Qi Lei shot Xi Xinyi a look through narrowed eyes while the corner of his lips curved into a sly smile . He then took the phone on the table and made a call .
Xi Xinyi's charming face then flashed with a smile . “Master Qi, don't worry . Yueying is my property, so no matter what, I won't ruin my own reputation . As long as the new movie is released in the box office, Yueying's crisis will truly be resolved . These two movies are the most anticipated releases from our company, so we can't halt them . ”
Xi Xinyi was practically hoping for these few movies to make her comeback . Previously, because of the Han Corporation's support and Glory World as well as Qi Kai's participation, they wanted to use their strength and start shooting a few movies at one go . They were looking forward to getting the highest ticket sales at the box office with these few movies to make up for Yueying's financial loopholes . However, who would've expected the things that happened one after another afterward, causing their downfall?
Xi Xinyi even vaguely felt that inexplicably, there seemed to be a string guiding her path, but she could not put her finger on what it was . She could only contemplate that these thoughts were a result of her being too sensitive .
“I'll wait for you to show some sort of results to prove your decisions today then . ” Qi Lei was quite calm as he smiled faintly at Xi Xinyi .
“I'm confident in myself!” Xi Xinyi straightened up too .
Yueying readjusted internally . Since they now had Qi Kai's resources for support, Qi Kai themselves signed on a lot of huge celebrities . She could completely rely on Qi Kai's strength to achieve her own plans!
Xi Xinyi soon vanished out of the door and Qi Lei's expression turned cold in an instant . He then huffed before his hand balled up tightly .
Upon returning to City Z, Wang Hui and the rest returned straight to the Mu residence . They still had a lot of things to do the next day . They also thought that they should give Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye a little privacy as newlyweds, so they were not willing to disturb them at the Maple Residence either . Zhou Zimo and Su Chen went straight home too, not wanting to be light bulbs .
When they returned to the Maple Residence, it was close to evening . What shocked Xi Xiaye was the fact that the Maple Residence had been given a simple redecoration . Some furniture had been changed to new ones, and there were beautiful flower ribbons hanging from the ceiling of the living room . It was decorated the way their bridal chamber was .
Even the railings along the staircase were decorated with blossoming champagne roses . Xi Xiaye had just stepped into the living room when this heartwarming and harmonious scene, which was the work of Sis Wang and the rest, greeted her .
Dishes and drinks were prepared and on the dining table in preparation for a candlelight dinner .
“Congratulations on your marriage, Master, Missus!” Sis Wang's voice suddenly came from behind .
Xi Xiaye subconsciously turned around and realized that Sis Wang and the Maple Residence servants were beaming behind them . All of them held presents that they then gave to Xi Xiaye .
“Thank you!”
Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen exchanged a look . Then, they smiled and thanked everyone as they accepted the gifts gratefully .
“Master, Missus, dinner's ready . You've had such a long flight, so you must be quite tired . Have something to eat first, then shower and rest earlier . You have your wedding banquet tomorrow! We'll go home now!” Sis Wang fussed .
Xi Xiaye nodded . “Okay, just remember to come to our wedding banquet tomorrow . ”
“I'm so tired . I can't muster even a hint of energy . ”
She walked to the sofa in the living room before throwing herself onto the soft couch . She lay down all floppy and muttered, “This wedding is really quite troublesome . ”
“Some beautiful memories require sacrifice . ”
Mu Yuchen handed her a warm and wet towel which she took to wipe her hands . Then, suddenly there was a gentle touch on her shoulders . She subconsciously turned and noticed that the man was gently holding her shoulders . He then started to gently massage them and she moaned in sheer pleasure .
“Where did you learn how to massage? It's quite good,” Xi Xiaye just closed her eyes and spoke with maximum enjoyment .
“Your husband is innately talented and self-taught . Consider yourself lucky . I don't serve just anyone . ” He chuckled, then took a bolster before stuffing it to her, letting her comfortably lie on her belly before quietly continuing .
“I've never seen a person who felt more good about themselves than you, but I'm not the average person either . I am now your Missus Mu . Can you compare the average person to me? That's just lowering your standards and insulting yourself . They say that a man's quality and presence is actually presented through his woman . If you're good to me, that means you are a wise and good man . They all say that the successful ones who are cultivated and have high quality are usually very good to their wives . Look at Grandfather and Grandmother, and Father and Mother? Isn't that so?” she said very calmly .
As Mu Yuchen listened, he suddenly laughed involuntarily . “What logic? This is nonsense!”
Xi Xiaye shrugged to disagree . “How can you say it's nonsense? Didn't I just give you examples? She continued rather justifiably, “However, I do quite like you being self-confident and in high spirits . A good man would be more confident, so you can continue being arrogant . ”
“Continue being arrogant? Well then, Missus, what kind of man is considered a good man to you or someone who can be your husband?”
They rarely sat down leisurely for idle chat, so Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye were both feeling quite relaxed .
“Mmm… How do I say this? I think that this opinion would change with phases . Had it been before, I would've hoped that someone would console me and keep persisting with me, but now that I've gone through so much more, I suddenly find that Mother is actually right . I think that a husband and wife should be the kind of friends who speak without holding back . They have to play many roles like being a father, a brother, a teacher or a friend . Those are all the forms of a good husband . Su Nan says I'm really lucky that I managed to get you . Well, now that you've married me, do you think that you've been cheated or did you got lucky?”
She turned to look at him a little grouchily, her starry eyes challenging him .
“Of course, I got lucky . Do I look like someone who would make a bad business deal?” Mu Yuchen answered confidently without a doubt .
She then nodded, satisfied . “I think you got lucky and profited too . This matches your innate nature as a profiteer more, but I think I got lucky too . ”
“Missus, managing marriage is actually like managing a business . Of course, it'd be best to have a win-win situation . Just like how you told me before, I personally think that whether or not we consider marriage, one would need to first consider whether you'd be happier after marriage . If you're much better off than before, then that means the decision to get married is the right one . ”
