Chapter 868 The 'Dummy' Who Refused to Be Bound for a Lifetime (6)
Mu Zhou was still a little dizzy when he got up, but when he touched his cold forehead, he felt that his fever had gone down.
After washing up, she prepared to eat.
To his surprise, as soon as he arrived at the cafeteria, he saw someone secretly staring at him.
She looked at her makeup with a puzzled expression.
Nothing special...
As soon as she sat down, Xiao Li, carrying a tray, sat opposite her and said mysteriously:
Have you seen the trending topics?
Seeing Mu Zhou shake her head blankly, she took out her phone and placed it in front of her.
"The video of you and Young Master Shen went viral, even overshadowing Han Ke's cheating scandal."
It turns out that not many people actually watched last night's live stream.
Especially since they were caught without filming anything, the few people remaining in the live stream were already preparing to leave.
But in those last few seconds, Shen Junchuan's face flashed by and instantly captivated them.
Someone recorded the screen beforehand and, after repeatedly replaying it, confirmed that it was indeed Shen Junchuan.
After all, his face is really conspicuous.
His appearance was unexpected, but the important thing is...
He was holding a woman in his arms.
Only half of the woman's face could be seen, but even in the blurry image, her delicate facial features were still discernible.
The replay of the live stream quickly sparked heated discussions after it was released.
Shen Junchuan was already a top celebrity in the entertainment industry, and his every move was under scrutiny.
This kind of rumored relationship between a man and a woman has directly ignited a firestorm on the internet.
Needless to say, Shen Junchuan's fans dug up all the information Mu Zhou could find in one night.
She was linked to the guitar-playing and singing girl who had recently become a minor internet sensation.
After comparison, it was confirmed that it was the same person.
Meanwhile, some people recognized that Mu Zhou's clothes were the receptionist uniform of Heming Manor.
For a time, rumors about Shen Junchuan's secret relationship spread like wildfire.
[This is truly a series of juicy gossips; we didn't get a shot of Han Ke, but we unexpectedly got a shot of Young Master Shen.]
So, last night, Mr. Shen went to pick up his girlfriend, but encountered an accident, leading to a dramatic scene of him fiercely protecting his wife?
[They're such a good-looking couple, I'm already shipping them!]
[Please stop spreading rumors. I believe Mr. Shen was simply being helpful and happened to be passing by when he rescued a staff member. Please stop spreading these rumors.]
I also think it was just an accident.
Shen Junchuan was just being kind; that guitar-playing girl is an internet celebrity who's deliberately trying to gain attention.
[This guitar-playing girl isn't an internet celebrity at all; she doesn't even have an account!]
[Wait a minute, in the past, when there were rumors, Mr. Shen's company would always deny them immediately. It's almost noon, and both the agency and his personal accounts are still silent. This means...]
[This statement is true!!]
Shen Junchuan has the handsome face of a dashing playboy, but in reality, he keeps people at arm's length.
Women are rarely seen around him.
Anyone who tries to create a romantic pairing with him will be immediately denied and exposed as a fraud.
This time, however, he remained silent, contrary to his usual behavior, and his attitude was somewhat ambiguous.
[Even more explosive news has arrived! Rumor has it that Heming Manor is owned by Young Master Shen, and he specially arranged for his girlfriend to stay there for convenient meetings—a veritable golden cage for keeping her!]
[Suddenly I remembered that when the guitar-playing girl became popular a while ago, all her videos were suddenly taken down from the internet...]
[I remember it too. I thought it was strange at the time, but now that I think about it, could it have been Shen Junchuan who did it, to prevent people from discovering their relationship?]
According to everyone's reasoning, the relationship between the two is already a done deal.
Mu Zhou read it all, his gaze sweeping over the image of them embracing.
Shen Junchuan was tall and imposing; when he held Mu Zhou, he almost completely enveloped her.
He grabbed her waist with one hand.
Her large palms and slender waist create a striking contrast that makes one blush and their heart race.
At first glance, it certainly has a great atmosphere.
Mu Zhou withdrew his gaze:
"It's all a misunderstanding. Young Master Shen should be able to handle it."
She paused for a moment, thinking of the phone call she had just received.
No wonder Song Huaizhi took the initiative to call.
Her eyes flickered slightly, and she continued eating.
Seeing her so calm, Xiao Li's initially excited and gossipy heart calmed down:
"That's true. With such high popularity, Young Master Shen can't just ignore it."
She put her phone away, but couldn't help feeling envious.
"But that's Young Master Shen. To be honest, his hug really made me feel safe."
Mu Zhou smiled faintly and remained silent.
Xiao Li didn't think much of it. She was there last night and knew the situation was unusual, so no one reacted immediately.
Those so-called deductions online are just for fun and to stir up trouble.
But that didn't stop her from watching those few seconds of video more than a dozen times.
The more you look at it, the more atmospheric it becomes.

After the meal, the two returned to the front desk together.
As soon as he stood still, the manager called Mu Zhou away.
"Mu Zhou, come with me for a moment."
The two stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the 26th floor.
Mu Zhou was somewhat puzzled:
"Manager, where are we going?"
"Mr. Shen wants to talk to you, but I don't know exactly what we'll talk about."
The manager gave a cautious reply.
Shen Junchuan? What does he want with me?
With questions in mind, Mu Zhou quickly arrived at the 26th floor.
This floor is not open to the public; at first glance, it looks like a private residence.
As you walk along, you'll find a wine cellar, a gym, and a living room balcony.
The decor on this floor is also quite unique.
The precious artworks displayed around the room may seem random, but they are actually very elaborate.
Everyone says that Shen Junchuan is a perfectionist with high aesthetic standards.
Now it seems that this is indeed the case.
However, he does have a very good eye.
Mu Zhou admired it silently.
At the very back is a bedroom, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of it.
The manager left quietly.
Mu Zhou glanced around, and just as he was wondering what was going on, a lazy voice came from behind him:
"What to drink?"
Mu Zhou's heart skipped a beat. He turned around and saw Shen Junchuan coming out of the bathroom.
He was wearing a black bathrobe, the collar of which was slightly open, and his hair was damp.
It added a touch of sexiness to his aloof and noble image.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Shen Junchuan walked to the bar and got two glasses of soda water.
"Iced lemon soda?"
"……Can."
Mu Zhou nodded.
He walked over and placed it on the table:
"sit."
The two sat facing each other on the sofa.
"Mr. Shen, is there something you need from me?"
Shen Junchuan took a sip of soda water, leaned back, his face seemingly serious, but his demeanor revealed an undisguised languor.
"You saw it trending?"
"I saw it."
Shen Junchuan's gaze fell on her.
She was still wearing that black work uniform.
The work uniform was something he specifically requested, designed by one of the world's top designers.
Even the lowest-level employees at his resort are expected to achieve perfection.
The work clothes looked as if they were tailor-made for her.
It suits her very well.
Shen Junchuan drew a conclusion.
She sat there with her back straight, looking as proper as a good student waiting to be scolded by the teacher.
Was she like this in front of Song Huaizhi?
Shen Junchuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he suddenly spoke:
"I will not clarify."
"……what?"
Shen Junchuan stared at her and answered, word by word:
"I'll tacitly accept the rumors."
Mu Zhou's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes gradually widened:
"why?"
