Li Yun did not explain to others. She knew that explanation was often a cover-up, which would only make things worse.
So she had been waiting for Xu Mu all the time, but now, Xu Mu was right in front of her, and she didn't know what to say.
Xu Mu saw what was on Li Yun's mind and asked curiously, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
"I……"
Li Yun hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak out, "Xiao Mu, come with me."
Xu Mu followed Li Yun and came out of the hall.
"They've been saying lately that I...I'm your lover."
Li Yun first looked around and found that there was no one around before she spoke out, "I can feel that the way they look at me is not right."
Xu Mu frowned slightly, but it was normal to have similar rumors.
In any company, if a woman is suddenly promoted, there will definitely be such speculation.
Especially if the woman is pretty, she must have slept with her boss.
Human nature is just like this. If others have benefits but you don’t, it must be that others are cheating you.
"Would you like me to investigate and see who spread it?"
Xu Mu was a little unhappy. He hated this kind of false accusation the most.
If she is really his lover, then let this matter go.
The key is between me and Li Yun, it doesn’t matter.
"No, this kind of thing will only make things worse."
Li Yun shook her head slightly.
In fact, at her age, she is not afraid of such rumors at all.
She was afraid that her daughter, Zhao Yingying, would know the news.
If Zhao Yingying also thinks in this way, how can I face her in the future?
"It's okay, Auntie. It's just right for you to be my lover. That way, no one in the company will dare to mess with you."
Xu Mu looked at Li Yun's panicked expression and explained with a smile, "The lover I mentioned is in quotation marks."
Li Yun breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
If what Xu Mu said was true, she didn't know how to respond.
Reject? I owe them so much.
What do you mean? I feel bad about it.
"Let's go work."
Xu Mu waved his hand at Li Yun and said, "As long as you work hard, there will be fewer rumors."
[Favorability +10]
"You're right. If I'm just a pretty face, then that's pretty much it. But if I work harder than anyone else, no one will say anything."
Li Yun smiled and headed towards the company's lobby.
Xu Mu got back into the car, reclined the seat, and took a short rest.
About an hour later, Xu Mu's phone started vibrating.
He took it out and took a look, and found that it was a call from Meng Wanyue, so she answered it.
"Boss Xu, I'm outside the company."
Meng Wanyue's voice came over.
"Okay, I'll be there now."
Xu Mu still planned to take Meng Wanyue's car, as his own car was too conspicuous and inconvenient to move.
After he got off the car, he quickly walked out of the company and saw a Wuling Hongguang parked on the side of the road.
He walked over and sat in the passenger seat.
As soon as Meng Wanyue saw Xu Mu, black fonts appeared above her head.
[Favorability +10]
"Hey, Wanyue, what's wrong with you today? You seem to be in a good mood."
Xu Mu looked at Meng Wanyue.
Today she was wearing a black sportswear, and there was a faint smile on her pretty face.
"Boss Xu, I can now fully perform the Phantom Sword technique."
Meng Wanyue glanced at Xu Mu, her eyes full of gratitude. "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the result of the Marrow Cleansing Pill."
Xu Mu smiled and said, "It has something to do with it, but the most important thing is your ability."
[Favorability +5]
Meng Wanyue smiled. She knew in her heart that it was because of the marrow cleansing pill.
