The audience was stunned by Su Yuexin's words. They were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They had thought that this was a very romantic thing. The male lead had painstakingly prepared a romantic performance for the female lead, and the story should have been about the male and female leads hugging and kissing. But why was the female lead so determined to reject everything that the male lead had painstakingly prepared for her? And he even said such heartless words?
However, in Su Yuexin's heart, she simply felt that those words had spoken her heart. No matter how good the things that Zhang Haichao gave her were, they could not be related to the word happiness. The happiness she wanted was not a priceless gift, nor was it a romantic scene like those in TV dramas. She had never been in a relationship before, so she did not even know what happiness between a man and a woman felt like. But just now... When she saw Chen Mu standing at the gate with a bouquet of flowers waiting for her from afar, she rolled up her skirt and ran toward him without caring about anything. That feeling was like running toward happiness.
Zhang Haichao was stunned on the spot. His expression twisted rapidly until it became extremely ferocious. The high-end Dior slim-fit suit was so stupid in his eyes. He had given up everything he had, including his dignity, to please this woman. In the end, all he got in return was embarrassment and anger.
Su Yuexin didn't look at him. She just lowered her head and stole glances at Chen Mu from time to time. This man's calm temperament had once made her admire him, but at this moment, it made her feel a little disappointed. She kept thinking that if Chen Mu had decisively walked up to her and blocked her from rejecting Zhang Haichao for her, she would have thrown herself into Chen Mu's arms without caring about how many people were watching. Sometimes, when one fell in love with someone, It was too simple.
At this moment, Su Yuexin was still peeking at Chen Mu and didn't seem to care about him at all. Zhang Haichao was going crazy. His red face showed the anger in his heart. He threw the glass of wine on the ground and roared,""Su Yuexin, you'll regret it sooner or later!”After saying that, he didn't forget to glare at Chen Mu as if he was going to eat him alive. He then turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.
" Uh..." The bartender stood there in a daze. He knew that everything was over, but it had nothing to do with him. He would still receive Zhang Haichao's reward, and that was enough. So, after thinking it through, he called his assistant over, packed his things, and prepared to leave.
Su Yuexin lowered her head and said softly,"I'm really sorry for what happened…"
" Don't worry," Chen Mu comforted." It's a good thing that he's gone."”
Xiao Wan, who was standing at the side, looked at Chen Mu with a smile. There seemed to be something hidden in her eyes, but Chen Mu didn't understand it. Then, Xiao Wan said,""The bartender is already packing up and preparing to leave. Let's not just stand here like fools. Let's find a place to drink something.”
Chen Mu nodded lightly, and Su Yuexin had no objections. The three of them pushed through the crowd and came to a quiet spot in the backyard. Each of them held a glass of orange juice in their hands, and the atmosphere was still a little awkward.
"I have something to do," Xiao Wan suddenly said.”After saying that, he walked out without waiting for the two of them to respond.
Chen Mu felt a faint sense of loss, but Su Yue felt much more relaxed.
"Chen Mu, the gathering will be late. How are you going to get back then?”Su Yuexin found a topic to talk about and asked Chen Mu.
"Let's take a taxi back." Chen Mu shrugged his shoulders and said with a faint smile,""There's no bus or subway here…"
Su Yuexin burst into laughter and looked at Chen Mu.""Aiya, then you're finished. Not only are there no public buses or subways here, but there are also no taxis.”
" How could that be? When I came here, I was still..." Chen Mu was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly realized something. Who would take a taxi if they could live here? And no driver would be stupid enough to come here and wait for work…
" More than 20 kilometers…" Chen Mu gulped. Although it was not difficult for him to finish the 20-kilometer journey as he had been undergoing cell strengthening, who would want to suffer for no reason?
"Stay at my house tonight. There's a guest room.”Su Yuexin smiled mischievously.
" Uh..." Chen Mu laughed awkwardly and said helplessly,""We'll talk about it when the time comes. Perhaps some blind driver will come here to get work…"
Su Yuexin smiled and said with a red face,""Look at how scared you are. Who can do anything to you if you spend the night at my house? Really…Why don't I send you back tonight?”
Chen Mu nodded slightly. At this moment, a young man around 24 or 25 years old walked over with a glass of whiskey. He stood in front of the two of them with a smile and said,""Yuexin, Second Uncle is calling you. It's your birthday today, and so many guests are here for you, but you're here to date your boyfriend.”
"You're annoying!" Su Yuexin was embarrassed by the other party's teasing. She suddenly remembered that no matter what, she was the star of the gathering today. She could only say to Chen Mu,"Wait for me for a while, just a while. I'll go over and say hello to my parents 'friends.”
Chen Mu nodded. After Su Yuexin left, the young man didn't leave. Instead, he raised his glass of wine and gestured to Chen Mu. Ignoring him, he took a sip and looked at Su Yuexin's back."My sister is a rare good girl. If anyone dares to bully her, I, Su Hanyu, will not let them off.”
Although he said it casually, the threat in his words was very obvious. Chen Mu could only chuckle helplessly and say,""You must have misunderstood. She and I are just ordinary friends.”
"A very ordinary friend?" Su Hanyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Mu provocatively. He threatened,""Brat, if I find out that you made Yuexin shed even a single tear, I won't let you off easily.”
However, Chen Mu wasn't bothered by this person's aggressiveness. He raised his glass of juice and gestured to him. After he drank it up, he placed the glass on the small table beside him and said indifferently,""Save your threats for others. They are useless against me.”After saying that, he lifted his leg and walked out.
Su Hanyu was obviously stunned by Chen Mu's reaction. He caught up with him after a while and patted Chen Mu's shoulder from behind, shouting,""Hey, brat, you're so awesome in front of me. You're not ordinary!”As he spoke, the fingers that were patting Chen Mu's shoulder suddenly pinched Chen Mu's shoulder blade.
Su Hanyu's pinch looked easy, but the strength was not something that an ordinary person could withstand. However, Chen Mu was not as weak as he looked. Moreover, Xie Xiaobao had been strengthening Chen Mu's cells for a long time. His physique was no longer something that an ordinary person could compare to.
Moreover, Chen Mu had the most scientific fighting technique from a few hundred years later. As soon as the opponent exerted his strength, a strange smile appeared on Chen Mu's face, but he did not move.
Su Hanyu couldn't understand. He had already used 70% of his strength. Even those tough guys who frequented the gym all year round would grimace in pain when he pinched them like this. Why didn't this thin guy have any reaction at all?
Su Hanyu started to exert his strength gradually. He exerted 80%, 90%, and even 10% of his strength, but Chen Mu still stood in front of him with his back facing him.
"Damn it!" Su Hanyu cursed in his heart and exerted all his strength, but unfortunately, Chen Mu did not react at all.
Suddenly, Chen Mu asked indifferently,""Does your arm hurt?"
This was something that everyone knew. If one's arm used too much strength or even exceeded their limits, they would uncontrollably tremble violently. Their muscles would tense to the limit and it would seem as if they were about to explode. As long as they persisted in this state for a few seconds, their muscles would become abnormally sore. If they didn't recover well for a few days, they wouldn't be able to return to their previous state.
Chen Mu's words instantly deflated Su Hanyu, who had been holding his breath until his cheeks were swollen. When he suddenly relaxed, his entire arm was sore and he couldn't even lift it. He gritted his teeth and gasped. He couldn't help but blurt out," Are you made of steel?!"
Chen Mu, on the other hand, turned around with a harmless smile on his face. He looked at Su Hanyu's pained expression and gently put his hand on his shoulder. He smiled and said,""I'm sorry, you guessed wrong. I'm made of titanium alloy…"
"Ah!" Su Hanyu felt a sharp pain in his shoulder blade. The pain made his legs lose all strength and he fell to the ground. Chen Mu released his grip at the right time.
Su Hanyu, who had learned all kinds of fighting techniques since he was young and could now be considered a top expert, had always been very conceited. He did not expect to lose to Chen Mu, who looked so weak that a gust of wind could blow him over. He said dejectedly,""Alright boss, I give in. You're awesome!”
Chen Mu grinned innocently and said,""Thank you for the compliment. You rest for a while, I'll take a look around.”
Seeing that Chen Mu was about to leave, Su Hanyu hurriedly said,""Hey, wait!"
"What?" Chen Mu asked in surprise.
Su Hanyu put away his arrogant look and said seriously,""Yuexin is really a good girl. I can tell that you're very important to her.”
