Chapter 566: Li Chenxu, you're so annoying
Li Chenxu had given Mu Xiaoyu rings before, but never in such a formal way. This time, it even reminded Mu Xiaoyu of their early wedding day. Li Chenxu had given her a ring then, but back then it was delivered by his assistant, Lin. She didn't know if Li Chenxu had chosen the ring himself; she only knew that she hadn't cared about it then. They hadn't even had a wedding, and they weren't truly in love then, so why would she care?
But things are different now. After going through many hardships and trials, the meaning of this ring has become different.
It was precisely because of this apology that Li Chenxu had specially planned that Mu Xiaoyu's eyes were almost constantly on the ring on her hand during the meal, and the smile on her lips never disappeared.
You could immediately sense the joy emanating from her heart; she hadn't been this happy in a long time.
"Stop watching. We can watch it slowly when we get home. Let's eat something first."
Knowing that Mu Xiaoyu was happy, Li Chenxu originally didn't want to disturb her. However, seeing that Mu Xiaoyu hadn't eaten anything since then, Li Chenxu was worried that her stomach couldn't handle it, so he couldn't help but speak up.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu looked at him, her clear black and white eyes filled with a hint of resentment.
"I want to eat properly, but my eyes keep looking at the ring. In the end, it's all your fault. If you hadn't given me this ring at this time, I wouldn't be like this now."
Her plaintive tone, tinged with a hint of coquetry, momentarily dazed Li Chenxu. Even he himself couldn't quite recall how long it had been since Mu Xiaoyu had spoken to him in such a tone, how long it had been since she had acted coquettishly in front of him.
At this moment, Li Chenxu felt as if his heart was quickly occupied by something warm and hot, warm and familiar yet strange, yet it made him happy.
He couldn't resist, leaned closer to Mu Xiaoyu, kissed her on the lips, and said in a low voice, "It's my fault, it's all my fault. Xiaoyu, be good, don't be angry with me, eat your food properly, okay?"
The tone was intimate, with a hint of flattery, and it was gentle to the core.
In fact, Mu Xiaoyu had been quite indifferent to Li Chenxu during this period, even to the point of ignoring him, so Li Chenxu wouldn't have been able to say such things before, even if he wanted to.
But things are different now. The two have reconciled, and Li Chenxu no longer holds back his tenderness and affection for her. All his love seems to melt away in these few words.
Mu Xiaoyu even felt that her heart had melted upon hearing Li Chenxu's words.
However, this was outside, not at home, and most of the people present were single. In front of so many people, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't be too outrageous, so she lowered her voice and said to Li Chenxu, "Alright, let's eat properly. There are so many people here. If others see us, they'll think we're deliberately showing off our love."
"Xiaoyu, do as you please. Anyway... we saw it."
Just as Mu Xiaoyu finished speaking, the director next to her coughed twice and said these words.
Even Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel a little awkward at this moment. She couldn't help but glance at the other people at the table, and almost everyone's eyes were on Li Chenxu and her.
While on set, Li Chenxu always stayed by Mu Xiaoyu's side, but he didn't talk much. Moreover, he always had a cold and unapproachable aura when facing outsiders, so they didn't really speak to him during their time on set.
But tonight was different. Perhaps it was his carefully planned confession for Mu Xiaoyu that instantly brought everyone closer. So much so that now, when people look at Li Chenxu, he doesn't seem as unapproachable as before.
So when people look at them now, their eyes are actually filled with goodwill.
Mu Xiaoyu breathed a slight sigh of relief, smiled generously at everyone, then stood up, raised her glass to the crowd and said, "I haven't had a chance to thank everyone before. Tonight I'll be parting ways with you all, and I don't know when we'll meet again. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all for taking care of me during this time."
After saying this, Mu Xiaoyu finished her glass of wine first.
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't a talkative person, and in fact, she hadn't spoken much to the crew during this period. However, she had high emotional intelligence and didn't take advantage of her relationship with Li Chenxu to be harsh on others. In fact, she was very kind to the crew, and if she had anything, she would have her assistant bring some to the crew as well.
Therefore, everyone in the crew, even the actresses of similar age, liked Mu Xiaoyu very much.
Now that everyone heard Mu Xiaoyu say that, they started to retort to her.
It's often said that the entertainment industry is a cesspool, and while that's true to some extent, not all actors or directors are part of that cesspool. There are still directors and actors who put their heart into their work. Mu Xiaoyu is truly an extremely lucky person; from the very beginning, she encountered many wonderful directors and co-stars.
At the wrap party, everyone was just like ordinary friends, eating and drinking, chatting about everyday things, without any restraint.
Even so, Mu Xiaoyu still drank quite a bit of alcohol by the time the wrap party ended. She hadn't drunk this much in a long time, so when everyone left, she finally couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed onto Li Chenxu.
Fortunately, Li Chenxu reacted quickly and pulled Mu Xiaoyu into his arms, thus preventing her from falling to the ground.
"Xiaoyu?"
Li Chenxu reached out and gently patted Mu Xiaoyu's face. Mu Xiaoyu stared at him with her eyes wide open.
Actually, if you don't look closely, you won't realize that Mu Xiaoyu is drunk.
When she was drunk, she became extremely well-behaved, not making a fuss, as if she had become more than ten years younger, and on the surface she looked like a confused little child.
She stared blankly at Li Chenxu for a long time before finally wrapping her arms around his neck and muttering, "Brother Chenxu, you're so annoying."
Li Chenxu watched Mu Xiaoyu take a bath and couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile. He still asked, "Then tell me, what's so annoying about me?"
"You actually...you actually went to see other women behind my back...and...and lied to me..."
As she spoke, thinking about how Li Chenxu had concealed her whereabouts for Xu Sulin's sake, Mu Xiaoyu felt wronged and couldn't help but start to sob softly.
