Chapter 723: Crisis

Although Qin Junling couldn't stop Chu Mu, she contacted Qing Fangxue in private, encouraging her to work harder and find a way to contain Chu Mu's heart.

In order to increase the chance for the two to be together, Qing Fangxue heard that Chu Mu was going to attend a business banquet, so she deliberately dressed up carefully and took the initiative to go.

The banquet that night was luxurious and lively, and Chu Mu's appearance immediately caused a small-scale sensation, and many people came forward to chat with him.

On this occasion that is not rich or expensive, Qing Fangxue naturally will not let go of such an opportunity, she walked calmly in front of Chu Mu, and said in an intimate tone: "Why did you come here?" I've been here for a long time. ”

Hearing Qing Fangxue's voice, Chu Mu frowned in disgust, didn't even raise his eyelids, and spit out a few words coldly: "I'm busy." ”

Although his attitude was very indifferent, fortunately, he still responded to himself, which made Qing Fangxue feel a little relieved, and continued to be cheeky by Chu Mu's side.

At the banquet, although Chu Mu had always turned a blind eye to her, Qing Fangxue still followed wherever she went, as if she was already his fiancΓ©e, and the two remained inseparable in front of everyone.

Finally, Chu Mu couldn't bear it anymore, greeted his friends in the business world, and turned his face to condense Qing Fangxue: "Please don't follow me, I'm here today to discuss business." ”

Listening to his extremely indifferent tone, Qing Fangxue's cheeks couldn't help but tense, but she still responded calmly: "I know, I want to be by your side to help you." ”

Hearing this, Chu Mu smiled coldly, and was really helpless about her entanglement, so he had to refuse with a calm face: "I don't need it." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, speeding up his pace to leave Qing Fangxue behind.

Qing Fangxue looked at Chu Mu's hurried steps, her heart was surging with anger and unwillingness, she would not lose to Yan Qingruo no matter what.

Seeing his tall and extraordinary figure walking towards the other guests at the banquet, talking and laughing and showing his handsome and handsome posture, Qing Fangxue couldn't help but be a little trance-like.

With such an almost perfect man, she will definitely not give it up, and she must win the opportunity to marry into the Chu family.

Then she walked towards Chu Mu again, but this time she didn't stick to him immediately, but kept her distance.

Seeing that Chu Mu was chatting with his friends, Qing Fangxue held a cocktail in her hand and listened to it from time to time.

At this moment, one of them asked, "Chu Shao, I heard a rumor recently, I don't know if you know?" ”

Chu Mu's eyes were slightly stunned, and his cold face didn't have much emotion, just shook his head lightly.

Seeing that he didn't know, the other party took the trouble to say: "Yesterday I was talking about business in the club, and when I was chatting, I heard that Chu Shijia and Yan Qingruo were just getting married, and the two have no real husband and wife relationship until now, just playing on the spot." ”

Hearing this, Chu Mu's cold eyes suddenly revealed a trace of consternation, but he still remained calm.

He took a shallow sip of the cocktail in his glass, pretending to be careless, and responded in an indifferent tone: "Yes, this kind of hearsay is probably not credible." ”

However, the other party swore that the information he got was accurate, and claimed that he could get evidence.

"Of course it's not hearsay, in fact, this kind of thing is quite common, I guess it must be Yan Qingruo who has some purpose, so he reached a fake marriage agreement with Chu Shijia, don't you know the inside story?" The other party is between the relationship between Chu Mu and the two, in fact, he wants to know more about the inside story.

The corners of Chu Mu's lips hooked coldly, his eyebrows flashed with disdain, and he said in a cold voice: "I'm not interested in other people's affairs, and I don't know what the inside story is, I think you should not spread the rumors." ”

Although he seemed to be calm and light on the surface, his friend's words set off a storm in his heart.

Chu Mu deliberately concealed the shock in his heart, he hated to leave the banquet scene immediately to find Yan Qingruo to question clearly.

The other party saw that Chu Mu was not interested in this matter at all, so he did not continue the topic, and continued to drink with him with his wine glass.

But Qing Fangxue, who was standing not far away, heard it clearly, and was deeply disturbed by it.

She wasn't sure if Chu Mu believed it, but she had a strong sense of crisis.

Qing Fangxue knew that once this matter was confirmed and was known, it would mean that he would not hesitate to turn around and leave and return to Yan Qingruo's side, and he would spare no effort for this.

At the moment, although Chu Mu's attitude towards herself is imminent, at least there is Qin Junling behind her to support her, no matter what, there is always a great chance of winning and successfully joining the Chu family.

But once Yan Qing didn't really marry Chu Shijia, Chu Mu would inevitably use all his energy to save the relationship between them.

The more Qing Fangxue thought about it, the more flustered she became, and she couldn't calm down, and her mind was full of ways to deal with it as soon as possible.

After the banquet, Qing Fangxue wanted to pester Chu Mu to answer his attitude towards the news, but he didn't want to see him leave in a hurry surrounded by several bodyguards, and he didn't have a chance to get close to him.

Following.

As soon as Chu Mu woke up, he saw a text message from the bodyguard, saying that they were already on standby in front of the villa.

Although Qin Junling wanted to control him, the method of grounding was obviously useless, and after Chu Mu finished washing, he didn't even eat breakfast, and left the house under the protection of his bodyguards.

When he came to the company, he sat at his desk and worked on documents, but his mind was absent-minded, full of things that his friends had talked about with him at yesterday's banquet.

However, when Chu Mu thought that maybe it was true, he felt a little happy in his heart, as if all the chaos between the two of them had been relieved, and he was just waiting for him to go and rebuild the old good.

Approaching noon, Chu Mu fidgeted in the office, and finally made a decision to go to Yan Qingruo to ask for clarification.

Walking out of the office, he immediately drove away from the company, and as soon as he saw Yan Qingruo, he couldn't help but get straight to the point.

At this moment, Yan Qingruo had just arrived at the restaurant, and when she saw Chu Mu who was already waiting at the table, she always felt that he looked a little strange today.

Usually, Chu Mu always looks like he is not easy to get close to, and his cold and calm face never shows his inner emotions.

But today it's different......

Walking to the table and taking a seat, Yan Qingruo looked at Chu Mu's impatient expression, and asked in surprise, "Is there anything wrong with asking me out?" ”

As soon as Chu Mu saw Yan Qingruo, his originally impatient heart became even more excited, and he responded quickly: "I have something I want to ask you, you must answer me truthfully!" ”

Yan Qingruo nodded blankly, feeling even more inexplicable about his unusual behavior.

"Okay, you ask......" She dragged her long voice gently, her eyes stared at Chu Mu's face, and she found that there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Originally, two days ago, Chu Mu asked about her past and asked those men everywhere, Yan Qingruo's heart was a little uncomfortable.

They have nothing to do with each other now, at least they no longer have any relationship in front of people, but Chu Mu is just restless and always pays special attention to her affairs.

Even if there is a stir, it will make Chu Mu do everything to get to the bottom of it.

This really Yan Qingruo has a headache, she just wants to maintain the status quo at present, and she doesn't want to be as worried and sad as before because of the two of them.

Chu Mu listened to her tone that was not salty or light, but it was a little difficult to speak when it came to her mouth, and instead she greeted: "I'm sorry, I asked you out in a hurry, you shouldn't have lunch yet, let's order first." ”

Yan Qingruo smiled indifferently, picked up the coffee that had been placed on the table and took a sip: "I'm not hungry, just say what you want to ask." ”

But after all, it is not so easy for the two to sit and eat together now, Chu Mu decided to treat each other politely, and took the initiative to call the waiter and order a few side dishes.

Anyway, they were already in the restaurant, and Chu Mu planned to ask Yan Qingruo while eating later, instead of being in a hurry.

Then waiting for the ordered dishes to be placed on the table, Chu Mu politely helped Yan Qingruo pick up the dishes, and gently told him from time to time: "You eat more, I feel that you are getting thinner and thinner recently." ”

Regarding Chu Mu's active concern, Yan Qingruo was silent, and even deliberately replied in an unappreciative tone: "Because I have been losing weight recently, and it has already had an effect." ”

Bumped into the muzzle, Chu Mu smiled awkwardly, and helplessly echoed: "Well, congratulations, but you still have to pay attention to your body." ”

Yan Qingruo tasted the dishes that Chu Mujia gave her, and asked in a cold tone, "What do you want to ask me about today?" ”

Hearing Yan Qingruo's urging, Chu Mu stopped what he was doing, took a sip of coffee with an elegant posture, and then slowly spoke: "I happened to hear some rumors about you, so I wanted to ask you to come out to confirm." ”

Hearing this, Yan Qingruo's eyes turned, and she vaguely realized that Chu Mu had heard of her current life.

However, she still didn't know anything, and asked with a crooked face and pretending to be puzzled: "What rumors can I have?" Tell me about it. ”

Chu Mu paused and recounted what he had heard from his friend at the banquet last night.

Yan Qingruo found that it was exactly the same as her guess, and immediately showed a disapproving look, shrugged her shoulders and replied neatly: "These are just rumors, there is no such thing at all, marriage is marriage, how can there be truth or falsehood." ”

Chu Mu wasn't sure if he was just stiff-mouthed in front of him, he still had some expectations in his heart, and asked unremittingly: "Really?" Are you sure you're not playing with Chu Shijia? ”

When he was talking to Yan Qingruo, he kept staring at her intently, always trying to detect something from it.

However, I don't know if the news is wrong, or Yan Qingruo's acting skills are too realistic, Chu Mu observed for a long time and didn't find anything unusual.

Yan Qingruo smiled slightly, looked at his puzzled face, and deliberately made a happy smile: "You misunderstood, Chu Shijia and I have a good relationship after marriage, and we are also very affectionate, and Nuonuo is still young, we are going to have another baby for him to be his companion." ”

When the words fell, Chu Mu only felt a pain in his heart, he suddenly tightened his brows, and his gaze at Yan Qingruo also darkened.
