A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 1001 - 997: Mysterious Figures Emerge in Beijing, Crisis Looms Everywhere
Chapter 1001: Chapter 997: Mysterious Figures Emerge in Beijing, Crisis Looms Everywhere
Hearing Ou Shen Zhi’s words, Qian Meng instantly became defensive. He grabbed Ou Shen Zhi and handed him over to a few people behind him, and with a gentle voice, he instructed, “Safely escort him back to the Ou Clan.”
After speaking, Qian Meng chased in the direction where those people had left, wanting to confirm what exactly they were planning to do.
When Qian Meng had chased them down, those from the Shadow Alliance that Ou Shen Zhi had mentioned had completely vanished. He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed Wen Xin’s number, his rationality telling him he had to inform Wen Xin of the situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, he would be the one regretting it.
Wen Xin sat in the car looking at messages on the dark web, his gaze falling on a few purchase orders for rare earths. He unconsciously furrowed his brow, his first instinct telling him that this rare earth business definitely involved people from the Independent State.
“That… rare earths…”
Wen Xin turned to Mu Chengxi, wanting to ask about the rare earths, but before he could speak, his phone suddenly rang.
Wen Xin glanced at his phone. It was a call from Qian Meng. His first reaction was to hang up, but after hesitating for a moment, he apologized to Mu Chengxi, who was looking at him, and answered Qian Meng’s call.
As soon as the call connected, before Wen Xin could speak, he heard Qian Meng’s somewhat anxious voice, “Little princess, we just encountered a group of people at the airport. Ou Shen Zhi recognized them at a glance as members of the Shadow Alliance. I chased after them to confirm, but those people have now completely disappeared.”
Qian Meng spoke excitedly, but he was still vigilant. His voice was not loud, yet Wen Xin could hear him clearly.
“Are you saying that the people from the Shadow Alliance went to Beijing?”
Wen Xin unconsciously tightened his grip on his phone. He had always felt that Old Fox’s unusually calm state was abnormal. He hadn’t expected him to make a move in Beijing.
“I’m not the one saying it; it was those people whom Ou Shen Zhi recognized. You know I haven’t had much interaction with those people, I… ”
At this moment, Qian Meng suddenly felt powerless. He also understood why Wen Xin had asked him to come back. He knew so little about the Independent State and what Wen Xin was dealing with that even if he wanted to help, he wouldn’t know how to proceed.
“Get the airport’s surveillance footage. I need the images of those people as soon as possible. Don’t take any risks for now, just do as I’ve asked.”
Wen Xin’s brows were tightly furrowed as he calmly instructed Qian Meng to carry out the tasks, admitting to himself that he was also not very familiar with the people from the Shadow Alliance, and thus, he was currently in a reactive position.
Wen Xin hung up the phone and coldly said to Moore, who was driving, “Don’t go to the hospital; go home. I need to quickly find out who is controlling the Shadow Alliance.”
After receiving Wen Xin’s order, Moore swiftly made a U-turn at the next intersection and drove in the direction of Wen Xin’s villa.
Wen Xin sat in the car, eyes closed, trying to calm himself as much as possible. He thought about how many people he needed to protect and realized he had to prepare for the worst now. He was too far from Beijing; even if he returned now, it might be too late.
He felt that since those people had appeared in the Beijing airport, their activities were definitely related to him. The people in Beijing were now in danger.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin’s gloomy expression, and his heart clenched fiercely—his little princess was supposed to grow up carefree.
He felt that her originally slender shoulders were bearing far too much.

Mu Chengxi reached out, grasped Wen Xin’s cold hand, and gently pulled her into his embrace, his long arms encircling her.
“Don’t worry, Old Madam Mu and Old Mr. Ou are no longer in Beijing. I’ve already made preparations at the laboratory. If nothing unexpected happens, everyone there should be safe…”
Hearing Mu Chengxi’s words, Wen Xin’s eyes flew open, and she stared at him in shock, her bright eyes fixed intently on his deep eyes, trying to ascertain if Mu Chengxi was deceiving her.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you believe what I said?” Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s shocked eyes, smiled gently with indulgence, leaned his forehead against hers, and kissed her softly, soothing her tense emotions.
“While you were busy, I haven’t been idle. I’ve considered many possibilities; I didn’t want the people in Beijing to become a worry for you, so without your knowledge, I’ve already sent Old Madam Mu and Old Mr. Ou to F State. They are now living very freely there.”
“With Gu Yanzhe there, there won’t be any accidents at the laboratory. All the veterans in the laboratory will be closely protected, so you don’t need to worry too much.”
As Wen Xin listened to Mu Chengxi’s arrangements, her brows remained tightly furrowed. She wondered, since Old Madam Mu was no longer in Beijing, why hadn’t Chen Yian informed her of any news?
Seeing that Wen Xin’s expression hadn’t relaxed after hearing his words but had instead grown more tense, Mu Chengxi also unconsciously furrowed his brows, wondering if he had done something wrong that might have disrupted Wen Xin’s plans.
“That expression… Did I do something wrong?”
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin uncertainly, his tone carrying a hint of caution, worried that he had made a mistake.
“It’s not that you did anything wrong! It’s just that something feels off. When I left Beijing, I had placed all my most trusted people in the city, especially around Old Madam Mu. But when Old Madam Mu left Beijing… he didn’t tell me anything.”
Understanding why Wen Xin was worried, Mu Chengxi’s anxious feelings immediately relaxed. He held her hand in his palm and gently squeezed it.
“Old Madam Mu and Old Mr. Ou left without anyone knowing, and there is still an Old Madam in the Mu family who is my arranged decoy, so it’s normal that your people did not notice anything.”
Saying this, Mu Chengxi took out his phone, opened the photo album, and showed Wen Xin a video.
“I know what worries you most—you have come to see Old Madam Mu as your own grandmother. What you least want to see is anything happening to her. That’s why, before you decided to come to Independent State, I had already made arrangements as best as I could.”
“I was going to tell you, but some issues came up and I didn’t get the chance to speak to you about it earlier, making you worry. That was my mistake…”
