Chapter 547: Exhausted Love

After everyone finished eating, Li Chenxu asked Lin Zhu to pay the bill. Just as everyone was about to say goodbye and go their separate ways, a newcomer who was recording the show with him suddenly handed Li Chenxu a business card.

She spoke cautiously, clearly afraid that Li Chenxu would refuse.

But can't others see what she's thinking?

Even if you can't stay by Li Chenxu's side for life, just getting a little benefit from him would make your life worthwhile.

However, most people wouldn't do this in front of the person in question.

The girl who handed out the business card, for reasons unknown, gave it to Li Chenxu right in front of Mu Xiaoyu.

Although those present didn't fully understand the complicated love-hate relationship between Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu, they were generally well aware of the intricate and tangled dynamic between them.

Giving Li Chenxu his business card now is practically suicide.

Just when everyone was waiting for Li Chenxu to refuse the girl's business card, he suddenly accepted it!

This scene caught everyone off guard, even Mu Xiaoyu was stunned in disbelief when she saw it.

Li Chenxu glanced at Mu Xiaoyu's expression out of the corner of his eye, and his hand holding the business card froze for a moment. However, it was only a blink of an eye before Li Chenxu recovered as usual. At the same time, he curled the corners of his lips and spoke to the girl in a very gentle voice: "I have accepted the business card, but this is a one-time offer."

The tone was gentle, as if it were the intimacy between lovers.

Mu Xiaoyu had never seen Li Chenxu treat any woman other than her in such a tone. He accepted that business card in front of so many people. Wasn't that slapping her in the face in public?

Instantly, Mu Xiaoyu's face turned deathly pale. She forced a smile, and when Li Chenxu looked over, she smiled slightly at him before turning and leaving the private room.

Seeing this, Gu Yeqi glared at Li Chenxu and then chased after him.

The instant she turned to leave, Li Chenxu clenched his fist. The business card in his hand was instantly crumpled beyond recognition.

The group exchanged awkward glances, all feeling somewhat embarrassed.

And judging from Li Chenxu's expression, he wasn't happy at all.

They were all people who had been in the entertainment industry for many years, and they were all shrewd and perceptive. Judging from this scene, it was clear that Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu had probably had a conflict before they arrived.

Fearing that if they stayed any longer, Li Chenxu's anger would affect them, the smarter ones quickly made an excuse to leave.

In less than a minute, only Li Chenxu and the girl who had just handed him his business card remained in the large private room.

Actually, the other party could also see that Li Chenxu was unhappy, but if she left now, she might really never have another chance.

So she mustered her courage and moved a little closer to Li Chenxu, trying to take his arm. But before she could get quite close, Li Chenxu pushed her away, and at the same time, he rang out in his icy voice: "Get out of here!"

One moment she was a gentle and kind person, and the next she turned into this terrifying person.

She was startled, fearing that Li Chenxu might do something to her at this moment, so she disregarded her own purpose and hurriedly stumbled away, leaving Li Chenxu alone in the large private room...

"Sister Xiaoyu! Sister Xiaoyu, slow down!"

At first, Mu Xiaoyu was walking, but later she was running. Her past with Li Chenxu kept flashing through her mind, scene after scene like a revolving lantern, repeatedly appearing in her mind. In the end, only the scene in the private room remained.

She suddenly remembered a story she had seen online a long time ago: when in love, people love passionately, but when they no longer love each other, they hurt each other deeply.

The liking is real, as are the dislikes and the indifference.

Li Chenxu's feelings for her were real before, and they are real now... too.

As she thought about it, Mu Xiaoyu could no longer control herself and burst into tears.

She kept telling herself not to care about these things. She and Li Chenxu had endured so much hardship together; they couldn't let their relationship break down now.

But how easy is it to control a person's heart?

Li Chenxu has really gone too far this time.

Gu Yeqi caught up at this moment and froze on the spot when he saw Mu Xiaoyu with tears streaming down her face.

He recalled the first time he met Mu Xiaoyu at the bar. Back then, Mu Xiaoyu was just like she was now, surrounded by sadness, but she didn't cry then.

Now, however, she burst into tears.

Gu Yeqi was immediately at a loss. He wanted to wipe away Mu Xiaoyu's tears, but he was afraid that his actions would damage the relationship between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu and make the atmosphere between them even more tense.

"Sister Xiaoyu, don't cry. If you're really sad, I'll go beat him up, okay? Don't cry, it really breaks my heart to see you cry."

Gu Yeqi is just a teenager who hasn't even turned twenty yet, but when he cares about someone, he expresses it so directly.

Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, but looked up at him with teary eyes.

Tell me, what's so good about me? Why would you like me?

Mu Xiaoyu's words stumped Gu Yeqi. He fell in love with Mu Xiaoyu at first sight, and perhaps her good looks played a part in it, but appearance alone was not enough to support his feelings for her that he still had.

To be honest, even she herself doesn't know why she likes it so much.

Gu Yeqi couldn't find an answer for a moment, and in the end he could only say, "Sister Xiaoyu, you are good in every way, really."

"Everything is fine? If that's the case, why would he have the heart to treat me like that... If he truly loved me, he wouldn't have hurt me like that. Perhaps... after everything we've been through, his feelings for me have been exhausted..."

As Mu Xiaoyu was speaking, her whole body suddenly swayed. She didn't even know what happened. The next second, everything went black and she fainted.

"Sister Xiaoyu!"

Gu Yeqi's heart leaped into his throat, and he quickly scooped the unconscious Mu Xiaoyu into his arms. Just then, Li Chenxu came out of the restaurant and saw Gu Yeqi with his back to him, carrying Mu Xiaoyu in his arms.

From his angle, he couldn't see Mu Xiaoyu clearly, but he could clearly see Gu Yeqi holding Mu Xiaoyu in his arms.
