Chapter 1: First Meeting
"Today's entertainment headlines, this morning the chairman of Chenfeng Entertainment Agency, the country's largest entertainment company, announced that he would retire from the chairmanship of Chenfeng Company, and his son Gu Sichen, the young son of Chenfeng Entertainment, will become the new chairman of the company."
Mu Xinghe, who had just come back from running in the morning, just turned on the TV and heard the morning broadcast on the TV, Mu Xinghe didn't care about the news on the TV at all, just drank the coffee that the nanny had brewed for himself.
[Hey, brother, what's wrong, call early in the morning.] Mu Xinghe picked up the phone that had been ringing on the table and answered.
[I can't go back next week, I may not be able to go back, you help me send Niannian to school, I'm not very relieved when I start school. Mu Yunian's voice rang softly on the other side of the phone.
[Well, okay, I know, when are you coming back?] Mu Xinghe looked at Gu Sichen who was interviewed on TV and asked Mu Yunian casually.
[I'll be back at the end of the month, what are your recent schedules?] Mu Yunian still asked Mu Xinghe gently.
[Well, I'm going to participate in a recording of a TV series OST the day after tomorrow, and then I'm going to start school next week. Mu Xinghe frowned and looked at Gu Sichen, who was smiling at him on the TV, and frowned.
[Well, okay, the people over Morrowind called me again and asked if you wanted to sign up with their company. There was the sound of turning the paper from Mu Younian's side.
[Don't, if you sign a brokerage company, you will be very strict, I am such a person who advocates freedom, so I am not ready to sign them. Mu Xinghe finished the last sip of coffee and put the quilt on the table.
[Well, okay, but the previous incident of black fans and illegitimate children made me very worried about you, now that the Internet is so developed after all, do you want me to put a few more bodyguards around you. Mu Yunian's voice said with some concern, and he was already preparing to arrange it for the secretary.
[I don't feel comfortable with too many people around me, and I'm just a small coffee, and I usually only pick up OST and singles, I still want to study first, besides, brother, you haven't already arranged it for me, I just need to be responsible for singing with peace of mind. Mu Xinghe said to Mu Yunian in an indifferent tone.
[Well, okay, then you protect yourself, if there is anything to contact me at any time, do you think about it? ] Mu Yunian was not worried when he heard Mu Xinghe say that.
[No, I was too late to catch up on the drama last night, and I'm still sleeping, but I guess I'm about to wake up. Mu Xinghe looked at the time on his watch, then looked at the time on the TV, and silently turned up the sound of the TV.
[Okay, then I still have something to do here, if you have something to call me, if you don't have money, send me a message, I'll call you. Mu Yunian smiled as he listened to the sound of the TV on the phone.
[Well, I know, brother, take care of yourself over there. Mu Xinghe also said with a smile in his tone.
[Well, then I'll hang up first.] Mu Yunian reluctantly hung up the phone.
Mu Xinghe looked at the time on his watch, and the corners of his mouth pulled evilly, Mu Xinghe turned up the sound of the TV a little louder, at this time the sound of the TV had reached 30+, and the nanny and other servants who were working on the side were accustomed to wearing earplugs silently, and Gu Mingyang at this time also silently put on earplugs.
"The following is a report from Thai Entertainment, after the well-known Thai BL actor rainbow Chinese name Gu Mingyang will complete his studies in June, Gu Mingyang's agent announced that Gu Mingyang will return to China after graduation to develop."
[Ahhhh Why don't you call me again! 】
Listening to the movement from the second floor of the villa, Mu Xinghe nodded with satisfaction and continued to watch TV with an inconspicuous smile, and the maid also put the prepared breakfast on the tea table in front of the TV after hearing the voice.
[Brother, you go back, I want to watch it again.] Mu Niannian sat down beside Mu Xinghe, and reached out to snatch the remote control in Mu Xinghe's hand.
[Mu Niannian, do you know that your mouth is stinky, can you go wash your face and brush your teeth first? Mu Xinghe paused the TV and looked at Mu Niannian who was holding his arm with disgust.
[Brother, you let me see if it's okay first, I'll go wash up in a while, please.] Mu Niannian covered her mouth and looked at Mu Xinghe and pleaded.
[No, I'll show you after washing my face and brushing my teeth. Mu Xinghe pinched his nose in disgust and looked at Mu Niannian and said.
"Actually, I am a native Chinese, I am of mixed Chinese and Thai descent, I am a Chinese nationality, so it is natural to return to the motherland, thank you Chinese fans and Thai fans for their love, no matter where I am in the future, I will continue to bring you beautiful works."
When the two were arguing, the TV silently played the picture of Gu Mingyang being interviewed, and the two of them looked at the TV at the same time in a daze, Mu Niannian's expression gradually cleared up and let go of Mu Xinghe's arm.
[West Asia, Gu Mingyang is really handsome! ] I heard that his mother used to be a first-line actress in the entertainment industry, I don't know if the eldest brother will have activities with them after Gu Mingyang comes back. Mu Niannian looked at Gu Mingyang on the TV and said while laughing.
[Uncle Lin! You are used to Mu Niannian again, and my brother is going to talk about you again when he comes back, and you are about to spoil Mu Niannian. Mu Xinghe looked at the remote control in his hand, and turned his head to look at Uncle Lin, the housekeeper standing behind him.
Uncle Lin smiled, put away the spare remote control in his hand, nodded at Mu Xinghe, and turned to leave, Mu Xinghe looked at Uncle Lin's back helplessly and shook his head, Mu Xinghe turned his head to look at Mu Niannian who continued to be a nymphomaniac.
[Mu Niannian, what do you like about him? Mu Xinghe tugged at Mu Niannian's ear and asked puzzled.
[He's handsome, and he's cute, don't you think?] Mainly, the BL dramas he plays are really good-looking, he doesn't have a fixed CP, but his universal system is a good match for anyone. It wasn't until Gu Mingyang's name and voice appeared on the TV that Mu Niannian turned around and looked at Mu Xinghe seriously.
[Tsk, I think it looks average, although I don't look at these, but I think the pair of OFFGUN you showed me last time is good-looking.] Although Mu Xinghe said that Mu Niannian was not, he would listen carefully every time what Mu Niannian said to him.
[Please, they're a real couple, okay!] And BKPP, my God, really handsome, last time my big brother took me to Thailand, I went to see their live event, that is called a sweet. Mu Niannian closed his eyes and introduced to Mu Xinghe intoxicated.
[Okay, I know, can you brush your teeth quickly, it's really enough.] Mu Xinghe looked at Mu Niannian with disgust.
[Cut, Uncle Lin, does my mouth stink? Mu Niannian lay on the sofa and turned his head to look at Uncle Lin who was sorting out the information on the side.
[It doesn't stink, we miss Miss the most fragrant. Uncle Lin looked at Mu Niannian with a doting expression.
[Uncle Lin is the best for me, Mu Xinghe, can you learn a little. Mu Niannian smiled at Uncle Lin, turned around happily and complained to Mu Xinghe.
[Come on, Uncle Lin has spoiled you since you were a child, and he has spoiled you. Mu Xinghe's heavy Mu Niannian knocked on his head.
[Ignore you, wash up.] Mu Niannian rubbed his head that was hurt by Mu Xinghe and got up and left.
[Uncle Lin, you can't spoil Mu Niannian like this, although Niannian was brought up by you. Mu Xinghe sighed lightly and turned to look at Uncle Lin.
[Miss is still young, the three of you are pitiful, grandpa and Mrs. left you in a short time, I naturally have to take good care of you. Uncle Lin shook his head and smiled at Mu Xinghe.
Hearing Uncle Lin say this, he looked at the posthumous photo of his parents hanging on the wall and didn't speak, the Mu family's parents were in a car accident on the way home from the airport when Mu Niannian was seven years old, and Mu Xinghe was only 10 years old at that time, until Mu Yunian's adult grandfather handed over the Mu family's company to Mu Yunian's hands, Uncle Lin is Mu family's parents followed the Mu family as soon as they got married, and they have always been very good to the three children of the Mu family, because of Uncle Lin's careful care, the three children of the Mu family are also very good to Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin's son's schooling is the responsibility of the Mu family, and Uncle Lin is more like a family member to them.
Mu Xinghe, who was watching TV, received a strange call at this time, Mu Xinghe frowned and answered the phone, and just after answering the phone, the assistant's voice came from the receiver.
[Ancestor, have you forgotten that you are going to talk about OST today!] The producer has been waiting for your help for hours. The assistant's voice was deafening, and Mu Xinghe frowned and turned on the phone and put it aside.
[Brother, come quickly, people have been waiting for a long time, although they didn't say anything, but we can't let others say that you are playing a big name, besides, I am your assistant, not an agent! ] The assistant's voice, which was loveless, gradually became irritable.
[You will be given an extra 10,000 yuan per month's salary. Mu Xinghe calmly picked up a piece of chocolate and put it in his mouth.
[This is not a matter of money, my company's affairs are too busy. The assistant retorted disdainfully.
[Twenty thousand. Mu Xinghe still spoke lightly.
[No, don't tempt me like this, I'm a person with a bottom line. The assistant's voice gradually weakened.
[Thirty thousand. Mu Xinghe responded while changing his clothes.
[Mr. Mu, what do you say, are we surrounded by the copper smell of money, do you need me to pick you up? The assistant's voice softened completely, and in the end, he bent his waist for five buckets of rice.
[No, I'll ride there myself.] Mu Xinghe cleaned up his hair in the mirror and hung up the phone.
In the conference room, the assistant hung up the phone with a smile on his face, cleared his throat, and turned to the producer sitting in the conference room behind him, and the producer and staff looked at the assistant who hung up the phone expectantly.
[I'm sorry, our Xiao Mu is busy with his studies, so I'll be here soon, so I'm sorry for you to wait a minute. The assistant loosened his tie and sat on the sidelines and looked at everyone with a smile.
The others smiled instantly when they heard Mu Xinghe on the road, and soon Mu Xinghe's motorcycle stopped downstairs in the company, and Mu Xinghe handed over the car keys and helmet to the waiting staff and walked upstairs.
Although Mu Xinghe covered himself tightly with a hat and a mask, he still found out about the illegitimate son of the star squatting at the door, and silently raised his mobile phone when he got off the car from Mu Xinghe, but he was also stopped by the bodyguards around Mu Xinghe in time.
Mu Xinghe stood at the door of the elevator and was bored playing with the keychain in his hand, and suddenly a person stood silently beside Mu Xinghe, Mu Xinghe's nerves immediately tensed, and he quietly raised his head to look at the man who was a head taller than himself.
At this time, the man was also taken aback by Mu Xinghe's sudden movements, but he quickly stabilized and turned his head to look at Mu Xinghe, who had covered himself tightly, and the man's eyebrows were full of extraordinary aura.
The big eyes are better set off by the double eyelids, the high nose bridge is like a mountain wind, the man retracted his gaze and looked at the elevator door that had been opened, Mu Xinghe still looked at the man in a daze.
[Don't you go in?] The man's hand blocked the elevator door that was about to close, and his thin lips opened lightly, and he said coldly to Mu Xinghe.
[Oh, come in.] Mu Xinghe reflected and walked quickly to the elevator.
Mu Xinghe and the man occupied a corner of an elevator, Mu Xinghe took a deep breath and felt a sense of oppression, and quietly turned his gaze to peek at the man's eyes, Mu Xinghe liked these eyes very much.
If you keep watching, I might think you're trying to do something wrong with me. The man smiled slightly, put his hands in his pockets, and turned his head to look at Mu Xinghe.
The man who laughed had an even more oppressive sense for Mu Xinghe, Mu Xinghe frowned and shrank into the corner, the man turned his whole body to Mu Xinghe and walked in front of Mu Xinghe.
[No, I don't want to plot against you, I ...... I just think you're ......] Mu Xinghe stammered when talking to someone for the first time.
The man lowered his head and smiled lightly and walked a little closer in front of Mu Xinghe, Mu Xinghe was completely forced into the corner, Mu Xinghe subconsciously put his hands crossed on his chest, Mu Xinghe himself didn't know why the two men wanted to block him.
So, what floor are you going to?] Or are we in the elevator all the time? The man looked at Mu Xinghe with a little nervousness, so he got up and retreated back.
[Oh, sorry, I forgot to press it.] Mu Xinghe turned his head and looked at the elevator buttons that had always stopped on the first floor, and smiled awkwardly.
Mu Xinghe stretched out his hand and quickly pressed the button of the elevator, the man looked at the button on the 8th floor that lit up, raised his eyebrows, and still stood there with his hands in his pockets.
[That...... What floor do you go to? Mu Xinghe retreated back to his original position, looking at the man who didn't move.
[Thank you for helping me press the elevator.] The man raised his eyebrows at the elevator buttons.
[Huh? Mu Xinghe's brain couldn't react at all at this time, and it took a few more glances at the buttons of the elevator to reflect, Mu Xinghe pursed his lips and didn't continue to speak.
In the elevator, Mu Xinghe would quietly raise his eyes from time to time to look at the man standing aside, and the man rubbed towards Mu Xinghe's side step by step when he didn't see it.
Suddenly, the elevator trembled violently, Mu Xinghe was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he squatted directly on the ground, and the man on the side frowned, stretched out his hand, and pulled Mu Xinghe up and pulled him into his arms.
[The elevator should have broken down, but it is still running, don't squat down and stand here don't move] The man looked at the elevator door and the place where the buttons were serious, and grabbed Mu Xinghe's hand tightly.
Mu Xinghe was so frightened that he didn't react, his hand tightly grabbed the man's clothes and buried his head in the man's arms, and soon the elevator resumed normal operation, and the man gently patted Mu Xinghe's back after making sure that the elevator was not in danger.
[It's okay, the elevator is normal.] The man's gentle voice sounded above Mu Xinghe's head.
Mu Xinghe poked his head out of the man's arms, his hand still holding the man's clothes tightly, because he was frightened, there were beads of sweat on his head at this time, the man took out a tissue and gently wiped the sweat on Mu Xinghe's head.
[That...... Thank you. Mu Xinghe looked up at the man who was wiping his sweat.
Gradually, the eyes of the two people were facing each other, because of the bump just now, Mu Xinghe's sunglasses fell aside, Mu Xinghe looked at the man with starry eyes, and the man's eyes looked at Mu Xinghe's hand unconsciously helped Mu Xinghe's face.
[Mr. Mu, are you okay? 】
[Mr. Gu, are you okay? 】
When the ambiguous atmosphere of the two people was full, the elevator door suddenly opened, and the assistant waiting at the door and the man's assistant shouted at the same time to the two people in the elevator.
At the same time, the two people turned their heads and looked at the group of people at the door in an extremely ambiguous posture, the people at the door looked at the two people in the elevator with wide eyes, Mu Xinghe was the first to react, pushed the man away, put on sunglasses and walked out of the elevator.
[Eh, Mr. Xiao Mu. The assistant watched as he walked to the left, as fast as a gust of wind.
[Don't call me, hurry up and go to a meeting.] Mu Xinghe walked straight forward with red ears.
[No, Mr. Mu, you are going the other way. The assistant stood in place with a weak opening.
[Don't say it early.] Mu Xinghe returned quickly, and the assistant complained quietly.
The assistant tried hard to hold back a smile and left the elevator door behind Mu Xinghe, and the man also walked out of the elevator closely, looking at Mu Xinghe who was panicked with his hands in his pockets and chuckling.
[Mr. Gu, are you okay? Didn't get hurt, right? The man's assistant walked up to the man's side and asked nervously.
[Let the company's logistics department send the inspection records over tomorrow, and replace the current elevator company before Monday.] The man withdrew his gaze and smiled and said coldly to the assistant on the side.
[Okay, let's do it, Mr. Gu, which Mu Xinghe just now is the singer who sang the theme song of the TV series starring our artist this time. The assistant handed the information of Mu Xinghe on the tablet to the man.
The man took the computer and carefully checked the information on Mu Xinghe on the computer, the man looked at the conference room that Mu Xinghe walked into, nodded, and returned the tablet to the assistant.
[Well, I remember if there was another person who sang with him?] The man returned to his hands in his pockets and asked the assistant next to him.
[Yes, it is also an artist in our family, the heroine of this TV series, and a newcomer, so it will be arranged to be replaced, and this song will be arranged to be soloed. The assistant seemed to understand the meaning of the man's words.
[Hmm.] The man nodded with satisfaction and smiled in the direction Mu Xinghe left.
The man looked at the tissue he was holding in his hand and wiped the sweat for Mu Xinghe just now, put it under his nose, sniffed it, and gently put the tissue into his pocket, and the man pretended that nothing had happened and walked to the office on the other side.
The assistant, who had witnessed everything, looked at his boss who was like an iron tree with his eyes sewed and smiled maliciously, and soon the assistant returned to his serious appearance and left behind the man.
