yeqi dashed in.

Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's slightly surprised look, Gu Yeqi grinned at her and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, my car broke down. I'll hitch a ride with yours. You won't mind, will you?"

Mu Xiaoyu naturally wouldn't mind, but just because she didn't mind didn't mean others wouldn't. Thinking this, she subconsciously glanced at Li Chenxu beside her, and sure enough, Li Chenxu's face was almost as black as the bottom of a pot.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu quickly covered her mouth and coughed lightly, giving Gu Yeqi a wink, signaling him to leave immediately. She didn't believe he was saying the car was broken.

However, looking back, Ye Qi seemed determined to play dumb. He looked completely bewildered and even blinked innocently at Mu Xiaoyu. Then, without giving Mu Xiaoyu a chance to react, he slammed the car door shut.

The car was spacious; there was plenty of room for Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu to sit together. But now that Gu Yeqi had entered, the space suddenly felt cramped.

Or to be more precise, the atmosphere has changed.

Even Mu Xiaoyu felt somewhat at a loss in the face of this atmosphere.

She subconsciously touched her earlobe, unsure of what to say to ease the tension. Li Chenxu remained silent, perhaps still angry with Mu Xiaoyu.

Gu Yeqi, however, sensed Mu Xiaoyu's embarrassment. He gave Mu Xiaoyu his signature smile and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, how did you feel recording the show today? Were you happy? Did you find it exciting?"

"It's alright, it's just a bit novel. The host is good, so it's not boring. You've participated in so many shows, you must be used to it by now, right?"

Mu Xiaoyu tried her best to ignore Li Chenxu's scorching gaze, gave a dry laugh, and answered Gu Yeqi.
