Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Second Brother’s Romance 3

Mu Boyan went to work as usual, and upon reaching the parking garage, he found many people rushing up to him.

"May I ask what your relationship is with Lin Chu? Are you two cohabitating?"

"How long have you been dating?"

"Is there a happy event coming soon?"

"Does the Mu Family approve of this marriage?"

"Is Lin Chu using you as a cover because of the mistress rumor?"

...

Mu Boyan looked at the microphones in front of him, his cold eyes narrowing. He pushed away the microphones that were nearly rammed into his face.

"Why should I answer such idiotic questions?"

The crowd: "..."

He prepared to open the car door and get in, but the reporters, recovering from their shock, realized they couldn’t let him leave.

They surrounded the car.

"Mr. Mu, please explain. After all, many people want to know about your relationship."

"Yeah, is this some kind of scheme? Lin Chu became the mistress, worried about her public image collapsing, so, she found you to be her shield."

"Or are you just feeling guilty?"

Mu Boyan chuckled and then slammed the car door shut.

"First off, I’m Lin Chu’s neighbor. She fell last night and couldn’t move, so I took her to the hospital. Is there a problem with neighbors helping each other?"

"Second, I’m a doctor with many patients waiting for me. You’re wasting my time, which in turn endangers the lives of others. Do you want to have blood on your hands?"

"Lastly, besides gossip, there are many other newsworthy topics in this world. Are you all just too idle? If you’re lacking material, I can suggest something – go report on the children in impoverished mountainous areas. Let the traffic of your stories reach them. Maybe you could change the fate of those unfortunate kids."

Mu Boyan started the car and drove away.

The reporters conscientiously made way for him.

Once the car had left, they too dispersed, feeling disgruntled.

Meanwhile, Lin Chu was still sleeping soundly until Shan woke her up.

She was impatient, "Ah, it’s so noisy. Can’t you stop being annoying?"

Shan shoved her phone right in front of Lin Chu’s nose, "Just look, hurry, you’re trending again."

Lin Chu cracked her eyes open, then suddenly widened them, "What’s this? Am I causing trouble for Doctor Mu?"

Shan pondered, "Isn’t this Doctor Mu the second young master of the Mu family?"

Lin Chu scratched her head, "Now that you mention it, it seems like he is."

Shan slapped her on the shoulder, "Sister Chuchu, you’ve latched onto a massive support!"

"Don’t spout nonsense. He’s just my neighbor. He rescued me from my screams and cries last night."

Shan’s eyes twirled, "Didn’t you say anything else?"

"Like what?" Lin Chu asked.

"The little girl can only offer herself in return."

Lin Chu: "... Stop joking. Now I’ve caused him trouble."

At that moment, Lin Chu’s agent called.

"Sister Li, are you looking for me?"

"Chuchu, you’re savvy now, learning to divert the media’s attention. The whole direction has shifted. They’re not fixating on you and Chen Zhe anymore; now, everyone’s guessing about you and that guy. He’s the Mu family’s second son? When did you hook up?"

Lin Chu felt a headache coming on, "Sister Li, that never happened."

But Sister Li was overjoyed, "Oh, Chuchu, if you make it big, you have to take me with you!"

"Go where?" Lin Chu looked confused.

Sister Li suggested, "You’re dating the Mu family’s second young master, so you could move to Qianfan Film & TV. Do you know how hard it is to get into Qianfan? It’d be easy with just a word from you."

Lin Chu sighed deeply, "Sister Li, things aren’t the way you think. But no matter what I explain, none of you would believe me. I fractured my coccyx and need to rest for a while, so don’t line up any gigs for me."

"That intense? You broke your tailbone?"

Lin Chu rolled her eyes, "I fell while singing at home last night, and Doctor Mu saved me."

"Got it, and then you offered yourself to him. Oh my gosh, so romantic. The press conference today, I have my story. Alright, bye now."

Lin Chu only felt more headaches coming on. Wasn’t this causing more trouble for Doctor Mu?

Remembering she had noted down Mu Boyan’s number and that it was the same for WeChat, she added him on WeChat.

It took a good while before he accepted and replied: [?]

Lin Chu: [Doctor Mu, I’m so sorry to have caused you this trouble.]

Mu Boyan: [It’s alright, just ignore it. It’s just gossip, it will blow over in time.]

Lin Chu: [Thank you, may I treat you to dinner tonight?]

Mu Boyan: [No need to worry about it.]

Lin Chu took that as a polite rejection and didn’t reply further.

He was the distinguished second young master of the Mu family, also a renowned doctor, and she was just a small actress. It was normal for him not to want to get involved in troubles.

Lin Chu also had no delusions about him, so she took it in stride.

Shan asked, "Sister Chuchu, you and Doctor Mu..."

Lin Chu said, "In life, one must be clear about their own status and place and not covet things or people that don’t belong to them. There’s a huge gap between Doctor Mu and me; we’ll never cross paths in this lifetime, understand? Don’t talk to me about this again."

Shan stuck out her tongue, "Got it, Sister Chuchu. What do you want for lunch?"

"Lunch? My dear Shan, it’s 8:30 in the morning; at least help me make some breakfast!"

Shan shrugged, "I’m off to buy it right now. What do you want?"

"Chinese crullers and soy milk, that’s all."

Shan thought Lin Chu was genuinely unpretentious. She had some status now, but she never put on airs and was easy to get along with.

She grabbed her bag and hurried downstairs to buy food.

Lin Chu, hearing the door close, lay back down. She had gotten up too quickly and her tailbone began to throb faintly.

Her phone vibrated with a call from an unfamiliar number.

She answered, and a man’s voice came through.

"Chuchu, it’s Azhe. Why have you blocked all my contact information?"

Lin Chu hummed disdainfully, "Chen Zhe, why are you calling me? Do you think I’m not smeared enough?"

"No, Chuchu, I still love you."

"Are you nauseating? You’ve already met her parents, preparing to get engaged, and now you say you love me? Where’s your shame? Did you toss it into the Pacific Ocean?"

"Chuchu, I truly love you. The engagement with Xu Ying is just political. As you know, it’s only a political marriage."

When Lin Chu heard this, she was furious.

"Then can you not get engaged?"

"No, I can’t."

"What do you mean by this?"

Chen Zhe said, "Let’s just stay the way we were before. Even if I marry her, it’ll still be each to their own."

Lin Chu closed her eyes, "Let me tell you, Chen Zhe, I will never be the other woman in my life! Don’t call again!"

She hung up and turned off her phone.

She had only known Chen Zhe for two months, and now, she had become the infamous mistress everyone condemned.

What a stroke of bad luck!

Feeling filled with anger after the call, she thought she wouldn’t need to eat.
