Chapter 241 The Unspoken Rules
Mu Zhi threw a mischievous glance at Lu Jinye. Her lips curved upwards uncontrollably as she said,
“Thank you.”
The both of them then went down to the dining room. While they were sitting across from each other to
have lunch, Mu Zhi raised her head to look at Lu Jinye. “Do you have anything on tonight?”
Lu Jinye responded with furrowed brows, “Just let me know if you need anything.”
Mu Zhi let out a cheerful smile, “You used to be in the investment business and have invested in some
agencies, right? Do you think you can hook me up with an agent?”
“You?”
Lu Jinye knitted his brows, asking, “Are you planning to become a celebrity?”
“Yeah, I’d like to explore the entertainment circle.”
“Why?”
Lu Jinye was browsing the latest financial news on his phone casually while speaking to Mu Zhi.
But after hearing what Mu Zhi had to say, he jerked his head upwards and asked her with a stern face.
“They say the entertainment industry brings good money. I want to make money!”
Mu Zhi stared at Lu Jinye with sparkling eyes.
At this point, Lu Jinye had surmised that Mu Zhi was just fooling around. He lowered his head to finish
the rest of the financial news article as he said, “Are you saying that Lu Jinye can’t afford to provide for
you?”
“The highest-paid job in the world is to become Lu Jinye’s wife!”
Lu Jinye bragged solemnly.
Mu Zhi heaved a sorrowful sigh.
By the looks of it, I can’t convince him with a random excuse.
Thus, she said to him disgruntledly, “Ever since I become Lu Jinye’s wife, I realized that paparazzi tend
to keep a very close eye on wealthy families. I’ve made the headlines multiple times now. Since I have
the headline potential, I figured I should capitalize on it and contribute to the family.”
“Please, pretty please?”
Mu Zhi leaned towards Lu Jinye in a coquettish manner.

Lu Jinye tended to buy into her coquettish behaviors. Moreover, Lu Jinye had always known that Mu
Zhi was hungry for money, and he loved it.
“So, you’re planning to pocket some money with our rumors?”
“With the money, I can potentially be your sugar mom, honey!”
Mu Zhi looked at Lu Jinye seriously!
Her eyes were screaming sincerity!
Staring at her, Lu Jinye was slightly astonished.
“Sure! I’ll get Linda to handle it for you, but our wedding is only a week away. Are you sure about
making your debut during this period?”
“Yeah!”
Mu Zhi gave Lu Jinye an unwavering look!
She was not intimidated by the rumors revolving around her and Lu Junnian. Instead, she explained
somberly, “The entire entertainment world currently has their eyes on you, me, and Lu Junnian. Every
day I hear people jeering at me, calling me a shameless bitch. I can’t take it anymore, I feel so sad!”
Mu Zhi rubbed her eyes adorably to express her misery.
Lu Jinye almost burst out giggling.
Mu Zhi then continued, “So why don’t I be a celebrity instead? Since they’re going to publish rumors
about me anyway, I could use the free publicity to build up a reputation that saves us a hefty sum of
money to promote myself. If they insist that I’ve been hooking up with another man, I’ll just bring you
out to show them how loving we are.”
“Honey, don’t worry. This is exactly what you did earlier to provide some exposure to the celebrities
under your company. I’ll personally make sure the graphic designer retouches your photo to turn you
into the most charming man in the world.”
Lu Jinye uttered a snort, “Look at me, do you think any of my photos needs editing?”
Instead of discussing Mu Zhi’s debut, Lu Jinye was focused on his appearance.
Did that mean he agreed to Mu Zhi’s debut?
Mu Zhi jumped for joy and peck Lu Jinye on the face. “Thank you honey, let me wear some makeup
now!”
Finishing what she had to say, Mu Zhi nimbly turned around and dashed upstairs to put some makeup
on.
Meanwhile, Lu Jinye took out his phone and made a call to his agency.
He requested them to customize a package for Mu Zhi.
Then, both of them headed in separate ways. Mu Zhi went for an interview at Lu Jinye’s agency while
Lu Jinye set off to his company for work.
Mu Zhi especially rocked up in sprightful makeup. After all, she had no on-screen talent. All she had
was Lu Jinye as her husband. In that case, she could only rebut as a talentless crony.
She examined her body to determine if there was any part where people might be attracted to, and all
she could think of was her looks and soft temper.
It was difficult to allow her temperament to get noticed in a short time. Thus, youthful makeup was her
last resort!
Lu Jinye recommended Mu Zhi to join the MD Media Group.
Mu Zhi came to MD Media and told the front desk receptionist that she was there for an interview, but
the receptionist rolled her eyes at Mu Zhi.
“Pfft, you think you’re qualified to get an interview with our director? Why don’t you check yourself out?
You might be young and pretty, but… That’s all you got.”
“I suggest you forget about meeting our director, let me give you a name card, get plastic surgery
before we talk!”
The receptionist glanced at Mu Zhi scornfully before tossing a name card at Mu Zhi.
Mu Zhi held the card in her hands. Upon realizing that it was a plastic surgery clinic, Mu Zhi almost lost
her wits.
Plastic surgery? What the hell?
“Are you saying that I’m pretty, but not pretty enough? Do you mean that I need to fix my looks before
joining the entertainment industry?”
Xiao Qingqing was a famous superstar. Mu Zhi had seen her in person. Apart from an ethereal
ambiance, Mu Zhi could not find anything special about her.
Mu Zhi wondered to herself that Xiao Qingqing and her rocked different styles of beauty. She
acknowledged that she wasn’t the prettiest girl in the world, but she didn’t think that she needed plastic
surgery.
“You don’t have the influencer look. You need to first get a double eyelid surgery, then get a jawline
surgery, oh and don’t forget to get a nose job to cap it off.”
“…”
Mu Zhi was stunned to silence.
“Why don’t you let me in for a discussion with Director Wen? Perhaps Director Wen might have a
different idea?”
“Hoho, do you think Director Wen attends to random people like you?”
The receptionist suddenly put up a peevish attitude.
The receptionist’s contemptuous behavior exasperated Mu Zhi in the beginning. Her condescending
bellow was the last straw for Mu Zhi!
“Countless ladies believe that the entertainment industry is easy money. Don’t be misled to believe that
you’re qualified to earn a spot just because you’re decent-looking. Listen, quit dreaming! Wake the hell
up!”
“Why don’t you look at the successful stars in the industry? All of them are influential in their way. What
do you have?”
The woman glanced at Mu Zhi’s breasts.
“Actually, you could get a boob job done and sell your body to advance in the circle!”
“Are… Are you saying that I could get into the industry as long as I have backing?”
Mu Zhi understood that every industry was dark in their own regards, but she could not accept those
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwho emit nothing but negative energy, regardless of what industry it was!
Everybody could get a chance to progress if they worked hard enough. But there were always some
who were endemic to the unspoken rules!
She despised people like this!
Thus, she patted herself on the chest and proclaimed, “I don’t need a boob job. I’m sure some guys are
fond of these mosquito bites!”
