A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 450: Break Your Leg!

In the alley, Mu Shijun looked at the person blocking him and gave an awkward smile, "Brother Bo, it’s you!"The man called Brother Bo had a small braid and a scar across his face, which looked quite intimidating.

He grabbed Mu Shijun’s ear and sneered, "Kid, why are you running?"

"No, Brother Bo, I didn’t see it was you before, I thought it was someone else," Mu Shijun quickly said.

He was already thirty years old, and this submissive demeanor made him look really cowardly.

Brother Bo snorted coldly, "Is the money ready?"

Mu Shijun’s expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Bo, isn’t the repayment deadline tomorrow?"

"Is there a difference between today and tomorrow? Can you magically come up with five million overnight?" Brother Bo sneered.

Mu Shijun felt a jolt in his heart and quickly said, "Yes, I definitely can!"

"Are you messing with me?" Brother Bo yanked his ear harder, "You’re not thinking of skipping town tonight, are you?"

"No, no!" Mu Shijun hurriedly said, "Didn’t I tell you before, I have a sister who’s a celebrity? She’s really wealthy."

"Who are you fooling? You’re the only child in your family, where did this sister come from?"

Mu Shijun explained, "She’s not my biological sister; she’s my uncle’s adopted daughter. She’s very popular now, makes who knows how much in a year. Five million is nothing to her."

"With such a distant relation, you still expect her to help you pay off the debt?" Brother Bo flung him aside and instructed the people next to him, "Break one of his legs."

Mu Shijun staggered and fell to the ground, quickly getting up to plead, "Brother Bo, you have to believe me, she really will help me pay it off."

Brother Bo remained unmoved, as two men approached Mu Shijun and pinned him to the ground.

Someone with a hammer walked up from behind.

Mu Shijun, seeing this scene, turned pale with fright and stammered, "No, Brother Bo, I can pay you tomorrow, don’t cripple my leg."

He struggled, trying to break free.

But the people beside him were well-prepared, holding him firmly.

Suddenly, the sound of a bone cracking in his leg resounded, and the pain spread throughout his body.

"Ah!" He cried out in agony, his throat seemingly about to burst.

Brother Bo squatted down, watching Mu Shijun convulse on the ground, drenched in sweat from the pain.

He patted his face and sighed, "Blame yourself for crossing the wrong person, today is just the interest. If you can’t pay the debt, I’ll make you wish you were dead!"

After speaking, he got up and left with the others.

Mu Shijun whimpered softly, the pain gradually eating away at his consciousness.

But Brother Bo’s words were deeply imprinted in his heart.

That bitch Mu Yan, he must see her dead!

For several days, Mu Yan heard nothing about Mu Shijun, and she was genuinely relieved.

The movie where she starred, "Hope," was released as scheduled.

It was a low-budget art film she filmed at the beginning of the year, finished in less than a month.

With limited funds, she didn’t attend many promotional events.

The movie mainly tells the story of a college girl, Ai Ke, who goes to a mountain village to teach with aspirations, overcoming a series of psychological and physical challenges, ultimately dedicating her life to the mountainous region.

On the premiere day’s early morning, Mu Yan took the initiative to invite Jiang Jingheng to watch the movie.

It was their first movie date, and both felt quite novel about it.

Now that Mu Yan was well-known, to avoid being mobbed, she had to go out in full disguise.

She wore a hat and mask, covering her face completely, holding a movie essential—popcorn.

Jiang Jingheng, dressed casually, wore a mask and hat like Mu Yan, holding a large cup of cola in one hand and holding hers with the other, as they entered.

But with their outfits, they were bound to attract attention and raise suspicion!
