Shen Mu's words were indeed insightful and hit the nail on the head. He knew that this young man had feelings for Lin Xiao, which could be considered a rivalry in love, but so what?

He can give Lin Xiao anything he can give, and he believes he's no worse than Lin Xiao.

The company was bustling with people, and there was a lot of gossip going around. Yang Yixuan decided to discuss the matter elsewhere for the sake of Lin Xiao's reputation, since Lin Xiao was his sugar daddy.

"Let's talk about this in a different way. It's really not right for an award-winning actor to be talking to me on the side of the road."

Shen Mu didn't care; he could be anywhere anyway.

"Then let Young Master Yang choose a location."

"How about the coffee shop across the street? Don't people say that big bosses like to discuss business in coffee shops?"

Both of them are relatively good-looking, and they became a sight to behold as they walked through the film and television building, making many girls blush and their hearts race.

The coffee shop was packed with people and doing brisk business. Yang Yixuan casually picked a seat and called over a waiter.

"Hello waiter, two coffees, please."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Shen Mu waited for Yang Yixuan to speak. This kind of person was too arrogant; all that remained after arrogance was resentment. He knew this best, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"You like Lin Xiao, right? But I remember Lin Xiao is straight. I couldn't even turn him gay. How come you have a way?"

Shen Mu smiled: "It's not about being a straight man, it's just that I like him as a person."

It's nothing special, because I know him well, and I've been with him since I was a child.

"He just doesn't know that I like him, because this question hasn't even crossed Lin Xiao's mind yet, I know."

Yang Yixuan was a little annoyed by Shen Mu's act of knowing everything about Lin Xiao.

So what if he came first? Now that he's with Lin Xiao, doesn't he have a better chance?

"So, if we're comparing you and me, who has a better chance?"

As expected, the question raised by Yang Yixuan was the focus of this conversation. He knew that this kid had come for Lin Xiao, but he was not someone who could influence Lin Xiao's thoughts.

He said casually, "Young Master Yang, you've got something wrong. It's not about who has the chance, but who Lin Xiao will choose."

Yang Yixuan and Shen Mu hadn't spent much time together, so he didn't know that this meant Shen Mu was angry.

So he still spoke the same way, and even if Shen Mu got angry, Yang Yixuan wasn't afraid.

Since the two are rivals in love, there's no need to worry about these things.

"Really? Then I must have misunderstood. I'm sorry. But I did understand what I was saying today. Thank you."

Yang Yixuan finished the last sip of his coffee, called out for the bill, and strolled away, leaving the international film star alone, lost in thought.

Yang Yixuan was probably feeling particularly energized because of the coffee, and since he was in a bad mood, his thoughts tended to be a bit darker.

"Since you started this, Lin Xiao, don't blame me for taking action. I hope this isn't the ending I wanted."

After Yang Yixuan finished speaking, he took out his phone, logged onto Weibo, and posted the intimate photos he and Lin Xiao had taken a few days ago. The photos were all of them filming together.

Sure enough, within a few hours, he and Lin Xiao were trending on Weibo, with posts all talking about the two of them.

#Shocking news: Rising star and CEO Lin appear together in the same frame#

#According to reports, the popular young actor is Yang Yixuan#

"Are you kidding me? Wow, Lin Xiao is actually living with Yang Yixuan?"

"Yang Yixuan seems to be a newcomer. Is this appropriate? So fast..."

"Are you kidding me? Yang Yixuan doesn't even know him. He used to be the son of a billionaire."

Yang Yixuan was scrolling through his phone when he arrived at Lin Xiao's house. He looked at the messages with satisfaction, believing that Lin Xiao would see them soon.

Lin Xiao was woken up by a phone call from his assistant. He was in so much pain on the hospital bed that he couldn't sit up and could only slowly prop himself up by the bedside.

"What's wrong with the assistant? I have one here. Just tell me what's wrong."

Lin Xiao's pale face, made by her getting up, was truly heartbreaking to see.

But Lin Xiao didn't care about any of that; he was sure something must have happened at the company for his assistant to call him.

"Oh dear, my boss, President Lin, something's happened to the company."

"What happened?"

"You're the one who's in trouble! Don't you know? You've crashed Weibo again!"

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. Weibo? He rarely used Weibo, and even when he did, he only used it casually.

The assistant requested that even if you are the boss, you should post more Weibo posts to show your warmth.

"That new guy, Yang Yixuan, posted photos of you and himself online, so you became a trending topic, Mr. Lin."

"Even though we have a good reputation, we can't do this. I'm afraid some unscrupulous person might..."

The assistant's concerns were not unfounded, because they are currently filming the movie "Down on His Luck" and have already issued a statement saying that Yang Yixuan will be playing the role.

With this latest gossip, he realized he couldn't escape his connection with Yang Yixuan.

"It's alright, I'll take care of this. Just make sure you handle the film's situation. Just put your mind to it."

Su Yiyang, who had been working very hard, stayed on set the whole time. He only relaxed for a while after Director Wang told him to take a break, and his handsome face was practically contorted with worry.

Su Yiyang's agent told him to check his phone immediately, saying that something was about to happen. He was being trampled on without even realizing it, and he was still a newcomer.

He teased his agent a bit, saying he was overreacting, but when he saw the contents, he realized it wasn't that. He was genuinely starting to panic; this person…

His Weibo updates are all about Yang Yixuan and Lin Xiao, showing them eating together like good brothers. The photos of them filming together were just a few days ago!

Su Yiyang gripped his phone tightly, staring intently at the person in the photo, his eyes darkening for a moment.

Seeing that his star didn't look too good, the agent, being perceptive, seized the opportunity and said...

"Yiyang, look at this new guy, he's really clueless. He's even trying to flatter the boss. Don't you think so?"

Su Yiyang resisted the urge to go find Lin Xiao, because his relationship with Lin Xiao was not yet very stable, and he did not have the right to question her rashly.

Just like whoever he likes, he has no right to it. On the contrary, Yang Yixuan might be more qualified. Wouldn't that just be shooting himself in the foot?

"Yang Yixuan is indeed quite capable, and he's climbed quite high. However, don't think that's enough. He's still far from it. How could I possibly let him have his way?"
