Chapter 146: Indulgence and Jealousy
Mu Sheng slept until she woke up naturally as usual. Li Hanchen happened to come out of his room when she left hers.
“Morning.” Mu Sheng greeted Li Hanchen naturally.
Li Hanchen’s deep eyes landed on Mu Sheng’s face. “Good morning.”
Habits could only be cultivated over time. Mu Sheng had already gotten accustomed to Li Hanchen’s actions.
Mu Sheng stopped in front of the table and waited for a second without any reminder from Li Hanchen. She waited for him to pull out her chair before she took a seat.
She ate the egg Li Hanchen was feeding her as she ate porridge. By the time she was done eating, a glass of milk infused with strawberry candy was already placed in front of her.
Auntie Lin almost blushed awkwardly when she observed their interaction.
Even though Li Hanchen didn’t seem like the caring sort, he was definitely a natural when it came to Mu Sheng. She might be a 50 to 60-year-old woman, but even she felt shy watching them.
She watched as Li Hanchen used his handkerchief to wipe the corner of Mu Sheng’s mouth.
Mu Sheng had her head lowered, so she failed to detect the loving smile on Li Hanchen’s face. However, Auntie Lin suddenly caught it. She quickly took the empty bowl and brought it to the kitchen.
Tsk tsk tsk. Auntie Lin felt embarrassed watching them. Li Hanchen could get so sticky with the woman he loved. The moment Mu Sheng finally got it, she could not imagine how much Li Hanchen would indulge Mu Sheng.
After breakfast, Mu Sheng curled up on the couch to read as Li Hanchen sat beside her and read the papers.
Mu Sheng’s phone suddenly vibrated.
Mu Sheng was a little far from it, so she asked Li Hanchen, “Can you pass it to me? Thanks.”
Li Hanchen put down his paper and reached his hand out for her phone, but he narrowed his eyes promptly.
A name was appearing on the screen.
It was none other than Qiao Siyu.
Li Hanchen’s hand froze briefly before he reverted to normal and gave Mu Sheng the phone. He sat back on the couch and continued to read the papers.
Mu Sheng pressed to answer it. “Hello. Yes, I am free tomorrow. Sure.”
Mu Sheng hung up the phone after a few brief words and went upstairs.
“Are you heading out?” asked Li Hanchen from behind her completely normally.
“Uh huh. My colleague wants to meet,” replied Mu Sheng.
Mu Sheng had not paid any attention to social media for the past two days, so she was oblivious that photos of her dressed in costume as Gu Li got leaked online and had become a hot topic on social media.
Jiang Tian posted something through the talent agency’s official social media account to help prove she was not ugly.
Inside the video clip, Mu Sheng was wearing a long dress as she took a spin on the bike at the filming location. Her skirt fluttered in the air and her hair was slightly disheveled from the wind. She looked absolutely proud and confident. A lot of the novel fans were blown away by the clip.
Jiang Tian struck the iron while it was hot and posted other pictures of Mu Sheng as well. Although they had to blur out her garments so as not to leak any information about the television drama while it was still filming, her penetrating eyes promptly became the talk of the town.
The investors reached out to the director when they caught on to the major public interest Mu Sheng was causing and asked for Mu Sheng to have more parts.
Qiao Siyu was calling to discuss her additional parts. He wanted to discuss how they could add the parts creatively without tarnishing the essence of the novel.
Mu Sheng chatted with Qiao Siyu as she walked upstairs. They talked about the plot briefly before arranging to meet up.
By now, the newspaper in Li Hanchen’s hands was completely crumpled.
