Chapter 445: Chapter 443: Meeting Him Was the Start of My Bad Luck_1

Pei Mojing’s brows furrowed instantly, "All suppressed?"

"Yeah... Don’t believe me? Go online right now and see if you can find anything..."

Pei Mojing didn’t immediately search online; since Neil said so, it must be true.

This little girl! She turned out to be quite capable; in just half a day, she managed to suppress all the news. That was not something an ordinary person could do!

"And then?" He asked playfully with a teasing arch in his eyebrows.

"Then I found a well-connected buddy and asked around, and they said it was an order from above. The most important thing is..." Neil was deliberately withholding the information.

"Cut the crap!" Pei Mojing’s frown deepened.

"Guess what kind of background your little girlfriend has?" Neil teased again.

"......" Pei Mojing could only respond in silence.

Neil chuckled, and with growing excitement added, "After you finished the press conference, all the media reporters went to dig up your little girlfriend’s identity, and boy, did they dig up some big news! An Zi said he had all the information ready to release, but then there was this absolute order from above not to hype up the story about you and your girlfriend. Hold on, he sent it to my computer. I’ll read it to you..."

Pei Mojing listened with a mixture of resignation and curiosity to Neil’s excited rambling. What exactly was the background of this girl, to the extent that it even got the worldly Neil so worked up?

"Hmm... Listen carefully now... ’The number one male god of the film industry, the great actor Pei, was photographed yesterday on an airplane intimately embracing a woman, and today at the press conference he boldly admitted that this woman is his official girlfriend! This has surely shattered the hearts of countless fans!’

Then, the editor went back and feverishly dug into the identity of that beautiful MM. What they uncovered was major news!

That woman wasn’t just some model, not just a pretty vase, she turned out to be a renowned designer in the architecture circle—Mu Zixuan!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Mojing’s eyes suddenly narrowed! Mu Zixuan!

But then Neil dropped another bombshell!

"Does the name Mu Zixuan sound familiar to everyone? That’s right! She’s the daughter of Mu Yingchen, the former CEO of the leading enterprise in Asia—the Mu Group, and the twin sister of the current CEO, Mu Zisu! Emma! No wonder even Pei, who once vowed never to have a girlfriend in the circle, couldn’t help himself this time! It turns out he snagged a treasure!"

Neil read all of this in one breath, gasped for air, then asked, "How about that? Isn’t it exciting?"

However, upon hearing the last sentence, Pei Mojing narrowed his eyes dangerously...

The Mu Group was very powerful, but if you said he had broken his promise and got a girlfriend because of the Mu Group, that just sounded irritating no matter how you heard it!

"Pei God? Pei God, are you there?" Neil had said so much but got no response, which made him call out.

"Do you think so too?" Pei Mojing suddenly spoke in a heavy tone.

Neil paused for a second and seriously replied, "How could I? Besides, you didn’t even know her name, did you?"

"Neil... I really had no idea she came from such a background..." Pei Mojing sighed. The Mu Group was an untouchable existence, something everyone knew...

"Mojing... You’re not from the same world as her. Anyway, you don’t have any real feelings for her at the moment, at most it’s just a passing interest. Let this be water under the bridge... You must have heard of the Mu Family. They don’t like the entertainment industry; otherwise, why would they have left such a big piece of the pie untouched all these years?"

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, both ends of the phone line were quiet, for a long time...

"I got it, let’s leave it at that..." Pei Mojing uttered faintly and hung up the phone.

Then he sank into the sofa all at once and closed his eyes wearily.

He found it strange that since she entered his house yesterday, she had kept asking which designer had designed his home. Little did he know... haha... Little did he know that every corner of the design was her own creation...

Was it coincidence or fate?

There was indeed quite a connection between him and her, but this...

He smiled bitterly, feeling that this connection was now rather distant...

All afternoon... News about the great actor Pei and his alleged little girlfriend evaporated from the world as if it had never existed, not a single piece of information, as if the media had silently agreed not to hype up this topic anymore and started to focus on other stars to divert everyone’s attention...

And everyone, including the stars in the circle, became curious—why had the explosive news that was so hot in the morning died down by the afternoon?

Everyone was smart; such a situation surely had an inside story. Since the parties involved said nothing, it was best for them to curb their curiosity...

That evening, while Mu Zisu went to the study, Xiaoxiao quietly slipped out of her room into Mu Zixuan’s bedroom.

"Xiaoxiao... What made you think of me today? What, aren’t you afraid my brother will find out we’ve known each other since we were kids?" Mu Zixuan teased her with an arched eyebrow.

Xiaoxiao flipped the covers back and climbed in too.

"I just wanted to ask you about that actor, what’s his name..."

"Pshaw! It’s all hype! I’m certainly not his girlfriend," Mu Zixuan promptly said.

"I took a glance at that photo, and it really looks quite intimate..." Xiaoxiao commented, nodding to herself.

Mu Zixuan instantly felt a headache--

"Xiaoxiao... Let me tell you, meeting him was the beginning of my bad luck!" Why did my period have to start just when I was sitting with him? If only he hadn’t been wearing white that day, even if a little got on black, you wouldn’t be able to tell, right? Oh, better not to talk about those annoying things.

Xiaoxiao looked at her curiously, "What bad luck?"

Mu Zixuan stared at her for three seconds, then took a deep breath and began to tell Xiaoxiao how she met Pei Mojing. When she got to the part about Pei Mojing buying her sanitary pads, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Xiaoxiao was also incredibly surprised; she had not expected such an odd story of how these two met...

"But his character seems pretty good too, a big guy going to buy you pads..." Xiaoxiao said with a hint of admiration.

"He was blackmailed by me into going. Don’t even mention how stingy that man is!" When Mu Zixuan thought about Pei Mojing asking her to wash his clothes, she couldn’t help but silently curse ’Stingy jerk!’ at the bottom of her heart!

"Shanshan... He even said you were his girlfriend, didn’t he?"

"Pshaw! That’s pure nonsense... I’m certainly not his girlfriend..." Mu Zixuan pouted and looked at Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao blinked at her twice, helplessly saying, "Alright... It looks like my rare attempt at gossiping didn’t turn up much..."

"Then let me gossip for a bit, how are things going between you and my brother?"
