As soon as Yang Shushu finished speaking, she gasped again. Did this woman know that she was talking to him? If another woman was pinched by Xiao Muye's chin like this, she would have collapsed in his arms long ago, right?
Mu Shicang had long been accustomed to her attitude and didn't take it seriously. He loosened his grip on her chin and instead held her shoulders. He turned to look at everyone and smiled gently, "Can anyone explain to me what happened?"
Just now on the long street, he heard various versions of gossip. In fact, he didn't know what happened specifically. He only knew that someone seemed to say that they wanted to call the police and find a lawyer?
Everyone fell silent again. Anyone who was not stupid could tell that Xiao Muye knew this girl and it seemed that they had a very special relationship. Everyone now wished they could become air and disappear from here.
This also includes Shu Zeyi. Shu Zeyi never expected that Mu Shicang would come to find Yang Shushu in person. Based on his previous attitude, if Yang Shushu was not there, he would just turn around and leave.
That's why she asked Jiang Lingyue to bring the person over. Almost all the crew members from the director to the actors were from the Jiang family. They were paid to do the job, and no one dared to tell anyone about it. To be on the safe side, she did not tell Jiang Lingyue who Yang Shushu was, but only said that she was a woman she disliked. Originally, all this was planned well. She could have humiliated Yang Shushu, but after she went back, she might have been so depressed that she would commit suicide again and die directly.
But Mrs. Mu, who was said to be weak and incompetent by everyone, was completely different from the rumors. She was not weak and incompetent at all. The ferocity with which she swung the stick to hit her and Jiang Lingyue just now was like that of a female bandit.
But this was a small accident. Anyway, there were many people here, and people's words could turn black into white. She was about to step on someone and humiliate him, but she didn't expect Mu Shicang to show up.
Looking at Mu Shicang's smiling face, his cold eyes slowly swept across the entire crew, and finally landed on her face: "Zeyi, not long ago you said that your foot was injured and you couldn't walk. Is it okay now? In that case, can you explain it to me?"
Shu Zeyi struggled to adjust her breathing. She had been in the entertainment industry for many years, and coupled with her family background, she was not the kind of timid and inexperienced newbie.
In the play, her acting skills are often criticized, but life itself is a play, and she has a lot of plays.
She secretly glanced at the terrified Jiang Lingyue. Although Jiang Lingyue didn't understand what she meant, Shu Zeyi was the only one who could help her now, so she had to stand quietly aside and hinted to her crew not to speak for the time being.
Shu Zeyi turned around to face Mu Shicang again, her face had changed. Her temperament and appearance were dignified and gentle, and with her costume, she looked like a princess of the royal family.
"I'm not exactly sure about the specifics. Xiao Ling told me before that their crew was short of an extra. I happened to know a nice girl, so I wanted to come over and tell Xiao Ling about it. But when I got here, they said they'd already found the person. They said a girl had volunteered..."
Having said that, she glanced at Yang Shushu, as if she had no idea who she was, and then revealed a look of regret: "Unexpectedly, the two sides had a dispute over the issue of remuneration. This girl seems to have a bad temper and even started fighting. Look at that stick, she almost hit me and Jiang Lingyue."
Yang Shushu kept listening to her without interrupting. After she finished listening, she just curled the corners of her mouth.
Mu Shicang looked at her and smiled: "Do you have anything to say?"
Yang Shushu couldn't struggle out of his embrace. She was half-lying in his arms. The distance between them was quite close. She raised her eyebrows and looked provocative. "Do you believe me?"
Mu Shicang blinked and didn't speak immediately. Shu Zeyi silently raised the corners of his mouth.
She and Mu Shicang have known each other for many years, so she understands his character. He doesn't trust anyone and only believes what he hears and sees.
But he couldn't see now, he could only hear what everyone said.
Just as she was about to ask everyone to explain the situation again, Mu Shicang suddenly spoke up and said in a very affirmative tone: "I believe it, so go ahead."
Not only Shu Zeyi was stunned, but even Yang Shushu was speechless with her eyes wide open in shock: "Are you sure? If I said that they hired someone to trick me, asking me to do a favor and be a temporary actor, but after I showed up, I was inexplicably beaten up, would you believe it?"
Mu Shicang looked at her with gentle eyes and nodded. If Yang Shushu hadn't been too close and could see the coldness in the deepest part of his eyes, she would have thought he really believed in her.
"Then I said I fought back in self-defense, but was accused of malicious injury and was sued. Do you believe it?"
Mu Shicang laughed, and everyone became nervous. Even Yang Shushu was inexplicably affected by the laughter.
What are you laughing at? Do you believe it or not?
Zuo Jinheng was still standing in an inconspicuous position. He was very surprised by Mu Shicang's performance today. They had known each other since elementary school. Academically, they were evenly matched. In front of girls, their charms were also quite different. However, these were not enough to make them incompatible. The real reason was still that incident.
But no matter what, he still has a certain understanding of Mu Shicang, and he will not trust anyone easily.
However, he believed what the girl said and was a little curious. Who was that girl to Mu Shicang? He had never seen any woman dare to speak like that in front of him.
Everyone held their breath and waited for Mu Shicang's answer, as if his answer could directly determine the truth of the matter. Shu Zeyi even revealed a subtle smug smile at this time. She was almost 100% sure that no one would believe Mu Shicang.
Jiang Lingyue saw her expression and couldn't help but feel relieved. Zuo Jinheng frowned, thought for a moment, raised his foot, and prepared to show up and say something fair.
Mu Shicang was gazing deeply at Yang Shushu at this moment, his beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with indescribable affection. If, in the eyes of outsiders, this was silent doting, in Yang Shushu's eyes it was—
What the hell does this pervert want to do?
"Of course I believe you. If I don't trust my wife, who else can I trust?"
“…”
Suddenly, the scene fell into an eerie silence. Even Yang Shushu widened her eyes in astonishment. She didn't expect Mu Shicang to admit her identity in front of so many people under such circumstances. What did he want to do?
Apart from Yang Shushu, the most shocked people at the scene were Shu Zeyi, who was sure that Mu Shicang would not reveal Yang Shushu's identity under such circumstances, and Zuo Jinheng, who had never imagined that Yang Shushu was actually Mu Shicang's wife.
