Chapter 371 Stealing Hair for Authentication
"Young man Nianbai, you also have the surname Mu?"
While Song Chi was astonished, Cheng Shu was also very surprised.
Mu Nianbai smiled gently.
"Yes, we really are destined to meet!"
"Nianbai, then we're practically family now..."
Cheng Shu didn't think much of it and smiled as she continued the conversation.
Mu Nianbai responded very politely.
Only Song Chi, seeing the striking resemblance between Mu Nianbai and Mu Yin, was in a state of confusion.
She suspected once again that Mu Nianbai might be an illegitimate child of the Mu family!
And it's possible that Mu's father already knew of his existence!
Otherwise, why would Mu's father always look wary and disgusted whenever he saw him?
After all, who would treat someone like that the first time they meet them?
Recalling the incident at the party, Song Chi suddenly had a wild idea...
If Mu Nianbai is truly the illegitimate son of the Mu family, then everything that has happened recently could be reasonably suspected to be his doing.
The more she thought about it, the more her head ached and her heart ached.
She felt heartbroken and saddened that her mother-in-law had been kept in the dark.
She also felt sorry for her husband, fearing that he wouldn't be able to handle the blow!
If that's really the case...
The Mu family is in chaos!
Mu Nianbai was chatting with Cheng Shu when he saw Song Chi's uneasy expression through the rearview mirror. His eyes flickered slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
He guessed that the woman must have some suspicions!
He raised an eyebrow, changed the subject, and distracted her.
"Sister Cheng, didn't you say you'd introduce me to a girlfriend? I like tall, leggy beauties. If you know anyone suitable, you absolutely have to introduce them to me!"
Cheng Shu smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, definitely!"
Song Chi used this topic to probe further.
"Mr. Nianbai, since my mother wants to introduce you to a girlfriend, you need to tell her about your family situation, such as your job and who else lives in your family. Otherwise, how can she agree to a blind date with you?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shu slapped her forehead.
"How could I forget that? Nam-spa, tell me about it."
Song Chi looked at him with a calm expression, seemingly composed, but in reality, he was extremely nervous.
She knew he might not tell the truth, but what if she managed to find out something?
She was both nervous and expectant, clinging to a sliver of hope.
Mu Nianbai raised an eyebrow.
He is now a media mogul, and his identity has long been hidden. He is not worried at all that Mu Yin's people will find out his real information!
But since she doubted him, he just wanted to play with her.
"Ms. Song, as I mentioned before, I work as a journalist. My parents and younger brother all passed away unexpectedly..."
He later said things like that girls wouldn't suffer if they were with him.
Towards the end, Song Chi stopped listening attentively and began to ponder whether what he had said earlier was true or false.
He's a journalist, so he must be a reporter!
She had inquired about this matter beforehand!
And yet he had parents and a younger brother, both of whom were dead?
Was he telling the truth or lying?
Song Chi stared intently at Mu Nianbai through the rearview mirror with a questioning look in his eyes. Their gazes met, creating an awkward atmosphere...
Cheng Shu didn't think much of it and didn't notice the subtle atmosphere of tension!
When she heard him talk about his parents and his brother's unexpected death, she comforted him apologetically and promised to find him a satisfactory girlfriend.
Mu Nianbai smiled and said he was looking forward to it.
As the two chatted, the car pulled up in front of the Mu Group building!
"Sister Cheng, Miss Song, we've arrived!"
Mu Nianbai got out of the car first in a very 'gentlemanly' manner, and then opened the door for them.
Song Chi, who was sitting on the outside, could only awkwardly and politely thank him and then reluctantly got out of the car.
Cheng Shu then got out of the car and said, "Nianbai, thank you. If you have time another day, please come visit the Mu family!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Nianbai's eyes showed a momentary change in emotion.
It seemed like excitement, yet also like hatred!
Although it concealed itself extremely quickly, Song Chi still managed to catch it.
Song Chi tilted his head and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Mu Nianbai smiled and said, "Sister Cheng, I'm free anytime!"
"Alright, we're off!"
Cheng Shu waved to him and then led Song Chi inside.
However, Song Chi was lost in thought and absent-minded. As he passed Mu Nianbai, his eyes flashed, and he tripped her.
"ah……"
She instantly lost her balance.
"Daughter-in-law, watch out!"
"Miss Song, watch out!"
Two exclamations rang out, and Mu Nianbai reached out his long arm to support her, deliberately pulling her closer to his chest.
The scene seems somewhat ambiguous!
At that moment, someone in a corner was snapping photos in a hurry, capturing the scene!
Song Chi: "!!!"
She looked utterly astonished and instinctively tried to maintain a safe distance!
However, as if struck by a sudden thought, her eyes gleamed with a cunning glint.
"ah……"
She deliberately screamed, pretending to lose her balance.
She leaned towards Mu Nianbai, grabbing him with one hand and grabbing wildly with the other.
Nobody saw it...
Even Mu Nianbai didn't notice...
While she was frantically scratching, she ripped out several strands of his hair with follicles still attached!
The two were entangled together, and to outsiders, it looked as if they were embracing, creating an ambiguous scene.
The other party was Mrs. Mu, and everyone had even more gossipy expressions on their faces!
Passersby discussed the scene and took photos with their phones!
Cheng Shu was so frightened that she forgot what to do!
Just as the scene became chaotic!
"Baby! Watch out!"
Ever since Song Chi said she was coming to the company, President Mu abandoned his work, came to the front gate, and became a statue waiting for his wife!
Seeing her get out of the car from afar, he was immediately filled with joy.
He was about to go greet her when he saw Mu Nianbai!
Immediately, President Mu frowned.
Why aren't they together?
Before he could react, he saw Song Chi about to fall, and he fell right into Mu Nianbai's arms...
President Mu's jealousy instantly erupted!
As if he had gained superpowers, he flashed to Song Chi's side and steadied her.
He looked at her with a worried expression.
"Honey, are you alright?"
When Song Chi saw him, his eyes lit up.
"Uncle, thank goodness you came! I'm alright!"
Seeing that she was really alright, Mu Yin breathed a sigh of relief, but he pulled her to his side as if protecting a precious treasure.
"Honey, why are you with Nianbai?"
"We bumped into each other, and he kindly gave us a ride."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yin looked at him.
"Thanks for the narration!"
Mu Nianbai smiled faintly at him.
"Brother Mu, you're too kind."
After exchanging a few more words, Mu Nianbai returned to his car, which then sped away.
Cheng Shu finally snapped out of her shock, looking guilty and saying she hadn't protected her. Song Chi comforted her, saying she was fine and there was no need to worry. After a long time of reassurance, Cheng Shu felt a little lighter, but she still felt guilty and wanted to make it up to her.
It was getting late, and Mu Yin still had work to do, so he asked the driver to take Cheng Shu home, repeatedly reminding her to be careful on the road.
After seeing her leave safely, the couple held hands and walked towards the Mu Group.
Song Chi walked into the hall, carefully scanned his surroundings, and only spoke after confirming that there were no suspicious people around.
"Uncle, I almost fell just now. I think Mr. Nianbai tripped me..."
"He tripped you? Why!"
"have no idea!"
"Uncle, I just found out today that Mr. Nianbai's surname is also Mu..."
"What! What a coincidence!"
President Mu was surprised again!
For a moment, Mu Yin had a bad feeling!
“Honey, Dad has told me many times not to spend too much time with Nianbai. He always gives me a strange feeling. Although I don’t know why he’s tripping you up, let’s not spend time with him anymore, okay?”
"Okay!"
The two walked side by side into the president's office while talking.
Song Chi originally wanted to tell him that she had Mu Nianbai's hair hidden in her possession, and that she still suspected Mu Nianbai's identity and wanted to secretly take it for DNA testing!
However, if he really was, she was afraid that the older man would be sad and upset, so for a moment, she couldn't bear to tell him!
If it wasn't true, she was afraid of making a fool of herself and feeling embarrassed whenever she saw Mu Nianbai in the future.
So she decided to secretly take it for herself to verify!
On the other side, Mu Nianbai sat in the car. From this angle, he could see the Mu Group, and his eyes immediately lit up with ambition!
Ugh, my scalp hurts a little!
Mu Nianbai scratched his head, never expecting that a little girl would dare to pull his hair right in front of him.
"Old Xu, release all the news articles you prepared beforehand, along with the photos you just posted, and push them to the top of the trending topics... The headline should read... Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu are not as in love as the rumors suggest..."
