Chapter 69.3




Chapter 69.3 - Mu Cheng got into a car accident 2
“I know, I think you’re quite pretty too.”
Tang Xiao’s heart felt slightly better.
But very quickly, the second part of her mother’s words followed. “I have to keep comforting you. Furthermore, China has so many people, it’d be even harder if a few people didn’t like you, and idolised you. People, ah, they sometimes have to say pleasant things.”
“...” She wanted to hang up.
“Hahaha, I’m joking.” Her mother laughed happily, “But are the rumours between him and Su Bai real?”
“Mom …” Tang Xiao felt a bit helpless, “Don’t listen to my brother, half of those rumours were made up by him.”
“So that’s to say you and Mu Cheng are for real?” Her mom started laughing again, “Alright, alright, alright. That Mu family boy, I like him too. Anyone that’s handsome, I like them. But it seems like something has happened at the Mu family, I don’t know how that’s going to end …”
“Just tell Xiaoxiao to rest well.” Her dad blurted out.
“What happened at the Mu family?” Tang Xiao couldn’t help but ask.
Her dad mumbled something else on the other side of the phone.
Her mom quickly changed the topic.
“Alright Xiaoxiao, rest well. In a few days, we’ll arrive.”
“En.”
The other side quickly hung up.
Mu family …
She used her phone to look up some of Mu family’s property and a.s.sets.
But all she got was news about Mu family’s company’s share prices in the last few days.
Tang Xiao couldn’t really understand these business terms but right now, the news seemed steady, there weren’t any hints of trouble.
When Mu Cheng got into an accident, he’d reached the headlines very early on.
It wasn’t known who leaked the hospital’s address but huge amounts of fans camped out at the hospital doors.
Just the amount of flower wreaths were enough to carve out a long winding flowery path.
When Tang Xiao saw the phrase ‘people like mountain and oceans’ in real life, she was a bit dazed.
She knew that Mu Cheng was popular but she didn’t realise that he could basically hold a mini concert like this.
Many fans held ‘get better soon’ signs and continued to try and peek inside.
Chief Ning completed Tang Xiao’s procedures for getting out of the hospital in a low profile manner.
Even the fact that she got hospitalised was hidden by him.
If the media found out that she and Mu Cheng had been hospitalised at the same time, at the same hospital, they’d probably go crazy.
Recently, the only thing she didn’t lack, was the ability to get into the headlines.
“The Orchid Awards ceremony is about to begin.” Chief Ning was driving as he suddenly remembered. “They’ve invited you to the red carpet, the invite’s in my office.”
Tang Xiao was nominated for Best Supporting Actress so she naturally received an invite.
“En?” Truthfully speaking, this was the first time that Tang Xiao had received an invitation to the Orchid Awards in her own name. “When did that happen?”
“Around the end of the month. Your whole cast will be together on the red carpet.” Chief Ning said. “In these two days, keep a low profile. Definitely, definitely, don’t get into the headlines again.”
“Alright, alright, alright.” Tang Xiao promised him. “What happened to Mu Cheng’s family? I just called mom and she mentioned it but she didn’t say anything.”
Chief Ning didn’t hide anything from her, he spoke simply. “Mu Cheng’s third uncle wants to swallow up the whole Mu family and he’s recently started to move. Mu Cheng and his sister started to fight back but don’t worry, just focus on preparing for the Orchid Awards.”
