Chapter 244 The Most Eye-catching Couple
Mu Zhi stood rooted to the ground. She stared at him for a long moment before saying, “What are you
doing here?”
“They say you’re livestreaming your heart-wrenching journey to find me.”
Lu Jinye laughed gently as he approached Mu Zhi and brought her into his embrace.
Mu Zhi raised her head to look up at Lu Jinye. “Let me go, they’re watching.”
“Aren’t you ready to announce your life to the world by going on a livestream? We shall start with our
lovey-dovey.”
Mu Zhi’s face flushed red. She stopped fighting back.
After leaving the building, Lu Jinye and Mu Zhi did not take the car. Instead, they started wandering on
the streets. Mu Zhi could feel an unprecedented relief, perhaps due to offloading all the stress she had
been shouldering all these years.
Lu Jinye wandered next to Mu Zhi, and before they realized it, they found themselves at a night market.
Mu Zhi was intrigued. “Care to take a stroll inside?”
Seeing that Mu Zhi was excited, Lu Jinye blissfully obliged. He followed behind Mu Zhi as they slowly
headed into the market.
The night market was crowded with college students. Mu Zhi was famished. Noticing the stir-fried
noodles store ahead, she strode towards it to order a serve of fried noodles.
“Sir, one serve of fried noodles, please!” Mu Zhi shouted at the owner.
There was a concoction of various types of noises at the market. Everyone was clamoring zealously.
Mu Zhi needed to shout to make herself clear to the owner.
Meanwhile, Lu Jinye had his gaze locked on Mu Zhi. She was exceptionally captivating when she was
yelling at the top of her lungs amongst the crowd.
“Got it!”
The owner responded spontaneously. He turned his face to Mu Zhi while maneuvering the wok skilfully
to incorporate the wok-hay into every piece of noodle.
But as he took a closer look, he uttered, “Hey, aren’t you Miss Mu Zhi?”
Mu Zhi was astounded upon listening to his words. She was prepared to flee the scene, thinking that
he was Xiao Qingqing’s fan or one of the haters on the internet.

But before she could go anywhere, a pair of couple scoffing down noodles at the side turned their faces
to Mu Zhi.
Mu Zhi raised a hand over her face in a poor attempt to cover it. On the other hand, Lu Jinye was
waiting for her like a charming prince.
Then, the girl suddenly shouted, “Wow, it’s Lu Jinye and Mu Zhi!”
“Lu Jinye is so hot, Mu Zhi is such a beautiful woman. They are the one true pair.”
“Oh heavens, Mu Zhi was way prettier than she looked in the livestream. I can’t believe she would eat
fried noodles like an ordinary folk!”
“This is what true couples look like, unlike the pretentious ones on the internet!”
Mu Zhi was hanging her head in the beginning. But hearing the flurry of praises falling into her ears,
she could not resist looking up, and instead of finding spiteful gazes, all she could see was good-
natured and encouraging eyes.
That’s weird.
Mu Zhi gawked at the sight. It wasn’t until she felt the fried noodles’ warmth that she came back to her
senses. She hastily received it with gratitude.
Everyone was kind to her.
She put a mouthful of fried noodles into her mouth, and her taste buds rejoiced in distinct pleasure.
Then, she gradually moved towards Lu Jinye with every pair of eyes locked on her.
“Lu Jinye, did you see it?”
Mu Zhi asked Lu Jinye with a shocked expression.
Meanwhile, Lu Jinye was looking back at her with an encouraging smile.
Slowly, the two of them made it to the end of the night market. Mu Zhi had finished the fried noodles
when her brain managed to process the information. She giggled uncontrollably.
It was the first time she did not receive hatred and anger. On the contrary, the crowd was zealous to
her. The feeling was indescribably good.
When they arrived at home, Mu Zhi had the best sleep in many days.
The second morning, by the time Mu Zhi woke up, she was on every single news channel and social
media headlines.
‘Mu Zhi describing her love journey with Lu Jinye.’
‘The one true pair indulging fried noodles at the night market!’
‘The most beautiful love story one could ever imagine!’
Positive headlines flooded the internet.
Besides, numerous users of the internet were petitioning for the Mrs. Chairman to go on another
livestream!
Everyone was eager to see the unpretentious Mu Zhi!
There were even people who started a movement called ‘We owe Mu Zhi an apology’.
In the course of a night… The internet completely overturned their opinions on Mu Zhi.
Mu Zhi received a call when she woke up. She had not yet shaken off her grogginess when Director
Yiwen’s excited voice came from the phone.
“Miss Mu, are you awake? Do you think you can make your way to the company?”
Mu Zhi gaped her eyes with a start, and anxiously, she answered, “S-sure.”
Then, it dawned on her that she had no clue what was happening. “What happened? Did something
wrong happen since my livestream yesterday?” She asked hastily.
Nothing’s wrong. In fact, everything’s right. So we need you here to discuss our way forward.”
Mu Zhi sighed in relief and obliged.
When she got to the company, she received a series of livestreaming schedule from the brass.
However, Mu Zhi’s big day was just around the corner, so she could not fork out time for livestreaming.
In the end, the executives decided to embark on the most unpretentious reality show one could ever
imagine. They assigned a personal assistant to Mu Zhi to follow her around while streaming her daily
routine on the internet.
There were six days until their wedding day.
Mu Zhi spent the first day on pre-wedding photo shooting with Lu Jinye. An ordinary couple would take
a series of pictures with the backdrop in a studio.
But Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye traveled across six countries in a day to take six different styles of photos.
The hottest search on the internet of the day was, ‘A pre-wedding photoshoot experience one can
dream but can never realize.’
The following day, Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye went for a sumptuous dinner where Lu Jinye ordered the
vintage Cote De Boeuf steak, which came to ten thousand for a serve. Users of the internet gasped,
‘Absurd!’
However, the users were not alone because Mu Zhi shared the same opinion.
She too, thought that Lu Jinye was ludicrous.
It was completely unnecessary to splurge that much on a piece of meat.
Mu Zhi’s behavior would resonate with her audience. As a result, everyone had deduced that Lu Jinye
was doting Mu Zhi just to fulfill the audience’s curiosity.
They were crowned king and queen of the internet. Everyone was attracted to the couple, and Mu Zhi
became the most famous uprising celebrity.
Countless movie producers had started to engage with Mu Zhi with a movie script, hoping that she
could collaborate with them in shooting a movie.
Unfortunately… Mu Zhi’s big day was coming up.
There was even a popular request for Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye to put their wedding on livestream. In return,
the company was diligently working to satisfy the request.
Lu Jinye was not bothered by this. As an investor, he understood that popularity was directly correlated
to profit in the entertainment world. Besides, he was glad that it was a stepping stone for Mu Zhi’s
career.
As their big day was gradually approaching, Mu Zhi became increasingly perturbed for some reason.
…
Meanwhile, Xiao Qingqing was peeved by the sight of the headlines on the internet. She turned on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTV only to find the same recurring news that was soring to her eyes.
No way, I can’t hold it anymore.
She was preparing to unveil her schemes on the day of Lu Jinye and Mu Zhi’s wedding, but her
patience was running thin.
At that thought, she first gave Mu Xianyong a call and told him, “Call Master Lu today and ask him out!”
“Is this coming from you or Mr. Xie?”
Mu Xianyong asked doubtfully.
However, Xiao Qingqing bellowed grumpily, “Cut your nonsense!”
