Song Ning asked Mu Chen, “Is their cake really good?”


Mu Chen said while driving, “We won't know until we try it. Cheng Che said that I could send him to a place the Gods left behind for a business trip if it didn't taste good.”


Song Ning giggled. “Why are you so shameless and childish?”


Mu Chen glanced at him. “I hope you will remember what you just said. I'll show you what exactly helplessness is.”


Song Ning smiled and looked out the window, not bothered by her threat at all. Suddenly, he turned around and asked, “Why are there so many paparazzi outside?”


Mu Chen, who had long since realized their presence, calmly replied, “I don't know. Maybe, there are celebrities around.”


Song Ning instinctively turned around and hid her face. “Could they be here to photograph you? Didn't you say you've had an affair with a celebrity before? ”


Song Ning did not have the habit of reading entertainment news, and Mu Chen thought it was a good thing. She grabbed and patted her head as she said, “Well, I'm having an affair with you now.”


Song Ning pushed her hand away, still turning her face away from the window. “I'm not a star anymore. I can't even compare to those lesser-known stars.”


Mu Chen held his hand gently and replied, “Don't strain your neck. Don't worry, they won't be able to photograph you. The window is dark.”


Nevertheless, Song Ning was still skeptical.


After seeing the doubt written on his face, he said again, “That's right.”


Finally, he heaved a sigh of relief and straightened his back.


Amused, Mu Chen chuckled while saying teasingly, “You must have gotten used to this kind of thing when you were popular, right?”


Song Ning did not respond to his words, though,


After seeing her reaction, she turned to look at him and asked, “You don't seem happy every time I talk about your past.”


His grip tightened in his hand as he asked, “Paparazzi are here because of you, right? Is it because you have a dating scandal with a celebrity before that they are trying to find out if you are with that celebrity? Or are they here to find out who your new boyfriend is?”


Mu Chen felt a little helpless when he heard his question. Song Ning was quiet and calm, but behind that outer appearance was a very intelligent woman. Moreover, he had been in the entertainment industry. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to figure out what was going on.


“Jawab me.” Song Ning shook her hand, urging her to answer.


He nodded before he explained, “The problem is that I have nothing to do with that celebrity. I was tricked by him. He wanted to cause a scandal, but he didn't want to hang out with the male stars in the industry. So he decided to use me. After that, his family came to apologize to me. In the end, I deleted my trending name on social media. However, the internet never forgets. Therefore, this incident has left a stain on my name.” In fact, he was a bit annoyed by this matter.


Song Ning glanced out the car window as she asked, “Did they follow us when we left? Can we still go to that cake shop?” His main concern now was whether he could eat a cake today.


Mu Chen could not help but smile when he saw that all he cared about was the cake. He said softly, “Let them follow us if that's what they want. I don't want to ruin our trip to the dessert shop today.”


Song Ning sighed. “It looks like paparazzi are more interested in you than celebrities. Why don't you drop me off first and park your car in the corner? I'll buy a cake as you go around to divert the paparazzi. ”


After hearing these words, Mu Chen asked in a slightly sullen tone, “Why?”


Song Ning bluntly said, “Since you are the cause of the problem, you naturally have to clean up the mess. Don't let your troubles affect me and Grandma. ”


Mu Chen laughed. “You and Grandma really have the same thought.”


Song Ning did not understand his words.


Meanwhile, Mu Chen recalled seeing Ye Xin get into Jiang's car at the entrance. He thought, ‘Forget it. No need to tell Song Ning about it.’


She knows her grandmother is creating opportunities for her and helping her in her marriage. He could not let his grandmother's efforts go to waste. It was already difficult for him to make Song Ning fall in love with him. Even if she fell in love with him, she would probably know.


Mu Chen smiled. ‘Then, why don't I ..’
