If all he wanted was resources, the Mu family was large and wealthy and had no shortage of them. But his repeated changes of heart drove Mu Lengshan crazy!
Shen Shi used the tactic of retreating to advance quite often in the past, and Mu Lengshan felt that he was being coy and wanted her to try again.
"The second male lead role is already the best he could get, so let's call it quits while we're ahead," Mu Lengshan said wearily, rubbing her temples.
Realizing she had misunderstood him, Shen quickly explained, "That's not what I meant."
"Then what do you want to do?" Mu Lengshan asked with a disbelieving look.
"I want to continue singing; singing is my career," Shen Shi replied decisively.
When Shen Shi said that singing was his career, Mu Lengshan thought he was just joking.
The boy in the white shirt playing the guitar entered her heart. Countless times when she was confused, as long as she played his music, she could always find a moment of peace.
The song of Shen Shi is Mu Lengshan's utopia.
But after getting to know him, she discovered that the boy didn't love music; it was just a job for him.
In pursuit of his dream of making movies, he never picked up a microphone.
Time is a terrible thing; it almost made Mu Lengshan forget the handsome boy who sang softly.
But now, when Shen Shi says that music is a dream, Mu Lengshan's long-dormant heart is rekindled.
"Are you sure?" she asked, her voice trembling.
Shen Shi blurted out, "Of course!"
After that call, Mu Lengshan didn't contact Chen Shi for several days.
She had always been the one to take the initiative in their relationship, and Shen Shi only needed to obey. Mu Lengshan's sudden coldness made him very uncomfortable.
Shen Shi would send her messages every day, but Mu Lengshan's replies were always perfunctory.
[I'm in the recording studio, what are you doing?]
[mua~]
After typing that sentence, Chen Shi casually added a cute emoji.
Then, full of anticipation, I wait for their reply.
After a while, Mu Lengshan's message came.
[Meeting.]
With just two simple words, even through the screen, Shen Shi could feel the other person's cold expression.
Even when you're feeling down, your passion won't be extinguished. The colder a person is, the more they need the warmth of a little sun.
Did I bother you?
[Are you busy with work? Are you tired?]
[I ordered you milk tea and a small cake. Remember to have your assistant bring them over.]
[It's almost dinnertime. Your stomach isn't good, so don't get too busy and forget to eat!]
After sending four messages to the chat interface, Chen Shi continued typing.
In the conference room, Mu Lengshan listened to her subordinates' reports while also glancing at messages.
Faced with the incessant chatter of Chen Shi, Mu Lengshan smiled slightly.
She was born with rosy lips and white teeth, but because of her status as CEO Mu Leng, in order to keep her subordinates in check, Mu Lengshan always had a cold face and dressed in a mature style.
Her smile surprised everyone who noticed her; no one expected Mu Leng to be so good-looking!
[knew. ]
[You also remember to eat.]
Mu Lengshan is a typical example of someone who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She would give her heart to anyone who cares about her.
Moreover, this person is Shen Shi.
[Ugh! Don't even mention it. These past two days at the recording studio, I've been eating nothing but boxed lunches. The company's been stingy; they won't even let me order a meat dish!]
I've starved myself so much, I don't look good anymore~
[GIF of feeling wronged]
A woman's pity is an emotional catalyst. In order to gain Mu Lengshan's sympathy, Shen Shi deliberately played the victim.
[how so? ]
[Your company has gone too far!]
As expected, Mu Lengshan was very angry.
If they don't even give us meat to eat, how can they run an entertainment company? Is Coolfan Culture so poor that it's about to go bankrupt?
While what Shen Shi said was true, the reason he wasn't allowed to eat meat was that he hadn't been controlling his weight recently, resulting in him gaining two pounds.
Body management is a must for idols. A pound or two may not be noticeable to the naked eye, but once they appear on camera, they will look much rounder.
So the company ordered him to regain his weight.
"Being an idol is no human being!" Shen Shi, forced to control her diet, couldn't help but roar.
Some kind people live a life of simply boiling vegetables and adding an egg (without the yolk).
The tall young man, standing at 1.8 meters, was so hungry he wanted to gnaw on the bed frame!
Hearing Mu Lengshan say that the company was going too far, Shen Shi felt like he had found a kindred spirit. He typed back quickly: [I think so too.]
[I'm so pathetic as an idol, Mr. Mu, please have mercy and rescue me!]
[Crying GIF]
Shen Shi's dramatic performance made Mu Lengshan's smile grow even brighter: [How to rescue him?]
[Haven't I already been keeping you as a mistress?]
She was in a very good mood when she teased Chen Shi.
Upon seeing the message, Shen Shi raised an eyebrow in surprise. "I like this directness."
Mu Lengshan, who is usually indifferent, rarely takes a joke, so Chen Shi certainly can't spoil the fun.
He played along, accusingly saying, "But President Mu got it for free, he didn't pay!"
The words "freebie" made Mu Lengshan's cheeks turn bright red.
But she has always been competitive, and she can never lose, even in a verbal battle.
To save face, Mu Lengshan thought for a moment before typing a line of text.
After clicking send, I turned off my phone and focused on listening to my subordinates' work reports.
[That's because your skills aren't good enough!]
Shen Shi was so angry about this message that he saw stars.
Who says I can't do it?! A man can't say he can't!!
With a heart eager to prove himself, Shen Shi went to Mu Lengshan's house that very night.
He rang the doorbell twice, but no one answered. Chen Shi then took out his key and opened Mu Lengshan's door.
[I'm at your house.]
After being notified via WeChat, Chen Shi opened the refrigerator.
When he saw that there was nothing inside except wine, his brows furrowed tightly.
Complaining about stomach pain every day, if you keep ruining it like this, it's no wonder your stomach will never get better!
With no milk in the house, there were naturally no ingredients, so Chen Shi went to the supermarket fully equipped.
Being a big star makes even going out for a walk a luxury that Shen Shi can't even imagine.
He felt very uncomfortable being fully armed with a mask, hat, and sunglasses every time.
But in order not to cause trouble for others, Chen had no other choice.
Even so, he was still worried that someone might recognize him.
The news that "the president of Mu Corporation is dating a popular idol" will deal a fatal blow to Shen Shi's career.
Mu Lengshan lives in an upscale residential community where all the neighbors are either rich or powerful, and the security level is ridiculously high, making it impossible for outsiders to get in.
Almost no one paid attention to him on the street, but the cashier glanced at him a couple more times when he paid.
Shen Shi thought it was because he was dressed too conservatively.
Wearing a black mask, a black hat, and sunglasses, not a single hair was visible. Fully armed like that, if Chen Shi went to the bank, he definitely wouldn't be able to even get in the door.
After Shen Shi finished grocery shopping and returned home, Mu Lengshan still hadn't come back.
There were no messages when I turned on my phone.
This is normal, though. For workaholic Mu Lengshan, if something isn't finished, she has to keep working on it; there's no such thing as soon as or late.
Shen Shi's family runs a restaurant, and although it's not as good as the mother and daughter's, their cooking skills are still quite good.
