Chapter 903 If you don’t eat the toast, you will be punished by drinking wine
"Really?" Jiang Mubai suddenly smiled, with a hint of weirdness in his smile, "Gu Yanchen, do you think I am still the Jiang Mubai who had nothing five years ago? I tell you, I am no longer the same person I was back then!"
She pulled out a document from her bag and slammed it in Gu Yanchen's face, "Look what this is! This is the evidence I collected of your tax evasion over the years! And your dirty deals! It's enough to put you in jail for life!"
Gu Yanchen's face suddenly changed, he grabbed the document and quickly flipped through it. His breathing became more and more rapid, and his eyes became more and more gloomy.
"You...you actually..." He gritted his teeth, almost squeezing out these words from between his teeth.
Jiang Mubai sneered: "What? Are you scared? Gu Yanchen, I've said it before, I'm not someone you can mess with! You'd better pray that I'm in a good mood, otherwise, these things will appear on the headlines of major media tomorrow!"
She turned around and tried to leave, but Gu Yanchen grabbed her wrist.
"Want to leave? Not that easy!" Gu Yanchen roared, "Do you think you can defeat me with just this little thing in your hand? Jiang Mubai, you are too naive!"
He suddenly pulled Jiang Mubai into his arms, holding her tightly, his eyes full of madness: "Since you don't want to drink my toast, don't blame me for being rude!"
The door of the box was suddenly pushed open, and a tall and straight figure appeared at the door.
"Gu Yanchen, let her go!"
The person who came was none other than the popular top star, the national male god - Lu Jingchen.
He walked in step by step, staring at Gu Yanchen with cold eyes, exuding a powerful aura.
Gu Yanchen was stunned, then sneered: "Lu Jingchen, what are you doing here? This is a matter between Jiang Mubai and me, it has nothing to do with you!"
Lu Jingchen walked up to Gu Yanchen and said in a cold tone: "Jiang Mubai is my woman, do you think she has anything to do with me?"
"Your woman?" Gu Yanchen laughed wantonly as if he had heard some big joke. "Lu Jingchen, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself! Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of touching my woman?"
Lu Jingchen didn't say anything, but his eyes became colder and his fists clenched tighter.
Jiang Mubai felt warm at the sight. She gently pushed Gu Yanchen away, walked to Lu Jingchen, took his arm, and looked at him provocatively: "Gu Yanchen, listen carefully, I am Lu Jingchen's girlfriend now! If you dare to touch a hair on my body, he will never let you go!"
Gu Yanchen's face turned livid, his eyes filled with anger and jealousy. He stared at Lu Jingchen and Jiang Mubai, as if he wanted to eat them alive.
"Okay! Very good!" He gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait! I won't let you go!"
After saying that, he slammed the door and left, leaving Lu Jingchen and Jiang Mubai in the box.
Jiang Mubai looked at Gu Yanchen's departing back, and suddenly felt uneasy. She always felt that this matter would not end so easily...
Jiang Mubai's heart was beating like a drum. She was surprised and touched by Lu Jingchen's sudden appearance. She didn't expect him to appear at this time, and she didn't expect him to say such words.
Gu Yanchen's departure did not ease the atmosphere in the box, but made it even more solemn. Jiang Mubai still held Lu Jingchen's arm, but her hand was shaking slightly.
Lu Jingchen looked down at her, his eyes full of worry: "Are you okay?"
Jiang Mubai shook his head and tried to force a smile: "I'm fine, thank you."
Lu Jingchen gently stroked her hair and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
These few short words made Jiang Mubai feel extremely relieved. She raised her head and looked at Lu Jingchen's angular face, and a warm current surged in her heart.
"Jingchen," Jiang Mubai asked softly, "Why...why did you say that? Why did you say I'm your woman?"
A complex emotion flashed across Lu Jingchen's eyes. He was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Because I don't want to see you being bullied by him."
"But..." Jiang Mubai hesitated, "Will this cause you trouble?"
Lu Jingchen smiled and said firmly: "I'm not afraid of trouble."
He paused and added, "Besides, what I said is from the heart."
Jiang Mubai's heart trembled suddenly. She didn't dare to look directly into Lu Jingchen's eyes. She could only lower her head to hide her panic.
There was a brief silence in the box, and the atmosphere was ambiguous and subtle.
"Ahem," Jiang Mubai coughed lightly, breaking the silence, "Well... let's go out first."
Lu Jingchen nodded, took her hand, and walked out of the box.
In the corridor, Lu Jingchen suddenly stopped and turned to look at Jiang Mubai.
"Mu Bai," he said seriously, "Can I pursue you?"
Jiang Mubai was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Jingchen to be so direct. She raised her head and looked into Lu Jingchen's deep eyes, with mixed feelings in her heart.
"I..." She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
"I know you may not have forgotten Gu Yanchen yet," Lu Jingchen said calmly, "but I won't give up. I will use my actions to prove my sincerity to you."
Jiang Mubai's heart was touched again. She looked at Lu Jingchen's sincere eyes and gradually had an answer in her heart.
"Jingchen," she said softly, "give me a little time, okay?"
Lu Jingchen nodded, with a gentle smile on his face: "I'll wait for you."
The two walked out of the hotel side by side. The night enveloped them, but it could not conceal the ambiguous feelings surging between them.
The next day, news of Gu Yanchen's tax evasion and improper transactions broke out, and the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar. Gu Yanchen's image plummeted, and his company was also hit hard.
Jiang Mubai watched the news with mixed feelings. She knew that she had done all this, but she did not regret it.
At this time, her cell phone rang. It was Lu Jingchen calling.
"Mu Bai," Lu Jingchen's voice was filled with worry, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Jiang Mubai tried to keep himself calm, "Thank you."
"Don't thank me," Lu Jingchen said gently, "You should know that I do all this for you."
Jiang Mubai's heart was touched again. She took a deep breath and said, "Jingchen, we..."
"Shh," Lu Jingchen interrupted her, "Don't say anything, I know your answer."
He paused, then said, "Let's have dinner together tonight. I want to talk to you."
Jiang Mubai agreed.
In the evening, Lu Jingchen took Jiang Mubai to a high-end restaurant. The candlelight dinner and the romantic atmosphere gradually relaxed Jiang Mubai.
"Mu Bai," Lu Jingchen raised his glass, "Cheers to our future."
Jiang Mubai also raised his glass and clinked it with his.
"Jingchen," Jiang Mubai put down his glass and looked into Lu Jingchen's eyes, "I..."
