"Su Ran?"

Mu Chen widened his eyes in disbelief. He almost thought that he was dreaming.

The woman in his arms opened her eyes in a daze. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were blurred. After recognizing him for a long time, she was like a child who had gotten candy. She was proud of her cleverness and wisdom. "You are... Mr. Mu!"

Mu Chen felt jealous when he saw that she didn't recognize him for a while and called him in such a strange way.

But seeing her drunk state, he couldn't lose his temper.

She had always been omnipotent and aggressive, but when she was drunk, she would let down her guard. She looked charming and adorable.

"Why are you here? Why did you drink so much..." Mu Chen suppressed his surging jealousy, but his tone was still stiff.

His interrogative tone made Su Ran feel even more aggrieved. "I didn't want to drink it!"

As she spoke, bean-sized tears rolled down her red eyes.

It landed on the palm of Mu Chen's hand, which was holding her cheek. It was so hot that Mu Chen felt his heart ache for Mu Chen.

"What bullshit director!" Su Ran muttered.

She was clearly cursing, yet after drinking, her tone was delicate. Even though she was already extremely resentful, she seemed like a ferocious kitten, and it was more cute than ferocious.

"What's so great about a variety show? I've already drunk three bottles in a row, but he still refuses me! What's wrong with a newcomer? Everyone is a newcomer. How do you know that He Yuzhou won't be popular!"

"When I have money in the future, I'll hire eight or ten directors to write the script according to my plan and make me happy!"

After saying that, Su Ran paused and looked up at Mu Chen in front of her. She reached out to hold his handsome face and said with a silly smile,

"Hee hee, you're so handsome. I'll make you the male lead of my play. You'll definitely become famous!" Su Ran immediately shook her head and denied it. "No, no! He Yuzhou isn't popular yet! I can't support you..."

Under the influence of alcohol, Su Ran was no longer conscious. She could still vaguely remember Mu Chen a moment ago, but now she was calling him "handsome boy".

As soon as Mu Chen heard the name of He Yuzhou, his face instinctively darkened, and he felt jealous. But when he saw Su Ran in his arms, he couldn't help smiling dotingly.

"All right, all right. I'll listen to you. I'll invest in you," Mu Chen said dotingly as he held Su Ran by her forehead.

He didn't care about the price behind this joke at all.

The president of Mu's Group would never go back on his word.

Su Ran didn't listen to him at all. Her little face suddenly twisted. She covered her mouth and pushed Mu Chen away.

"I can't take it anymore..."

Mu Chen was confused by her words. He held her up nervously and asked, "What? Do you want to throw up or something?"

"I drank too much... I want to go to the bathroom..." With a sad face, Su Ran quickly ran to the bathroom.

Mu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly followed her, fearing that something might happen to her. "I'll take you there."

At the door of the women's restroom, Mu Chen slowly let her go. After making sure that Su Ran wouldn't lose her balance and fall, he asked worriedly, "Can you do it alone?"

"No problem!" Su Ran waved her hand arrogantly and staggered in.

Leaning against the bathroom door, Mu Chen tried to recall what Su Ran had just said.

He had basically figured out the ins and outs.

Well, it was for He Yuzhou again!

Su Ran was here today to discuss a variety show for He Yuzhou, but the director of the show refused her after spending so much time drinking with her.

Although Mu Chen knew that this was Su Ran' s duty as an agent, he still gritted his teeth out of jealousy.

Such an elegant person was out of tune with the toilet, but he stood at the door of the toilet indifferently. The passers-by couldn't help but look at him.

Several women's eyes lit up and they were eager to give it a try, but when they saw that the handsome man's face was gloomy and he didn't seem to be easy to deal with, they lost their courage.

Like a marionette, Mu Chen waited at the door for a few minutes, and when he didn't see Su Ran coming out, he frowned anxiously.

Just as he was about to break into the ladies' room, Su Ran stumbled out.

She lost her balance and was about to throw herself forward to kiss the ground.

At this critical moment, Mu Chen rushed forward, grabbed her slim waist, turned around, and held her tightly in his arms.

"Why have you been gone for so long?" Mu Chen said in a slightly reproachful tone. When he saw the unknown object at the corner of her mouth, Mu Chen frowned.

"I vomited. It's so uncomfortable..." Su Ran frowned, feeling wronged.

Mu Chen helped Su Ran get a square towel from the bar counter, washed it with hot water, and pressed it on her forehead, trying to wipe her face.

However, Su Ran grabbed his wrist with her soft palm. "Don't move. My makeup will be ruined!"

Su Ran had put on professional makeup today because she was here to talk about resources and cooperation. However, after being tortured by herself, that makeup was beyond recognition now...

Looking at her embarrassed look, Mu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She's drunk, isn't she? But it was unbelievable that she can grasp these details!

Since Mu Chen didn't want to argue with the drunkard, he wiped the corner of her mouth and got her a bottle of water to rinse her mouth.

After taking care of the drunkard, Mu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

This was even more tiring than working for a whole day!

"I'll send you back."

"No! I'm not going back!" Su Ran pouted.

"Then what do you want?" Mu Chen asked helplessly.

"You're pretty good-looking, aren't you? Hee hee, do you want to warm my bed?" Su Ran was like an old pervert. She sized Mu Chen up with her lecherous eyes, lifted his chin with her fingers, and said something surprising.

Mu Chen swallowed and his eyes darkened. "Are you sure?"

"Yes! I like the pure people like you the most..." Su Ran nodded repeatedly.

Hearing this, Mu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Would this woman be like this every time when she was drunk? If it weren't for him, who would Su Ran look for today! What if she met a bad guy...

Mu Chen didn't dare to think about it. He could only hold Su Ran in his arms and say softly, "Sister, listen to me. I'll take you back."

Mu Chen felt like he was a big bad wolf who had cheated Little Red Riding Hood. He watched her lure the wolf into her house.

He had always felt that people in the business world had no bottom line, but at this moment, he still despised himself.

Especially after Su Ran nodded obediently and left with him, Mu Chen felt even more ashamed.

It took him a lot of effort to throw the drunkard, who was talking nonsense, into the passenger seat. When he was about to fasten her seat belt, he bent down and heard the woman muttering.

"Director, please give us a chance. We won't let you down."

"With He Yuzhou, your variety show will definitely become popular..."

The woman who had been teasing him with nonsense just now suddenly closed her eyes tightly at this moment. Her little face was flushed, and her eyebrows were knitted together.

Mu Chen felt sorry for her.

This silly woman, why are you working so hard? You have already been so drunk, but you still don't forget to talk about work...

After fastening the seat belt, Mu Chen turned around and leaned back. After thinking for a moment, he still couldn't stand by and watch.

Having made up his mind, Mu Chen stroked the woman's head and said softly, "Sister, wait for me here."

After getting out of the car, he gave a lot of tips and asked the receptionist beside the car to help take care of the drunkard in the car. Then he strode toward the bar.

Inside the booth.

The variety show director, Xu Xinjue, who had just rejected Su Ran, was swaying to the music while drinking.

A person suddenly barged into the booth.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, Xu Xinjue immediately got up in fear when he saw the face of the person. He asked with confusion, "Mr. Mu?"

Although Xu Xinjue had never seen Mu Chen in person, he had seen Mu Chen's face on all kinds of news. Mu Chen was comparable to a male star in the entertainment circle, who was unforgettable.

But the sudden appearance in front of him, especially in the booth of the bar made him a little uncertain.

"Hello." Mu Chen nodded.

"Why are you..." Xu Xinjue subconsciously wanted to ask, but when he saw Mu Chen, he immediately shut up.

He respectfully moved aside and cleared the seat in the middle. "Please take a seat, Mr. Mu."

"Mr. Xu?" Mu Chen raised his sword-shaped eyebrows and confirmed.

"Yes, my surname is Xu, and my name is Xinjue." Xu Xinjue didn't expect that Mu Chen could call his surname, and he was flattered.

"Mr. Xu, please have a seat." Mu Chen politely sat to the side and did not take the main seat.

"Sorry to disturb you." Mu Chen went straight to the point. "I heard that Mr. Xu is preparing for a new variety show?"

Hearing that he was coming for his variety show, Xu Xinjue was excited and hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, this is a competition program. We will invite eight guests to carry out an interesting challenge in the program..."

After listening patiently, Mu Chen asked casually, "Did an agent named Su Ran want to talk to you about joining your variety show with a newcomer?"

Xu Xinjue felt guilty and couldn't help stuttering. "Yes... yes..."

"But I heard that you refused. Can you tell me why?" Mu Chen asked calmly.

However, it made Xu Xinjue feel as if there were thorns on his back. He racked his brains and said hesitantly, "Her actor is a newcomer, and his popularity is..."

Mu Chen chuckled, picked up a glass of beer on the table, and took a sip.

"Popularity is not a problem. I believe that with the guidance of Mr. Xu, this variety show will definitely be extraordinary. At that time, as a guest, he will naturally be popular."

"Of course, I will also provide Mr. Xu with some insurance. If you have any financial difficulties on your variety show, you can ask Mu's Group for help."

Hearing the conditions offered by Mu Chen, Xu Xinjue was greatly tempted.

After hesitating for a long time, Xu Xinjue gritted his teeth and told the truth with a bitter face.

"Actually, Mr. Mu, it's not that I'm snobbish, so I didn't give Miss Su a chance."

"It's because Miss Su offended the Luoying Group. They've already told us in private that no one is allowed to give her resources."

"We're just some low-level directors. In the end, we still have to act according to the mood of the investors. The Luoying Group has already spoken. Who else dares to give Su Ran resources now?"

Xu Xinjue said in a tearful and miserable voice.

Mu Chen suddenly pulled a long face.

The Luoying Group was the company of Luo Qingwen, the father of Luo Xiaoxiao!

If Luo Xiaoxiao wanted the Luoying Group to threaten Su Ran, she must be the manipulator.

He really didn't expect that his good cousin would use this method to suppress the person he loved!

With a cold look in his eyes, Mu Chen said in a low voice, "You boldly give the resources to Su Ran, the Mu Group will hold you accountable for the consequences."
