On the highway, Mu Chen watched the BMW speed towards Qingcheng International. However, Mu Chen’s expression was grave as he thought about the Qingwu invitation. He didn’t believe that the boss of Qingwu invited him for a meal; the only explanation was that it was a setup. Given the commotion he had caused in Yundu and the power he had revealed, there was no way Qingwu wouldn’t know about it.
"Let it be, we’ll know what they want to do when the time comes. Right now, I’m more worried about Catherine; this stunning beauty will be arriving soon," Mu Chen thought, growing increasingly helpless.
Soon enough, Mu Chen arrived at Qingcheng International, but as soon as he got there, everyone was shocked to see him because he had become more handsome, almost like a different person.
Shamelessly, Mu Chen looked at the crowd and said, "I’m just handsome, that’s it. Besides being handsome, I have no other merits."
"Shameless." Many people commented lightly, thinking that Mu Chen was too shameless.
"Being handsome is exhausting. People talk about it every day. Ah, I’m so tired," Mu Chen lamented as he walked.
He soon reached the sales department. Just like before, all the women there were not only shocked but also crowded around him, including Yao Yue, all showing astonishment.
Mu Chen felt helpless as he was surrounded by the women without any thought of resistance.
"Mu Chen, did you get plastic surgery?"
"It must be the Immortal Elixir."
"Come on, confess honestly."
Everyone looked at Mu Chen, speaking earnestly.
"Damn, what are you thinking? Plastic surgery, Immortal Elixir? None of the above. This is all natural—I’ve completely transformed!" Mu Chen laughed.
"Natural growth? Why don’t I see myself getting more beautiful? Come on, tell us, otherwise, we won’t let you off today!" the women said fiercely.
"Yao Yue, they’re going to kill me, you have to stop them! I am your man!" Mu Chen shouted.
"Still calling yourself a man? Stop talking nonsense and tell us," Yao Yue said annoyed, pinching Mu Chen’s ear seriously.
Yao Yue, scoring over eighty points in looks, always wanted to be prettier so she wouldn’t feel inferior when accompanying Mu Chen around other women. Seeing Mu Chen become more handsome stirred her.
"So, claiming Yao Yue as your wife, it’s clear you’re lying. Just confess, did you get something that made you handsome?"
"I’m being wronged! Even diving into the Yellow River wouldn’t clear my name!" Mu Chen felt like crying; was it wrong to be handsome?
"What are you all doing?" At this moment, Ao Xue appeared, saw the women pinching Mu Chen’s ear and grabbing his neck, and spoke seriously.
"Darling, save me," Mu Chen said earnestly as he saw Ao Xue.
"Who is your darling? Mere hooligan," Ao Xue immediately retorted upon hearing Mu Chen’s words.
Thinking about her future in the company, Ao Xue quickly tried to distance herself from Mu Chen, the rascal.
"Director, we can’t hide this time. Mu Chen has become handsome; we also want to become beautiful."
"What? He became handsome?" Ao Xue said, seriously looking at Mu Chen, genuinely shocked after seeing him.
"Stupid rascal, becoming handsome overnight, tell us how!" Ao Xue also joined the women, speaking seriously.
"Beautiful Ao Xue, I really am innocent!" Mu Chen exclaimed.
But the women didn’t believe him and continued to torment him.
However, at that moment, Lisa suddenly appeared, coughing: "Mu Chen, the president is looking for you."
"I’ll go right now," Mu Chen said, seeing hope, and immediately told the women, "The president is calling me, I have to go now."
"When the president calls, you always take so long to respond. Just treat it as a few minutes delay, it’s fine, tell us what really happened?" Ao Xue insisted seriously.
With Ao Xue speaking, the women were even less inclined to let Mu Chen go.
"Lisa, save me, save me..."
"I used to dislike you being in the sales department because there were too many beauties, but now it seems not too bad," Lisa smirked and turned to leave.
The women tortured Mu Chen for several more minutes. They nearly twisted his ear off, pinched his nose red, and almost strangled him before feeling exhausted and taking a few minutes to let him go.
"Ah... this is a living hell... I need to escape..." Mu Chen said, crawling out of the sales department.
"Serves you right for not coming to see me for days," Yao Yue laughed as she watched him.
"In the office, you forced yourself on me, serves you right," Ao Xue said from inside the office.
After leaving, Mu Chen immediately went to the president’s office, planning to take revenge one by one, starting with Lisa who didn’t help him.
At that moment, Lisa also left the president’s office holding some documents, but her expression wasn’t good.
"Hooligan, stop, I know what you’re planning, but I just got scolded by the president and feel wronged. You have to comfort me," Lisa said somewhat tearfully upon seeing Mu Chen.
"What happened?" Mu Chen asked, concerned seeing Lisa almost crying.
"The president seemed cold as ice today, suffocating, and even called me stupid."
"What else can it be?"
"Don’t worry, maybe Liu Yuxi is just having her period, it’s nothing."
"You’re on your own!" Lisa said, and quickly left.
"Is it really that bad?"
Mu Chen didn’t think so and immediately entered the office.
"Darling, what did you need me for?" Mu Chen asked, looking at the busy Liu Yuxi.
"In the office, call me president," Liu Yuxi replied coldly.
"Alright, President Darling," Mu Chen said with a smile.
"Forget it, I can’t be bothered with you, let’s get to the point. You’ve been idle for a while, so I have two tasks for you."
"First, it’s Catherine. For some reason, she has chosen our company to organize a concert for her. She has agreed to promote our company, increase cooperation opportunities, and even shoot a commercial for us without charge. It’s a rare opportunity, so you are responsible for ensuring Catherine’s safety."
"Darling, Catherine is such a high-profile figure, she will have her own protection, what do I need to do?"
"What about at the event? What if chaos ensues? Don’t you need protection?"
"Alright! I understand, I agree. What’s the second thing?"
"It’s about inviting some domestic singers. I don’t have time to deal with it, and it’s a big task, so you handle it."
"Invite other singers, why?"
"Catherine is the showstopper; she has to appear last. We need some people to set the stage."
