Jiang Qiudie felt that she had been a bit unlucky lately.
She was clearly one of the most popular campus beauties at Qingchuan University's Drama Academy back then. Everyone thought she would be the next rising star in the entertainment industry.
However, after struggling in the industry for over a year, her career still hadn't taken off. Forget about being a big star; she was nothing more than an invisible figure at the bottom tier!
To make matters worse, due to various pitfalls, she was now burdened with over a million in debt and could barely afford three meals a day!
This time, she had finally managed to sneak into the backstage of the welcome party using her identity as a graduate of Qingchuan University. She wanted to visit a well-known teacher in the industry, hoping to ask him to write a song for her.
Unfortunately, not only was she rejected, but the teacher also called security to throw her out. In a panic, Jiang Qiudie turned and almost collided with a man walking towards her.
"Ouch—"
The girl couldn't stop in time and bumped straight into his broad chest. The impact caused her to feel a slight pain, and her white baseball cap, which was meant to conceal her identity, was knocked off. Her long hair fell down, revealing her delicate and charming face. Just as she was about to fall backward, the man caught her by the waist.
His deep, magnetic voice rang in her ears. "Are you okay?"
Mu An had timely caught the girl, preventing her from falling backward.

—————
Name: Jiang Qiudie
Identity: Heroine
Fortune: 15,000
Basic Information: A graduate of Qingchuan University, once the campus beauty, currently an unknown small-time star. She initially wanted to use the welcome party to ask a well-known teacher to write a song for her but was ruthlessly humiliated and had security called to throw her out. Living in dire straits and lacking money, she once shared a rental with the real young master Wang Zhe and was his white moonlight.
—————
'The heroine related to the real young master Wang Zhe?'
Mu An pondered how to proceed.
On the other side, after the initial panic, Jiang Qiudie looked up and saw Mu An's incredibly handsome face. She blinked her eyes, especially feeling her sensitive waist where his large hand rested, causing her cheeks to flush. To be honest, she usually kept herself pure and had never been this close to a man before!

"There she is! Grab her!"
At that moment, the security guards who had been chasing her caught up. A hint of panic flashed in Jiang Qiudie's beautiful eyes. Although she was a small-time star, she had some fame. If her fans found out about her sneaking in and getting thrown out, she would lose all her face.

Fortunately, Mu An stepped in. He glanced at the two security guards who had approached and said calmly, "I'll handle this; you guys go do something else!"
"Who the hell are you? Why... Ouch! Captain, what are you doing?"
A young security guard was about to say something when he received a fierce blow to the back of his head from the security captain beside him. Not only that, but he also scolded the young guard.
"Can't you see? Is this how you talk to Young Master Mu? Hurry up and apologize!"
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together, looking at Mu An with a flattering expression.
"Sorry, Young Master Mu, he's new and doesn't understand the rules yet!"
"You are...?"
Mu An glanced at him indifferently.
"I'm the red-haired guy you beat up back then! It was during..."
The security captain, Hong Haofa, had a proud look on his face, as if being beaten by Mu An was a great honor. This also triggered some memories for Mu An. He remembered that this guy was one of the leaders among those he had paid to beat up Bai Zihao back then. He didn't expect him to have fallen to this level now.
To be cautious and adhering to the principle of not letting any potential profit slip away, the man casually looked at him and found that he was not the main character. Just slightly taller than an average person, he lost interest.
"Hmm!"
Mu An waved his hand casually. Red-haired Hong Haofa was also a master at reading the wind; seeing that Mu An had no desire to continue the conversation, he immediately pulled the young guard away.
Of course, before leaving, both of them didn't forget to bow repeatedly in apology.
"Boss, who exactly is this Young Master Mu?"
"You don't know Young Master Mu? He's the famous young master of Tianmu Group! Back in the day, I worked for him..."
The two whispered to each other as they gradually walked away.
"It's fine now."
Mu An voluntarily released his hold on the girl. Jiang Qiudie felt a bit surprised inside. On one hand, she was surprised that his identity seemed to be quite significant.
On the other hand, she was astonished that he could remain so composed in front of her, knowing how alluring her face was.
Since stepping into the entertainment industry, she had received many hints from powerful figures wanting to exploit her. Their greedy gazes made her feel as if they wanted to swallow her whole.
However, she had resolutely rejected all those advances, which was one reason for her current struggles.
This was the first time she had met someone as calm as Mu An, with clear eyes and no hint of excessive desire.
"Be careful next time."
Mu An kindly reminded her and left without looking back. He didn't ask for her contact information, didn't take the opportunity to make unreasonable demands, and didn't even ask for her name.
Such behavior left Jiang Qiudie even more puzzled.
'Is it a strategy of feigned indifference? Or does he really... not care?'
She bent down to pick up her baseball cap and glanced at the man's retreating figure, lost in thought.
[Curious emotional fluctuation from the girl +22, congratulations, you have received the reward [Fortune +22]!]
…..
Feigning indifference?
Mu An certainly wouldn't use such a low-level tactic. He hadn't been a sycophant for many years. For him now, if he truly wanted, it was possible to have her tied to his bed tonight.
But that was not what Mu An wanted.
He already had quite a few stunning heroines by his side, so there was no need to think with his lower body.
Unless someone truly moved his heart, no matter how many heroines there were, they were just a gold mine for him to farm emotional rewards.
Naturally, he couldn't indulge those wild gold mines. As the old saying goes:
"I, the great villain, have no emotions!"
And around the next corner, the emotionless villain Mu An was suddenly stopped by a delicate hand that reached out to him.
It wasn't that he didn't know there was someone here.
With his cultivation level, as long as he wanted to, no one could escape his perception.
It was precisely because he knew who the other person was that he deliberately allowed the other party to "succeed."
