Married to his secret crush

A company to handle, a legacy to protect and a husband to find, Li Shuang had enough on her plate. Her grandfather gave her a deadline to find a man and she shortlisted some decent guys. She had to evaluate them and settle on the perfect husband all the while managing her responsibilities as the CEO of Dream Entertainment.

But the last thing she expected was to come across a certain film emperor splayed on her balcony, dead drunk, looking nothing less than a lost Prince.

So, if you may ask, who was Mu Shen? The infamous Film Emperor who just moved in next door after a cheating scandal. Fame, money, and women. He had all in plenty. And he was used to that life of his until he came across this woman who won't spare him a second glance. Cold and emotionless, Li Shuang was the kind of woman who was nothing less than a thrill, a conquest.

She was dangerous to him and he knew it from all the times their eyes met before. Even though his heart slipped a few times, he was certain that he wanted to stay away from her but the last thing he expected was to end up as her neighbor.

Eyes met and sparks flew... on his side of course. He knew the little tricks to wear her down, sexually and emotionally but oh, was he sure about it?

Was the infamous playboy ever willing to be tied down? Or would the cold and emotionless CEO accept her 'feelings', the thing that she detested the most?

When both the people subconsciously rejected the idea of love, who will be the one to give in first? Or was it all bound to go down in flames?

...

''Young Master, we need to release a statement. You can atleast detail me about what happened,'' Manager Huang was on the verge of tears as he glanced at the man through the rearview mirror.

Mu Shen pulled down his shades and tilted his head down before winking at Manager Huang, ''You need to chill, Manager Huang. Look at the fine lines on your face.''

''Young Master, did you really cheat on your girlfriend? Why did you keep me in dark about it? You should have told me beforehand. Your scandal is hitting every tabloid, and every newspaper. You should have told me that you were cheating on your girlfriend...''

''What then?" Mu Shen interrupted tha man, ''Were you planning to bury the matter before the media finds out?"

''I...'' Manager Huang did not know how to answer the question because he would have indeed done that if he knew about it.

Mu Shen massaged his brows, ''How long has it been since you are around me?"

''It has been more than two decades,'' the middle aged man answered, ''I used to be your caretaker but when you decided to join the entertainment industry, Master Mu asked me to be your manager since I was qualified for it and you rejected the idea of joining any entertainment industry.''

''Come on now. I didn't ask for your bio-data,'' Mu Shen crossed one leg above the other as he leaned back on the seat before looking out of the window, ''What I meant to say is you know me long enough to know that I don't do relationships and I don't do LOVE,'' he emphasized on the last word.

''Then the cheating scandal...''

''Do you think I lack women and I need to lie to one so that I can sleep with the other? Or do you believe I have so much of leisure on my hand?" He pressed his chin on his knuckles and glanced at the man with narrowed eyes.

Manager Huang gulped, ''So, that means the claims made by that woman were false.... She is trying to frame you. Young Master, why did you keep quiet about this? We could have released a statement before this matter escalated but now that things are like this, people are assuming that you are guilty.''

''A few months ago, do you remember the pregnant lady who claimed in front of the media that the baby in her womb is mine? It's nothing new for me to get involved in scandals. Until and unless my career is ending, don't ask me to respond to them,'' Mu Shen said in a bored voice.

''But Young Master, Master and Madam are worried....''

Mu Shen paused when he heard that, ''Alright, then wait for the right time. After that woman's crocodile tears dry up and she stops her scripts, you can release the statement.''

''Yes, Young Master.''

''Is this neighborhood peaceful?" Mu Shen asked.

Manager Huang nodded, ''I have looked into the place before. You will definitely like this neighborhood. Glory Apartment is filled with reporters so we can't go there at this moment.''

''How troublesome!" Mu Shen leaned back on the seat before closing his eyes. Because of the scandal, reporters were flocking in front of his place like birds so in the end, his manager decided to shift him to another neighborhood.

''I've heard that the CEO of Dream Entertainment lives there.''

Mu Shen who was busy massaging his forehead, paused when he heard that. A beautiful face flashed in his mind and he could see those icy expressions even in his imagination.

''As much as you hate these entertainment agencies, and their CEOs, but Young Master you should restrain yourself from showing your hatred openly. We don't want another scandal as of now because this person is not someone to be messed with. She is the granddaughter of the aristrocatic Yu Family in Beijing,'' Manager Huang sighed.

Ever since the Yu Family stepped down from their position and Li Shuang took over the company, Dream Entertainment has been flourishing.

''I see,'' Mu Shen shook off her face from his mind before he closed his eyes.

Manager Huang was a bit wary. He would have preferred if his Young Master winked or laughed. This 'I see' was scary. He wasn't going to cause chaos, was he?
