Chapter 869 The 'Dummy' Who Refused to Be Bound for a Lifetime (7)

Shen Junchuan was born into wealth and privilege, and he was at the center of power on both his mother's and father's sides.

Therefore, he rarely explained why he lived his life.

He only needs to make decisions; others always have to cooperate with him.

So when Mu Zhou asked "why," his eyes flickered, and he looked up at her.

Her small face was adorned with delicate makeup, and her cheeks were flushed with a light pink hue, whether from the heat or from applying blush.

His brows furrowed slightly, and his upturned eyes revealed a strong sense of disapproval.

Faced with his scrutiny, Mu Zhou did not flinch, but stared straight at him.

Shen Junchuan put down the soda water and spoke expressionlessly:

“I am the largest shareholder behind Han Ke’s agency, and I have also invested in his upcoming movie and several other works. I cannot afford to let his career collapse now.”

Once his infidelity is confirmed, his only option left is to leave the entertainment industry.

All the works that hadn't even been released yet were wasted.

Last night, Han Ke reached an agreement with his wife to transfer all his assets to his wife and daughter.

His wife cooperated with him in denying the affair and publicly chose to believe him.

They will formally divorce two years later.

The mistress was given a sum of money to be sent abroad in exchange for ensuring she wouldn't say a word.

Shen Junchuan, a shrewd businessman, decided to go with the flow after discovering that his scandalous affair had overshadowed Han Ke's cheating scandal.

Mu Zhou pursed his lips in dissatisfaction after hearing this.

It's really unfair that a cheating man can get so much protection from so many people.

Most importantly, why should I get involved with her?

What does this have to do with her?

She thought this way, and that's what she said.

Shen Junchuan smiled, but his lips were somewhat cold.

"The company only needs to protect him for the time being."

The initial investment in promoting him was too large, so they had to recoup their costs.

Once his usefulness is over, he will only suffer an even more terrible death.

Mu Zhou gleaned a hint of meaning from his words and roughly understood, but...

Ultimately, it all comes down to their interests, and has nothing to do with her, so she has to refuse right away.

"I……"

"Of course, I won't treat you unfairly either."

Mu Zhou swallowed the refusal that was on the tip of his tongue.

Seeing that her attitude had softened, Shen Junchuan said:

"Ten million, plus an apartment in Ruan Nan Yuan in the city center."

Shen Junchuan couldn't find out much about the Song family, but he already knew what Mu Zhou had said during his job interview.

Since Mu Zhou has moved out on his own and seems determined to be self-reliant from now on, what he lacks most must be money and a place to live.

His suggestion hit Mu Zhou's weak spot perfectly.

In the past, Song Huaizhi's fiancée would naturally have looked down on such things.

But now, Mu Zhou was deeply moved.

Ruan Nanyuan's house is the most expensive building in recent years. What troubles could she possibly have living there? Besides, she has ten million yuan, enough to ensure she'll be well-off for the rest of her life.

However, that's not enough.

Mu Zhou clenched his fist, as if to encourage himself:

“Mr. Shen, I can cooperate, but I have one more request.”

"explain."

Shen Junchuan looked at her with a leisurely air.

After considering for a moment, Mu Zhou spoke:

"Can your agency sign me?"

After she finished speaking, Shen Junchuan fell silent, staring at her with a complicated expression.

Once he opened his mouth, Mu Zhou had no more reservations:

“I have many original works. One of my original songs, which I sang and played myself, was briefly popular online. I believe that signing me will not be a bad deal for you.”

Mu Zhou knew that her request was somewhat unreasonable.

Shen Junchuan's agency only has him as an artist. Suddenly signing a female artist, who has a rumored relationship with him, is bound to cause a huge uproar.

But Mu Zhou felt that this request was not excessive.

Shen Junchuan used her to suppress Han Ke's scandal, so what's wrong with her using Shen Junchuan's fame to pave the way for herself?

Thinking about it this way, she felt more confident.

Besides, if he really disagrees, then forget it.

Anyway, with the money he gave her, she could just release her own songs online and become an independent musician.

She was prepared to be rejected, but to her surprise, Shen Junchuan agreed.

"Okay, I'll have my agent contact you."

He had a smile on his lips, and looked like a humble and polite young nobleman.

But Mu Zhou knew that Shen Junchuan's temper was never the mild type.

However, since he was so agreeable, Mu Zhou naturally cooperated as well:

"So what do I need to do?"

"No need, just keep quiet about your relationship."

After finishing their business, Mu Zhou prepared to leave.

The air conditioning in the room was so strong that it made her shiver uncontrollably, and she had to force herself to stay warm.

If I keep sitting like this, my head will start to hurt more and more.

Whether it was due to excessive stress or the cold that made her dizzy, she felt so faint when she stood up that she could barely stand.

Shen Junchuan, who had somehow appeared behind her, steadied her and prevented her from falling.

She blinked hard to clear her mind, and without turning her head, said:

"Thank you."

Then I forced myself to leave.

Shen Junchuan lowered his eyes and glanced at his palm.

Just now, before that hand touched her shoulder, it unintentionally brushed against the back of her neck.

Her skin was burning hot.

On the other side, Mu Zhou's legs were weak and her breathing was a little rapid. She felt a little confused and wanted to go back as soon as possible.

She walked slowly, supporting herself against the wall, and before she reached the elevator, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

The next second, she fell into someone's arms.

"you are sick?"

A deep, resonant voice sounded in my ear.

The last bit of strength that Mu Zhou had been holding on for dissipated, and his legs went weak, and he was about to collapse.

The scene before her eyes spun around her as she was lifted up horizontally in someone's arms.

Mu Zhou's eyes were half-closed, and from her angle, all that could be seen was her delicate and sharp jawline.

Then everything went dark.

*

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Zhou finally woke up.

When I opened my eyes, the ceiling was a uniquely designed and magnificent chandelier.

The thin blanket covering her was made of navy blue silk, light and soft, perfect for an air-conditioned room.

However, the air conditioning was not on in the room at that time.

This is not a hospital.

It took her a while to realize that she was still with Shen Junchuan.

I raised my hand, and a sharp pain shot through the back of my hand.

Mu Zhou then realized that he was receiving an IV drip again.

The door was opened.

Shen Junchuan had changed out of his bathrobe and was now wearing black trousers and a black shirt.

He was expressionless, his demeanor even colder than before.

You could even vaguely see a hint of impatience.

During his years in the Song family, Mu Zhou learned best how to read people's expressions and moods.

Realizing that Shen Junchuan's displeasure was likely because of her, she quickly sat up.

Fortunately, the fever reducer had worked, and she felt much better and was less prone to dizziness.

She threw back the covers and was about to get out of bed to get the IV fluids hanging by the bedside.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, I'll go back to my dorm for an IV drip right away."

She had just taken the medicine bottle down when Shen Junchuan came up behind her and put it back down with her hand.

He pressed down on Mu Zhou's shoulder, making her sit back on the bed.
