Bun and Paul were both stunned.
Young Master had never used such a vulgar word as "damn".
It surprised them that he should say the word without even thinking. It seemed to Bun that Linda had really influenced Young Master in more ways than she realized. Charles Mu would get furious like a normal man only when he was with Linda.
After taking care of Linda's dress, Charles Mu then took Linda's hand and strode into the food market like nothing had happened earlier.
Linda didn't know what to do or say at all. What on earth was that all about? He definitely scared the people nearby.
And suddenly there was a whisper among the crowd, "Look! Does he look like Charles Mu? That CEO of the Mu company."
"The Mu company? Which one?"
"Is there any other Mu company in SH city?"
Wow...
Some of them started to let out gasps of surprise. The Mu company was far more influential than they could ever imagine. The Mus had been laying their hands on almost every business sector in SH city since decades ago. And the company was further expanded when Charles Mu, the eldest grandson of the clan, took over the family business and gradually got control of the economy and politics of the SH city.
There were countless women who would kill to be able to crawl up to his bed, let alone marrying him.
How on earth would such a popular man show up in a messy food market?
It surprised everyone in the market.
However, they were rather more interested in the woman that Charles Mu was holding. Though wearing little make-up, she was such a breath-taking beauty.
It seemed perfectly normal for people to find Charles Mu, a man with a company that was worth hundreds of millions, show up in the company of gorgeous women every now and then, since in their limited imagination, the rich were always indulging in such dissolute ways of life.
And yet he turned up with a woman in a food market, a place where usually only couples would showed up together.
Was it real?
Rumor had it that the CEO of the Mu company was engaged. But no one knew the real story since it was not officially announced by the Mu clan yet. People were merely gossiping about the whole thing without any solid proof.
But what they just saw might have just confirmed what they had heard.
Actually, by 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the news of their engagement would be spread around the entire city by the media company affiliated to the Mu company. Only that none of them had known of the plan yet.
However, everyone in the SH city would hear about it by the afternoon.
Though it had been an open secret among the celebrities in SH city.
It was not a secret that the Xia clan had plunged into a huge business crisis earlier and was desperate for all the help it could get. And it was the Mu clan that finally pulled the Xias out of the mess. However, in exchange, the Xia clan must find the long-lost eldest daughter back.
Before the news got out, almost every upper-class lady in SH city deemed Charles Mu as their Mr.right and dreamed about marrying him someday.
He was a handsome man with nice figure and a decent family. Everything had made him the most eligible man to marry.
And the most enticing part of marrying Charles was that the Mu company will help secure their family business footings for generations to come.
Therefore, one could easily figured out how many ladys were secretly hoping that Charles Mu wouldn't even like that lady of the Xia clan and then call off the betrothal.
They had never thought the Xia clan could actually find Linda back. And yet Linda was sitting right there in the Xia clan, while the Xias and The Mus were already discussing engagement arrangements.
And the most unbelievable part of the whole thing was Charles Mu seemed quite into that lady of the Xia clan.
It also sparked an intense online discussion for quite a while.
But Charles Mu did not care about any of those things, nor did he ever take it seriously.
