I Become a Big Shot in Showbiz

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Kill You

“Back then, who didn’t know, who wasn’t aware, you took him everywhere you went, spent festivals together, and even built a mansion specifically for him. And you’re telling me you’re just friends? I also heard that to make the beauty smile, you built the Green Jade Terrace for moon gazing,” he said.

“Those are just speculations by others, we were just friends and nothing more,” Mu Lingyun said seriously.

“You really are stubborn…”

“Enough!” Ji Luochen’s face darkened, and he icily cut off Xiao Kai’s words that were yet to be spoken.

Feeling the frostiness in Ji Luochen’s gaze, Xiao Kai indeed obediently closed his mouth.

Only then did Ji Luochen turn to Mu Lingyun, his voice cold and distant, “I don’t want to know about your past, I just want to know, why did you bring him here?”

“Because he knew medical skills in his past life too, so I thought he could also take a look at your pulse,” Mu Lingyun said.

“No need! Get out, I’m tired!” Ji Luochen coldly refused, then closed his eyes.

“Your Highness…” Mu Lingyun frowned.

“Everyone out, do not make me repeat myself!” Ji Luochen, without opening his eyes, said these chilling words.

Seeing the situation, Xiao Kai was the first to leave.

Feeling somewhat helpless, Mu Lingyun eventually walked out side by side with Jiang Jingxin.

Hearing the footsteps of the two leaving, Ji Luochen opened his eyes.

A male favorite, was he her male favorite?

Could he be the male favorite who had accompanied her at the Li Mountain Hot Spring Palace on the day of his death? @@novelbin@@

Or could it truly be as she said, that this man was not her male favorite but just a friend?

Thinking about it, he felt the pain in his chest intensify, but he just clenched his teeth and bore it without making a sound.

Once out of the study, Mu Lingyun glared at Xiao Kai, and said word by word, “Xiao Kai, you’re seeking death!”

“If everyone is talking about it, why can’t I? There’s no smoke without fire. If there really was nothing between you two, why would everyone be spreading it?” Xiao Kai boldly retorted.

Mu Lingyun suddenly grabbed the front of Xiao Kai’s shirt, pulling him closer, and said coldly while staring into his eyes, “Even if everyone passes on errors and talks nonsense, when I say there’s nothing, there is nothing, and if you dare to spread rumors in front of His Highness again, I—will—kill—you—!”

For the first time, Xiao Kai truly felt a tangible murderous intent from Mu Lingyun’s eyes, an intensity he’d never felt even when he had written thousands of words criticizing her.

He was stunned.

After Mu Lingyun finished, she pushed him away forcefully.

Caught off guard, Xiao Kai was pushed by Mu Lingyun and fell to the ground with a thump.

Mu Lingyun didn’t look back at him anymore and walked away.

Jiang Jingxin bent slightly and said to Xiao Kai, “Even though I wish those rumors were true, they are indeed false. You better take her words to heart and stop spreading nonsense. Otherwise, if she wants to kill you, even that noble inside won’t be able to protect you!”

After speaking, Jiang Jingxin also followed Mu Lingyun and left.

Xiao Kai frowned as he watched the two leave, confusion in his eyes. Could it really be that there was nothing between them? Were the rumors indeed false?

“Let’s exchange WeChat contacts,” Mu Lingyun said to the driver Uncle Liang after making a phone call as they arrived outside, then turned to Jiang Jingxin.

Jiang Jingxin immediately took out his phone, displayed the WeChat QR code, and handed it to Mu Lingyun.
