Chapter 488: Encounter
Actually, the director and his team had considered Mu Xiaoyu's idea before, but time and financial resources were limited. The main investor in this film was the Li family, back when Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu's relationship was at its peak.
In addition, the Li family didn't get involved much in this matter. But now it's different. Although the director and his people don't know what happened between Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu, the Li family will no longer invest in this movie. They don't have much money left and simply can't afford to waste it.
Song Yin didn't hide anything from Mu Xiaoyu. After hearing Mu Xiaoyu's thoughts, she told her about it directly.
Finally, he added, "Actually, I can contribute some money. As long as the movie does well, I'll make a profit."
Both Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin have high expectations for this movie and recognize its strength.
However, professionals and ordinary viewers often think differently from each other, and perhaps no one can guarantee box office success before a film is released.
Song Yin's money was also earned through her own hard work, and Mu Xiaoyu didn't want Song Yin and the others to be innocently dragged into the conflict between herself and Li Chenxu.
So after hesitating for a few seconds, Song Yin shook her head and said, "No need, I have some funds here. Post-production can't be rushed. If it's not done well, it will have a big impact on the movie. If I don't have enough funds, I'll find a way to get them from you."
"Okay, that's good since you have your own plans. But if any trouble comes up, you can't handle it all by yourself, understand?"
"I know, don't worry..."
With Mu Xiaoyu present, they shared some ideas with the post-production team. After discussing the details, Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin left.
It was already quite late when they went out; the sky outside was already dark.
Song Yin glanced at Mu Xiaoyu, who seemed lost in thought, and then gently nudged her, asking, "What do you want to eat later? Let's go get dinner."
"No, I have to go back and cook."
"You cook? Did I hear that right?"
Song Yin nearly popped her eyes out. Although Mu Xiaoyu's family wasn't well-off when she was young, after growing up and being with Li Chenxu, it's no exaggeration to say that she's someone who never lifts a finger to cook. Cooking? The stuff she makes would be more like a biological weapon. Now that she's talking about cooking, how could Song Yin possibly believe her?
Seeing Song Yin's startled expression, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but roll her eyes: "It's true. Didn't we say before that we should start with Brother Shen Xu to make him calm down? I don't have any experience in this area, so now I can only try to do what he did to me before. Think about it, if a man like him can cook for me, why can't I?"
That's because she's smart, Song Yin couldn't bring herself to say it aloud. There are differences between people; Mu Xiaoyu is excellent, but compared to Li Chenxu, she's really far behind.
Song Yin didn't know whether Li Chenxu could do it casually on his own or had learned it specifically for Mu Xiaoyu, but she believed that either way, it wouldn't be a difficult thing for Li Chenxu.
In contrast, Mu Xiaoyu...
Looking at the injury on Mu Xiaoyu's hand, Song Yin couldn't help but touch it. Then she sighed and said, "I don't even know what to say to you. What do you call this? Isn't it 'you reap what you sow'? If you had controlled your temper before, things wouldn't have turned out like this between you and Li Chenxu. Look at your hand, doesn't it hurt?"
Mu Xiaoyu felt a little embarrassed by Song Yin's words. She withdrew her hand and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt much, but like you said, it's my own fault, and now it's time to pay for it... I won't say any more to you, or it will be too late."
After Mu Xiaoyu finished speaking, she was about to leave when a very familiar car suddenly stopped not far ahead.
Song Yin, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped. She looked in the direction Mu Xiaoyu was looking and saw the car stop. At the same time, a woman with a seductive face got out of the car. Before she could understand what was going on, she saw Li Chenxu following closely behind.
Even so, as soon as Li Chenxu got out of the car, the woman immediately and intimately took his arm. What's even more outrageous is that Li Chenxu smiled at the woman.
Mu Xiaoyu was alright. She had already seen how intimate Li Chenxu and that woman were, so although she was sad, she could bear it.
As for Song Yin, this was the first time she had seen her. Leaving aside the fact that Li Chenxu and Bai Luo were deliberately acting before, given the special circumstances at the time, everyone now knows that everything is fine, almost everything has been resolved, and Li Chenxu no longer needs to act with anyone.
So, what we're seeing right now is all real?
Song Yin was still somewhat incredulous, and quickly reached out to tug at Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu only glanced at her, said nothing, and walked towards Li Chenxu and that woman.
Li Chenxu and the others didn't seem to notice Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin's presence until Mu Xiaoyu had already walked up to him, at which point they raised their eyebrows in slight surprise.
"Mr. Li, aren't you going to introduce who this person next to you is?"
Mu Xiaoyu didn't immediately cause trouble for Li Chenxu. Instead, she stood in front of Li Chenxu and the woman beside him, looking magnanimous with a smile.
Li Chenxu remained silent, his deep eyes scrutinizing Mu Xiaoyu. His female companion was clearly afraid of Li Chenxu, and now that Mu Xiaoyu was in front of him, she dared not say anything, only cautiously glancing at him.
"This is my girlfriend, Ningning."
After a long pause, Li Chenxu finally spoke. He didn't mention Ningning's name, and even when introducing her, his tone was nonchalant. Mu Xiaoyu even suspected that Li Chenxu might not remember Ningning's real name.
But none of that matters, since her goal isn't Ningning anyway.
The brief moment of distraction was fleeting. Mu Xiaoyu maintained her magnanimous demeanor, looking earnestly at Li Chenxu and saying with a smile, "Considering that Mr. Li and I were once husband and wife, could you lend me Sister Ningning for a while? I'm thinking of changing my style recently, but I don't have any women around me with a similar style to Sister Ningning. I'd like to buy some clothes and ask Sister Ningning for her advice. I think someone as generous as Mr. Li would agree to my request, right?"
