Chapter 75 Leak
It's unclear what Mu Xiaoyu was thinking, but she paused abruptly after speaking, then tilted her chin back, suppressing a laugh as she looked at Li Chenxu and said, "But Chenxu, no matter where you go, everyone's afraid of you. I remember watching a documentary where police dogs were like that; the moment they appeared, the criminals were too scared to run. Don't you think... you're just like those police dogs?"
Mu Xiaoyu must have gotten herself into a real daze today, daring to compare Li Chenxu to a dog. If it were the old her, she would never have dared to say such a thing.
Li Chenxu probably didn't expect Mu Xiaoyu to be so bold. Hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, he didn't react for a moment and stared at Mu Xiaoyu blankly for a while before he came back to his senses.
He wasn't angry, but his thick, dark eyebrows twitched slightly as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a half-smile: "Xiaoyu, are you saying I look like a dog?"
"What dog! I'm talking about a police dog!"
Mu Xiaoyu retorted righteously, appearing serious on the surface, but inside she couldn't help but want to burst out laughing. What she just said was the truth: every time Li Chenxu stood in a crowd, no matter how many people were there before, within a minute, everyone around Li Chenxu would disappear completely.
She said that police dogs aren't really accurate; Li Chenxu is even more capable than a police dog. Okay, police dogs are still dogs, and that's what she really thought.
But what she was thinking was one thing, and she couldn't show it, otherwise, given Li Chenxu's personality, she would definitely suffer!
Mu Xiaoyu had made up her mind that she would never admit it, no matter what. She looked up at Li Chenxu with a serious expression.
Li Chenxu didn't speak, but just looked down at Mu Xiaoyu's feigned composure, his thin lips curving upwards even more than before.
"What...what do you want to do?"
Even though Li Chenxu was smiling, Mu Xiaoyu's intuition told her that Li Chenxu was still too dangerous at this moment.
She stared wide-eyed at He Lichenxu, stammering, unable to utter a single complete sentence.
Mu Xiaoyu felt that she was really embarrassed at this moment. She should not be afraid of Li Chenxu, but the other party's aura was too strong. She even admired her past self for how she confronted Li Chenxu head-on!
Looking back now, I was incredibly daring!
Mu Xiaoyu's inner thoughts were quite complex at this moment. Perhaps because she was trusting Li Chenxu more and more, Mu Xiaoyu did not hide much from Li Chenxu. What she was thinking was almost entirely revealed on her face.
Even though she's such a grown-up, people outside say Mu Xiaoyu is aloof, but now in front of Li Chenxu, she's like a child, incredibly cute.
Li Chenxu couldn't help but chuckle. His eyes were no longer filled with the feigned profundity he had just displayed, but rather with a smile that was almost overflowing.
He opened his mouth, about to say something, but at that moment, Mu Xiaoyu's phone suddenly rang.
Before coming to City B, Mu Xiaoyu had already informed the magazine that she wouldn't be discussing any work-related matters for the next few days, unless it was extremely urgent, otherwise the magazine wouldn't call her.
When the phone rang, Mu Xiaoyu initially thought it was someone from the magazine. But when she took out her phone, she saw it was the editor-in-chief of SQ calling.
Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu exchanged a glance. Finally, Li Chenxu released his grip on Mu Xiaoyu's chin and said, "Hurry up and answer it, in case something important comes up."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu nodded and, without further delay, immediately answered the phone.
"Miss Mu, where are you right now?"
Xu Shu's voice on the other end of the phone was very serious, even carrying a hint of anger. If someone from the magazine were calling at this time, Mu Xiaoyu might not even know what had happened.
But since the person who called was Xu Shu, it's easy to guess.
Mu Xiaoyu did not answer Xu Shu immediately. After pondering for a moment, she said, "Editor-in-Chief Xu, if I'm not mistaken, has my submitted comic been leaked?"
"It seems Miss Mu is aware of this matter. It was all clearly stated in the contract when it was signed. If Miss Mu cannot resolve this issue, she should be well aware of the consequences..."
Mu Xiaoyu's new comic book was leaked in advance, or more accurately, it was published by someone else beforehand. Although their drawing skills are far inferior to Mu Xiaoyu's, even so, the other party released it first. When Mu Xiaoyu releases her later comics, as long as they have even the slightest similarity to the other party's, she will be falsely accused of plagiarism.
As the editor-in-chief, Xu Shu was naturally a little angry that something she had long anticipated had happened. However, after she said those words, her anger subsided considerably.
She let out a deep sigh and continued speaking to the silent Mu Xiaoyu, "Miss Mu, if you understand the situation now, please come to the comic book store. I think this matter needs to be resolved quickly, otherwise..."
Xu Shu didn't continue speaking, but even if she didn't, Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't understand her meaning. Mu Xiaoyu had already signed a contract with the comic book company, and now that this had come to light, the comic book company would definitely be the one to suffer direct losses.
Especially for a top-tier comic book publisher like SQ, plagiarism scandals are unacceptable. If Mu Xiaoyu doesn't resolve this matter properly, SQ will definitely take legal action to sever ties with her, which would be a severe blow to Mu Xiaoyu's career.
Fortunately, Mu Xiaoyu was prepared. Hearing Xu Shu's words, she remained calm and composed, saying, "I'm still doing research in City B. I'll be here by tomorrow morning at the latest... Editor-in-Chief Xu, I know you won't believe me at this time, but I still have to say it. Since I dared to sign a contract with SQ, I'm confident I can prevent this comic from failing. Just wait and see."
