At those words, CEO Wang was not the only one stunned, everyone else looked flabbergasted.
What… did he mean by this?
A commotion broke out among the crowd. The two reporters who had deliberately targeted Li Beinian were now under police custody.
When they heard Mu Xichen’s words, they exchanged looks, horrified.
Trying to maintain his composure, CEO Wang turned to look at Gu Mingye with uncertainty. “Erm… Mr. Gu…”
Gu Mingye gave him a look of affirmation and said, “Didn’t you want our CEO to clarify the situation? Well, he’s here now. Say what you need to.”
As soon as he said this, gasps could be heard among the crowd. Immediately, there was an uproar!
“F***!”
“What the hell! Nian’s Hubby is actually the CEO of Sheng An Entertainment?”
“F***, is this for real? This is too ridiculous. Is he just making this up to show off?”
“Ptui, how is that possible? What sort of occasion do you think this is? Is it an occasion to be bull-s****ing?”
“Ahhhhhhhh, no way, Nian’s Hubby is… is actually…”
Not only was the audience shocked, even Li Beinian was taken aback and blurted out, “You’re the CEO of Sheng An? Wasn’t it rumored that Sheng An’s CEO is old, ugly and impotent?”
As she was standing close to the microphone, her shocked exclamation could be heard over the sound system.
Immediately, everyone fell silent.
All eyes were now on Li Beinian.
Even Mu Xichen’s attention was on her.
At this point, he narrowed his eyes, looking at her as he took a step towards her. “Don’t you know if I’m impotent or not?”
With that, a commotion erupted among the crowd again!
“F***!”
“Where’s the clarification? I don’t want to know if Nian’s Hubby is impotent!”
“Obviously he’s so not impotent. He’s about 1.9 meters tall isn’t he… ahhhhh, going by proportions, he’s definitely not impotent!”
“What has it got to do with you? He’s not your man!”
“This is too much.” Someone threw his phone down angrily. “I reject this sort of public display of affection!”
Li Beinian turned a bright scarlet at once.
Confronted by this commotion, she glared at Mu Xichen angrily and said, “Stop talking nonsense!”
“Why is this nonsense?” Mu Xichen reached out to hold her hand. “The day I proposed to you, I gave you my business licenses. Didn’t you see it?”
“I didn’t. I only saw Shangzhi Corporation. I didn’t notice the names of the other two companies!” Li Beinian looked aggrieved. “Now everyone’s saying that I slept with the boss of Sheng An. I feel so wrongfully accused!”
Mu Xichen’s expression softened and he said gently, “So now you know?”
“Yes I got it alright!” Li Beinian looked indignant as she shook his hand off and shouted, “Clearly, it was Sheng An’s boss who slept with me!”
“Oh—”
The crowd started cheering.
Looking at Li Beinian’s flushed face, a hint of a smile flashed across Mu Xichen’s initially gloomy face. He drew her towards him and whispered, “Alright already, we obviously sleep in the same bed. Why are we nit-picking?”
His deep voice was full of deep affection.
He spoke like how he would normally speak, but when he said these words before an audience of thousands, Li Beinian found it hard to maintain her composure.
Turning an even brighter red now, she could feel her heart pounding wildly.
“Damn it, wasn’t this supposed to be a press conference on the perfume! Lies!”
“Mom, I want to go home. This world is too evil towards singletons…”
