The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 260 An Important Announcement

Murong Ye placed his chopsticks down and took a sip. He turned back to look at Murong Yunxi and, after a moment of hesitation, he said, "You just returned to the Murong Family a few months ago. You have taken over some of the affairs of the Murong family now, but you have to know that they do not wield a single bit of the Murong family's power. They only own a small portion of shares. How do you think they will treat you?"

"You mean that they will make things difficult for me out of jealousy?" Murong Yunxi frowned slightly. In her heart, she could not help but feel even greater rejection over the New Year's Eve dinner.

"They might not make things difficult for you, but they will at least not be very friendly to you."

Murong Yunxi instantly felt dejected. She pulled a long face and said bitterly, "To be honest, I don't really want to go to the New Year's Eve dinner. I would rather spend New Year's with Xuanxuan."

Murong Ye chuckled and looked up at Murong Yunxi as if he was not the least bit worried. "Don't worry! Brother is here. I will make you s.h.i.+ne radiantly at this year's New Year's Eve dinner!"

Murong Yunxi's eyes brightened all of a sudden. "What do you mean? Brother, what are you going to do?"

Murong Ye continued to eat casually. "Don't worry. Anyway, I will not sell you off. Alright, hurry up and eat. There is still work to do tomorrow."

Murong Yunxi immediately screamed in shock like a furious rooster, "Work?"

Murong Ye, who was completely unbothered, looked up at Murong Yunxi as if she was making a big fuss over a small matter. "Yes, you've been resting for so long. Go with me to the company tomorrow."

Murong Yunxi looked sideways at Murong Ye with her big eyes and pouted her lips to express her dissatisfaction. "Brother, do you like being so harsh? You won't let me off even on the last day before New Year's!"

Murong could not help but burst out into laughter when he saw Murong Yunxi like this. He reached out with his hand and gave Murong Yunxi a light flick. "Zhou Guapi. Have you ever seen a Zhou Guapi who would allow you to take such a long break?"

Although Murong Ye had not used much strength, Murong Yunxi pretended to be aggrieved and balmed Murong Ye. "Hey, brother! You're being a bully!"

Murong Ye gave Murong Yunxi a look with his beautiful eyes and turned to look at Niannian. "Be careful, or Niannian will make a joke out of your current state!"

Niannian instantly became cooperative and spoke like a little adult. "I can't say that I will joke, but I will be repulsed."

Gong Yu, who had been watching excitedly for a while from aside, could not help but burst into laughter and gently caress Niannian's head.

Both of Murong Yunxi's cheeks puffed up instantly and she glared at the three of them. "Great. The three of you are all bullying me!"

After she said that, Murong Yunxi threw down her chopsticks and turned to head upstairs.

Murong Ye called out after her. "Hey, we're just kidding! Come back quick to eat dinner!"

"I'm full from anger," Murong Yunxi said before going upstairs without looking back.

Murong Ye looked helplessly at Gong Yu, who stuffed the last mouthful of rice in the bowl into his mouth, got up and said, "Big brother, eat slowly with Niannian. I will go take a look at her."

Gong Yu pushed the door open and saw Murong Yunxi huddled on the sofa. She had placed a laptop on her thighs and was typing away on the keyboard.

Gong Yu stepped forward and sat down beside her before he said calmly, "Why can't you take a joke? This is not like you!"

Murong Yunxi continued her current action. "No, I had no appet.i.te. Did you think that I would really be angry?"

"Why? Are you nervous about the New Year's Eve dinner the day after tomorrow?" Gong Yu raised his eyebrows in slight astonishment and looked at Murong Yunxi. He was quite surprised that Murong Yunxi was nervous now.

"I didn't say that I'm nervous. I simply want to do something and not embarra.s.s myself."

"Embarra.s.s yourself?" Gong Yu burst out into laughter. "How could my wife be an embarra.s.sment?"

Murong Yunxi did not bother answering. She just continued doing the things at hand. She was so focused that the motion of her fingers, which typed away on the computer, was quick and consistent.

Gong Yu could not help but stretch out his neck curiously to look at Murong Yunxi's computer. However, he discovered that he could not understand anything.

"What are you doing?" Gong Yu was puzzled by Murong Yunxi's behavior.

Murong Yunxi smiled mysteriously, the corners of her lips rising into a smug arc. "Heaven's secrets cannot be divulged."

Murong Yunxi was busy all night. She only managed to sleep at dawn the next morning. However, she only slept for a short while before she heard a knock on the door.

Her brows were furrowed tight and she tossed over, but she continued to sleep.

Gong Yu rose from the sofa and took one glance at Murong Yunxi, who was still asleep on the bed. He then walked over to the door and opened it.

Murong Ye stood at the door. He was already dressed neatly in a suit and leather shoes. "Where's Xiao Xi?"

Gong Yu pointed to Murong Yunxi, who was still asleep on the bed. Murong Ye stretched his neck and took one look at her before he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a low voice, "Why is she still sleeping at this time? Doesn't she always wake up rather early?"

Murong Yunxi rarely slept in, so Murong Ye had not made any prior arrangements with her on the timing.

Gong Yu deliberately lowered his voice and replied in a hushed tone, "She was secretive. I do not know what she is up to. She was so busy that she only went to bed at dawn, when it was almost morning. She's only slept for three hours so far."

Murong Ye frowned and his face darkened. "I was going to take her to the board meeting today. If she does not get up now, she will delay everything."

Gong Yu asked a little hesitantly, "In that case, must she attend? What is the impact if she does not?"

Murong Ye was also slightly hesitant. He was prepared to make some big moves at the meeting with the board of directors today for Murong Yunxi's sake. Now that Murong Yunxi was absent, he was in a rather difficult position. However, he could not bear to wake her up.

While the two men were hesitating, Murong Yunxi sat up suddenly. Her eyes were still blurry and closed.

The two of them, who were slightly surprised by Murong Yunxi's sudden movement, looked over at her strangely.

Murong Yunxi threw the quilt away, got out of bed in a semi-conscious state and walked towards the bathroom. The moment the bathroom door was closed, Murong Yunxi blurted out a few words as if she was talking in her sleep, "Give me twenty minutes."

Subsequently, the bathroom door was closed. After a brief moment, the sound of running water could be heard.

Murong Ye looked at Gong Yu strangely and pointed at the bathroom door. Gong Yu shook his head and pulled Murong Ye downstairs.

Sure enough, twenty minutes later, Murong Yunxi went downstairs in high spirits. She appeared to be a completely different person from the muddled Murong Yunxi who had still been half-asleep earlier.

Murong Yunxi's long, luscious hair had been gently tied up in a neat ponytail behind her head. The makeup on her face was light and elegant, and she was dressed in a black, well-fitted business suit. A black wool coat hung over one of her arms, while her other hand carried an exquisite black handbag. She was wearing a pair of black high heels on her feet.

Now that she was dressed in black like this, Murong Yunxi had a completely different temperament than usual. She looked experienced, capable, calm and steady. She exuded a strong, great aura and had instantly been transformed into an outstanding phoenix among the crowd. She had the domineering aura of a successful career woman.

Murong Ye and Gong Yu were slightly stunned by Murong Yunxi's current appearance. For a while, they did not manage to react.

Murong Yunxi strode over proudly in a high and mighty manner and approached the two men, who were so startled that they could not even blink.

"Why are you dumbfounded?" Even the way Murong Yunxi spoke had become cold and arrogant.

Murong Ye closed his slightly open mouth and sized Murong Yunxi up. "Xiao Xi, you are..."

Gong Yu's eyes were also bright as stars. He opened and closed his mouth but did not manage to say a single word. At the moment, he was at a loss for words. He really had no idea what to say.

Murong Yunxi said in a low voice slightly impatiently, "Alright, you can be surprised, but let's set off!"

Murong Ye then managed to react to the fact that there were important things to do. After standing up, he picked up his coat and left the house with Murong Yunxi.

Gong Yu looked at Murong Yunxi's silhouette. He had yet to recover fully from the shock he felt in his heart. He sorted out his emotions briefly and went upstairs to change clothes.

Now that Murong Yunxi had changed so drastically, how could he stay idle and rest? He needed to move and improve his own business so that he could stand side by side with Murong Yunxi.

He was no longer the duke who was the center of everyone's attention, neither did he have strong influence and power. He also did not have a rich reserve. He had to start afresh with everything in this world, which was still slightly unfamiliar. After all, he had n.o.body to rely on to create a future that belonged to him and could be compatible with Murong Yunxi's future.

Gong Yu also rushed to the company after he packed his things. His unexpected appearance made Seventh Brother exclaim. During this period of time, Seventh Brother had managed the company by himself and fought alone. He had not expected Gong Yu to actually appear close to the last day of the year.

"Hey, what sort of wind brought a respectable G.o.d like you here? I need to thank the G.o.d of Wind today. He really did a good thing!" Seventh Brother looked meaningfully at Gong Yu. His eyes seemed to be saying: You finally developed a conscience.

Gong Yu, who did not take this to heart, replied in a low voice, "I am also one of the people in charge of this company."

Seventh Brother looked at him with even greater surprise, as if he had heard wrong. He actually tried to dig at his ears. "Hey, did I hear wrong? Your performance during this period of time only allowed me to see one thing: You truly have no sense of justice and only want to sit idly and enjoy the fruits of other people's labor!"

Gong Yu gave Seventh Brother a sharp glare. "Speak in human terms!"

"Am I not speaking in human terms? Not only am I speaking in human terms, but I am also saying the honest truth."

Gong Yu slapped Seventh Brother's shoulder. "Alright, let's get down to business..."

Gong Yu listened carefully to Seventh Brother as he described the company's recent situation and the things that had happened recently. Meanwhile, Murong Yunxi and Murong Ye also arrived at the conference room of the company's headquarters on time.

Murong Ye turned and took one glance at Murong Yunxi, who was next to him, and asked softly, "Are you ready?"

Murong Yunxi flashed a confident, radiant smile at him. Her entire being appeared to be glowing. "Of course. Let's go in."

Murong Yunxi pushed open the door of the conference room and the two of them strode inside.

All the directors had already arrived in the conference room. Murong Ye and Murong Yunxi walked to their seats and sat down.

Murong Ye scanned everyone around and said, "Directors, today is the last working day before New Year's. At the end of this year, apart from our summary of the annual developments, I also have an important announcement to make."
