Flash Marriage with a Mysterious Man

"Hello!" Mu Keren took the business card with both hands and gave Xia Houjia a pursed lip smile, "Is there something you need?"

When she took the business card, Mu Keren had swiftly glanced over it. This Xia Houjia was an agent from a company called Yingxiang Media.

Yingxiang Media had quite a reputation. Back in Beilingzhou, Mu Keren had heard of the company, which had also made a lot of stars famous. These included Zhou Lunlun, who was currently active in the music industry, and Yang Mimi, who was active on television screens, both artists under Yingxiang Media.

"It's like this. I observed that Miss Mu's image is clean and pure, which perfectly fits the criteria we're looking for in a group of new talents we're planning to promote. Therefore, we would like to invite Miss Mu to join Yingxiang Media, and I wonder what Miss Mu thinks?"

Xia Houjia's words left Mu Keren slightly stunned. Being discovered by a talent scout on the street and then becoming a nationally sought-after superstar was indeed a dream many people had as children.

Mu Keren was among those dreamers, but later, her father Mu Weidong's words made her give up her dream of becoming a star.

But now, her once far-fetched daydream seemed to be coming true, and the one discovering her was none other than the well-reputed Yingxiang Media. At this moment, it would be an outright lie to say Mu Keren wasn't moved.

However, considering her father, Mu Keren could only shake her head.

"Sorry, I currently have no plans to pursue a career in this industry!" she said, preparing to give the business card back to Xia Houjia.

But as she handed it back, Xia Houjia pushed it back to her.

Just now, Xia Houjia had observed all of Mu Keren's emotions that had flickered across her face.

So, she had no intention of taking the business card back.

"Miss Mu, you may not want to enter the industry now, but who knows about the future? Keep the business card for the time being. It's not too late to give me a call when you've thought it over..."

In the end, persuaded by Xia Houjia, Mu Keren placed the business card into her bag before leaving.

At that time, Mu Keren did not realize that by accepting this business card, her life's trajectory would thus deviate...

The chance meeting between Mu Keren and La Chuan was somewhat accidental.

That day, she had just received a call from another company inviting her to an interview, so she quickly got herself ready and hurried down from Huang Qingtian's apartment.

Not familiar with the surrounding roads, Mu Keren had to rely on hailing a taxi.

But standing on the roadside, Mu Keren waved her hand several times without success in flagging down a cab. Instead, a private car stopped in front of her.

As the silver-gray BMW came to a halt, the car window covered with reflective film gradually lowered, revealing a languidly beautiful and handsome face.

"Keren, what are you doing here?" La Chuan, upon seeing Mu Keren, curved his crimson lips into a pleasant arc. In his black eyes, contentment and joy were swirling.

If it were before, Mu Keren might have been as happy as a little bird when she saw La Chuan smile at her like this.

But after witnessing him and another woman together, seeing those black eyes filled with affection made her feel they were nothing but hypocritical.

"That's none of your business!" She had barely finished speaking when she began to stride forward, forcing herself not to look at La Chuan's eyes and brows.

The human heart, after all, is not a machine; some feelings can't be switched off just because you want them to stop. For Mu Keren, La Chuan was a lover she had cherished for three years. How could she simply cut off such emotions just because she wanted to?

All she could do was flee quickly from him. Not to look, not to think, then thoughts would break off, right?

It seemed as if La Chuan was deliberately opposing Mu Keren. When she desperately tried to avoid him, he followed her closely.

"Keren, what's wrong?" La Chuan didn't understand. How could the girl who had just been telling him over the phone how much she missed him turn away upon seeing him?

With his long legs, La Chuan quickly caught up with Mu Keren and pulled her back to his side.

"Keren, what is really going on? Sweetheart, stop making a fuss!"

As usual, his charming voice held the power to soothe her. But what followed was a sourness at the tip of her nose.

"La Chuan, enough. Stop being so hypocritical, aren't you tired? It's exhausting just watching you…" Her normally sweet voice suddenly became hoarse.

Having witnessed firsthand how intense their "fight" had been, the reassurances La Chuan offered afterward were destined to be in vain.

Had she not seen that fierce scene with her own eyes, Mu Keren would never have known that the elegant and graceful La Chuan could also have such a wild side…

Thinking about how the large hands now clinging to her had once been on another woman, Mu Keren felt so sick that the force with which she shook off La Chuan's grip was unprecedentedly strong.

As a result, this elegant and graceful gentleman was so caught off guard that he fell over!

"Keren, what are you doing?" After quickly getting up from the ground, La Chuan looked around swiftly. Seeing that no one around had witnessed his fall, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm making a fuss? La Chuan, aren't you the one speaking backwards? Before saying that, shouldn't you ask yourself what you have done?"

The word "making a fuss," uttered by La Chuan, seemed to instantly enrage Mu Keren. Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped him without any mercy.

At the moment that the clear slap resounded, La Chuan just froze on the spot.

It could be said that during the three years they had been in love, they had never had such a heated and red-faced argument.

She was always gentle, like a lamb. Except for matters of the bed, she typically did as he said.

What could have happened to provoke such a strong reaction from her? Even to the point of making the normally docile lamb strike him.

Covering his aching cheek, La Chuan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes shifted.

And watching him was Mu Keren, whose lips curled into a mocking sneer at that moment.

In almost an instant, La Chuan was almost certain that Mu Keren knew about his affair with Xuan Ling.

"Keren, about her and I…" After pondering for a moment, he began to speak, parting his thin lips to say something.

La Chuan's skin was very pale, which made the slap Mu Keren left on his face look particularly vicious.

"No need to describe to me what happened between you and her, I'm not interested in knowing!" She said this, but her heart felt as if it was being punctured by thousands of needles all at once.

"No wonder people always say you shouldn't feed a dog too much or be too nice to a person!" Her words thrown out again left La Chuan staring at her with a particularly astonished look.

In the three years they had been in love, he had never heard her utter any swear words. But today, she swore at him!

However, he quickly felt that Mu Keren was just overly emotional, which had led to her current state, and he tried to reach out to comfort her.

But before his hand could touch Mu Keren, the once-docile girl actually raised her foot towards him…
