The next morning, Mu Qingyan had not yet woken up, but entertainment news related to him was already all over the place.
“Mu Qingyan drinks every night after his divorce, accompanied by a mysterious man,” “A certain man sends the young master of the Mu Group home and doesn’t leave for the night”…
This time, Xing Hao learned his lesson and spent a lot of money to push the hot search rankings, even hiring someone to monitor it. As long as someone wanted to pay to remove the hot search, he would continue to add more money.
He wanted to make Mu Qingyan’s reputation plummet, just like when he was exposed for cheating.
Unexpectedly, the direction of public opinion on the internet was completely opposite to what he had expected.
[I didn’t expect Mu Qingyan to be so sentimental, still drinking after so many months since the divorce.]
[Yes, I feel so sorry for him.]
[It’s really not worth it for someone like Xing Hao, a scumbag!]
Xing Hao: ???
Wait, why am I being criticized again?
Not only that, netizens also began to send their blessings.
[It’s good that someone can accompany him.]
[Yes, I hope he can find happiness.]
[I really want to know who the mysterious man with Mu Mu is and if he really loves him.]
…
Xing Hao scrolled through the comments under these hot searches, feeling bitter.
After receiving this news, he spent a lot of money to push it to the hot search rankings to make netizens hate Mu Qingyan, not to increase his popularity for nothing.
Even less so to make himself a target again.
He had just called to stop pushing the hot search, but found that Ji Liyun’s new Weibo had already become the number one hot search.
Ji Liyun reposted the entertainment news <A certain mysterious man accompanies Mu Qingyan drinking and sends him home> and wrote in the caption, “Hello everyone, I am that mysterious man.”
The whole internet exploded.
[What? The mysterious man is actually the President of the Ji Group?!]
[President Ji must have stayed out all night to take care of the drunken Mr. Mu. He really is a good friend!]
[Such a pure friendship has been exploited!]
Ji Liyun broke out in a sweat on his forehead, thinking, I don’t need to be judged as a good friend, it’s just pure friendship…
As a result, the situation changed to the friendship between Mu Qingyan and Ji Liyun, and fans began to post pictures of them together online, saying that this pair of brothers was really eye-catching.
Upon reaching this point, Xing Hao was completely deflated — it’s really not easy to smear Mu Qingyan online.
It was almost ten o’clock when Mu Qingyan woke up from his sleep, already completely forgetting how he left EVOL bar last night and how he got home to go to bed.
He washed up and walked downstairs, seeing a table filled with an extremely lavish breakfast.
However, this breakfast was completely different from what he usually ate, it seemed to not be made by his hired family chef.
He waved to Li, the housekeeper standing in the living room, and asked, “Did you interview a new breakfast chef and let me taste their food?”
“No, no,” Li hurriedly shook his head. “You didn’t give any orders, how could I interview a new chef without your permission?”
Mu Qingyan thought for a moment and realized that he was right. Now, he was the one in charge of the house, no longer the previous owner who didn’t care about anything.
He murmured, “I guess Sun has learned new breakfast dishes.”
But unexpectedly, Li shook his head again. “No, Master Mu.”
It wasn’t Sun, then who could it be? Did the villa have a new girl selling snails?
Just as he was wondering, he sat down at the table, and saw Ji Liyun come out of the kitchen with iced coffee in his hand. He was wearing an apron around his waist and the clothes he wore last night.
Mu Qingyan looked at him in surprise. “Did you make this breakfast table?”
Ji Liyun handed him the iced milk coffee and said, “As a guest who stayed overnight, it’s only right to make breakfast for the host. I remember you like iced coffee, try the taste of what I made?”
“How can I be so presumptuous?” Mu Qingyan counted roughly, and although the amount of each breakfast wasn’t too much, there were twenty kinds in total, indicating that Ji Liyun spent a lot of effort and time.
He then said, “Come and eat with me.”
“Okay.” Ji Liyun took off his apron and handed it to the maid standing next to him, then sat opposite Mu Qingyan.
The two of them ate breakfast quietly, with Mu Qingyan occasionally complimenting the food.
In his mind, Ji Liyun was just like him, a wealthy young master who never cooked and couldn’t possibly have such good culinary skills.
Ji Liyun seemed to sense his confusion and said with a smile, “Besides work, I don’t have many interests or hobbies. When I was abroad, I was busy with work and socializing, so I hardly had time to make friends. Whenever I had free time, I taught myself how to cook.”
“I started to learn to alleviate boredom, but unexpectedly, my skills improved over time.”
“That’s a great hobby!” Mu Qingyan said with his mouth full, looking like a cute little hamster. Ji Liyun couldn’t help but laugh.
“Don’t laugh,” Mu Qingyan said after swallowing his food. “I’m serious, not just flattering you.”
“I know,” Ji Liyun replied, thinking to himself, as long as you like it, that’s all that matters.
“Oh, by the way, your iced coffee is delicious,” Mu Qingyan complimented after taking a sip. “You have to teach my barista how to make it so I can have it every day.”
Afterward, he asked, “When did I come home last night? Did you take me home? I don’t remember anything.”
As he was speaking, the butler Li gestured with his eyes for him to stop, but Mu Qingyan was too fast and already asked the question.
Li rubbed his forehead, thinking how awkward this was.
Ji Liyun chuckled softly, then regained his composure and said, “You drank too much last night. When I took you home, you were already in a drunken stupor and couldn’t be woken up no matter how hard I tried.”
“I’m sorry about that,” Mu Qingyan said with an embarrassed smile. “Thank you for taking me home.”
He had been about to ask why Ji Liyun stayed overnight at his place if he had already taken him home, but seeing Li still gesturing at him, he decided not to.
“I found out through my contacts that the person who attacked you two nights ago is claiming to have a personal grudge against you, so he broke into the MU company to attack you. He refused to reveal who hired him.”
Mu Qingyan remembered the conversation he had with Ji Liyun two nights ago and raised an eyebrow. “We guessed right.”
“Indeed,” Ji Liyun smiled and said goodbye. “Rest well, I have to go back to the company.”
“Okay.”
Mu Qingyan ate breakfast slowly and asked the butler Li who had been standing next to her, “Why did you keep making eye contact with me and not letting me ask earlier?”
Li the butler didn’t answer directly, just lowered his head and said, “Young Master Mu, it’s better not to ask.”
“Speak, what’s going on?” Mu Qingyan threatened, “Otherwise, I’ll deduct three months of your bonus.”
“I didn’t let you ask why Mr. Ji stayed here overnight because…” Li the butler gritted his teeth for the sake of his three months’ bonus, “…because you kept holding onto him and not letting him go!”
“Oh, not again?”
Author’s note:
Ji Liyun: Since my wife is so reluctant to let me go, of course I wouldn’t mind staying. No, I mean, I’ll certainly obey her.
Mu Qingyan: There must be something wrong!
