A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 818 - : The Prince of the Capital’s Love-Struck Behavior is Confirmed
Chapter 819: Chapter 818: The Prince of the Capital’s Love-Struck Behavior is Confirmed
This time, no matter who initiated the attack, she was not going to be lenient; even if it disrupted the balance in Beijing, her sister’s life was worth much more than that.
When Mu Chengxi came out from the bathroom, he saw Wen Xin lying on the bed with a fierce look in her eyes. He slightly furrowed his brows and walked over to tuck the blanket around Wen Xin and then bent down to give her a gentle kiss on the forehead.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already sent people to capture Jiang Linyan. Once she’s caught, I won’t give her another chance to escape,” he said.
Mu Chengxi’s voice was soothing as he reassured Wen Xin, standing there hoping she would focus only on healing. He could take care of everything else for her.
Wen Xin soon felt tired due to her physical condition, and after she fell asleep, Mu Chengxi escorted Wen Huai and Sun Ning out of the ward. When he passed by Xiao Mi, who showed no intention of leaving, Mu Chengxi looked at her with a slightly furrowed brow, “What’s the matter? Is there something else?”
“I want to stay here and take care of Sister Xin. I’ve learned nursing, and taking care of her would be very convenient,” Xiao Mi said, her head lowered, her voice timid.
“That’s not necessary. I can take care of Wen Xin. You and Wen Huai should both go back to school. Since Wen Xin sent you to school, your job is to study hard. I’m here to take good care of her,” he insisted.
Mu Chengxi didn’t give Xiao Mi the chance to speak again. He just gave her a cold glance and signaled to Wen Huai to take her away.
Knowing Mu Chengxi’s character and that he, like Wen Xin, didn’t appreciate being rejected, Wen Huai came forward and gently took Xiao Mi’s arm.
“Alright, go back to school. With your brother-in-law here, there won’t be any problems,” Wen Huai said.
Mu Chengxi, who had been lost in thought with his head bowed, suddenly looked up sharply at Wen Huai at the mention of the word “brother-in-law.”
Wen Huai seemed to realize why Mu Chengxi’s attitude had changed so quickly, and said very seriously, “Brother-in-law, I leave my sister in your care. Please take good care of her!”
“Sure, don’t worry. Do well in your competition abroad, and if there’s any issue, give Mu Nan…”
At the mention of Mu Nan, Mu Chengxi hesitated for a moment. He suddenly remembered that he had called Mu Nan yesterday, asking him to return to Beijing.
“Call Muxi instead. I will send Muxi’s mobile number to your phone later,” he said.
Mu Chengxi gently patted Wen Huai on the shoulder. It was clear that being called “brother-in-law” pleased Mu Chengxi, changing even the tone of his voice.
Sun Ning watched the transformation in Mu Chengxi and couldn’t help but chuckle to himself, suddenly finding Mu Chengxi a bit lovesick…
…
Xiao Ci hurriedly ran into Wen Yunuo’s office from outside, bursting in without even knocking on the door.
Old Master Wen, who was on a video call and saw Xiao Ci barging in, furrowed his brows unconsciously and a flash of coldness swept across his eyes.
“What’s with the lack of manners? Don’t you know to knock before entering?” he chastised.
“CEO Wen…” Xiao Ci looked at Wen Yunuo, his brow involuntarily furrowed, and his face bore some difficulty.
“Get out, I have matters to attend to here. Wait until I’m finished, then you can come back in.”
Wen Yunuo coldly turned Xiao Ci away, who had originally wanted to say something more, but didn’t dare to disregard Wen Yunuo’s order and turned to leave.
The Old Fox on the video watched Wen Yunuo with a satisfied smile, “You’ve handled recent matters quite well, aside from the Jiang family’s issue—I’m fairly content. Has there been any news about that girl? Is she dead?”
“No news yet, Mu Chengxi is keeping information under tight lock, there’s no chance to get close. However, I’ve had Xiao Mi go to Wen Xin to take care of her. I’ve heard that Xiao Mi has already gained Wen Xin’s trust, and she even gave her the Wen surname. I don’t know why she would choose to trust Xiao Mi.”
Upon hearing Wen Yunuo mentioning that Wen Xin gave Xiao Mi the Wen surname, the eyes of the Old Fox unconsciously narrowed.
“Did you arrange for Xiao Mi to meet with Wen Xin? Why set up a meeting between those two? Xiao Mi had just managed to infiltrate Mu Chengxi’s base—do you know how much of a loss that is for us?”
The Old Fox burst into anger in an instant, leaving even Wen Yunuo unsure of why the Old Fox had suddenly lost his temper…
“Grandfather, this was not arranged by me. It was Wen Xin who encountered her at Mu Chengxi’s base. For some reason, Wen Xin took a liking to her at first sight and brought her back to Beijing. The subsequent events were completely beyond my expectation.”
Wen Yunuo hurriedly explained the situation concerning Xiao Mi to the Old Fox. He didn’t know much about Xiao Mi, only that his grandfather had adopted her from the Welfare Institute, and he was unclear about other matters.
“If you get a chance to contact her, have her find a way to reach out to me, I have something to ask her.”
The Old Fox grew visibly nervous upon thinking that Xiao Mi had been in contact with Wen Xin, feeling that his secrets were on the verge of being exposed. Before Wen Xin could discover the events of the past, he wanted to secure the items he was after.
He could not allow any errors, or else years of his scheming would go to waste.
The situation in Independent State wasn’t looking good for him lately, with the Taros family showing signs of rising. Moore, young and reckless, didn’t take him seriously, constantly acting against him, and it was already causing him much irritation.
“Also, a word of advice—don’t underestimate Mu Chengxi. If he could take action for Wen Xin in Independent State, blow up the Wen family, he could go after you in Beijing just as well. If things are exposed, don’t forget to find a suitable scapegoat.”
Old Fox Wen raised his hand to rub his painfully throbbing temples. He had initially thought that Wen Xin’s misfortune was a good thing, but now he was having second thoughts, even finding it somewhat terrifying. Acting against Wen Xin in this unstable situation was not a good move.
“Grandfather, I’ve said many times, it wasn’t me who arranged the incident with Wen Xin; someone else is responsible.”
Wen Yunuo, not wanting his ambitions to be discovered by the Old Fox, rushed to explain and push the blame onto others.
Although he had commissioned Jiang Linyan to act on this matter, there was no evidence linking it to him, and so he was not afraid of being implicated.
“I don’t care who did it, but Wen Yunuo, remember this: you need to complete the task I’ve given you as quickly as possible. I don’t have time to wait for you. If you can’t do it, I won’t hesitate to find someone else to take over the unfinished business!”
After issuing the warning, the Old Fox cut off the video call without giving Wen Yunuo a chance to respond.
