Chapter 203 I knew it was you all along (Mu Mu)
Mu Mu didn't seem surprised to hear her real name spoken.

He straightened up, and when he saw that Shen Zhaoyi had to look up at him because of her height, he bent down slightly.

Once their eyes were level, Mumu began her counterattack.

He said, "Sister, be normal. It doesn't sound good if you put it up like that."

Shen Zhaoyi found the words somewhat familiar; it seemed she had said something similar when they first met. (Chapter 48)
Does this person have such a good memory?

The imagined scenario of being exposed without realizing it did not occur.

On the contrary, Mu Mu's face didn't show even a hint of surprise.

Shen Zhaoyi realized what was happening, "You knew it was me all along?"

The "early" here refers to our first encounter at the entrance of the milk tea shop.

"No, actually I didn't recognize her at first," Mumu answered sincerely.

Shen Zhaoyi pondered where she had slipped up.

Could it be that this person clicked on the profile picture and looked at it carefully?

Mumu seemed to read her mind and gave a negative answer, "I thought that photo was a picture from the internet, so I didn't look at it carefully."

Shen Zhaoyi had an expression that said, "I knew it."

After all, Han Ziyang and Wang Lei had the same thought when they first met him.

So, when did this person recognize him?

Seeing her confusion, Mumu explained: "Actually, the impression I got from the older sister at the milk tea shop that day was very deep."

After all, she has the face of a cold and aloof goddess, but the first thing she said was, "Um..."

It's a very impactful scene.

What's more, during the video call that evening, Shen Zhaoyi asked some strange questions.

In fact, for most people, no matter how much they disguise their voice, they will still retain their original timbre.

"So, sister, you can understand it as me being too familiar with you."

When they met in person, Mu Mu didn't give Shen Zhaoyi the frivolous and vulgar feeling she had online.

On the contrary, his speech and behavior were very proper and composed.

This unexpected contrast left Shen Zhaoyi somewhat bewildered for a moment.

The two of them were being watched closely by those around them, and some people had already guessed that the beautiful woman must be Mu Mu's top female friend—"the sixty-year-old lady".

Their shock was no less than that of the viewers in the live stream.

Even though new top-ranked players were arriving one after another, the discussion in the live stream chat was still focused on Shen Zhaoyi.

There's no way around it, the drama is just too much.

The company's operations staff were upstairs looking at the backend data, their faces practically beaming with joy.

They knew that today's popularity would be exceptional.

Regardless of whether the "sixty-year-old woman" is actually her, as long as she can generate a continuous stream of topics, that's fine.

As for other things, they are not within the scope of the company's consideration.

The lobby on the first floor was gradually getting more crowded. Mu Mu knew that now was not a good time to chat freely, so he straightened up and gentlemanly placed his hand in front of Shen Zhaoyi, "Sister, shall I take you upstairs to the party venue?"

Slender, fair fingertips gently landed on a deep wheat-colored palm.

It was as if the night had cradled the crescent moon in his heart.

Perhaps to avoid excessive privacy leaks, or perhaps to make things easier, the live broadcast of this event only showed the area around the main stage, in addition to the building itself.

From the lobby on the first floor to the elevator, and even the corridors above, everything can be avoided.

Mu Mu led Shen Zhaoyi into the elevator.

Before speaking, he was still a little apprehensive.

But after receiving that message last night, I suddenly felt reassured.

Moreover, during a recent conversation with Jiang Jiang, he learned that Shen Zhaoyi had intended to help him when she terminated her contract. However, his arrogance at the time caused him to miss that opportunity.

The night the ceremony ended, Mumu went home, found the contract, and carefully calculated the compensation for early termination. Including what was in her bank account, she was still short more than three million yuan.

For Shen Zhaoyi, this only took one night.

Oh no, it's the money spent on gifts during the first half of the live stream.

Although Mu Mu knew she had no obligation to help her, she still had to have some hope.

What if?
The company has no intention of letting him go. If they secretly pull some strings and renew his contract without his knowledge, he'll be completely ruined.

I used to think that if the sky fell, I could just use it as a blanket. But now I realize that before it falls, I feel like I've found a refuge.

Jiang Jiang's suggestions included speaking her mind and going to Manager Wang to cry.

Mumu thought this was a bit difficult.

He really couldn't cry.

We survived even the worst things.

Even now, looking back, I feel no emotion whatsoever...

With a "ding," the elevator arrived at the floor where the gala was being broadcast live.

Stepping out of the elevator, Mu Mu's hand still didn't let go of Shen Zhaoyi's.

This place was the stage for the previous grand competition, but it had been temporarily modified. He led people to the dessert table on the side.

"Sister probably didn't eat much for dinner, did she?"

"How did you know?" Shen Zhaoyi asked, somewhat surprised.

This dress accentuates the figure and has a great waist-cinching effect, but it also has its drawbacks.

That means you're destined not to be able to eat too much.

Before coming here in the evening, I only ate a few bites of the dishes my aunt had made, planning to go back and have a proper meal after the evening.

Mumu guessed it from her outfit tonight.

I picked out a few snacks for her with tongs and then led her to the rest area next door to sit down. "Sister, eat some of these first. Don't worry, the live stream camera will be far away and won't capture the details."

These words were meant to tell Shen Zhaoyi that it was okay if her belly was a little bulging.

Anyway, those people in the live stream can't see it, so I can't let my stomach suffer.

The company knew that the people coming tonight were no ordinary people, after all, they were spending millions of dollars at a time, so naturally, they did a very good job of making a good impression.

Even the desserts were specially made, and they tasted really good.

Shen Zhaoyi was more obedient to advice than he had imagined.

After taking a few bites, he asked, "Will you be staying by my side the whole time during this party?"

"That's true now."

"But when the show officially starts later, my sister will need to sit in the audience."

Mumu reached out and pointed to the area below the stands not far away.

Shen Zhaoyi immediately understood, "You're not going to put on a live performance, are you?"

He didn't say anything, which was taken as tacit agreement.

We've brought all this way for these people, so it's not just about meeting them briefly to say thank you; we need to make sure they feel our sincerity.

Shen Zhaoyi imagined the scene that would unfold later and suddenly felt awkward.

The dances in their live streams rely on camera work and lighting to enhance the performance. Watching them on a phone screen is completely different from experiencing them firsthand.

Aren't you afraid that the bosses will feel that the difference is too great?
"What are you thinking about, sister?"

Seeing that she remained silent, I assumed she wasn't used to being in this kind of situation.

Mumu took that hand again and squeezed it reassuringly. "Don't worry, I'll come down to find you as soon as it's over."
