A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 734 - 733: Taking the Initiative to Be Friendly, Making it Incomprehensible and Unpredictable
Chapter 734: Chapter 733: Taking the Initiative to Be Friendly, Making it Incomprehensible and Unpredictable
“Is it Miss Jiang who is eager to use these public opinions to sabotage Mr. Mu’s feelings toward Wen Xin?”
“However, if I remember correctly, the last time Miss Jiang’s scheme was completely useless. Not only did it fail to destroy their relationship, but the two of them even made an official announcement. I think Mr. Mu should thank Miss Jiang for her help…”
“Miss Jiang, do you think I’m right?”
Qian Meng looked at Jiang Linyan with a careless expression, his eyes full of mockery.
Jiang Linyan was harshly hit where it hurt by Qian Meng’s merciless mocking, and she became somewhat uncomfortable. She grabbed her handbag by her side and stood up.
“Sorry, Ms. Mu, I have something else to attend to. I won’t be joining you for the meal. I’m leaving first!”
After speaking, Jiang Linyan hurriedly left the restaurant.
Watching Jiang Linyan’s retreating figure, Qian Meng sighed softly, “I thought this woman would have gained some skills after going away for a while, but her methods of instigation are still so despicable. It’s disgusting.”
After finishing, Qian Meng looked up at the two people staring at him and raised an eyebrow, “What? Do you two have any objections?”
“No objections, just quite surprised. Hasn’t Young Master Qian always been archenemies with Mu Chengxi? Why are you suddenly speaking up for Wen Xin?”
Mu Chengxu’s eyes became unconsciously stern when he mentioned Wen Xin. He looked at Qian Meng, as if he were looking at a rival of Mu Chengxi, ready to take action at any moment.
“Miss Mu, you don’t need to be so hostile towards me. I, Qian Meng, might have done many scoundrel things in the past, but I reconciled with Mu Chengxi not so long ago. There’s no enmity between us anymore, and I wouldn’t engage in undermining others.”
“From now on, when Ms. Mu meets me, she need not be so guarded. If you’re not assured, you can confirm with Mu Chengxi… Beijing is chaotic enough as it is already. You wouldn’t want Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin to be unsupported, would you?”
Qian Meng spoke very clearly, and Mu Chengxu was unconsciously shocked by his words, realizing that she wasn’t the only one sensing the changes in Beijing’s situation…
“I misunderstood you, Young Master Qian. I respect…”
“Ms. Mu, it’s offputting to hear you talk like that. Just treat me as your younger brother. It should be me offering you a drink!”
Qian Meng hurriedly stood up to stop Mu Chengxu’s gesture and respectfully picked up his glass of wine, while Mu Chengxu made a respectful toast gesture.
In Beijing, there are few who could make Young Master Qian bow, and Mu Chengxu was already one of them. This realization was so surprising to Mu Chengxu that she was baffled by the meal.
After lunch, Mu Chengxu left in Yuan Junye’s car. Having had a few drinks, she felt a bit dizzy and lazily leaned against Yuan Junye.
“Do you think what Qian Meng said is credible?”
Since Mu Chengxu knew that Yuan Junye was connected to Wen Xin, she felt that he should at least have some insider information from Wen Xin’s side.
Yuan Junye, when asked, heard Mu Chengxu’s words and smiled gently, “Do you think I should be privy to such internal information? But I think Qian Meng was quite serious today. Just from his attitude towards Jiang Linyan, you can tell he was serious about protecting Wen Xin.”
“As for whether he has reconciled with Mu Chengxi or not, that you’d have to ask Mu Chengxi himself!”
“That’s true, Mu Chengxi has always had his own ideas about doing things, no one can stop him, no one can change him. Since Qian Meng dares to say it, I dare to believe it. There’s no need to verify with Mu Chengxi, after all, the Qian family can’t do anything too out of the ordinary.”
Mu Chengxu was lying in Yuan Junye’s arms, holding his waist, listening to the rhythmic beating of Yuan Junye’s heart, and suddenly she spoke coquettishly.
“When do you plan to come home with me to meet my parents? Mu Chengxi is already going to marry Wen Xin. As his sister, do I have to get married only after they do?”
Listening to Mu Chengxu’s aggrieved and coquettish tone, Yuan Junye smiled tenderly and indulgently, “When do you think would be appropriate? If you want to take me home, I’ll go with you to meet your parents.”
“Then… never mind, let’s wait until Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin come back. With their support, my grandma and parents won’t make things difficult for you…”
Mu Chengxu found a comfortable position in Yuan Junye’s arms and sighed helplessly, wishing she were just an ordinary person, so she wouldn’t have so many worries.
But she just had to be the Mu family’s daughter, and her marriage was irreversibly tied to her family.
Although no one demanded she marry someone from a noble family, Yuan Junye’s status as an illegitimate child would still be problematic. They could only wait for Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin to come back to bolster their support, so her grandparents and her parents would accept him.
Yuan Junye gently brushed the hair from Mu Chengxu’s forehead and smiled softly, “The former Yuan family was something I didn’t want, but if it’s for you, even a fight for it might be worthwhile!”
When Jiang Linyan returned home, she threw her handbag angrily onto the sofa. Old Master Jiang, who was browsing the news on a tablet while sitting on the sofa, was startled by Jiang Linyan’s actions.
“What’s wrong with you now? Didn’t we agree that you need to control your emotions? To cooperate properly with the work at Kunshan Group? You haven’t even stabilized your job yet, and you’re already getting angry?”
“Grandpa, you always criticize me. I was slighted outside; that’s why I’m like this!” Jiang Linyan sat down on the sofa, took the lemon water the butler handed her, took a sip, then slammed it down on the table.
“Today, that Qian Meng, I don’t know what got into him, deliberately targeting me. I finally got a dinner with Mu Chengxu arranged, and he just ruined it like that, I’m so angry!”
Jiang Linyan’s dinner with Mu Chengxu was not just about getting closer to him, but also to probe from him some news about the Mu Group’s plan to start a chip project currently circulating in Beijing.
But before she could speak, Qian Meng had already disrupted it, and she couldn’t help but be angry.
“Qian Meng?” Old Master Jiang perked up when he heard Jiang Linyan mention Qian Meng, put down his tablet, and looked at Jiang Linyan whose makeup was spoiled by anger.
“You mean Qian Meng deliberately targeted you? For what reason?”
“All because of that damn girl Wen Xin! I just mentioned his visit to Jingda University to see Wen Xin, and he started targeting me, even digging up things I did in the past…”
Jiang Linyan felt increasingly wronged as she spoke. Previously, although she and Qian Meng were not exactly on good terms, he would not embarrass her like this.
