Mu Sheng turned off the live telecast and turned to look at Jiang Tian and Tang Tiantian. “Let’s go.”
Jiang Tian told Cat Live they were leaving with complicated emotions running through his heart before leaving the company.
Tang Tiantian finally found her voice while they were halfway home and said with her eyes glinting, “Sheng, that was great. Your singing was mind-blowing!”
Tang Tiantian did not play video games, but she was certainly a fan of music. Mu Sheng’s singing had genuinely struck her at the heart.
Mu Sheng automatically looked for some candy, but there was none in her pocket, so she did not insist. “I was just singing casually.”
Tang Tiantian’s eyes gleamed. “I am sure you will be a hit.”
Mu Sheng’s cool languid vocals really struck her at her heart. She was certain that everyone would be enraptured by Mu Sheng’s voice.
“Right, Tian?” asked Tang Tiantian when she caught on to Jiang Tian’s silence. “What are you thinking about? Why haven’t you said a word?”
After Jiang Tian finally subdued the shock he got when he learned Mu Sheng was God Mu, he turned his head slightly. “Mu Sheng, what do you think about sleeping with people of power to get ahead? I am available if you are interested.”
“Tian, did someone kick you in the head?” Tang Tiantian rolled her eyes before looking at Mu Sheng. “Just ignore him. He is just having fits.”
Mu Sheng knew Jiang Tian was kidding, so she did not answer. Since she was a little tired, she said, “I am going to take a nap.”
“Sure thing.” Tang Tiantian proceeded to shut up.
Li Hanchen quietly sat in the living room with Mu Sheng’s singing echoing in his ears. He automatically touched the metal bracelet on his wrist with thoughts running through his head.
Li Hanchen stood up and headed out when he heard some noise coming from the yard.
“Goodnight. See you tomorrow.” Tang Tiantian waved at Mu Sheng before leaving the villa with Jiang Tian.
Mu Sheng was carrying her bag when she turned to see Li Hanchen coming out.
“Are you back?” Li Hanchen walked up to her and reached his hand out. There was a piece of toffee lying on his palm.
Mu Sheng bit her lip and took the candy. “Uh huh.”
Since the platform event lasted a long time today, it was already around 12:00 am. It was quiet in the yard as stars flickered in the sky.
Li Hanchen watched as Mu Sheng unwrapped the candy obediently. He suddenly raised his hand for some reason and put it on Mu Sheng’s head.
Mu Sheng had just eaten some toffee when she raised her head in surprise with her cool beautiful eyes opened wide.
Even though she had a cool aura, she inexplicably felt adorable.
Li Hanchen rubbed Mu Sheng’s head gently. “Welcome back.”
Mu Sheng was caught by surprise. However, her doctor’s instincts quickly kicked in. “Your hands feel cold. I need to give you treatment today.”
Li Hanchen smiled. “Sure.”
Mu Sheng did not react much when he placed his hand on her head. She put the rest of the candy in her mouth and looked inexplicably adorable with her cheeks swelling with food.
Li Hanchen caught the adorable look on her face and his hand slid off her head. “There is toffee stuck on your lips.”
“Hmm?” Mu Sheng automatically licked the corner of her lip and her red lips became glossy.
Li Hanchen swallowed and instinctively took a step forward.
Li An stuck his head out from the balcony on the second floor. He felt anxious just watching them.
“Kiss her! Kiss her already!” roared Li An in his heart.
Mu Sheng stepped forward at this very moment and disappeared out of Li An’s sight.
Li An leaned against the railing towards Mu Sheng until he was able to see her again.
Li An was very anxious, so he kept reaching his head out. A disappointed look swept across his eyes when he noticed Mu Sheng and Li Hanchen were only talking. What was going on? Was the atmosphere not perfect for kissing?
Li An leaned out to watch them for a while. He finally gave up and was about to leave when he felt it was impossible for them to make any progress tonight.
The moment he stepped back, his arms felt stiff and numb after leaning against the railing and watching them for so long.
Li An could barely move to begin with. Since he was already struggling to keep his balance, the moment he moved, he fell downstairs altogether.
Mu Sheng had placed her hand on Li Hanchen’s wrist to examine his pulse with her lips looking glossy.
Li Hanchen looked even more deeply at her and leaned towards her. “Was the candy good?”
Mu Sheng nodded. “Uh huh.”
Li Hanchen looked at her deeply. “In that case…”
Before Li Hanchen finished his sentence, something came crashing down behind Mu Sheng. Li Hanchen swiftly stepped in front of Mu Sheng and blocked her.
Li An’s excruciating howls could be heard nearby. “Big Bro! Help! I broke my leg! It’s killing me. Am I going to become paralyzed?”
Mu Sheng went speechless. She went over to examine Li An. “Don’t worry. It’s just a superficial injury.”
Since the balcony was only on the second floor and Li An was young, he was not badly hurt.
Li An opened his eyes wide as he scratched his head sheepishly. “Huh? I really thought I broke my leg or something. I am glad it’s okay.”
The moment he finished his sentence, Li An got up from the ground. He furtively glanced at Li Hanchen and saw him looking expressionless.
Li An’s face collapsed as he went beside Mu Sheng. “Sis-in-Law, I really didn’t mean it. Look at how angry he is. You have to save me.”
Help! Li An detected Li Hanchen’s fury and knew he was dead meat.
Mu Sheng glanced at Li Hanchen. Li Hanchen seemed completely normal to her, and she was unable to detect any anger coming from him.
Li Hanchen looked at Mu Sheng. “It’s getting late. Why don’t you go up and rest first?”
“Sure.” Mu Sheng walked in with her bag.
Li An wanted to secretly follow behind her, but Li Hanchen called for him. “Li An, stay.”
Li An howled desperately in his heart.
After Mu Sheng had already entered her room, Li Hanchen walked into the living room. “Come in.”
Li An followed behind him cautiously.
“Bring your Math homework over.” Li Hanchen sat on the couch and looked at Li An.
“Okay.” Li An wanted to make an excuse and say there was no Math homework today, but the moment he saw Li Hanchen’s deep eyes, he instantly swallowed his words.
Li An brought his homework over. Li Hanchen flipped through them for a look and placed them by the side. “Bring your pen over. I am going to watch you finish this. If you don’t finish ten pages, you aren’t allowed to sleep.”
Li An opened his eyes wide and spoke with his voice trembling slightly. “Ten… ten pages?”
Li Hanchen looked at him deeply. “Do you have a problem?”
Li An kept his mouth shut as he sat down with his pen miserably and cried rivers of tears inside.
Li An collapsed 30 minutes later as he looked at the homework sitting in front of him about function, range, monotonic function, and parity. He grabbed Li Hanchen’s arm miserably. “Big Bro, I am sorry.”
Li Hanchen veered his eyes from the newspaper and looked at Li An. “Why?”
“I shouldn’t have climbed up the balcony and fallen off it.”
Li Hanchen continued reading the newspaper and ignored Li An.
Li An was on the brink of tears. He grabbed Li Hanchen’s arm and swayed it. “I am sorry. I won’t spy on you from now on. Please forgive me.”
Even if his older brother and sister-in-law were kissing right in front of him now, he wouldn’t dare to watch them in action.
He didn’t want to get tortured by Math in the middle of the night. It was completely inhuman to make him do Math!
Li Hanchen put on a cold face and said nothing. Li An said softly, “Big Bro, I am really sorry. I will never peek from now on. I am really tired, so I am going to bed. If I don’t go to bed now, I am going to have trouble focusing in class tomorrow.”
Li Hanchen put down the paper and looked at Li An. “Why do you hate studying so much?”
Ever since Li Hanchen came back to the country, he never talked to Li An about school. Now that the opportunity had presented itself, he wanted to talk to Li An about it.
Li An nodded. “I am really bad at school. Everything is really hard for me.”
“Then what do you want to do?” Li Hanchen surprisingly did not reprimand Li An.
Li An contemplated before he said, “I just want to hang around at home and do nothing.”
Li Hanchen shot a chilly look at Li An right away. Li An shrank his neck. “Big Bro, I was just kidding. I don’t know what I want to do yet.”
He did not know what he wanted to do in the future. No one in the Li family ever cared about him before. He used to have good grades when he was a kid, but his family disregarded him and kept ridiculing him no matter what his grades were. Over time, he stopped caring about his grades.
“Why don’t you go to bed?” Li Hanchen glanced at Li An. “You will leave with me tomorrow morning.”
“Okay.” Li An nodded before looking at Li Hanchen with anticipation. “Where are we going?”
Li Hanchen stood up. “If I still see you standing here in three seconds, you will have to continue doing homework.”
The moment Li Hanchen finished his sentence, Li An bolted upstairs and disappeared. Two seconds later, he had already closed his bedroom door.
Li Hanchen smiled as he shook his head slightly.
He had no idea how this foolish little brother of his managed to survive for this long.
Even though it was already late at night and everyone had gone to bed, people kept thinking about Mu Sheng’s live telecast. They were so blown away by her epic performance that they were unable to calm down.
First thing in the morning, Mu Sheng became a hot topic online.
Topics about God Mu showing her face and turning out to be Mu Sheng kept flooding the internet. People also kept talking about her singing last night.
The last piece of news that got out about Mu Sheng was her scandal with Qiao Siyu. Now that they suddenly saw these topics appearing online, they could not help feeling puzzled.
What God Mu?
The fans were getting increasingly shameless these days. Could any random person be considered a god?
People tapped into the subject and saw a fan’s video about God Mu showing her face.
The public had some impression of God Mu. The shock they got from seeing her brilliant moves remained lingering in their hearts to this day.
The moment they brought up God Mu, they thought about his awesome gaming skills.
What did this have to do with Mu Sheng?
People tapped on the video curiously.
God Mu’s familiar moves could be seen inside the footage. A girl dressed in white with a ponytail held a gun and moved through the gunfire and made the port area her territory.
A line of words appeared on the footage as everyone watched God Mu excitedly.
[Are you ready? God Mu is going to show her face!]
It successively piqued everyone’s curiosity. Considering God Mu’s cool moves, people really wanted to know whether he was a gorgeous young man.
Mu Sheng’s cool stunning face promptly appeared on the screen as she sat in front of the computer quietly with her fingers flying across the keyboard as she kept her eyes on the screen.
Her cool exquisite features were so beautiful that it was impossible not to look at her.
Everyone was stunned.
[Is she God Mu’s girlfriend? Well, she is certainly gorgeous.]
[It is time for you to upgrade your internet service. This is God Mu, okay? She isn’t his girlfriend. God Mu is Mu Sheng. The same minor actress who had a scandal with Qiao Siyu.]
[You can gossip about Mu Sheng if you want, but please don’t drag Qiao Siyu into this. He has already said he doesn’t have a girlfriend. Then again, I must say this young woman is certainly gorgeous. No, correction… She is no ordinary beauty.]
Some were still reeling in shock that Mu Sheng was God Mu while others were blown away by Mu Sheng’s singing.
A cool languid voice flowed from the footage. It sounded as though they were having a nice relaxing afternoon taking a walk along the beach and running into the sunset.
[Oh god! Is that Mu Sheng? I simply didn’t go online for a couple of days. Why is Mu Sheng so different now? How could she be capable of singing like this? Isn’t she tone deaf?]
[It is simply beautiful… I haven’t heard such a great voice in ages. I am completely immersed in the song.]
[Pftt. You are such country bumpkins. Mu Sheng doesn’t have any singing technique to speak of. Her breathing is completely wrong. Her singing is nothing. It’s only good enough to fool dunces like you. If you don’t know anything about singing, it is about time you learn something. Don’t embarrass yourself out here, okay?]
Mu Sheng became the hottest topic on social media.
The moment she saw people praising Mu Sheng, Ruan Yingying nearly broke her freshly done nails. “Didn’t I tell you to get me some online marketing in social media? Have you done it? Who does Mu Sheng think she is? How could she become such a hot topic on social media? How could she surpass me?”
Cat Live’s viewership skyrocketed when Mu Sheng showed her face at the industry event last night and it was impossible for Tiger Shark to do anything about it.
Despite hiring Ruan Yingying to make an appearance, it was impossible to turn around the situation.
Ruan Yingying was already furious about losing to Mu Sheng during the event. Now that Mu Sheng was a hot topic online, she couldn’t help being even angrier.
“There is nothing we can do about it. The social media platform told us Mu Sheng is too hot right now, so if we want to surpass her, we have to pay billions to do it. The company doesn’t have that kind of money.”
“Get lost!” The moment the talent agent finished her sentence, she threw a cup at the door. The staff scattered and retreated from the room, leaving Ruan Yingying smashing things in the room on her own.
After an hour’s drive into the suburbs, Li Hanchen finally got to the destination with Li An.
Li An felt puzzled looking at the place. “Big Bro, why did you bring me here?”
