The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 499 What an idiot!

Chapter 499 What an idiot!

The only person Mu Xiaoyu could borrow three million from in a short period of time was Song Yin, so Mu Xiaoyu naturally couldn't hide what happened during the day.

When Song Yin spoke with Mu Xiaoyu on the phone before, she felt that something was wrong, but she didn't have time to think about it in detail at the time. Now, after hearing what Mu Xiaoyu said, she was so angry that her head was practically steaming.

She pointed her finger at Mu Xiaoyu's nose and scolded her with exasperation, "Mu Xiaoyu, Mu Xiaoyu, have you lost your mind? Eight million? Do you think your money grows on trees? That's so easy to earn? That damn woman was clearly trying to scam you out of your money, and you agreed to give her eight million without saying a word. What am I supposed to say to you!"

Song Yin was quite angry with Mu Xiaoyu. She was usually very good at cursing, but now she didn't even know how to curse Mu Xiaoyu anymore.

If it weren't for the fact that Mu Xiaoyu's mood had been off lately, I probably would have given her a good whack on the head right now.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Mu Xiaoyu didn't argue. After Song Yin finished scolding, she said seriously, "I know I was a bit impulsive this time, but I don't regret it. Song Yin, if money can resolve the issue between Li Chenxu and me, I'd be willing to spend another ten million."

"Ten eight million? I'm telling you, Mu Xiaoyu, you're really stupid. Don't you even know if you have that much money? How dare you say that?"

Song Yin was still angry and retorted to Mu Xiaoyu without holding back.

Mu Xiaoyu showed no anger whatsoever. Upon hearing this, she even tried to appease him, saying, "I was stupid, I was stupid. Just this once, I promise, I will never do such a thing again. Song Yin, I know you're the best, so please lend me three million, okay?"

Song Yin glared at Mu Xiaoyu with annoyance. Three million was just a small amount to her; she was just feeling sorry for Mu Xiaoyu.

Although she kept saying how good Li Chenxu was and how much he had sacrificed for Mu Xiaoyu, when it came to Mu Xiaoyu's turn to say it, even the smallest thing made her heart ache.

But even if she felt sorry and angry, what could she do?

Are you suggesting I stop Mu Xiaoyu? She couldn't do something like that.

Thinking of this, Song Yin took the card out of her bag and placed it in front of Mu Xiaoyu, saying, "There's five million in this card, take it first. Don't say anything too much, you know I have a bad temper and I can't stand hearing that. Keep the remaining two million on yourself, in case you need the money somewhere, understand?"

Now, Mu Xiaoyu agrees to whatever Song Yin says. Besides, they're best friends, so neither Song Yin nor Mu Xiaoyu wants to be coy. She generously accepts the card, and then, holding Song Yin's hand with a touched expression, says, "I knew you were the best!"

"Get lost, get lost! I'm still angry, don't try to flatter me here."

Despite saying that, Song Yin showed no impatience whatsoever; on the contrary, her face was filled with obvious joy because of Mu Xiaoyu's words.

She's taken on a new script and will be filming in the Northwest for several months. Unless absolutely necessary, she won't be back. So, after telling Mu Xiaoyu about Ningning, Song Yin couldn't help but say to Mu Xiaoyu, "While I'm gone for the next few months, you won't have anyone to help you. As an outsider, I don't know everything about your relationship with Li Chenxu. Anyway, you need to protect yourself, understand?"

Knowing that Song Yin was concerned about her, Mu Xiaoyu felt a warm glow in her heart. Looking at Song Yin holding her hand, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, after going through so much, sometimes it's not necessarily a bad thing. At least, I know how to protect myself better now..."

It was already night when Mu Xiaoyu saw Song Yin off at her home. Originally, Song Yin had planned for the two of them to eat out together, since she didn't know how to cook and there wasn't much food at home.

However, Mu Xiaoyu wanted to resolve Ningning's matter as soon as possible, so she didn't go to dinner with Song Yin.

Before transferring the money to Ningning, she even had someone draft a legally binding agreement. The agreement stipulated that once Ningning received the eight million, she would have no further involvement with Li Chenxu, regardless of what he did or how he was involved with her.

After all, eight million is no small sum. Without this agreement, who knows if Ningning would actually keep her promise to Mu Xiaoyu after agreeing to it?

"I've already given you eight million. Remember the terms of the agreement: from now on, you and Li Chenxu have nothing to do with each other. So the first thing you need to do now is call Li Chenxu and break up with him."

"I promised you I'd just leave, why did you have to call..."

Ningning lowered her eyes, not daring to look Mu Xiaoyu in the eye. Upon hearing this, she muttered softly, clearly unwilling to make the call.

The whole thing about her being with Li Chenxu was fake. If Li Chenxu found out that she took so much money from Mu Xiaoyu just to leave him, then the trouble wouldn't just be about Mu Xiaoyu.

Seemingly sensing Ningning's worries, Mu Xiaoyu curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Don't worry, I won't tell Li Chenxu about the eight million I gave you. You just need to call him and tell him you two broke up. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Is it really that simple?"

Ningning was somewhat skeptical, but she was clearly beginning to waver.

Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to waste too much time on Ningning and was already getting impatient. Hearing this, he waved his hand and said, "Why would I lie to you? What good would it do me? Since I promised to give you eight million, I'll give you eight million. I won't play any tricks. As for you, stop wasting my time and hurry up and hit me!"

Mu Xiaoyu's tone was forceful, and the sharpness reflected in her eyes was something Ningning couldn't withstand. Seeing this, Ningning immediately felt afraid.

Finally, under Mu Xiaoyu's 'oppressive' gaze, Ningning bit her lip and reluctantly dialed Li Chenxu's number.

The phone rang twice before Li Chenxu answered it, and at the same time, his cold voice echoed in their ears.

“Mr. Li…”

Fearing that Li Chenxu might have unknowingly revealed something, Ningning quickly spoke before Li Chenxu could say anything.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Li Chenxu received Ningning's hint, and his tone became gentle.
