Chapter 494: I Really Miss You

Chapter 494: I Really Miss You

"How's the review process going?"

Upon receiving the news, Mu Xiaoyu immediately rushed to the director's house. Actually, this matter shouldn't have been Mu Xiaoyu's concern. She was only the author of the original work, and also the screenwriter of the film.

She sold her copyright, and all subsequent matters will be handled by the Li family, who will buy her copyright and invest in her.

But this was, after all, her hard work, and she didn't want all her previous efforts to be wasted because of something like this.

Mu Xiaoyu originally thought that Li Chenxu would no longer concern himself with the film, but when she went to the director's house, she immediately saw Li Chenxu sitting on the sofa. He had obviously been there for quite a while, as the teacup in front of him was more than half empty.

Even though he knew Mu Xiaoyu was there, he didn't even glance at her.

Everyone present knew about the past relationship between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu. Seeing them acting like complete strangers now, everyone felt awkward. Finally, the director coughed lightly and said dryly, "Miss Mu is here! Come and sit down, we're all discussing our strategy. Actually, you didn't have to come; it would have been too much trouble..."

Mu Xiaoyu withdrew her gaze from Li Chenxu, smiled slightly at the director upon hearing this, then walked over and sat down next to Li Chenxu without any ceremony: "How's the progress now?"

"We've mostly handled things with President Li. The person who had the heart attack wasn't in a high position, and they can't stand watching films like this anyway. It was their own carelessness. To be honest, we don't bear much responsibility. A little maneuvering at the top and bottom will suffice."

That's true. Since Li Chenxu is willing to take care of this matter, it's nothing to him. More importantly, Li Chenxu doesn't even need to make this trip.

So the question is, what is Li Chenxu doing here?

Mu Xiaoyu was a little confused and subconsciously turned her head to look at Li Chenxu beside her. The other party had a cold and serious look on his face, which made Mu Xiaoyu laugh. In the quiet living room, Mu Xiaoyu's laughter seemed particularly abrupt and immediately attracted the attention of everyone else.

"why are you laughing?"

Looking at Mu Xiaoyu's smiling face, Li Chenxu's lips unconsciously turned up slightly, a very slight movement that was almost imperceptible.

Mu Xiaoyu was a bit careless and didn't notice Li Chenxu's subtle expression. Upon hearing this, she imitated Li Chenxu's usual gesture, raising an eyebrow and saying directly, "Can't I laugh if I want to? Does Mr. Li still want to control me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu frowned slightly and was about to speak when Mu Xiaoyu interrupted him, saying, "You can manage me, but you usually have to become my husband to do so."

There were seven or eight other people from the film crew present. Mu Xiaoyu's voice wasn't quiet; in fact, it could be said that her words were almost taunting. The others' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Who dared to do something so audacious to Li Chenxu?

Even Li Chenxu himself probably didn't expect Mu Xiaoyu to do such a thing.

"Why are you not saying anything? Is Mr. Li embarrassed?"

Mu Xiaoyu is now completely shameless, just like Li Chenxu was in front of her before.

Li Chenxu couldn't help but laugh, but his expression wasn't one of genuine laughter; rather, it was more of a half-smile. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu, his thin lips moving slightly: "Miss Mu, I don't understand what you're saying. After all, this is a public place. I hope Miss Mu will be mindful of what she says and what she doesn't, so as not to cause misunderstandings for others."

"Misunderstand?"

Mu Xiaoyu repeated Li Chenxu's words, her face now beaming with smiles. Now she understood why Li Chenxu had always been so shameless and overjoyed in front of her.

Seeing the other person's helpless expression, the sense of satisfaction I felt was indescribable.

“Mr. Li, I’m not making this up. After all, we were husband and wife, and we did everything we were supposed to do. You are my ex-husband, and while others may not have the right, you, Mr. Li, certainly have the right to tell me what to do.”

This time, Li Chenxu simply didn't say anything. He withdrew his gaze from Mu Xiaoyu, his expression calm, as if he didn't care about Mu Xiaoyu at all.

The others present looked at each other, unsure whether to speak.

Although almost everyone present knew that Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu had divorced, it seemed that their relationship was over.

"Since we've pretty much finished discussing things, I'll be leaving now. Keep an eye on things with the director, and let me know if anything else comes up."

At this moment, Li Chenxu stood up and started to walk out while speaking.

Seeing this, the director hurriedly went to see Li Chenxu off, but before he could take two steps, Mu Xiaoyu gave him money and beat him to it.

"Well, director, I'll be going now since there's nothing else for me here. See you next time."

After saying that, she pulled Li Chenxu out.

Stepping outside, Li Chenxu abruptly pulled his hand away from Mu Xiaoyu's. He stood before her, his tall frame almost completely obscuring her petite figure. Maintaining this position, he looked down at her and said, word by word, "Mu Xiaoyu, what exactly do you want?"

"Don't you know what I want to do?"

Mu Xiaoyu wasn't angry; she still looked at Li Chenxu with a smiling expression.

“I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but I do know that we have nothing to do with each other anymore. I will pretend that what happened today never happened, and please don’t do anything like this again.”

After saying that, Li Chenxu turned to leave. However, he hadn't taken two steps when Mu Xiaoyu grabbed him.

At the same time, Mu Xiaoyu's voice came from behind: "Brother Chenxu, it's been so long, are you still angry with me?"

"I'm not angry. After all, we're over. Why would I be angry with you? Let go."

At this point, how could Mu Xiaoyu let go? Upon hearing Li Chenxu's words, she hugged him from behind, resting her head on his back, and said in a muffled voice, "I really know I was wrong. I've been regretting what I said all this time. Can you forgive me? I promise I won't do or say those things again. If you're still angry, I'll do anything you want, as long as you can forgive me. Brother Chenxu, I really, really miss you."
