Xinran and Jerry sat in a café on the corner for the entire afternoon. During this time, Xinran remained silent, simply staring at the brown liquid in her cup, lost in her thoughts.
"From the looks of it, if you want to leave here, it seems you'll have to go through a battle!" Jerry casually turned his head and suddenly noticed a large group of paparazzi lingering at the café entrance. He jokingly remarked to Xinran.
Following Jerry's gaze, Xinran smiled lightly. "I thought I was no longer in demand. To them, I'm just someone who's been shelved. How could I still occupy a few headlines?"
"That depends on what they ask you. If it's pity or mockery, that can also attract attention..." After finishing the last sip of his coffee, Jerry looked at Xinran.
"Let's go see the commotion!" With that, Xinran stood up and walked towards the door.
Pushing open the glass door of the café, Xinran continued walking forward. She expected to be stopped by the paparazzi, but instead, they parted to create a path wide enough for her and Jerry to pass through. This unexpected situation caught Xinran off guard. If the paparazzi weren't there to interview her, why were they watching her so intently?
After walking a distance, the paparazzi still followed closely behind. Xinran furrowed her brows and stopped, turning back to address them. "Everyone, what are you here for today? I'm heading home now. You don't expect to follow me back for a cup of coffee, do you? I doubt my coffee can accommodate so many of you!"
"Summer, we received news that someone has information about you that they want to share with us, and the location is right here."
Upon hearing this from the paparazzi, Xinran raised an eyebrow, intrigued. At this moment, who could possibly have information about her? What secrets did she still have worth revealing? She had been married and divorced; however, she believed no one would dare to disclose such matters. Besides, very few people knew about it, and Mu Shaosi's identity was itself a secret. Not many were aware that he was the president of Qingtian Group; how could anyone know that he was once married to her?
"Can I know who this person is?" As she spoke, Xinran noticed that all the paparazzi's gazes suddenly shifted in the same direction...
Turning back in confusion, Xinran froze in place.
A large group, truly a large group of men in black, walked towards her in an orderly fashion. Leading the way were three extremely handsome men, each with a different demeanor: one was cold, another unruly, and the last one cynical. They were none other than Xinran's familiar figures, Mukai Hisashi, Duan Ruyin, and Shirakawa Fuji.
A sense of foreboding suddenly surged in Xinran's heart. Before she could even turn to leave, she saw them stop and bow deeply to her.
"Future Lady, we are here at Young Master's command to invite you back home! Young Master said that you are carrying his child, and he will take better care of you by your side. Please do not leave home out of momentary anger!" they spoke in unison, creating an indescribable spectacle.
Upon hearing this, the paparazzi became lively, grabbing their microphones and cameras to snap pictures of Xinran and the men, fearing they might miss any moment. Even passersby stopped curiously to watch, thinking it was some kind of idol drama being filmed.
"Duan Ruyin, enough already!" In the midst of this noisy atmosphere, Xinran, the protagonist, was trembling with anger. She never expected Mu Shaosi would resort to such a tactic, gathering so many people at this street corner. What was he trying to do?
"Future Lady, Young Master said he knows he was wrong and will devote his heart to you and the child from now on. He promises to cherish you for a lifetime. Please consider the child's sake and return to Young Master!" Duan Ruyin stepped forward and spoke loudly.
"Future Lady, please believe that Young Master is sincere towards you. He is willing to spend a lifetime proving his feelings for you!" Mukai Hisashi, who had been wearing sunglasses all along, also chimed in.
"I just want to kill him right now!" Xinran shouted angrily, nearly jumping up and down.
