Mr. Mu appears aloof in public, but secretly proposes marriage and kisses.

Su Mingli was furious with Su Yunge.

However, they also obtained important information.

Su Muran and Mu Tingshen went to a jewelry gala.

He immediately asked his secretary to help him find out where jewelry banquets were being held.

Upon receiving the news from City S, I immediately drove there.

At this moment, Mu Tingshen had already brought Su Muran into the arena.

This wasn't Su Muran's first time attending a banquet; he had often accompanied Mrs. Su to high-end events in the past.

However, having been away from China for three years, she was no longer familiar with the current format of banquets.

When I saw so many beautiful women and handsome men, I wondered how there could be so many good-looking young people.

Finally, she saw a familiar face; it was one of Lin Xiaowei's favorite male celebrities.

That's when I realized, no wonder so many handsome men and beautiful women are celebrities?

However, almost all of these celebrities were wearing jewelry.

"Are they displaying jewelry?"

Su Muran asked Mu Tingshen curiously.

Mu Tingshen replied, "These days, jewelry shows and launches often invite celebrities. Their ability to drive sales is much higher than that of ordinary people. Take a good look and see if there's anything you like, but you're only allowed to look at the jewelry, not at the people."

There are many beautiful female celebrities, and quite a few handsome male celebrities as well.

After all, high-society parties are no longer the exclusive domain of men; there are many wealthy women there as well.

Although he was very confident in his appearance, he was still somewhat lacking in confidence in front of Su Muran after all, as she had once abandoned him.

"I've been living abroad and rarely pay attention to things in China, let alone know any celebrities. I only know one, and that's because Xiaowei likes him. Could I get him an autograph for Xiaowei? Xiaowei would be so happy if she could get his autograph."

Su Muran explained to Mu Tingshen, while also trying to secure benefits for her best friend.

Mu Tingshen said, "An autograph is nothing, a photo is fine too."

Immediately, he instructed Zhou Shi to call the person over.

Not long after, the male celebrity arrived, led by Zhou Shi.

He greeted Mu Tingshen and Su Muran with great respect.

Upon learning that Su Muran wanted an autograph, he immediately had his assistant bring a pen and photos, and signed three autographs for Su Muran.

"Ms. Su, would you like a photo taken together?"

The male celebrity asked the question with a respectful attitude.

Su Muran was flattered and overwhelmed.

Because Lin Xiaowei liked him, she also knew something about this male celebrity.

He always appears aloof and unrestrained on screen, but I never expected him to be so approachable in private.

"We don't need a group photo, but could I take a solo picture of you? My friend really likes you."

She didn't want to take a photo with her best friend's favorite male celebrity and make her friend envious and jealous.

"sure."

The male celebrity immediately cooperated and took several photos.

"He's completely different from what's said online. People online say he's aloof and doesn't like to talk, but I think he has a great personality."

After the male celebrities left, Su Muran texted Lin Xiaowei, sending her the photos, and then spoke to Mu Tingshen.

Mu Tingshen smiled but didn't say anything.

Actually, not many people knew he was coming today.

In addition, he has always kept a low profile, and this is S City, so not many people know him.

However, because a male celebrity was invited to come and pose for autographs and photos, many people knew that he was also there.

Soon enough, quite a few people came over to say hello.

Some people who know him rarely see him with anyone by his side.

Their gazes fell upon Su Muran, all filled with scrutiny.

However, Mu Tingshen did not give anyone a chance to ask further questions, and quickly changed the subject, keeping Su Muran by his side the whole time.

Su Muran followed him all the way, her gaze unconsciously falling on the jade pendant around the female celebrity's neck, so she slowed down.

Mu Tingshen followed her gaze and asked in a low voice, "You like it?"

Su Muran said, "My mom should like it."

Mu Tingshen asked Zhou Shi to call the female celebrity over so that Su Muran could get a closer look.

After the female celebrity arrived, she chatted with Su Muran very enthusiastically and introduced her to the jewelry.

Su Muran also thought it was a good fit for her mother, and nodded deeply to Mu Ting.

Mu Tingshen asked Zhou Shi to take the female celebrity away. Since he had already decided to take her, he naturally had to remove her.

"You've chosen one for your mother, now what do you like?"

Mu Tingshen then asked Su Muran.

Su Muran quickly shook her head and said, "I don't need to. I'll give you a gift, and you can give me one in return. That's just right."

"Do you really have to be so calculating with me?"

Mu Tingshen asked unhappily.

In his view, her refusal to accept his gift stemmed from her not wanting to owe him a favor.

He knew her quite well; she was the kind of person who disliked owing favors to others.

If you don't owe anyone favors, you won't feel pressured when you want to leave.

Even close brothers need to keep clear accounts; isn't it only right that we settle things clearly?

Su Muran retorted in a low voice.

Mu Ting gritted his teeth in anger, his face cold as he remained silent.

Just then, a female celebrity walked by surrounded by a crowd.

Mu Tingshen glanced at it and said coldly to Zhou Shi, "Buy it, it's yours."

Zhou Shi: "..."

I thought to myself, if you're going to give me jewelry, you should at least give me a men's piece. What's the point of giving me a women's piece?

However, he dared not ask.

The boss's face is as black as coal now; he'd only ask him if he wanted to be yelled at.

"Brother Tingshen, what a coincidence, you're here too."

A soft, delicate voice came from behind.

Su Muran looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl in a champagne-colored dress walking over.

The girl's gaze fell on Su Muran, then subtly swept over her, before she looked at Mu Tingshen and asked with a smile, "And this is...?"

"brother."

Mu Tingshen answered with a cold face.

The girl was embarrassed, and Su Muran was also embarrassed.

However, the girl was clearly used to his cold and sarcastic attitude. She smiled awkwardly and took the initiative to extend her hand to greet Su Muran.

"Hello, my name is Wendy, and my father is also a member of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce."

"Hello, Su Muran."

Su Muran shook hands with her and introduced herself in a gentle tone.

Su Muran?

Wendy thought for a moment, but she had never heard of this name before.

However, since the other party did not introduce their family background, she did not feel comfortable asking further.

"Brother Tingshen, I ran into Sister Meng a couple of days ago. She said you two had a fight and you ran off abroad in a fit of anger. How did you end up here? If I had known you were here, Sister Meng would definitely have come too."

"You talk too much. I went abroad on business, it has nothing to do with her. Don't talk nonsense to her. I decided to come here at the last minute, and I'm preparing to leave now."

"Are you leaving so early? This is just the beginning."

Wendy reminded her.

Mu Tingshen glanced at Su Muran and snorted coldly, "If someone doesn't like it, what's the point of keeping them here?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Wendy's eyes, and she couldn't help but glance at Su Muran a couple more times.

He wondered to himself, who exactly is this woman? And what is her relationship with Mu Tingshen?

"Let's go, brother."

Ignoring Wendy's curious gaze, Mu Tingshen urged Su Muran in an unpleasant tone.

Su Muran looked embarrassed, nodded to Wendy, and quickly followed Mu Tingshen away.
