Secret Crush

Chapter 177 The Wedding

She did have a crush on him, or even a closer relationship with him, but it didn't mean that she would marry him. Her own matter hadn't been over yet, and even if she finished dealing with it, she wouldn't be so eager to make an engagement with him.

She didn't mean to describe them with hypocrisy or not, but their relationship hadn't reached that state, especially when it came to Max for herself.

She knew how deep her love was, so she was also very clear in her heart.

She didn't want Max to be regretful after getting married because of this mishap.

"Leila ever thought about this?"

Finally, it came. What Senior Mr. Mu said pushed Leila to the edge of the storm. For a moment, both her eyes stared at Leila, which panicked her. She bit her lips, not knowing how to answer.

If she said no to them face-to-face, not only would Max get angry, but even her father Senior Mr. Mu would have a strange opinion of her. But if she agreed, she would really be in a trouble for the rest of her life. What if Max realized that he was just a temporary impulse, not a true love? What should she do?

When Max saw the little woman in front of him think deeply and without an answer, he showed a complicated expression.

In the past, he would never ask for her opinion. He always wanted to get what he wanted, and he would try every means to pull her to his side. He would never ask her opinions.

But now, he couldn't be so reckless as before.

Of course, he could also guess Leila's concerns, she must have a sense of insecurity, so she looked so confused and hesitant.

This time, he wouldn't force her.

Looking at Leila's reaction, Senior Mr. Mu was more certain that she was not greedy for wealth. Many girls would be very excited when hearing this, after all, being able to marry a CEO of a group which could be sold in South Sea, almost wealthy and occupying the center of the domestic economic market.

In fact, no girl could refuse such a temptation from a rich family.

But she was hesitating, not about how to euphemistically promise. Senior Mr. Mu was a man of high self-knowledge, and he would never make a wrong judgment. He could feel the complicated emotion of Leila.

She was wondering how to refuse him, but not how to accept him.

He was sure about that.

He arched his brows and thought, 'it seems that the woman my son has a crush on is not simple. But it takes my son some time and effort to win her heart.'.

"Since you haven't discussed it yet, let's wait and see."

Hearing Senior Mr. Mu said like this, Leila stopped being aggressive. Leila breathed a sigh of relief when Senior Mr. Mu said this before she gave an answer. Max's eyes were deep, and he said in a low voice: "OK."

At the beginning, she felt like she could hardly eat anything.

After Leila had a few bites like chewing wax, she stopped eating. Senior Mr. Mu saw through her mind and didn't make trouble for her, but Max didn't stop eating. Instead, he looked indifferent and elegant.

After lunch, Leila sat on the sofa, holding a cup of water and taking a sip.

"Let's go." said Max.

His words brought Leila back to reality. She looked at Senior Mr. Mu who was smiling kindly at her and nodded, "Take care."

With a wrinkled smile on his face, Senior Mr. Mu nodded and responded, "Okay. When will you come back?"

After hearing that, Leila thought for a while and didn't answer. Sitting next to them, Max gave her a hint with his eyes. Leila answered, "It will be quick, won't it?"

Only then did Senior Mr. Mu nod with satisfaction and waved his hand. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

"Well, you can go back now. Be careful on the way."

Both Leila and Max nodded their heads slightly and then left shoulder to shoulder. When they walked out of the gate of the Mu's private house, Leila was relieved but not feeling the atmosphere was too depressing. On the contrary, the atmosphere was very harmonious today. It was only because Senior Mr. Mu's question and Max's answer made her feel heavy.

She had never thought about getting married. Now that they had put the most important thing on her, she could not help thinking about it.

She had to say that today's meeting had really given her a huge problem.

Whether she would like to accept it or not, it was very difficult for her.

If she said yes, her future life would be limited. She might even be abandoned at any time in the future.

But she couldn't tell her feelings if she didn't accept his proposal. She just felt that it was impossible to marry him. This was her most determined idea which had never changed.

Staring at the back of Max, a kind of unspeakable emotion emerged in her heart. Leila shook her head and abandoned all her thoughts.

No matter she wanted to escape or selfishly, she didn't want to face this problem at this moment.

And Leila was relieved that Max didn't mention it when coming out of Mu family's private house, not forcing her.

When they was back, Max was back to the company. Leila was confused that he was also in the company during his day off, but she didn't care about it.

After seeing him get off the car and enter the company and leave, she said to Robert, "I'm going to the company, too."

Robert caught a glimpse of the woman in the rearview mirror. 'something has happened between them since they left the Mu Family. But I am not in the position to ask anything, ' he thought.

He just followed her orders and drove the car in front of the entertainment company. Leila was standing in front of her company, looking at the building, not too grand but still eye-catching.

Johnson had never wronged himself. Every item was made gorgeous in appearance. As a result, although the company was small in size, the decoration was very exquisite.

Leila was glad to do what she wanted to do. It was a good thing that she got such a company even without a penny.

She believed in her ability. Given some time, this company would be able to rank among the most famous groups in the country.

Even if it was not involved in domestic areas, it had to make a figure in this city.

This was her goal and also what she had to do. If the company hadn't been offline, she had no source of money. She knew that it wouldn't last long with the help of Max.

Although she trusted Max, she couldn't rely on him forever. Her inner obstinacy made her unable to live like a pity. She wanted to have her own life, her circle, and the ability to develop all this.

When Leila went back to the company, Wendi was walking towards her. Leila was worried that Leila appeared in front of her when she couldn't reach her today.

"Where did you go today? Why didn't you answer my phone? "

It was not until then that Leila realized her phone was left in the apartment, not with her. So it made sense that she couldn't get through to Wendi.

However, seeing her so anxious, Leila concluded that she should have some important decisions or judgments.

"What's wrong? What happened? "

She asked. After pausing for a moment, she replied, "Amy TV refused our cooperation."

Hearing this, Leila raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect such a result, because she was confident in her own plan. She believed that such a plan would cause a sensation no matter which TV station it was on, but Amy TV refused them unexpectedly.

That was a new thing, but as she wished, it was not to cooperate with Moore.

Leila didn't want to get involved in his business any more. Now that she and Moore were perfect for each other, Leila said indifferently, "I don't mean that we have to cooperate with him."

Wendi took a look at her. Although she didn't know what had happened between her and Moore, she could tell that they were at odds with each other. She was happy that Amy TV had refused her.

Then what am I worrying about?

Thought Wendi helplessly.

"Which TV station are you going to cooperate with?"

Leila couldn't figure Wendi's question out for a while. She replied, "we need to give it a further thought. We should choose a TV station that is neither high nor low-key. It would be better if it is well matched with each other."

It was not unreasonable for her to say so, because if the two companies cooperate as a Amy TV, they would definitely be controlled by the other side's power and unable to do what they wanted to do, which was very reluctant for Leila who had her own ideas.

But it's completely meaningless to find a TV station that was not better than her own company.

Her initial plan was to make the stars famous using the fame of TV stations. And it would be of no use if she cooperated with a TV station which was even less famous than hers?

Although all kinds of costs were relatively cheap, but it was useless if it had no effect. Leila would rather choose a good result than a cheap one.

So only when the two companies were well matched could they give full play to each other's strength and role.

Since they didn't want to cooperate, neither of them would feel wronged. This was the best way for the cooperation.

This was how Leila's ideal cooperative TV station worked.

Now that she had drawn the circle, she only needed to look for a partner according to the range, which greatly reduced her work load.

"By the way, I heard that the Mu Group is going to hold their fashion week."

Hearing Wendi said like this, Leila was in a daze for a while. A fashion date was on? Why didn't she hear about it?

Although she didn't actually take charge of the designer of this fashion week, she schemed most of it in person. It was so impolite of her to not be informed of the coming event.

When Max and Leila were together, she didn't hear any news about this matter from Max. She had thought that it would be held after a period of time, but she didn't expect it to be so fast!

What's more, she hadn't made a corresponding plan to dispel Johnson's doubts. If he found her real strength and controlled it on the launch of fashion week, her actions would be greatly hindered. It was a very disadvantageous situation for her.

The news Wendi gave just came in a rush, and took a lot of time out of her. What she had to do now was to deal with the preparation before the launch of the fashion week. So Johnson wouldn't suspect her.

"It seems that I have to go to the Song Group now."

Leila said in a helpless tone. Wendi knew what she wanted to do. She patted her shoulder and encouraged, "Come on!"
