Some time ago, Mu Yazhe had meticulously organized the wedding of the century for her. It was said that he had invited many distinguished guests to witness their sacred union.

…

In any case, rumors about Yun Shishi were all over the place, but none of them were verified. Most of the rumors came from experienced media personnel who dug up information from various sources.

Yun Shishi did not know how these professional media personnel did it.

Back then, in order to protect her and her unborn daughter, Mu Yazhe strictly controlled access to her and blocked all news. Even when her daughter was born, the reporters outside the hospital waited for three days and three nights without getting a single useful photograph.

Even with such tight security around her, the media managed to get some snippets of news.

During the interview, the reporters threw out one sharp question after another. After all, she had been out of the public eye for a long time and the public was too curious about her!

During the break between interviews, Yun Shishi retreated to the dressing room. Exhausted from being pestered by the media reporters, she sat down in front of the mirror. Mu Xi walked over and smiled when she noticed how spent she looked. “Are you tired?”

“Uh huh.”

“Shishi, does CEO Mu agree to your comeback?”

“As long as I don’t tire myself out and neglect my family, he won’t have any objections.”

Mu Xi laughed. “Why did you decide to make a comeback?”

“It’s not really an official comeback. But I’ll consider accepting good scripts. The interview was mainly to accommodate the National Drama Festival.”

After a short pause, she continued, “If I can really win the award, I’d consider myself having fulfilled one of my wishes.”

Mu Xi lowered her gaze and looked at her forlornly in the mirror.

For the past two days, she seemed to be a little distracted and restless.

When Yun Shishi handed the bag to her, her hands actually trembled. As though she was struck by a certain thought, a look of self-reproach appeared on her face. She blinked as tears formed in her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.

“What’s wrong with you?” Yun Shishi was naturally worried when she saw this. She had noticed that Mu Xi seemed rather out of sorts lately.

For some reason, she’d be in a daze for a long time. And sometimes, she wouldn’t respond even when someone called out to her. She would look deep in thought, although no one knew what she was thinking.

“Are you okay?” Yun Shishi asked with great concern, “I notice that you seem rather distracted recently.”

Mu Xi shook her head. “Nothing. Don’t worry.”

“Are you feeling unwell? If so, I’ll give you a break.”

“No, no… I’m just worried about the National Drama festival. If some dark horse clinches the award, that’s the end of you!”

“No big deal!”

Yun Shishi was somewhat exasperated and said helplessly, “Just over this matter? Actually, I’m quite confident about winning the award. You don’t have to worry. Even if I don’t win the award, I won’t be disappointed. Anyway, fame and fortune aren’t that important to me anymore.”

Mu Xi bit her lip and looked at her as though she had something to say, however, she stopped herself.

She wanted to confess everything to her, but when she saw Yun Shishi looking into the mirror, she swallowed her words.

Yun Shishi touched up her makeup and returned to the interview room to continue her interview with another television station.

Mu Xi sat down in Yun Shishi’s seat. She seemed to have made up her mind about something as she clenched her fists.

She took out a letter from her bag and pinched the corner of the letter tightly, biting her lip.
