Chapter 59 #Chao Xian's Secret Marriage# Explosion
Chao Xian felt somewhat helpless, but thinking that Mu Yunzhou probably hadn't slept well since he rushed back, he didn't say anything.
In addition, Chao Xian had been busy these past few days and hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time. With Mu Yunzhou by his side, Chao Xian felt relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
She slept until late at night, and when Chao Xian woke up, Mu Yunzhou was no longer beside her.
He yawned and looked outside.
The old house was very quiet, and even the servants were rarely seen.
It wasn't until Chao Xian came downstairs that he saw Rong Heng pacing anxiously downstairs, and Chao Xian asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Rong Heng had been told by Mu Yunzhou that he was not allowed to go upstairs and disturb Chao Xian.
Seeing Chao Xian come downstairs was like seeing a savior. He quickly said, "Mr. Chao, you're finally awake! Young Master Ronghuai, the young master, and Mr. Mu are kneeling in the ancestral hall!"
Rong Heng sounded anxious, took a deep breath, and wanted Chao Xian to come over quickly.
Chao Xian had already taken two steps forward when he realized he didn't know where the ancestral hall was.
Then he turned to Rong Heng and asked, "Where is the ancestral hall?"
Rong Heng originally wanted to say that he was not allowed to enter the ancestral hall at all, but thinking of the three people who were being punished by kneeling, he gritted his teeth and quickly said, "I can only take you to the vicinity of the ancestral hall. Even the servants in the house are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall."
Chao Xian nodded and followed Rong Heng through the attic, the front hall, the main hall, and further into the old house.
After walking for a while and passing through the corridor, Chao Xian finally saw the ancestral hall sitting in the bamboo forest not far away, with two old men standing outside the ancestral hall.
Upon seeing Chao Xian approach, he nodded to him in greeting.
These two elderly people had seen Chao Xian's photo and naturally recognized him.
The old man then turned his gaze to Rong Heng, his eyes sharp.
"Rong Heng, leave immediately."
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian softly explained to Rong Heng, "I don't know the way to the ancestral hall, so I asked him to help me find it."
The old man understood what he was saying and nodded. Rong Heng, who was standing next to him, quickly nodded to the two old men and then left.
They seemed to have great respect for the two elderly men.
"You're here to see Yunzhou, right? He's inside. Go quickly."
Chao Xian nodded to the two old men, and then hurriedly stepped into the ancestral hall.
The two elderly men were from the same generation as Mu Yunzhou's grandfather. However, they were not married and instead stayed in the ancestral hall, where they were responsible for offering incense and other daily tasks, which they enjoyed.
"I never thought that after a lifetime of fighting, his descendants would be the ones who are more successful." One of the elders was somewhat unconvinced.
The other person next to him coughed lightly, then chuckled: "You and your elder brother have been fighting all your lives, and now you still have no peace. You don't even have any descendants, but his descendants are the most promising."
The older man who spoke first was even more unconvinced: "I'm saying his descendants are more successful than him."
Chao Xian ignored the noise behind him and saw three people kneeling in the middle of the ancestral hall, with Mu's father and mother in the main seat.
The two of them looked very unwell.
Chao Xian didn't know what was going on, but everyone saw him as soon as they entered the ancestral hall.
Mother Mu quickly suppressed her anger and smiled gently at Chao Xian: "Chao Chao, what brings you here?"
"Mother, what are they doing...?"
Chao Xian asked softly, his gaze falling on the pitiful Mu Ziyan. Mu Yunzhou, kneeling upright in the middle, lowered his head and dared not speak.
Rong Huai, standing nearby, cried out that he was innocent!
“I really didn’t expect him to change his ticket without saying a word. I just said I’d come back soon to give my brother-in-law a little surprise… right?”
Rong Huai watched as the expressions of the people above grew increasingly cold. Although he felt he had done nothing wrong, his voice grew weaker and weaker.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian understood why these people were kneeling there.
It was indeed a pleasant surprise.
They were so surprised that they almost finished setting up the banquet.
Mu Ziyan knew he was in the wrong.
But they didn't ask him either.
Mu Ziyan was somewhat unconvinced.
But he didn't dare to speak, because he hadn't expected that Babo would be so worried today.
Mu Yunzhou dared not speak. If he hadn't lost his phone, this wouldn't have happened.
Being scolded by my wife and then forced to kneel as punishment, what bad luck!
Chao Xian glanced at them, then at Mu Ziyan: "At least everyone is alright."
Chao Xian spoke softly, thinking it best to let the three of them get up.
Father Mu waved his hand and said, "Chaochao, don't spoil them too much. They're completely lawless now. They dare to keep such a big thing from us."
Chao Xian glanced at Mu Yunzhou, then lowered his head. Mu Ziyan beside him looked aggrieved, though he was also resentful of Mu Yunzhou.
Who would have thought that Mu Yunzhou would lose his phone at this crucial moment?
While sitting up there, Mu's mother continued to talk about the things the three of them had kept from them.
Mu Yunzhou did not refute.
Mu Ziyan dared not refute.
Rong Huai, on the other hand, retorted in a lively and rambling manner.
But it was of no use; he was punished with a slap.
Chao Xian waited for Mu's mother to rest, then spoke softly on behalf of the three of them: "I need to discuss some things with Brother Mu, and besides, Brother Mu hasn't had a proper rest since he came back, so how about we leave it at that?"
Mr. Mu wanted to try to persuade her, but Mrs. Mu quickly pulled him back.
She's been kneeling for so long, and her own son doesn't care, but her grandson is still here.
"If anything really happens to Chaochao, take Yunzhou and Ziyan back first," Mother Mu said softly.
Chao Xian nodded, then glanced at Mu Yunzhou and Mu Ziyan, his previously softened expression instantly turning cold.
If it weren't for Mu's mother, I would have almost forgotten about this.
Mu Yunzhou stood up and silently glanced at Rong Huai, who was giving him advice.
Then he followed behind Chao Xian with Mu Ziyan.
Rong Huai was stunned as he watched them leave so decisively: "Wait, are you leaving me here? Don't leave me alone!"
Mother Mu reached out and slapped Rong Huai: "Look at the terrible idea you came up with!"
Rong Huai glanced at Chao Xian and the others who had already left, and then at Mu's mother and father. To save their lives, they had no choice but to reveal the information they had received.
"According to reliable sources, the Mu family may have some good news soon."
Mu Mu and Mu Fu: ?
The two men approached Rong Huai, their expressions suggesting that if Rong Huai couldn't explain himself, they would simply take action.
"According to feedback from Rong's hot pot restaurant today, Mu Yunzhou and Chao Xian are probably getting married. Mu Ziyan gave all the staff at the hot pot restaurant red envelopes and offered free meals until midnight."
Rong Huai spoke in a low voice.
Most of the information that comes from him is reliable.
only……
He didn't know that Mu Yunzhou and Chao Xian were in a contractual marriage, so he just thought that Chao Xian was finally going to publicly acknowledge Mu Yunzhou's status.
But Mu Mu and the others know.
Upon hearing this news, Mu's mother immediately took out her phone and sent a message to Mu Ziyan to inquire.
The answer was positive.
They couldn't care less about Rong Huai, who was kneeling beside them.
Rong Huai sat down on the ground next to him.
He rubbed his knees.
It really hurts!
Mu's mother and father have even started looking at whether they should renovate the attics in the old house.
After all, marriage is a big deal.
Besides, since Chaochao can't go public right now, at least they set up a table at home and invited some friends from the industry.
Chao Xian had no idea that his affair with Mu Yunzhou had been revealed.
After saying goodbye to the two elderly men outside the ancestral hall, I stayed there until the ancestral hall was out of sight.
Chao Xian then turned to Mu Ziyan and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
Mu Ziyan opened his mouth as if to speak.
Mu Yunzhou reached out and hugged Chao Xian's waist, looking aggrieved, "Wife...it hurts..."
Mu Ziyan: ?
You were feeling guilty in the ancestral hall just now, but you're not guilty now?
No, were they asking about you?
Mu Ziyan was speechless.
Chao Xian was speechless. He reached out and slapped Mu Yunzhou's hand away from his waist, then rolled his eyes at Mu Yunzhou.
"I hope it hurts to death. If you hadn't told Ziyan not to tell me, how could Ziyan not have told me?"
Mu Yunzhou felt utterly wronged upon hearing this.
It's a huge injustice.
Don't be fooled by Mu Ziyan's seemingly innocent appearance; in fact, Mu Ziyan, who is in the middle, is the least innocent of all.
Because it was Mu Ziyan who told Ba Bo not to tell him about keeping this a secret from everyone.
Here's a surprise.
Otherwise, Mu Ziyan wouldn't have been able to find a private room in advance!
The surprise turned into a shock, but Mu Ziyan dared not say it, nor did Mu Yunzhou.
Chao Xian rolled his eyes at Mu Yunzhou.
Then, he told Mu Ziyan to go back and rest early.
He then walked towards the small building.
Mu Yunzhou followed behind Chao Xian, his face still showing grievance, but he was saying words to coax Chao Xian.
Chao Xian didn't stop walking. He stepped onto the corridor, his eyes fixed straight ahead.
Mu Yunzhou realized that Chao Xian was really angry, so he quickly reached out and pulled Chao Xian back, lowering his eyes and saying, "I just wanted to give you a surprise, I didn't mean to scare you. I'm sorry, Chao Chao."
Mu Yunzhou apologized immediately, his face showing an expression that said, "I already know I was wrong."
Chao Xian knew that Mu Yunzhou wanted to give him a surprise, but when he heard about the riot at the airport, Chao Xian was only worried.
At that time, Chao Xian was afraid that Mu Yunzhou was dead.
They were also afraid that Mu Yunzhou would be captured.
Thankfully, he's alright.
Chao Xian comforted himself in his heart: "Then you mustn't do that again next time."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunzhou quickly nodded, his eyes filled with smiles, understanding that Chao Xian was no longer pursuing the matter.
"Chao Chao." Mu Yunzhou hugged Chao Xian and sighed softly in comfort.
As night fell, snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky. Mu Yunzhou was extremely excited when he saw them: "Chao Chao, it's the first snow of the year!"
Chao Xian released Mu Yunzhou and turned to look at the sky.
Snowflakes landed in his palm, and the warmth of his palm melted them, filling Chao Xian with a pleasant surprise.
This is the first snowfall of the year.
“When the first snow fell last year, I understood my own feelings. This year, with the first snow, my feelings have finally been reciprocated,” Mu Yunzhou said softly.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian slightly raised his head.
With a smile in her voice, she asked, "Isn't President Mu afraid that he's still in his internship period?"
Mu Yunzhou raised his chin slightly with a hint of smugness: "It's okay, a boyfriend during the internship is still a boyfriend."
Chao Xian sensed the smugness in Mu Yunzhou's voice, and his eyes were filled with helplessness towards the person in front of him.
"By the way, how is Luo Zichang?" Mu Yunzhou asked softly.
But all he saw was Chao Xian shaking his head: "There's still no news from the hospital; Luo Zichang is still unconscious."
Chao Xian told the hospital to call him as soon as Luo Zichang woke up, but Luo Zichang is still in a coma.
This year's New Year was not very lively, with fewer people.
The old lady, and the relatives from the collateral branches who had previously argued about dividing the family property.
When Fan Yun discovered that Mu Yunzhou had returned to the country safely, she was somewhat incredulous. Even when she went to tell Fan Yu, Fan Yu, who was still waiting for an opportunity, understood that his chance was completely gone.
On Mu Ziyan's birthday, Mu Yunzhou summoned the Mu family's lawyer and changed his will in front of everyone.
The previous will stipulated that all of Mu Ziyan would inherit the company, but now the company shares are divided 30/70, with Mu Ziyan holding 70%, while the other cash, treasures, and real estate under Mu Yunzhou's control go to Chao Xian.
Mu's father even took out the share transfer agreement that he had prepared in advance and asked Chao Xian to sign it on the spot.
Chao Xian was somewhat flattered, but this time he did not refuse and accepted it.
After that, it was Mu Ziyan's birthday party.
Chao Xian and Mu Yunzhou left Mu Ziyan's birthday banquet early.
Standing on the observation deck, Chao Xian watched the fireworks outside. The scarf around her neck was knitted by Mu Yunzhou, who learned how to do it by watching a video on his phone.
The lines were crooked and twisted, but Chao Xian liked them very much.
"Why don't the Ji family and the Fan family want you to come back?"
Chao Xian suddenly thought of this problem. The Mu family still had its foundation, but the Mu family in the original story collapsed very quickly. Chao Xian could vaguely guess that it was related to Mu Yunzhou's death.
But there are still some things I'm not entirely clear about.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunzhou said softly:
"Because in their view, if I die, no one in the Mu family will take over the Mu family business. Although the collateral branches of the Mu family covet the Mu family business, they are quite useless. If the Mu family business is handed over to them, it will only go downhill."
When Mu Yunzhou talked about this matter, he thought of how, after he left, those collateral branches threatened Chao Xian about splitting up the family.
Thinking of this, Mu Yunzhou felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He felt sorry for Chao Xian. Even though Chao Xian had nothing to do with the Mu family's affairs at that time, he still helped the Mu family.
"Mu Ziyan can't support the Mu family for the time being. If I don't come back, the Mu family will definitely fall into internal strife. As long as we control the weaknesses of those collateral branches, the Mu family will be like a dam destroyed by an ant nest. But if I don't die, the Mu family will be fine."
Mu Yunzhou is the sole center of the Mu family. Mu Ziyan has been cultivated and is the successor of the Mu Group, so he can naturally become the center of the Mu family.
But right now, Mu Ziyan knows nothing.
Chao Xian seemed to understand why, in the original text, once Mu Yunzhou died, Jian Huai was completely without an opponent.
The Mu family clearly has a strong foundation, but without Mu Yunzhou, not only will those collateral branches be troublesome, but internal strife will also occur within the company.
The person in charge of Mu Yunzhou's estate and shares is only about ten years old and has no chance of becoming the person in charge of the company.
Even Mu Ziyan in the book lives in his own world.
They simply don't care about the fate of the Mu Group.
If at this time, the Fan family, Ji family, and other families join forces to attack.
That would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the Mu family, who do not have Mu Yunzhou.
Chao Xian took a deep breath.
But thankfully, he did change the ending of that book.
It changed everyone's fate.
The fireworks were beautiful. Chao Xian looked at the city not far away, its lights twinkling. Now he had a place that was also his home.
From the basement before entering the book, to the book itself.
Chao Xian suddenly felt that things weren't so bad as they were.
At least he has friends, family, and a lover.
If his former agent knew, he would probably wish him well.
after all……
They have all suffered too much.
After the New Year, Chao Xian had more work, so the three of them moved back to the Mu family home in City A.
At the same time, news arrived that Luo Zichang had finally woken up.
Chao Xian originally wanted to visit Luo Zichang, but Mu Yunzhou was unwilling, so the task of visiting Luo Zichang fell to Mu Yunzhou.
Luo Zichang was discharged from the hospital soon after his discharge. He came to see Chao Xian after his discharge, but only said one sentence of blessing.
Mu Yunzhou originally wanted to follow Chao Xian to the film set every day, but he couldn't leave because of things at the company, so he could only pick up and drop off his wife after get off work in the evening.
He looks pitiful every time he takes his wife to work.
Mu Yunzhou also needs to take some time to finalize the decoration of the new villa and the style of the furniture inside.
Fortunately, Mu Ziyan's villa was right next to theirs, so Mu Ziyan would run to the new house every day after school, determined to make every part of the villa satisfactory to Chao Xian.
After Su Ge officially started work, he saw that Chao Xian was still a little excited, so he talked to Chao Xian about how many resources had come to contact him during Chao Xian's vacation.
Su Ge and his assistant were a little unaccustomed to not seeing Mu Yunzhou.
Chao Xian picked out two resources from the ones Su Ge had compiled and looked at them, then asked Su Ge softly, "When do you think would be a good time for me to make an official announcement?"
Su Ge was stunned when he heard this and turned his gaze to Chao Xian. Chao Xian seemed to be saying it casually, but Su Ge's heart jumped: This is the peak of his career!
But Suger can't say that.
He could only manage a wry smile and say, "Anytime is fine; I already have a public relations plan."
Chao Xian closed the documents in his hand and frowned: "I think we should wait until we win the Best Actor award, right?"
Suger's brows relaxed, and he nodded quickly.
Hahaha! Just as I expected! His artists are so ambitious!
But Suger's smile quickly faded.
Because Chao Xian turned down almost all other opportunities and focused all his energy on the film, he was even invited to collaborate with Director Zheng for the second time.
This time, however, it's not a supporting male character, but the real male lead.
The last movie was very well received, and Director Zheng also recognized Chao Xian's acting skills.
Director Zheng was aiming for awards with this film.
In six months, they traveled from grasslands to mountains, and from mountains to deserts.
Chao Xian followed the film crew to countless places. The crew was very strict about checking people's entry and exit, and even Mu Yunzhou could only enter for half a day during his vacation.
You simply can't stay there for too long.
During this time, Director Zheng also learned about the relationship between Mu Yunzhou and Chao Xian.
Yet he remained impartial and incorruptible.
Chao Xian was well-liked on set, and despite her good looks, she still endured hardship while filming.
He does almost every scene himself and never uses a stunt double.
Even the veteran actors who acted opposite Chao Xian were very satisfied with him.
He even considered taking on apprentices.
However, these are just thoughts. After all, Chao Xian is very young, and his future achievements will definitely not be inferior to his.
This was the most difficult film crew Chao Xian had ever worked on. When Chao Xian returned to City A, Mu Ziyan looked at him and felt that Chao Xian had lost too much weight.
Mu Ziyan not only has to study at school, but also participate in all sorts of competitions.
So many times Mu Yunzhou was able to go see Chao Xian, but he could only stay in City A and video chat with Chao Xian.
But what can a small phone reveal? Meeting him face-to-face, I realized that Babo has lost so much weight!
Mu Yunzhou felt sorry for Chao Xian and had the housekeeper make soup for her for several days in a row.
When I stepped on the scale in the morning, I found I had gained several pounds.
Chao Xian was so angry that he almost made Mu Yunzhou, who had finally managed to get back to the master bedroom, roll back to his previous study to sleep.
After filming wrapped, Chao Xian began to rest, occasionally taking on some endorsements or similar jobs.
Suger and his assistant were happy to have an easy time.
After finishing filming in Chaoxian, he would take a break and then start accepting endorsement deals.
Other celebrities and fans in the entertainment industry were completely stunned by Chao Xian, after all, the frequency with which Chao Xian joined film crews was just too high.
He's a true model worker!
Even with such a high-intensity job, Chao Xian's acting skills are by no means lacking. On camera, Chao Xian's acting skills are always on point, and his appearance is still striking.
Director Zheng's film was released the following year, and upon its release, it received rave reviews across the internet.
The topic of conversation among the people was mostly the male protagonist, Chao Xian.
Su Ge was also somewhat surprised. In just three years, Chao Xian had gone from an unknown person to a rising star in the entertainment industry, and then to a hot candidate for Best Actor.
Chao Xian doesn't have any scandals in the industry.
If an artist like this didn't have a husband, she would be even more perfect.
Asahi's fans are even happier to have such an idol.
After all, even though her brother hadn't been seen for a long time, he didn't rest and went straight to filming!
Whose brother is so dedicated!
It turns out it belongs to us!
At the awards ceremony, Chao Xian entered with the crew and was adored by photographers, with almost everyone pointing their lenses at him immediately.
Her stunning beauty showed no signs of being honed on set; on the contrary, she looked even more captivating under the camera's lens.
The photographer couldn't help but be drawn to Chao Xian in the lens.
Chao Xian maintained a smile throughout the flashing lights of fans and photographers until she entered the venue.
Upon entering the inner area, Chao Xian immediately spotted Mu Yunzhou.
Director Zheng, who was standing next to Mu Yunzhou, noticed that Mu Yunzhou was staring at Chao Xian without moving and teased, "Chao Chao, your husband never attends events like this."
At least in the past, Mu Yunzhou would never attend such events.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian chuckled: "Director Zheng, today you shouldn't be focusing on Brother Mu, shouldn't you be paying attention to the stage?"
Upon hearing this, the other actors nodded in agreement with Chao Xian.
Chao Xian nodded slightly to Mu Yunzhou, and only felt relieved when he saw Mu Yunzhou turn to look at the stage.
I don't want to announce it before I've even won the Best Actor award.
The next second, his phone vibrated. He glanced at it to make sure there were no cameras before taking out his phone to check the message Mu Yunzhou had sent.
Mu Yunzhou: Waiting for my wife to become a movie star!
Mu Yunzhou even sent an excited emoji.
Just by looking at the message, Chao Xian could imagine that Mu Yunzhou had sent it to him with a serious expression.
A soft laugh.
Reply with a kiss emoji.
However, when the camera panned across his side, Chao Xian's calm expression returned.
The red carpet exit was closed, and the host on stage spoke official jargon.
Chao Xian and the others remained expressionless as they watched the works pass by and the award winners take the stage.
Soon, Chao Xian heard the name of their movie, and at the same time, his own name.
Although Chao Xian had already won such an award before transmigrating into the book, hearing his nomination again still gave him a sense of excitement, like opening a blind box.
Chao Xian watched her own performance from below the stage, along with clips of other selected contestants.
When Chao Xian saw clips of other people's performances, he thought they were all excellent.
The host spoke in a relaxed tone, gradually unveiling the mystery:
"Let's congratulate this year's Best Actor winner—Asahiro!"
Chao Xian stood up, a smile on his face, nodded to the people around him, and then hugged and shook hands with Zheng Nan next to him.
Only then did he go on stage.
Once on stage, Chao Xian's conversation with the host was neither humble nor arrogant, showing no signs of being a newcomer.
Su Ge had prepared his acceptance speech in advance, as he had great confidence in Chao Xian, since Chao Xian's work had been a complete hit this year.
Chao Xian stood under the lights, holding the trophy.
He looked down at Mu Yunzhou, who was looking at him.
After thanking the production team and the fans.
Chao Xian also uttered his last words:
"Finally, I would like to thank my husband for always supporting my dreams."
In a different world, this is the second time that Chao Xian has won the Best Actor award.
