Chapter 731: Learning to Cherish
"Oh, I see. I understand now."
Li Chenxu let out a long "oh," and his gaze towards Mu Xiaoyu instantly became meaningful.
Mu Xiaoyu's face grew increasingly hot under his gaze. She gently pushed Li Chenxu away, got off him, and said, "I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going to go draw. That comic book of mine has been on hiatus for a long time. If I don't update it soon, I'm afraid my readers will forget about me."
Li Chenxu got up and followed behind her, then asked, "So, after this period of time is over, are you still going to the entertainment industry?"
"decide as things go."
Mu Xiaoyu hesitated. Perhaps the entertainment industry's popularity was only temporary, and once this period was over, the enthusiasm would wane.
However, thinking about how much her fans cared for her when she had her accident, her desire to leave the entertainment industry weakened considerably.
Although there are many haters online, there are also quite a few people who like her.
You can't truly understand how wonderful it feels to be liked by so many people unless you experience it for yourself.
She was a little reluctant to part with it.
Seemingly sensing Mu Xiaoyu's hesitation, Li Chenxu followed behind her and said, "If you can't bear to give up either of them, just reduce your workload on both sides. Anyway, leave the earning and supporting the family to me, you just need to do what you like. Besides, neither of us is short of money, are we?"
"I'll think about it again."
Mu Xiaoyu spoke vaguely. She wasn't a hesitant person; in many ways, she could even be described as quite decisive. But this was something she simply couldn't decide on so quickly.
She was thinking this and didn't pay attention to Li Chenxu. It wasn't until she got to Shu Shi's side that she realized Li Chenxu was still following behind her.
"Why are you still following me?"
“I have nothing to do, so I watch you draw. I haven’t really watched you draw much before.”
"Why don't you have anything to do? Doesn't the company have plenty of work to do?"
It would be a miracle if Mu Xiaoyu believed Li Chenxu's words. She knew all too well how busy Li Chenxu was. When he was with her at the hospital, he was making the most of every spare moment to handle work-related matters.
Even so, there was still a backlog of company affairs that needed to be handled.
To say there's nothing to do right now is blatant lying.
Li Chenxu blinked innocently at Mu Xiaoyu, looking serious: "I'm telling the truth. There are some things that need to be handled at the company, and I really don't have anything to do right now."
"Then you..."
Mu Xiaoyu was about to suggest that Li Chenxu go to the company, but when she thought of the scene of Li Chenxu leaving her, she suddenly became a little scared.
So she hummed twice and said in a deliberately reluctant tone, "Fine, I'll reluctantly let you in. But let me make this clear first, you're not allowed to disturb me. If you dare to disturb me, you can forget about ever watching me paint again."
"Okay, don't worry, I definitely won't bother you."
Li Chenxu nodded repeatedly. The contrast between his usual domineering and forceful demeanor and his sudden obedient and docile manner was so endearing that Mu Xiaoyu almost couldn't resist giving him a kiss.
However, the two of them were so lovey-dovey today that after Mu Xiaoyu calmed down and thought about how clingy she had been to Li Chenxu in front of others, she felt even more embarrassed.
She was actually reluctant to continue being close to Li Chenxu at this time, but Li Chenxu's presence made her feel very safe.
After much deliberation, she decided to let Li Chenxu stay by her side.
Anyway, the two of them have done a lot of shameless things. In front of her, Li Chenxu almost doesn't care about his reputation. If she is still so shy, Li Chenxu will definitely make fun of her about this in the future.
So Mu Xiaoyu pretended to be calm and led Li Chenxu into the study. Li Chenxu had all her drawing tools, such as the graphics tablet, neatly arranged, just as when she left, as if she had never left.
Looking at the familiar layout of the study, scenes that had happened here before kept flashing before her eyes. They seemed to rush by like a revolving lantern, yet were incredibly clear.
There was actually more than one study in the villa. In the past, the two had a deep misunderstanding and were like strangers to each other. They each used their own study and never had any interaction.
After the two cleared up their misunderstandings and their relationship grew stronger, they even started using the same study for work, which is the study where Mu Xiaoyu is currently located.
Both of them are usually very busy with work, and the time they can actually spend together is not much. But even so, they still try to make the most of every opportunity to increase their time together.
In this study, they didn't talk much most of the time. They each did their own thing: Mu Xiaoyu painted, while Li Chenxu handled company matters.
Even though I don't say a word, I don't feel uncomfortable at all.
A long time ago, Mu Xiaoyu saw someone say online that the best state for two people to be together is to each do their own thing, without saying a word, but still feel comfortable with each other and without any awkwardness.
She didn't think much about it at the time, but now that she thinks about it carefully, isn't that the best state she was in with Li Chenxu?
Their relationship was far from smooth; in fact, it was fraught with difficulties. Over the years, Mu Xiaoyu had considered giving up several times, but each time Li Chenxu pulled her back.
To this day, their feelings for each other have only grown stronger.
Perhaps it was because of those difficulties that they realized how precious each other was and cherished their relationship even more.
"Xiaoyu?"
Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu stood there without moving for a long time, Li Chenxu thought that Mu Xiaoyu was not feeling well, so he called her a few times.
His voice instantly pulled Mu Xiaoyu back to reality; the other person's gaze was incredibly complex.
Li Chenxu felt inexplicably guilty under Mu Xiaoyu's gaze, and he shifted uncomfortably: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Because you're handsome."
"I knew you didn't just realize that today, did you?"
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu was quite mischievous, a stark contrast to her earlier demeanor. Therefore, Li Chenxu didn't believe that this was all Mu Xiaoyu was talking about; instead, he was even more convinced that he had done something wrong to make Mu Xiaoyu angry.
Thinking of this, he quickly apologized, saying, "It was my fault. Don't be angry. I won't make the same mistake again."
Mu Xiaoyu: "?? What did you do wrong?"
