Seeing her listless appearance, Meng Xunqian's heart immediately softened.
He moved his lips, but ultimately didn't utter the words of reproach.
Instead, she sighed helplessly and said in a gentle tone, "Your mother makes you go on blind dates and forces you to date and get married because she doesn't want you to continue to trap yourself in the shadows. She hopes you can come out of this situation, do you understand?"
Mu Xiaocheng wasn't stupid; of course she knew what her aunt was thinking.
But when it comes to marriage, and to love...
Ah, her parents are a living example, and there are those lingering shadows from her childhood.
How could she possibly walk out of there so easily?
Even she herself didn't believe it.
“I understand. So I…”
"Okay, I know." Meng Xunqian suddenly interrupted her, reached out his handsome hand, and patted her head.
He didn't want to reopen her wounds, and the gentle smile of the past returned to his lips, his eyes and brows revealing a refined and charming beauty.
"Our famous movie star, Shen Yiming, is back from abroad and has invited everyone to get together. Shall we go?"
"Of course we have to go! Shen Yingdi has so much influence; we have to give him the respect he deserves!"
A smile returned to Mu Xiaocheng's beautiful face.
Meng Xunqian chuckled and pinched her soft cheek, then bent down slightly and said gently, "Alright, get ready, I'll go get the car."
—
Yundu, Huanyu Grand Hotel.
When Mu Xiaocheng and Meng Xunqian arrived at the hotel's VIP room, Shen Yiming and several other friends had already arrived.
Shen Yiming wore a loose black fleece-lined sweatshirt today, looking very casual.
He has fair skin and somewhat feminine features; he looks like a heartthrob in the entertainment industry.
But this guy has good acting skills, and because of his good family background, he also has good resources. So he won a Best Actor award when he first debuted a couple of years ago.
Today, he is a very popular figure in the entertainment industry.
Shen Yiming is one year older than Mu Xiaocheng, and they grew up in the same compound.
The two have a very close relationship.
In Mu Xiaocheng's opinion, Shen Yiming is good in every way, except that he's a bit narcissistic.
A grown man carries a mirror everywhere he goes, taking it out to check his appearance every now and then. The number of selfies on his phone could be printed out and circle the Earth!
"Oh, little sweet orange!"
As soon as Shen Yiming saw Mu Xiaocheng, he got up and walked towards her.
Mu Xiaocheng stared at him, then pretended to be disgusted and waved her hand, saying, "Shen Yiming, why are you wearing so much perfume, you're a grown man?"
It suffocated her.
Shen Yingdi paused for a moment, then sniffed himself: "This perfume is Chanel's latest limited edition, I didn't spray much."
After saying that, he kept winking at Mu Xiaocheng.
Mu Xiaocheng ignored him, walked straight past him, and sat down on the other side.
Shen Yiming gave a haughty snort, but didn't stop her. He just stood there, took out a mirror from his pocket, and started looking at himself.
Meanwhile, upon seeing Mu Xiaocheng, Song Guiran immediately fawned over her, pulling out a chair and whispering, "Sister Xiaocheng, is the matter I asked you about done?"
"Huh?" Mu Xiaocheng looked at him, confused and bewildered.
"Holy crap! Mu Xiaocheng, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
Song Guiran's face changed instantly, and he even swore.
"Hmm?" Mu Xiaocheng narrowed her eyes dangerously: "You've gotten quite something, not only have you learned to swear, but you're also calling me by my full name?"
Song Guiran immediately wilted, her index finger tapping the table pitifully: "Didn't I ask you to help me a couple of days ago... get a classmate's autograph? It would be best if it was a special autograph or something?"
Mu Xiaocheng remembered; it seemed there really was such a thing.
but……
"If you want my special endorsement, it's very expensive."
