Young Master Qin Keeps Coveting Me After I Beat Him Up

Chapter 82: Why Do You Suddenly Care?

She thought of the cold look on his face when he’d misunderstood her intentions back at Jiang Yuexi’s birthday party, then of the look on his face when he found out later that he had misunderstood her and had to carefully apologize to her every time he saw her.

There was also the look on his face when he’d given her a helpless smile and begged her not to ignore him in the future.

There was also the image of him helping her out time and time again.

“Mr. Wang.” Jiang Xun held her chest, feeling a little odd. Her voice became a little hoarse. “Do you have Mr. Qin Mufeng’s contact information?”

Yicheng asked in shock, “You actually don’t have CEO Qin’s contact information?”

What was going on with these two people?! Since Qin Mufeng was so attentive towards Jiang Xun, he was under the impression that the president was still in the midst of pursuing Jiang Xun!

But he never expected Qin Mufeng to not even have her contact information! If Mufeng had her contact information, then why wouldn’t he contact her? And if Qin Mufeng were to contact Jiang Xun, how could she not have his contact information?

Yicheng thought that his train of thought was quite sound!

Jiang Xun was silent for a few seconds. “...Am I supposed to have it?”

However, thinking about it, she had run into Mufeng a few times in a short period. It was just that she never thought to ask him for his contact details because Mufeng had misunderstood her as having ill intentions toward him.

If she took the initiative to ask Mufeng for his contact details, she didn’t know what kind of misunderstanding that man’s brain would conjure up.

When faced with Jiang Xun’s question, Yicheng could only say, “I have it. I’ll send you President Wang’s number in a bit.”

“And one more thing,” Yicheng said immediately, “Feng Videos has collaborated with Donghua TV Station on a grand escape variety show called ‘Accelerated Flight.’ The director saw a clip of your marathon running livestream and the video of you running around the city catching thieves. He thinks you’re quite suitable for this variety show. Are you interested in joining?”

“Feng Videos is one of China’s three major video platforms. Donghua TV station is also one of the biggest TV stations. “If you join this variety show, if the effect is good, it can be your stepping stone to the entertainment industry,” Yicheng said to Jiang Xun.

“But isn’t this variety show always looking for celebrities? Why would they want to get an internet celebrity like me?” she asked curiously.

“Well, the aim of the variety show is to invite guests from all walks of life in society. It’s not just limited to celebrities. Of course, most of them are still celebrities; that’s the only way they’ll draw in an audience. But each episode will have at least two or three people who are relatively famous in other industries. For example, famous entrepreneurs, chefs, athletes, internet celebrities, and so on. So this time, the program team wants to invite you to participate in their show and see how things play out.”

As Yicheng said this, he laughed. “The nature of this program is to require the guests to run and do missions to help themselves escape, so the physical requirements for the guests are relatively high. Also, other than this, I think the program team has taken a liking to your popularity. Ever since you made your debut, you’ve always been very popular. Your popularity is also the highest among the guests not from the entertainment industry, which is why the program team wants you on the show.”

“I think this is a good opportunity,” Yicheng said, “but it’s still up to you. If you don’t want to participate, I’ll reject it.”

Yicheng had, of course, first asked Qin Mufeng about this invitation. It was only because he’d found it agreeable that Yicheng had approached Jiang Xun with the invitation to begin with.

“I’ll join,” Jiang Xun said decisively.

She wanted to go to the entertainment industry to get more MP from her haters. She was only in the online celebrity circle now, but she already had so many haters. If she were to get into the entertainment industry, wouldn’t she have access to even more?

Jiang Xun would never let go of such a good opportunity!

“Okay, then I’ll contact the program team,” Yicheng said with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Yicheng sent Mufeng’s cell phone number to Jiang Xun and quickly called him. “President, Jiang Xun already knows that you were the one who found out about Lin Youyan. She also knows that you were the one who terminated Lin Youyan’s contract and sent her a lawyer’s letter.”

Mufeng had never thought of hiding these things from Jiang Xun. He’d even given Wang Yicheng his permission to tell her all of this.

“Not bad.” Mufeng’s mood was finally better as he leaned back on his sofa comfortably.

“What about the variety show ‘Accelerated Flight’? Is she participating?” Mufeng’s fingers tapped on his knees repeatedly.

“She’s participating,” Yicheng answered. “Jiang Xun even asked me for your phone number. He probably wants to call you personally to thank you.”

“Then why are you still holding up the call?” Mufeng immediately turned hostile upon hearing that.

“Ah?” Yicheng was a little confused by Mufeng’s sudden change of attitude and didn’t react for a moment.

“You’re hindering Jiang Xun from calling me,” Mufeng directly and mercilessly pointed out.

Yicheng immediately understood, but he felt as if Mufeng had grabbed a gun and shot his heart full of holes. “I’ll hang up now.”

At the same time, Jiang Xun had received Mufeng’s cell phone number from Yicheng and saved it into her cell phone, but she found herself staring at the phone screen for a long while, her finger poised to tap the call button.

She, who was usually decisive and efficient, was now in a dilemma.

The system asked, “Host, what are you hesitating about?”

Jiang Xun replied, “I was thinking, if I took the initiative to call Mufeng, would he think that I’m only approaching him because I have ill intentions? After all, he was not the one who gave me the number. I was the one who asked Mr. Wang for it. If he really wanted me to contact him, he would’ve given me the number a long time ago.”

“Did the sun set in the east today? You’re actually having this kind of dilemma for once.”

” ...I suspect that Mufeng has left a psychological scar on me.”

The system could only blink at that statement. …Did Mufeng know that somehow, this situation was his fault?

Nonetheless, it said, “But Mufeng has helped you so much. It wouldn’t be right if you didn’t thank him.”

Jiang Xun remained silent. That was exactly why she was so conflicted.

She thought about it for a while longer before saying, “No matter what,as long as I have a clear conscience, I should be fine. It’s not like he’s never misunderstood me before. This time, I can see if he really meant his promise of never misunderstanding me again.”

The system said, “But Host, you’ve never cared about what others think of you. Why do you suddenly care whether or not Mufeng will misunderstand you again?”

Jiang Xun was stumped by its question. She was tongue-tied for a long time and realized that she couldn’t answer it.

And so, she ignored it and called Mufeng, only for him to be on the phone with someone else.

Her call didn’t go through.

She ended up waiting for another 20 minutes or so before making another call. This time, the call went through, and the dial tone only rang once before Mufeng picked the call up.

“Hello?” Mufeng’s voice came from the phone.

The phone’s speaker was pressed up against her ear, making Mufeng’s voice almost seem to slide right into it. Jiang Xun’s ear suddenly felt very hot.

She opened her mouth to reply, but was unable to speak for a while. It was like her thoughts had ground to a halt.

“Hello?” Mufeng called out again. It couldn’t be that Jiang Xun didn’t intend to talk to him, right?
