Chapter 121

  Shu Mu walked into the room, as if he had just rushed in from the cold wind, his body still carrying a chill. He pushed open the door without closing it and walked directly to He Yuesong's side, casting him a glance before turning to look at Xing Dong.

  "With money?" He laughed as if he had heard a very funny joke, and then repeated the most ridiculous part of the joke, repeating these two words.

  Xing Dong's face was drenched in cold sweat, his vision blurred and his legs trembled beneath him. He deeply felt that compared to Shu Mu Bei, He Yue Song was nothing but a child's play.

  Just two words and he was overwhelmed.

  Xing Dong didn't dare to speak, he felt that whatever he said would be full of loopholes, so he stood stiffly in place like a wooden stick, waiting for Shu Mu's final verdict. But Shu Mu didn't take him seriously at all, just glanced at him and turned around to say to He Yuesong: "My play has been cancelled at the last minute."

  He Yuesong had a guilty conscience and dryly laughed: "That's great, today I can finally take it easy."

  Shu Mu responded with a sound and said: "I probably started listening from when you guys got to the point."

  He Yuesong's heart sank, and he unconsciously took a step back, his leg hitting the chair, causing him to lose balance and sit down heavily.

  "Having heard the whole story, I understand now." Shu Mu's tone was light and calm, without any emotion. "Song Song, didn't you promise me that you wouldn't interfere with this movie?"

  At this point, it's pointless to make excuses, so He Yuesong simply admitted: "I just took advantage of Luo Fei."

  "It's a joke." Shu Mu poured himself a cup of tea, "And you found a scapegoat to help you with your plan, but it didn't work out, and now you're making clothes for someone else to wear."

  He Yuesong was dissatisfied: "It's just that the plan wasn't thought out thoroughly, I can rethink it."

  "It's not that your plan wasn't thorough, it's just that the other party is more cunning than you," Shu Mu said. "Even if you rethink it a hundred times, it won't work. You know how to set up a scheme, but the other person won't fall for it."

  "Ashu, you!" He Yuesong was furious and slammed his fist on the table as he stood up.

  Shu Mu didn't say a word to him, pinched the tea cup with two fingers and drank it all in one gulp, moistened his throat, then walked around the table and said to Xing Dong: "From tomorrow on, you don't have to come anymore, and never let me see you again."

  "Shu......" Xing Dong's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he subconsciously spoke up.

  "Don't call my name." Shu Mu raised his hand and made a stopping gesture. "You're not worthy."

  He strode out of the door in big steps, as if staying in this office for another moment would make him feel extremely uncomfortable.

  He Yuesong stared blankly at the empty doorway, feeling as if a pair of hands were pressing against his chest, squeezing out all the air from within, making it hard for him to breathe.

  Xing Dong was still babbling on: "Second Master, look at what Shu Mu is saying, how can he..."

  "He told you not to come tomorrow, didn't you understand?" He Yuesong said angrily, "Get out, get out now! Get out quickly!"

  Xing Dong rolled over and fell down.

  He Yu Sheng stood still for a while, his head buzzing. He never thought he was wrong, and this time, he felt that he was kind-hearted, but Xing Dong messed things up. Luo Fei and Li Jin were not honest with him, did he do anything wrong by dealing with them? Even if he killed them, who could do anything to him? Why was Shu Mu so angry with him, not even giving him a straight look, saying a few words before turning around and leaving.

  Still open the door, in front of Xiang Dong this dog's face.

  He Yuesong's anger grew as he thought about it, and the air in his chest became more and more filled. Without thinking, he headed towards Shu Mu's office. Shu Mu's room was also on this floor, opposite him. He stormed over, and along the way, busy employees stopped to look at him without exception.

  Looked at it twice, thought it was boring, nobody watched it anymore.

  What else can we do — everyone is exchanging information with their eyes — if the giant baby doesn't make a scene for three days, this life cannot be lived, no way, they have money and power, just tolerate it.

  He Yuesong rushed into Shu Mu's office, pushing the door open with a loud bang. Inside, Shu Mu was wearing glasses and holding up a stack of documents to read.

  He looked at Shu Mu's appearance and suddenly all his anger was gone.

  In the afternoon sunlight, Shu Mu's whole body was covered with a golden edge. The metal frame glasses on his nose bridge covered up his originally aggressive eyes, making him look inexplicably bookish. He Yu Sheng stared at him without blinking, staring at him as he raised his head, slightly furrowing his brow, looking towards himself.

  He Yuexing suddenly felt particularly aggrieved in his heart. He didn't think that Shu Muyang had just embarrassed him, but rather he thought that Shu Muyang's ignoring him was a form of protection. Otherwise, if the two of them were to quarrel like this, wouldn't it be even more humiliating?

  Look, his eyes are gazing at me with a mixture of helplessness and doting, just like before.

  He Yuesong walked over and threw himself into Shu Muhuai's arms in an awkward posture.

  "Ah Shu, Ah Shu..." He kissed his neck, rubbing wildly.

  Shu Mu's fingers holding the pen stiffened for a moment.

  Then he gently stroked He Yuesong's back and said, "You don't have to worry about this anymore, let me handle it."

  He Yuesong responded with an "uh-huh".

  "After this matter of the company, you won't have to worry about it anymore. Anyway, Big Brother originally hoped that you would rest, so why not just let go and be done with it this time?" Shu Mu continued.

  He Yuesong, who should have been obedient, suddenly lifted her head.

  He looked at Shu Mu, his eyes which were weak and pitiful just a second ago now surged like a stormy sea.

  "Axu," he said slowly, "you shouldn't be unaware that big brother has always wanted to take my power."

  Shu Mu did not respond.

  "Ashu, you're in cahoots with big brother, aren't you?" He Yuesong wrapped her arms around his neck, her scorching breath spraying onto Shu Mu's face.

  His eyes were fierce, but his posture was full of pleading, like a small beast trying to put on a strong front, but ultimately wanting someone to pet and comfort him.

  "Shang Shang, you don't have the talent for this, why not withdraw early and spend your days leisurely with the money?" asked Shu Mu.

  He Yuesong pushed Shu Mu away with one hand and sneered: "Why? Just to set me up and take down Ruo Fei?"

  Shu Mu was pushed hard and his wheelchair slid backwards out of control. He stepped on the ground with both feet, steadied himself, and then looked up at He Yueshang.

  It has come to this, all the affectionate masks should be removed, and Shu Mo is too lazy to play any more games of coaxing little children with He Yuesong.

  "You're not new to this, He Yuesong." Shu Mu said coldly, "I've told you before, I can indulge your temper and let you have your fun, but I have my bottom line. Cross it and you'll die. If you want to put an Xiang Dong next to me to monitor me, I don't care; if you're having a fit and won't let me take on roles or sing songs, fine, I've been tired of being a star for a long time anyway, suit yourself. But you touched my bottom line, this is something I absolutely cannot tolerate."

  "Shu Mu, don't tell me this. Bottom line? I don't believe it, if Ke Yuan were here today, you'd also be clinging to some bottom line!" He Yuesheng shouted loudly.

  "Because he will never touch my bottom line."

  "It's because he touched you, and you would unconditionally forgive him, right!" He Yuesong sneered, "What's the use of that? Shu Mu, you made an exception for such a person, but he's already dead and can't come back. Even if you begged him to make you angry, he still can't come back."

  "Get out!" Shu Mu pointed at the door, and under his intense anger, his tone became unusually calm.

  He Yuesong's eyes stared at Shu Mu without blinking, his gaze venomous to the extreme, as if he wanted to cut a piece of flesh from Shu Mu's body. However, from start to finish, after saying those two words, Shu Mu didn't look at him again.

  He smiled gently.

  The laughter grew louder, filled with 120,000 parts of malice and resentment, filling the entire room. He Yuesong felt like he had become a joke, and he brazenly ridiculed himself, laughing so hard that his throat was about to crack.

  Then he turned around and walked towards the door step by step.

  "Ah Shu, it's okay, I'm not mad at you." The moment he opened the door, he turned back and gazed at his beloved smiling in the sunlight. "As long as you lean on He Shi for a day, you won't be able to leave me for a day. It's okay, we have a long lifetime ahead of us, we can take our time."
