Chapter 487: Delivering Food
With Lin Zhu's help, Mu Xiaoyu easily gained access to Li Chenxu's office building.
Of course, this time she didn't go near Li Chenxu's office, but was taken directly to the lounge by Assistant Lin.
"Madam, what brings you here again? You saw what happened yesterday. Coming here at this time is just asking for humiliation."
Regardless of what Lin Zhu had done to betray Mu Xiaoyu, he was genuinely saying these words for Mu Xiaoyu's sake. In fact, even he himself didn't know why Li Chenxu had suddenly become like this.
If we're talking about Li Chenxu's feelings for Mu Xiaoyu, no one knows better than Mu Xiaoyu herself. They've overcome so many obstacles before, so why has things turned out this way between them now?
Especially considering how intense and passionate Li Chenxu's feelings for Mu Xiaoyu had changed so suddenly, Lin Zhu wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
Now that things have come to this, in his opinion, it would be best for Mu Xiaoyu to stay away from Li Chenxu to avoid further humiliation.
Unfortunately, Mu Xiaoyu had already made up her mind, and no matter what Lin Zhu said, she didn't take his words to heart at all.
Hearing this, she simply chuckled and said nonchalantly, "It's alright, I was prepared for this long ago. Besides, just because Li Chenxu gave up, does that mean I have to give up too? Assistant Lin, you should know best what my relationship with Brother Chenxu was like before. Since he didn't give up before, why should I give up now?"
Lin Zhu never imagined that Mu Xiaoyu would say such a thing. He might not know Mu Xiaoyu as well as Li Chenxu, but he knew her quite well. Mu Xiaoyu was never a proactive person; in fact, one could say she was timid when it came to relationships.
The fact that she is now willing to change her mind for Li Chenxu is enough to prove Li Chenxu's position in her heart.
If Mu Xiaoyu succeeds in winning him back this time, perhaps her relationship with Li Chenxu will be even better than before.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhu's gaze towards Mu Xiaoyu deepened.
He hesitated for a few seconds before his gaze finally fell on the exquisite lunchbox in Mu Xiaoyu's hand, and he asked, "Is this for the master?"
Lin Zhu's gaze wasn't just on the delicate lunchbox in Mu Xiaoyu's hand, but also on Mu Xiaoyu's scarred hands. Mu Xiaoyu had never been able to cook, and because her hands were so fair, even the slightest scratch was very noticeable on her delicate white hands.
Now, her fair little hands had several blisters from the burns and some small wounds. There weren't many, but there were still quite a few. Even just looking at these, you could tell how much Mu Xiaoyu had suffered to make this meal for Li Chenxu.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't care at all. She had suffered countless injuries in the past. Although she was afraid of pain, she didn't care about this little injury at all.
Hearing this, she handed the exquisite lunchbox to Lin Zhu and said with a smile, "Yes, this is something I made for him myself. Brother Shen Xu seems like he's not picky at all on the surface, but he's actually quite picky about food. I hope he'll like what I made."
"Why don't you give it to him yourself?"
Mu Xiaoyu shook her head. There was no need to rush to make Li Chenxu calm down and change his mind. Right now, she just wanted to treat him well silently, just like Li Chenxu had done before. When the time was right, the two of them could talk things out properly about their relationship.
Lin Zhu looked at Mu Xiaoyu in surprise, but finally nodded and said, "Then I'll give the things to the master now. Madam, would you... like to see the master?"
"No, I just came to bring him some food. I'm afraid I'll be busy with work lately and won't have much time to come. Assistant Lin, if you'd like, please let me know if there's anything going on with Brother Shenxu."
This time, Mu Xiaoyu was genuinely asking Lin Zhu for help. She wasn't familiar with anyone else at the Li Group headquarters, and besides Lin Zhu, she couldn't find anyone else who could help her.
Lin Zhu readily agreed, saying, "Don't worry, Madam. I will keep an eye on things with the master. If anything happens, I will let you know immediately."
In order to avoid Li Chenxu finding out, Mu Xiaoyu did not stay at Li's headquarters for long after talking with Assistant Lin, and left directly.
She has other things to do today. The filming of the comic adaptation that Song Yin participated in has now been completely finished, and the post-production is halfway done, but now she has encountered some obstacles.
The director and post-production team are a bit unsure. After all, Mu Xiaoyu is the original author, so her presence might make things a little better.
"Why are you here too?"
Mu Xiaoyu was a little surprised to see Song Yin appear. The other party had arrived a while earlier than her, and she didn't know when she had arrived. She looked sleepy now.
Upon hearing this, Song Yin yawned lazily and said, "I've been here for quite a while now. The director was originally going to bring you here, but something suddenly happened at his home. Since I'm the person who knows the comics, the adaptation, and the current post-production progress best, the director called me instead."
Mu Xiaoyu nodded upon hearing this, and then went to the post-production room with Song Yin.
Mu Xiaoyu's comics are suspenseful crime comics. Originally, movies like these wouldn't require much post-production, so they should be quite simple to make.
Unfortunately, things turned out quite the opposite. In order to ensure that the final filming effect closely resembled the suspenseful atmosphere of the comic book, a considerable amount of effort had to be put into post-production.
Currently, post-production technology in China is still lagging behind, and most post-production work relies on foreign countries. Large post-production companies are basically fully booked, and you have to wait in line to make an appointment.
Fortunately, the director and his team had already taken care of all these things in advance, so there wasn't a major problem with the timing.
The key lies in the cultural differences between countries, which is why the post-production process in some areas has hit a bottleneck. That's why the director and his team are now inviting Mu Xiaoyu over.
"Look, this is what their finished product looks like now. I feel it's quite different from what was described in the book."
Song Yin pointed to the unfinished product on the screen. She was a loyal fan of Mu Xiaoyu's books, so compared to Mu Xiaoyu, she could represent the direct feelings of a group of viewers, which would have a great impact on the future box office.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, staring thoughtfully at the screen, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, she nodded and said, "Foreign suspense films mainly rely on people to create a terrifying and tense atmosphere, while in China, most rely on the environment. I think it would be better to combine the two."
