Dad, I know who to contact. Lets not disturb Master Xi; this doctor is just as capable. Saying this, Gu Yanzhe grabbed his phone and stepped away to call Ling Yichen, hoping he could bring Nan Xu over.
Once he got through, he heard the bustling noise on Ling Yichens end, sparking a glimmer of hope.
Are you still out? Is Master Xi there?
Hes not here. After dinner, Master Xi took Miss Wen back to rest. Are you looking for Master Xi? His mood was pretty bad; its best not to bother him right now. Justy low for a bit.
Ling Yichen kindly advised Gu Yanzhe, suggesting it was better not to provoke Master Xi, as nothing was more important to him than Wen Xin.
Im not looking for Master Xi. I was hoping to find Nan Xu. Gu Xiang has be emotionally distressed and fallen into aa. She mentioned being brainwashed by Wei Shisheng before passing out. Can Nan Xu check on her?
Brainwashed? Since when did Wei Shisheng have that kind of skill? Are you sure Gu Xiang isnt lying to you? Ling Yichen was skeptical of Wei Shishengs abilities, finding the story hard to believe.
Im not sure, but Gu Xiang definitely met with Wei Shisheng at noon. She likely discussed Wen Xin with her, but Wei didnt reveal that Wen Xin is Master Xis girlfriend.
Hearing this, Ling Yichen grew more serious, pondering for a moment before saying, Send me the hospital address. Ill bring Nan Xu over to take a look.
Alright, Ill send it now. Please hurry! At this moment, Gu Yanzhe could only rely on Ling Yichen, unsure of where else to turn on such short notice.
After hanging up, Ling Yichen sat next to Nan Xu, who nodded in agreement after hearing about the symptoms. It sounds like she was hypnotized, and the hypnosis wasnt properly resolved. She received a strong shock, leading to thea. Lets go check on her.
Nan Xu picked up her coat and bag, and together with Ling Yichen, they left the private room.
After their departure, the atmosphere deted, and the gathering quickly dispersed without the presence of the key figures.
Twenty minutester, Ling Yichen and Nan Xu arrived at a private hospital in the capital, taking the elevator to Gu Xiangs floor.
Young Master Ling Gus parents were surprised to see Ling Yichen, not expecting him to be the one Gu Yanzhe had called.
Uncle Gu, Aunt Gu, How is Gu Xiang doing? Ling Yichen asked upon seeing them.
The situation is bad. She shes in aa, and we have no idea why it suddenly happened Gus father looked visibly aged, his previous vitality vanished, seeming to age years in moments.
Dont worry, Uncle Gu. Ive brought a doctor with us. Let her examine Gu
Xiang, Ling Yichen reassured, introducing Nan Xu to the worried parents.
Nan Xu nodded slightly to Gus parents without saying much and headed straight for Gu Xiangs room, where numerous doctors stood conducting various tests, all ending in headshakes, unable to determine the cause of thea.
Check her brain waves. Her condition is likely a result of the hypnosis Nan
Xu suggested calmly from the doorway, confident in her diagnosis after seeing Gu Xiangs condition, indicating that she was indeed hypnotized, resulting in bacsh.
Who are you?
Nan Xu produced her medical license from her bag, clearly stating her identity.
Upon seeing her credentials, the medical staff were taken aback. Dr. Nan, weve heard of you. Well prepare the brain wave examination equipment right away.
Thank you. Nan Xu had expected to exin herself further, but her reputation in the capital meant her credentials spoke for themselves.
The medical team, armed with various devices, exited Gu Xiangs room, leaving it quiet. Nan Xu approached Gu Xiang, snapped her fingers, and saw a slight frown on Gu Xiangs face, further confirming her diagnosis.
The hospital quickly prepared the brain wave examination equipment, and nurses wheeled Gu Xiang into the examination room while Nan Xu observed from another room. The brain waves indicated a deepatose state,
suggesting Gu Xiang was in a vegetative state.
Exiting the examination room, Nan Xu checked the time. There were still three hours left. If she missed the best time for treatment, she would probably never wake up.
The patients condition is grim. Shes in a deepa, effectively in a vegetative state
Upon hearing Nan Xus words, Gus mother copsed against her husband, unable to believe her daughters condition.
Is there no hope? Gu Yanzhe asked after a long hesitation, his voice hoarse, unprepared for the situation to have escted so severely.
There might still be a chance. Wen Xin could have a solution
Nan Xu hesitated to say more, knowing Wen Xins clear distinction between love and hate. She might not choose to intervene, but seeing the distress of Gus parents and Gu Yanzhe, she reconsidered.
Ill plead with Master Xi and Miss Wen. Even if it costs me my life, I must save Gu Xiang! Gu Yanzhe dered, turning to leave. As he reached the elevator, Nan Xu stopped him.
Wait, let me call her. If she agrees toe, then she will. If not, we shouldnt me her. After all, the fault doesnt lie with her.
Nan Xu then took her phone to call Wen Xin, hoping to avoid Gu Yanzhe resorting to drastic measures that would waste her efforts to maintain peace..

Waking up to the vibration of the phone on the nightstand, Wen Xin felt a bit irritated in Mu Chengxis arms.
Sensing Wen Xins mood, Mu Chengxi hugged her tighter, rolled over to her side of the bed, and reached for her phone.
His dark eyes slowly opened, and seeing the caller ID disying Nan Xus name, he gently pinched Wen Xins delicate ear and smiled indulgently. Its Nan Xu calling. Do you want to answer it?
Hearing Nan Xus name made Wen Xin more alert. She nodded against Mu Chengxis chest, so he answered the call and held the phone to her ear. Whats up? Though Wen Xin sounded weary, her voice betrayed no sign of fatigue.
Did I wake you? Ive encountered a rather tricky case here. A patient has been hypnotized, then became suddenly alert after a shock and is now in a deep
After hearing Nan Xu out, Wen Xin sat up from Mu Chengxis embrace, took her phone, and asked, Hypnotized? Who is it?
Its Gu Xiang. She was hypnotized, and it seems quite severe, almost like brainwashing. Thats why she hired people to trouble you. After experiencing a shock, she momentarily regained consciousness before falling into aa.
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow at the mention of Gu Xiang. Now fully awake, she found the predicament of the person who had orchestrated an attack on her quite intriguing.
Give me the hospitals address. Ille over now.
Twenty minutester, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi arrived at the hospital. Gus parents greeted Mu Chengxi with respect, and Gu Yanzhe hurried forward.
Master Xi, Miss Wen.
Lets see the patient first, Wen Xin said tersely, sparing no extra words.
On the drive over, Nan Xu had told her they had only three hours before Gu Xiang would enter a brain-dead state.
Ill show you the way. Nan Xu approached from the other end of the hallway, having just left the brainwave monitoring room, noting Gu Xiangs increasingly erratic brainwaves.
Wen Xin took her backpack from Mu Chengxi and followed Nan Xu.
Gus parents and Gu Yanzhe watched them leave, wanting to follow but hesitant and embarrassed to do so in Mu Chengxis presence.
Ling Yichen, sitting nearby, noted their conflicted indecision and spoke softly, Lets all go and see how Gu Xiang is doing.
Mu Chengxi, without a word, gave the group a cold nce and nodded slightly, Lets go.
Hearing Mu Chengxi, the Gu family no longer hesitated and quickly followed Wen Xins direction.
Ling Yichen patted Mu Chengxi on the shoulder, If she was hypnotized, then its not entirely Gu Xiangs fault.
Oh? So, youre saying its Wen Xins fault then? Mu Chengxi replied coldly. He could let it go, but he was unwilling to ept any excuses for Gu Xiang.
Thats not what I meant. Wei Shisheng is to me for brainwashing Gu Xiang. Nan Xu confirmed her symptoms were caused by hypnosis. Gu Xiang wasnt lying before she fell into aa. Of course, Wen Xin is the victim here. Wei Shisheng is the one who should be held ountable.
Mu Chengxi chuckled at Ling Yichens words, lighting a cigarette on the balcony and then offered the pack to Ling Yichen.
Youve known Wei Shisheng for so many years, yet you still dont understand her? Do you think Wei Shisheng will admit what she did? Since Gu Xiang is willing to get in touch with her, then its Gu Xiangs fault. I wont ept any objections.
Mu Chengxi was holding back his anger, unwilling to hear pleas for Gu Xiang. Even if she was hypnotized, the fact that Wen Xin was hurt remained. Consider it from another angle. If Wen Xin wasnt capable of defending herself, shed be the one being treated now. Being weak doesnt justify forgiveness.
Mu Chengxis words silenced Ling Yichen; he was right. If Wen Xin hadnt been able to fend off those men, she would have been the one injured, not Gu Xiang. Who would be here to discuss who was right and who was wrong?
I shouldnt have said what I did earlier.
As Mu Chengxi took a drag from his cigarette and nced at Ling Yichen, he turned back to the sky outside.
Im the one who feels wronged. Shes only willing to overlook this because of me, and now shes here treating Gu Xiang for my sake. I cant protect her, yet Im making herpromise. What kind of man does that make me?
Mu Chengxi wished Wen Xin would be more assertive, unreasonable even, so she wouldnt have to suppress her anger and swallow such an injustice.
Gu Yanzhe, overhearing Mu Chengxi from afar, clenched his fist, acknowledging Wen Xins grace. He agreed with Mu Chengxi; ultimately, Gu Xiang was responsible.
Wen Xin, examining the data on theputer, turned to Nan Xu, Move the patient to a regr ward.
The doctors were surprised by Wen Xins decision, expecting electroshock therapy instead. Was this a sign of giving up?
Dr. Nan a nurse looked to Nan Xu, hoping for her to challenge Wen Xins directive.
Take the patient back to the ward.
Unexpectedly, Nan Xu agreed with Wen Xins approach, causing dissent among the attending physicians. They stopped the nurse.
Gu Xiangs situation isnt optimistic. I think electroshock therapy could stimte her brainwaves and be effective!
Hearing the doctors suggestion, Wen Xin casually raised an eyebrow, Your method could work, but then Gu Xiang would be left mentally incapacitated. Can you ept that consequence?
I know youre a doctor wanting to save and even cure patients, but you must consider their future quality of life, not just pursue immediate results without thinking of the consequences.
After ncing at Nan Xu, Wen Xin grabbed her backpack and left the room.
Following Wen Xins departure, Nan Xu patted the disgruntled doctors shoulder, Today, youll witness a miracle.
Nan Xu knew if Wen Xin agreed to treat Gu Xiang, she was confident in her sess. Wen Xin rarely intervened unless sure of a positive oue, capable of reviving even those deemed beyond help.
Even if the person was dead, she would still snatch him back from the hands of the King of Hell..

The doctor watched Wen Xins casual departure with surprise. ustomed to encountering geniuses at the research institute, he had never seen anyone so arrogant.
He wondered if her skills were genuine or just a facade. If it was thetter, he feltpelled to expose her.
Following the nurse back to Gu Xiangs room, Wen Xin took a small medicine bottle from her backpack, pouring out a pill and cing it into Gu Xiangs mouth.
Instantly, the room filled with a faint aroma of traditional Chinese medicine, startling the nurse, who hadnt expected Wen Xin to be a practitioner of traditional medicine.
Can I assist with anything? the nurse asked. When the nurse smelled the fragrance of the Chinese medicine, she was certain that Wen Xin really had medical skills. The fragrance of the medicine would not lie.
Prepare some alcohol for me. I need to disinfect, Wen Xin requested.
Right away, the nurse responded, hurrying to fulfill the request.
Wen Xin then took a ck cloth pouch from her bag, unfurling it to reveal rows of golden needles, shocking those watching from outside, including Gu Xiangs parents. It was their first encounter with someone using golden needles for treatment.
The nurse, upon returning with the alcohol, was equally amazed. Growing up in a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, she had rarely seen silver needles, let alone gold ones.
Hand me the alcohol, Wen Xin said, taking a lighter from her bag. She selected the longest and shortest three golden needles, along with four regr ones, and disinfected them with the me before cing them in the alcohol.
After disinfecting, Nan Xu entered, immediately noticing the herbal scent and spotting the golden needles by the bed. Her eye twitch faintly, sensing that they were about to witness something extraordinary.
Lift her up for me. My technique is quick. If everything goes as expected, shell awaken as soon as I remove the needles.
The rooms soundproofing kept their conversation private, but those outside, seeing their rxed demeanor, felt reassured about the treatments prospects.
They felt that these two people should be very confident.
Nan Xu supported Gu Xiang as instructed. Wen Xin worked swiftly, her actions too quick for the attending nurse to follow. By the time the nurse realized what happened, ten golden needles were already positioned on Gu Xiangs head.
The nurse rubbed her eves in disbelief at the sight.
My needle removal will be quick. Make sure to step back the moment I remove thest needle to avoid being injured by her sudden awakening, Wen Xin advised.
She saw Nan Xus stunned expression and felt that it was a little funny, so she reminded her gently.
Dont worry, Ill ensure my safety. Go ahead, Nan Xu signaled with an OK gesture, confident in her own training to avoid injury.
After ensuring Nan Xus safety, Wen Xin also worried about Gu Xiang injuring herself. She stopped and headed to the door.
Opening the door, she gestured for Gu Yanzhe to follow her inside, Come in with me.
Gu Yanzhe, unsure of Wen Xins intentions, nevertheless entered the room with her, Miss Wen, what do you need me to do?
Hold her. Shell likely wake up suddenly and be agitated. Youll need to restrain her so that she doesnt hurt herself.
Guiding Gu Yanzhe on how to securely hold Gu Xiang, Wen Xin expertly removed all ten golden needles from Gu Xiangs head.
The room was filled with a fierce roar the moment thest needle was removed.
Gu Yanzhe, caught off guard by Gu Xiangs unexpected strength, hadnt held her tightly enough and received a sharp elbow to his chin, feeling as if it had shattered.
Mu Chengxi and Ling Yichen rushed in from outside, with Ling Yichen helping Gu Yanzhe secure Gu Xiang. Mu Chengxi immediately protected Wen Xin in his arms.
Wen Xin softly spoke, her gestures indicating she wanted Mu Chengxi to let her go.
As Gu Xiangs emotions stabilized and her eyes cleared, she looked at Gu Yanzhe restraining her, her voice hoarse, Brother, why are you holding me down? How did I get here?
Seeing Gu Xiang return to normal, Gu Yanzhe disregarded the pain in his chin, embracing her tightly, experiencing the profound relief of having her back. He thought he had lost her.
Gu Xiangs parents entered, visibly aged overnight by the ordeal.
Mom, Dad what happened? Why am I here? Whats wrong with my brother?
Held by Gu Yanzhe, Gu Xiang looked around in confusion, unaware of the events that had transpired.
You troublemaker, do you have any idea how close you were to bing a vegetable? Thank goodness Miss Wen saved you. And after causing such a mess, you better apologize to Miss Wen right away!
When Mrs. Gu saw that Gu Xiang had returned to normal, she did not have time to feel sorry for Gu Xiang. Her first reaction was to ask Gu Xiang to apologize to Wen Xin immediately and thank her for saving her life.
Hearing her mother, Gu Xiang was even more confused. She turned to Wen
Xin, her emotions ring up again.
Why are you here? Dont think youre superior just because you managed to fight back. I must have made a mistake, which is why I lost to you
Before she could finish, Gu Yanzhe covered her mouth, not wanting to provoke Mu Chengxi with any offensive remarks.
Miss Wen, Im sorry. My sister might not be fully aware Gu Yanzhe apologized politely.
Wen Xin gave him a brief nce, picked up the golden needles soaked in alcohol, packed her ck pouch, and without a word, left Gu Xiangs room, holding Mu Chengxis hand.
She hoped that when Gu Xiang recovered better and fully appreciated her expulsion from the hacker alliance, it would not cause another breakdown
Not long after Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi left, Gu Yanzhe caught up with them and apologized to Wen Xin, Miss Wen, Master Xi.

Hearing Gu Yanzhes voice, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi stopped and waited for him to catch up. Wen Xin looked at him with a faint gleam in her eyes.
Is something the matter?
Miss Wen, my sister shes been spoiled by us, which led to her rudeness towards you. Ill discipline her properly. Im sorry for her hiring people to harm you. I had nned to send her abroad, but with the current situation, I
Gu Yanzhe lowered his head, unable to meet the eyes of Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin, struggling to find more to say.
Your familys issues are your own to resolve; they dont concern me. Theres no need to exin so much to me. Its gettingte; we should be heading back.
Wen Xin, holding Mu Chengxis hand, left the hospital together.
Gu Yanzhe watched Wen Xins retreating figure, wondering if he had understood her intentions correctly.
Mrs. Gu told Gu Xiang everything that she had done. When Mrs. Gu said that she had spent ten million to hire someone to attack Wen Xin, she was shocked and could not believe it. Its impossible. I couldnt have done such a thing. Although I dislike her, I never thought about crippling her. How could I possibly do such a thing?
Gu Xiang couldnt believe she hadmitted such actions, only remembering dining with Wei Shisheng and then nothing else until waking uD in the hospital.
Returning from outside, Gu Yanzhe heard Gu Xiangs confession and approached her with a level gaze, Before you fell into aa, you mentioned Wei Shisheng had brainwashed you into taking certain actions.
Gu Xiang looked up sharply, as if recalling something.
Yes, it was her. She said that Wen Xin humiliated me, and I couldnt let Wen Xin get away with it. She suggested hiring someone to cripple Wen Xin so I could maintain my status in the capital, saying I couldnt allow someone better atputer skills than me to exist
After hearing her, I felt dazed, and I dont remember anything that followed!
Gu Xiang held her head, unable to recall further details, only remembering her casual mention of Wen Xins name made Wei Shisheng extremely agitated.
Looking at Gu Xiang, Gu Yanzhe was even more certain that Wei Shisheng was the one who started this matter. Wei Shisheng wanted to use Gu Xiang to get rid of Wen Xin.
Back home, Wen Xin was in no hurry to rest but instead went to herputer, essing the dark webs backend to search for deleted posts about hypnosis.
If Wei Shishengs hypnosis was that advanced, she posed a significant danger.
Mu Chengxi wrapped his arms around Wen Xin from behind, lightly blowing on her neck and nibbling her earlobe.
Wei Shisheng majored in physics, but she also studied psychology, which allowed her to easily manipte Ling Xuer into admitting to odd fetishes. A person without psychological knowledge couldnt have convinced a normal girl she was a fetishist, Mu Chengxi whispered, sharing information Ling Yichen had told him earlier.
Wen Xin paused her mouse clicks, turning to look at Mu Chengxi, surprised at the realization that Wei Shisheng was not as easy to deal with as she thought.
What exactly is her identity, and why cant I find any information on her? The subjects she studied arentmonly taught here.
Wen Xin frowned, recalling Wei Shishengs appearance at the pianopetition, realizing she wasnt as simple as she seemed. Being adopted by the Wei family might have been to conceal her identity.
Even after using Truth Listeners informationwork, Wen Xin had failed to uncover Wei Shishengs background, sensing something was amiss but had been too preupied to dwell on it.
Mu Chengxi, embracing Wen Xin, moved away from theputer desk to the sofa, enveloping her in his arms.
Wei Shisheng was brought home by my grandfather when she was three, and her original name or surname, Payten, was foreign. She attended regr schools but would disappear periodically. My grandfather only mentioned she was visiting rtives.
Ive always wondered, if she had rtives, why was she adopted by the Wei family? But my grandfather never gave an answer.
Wen Xin, after a moment of contemtion, rested her head on Mu Chengxis shoulder, Lets investigate her slowly. Be careful not to look into her eyes when facing her; I suspect her hypnosis involves visual cues.
Right, its gettingte. Do you have any ns for tomorrow? Mu Chengxi, already immune to Wei Shisheng, doubted her hypnosis would work on him. Although he did not know under what circumstances the hypnosis would work, he knew that he was not interested in Wei Shisheng at all. It would not work.
Nothing much tomorrow. Ive mostly settled things today, and the equipment I need hasnt arrived yet.
Yawningzily in Mu Chengxis arms, Wen Xin hugged his neck and nuzzled his chest.
Im a bit tired. Ill change into my pajamas, and then we can go to sleep.
Okay. Mu Chengxi kissed her gently on the lips, his gaze lingering on the phone in Wen Xins hand with a light smile, admiring how she yed coy in his presence.
Wen Xin, phone in hand, headed to the dressing room, the first thing she did was call Chu Yunxuan. Hearing the surname Payten triggered her suspicion that Wei Shisheng might be from the Independent State.
Chu Yunxuan, currently in Continent M where it was morning, was surprised to receive a call from Wen Xin at this hour.
Arent you supposed to be asleep? Are you having insomnia again?
Its not that. Theres been some trouble here in the capital, just settled. Can you help me look into something? Seventeen years ago, did the Payten family have a young girl sent to Z Nation? I suspect Wei Shisheng is from the Independent States.
Wen Xin had intended to investigate this herself, but probing into the Independent State from here would likely draw their attention, something she wasnt ready to face. Asking Chu Yunxuan was the best course of action.
Chu Yunxuan, surprised by Wei Shishengs potential background, was more curious about Wen Xins familiarity with the Independent State, noting many aspects of Wen Xins life were intricately linked to it..

Wen Xin, Ive never pried into your affairs, but could you satisfy my curiosity? Are you from the Independent State? How else could you know so much, even their exact location?
Chu Yunxuans curiosity was something Wen Xin understood. As she hesitated while fastening her pajama buttons, she admitted, There is indeed a connection, but its not convenient to discuss now. Youll find out eventually.
Alright, if you dont wish to discuss it, I wont press further. Knowing
eventually is enough for me.
After ending the call with Chu Yunxuan, Wen Xin leaned against the wardrobe in the dressing room, a bitter smile on her face. She knew that revealing her identity would bring danger.
She would prefer a peaceful life without any ties to that ce if given the choice.
In bed, Mu Chengxi sensed Wen Xins unease and wrapped his arms around her gently,
Are you feeling off today? Is there anything youd like to talk about?
Wen Xin,forted by Mu Chengxis soft voice, turned to nestle in his embrace, Its nothing serious. Just feeling that troubles have been mounting since arriving in the capital, making me somewhat irritable.
Im here for you. Let me handle Wei Shishengs matter
No, dont touch Wei Shisheng yet. I want to see what shell do next. Using her to relieve boredom isnt a bad idea!
For Wen Xin, Wei Shisheng wasnt a significant issue; Her little tricks were nothing to her.
Her irritation stemmed from not wanting any association with those people from the Independent State.
Lets sleep, Im tired.
Wen Xin bit Mu Chengxis chin lightly, then cuddled up to him, ready to sleep.
The next day, Liang Luoyu and Mu Dong arrived to find Mu Chengxi alone in the living room, without Wen Xin in sight.
Master Xi, wheres Wen Xiaoxin? Xingyue said that Grandma sent some dried fruits and wanted to send some to Wen Xin. She sent a message to Wen Xiaoxin, but she didnt reply.
Liang Luoyu unceremoniously sat opposite Mu Chengxi, drinking water from the table, having been busy all morning without a break.
Shes still asleep. She went to treat Gu Xiangtest night and sleptte. How did you handle the matter? Mu Chengxi looked up from his tablet and nced at Liang Luoyu.
Resolved. Those guys were just petty thugs with a few cases on their backs.
Weve handed them over to the police.
And Wei Shishengs involvement in this matter? How do you n to deal with it, Master Xi?
Hearing about Gu Xiangs hypnosis by Wei Shisheng while dealing with the thugs, Liang Luoyu felt Wei Shisheng needed a lesson for her restlessness.
No need. Wen Xin said we shouldnt intervene. As for the Gu family, thats their business. Let Gu Yanzhe handle it.
Mu Chengxis tone was indifferent, suggesting a the hint of indulgence in his tone towards handling Wei Shisheng, a challenge even for Gu Yanzhe against the Wei familys influence.
Youre being too hard on Gu Yanzhe. You know Mr. Weis temperament.
Seeking justice from Wei Shisheng might be harder ascending to the heavens.
Perhaps its best to let it go
Liang Luoyu expected Mu Chengxi might confront the Wei family impulsively, but knew Mr Old Master Wei would not obstruct him, given his genuine affection for Mu Chengxi.
So naive. Do we need to remind the Gu family they cant confront the Wei family directly? Use public opinion to expose Wei Shisheng. Gu Xiang, a hacker, doesnt need help uncovering dark secrets. What a waste of resources.
Mu Chengxis casual remark hinted at a n, although Wen Xin forbade direct action against Wei Shisheng. Slight retribution for Gu Xiang seemed harmless. Gu Xiang had suffered a loss, so it was not a big problem for her to get somepensation.
Enlightened by Mu Chengxis words, Liang Luoyu sighed, wondering when Mu Chengxi started engaging in such underhanded tactics.
As they spoke, the doorbell rang. Mu Chengxi nced at Mu Dong, busy in the kitchen, then nudged Liang Luoyu to answer the door.
Liang Luoyu opened the door to find Gu Yanzhe and Gu Xiang, turning to inform Mu Chengxi, Gu Yanzhe and Gu Xiang are here.
Let them in.
Mu Chengxi set aside his tablet, shiftingfortably on the sofa and straightening his clothes, mindful of Wen Xins dislike for him appearing disheveled in front of other women.
Liang Luoyu weed Gu Yanzhe and Gu Xiang inside. Gu Xiang seemed downcast.
I brought Gu Xiang to apologize to Wen Xin. Regardless of the reason, it was
Gu Xiangs fault, including her troublemaking at Tianye Tech.
Hearing Gu Yanzhes confession, Liang Luoyu felt an urge to light an incense for Gu Xiang, offending the same formidable person twice.
Shes still asleep. Lets talk another day.
Mu Chengxis gaze was unreadable, his demeanor icy, signaling his indifference to Gu Yanzhes admission and the difficulty of challenging the Wei family.
Follow me to the study. Wen Xin, appearing at the stairwell corner, holding aptop, addressed Gu Xiang with a chilly tone.
Gu Xiang, realizing Wen Xin was speaking to her, hurried over, trying to appear casual as she assessed Wen Xin, finding it hard to believe Wen Xin was younger than her.
Is it true youre not yet neen? My brother told me, Gu Xiang asked eagerly, her eyes lighting up at the prospect.
Does it matter? I have a task for you! Wen Xin nced at Gu Xiang dismissively. She wouldnt have given Gu Xiang another chance if not for the hacker alliances presidents strong rmendation.
Gu Xiang followed Wen Xin upstairs, while Liang Luoyu settled Gu Yanzhe on the couch, both observing Mu Chengxi, who seemed slightly tired.
Master Xi, is Wen Xiaoxin going to take Gu Xiang upstairs for a beating?

Liang Luoyus unreliablement drew the attention of the other two. Gu Yanzhe looked anxiously at Mu Chengxi, wanting to say something but holding back.
If youre worried, go check it out yourself. How would I know if Wen Xin is in the mood to hit someone?
Mu Chengxi nced at themzily. His phone lit up at that moment, and he walked to the balcony to answer the call. It was from Wei Manqing, requesting Wen Xin to visit the old mansion for a meal. After Mu Chengxu met Wen Xin yesterday, she couldnt stop praising her, prompting Wei Manqing and Old Madam Mu to express a desire to meet her as well.
Ill ask if shes free. Shes been quite busytely and doesnt have much time.
Ill bring her over when shes avable.
Mu Chengxi declined the invitation on Wen Xins behalf, believing there was no need for her to meet them unless she wanted to. As long as Wen Xin was happy, the choice was hers.
Gu Yanzhe felt restless with Liang Luoyus words. He doubted Wen Xin would physically confront Gu Qiang but also wasnt sure if she would seek retributionter. He knew Wen Xin was quite vengeful.
Just then, the doorbell rang again. Mu Dong came from the kitchen to answer it, surprised to find Ling Yichen and Nan Xu arriving.
Young Master Ling, Miss Nan.
Yes, theyre all here! Ling Yichen nced at the two sitting in the living room, raising an eyebrow. He thought Gu Yanzhe would take a couple of days before daring to face Wen Xin again.
Yes, Mr. Gu brought Miss Gu over to apologize. Mr. Liang came over early in the morning. Mu Dong offered disposable slippers to Ling Yichen and Nan Xu.
Why dont I see Gu Qiang? Ling Yichen was surprised that Gu Qiang would lower herself to apologize, knowing her notorious pride, especially after gaining some fame in the hackermunity. She became arrogant and did not listen to anyone.
Miss Gu and Miss Wen went upstairs to the study. Miss Wen has something to discuss with Miss Gu.
Ill go up and see. Nan Xu came specifically to see Wen Xin. Hearing Wen Xin was upstairs, she had no interest in greeting the men in the living room and headed straight up.
Approaching the study, Nan Xu heard the rapid and intense tapping of keyboard keys. Pushing the door gently, she saw Wen Xin, pale and seemingly ufortable, lounging on the sofa.
Noticing the study door opening, Wen Xin, despite her difort, sat up and patted the sofa beside her, inviting Nan Xu to sit.
You look pale. Did you not sleep wellst night? Nan Xu asked, concerned about Wen Xins wellbeing butcking the medical expertise to diagnose further. She did not have Wen Xins Chinese medicine skills and did not know how to feel his pulse. She could only ask questions to understand Wen Xins condition.
Its that time of the month. It always hurts, and I dislike taking painkillers. Itll be better by tomorrow. What brings you here?
Wen Xin nced at the documents Nan Xu was holding, guessing she was here about Wei Shishengs hypnosis technique.
Take a look at this document. I think her hypnosis technique is of this kind, but tost so long is rare. Ive only seen one person use such a technique.
Nan Xus expression tensed. If that person taught Wei Shisheng, then her hypnosis skills were more formidable than expected.
Dont worry. That person has been missing for over three years. Given her age, she wouldnt have the energy to cause trouble, especially after the hit I gave her. Its uncertain if she survived.
Actually, what Wei Shisheng used could only be considered a hypnosis spell. Its still far from being a puppet spell. If it really was a puppet spell, she wouldnt be able to wake up again. It seems like her ability is still very ordinary.
Wen Xin wasnt overly concerned about Wei Shisheng, opting to keep a close watch rather than taking drastic actions. She did not allow Mu Chengxi to send Wei Shisheng away so that she could keep an eye on Wei Shisheng. If there were any unusual movements, she would be the first to know.
Wei Shisheng had secrets worth uncovering, and letting her go could pose a risk.
Leaning on Nan Xu, Wen Xin sighed, Im considering developing a medicine for menstrual cramps. Its such a difort.
Nan Xu smiled softly at Wen Xinsment on her medical prowess yet suffering from menstrual cramps without developing a remedy. , Ive always been curious. Youre so skilled in medicine and you have menstrual cramps. Why didnt youe up with a prescription yourself
Ive been toozy to spend time on such a minor issue. Its just one day of pain each month
Standing, Wen Xin approached Gu Qiang, who was struggling with the programming code. Wen Xins initially enthusiastic demeanor turned serious.
With your level, you managed to rank third at the ck Hat Conference? Who taught you your hacking skills?
Wen Xins dissatisfaction was evident. She questioned Gu Qiangs qualifications and the ck Hacker Alliance Chairmans judgment on her potential. I taught myself and met the Chairman of the Hacker Alliance by chance, who then taught me. Im now a graduate student in theputer science department of Beijing University.
Gu Qiang found Wen Xins program too challenging, unfamiliar with robotic programming codes.
Gu Xiang watched as Wen Xin tapped her finger a few times and the code sessfully jumped. Surprised by Wen Xins quick code adjustments, Gu Qiang admired her skill, pondering if Wen Xin was more adept than their university professors or even the Hacker Alliance Chairman.
Your novice skills require serious improvement. Ill send you to the Hacker Alliance to learn proper coding. If you show progress in a month, Ill involve you in an interesting research project. Otherwise, youre on your own.
Hearing about a chance to return to the Hacker Alliance, Gu Qiangs excitement turned to disappointment, revealing she was expelled after regaining consciousness.
I got a message from the Hacker Alliance Ive been expelled.
Gu Xiang lowered her head and sped her fingers. Bing a hacker was her proudest thing, but now it was ruined..

Chapter 348 - 348: Wen Xin Proposes to Have Dinner at the Old Residence

From childhood, all eyes in Gu Yanzhes family were on him. Gu Yanzhe had been by Mu Chengxis side and brought many benefits to the family. Everyone felt that he was the most outstanding. Even her parents only had Gu Yanzhe in their eyes.
It was only after Gu Qiangs sess in the Hacker Alliance and her aplishments at the ck Hat Conference that her family began to value her. Now, she faced expulsion from the Hacker Alliance.
Its okay, Ill send you in. Just go directly to the headquarters and find that old man, the Chairman. Hell arrange everything for you.
Wen Xin said this and quickly dialed a number on her phone. The call was swiftly answered, as if the other end had been eagerly awaiting her news.
Her coding skills are too poor. Im sending her over for a month; teach her well. If she improves after a month, Ill keep her; if not, you can train her yourself, but dont bother me again!
Sure, no problem. When will you visit the Alliance, Master? Recently, some forces have been trying to attack me, and Im barely holding on!
A robust elderly voice came from the phone, surprising Gu Qiang, who found the tone familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
Handle it yourself. If you cant manage this small issue, the Hacker Alliance might as well disband! Wen Xin leanedzily against the bookcase, looking down at Gu Qiang.
Ill leave the training details to you and Gu Qiang. You have one month. After that, Ill be too busy to help.
Without waiting for a response, Wen Xin hung up the phone and raised an eyebrow at Gu Qiang, The Chairman of the Hacker Alliance will contact you soon. Whether you go to the Hacker Alliance is up to you. Youre free to leave now.
Gu Qiang was stunned by Wen Xins words, Even though I wronged you unknowingly, I still dislike and resent you deep down. Why dont you me me? Instead, youre helping me?
me you? Help you? Wen Xinughed at Gu Qiangs words.
To be honest, I do hate trouble. I was angry because you were bothering me, but then I realized you were just being used. Just remember to stay away from Wei Shisheng. Shes cunning, and youre no match for her. As for the rest, it doesnt really affect me, so lets consider the matter resolved.
Gu Qiang, seeing Wen Xins easygoing demeanor, suddenly found the younger girl rather likable, wondering why she had ever found her annoying.
I still need to apologize and thank you
Theres no need for formalities. I dont like them. Your brother is waiting downstairs. I guess he might be worried Im bullying you. You should go down before hees rushing up.
He wouldnt dare, not with Mu Chengxi here. But speaking of which, how did you end up with Mu Chengxi? Even though hes the head of the Mu family, hes known as an ignorant and ipetent yboy. Many in the capital are waiting for him to ruin the Mu family
Really? Let them wait then. I doubt theyll see it happen. Wen Xin chuckled at Gu Qiangs brazenness. Mu Chengxis power was unfathomable, and the Mu family meant little in his eyes.
Knock, knock..
Mu Chengxi knocked and entered the room, immediately noticing Wen Xins paleplexion. He quickly went to her side and enveloped her in his arms, concerned, Why do you look so pale?
Um Its that time of the month Overwhelmed by Mu Chengxis embrace, Wen Xin pushed gently against his arm.
Nan Xu and Gu Qiang, witnessing their interaction, subtly motioned towards the door, indicating it was time to leave. Gu Qiang caught the hint, quietly exiting with Nan Xu and chuckling silently at the sight of bite marks on Mu Chengxis neck.
Wen Xin watched them leave with a smirk, then gave up resisting and leaned into Mu Chengxi, wrapping her arms around his neck.
Im hungry. Is there anything to eat? After eating, I want to sleep some more.
Mu Chengxi, seeing Wen Xins fragile state during her period, was filled with tenderness, Lunch is ready. Lets eat downstairs, and then you can continue resting. He lowered his head and gently nted a kiss on the corner of Wen Xins lips.
Mu Chengxi wanted to pick Wen Xin up, but Wen Xin gently patted his arm. You dont have to hug me. I can do it myself. When Wen Xin thought of the crowd downstairs, she felt a little embarrassed. She did not want to be the subject of their idle chatter.
When Wen Xin went downstairs, the house was empty except for avish lunch prepared on the dining table.
Isnt anyone staying for lunch? Why is there so much food prepared?
They nned to eat and then go to the horse track this afternoon. Since youre not feeling well, we wont join them. Theyve gone to the resort for lunch instead.
Mu Chengxi led Wen Xin to the dining room, where all her favorite dishes were still warm, likely freshly delivered.
You start eating. Ill go close the balcony windows. Mu Chengxi looked at the raindrops falling outside the window. He felt that it was a little cold. Concerned for Wen Xins warmth, Mu Chengxi headed to the balcony as she began her meal.
Wen Xin did not stand on ceremony. She picked up the bowl and chopsticks at the side and scooped a bowl of rice for herself and Mu Chengxi. He pulled out a chair and sat down to eat.
After eating, Wen Xin felt better, herplexion improved. Resting her chin in one hand, she casually chewed the beef in her mouth, eyeing Mu Chengxi. I heard Aunt Fus cooking is delicious. I wonder if I can try it tonight?
Mu Chengxi, peeling shrimp for Wen Xin, looked up, puzzled by her hint.
Did you mention that Aunt Fu cooks well and youd like to try her food tonight?
Sure. Ill call Grandmater and have Mu Dong pick up Aunt Fu. What would you like to eat?
Mu Chengxis first reaction was that Wen Xin was not feeling well, and it was cold outside. It would be more convenient for Mu Dong to bring Auntie Fu over..

Wen Xin had not expected the usually clever Mu Chengxi to have his moments of foolishness. She put down her chopsticks, straightened her posture, and looked at Mu Chengxi.
I mean, Ill go to the old house for dinner tonight and check on Grandmas health while Im there.
Mu Chengxi paused in his shrimp peeling, looking at Wen Xin. He had thought it would take a few more days for Wen Xin to agree to visit the old house, but to his surprise, she agreed to go today.
Then Ill call Grandma. This morning, my mom called me, asking when I would bring you home, Mu Chengxi said, dialing his Old Madam Mus number to inform her about bringing Wen Xin for dinner.
The joy in the olddy Mus voice came through the phone. She was finally going to see the granddaughter-inw she had been longing for.
Wen Xin picked up her chopsticks again, took a shrimp that Mu Chengxi had peeled for her, dipped it in sauce, and found the taste quite delightful.
After lunch, Wen Xiny in bed while Mu Chengxi went out to buy some feminine products and a heating pad, returning without the previous panic. Knowing Wen Xins preferred brand, he knew exactly what to buy.
Mu Chengxi took out the heating pad, ced it on the outside of Wen Xins underwear, and she squinted at his movements, finding them perhaps too practiced.
He gently covered Wen Xin with the nket. After tucking Wen Xin in bed quietly, Mu Chengxi looked up to find her staring nkly at him. He raised an eyebrow in question.
Whats wrong? Did I do something incorrect?
No, its just that youre toofortable around me, as if the idea of undressing is no big deal to you anymore, Wen Xin said bluntly, her frankness catching Mu Chengxi off guard and causing him to stagger.
My little ancestor, could you consider the situation before speaking? When I decide to undress you, you wont be able to escape!
Following that, Mu Chengxi crawled up to Wen Xin, kissed her lightly on her pink lips, gently stroked her head, and said, Sleep well, and well go to the old house for dinner after you wake up.
Unable to resist Mu Chengxis tender gaze, every time Wen Xin saw him look at her so affectionately, she wanted to do something excessive. She pulled the nket over her, closed her eyes,y in bed pretending to be dead, and said nothing more.
Due to the weather, Liang Luoyu and his group didnt go to the horse track but decided to y mahjong at a club instead. When they arrived, they ran into Wei Shisheng and Ou Shenzhi leaving the club.
When Gu Xiang saw Shisheng, her hand involuntarily clenched, but she refrained from any further action.
The people around were surprised by Gu Xiangs calm demeanor, expecting her, given her personality, to confront Shisheng.
Are you here for a meal as well? Shenzhi asked Yichen, approaching him with a polite demeanor.
Yes, we were nning to go to the horse track after lunch, but it started raining, so we came here to y mahjong. Would you like to join us for a bit?
Ling Yichen, looking at Ou Shenzhi and then at Wei Shisheng hiding behind him and silent, smirked mockingly.
No, thank you. Were just checking out the ce. Its my grandfathers birthday in three days, and you muste to celebrate.
Ou Shenzhi, noticing Ling Yichens gaze, held Wei Shishengs hand and addressed everyone with a gentle and humble voice.
Of course, we wouldnt miss Old Mr. Out s birthday. The gifts are already prepared. Since you wont join us, well head inside.
Ling Yichen then walked upstairs with Nan Xiu, followed by their group, without giving Ou Shenzhi and Wei Shisheng another nce.
Feeling ignored, Wei Shisheng tightened her grip on Ou Shenzhis hand, her gaze fixed on the departing group.
Just then, Gu Xiang turned back to look at Wei Shisheng, gave her the middle finger in a brazen manner, and walked up the stairs.
Ou Shenzhi, not noticing Gu Xiangs gesture, held Wei Shishengs trembling hand, preparing to leave, while Wei Shisheng murmured, Why, wasnt she supposed to be in aa? How is she up and about again?
Ou Shenzhi, unaware of the details, felt Wei Shisheng was concerned about Gu Xiang and shared what he knew without hesitation.
I heard that Wen Xin saved Gu Xiang. This morning, my grandfather praised Wen Xins medical skills, having benefited from her medicine at the sanatorium, and remarked that Zhuge Jingmings pills couldntpare to Wen Xins
I get it!
Wei Shisheng didnt want to hear any more praise for Wen Xin, feeling chaotic inside, as Wen Xin had once again thwarted her ns.
Not only had she failed to harm Wen Xin, but she had also exposed her own schemes. Gu Xiang was proving useless.
She suspected they knew about her hypnotism, yet wondered why no one had confronted her, unable to believe Gu Xiang would just let it go.
When the group entered the reserved private room, Liang Luoyu was surprised at Gu Xiangs calm, having expected her to confront Wei Shisheng, but she remainedposed and moved on.
Youre different today. Normally, you wouldve confronted her directly Everyone present knew who Liang Luoyu was referring to.
Wen Xin told me Wei Shisheng is cunning, and Im no match for her. I n to deal with her when Im stronger, but Ive already started to cause her some trouble, Gu Xiang dered proudly, unwilling to let Wei Shisheng get away with her actions.
Hearing Gu Xiang, everyone pondered how Wen Xin, a young girl, managed to influence this proud princess.
When Wen Xin woke up, it was dim outside. She turned to see Mu Chengxi propping his head with one arm,zily lying on the bed watching her.
Have you been watching me this whole time? Wen Xin stretchedzily, pinched Mu Chengxis cheek, and couldnt help but admire the touch.
I just woke up too. Its gettingte. Do you want to get up? Your phone vibrated a few times earlier, Mu Chengxi said softly, pulling Wen Xin into his embrace..

Just as Mu Chengxi was about to kiss Wen Xin, she suddenly jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom.
Mu Chengxi watched this with some confusion but quickly understood the reason Wen Xin rushed to the bathroom. He sat up from the bed, and then got off to tidy up, recing the bedspread with a clean one.
After tidying up the bed, he picked up the bedspread that had been thrown on the floor and walked to the bathroom outside the room to stuff it into the washing machine.
By the time Wen Xin came out, she had changed her clothes. Seeing the newly changed light gray bedspread, she fell into thought. This favored son of heaven was really willing to do anything for her.
While Wen Xin was lost in thought, staring at the bedspread, Mu Chengxi wrapped his arms around her from behind and nuzzled her neck, speaking softly, Its about time to leave. Itll take roughly forty minutes by car. Should we head out now?
Mm, I need to grab a few things, then we can go, Wen Xin said, pulling away from Mu Chengxis embrace. She walked out of the room to the entrance, took a cardboard box from the cab filled with small medicine bottles, and selected a few to put in her backpack.
We can go now.
Leaning casually against the wall, Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xins actions, raising an eyebrow, When did all these little medicine bottles appear in my house? When did you bring them over?
Oh, they were in my backpack. It was getting too heavy, so I just left them here.
Wen Xin bent down to put on her shoes and took out Mu Chengxis shoes from the shoe cab, taking a wet wipe from a box nearby to clean her hands.
What are you doing standing there? Lets go! Wen Xin tilted her head, curiously looking at Mu Chengxi, wondering why he was still standing in ce.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Mu Chengxi walked over to Wen Xin, bent down, and kissed her on her red lips.
Wen Xin wasnt too surprised by Mu Chengxis gesture; she had zotten used to his frequent kisses.
Hurry up, or well bete, Wen Xin gently pushed Mu Chengxi, urging him with the words he used to hurry her.
The two stood hand in hand waiting for the elevator, which soon arrived, revealing a woman inside. Wen Xin remembered her as the woman who had posed provocatively outside their home that day.
The woman was surprised to see Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin holding hands as they entered the elevator, even double-checking the floor number to make sure she hadnt made a mistake.
Sorry to interrupt, but do you live on this floor, or are you guests? Wen Xin looked up at the woman, responding lightly, This is our home
Then howe that day, it was definitely a man The woman muttered, frowning as if trying to prove something yet unsure if she remembered correctly.
Wen Xin had no interest in engaging with the woman but could confirm that the woman had no interest in Mu Chengxi, as she hadnt given him another nce since he entered the elevator, which was quite interesting.
If it were another woman, her eyes might have been glued to Mu Chengxi.
About forty minutester, Mu Chengxis car stopped outside the Mu familys old mansion. The butler, waiting at the gate, hurried over with an umbre to offer shelter from the rain.
As the butler opened the car door, he saw Mu Chengxi gently unbuckling Wen Xins seatbelt, leaning close to her, whispering something.
Sorry Young Master, I came to bring an umbre, the butler quickly apologized, then closed the car door.
Mu Chengxi sat upright, opened the car door, and took the umbre from the butler, softly thanking him, Thank you. There are gifts in the trunk; please help me with them.
Of course, Seventh Young Master.
Mu Chengxi stepped out of the car, walked to the passenger side, and held the umbre over Wen Xin, extending his hand to her.
Wen Xin took Mu Chengxis hand, using his support to get out of the car. He immediately wrapped his arms around her, hugging her waist, and quickly walked into the old mansions corridor.
The Mu familys old mansion was arge courtyard with a sense of history, featuring several covered walkways that provided shelter from the rain and led to various smaller courtyards.
Mu Chengxi handed the umbre to a servant and took a towel from them to wipe the water from his trousers.
The butler, following with the gifts Mu Chengxi had brought, watched his actions, reassured that the man was indeed their Young Master Seven. He could also be sure he hadnt been mistaken earlier.
Who would have thought that their Young Master Seven, usually indifferent to women, would make such a gesture for Miss Wen, directly carrying her into the covered walkway, unwilling to let a drop of rain touch her.
Young Master Seven, Old Madam, Sir, Madam, and Eldest Miss are all waiting in Old Madams courtyard. Please follow me, the butler, regaining hisposure, made a respectful gesture inviting them to follow.
Mu Chengxi handed the towel to a servant and, holding Wen Xins hand, led her through the covered walkway into the old madams courtyard.
Entering the Mu familys old mansion for the second time, Wen Xin was still deeply moved. Her first visit was during winter, with the courtyard brightly lit and filled with the Mu family and their associates.
Today, the Mu residence was very quiet. In the cold autumn rain, the Mu residence had a different feeling
Mu Chengxis gaze remained on Wen Xin, watching the changes in her eyes and affectionately smiling, What do you think? Do you like the scenery of the old mansion? You have two weeks until the independent enrollment; do you want to stay here for a few days? Its quieter here.
At the mention of quieter, Wen Xin looked up at Mu Chengxi, raising an eyebrow, Are you sure? Itll really be quieter?
Seeing the disbelief in Wen Xins bright eyes, Mu Chengxi hesitated. He realized that if Wen Xin stayed here, his grandmother and Mu Chengxu would definitelye to visit her, and then it wouldnt be very quiet.
Forget it. Lan Zhi is quieter, Mu Chengxi gently squeezed Wen Xins hand, his eyes tender and full of affectionate attachment.
The butler, following behind, dared not look directly at the scene, ustomed to Mu Chengxis cold demeanor and unable to adapt to this new side of him..

The butler messaged us ten minutes ago saying he saw your car. Weve been waiting for ten minutes without seeing you, only to find you two here being affectionate.
A gentle voice came from not far away, and when Wen Xin looked up, she saw Mu Chengxu leaning against a red pir, watching them with a faint smile on her face.
Wen Xin gently pushed Mu Chengxi away from her and turned to Mu Chengxu with a light smile, her voice soft, Sister.
Yes, yes, yes. Come quickly. Grandma and our parents have been waiting for you. Come on, Ill take you to them.
Mu Chengxu was delighted to hear Wen Xin call her sister and quickly walked up to Wen Xin, taking her hand to lead her away. However, this time, Mu Chengxi did not let Mu Chengxu pull Wen Xin away.
Sis, I brought my girlfriend home. Isnt it a bit inappropriate for you to snatch my girlfriend away like this?
Mu Chengxi looked at Mu Chengxu teasingly, and realizing she might have been too impulsive, Mu Chengxu awkwardly smiled at Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi.
Sorry, I just really like Wen Xin. Then, lets all go in together! Mu Chengxu released Wen Xins hand, rubbing own hands awkwardly, and followed them into the old madams courtyard.
Mu Chengxi led Wen Xin into the living room, where they saw three people sitting, which made the atmosphere somewhat solemn.
The three people in the living room were struck by Wen Xins beauty upon seeing her enter hand in hand with Mu Chengxi, understanding why he was so taken with her. Their first reaction was that this youngdy was too beautiful.
The moment Old Madam Mu saw Wen Xin, she was instantly charmed, finding Wen Xin even more beautiful than she remembered when she was sick, vibrant, and stunning.
Seeing Mu Chengxi holding Wen Xins hand tightly made the old madam even happier, knowing her cold-natured grandson had never been so devoted to anyone before. She looked forward to meeting her great-grandchild soon, which delighted her.
The old madam exuded an exceptional presence, carrying the dignity of a prominent family matriarch, yet she remained approachable.
Her every move on the sofa was graceful and dignified, emitting the aura of arge family and making Wen Xin feel the weight of their heritage.
This girl is so beautiful; no wonder my grandson is so smitten, wanting to stick by your side. Come,e, sit next to grandma; let me have a good look at you.
Recalling the old madams generosity in sending gifts to Ice City, Wen Xin found it hard to refuse and tried to pull away from Mu Chengxi to approach the old madam.
However, Mu Chengxi, seemingly ignoring the old madams words, held onto Wen Xins hand tightly without letting go.
Unable to pull away, Wen Xin turned to look at Mu Chengxi, puzzled by his intentions.
The old madam red at Mu Chengxi for his reluctance to let go.
Mu Chengxi, pretending not to notice, sat down on a nearby sofa with Wen Xin, casually wrapping his arm around her waist in a rxed andid-back manner.
Everyone in the living room was confused about Mu Chengxis intentions, their gazes fixed on him, waiting for him to exin.
Mu Jinyan felt a bad premonition, worried that Mu Chengxi might settle scores in such a setting, addressing the issue of Wen Xin being driven away in the past.
Expecting my girlfriend to call you Grandma without even a greeting Zift? Mu Chengxis eyes flickered with calction. He had not intended to let Wen Xin meet them casually; he sought a legitimate status for her.
Hearing Mu Chengxis words, everyone sighed in relief, except for Wen Xin, who turned to Mu Chengxi in confusion, A greeting gift?
Wen Xin struggled to understand Mu Chengxis actions and intentions.
Mu Chengxi, with a smile in his eyes, whispered to Wen Xin, Since youvee to meet my parents with me, I must seize this opportunity to secure a title for you.
Title? Wen Xins beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her expression neutral as she looked at Mu Chengxi.
No wonder Mu Chengxi waited for her to initiateing here; he had such ns all along, not only to gain the Mu familys recognition of her status but also to willingly tie her to him.
Mu Chengxi always nned carefully in his work, and he was so skilled that even she was within his calctions.
Mu Chengxi, sensing Wen Xins displeasure, smiled appeasingly, his voice low enough for only the two of them, You can do as you please when we get back.
Wen Xin red at Mu Chengxi, saying nothing, but seeing her not visibly upset, Mu Chengxi spoke up confidently, looking at the three people opposite him.
Grandma, Dad, Mom, as elders meeting my girlfriend for the first time, you wouldnt have forgotten to prepare a meeting gift, right?
Theres no need for you to remind us. Other families have their traditions, and so do the Mu family. Whatever otherdies receive, Wen Xin will surely have too!
Old Madam Mu feigned anger at Mu Chengxi. She found her grandson more and more unpleasant to the eye. However, when her gaze fell on Wen Xin, the wrinkles on her face broke into a smile.
Butler, bring the meeting gift I prepared for Miss Wen, the old madam ordered the butler, who hurried towards the family treasury and returned with arge sandalwood box, handling it with great care, indicating its value.
Little girl Xin,e here and see if you like this, the old madam beckoned Wen Xin.
Mu Chengxi didnt stop Wen Xin this time but gently nudged her from behind, Go see what Grandma has prepared for you.
Wen Xin ncedzily at Mu Chengxi; her purpose for visiting wasnt the gifts but rather to enjoy a meal and check on the old madams health.
Xin girl,e and see if you like it! the old madam urged, beckoning Wen Xin to approach.
Wen Xin, go have a look. What has Grandma prepared for you? Im curious too! Mu Chengxu was eager too, and seeing Wen Xin remain seated, stretched out to pull Wen Xin up by the wrist, then led her to sit next to the old madam..

Wen Xin,e and have a look. Dont be shy; we will all be family soon.
Wei Manqing, who had been sitting silently, also urged Wen Xin, her voice gentle and friendly, as if she had already epted Wen Xin as part of their family.
Hearing Wei Manqings words, Mu Chengxi lifted his gaze towards her. Her attitude surprised Mu Chengxi, as it was quite different from when they had previously encountered Wen Xin.
Wen Xin sat down beside Old Madam Mu, who ced a key in the palm of Wen Xins hand with a solemn voice.
Grandma has thought long and hard, feeling that no gift could be worthy of your lifesaving grace. However, when I saw this item, I immediately felt it suited you. Even if you dont like it, you must ept it, the old madam said while looking at Wen Xin with eyes full of affection.
The more she looked at Wen Xin, the more she liked her.
Wen Xins delicate, jade-like fingers held the key, and under everyones watchful eyes, she opened the gift prepared by the old madam. Upon seeing the contents, she involuntarily held her breath,pletely surprised by the preciousness of the gift.
Mu Chengxu, curious about the gift, peered over, and her jaw dropped in astonishment at the sight. Was this gift not excessively generous?
Seeing the expressions on Wen Xin and Mu Chengxus faces, Wei Manqing and Mu Jinyan also stood up and walked behind the old madam to catch a glimpse of the mysterious and surprising present.
This gift, matching Wen Xins status, is just right. Grandma might be a bit impatient, but she hopes you will continue to be with Chengxi, to marry him sooner. This is the gift from Grandma, and also the Mu familys bridal gift to you, the old madam said, her eyes looking kindly at Wen Xin and patting Wen Xins hand gently with her own slightly aged but tender hands.
Wen Xin was frozen to the spot, trying to find a way to refuse the gift, but when the old madam uttered the words bridal gift, she found herself unable to speak the words of refusal.
To refuse the bridal gift would mean to refuse Mu Chengxi, and since she nned to stay with him, she could not reject this phoenix crown.
The words bridal gift also made the usually indifferent andnguid Mu Chengxi sitting on the couch tense up. His deep, dark eyes were fixed on Wen Xin, seemingly worried she would utter a refusal.
I ept this gift, and I ask for Grandmas care in the future, Wen Xins voice lost its previous coldness, now sounding soft and sweet, like a spring stream gently flowing into everyones heart.
Wen Xin looked up, her gaze meeting Mu Chengxis excited eyes. Her bright eyes were resolute as she looked at Mu Chengxi. This was the most important decision of her life.
She was willing to give her heart, to be faithful from beginning to end. Mu Chengxi was her love, and she was willing to spend a lifetime by his side.
Turning her gaze back, Wen Xin re-examined the phoenix crown inside the box. The crown, forged from pure gold, was adorned with various precious gemstones.
The pair of phoenixes on the crown seemed toe to life, as if about to take flight, with fine diamonds on the tails that dazzled the eyes.
At the center of the crown sat a massive red diamond, surrounded by pink and yellow diamonds the size of pigeon eggs, exuding nobility and luxury.
The pink and yellow diamonds on the crown, any one of which could shock the world, numbered twelve in total, an extravagant sight to behold.
Grandma, arent you showing too much favoritism? Giving your granddaughter-inw such a precious bridal gift, I wonder if I will receive such a valuable dowry when I marry!
Mu Chengxu looked at the sandalwood box containing the phoenix crown, herment half-joking, overwhelmed by the shock of the gift.
You better hurry up and find a boyfriend then, and after you have a boyfriend, we can talk about the pretend dowry!
Old Madam Mu looked at Mu Chengxu, her voice filled with affection. Her most cherished granddaughters dowry, how could it be anything less?
Xiaoxin, this is one of the greeting gifts from Grandma, and I have another gift for you.
As she spoke, the old madam took out a red velvet pouch from beside her and ced it in Wen Xins hand, This was given to me by Chengxis great-grandmother when I married into the Mu family. She told me this must be passed to the wife of the Mu familys head. Now that youve epted the bridal gift, you must take this bracelet as well. No refusals allowed!
The old madam ced the red velvet pouch in Wen Xins palm, pressing down with both hands, giving her no chance to refuse.
Take it, were all family, after all! Wei Manqing gently patted Wen Xins shoulder from behind, speaking in a soft and tender voice.
Before Wen Xins arrival, she had been concerned that she might not take to the rebellious air about Wen Xin, but now it seemed that such a distinctive and endearing girl wasnt bad at all.
What was most important was that Wen Xin had managed to tame their familys wild young master, which was quite an aplishment in her eyes, and she liked that.
Grandmas gift is too valuable; it makes mine seem insubstantial. Thats really too much, Mu Chengxu said half-jokingly as she took out an exquisite box from her handbag, which clearly was expensive, and handed it to Wen Xin.
The meeting gift from your sister is probably the least valuable; dont look down on it!
Wen Xin did not refuse the bracelet from the old madam, cing it on herp, and then opened the box Mu Chengxu had given her. She immediately recognized it as thetest ne from the Huoluo brand, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.
Thank you, sister, I really like it. Wen Xin graciously epted Mu Chengxus gift.
Just as Wen Xin was about to close the ne box, Mu Chengxu noticed that there was no jewelry on Wen Xins neck and stopped her.
I dont know what variety this flower is, but the first time I saw it, I thought of you. Let me put it on for you.
With that, Mu Chengxu took the ne out of the box, and Wen Xin, without any pretense, lifted her hair, allowing Mu Chengxu to help her put on the ne.
Wen Xins skin was very fair, and the design of the ne stood out even more against her paleplexion. Mu Chengxu squinted her eyes in satisfaction as she looked at Wen Xin, proud of her choice.
While Mu Chengxu was busy putting the ne on Wen Xin, Mu Jinyan and Wei Manqing took the opportunity to sit back on the sofa, taking out the gifts they had prepared..

Wen Xin, this is the gift Ive prepared for you; I hope youll like it.
Wei Manqing presented an exquisitely crafted box from which she extracted a jade bracelet of a lush green hue, evidently of great worth and certainly no ordinary piece.
This jade has been part of my collection for a long time. The moment I first saw you, I felt this bracelet suited you. We didnt get the chance to get acquaintedst time, but now were family. Let me put this bracelet on for you.
Wei Manqing didnt give Wen Xin the opportunity to decline. She took Wen Xins wristthe one without a watchand gently massaged it before firmly slipping the bracelet onto Wen Xins wrist, admiring it as one would a piece of art.
Wen Xin, momentarily at a loss for words in front of Mu Chengxis warm family, could only offer Wei Manqing a gentle smile in return. Thank you for your gift, Auntie
Its good that you like it. Your uncle has also prepared a gift for you. Hearing you were going to attend Beijing University, he bought you a house in the best
as living in your own home. Jinyan, hand over the keys and the property deed
to Wen Xin.
Wei Manqing warmly urged Mu Jinyan to quickly give the prepared gift to Wen Xin. Mu Jinyan, looking at Wen Xin, took out the property deed and keys, handing them over to her.
Wen Xin, I was foolishst time
Lets not bring up past matters. Wen Xin is not the type to hold grudges. Let me see, what kind of house did you buy for us?
Mu Chengxi stood up and took the property deed and keys from Mu Jinyans hand, preventing any further apologies. He knew Wen Xin didnt want to revisit the past and didnt want Mu Jinyan to feel awkward. He felt this was the best way to give them both an out.
After inspecting the property, Mu Chengxizily stretched and ced the deed on the coffee table in front of Wen Xin.
Im going out for a smoke. You all chat. Seeing Wen Xin and the old madam conversingfortably, Mu Chengxi, with his phone in hand, left the living room.
Following Mu Chengxis departure, Mu Jinyan also stood up and walked out after him. Approaching Mu Chengxi in the corridor, who was lighting up a cigarette, he said, You havent been home in half a year because of that day I failed to protect Wen Xin, wasnt it? Mu Jinyan knew Mu Chengxi harbored a grudge about that incident, and he hadnt expected his attempt at an exnation to be stopped by Mu Chengxi.
Predicting Mu Jinyan would follow him out, Mu Chengxi opened his cigarette pack, offering one to Mu Jinyan with a light smile. I was indeed angry about that incident, but youre my father. A son has to consider his fathers feelings. Most importantly, it seems Wen Xin doesnt want to bring up the past, so theres really no need for apologies. Were family now, and youll have many chances to protect her. Why dwell on those things?
Mu Chengxis rtionship with Mu Jinyan had never been very close, especially after Mu Jinyan left him alone at the Mu familys house in pursuit of freedom, leading to a distance between them since.
However, all that was in the past. Mu Chengxi didnt want to hold on to those grudges. He just wanted to give Wen Xin a home where everyone cared for her and was willing to protect her. That was enough for him.
As Mu Chengxi and Mu Jinyan left the living room, Wen Xin took out many small medicine bottles from her backpack. The butler, seeing this, quickly came over with a storage box to take them from her.
Miss Wen, these are
These are pills Ive concocted. One a day is sufficient, and they are very beneficial for Grandmas health, more so than the pills provided by Zhuge Jingming. She doesnt need to take those anymore.
The pills were specifically formted by Wen Xin based on the health report Zhuge Jingming had provided for the old madam and were very useful for her condition.
Old Madam Mu reached out her wrist to Wen Xin, Xiaoxin, check on Grandmas health. I dont ask for much, only to see you and Chengxis child be born. That will put my mind at ease.
The thought of seeing Wen Xin and Mu Chengxis child brought a smile to the old madams eyes. She imagined their children would be the most beautiful little treasures.
Wen Xins hand trembled involuntarily as she felt the old madams pulse. At neen, wasnt the idea of having children a bit premature?
After more than ten minutes, Wen Xin tidied the old madams sleeves and smiled tenderly at her. Grandma, rest assured, you are in excellent health. As long as you keep a positive mindset, your wishes will surelye true!
As Wen Xin mentioned the old madams wishesing true, her ears turned unconsciously red. Mu Chengxi, entering from outside and witnessing this scene, didnt need to guess that the old madam must have been discussing children with Wen Xin. It seemed that Grandma was truly in a hurry.
Grandma, Aunt Fu has prepared the meal. Should we go eat now?
Yes, yes, lets eat. We mustnt let little Wen Xin get hungry. Lets go have our meal! The old madam felt her dream of a great-grandchild was one step closer, and her spirits seemed to lift considerably. She got up briskly, holding Wen Xins hand, ready to walk out.
Grandma, let me help you to the dining room. Let Wen Xin and Little Seven put away these valuable items first before we head to the dining room. Mu Chengxu nced at the table with the valuable items. She wouldnt dare touch them; if anything were to break, her entirepany couldnt afford the loss.
Right, right, Little Yao, you put away the items. Be careful not to damage them.
Understood, Grandma. Ill take them to my courtyard first and thene back for the meal.
Saying this, Mu Chengxi carefully stored the phoenix crown, cradling it in his arms, and took Wen Xins hand, leading her out of the old madams courtyard.
Once they reached Mu Chengxis courtyard, Wen Xins expression darkened, and she squinted at the smiling Mu Chengxi.
Youre cunning, setting a trap for me to fall into. Arent you afraid Id outright refuse?
Mu Chengxi ced the box on the table and approached Wen Xin, looking at her earnestly, Of course, Im afraid, but I swear I didnt expect grandma to bring out the bridal gift. I just wanted to bring you back to give you a status.
Mu Chengxis gaze was sincere as he looked at Wen Xin. He understood her temperament well; he wouldnt dare to do anything that might upset her. Even if he was anxious, he wouldnt force Wen Xin to do anything against her will.
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow and couldnt maintain herposed smile any longer. She chuckled lightly, Alright, its true that no one can force me to do what I dont want to do. Even if they offered me all of Beijing as a bridal gift, if I dont want to marry, no one can force me..

Mu Chengxi stared at Wen Xin, initially not fully grasping her words. After a few seconds, he wrapped his long arms around her, pulling her tightly into his embrace.
His heart raced with a bit of chaos, as this was the most definitive answer he had ever received from Wen Xin. He had finally gotten what he had been waiting for.
Holding Wen Xin close, he inhaled her scent greedily, the sound of the rain outsideplementing the moment. He felt like the happiest man alive.
Wen Xin, wrapped in Mu Chengxis arms, could feel his erratic heartbeat. She chuckled softly within his embrace, realizing that even the mostposed men werent as collected as they appeared.
Mu Chengxi took Wen Xin to dine at the old madams courtyard. During the meal, an uninvited guest stumbled in, reeking of alcohol.
Mu Chengxi looked at the slumped figure of Mu Zhan with a dark expression. The atmosphere tensed as everyone waited for his reaction, while Wen Xin continued to eat, seemingly unaffected by the sudden intrusion.
Grandma, if you dont take care of Mu Chengxi, were all going to be driven to jump off a building! The Mu familys assets belong to all of us; why does he get the final say?
Mu Zhan, seated at the table, pointed usingly at Mu Chengxi, airing his grievances about the decisions made in thepany. Since Mu Chengxi took over, people were even less inclined to listen to Mu Zhan, making his job increasingly difficult.
The old madam frowned deeply at the sight of the incoherent Mu Zhan. The absurd things youve done at Mu Shi, dont think Im unaware. Comining here will do you no good. You better start correcting your own issues!
Seeing Mu Zhans outburst, the old madam felt a headacheing on. She couldnt understand how the newer generations of the Mu family were deteriorating, with the only hope resting on the other three grandsons.
My issue? My issue is your favoritism. Why does he, who does nothing in the capital and is notorious for his irresponsibility, be the Crown Prince of Beijing because of your favor, and even the head of the Mu family? Hes meddling in thepanys affairs and nearly ruining the Qin family!
Grandma, weve always been envious of your affection for him but never said anything because we thought he posed nopetition to us. But we were naive; its us whock the ability topete. You and grandfather had long nned to hand over the Mu family to him. We, who jump up and down, are just clowns!
In a fit of emotion, Mu Zhan stood up and, approaching the dining table, grabbed Wen Xins te and threw it to the ground.
What is she? Just a wild girl from the countryside. Were discussing family matters and shes still eating here, not knowing her ce. Get out! My wife hasnt even had a meal with Grandma, why should you?!
Enraged, Mu Zhan attempted to grab Wen Xins arm, intending to drag her out.
No one expected Mu Zhans move. The old madam became agitated at the sight of Mu Zhan attacking Wen Xin. This lunatic was really capable of doing anything.
Mu Jinyan, who had been wary since Mu Zhan charged in, stood to grab Mu Zhan, but before he could, a crisp sound of breaking bone echoed.
Everyone was shocked to see Mu Chengxi, who stood up with a somber face. His hand was on Mu Zhans shoulder. It was clear that the sound of the breaking bone didnte from him.
Following the direction of Mu Zhans arm, they saw Wen Xin holding his wrist with her porcin-like fingers. Mu Zhans arm now hung limply, clearly broken by Wen Xin.
Broken The concept of effortlessly breaking a grown mans arm with a simple twist was shocking.
Ahh It took about twenty seconds for the dyed pain to hit the drunken Mu Zhan before he screamed.
As he yelled, Mu Chengxi, without mercy, flung him across the room.
Housekeeper, take him to the hospital.
Mu Chengxis icy tone made everyone shiver, witnessing for the first time the wrathful side of the usually gentle Mu Chengxi.
The housekeeper and several servants quickly carried Mu Zhan out of the dining room, not daring any dy, fearing Mu Chengxis anger.
Meanwhile, Mu Chengxi took a wet wipe from a nearby box and carefully cleaned Wen Xins hands, his voice returning to its usual gentleness.
Next time, you dont have to do it yourself; you shouldnt dirty your hands.
Wen Xin, watching Mu Chengxis gentle care, raised an eyebrow and smiled in good spirits, responding, Okay!
The four people watching their interaction were filled with surprise and astonishment. After such amotion, the couple could still converse so calmlyit was indeed an eye-opener.
The old madam sighed deeply and her expression slowly returned to normal. She looked at Wen Xin thoughtfully; she had thought Mu Chengxi was unruly enough.
But having seen Wen Xins decisive action, she realized that Wen Xin was even more assertive than Mu Chengxi, no wonder she could tame him.
Aunt Fu, please prepare another set of tableware for Xiaoxin. Dont let irrelevant people spoil everyones mood for dinner and waste this good meal, the old madam said calmly to Aunt Fu standing nearby. She had weathered many storms in her life and did not take this small incident to heart.
Qin Qiong, who had been waiting in the car for Mu Zhan, hastily jumped out upon seeing him being carried out by several people. She inadvertently clutched at her belly as she moved, but she paid it no mind.
What happened? How did this happen? Qin Qiong, not minding the rain, rushed to Mu Zhans side to check on his injuries.
Young Madam, the Young Master slipped in the rainy weather, and he was drunk; he identally fell and broke his arm. We are preparing to take him to the hospital now. Since you are here, Young Madam, lets go to the hospital together..

As the butlers voice trailed off, the Mu familys driver arrived, and they lifted Mu Zhan into the car. Qin Qiong, holding Mu Zhans uninjured hand, sat in the vehicle.
The butler nced at the two in the back seat, opened the passenger door, and settled himself in, instructing, To the Central Hospital.
On the ride, Qin Qiong ceaselessly wiped the sweat from Mu Zhans forehead. Thebination of pain from his arm and the effects of alcohol had thrown him into disarray, causing him to move erratically.
Qin Qiong tried to restrain Mu Zhan to prevent further injury to his arm but didnt expect an unconscious, violent shove from him, striking her abdomen with his arm.
A sharp pain shot through her belly, followed by a warm sensation It was as if a warm current had passed between her legs
Ah Butler I think Im having a miscarriage
Hearing Qin Qiongs words, the butler, who had been contemting how to exin Mu Zhans injury, felt his head buzz. He almost wanted to leap from the moving car C how could he face the senior Mr. Mu with such back-to-back mishaps?
Hurry, dont go to the Central Hospital, go to the nearest one. Lady Qins well-being is paramount, hurry! The butler urged the driver to the closest hospital to minimize the damage.
The car stopped at a private hospital in Beijing ten minutester. The butler rushed out to the emergency room to find a doctor and exined the situation of the two passengers.
Once the emergency department staff learned of the butlers identity, the entire hospital staff sprang into action. Some contacted the orthopedics department, others the obstetrics department, and the atmosphere in the hospital instantly tensed.
After the initial chaos, Qin Qiong and Mu Zhan were taken to the operating room by the respective department chiefs for surgery.
Butler, what should we do now? Should we inform First Master and First Madam? We cant take responsibility for this situation!
The driver had never expected a miscarriage in such a circumstance. The already difficult-to-exin situation had be even moreplicated, and he was unsure of what to do.
Stay here and keep watch. Im going to call Young Master Chengxi to ask how to proceed. With that, the butler hurriedly left with his phone.
After dinner, as Mu Chengxi chatted with the old madam, his phone suddenly rang. Wen Xin nced at his phone, whichy beside her, picked it up, and handed it to him.
Mu Chengxi looked at the caller ID, paused for a moment, then took the phone and stepped outside.
Seeing Mu Chengxi leave, Mu Chengxu moved to sit next to Wen Xin, nudging her with her shoulder and softly asked.
Do you have any ns for tomorrow? Im going to a fashion show by Huoluo.
Do you want toe with me?
Tomorrow? Im afraid I cant make it; I have to pick something up at the airport, so I cant apany you, replied Wen Xin, with little interest in Huoluos new collectionunch.
I thought youd be interested, considering all your clothes are from Huoluo. Mu Chengxu looked at Wen Xin with a hint of regret. She thought that Wen Xin would be very interested in Huoluos clothes, so she specially asked her assistant to prepare two tickets for Huoluos new productunch and brought Wen Xin to buy some.
Wen Xin nced at her outfit and smiled. My clothes are all prepared by Chengxi
Her simple admission drew the attention of everyone in the room, finding it hard to imagine that the pampered Mu Chengxi would personally shop for Wen Xins clothes.
You mean, Chengxi bought these clothes for you? Mu Chengxu was surprised, knowing that except for the annual birthday gift for his grandmother, everything else was usually handled by Mu Dong and others.
Now, Mu Chengxi was thoughtfully preparing clothes for his girlfriend, which seemed incredibly unbelievable.
Wen Xin nodded lightly at the curious onlookers, content with enjoying Mu Chengxis care without finding anything amiss.
Mu Chengxi returned with his phone, approached Wen Xin, and spoke softly, I have to step out for a bit; rest in my courtyard, the room is ready.
Wen Xin nodded at Mu Chengxis hurried manner, not objecting to his request,
Okay, be careful on your way.
Alright, Im off then. After saying goodbye to the old madam and the others, Mu Chengxi quickly left.
With Mu Chengxi gone, Mu Chengxus gentle smile became more pronounced as she teasingly asked Wen Xin, Arent you curious about what hes up to?
He must be busy with his own things, Wen Xin replied with a light smile, ncing at her wristwatch to hint at the time to the old madam.
Grandma, its gettingte, I should let you rest now.
After Mu Chengxi left, Wen Xin felt the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, so she had no desire to stay any longer.
Indeed, its gettingte. . Xin girl, you should head to Chengxis courtyard to rest. Aunt Fu will bring you breakfast in the morning. Have a good sleep; you dont need to get up too early, the old madam told Wen Xin, clearly showing a great deal of affection for her. Despite Wen Xins somewhat cool demeanor, it did not detract from her likability in the eyes of the old madam, who showed her a considerable amount of favoritism.
Just after Wen Xin returned to Mu Chengxis courtyard, a servant promptly delivered a cup of honey water and left without saying anything.
Looking around Mu Chengxis courtyard, which had apletely different decorative style from the old madams, Wen Xin took a moment to survey the surroundings before sitting down on a sofa that had a distinctly European style, finding it extremelyfortable.
Shefortably nestled into the sofa, took out her hefty smartphone, and logged into her Di Ting ount because she had some things she wanted to ask
Yan Qing.
However, her message seemed to disappear into the void, receiving no response for a long time.
Wen Xin, known for her impatience, didnt wait for long before she dialed Yan Qings number directly. After a few rings, the call was finally picked up.
Boss? Yan Qings voice came through uncertainly, surprised by Wen Xins call at this hour.
What are you guys up to? Wen Xin, hearing the clear sound of gunfire on the other end of the phone, furrowed her brow in concern, sensing something off on Yan Qings side.
Boss, an hour ago, a group suddenly came to raid our mine. Were about to subdue them now. Dont worry, we havent had any casualties on our side. Its actually been quite thrilling; its been a long time since weve had something this exciting..

Yan Qings voice was filled with indescribable excitement. It had been too long since someone hade looking for trouble, and his new weapons finally had a chance to be used. He was overjoyed.
Listening to Yan Qings excited words, Wen Xin lifted her hand to rub her somewhat aching temples. It seemed today was not a good day for discussions. Better to wait until he was less busy.
Then you go ahead. After youre done, tell me who arranged for those blind people toe.
Alright, boss. Well definitely catch some alive and interrogate them thoroughly. I wonder whos not afraid of death to trouble us like this!
Yan Qing was in a state of extreme excitement and abruptly ended the call.
Looking at her phone that had been hung up, Wen Xin smiled lightly, finding it amusing. Letting these warmongers live a peaceful life seemed like a disservice to them. She hadnt expected that someone causing trouble would excite them so much.
Wen Xin logged into the dark web on her phone. It had been a long time since she had seen Wei Shisheng post any bounties. She wondered if Wei Shisheng had found the Shadow Alliance or had given up on the search. Something felt off, and she wondered if Wei Shisheng was nning something unpleasant.
Wen Xin posted a message on the dark web seeking information about Geng Qius disappearance, which she found overly strange.
She had been too busytely to concern herself with Geng Qius whereabouts, and by the time she realized Geng Qiu was no longer in Ice City, she had lost all leads on her.
She wanted to know who would take Geng Qiu away and what value Geng Qiu still had to them.
Currently, Geng Qiu was locked on the top floor of a private hospital by Geng Zewei. Sitting by the window, she stared nkly at the bustling streets outside, not knowing where she was or even the date. She only knew her days were numbered.
Her health was deteriorating daily, and now, just walking from the bed to the window nearly exhausted all her strength. She missed the times when Su Li and Geng Shikui doted on her.
Suddenly, the door to her room opened, and Geng Qiu turned her head to see the familiar yet strange woman who had brought her here.
Congrattions on surviving twenty days. Ive been coordinating with the hospital to find a suitable liver donor for you, and finally, weve found one. Youll soon be able to undergo a liver transnt surgery.
The woman walked over to Geng Qiu, looking at her with a jaundicedplexion, and smiled warmly.
A liver transnt? Hearing that she could continue to live with a transnt, Geng Qiuughed, but herughter was filled with sarcasm.
Why would Geng Zewei be so kind to let me livefortably? I must be the person he hates the most. The hardships he endured in his childhood were all because of me. If I hadnt deliberately plotted against him and framed him, my father might not have been so cruel to him.
Geng Qius voice was weak, barely audible, as if she was muttering to herself.
The hellish days she had endured had worn away her pride and edges. Living like this was worse than giving her a quick death.
I dont want to continue treatment. For the sake of our blood rtion, I beg him to let me die. Living like this is too painful.
By the end, Geng Qius emotionspletely copsed. No one knew how she had survived the past twenty days without even the chance to die.
Watching Geng Qiu curl up into a ball and sob uncontrobly, the woman squinted her eyes, chuckling coldly. Is this all it takes to break her? This was just the beginning.
Oh, theres one more thing I want to ask you. Do you know Wen Xin? Whats her rtionship with Geng Zewei?
Hearing the woman mention Wen Xin, Geng Qiu stopped crying, looked up from her arms, and faced the woman. You know Wen Xin too? Its her who got me into this mess. As for her rtionship with Geng Zewei
Geng Qiu paused, feigning mystery, then wiped the tears from her face and started bargaining with the woman.
Give me a phone, and Ill tell you about the rtionship between Wen Xin and Geng Zewei.
The woman eyed Geng Qiu, narrowing her eyes slightly. She had already investigated Geng Qius social connections. Now that the Geng family was gone and the Zhao family was unlikely to intervene on behalf of Geng Qiu, even if she had a phone, there was no one who could help her. Thus, she was not worried at all.
Okay, Ill have my assistant prepare a phone for you right now.
Saying this, the woman took out her phone, called her assistant, and arranged for a phone to be prepared for Geng Qiu.
After giving instructions, the woman looked at Geng Qiu, whose emotions had stabilized, seemingly reigniting her will to live.
Wen Xin is a girl from a poor county, very beautiful, and has some connection with my mother. She was raised by my grandmother from a young age. Geng Zewei likes her. From the moment Geng Zewei first saw Wen Xin, I could tell he liked her.
Not long ago, when Geng Zewei returned to Ice City, he even proposed to her, but she rejected him.
Geng Qiu spoke indifferently, sharing everything she knew as requested by the woman, but the womans expression turned ugly
The phone will be delivered to you. Stay alive and wait for the surgery.
The woman looked at Geng Qiu mentioning Wen Xin with hatred. She suddenly realized that Geng Qiu might be a good ally to remove Wen Xin.
Are you nning to take action against Wen Xin? I know you like Geng Zewei, but Geng Zewei likes Wen Xin. If you want to remove Wen Xin, I can help you
Geng Qius voice was weak, but her eagerness was apparent.
Not being able to eliminate Wen Xin was her biggest regret. If she could remove Wen Xin, she would have no regrets even if she died
The woman stopped her steps to leave, turned her head to look at Geng Qiu, Then cooperate well with the treatment. Ill give you this opportunity! After speaking, the woman opened the door and left Geng Qius room.
Geng Qiu sat on the windowsill, looking at the view outside, reigniting her hope for life. It seems she could still live a good life!
Late at night, when Mu Chengxi returned, it was already past 2 a.m. After taking a shower, he tiptoed to the bed and climbed in.
As soon as hey down, Wen Xin naturally hugged Mu Chengxi, nestling in his arms.
Mu Chengxi gently held Wen Xins cold hand, feeling her cold feet against his thigh, and couldnt help frowning..

Wen Xins words made Mu Chengxiugh softly. He hugged Wen Xin tighter, saying, I havent even had the pleasure, and youre already thinking about great-grandchildren. Arent you getting a little ahead of yourself? Little girl, youre still young. Lets not worry about great-grandchildren just yet.
Mu Chengxis voice was filled with affection. In his eyes, Wen Xin was just a young girl. Despite his uncontroble desire, the thought of having children had truly never crossed his mind. He couldnt bear the thought of her enduring pain.
Especially after witnessing Qin Qiongs condition being wheeled out of the surgery room at the hospital today, he didnt see childbirth as particrly desirable.
After Wen Xin warmed up a bit, she looked up at Mu Chengxi, What were you up to? Why did youe back sote?
Mu Zhan caused Qin Qiong to miscarry on the way to the hospital. The butler didnt know what to do, so he called me over. My uncle and aunt were making a big deal about it, so I had to handle it.
A miscarriage? Thats really unfortunate. Wen Xin wasnt interested in other peoples affairs. She hadnt met that woman and didnt feel any sympathy.
Wen Xin wrapped her arms around Mu Chengxis waist, finding afortable position in his embrace, I need to pick up Wen Huai from the airport tomorrow. Lets go to sleep, its gettingte.
Mu Chengxi leaned down to gently kiss the corner of Wen Xins lips, Ive arranged for Mu Dong to apany you tomorrow. I have some matters to attend to at home.
Imagining the Mu family members would surely storm the old mansion tomorrow to demand justice for Mu Zhan, it was better for Wen Xin to be away. He didnt want these troubles to sour her mood.
Okay.
Comforted by Mu Chengxis familiar scent, Wen Xin snuggled closer into his embrace and soon fell asleep.
The next morning, Wen Xin was awakened by an rm she had set in advance. ncing at the time on her phone and then at Mu Chengxi, who slept peacefully beside her, she kissed his lips gently before quietly getting out of bed and heading to the bathroom.
By the time Wen Xin had finished grooming, Mu Chengxi, wearing only a pair of boxer shorts, entered the bathroom. Wen Xin nced at him briefly before avertedly shifting her gaze, her ears unknowingly turning pink.
Mu Chengxi caught all of Wen Xins actions in his eyes, especially her blushingly pink ears, which he found incredibly cute.
He chuckled softly and hugged Wen Xin from behind, gently rubbing his cheek against her neck.
Your clothes are in the walk-in closet. While he spoke, Mu Chengxis eyes lingered on the emerald green jade bracelet on Wen Xins wrist, making her wrist appear even more slender and fair.
You can just leave with Mu Dongter, regardless of who tries to stop you.
The butler had already informed Mu Chengxi that other family members had arrived at the old mansion, including the most troublesome, Mu Jinrou.
Wen Xin, observing their reflection in the mirror and sensing the provocative atmosphere, teasingly raised an eyebrow at Mu Chengxi, What? You think I cant handle trouble? I was the one who fought; do I need to run?
Wen Xins lips curved into a faint smile. It wasnt that she disregarded the Mu family; she simply didnt see those scoundrels as significant. They were malignant tumors to be removed sooner orter. The timing didnt matter, as long as the removal was thorough.
Its not about running. I just dont want these troubles to upset you. Go pick up Wen Huai. Leave the rest to me. But now that were on the subject, why is Wen
Huaiing back all of a sudden?
Mu Chengxi had been curious about Wen Huais return but had not discussed it with Wen Xin, seeing her asleep.
After applying some makeup casually, Wen Xin turned to look at Mu Chengxis handsome face, his slender neck, his gently sliding corbone, and his sexy corbone
She swallowed hard, her armszily draping over Mu Chengxis shoulders, not daring to move much. She could clearly feel someones willpower slowly crumbling.
Although the Wen family is no more, hes still the eldest son of the Wen family. He just follows Ma Wenyuan around. Old Mr. Ou invited Ma Wenyuan to a banquet, so naturally, he has to apany Ma Wenyuan.
Ma Wenyuan is quite busy, so he just came back earlier on his own. He said Tan Xingyue prepared a lot of things for me, asked him to bring them back. Most importantly, Huahua was reported in the dormitory, and the dorm management wont allow pets, so I asked him to bring Huahua over. Its better to keep her close.
Huahua is a pet she raised herself, her treasure, and she couldnt bear to let it be neglected outside. So Wen Xin decided it was best to take care of it herself. She wouldnt be running around muchtely, and keeping Huahua at home wouldnt pose any risk.
Alright, then go have breakfast and head to the airport to pick up Wen Huai and Huahua. Also, have Mu Dong buy some supplies for Huahua. Do you want to send Wen Huai back to the Ma residence?
Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin to the walk-in closet. Feeling the heat from a certain area, Wen Xins mind became a bit foggy, hesitating for a moment.
Ah, I wont go to the Ma residence. Ill talk about the research institute after I get into college. Go freshen up.
Wen Xin, with her thoughts in disarray, jumped down from Mu Chengxis embrace. The temptation was bing too much to bear; who could resist such seduction?
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xins adorable actions,ughing softly, then exited the walk-in closet.
Wen Xin dressed simply as usual, in light blue jeans and a ck sweatshirt, looking youthful and energetic.
When the butler saw Wen Xining down the stairs from the second floor, he quickly directed the servants to bring out the prepared breakfast, respectfully informing Wen Xin, Miss Wen, this is the breakfast prepared by Aunt Fu.
Please take your time and enjoy.
Thank you. Wen Xins voice was cool as she thanked him, approached the dining room, took the bowl and chopsticks from a servant, and began to eat breakfast.
After Wen Xin started eating, the butler left. Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu walked inzily from outside when they saw Wen Xin in the dining room.
The breakfast was sumptuous, and after taking a sip of honeyed soy milk, Wen
Xin looked up at the two men who had just entered and waved them over.
Sit down and eat.
Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu didnt hesitate, sitting opposite Wen Xin. Liang Luoyu curiously looked at Wen Xin, Miss Wen, when we came in, there were quite a few cars parked outside. Are those people here to trouble Master Xi? Wen Xin took a bite of youtiao, looked at Liang Luoyu, and raised her eyebrows slightly, Youre asking me? How would I know? But theyre probably here because ofst nights incident.. Youll know if you follow Mu Chengxi to handle it, wont you?

Liang Luoyu took a bite of the beef and sesame seed cake. He almost choked on Wen Xins words. Liang Luoyu patted his chest.
I better not. I dont want to get involved in the affairs of the Mu family. I came to pick you up. Ill take you to the airport and let Mu Dong apany
Master Xi.
Liang Luoyu had heard early on that Master Xi had summoned Mu Dong to assist Wen Xin with her tasks. Liang Luoyu came along with Mu Dong, volunteering for the task, as the Mu familys affairs were beyond his responsibility. He only needed to stay by Master Xis side.
Since Master Xi was dealing with the Mu familys matters today, it would be most appropriate for Mu Dong to be by his side. He could protect Wen Xin well.
Wen Xin had no objections to Liang Luoyus arrangement. Suddenly, she remembered something and looked up at Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu, Why havent I seen Mu Bei?
Hes in Ice City handling some shopping mall matters. Miss Wen, did you hear about Geng Qius disappearance? The second uncle of the Geng family never mentioned her vanishing.
When the Geng family was brought up, Wen Xin pped her forehead hard; she felt she had forgotten something. Only now did she remember that she had not yet handed over that notebook to Ma Wenyuan.
I only heard about Geng Qius disappearance yesterday, which probably has nothing to do with Geng Shicheng. I suspect it was Geng Zewei who arranged for someone to take Geng Qiu away, but I havent confirmed it yet.
Last night, before Mu Chengxi came home, Wen Xin had specifically investigated Geng Qius whereabouts. Her disappearance was too coincidental, and Wen Xin felt that besides Geng Zewei, no one else would take Geng Qiu away, although she didnt know Geng Zeweis motive.
Then Ill have Mu Bei look into Geng Qius whereabouts. Geng Shikuis case has been decided, involving a huge amount of money. Hes been sentenced to life imprisonment, and all his assets have been frozen. Geng Shicheng didnt escape the fallout either; even the husband of that teacher from your school got implicated. Ice City has been quite unstabletely. Now the Zhao family reigns supreme, and Ive heard that Zhao Yuzheng is nning a marriage alliance with the Yan family.
Mu Dong was well-informed about the happenings in Ice City, all thanks to Mu Beis updates meant to be ryed to Master Xi.
But since Master Xi wasnt interested, Mu Dong hadnt had the chance to tell him. Now that Miss Wen was curious, he shared the information with her.
Wen Xin tapped the table lightly with her fingers, smiling faintly, The Zhao family might not go far with Zhao Hongyuan at the helm; I just hope Zhao Yuzheng has some sense.
Wen Xin wasnt very interested in the affairs of the Zhao family. If not for a slight connection between Zhao Hongda and Wen Xins parents, she probably wouldnt have any dealings with the Zhao family.
Wen Xin had finished eating and put down her chopsticks just as Mu Chengxi came down from the second floor.
Today, Mu Chengxi was dressed very formally, in ck trousers and a white shirt, which showcased his impable physique. His tall figure was revealed in all its glory.
Wen Xinzily propped her chin with one arm, gazing at Mu Chengxi with bright, adoring eyes, her expression mischievously teasing.
Master Xi, dressed so formally today, whats the asion? This look makes you seem even more ruthless.
Liang Luoyu rarely saw Mu Chengxi dressed like this. He remembered thest time Mu Chengxi was dressed this way was at Old Master Mus funeral.
Since all those irrelevant people are around, its time to hold a proper Mu familv n meeting to establish some rules. so we wont have troublemakers causing us grief again.
Mu Chengxi pulled out a chair and sat down, his dark, deep eyes narrowing slightly, a fierce light shing within them.
Thest time he exposed his identity as the family head was to warn those people to behave themselves. This time, he would kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, lest those people forget what kind of person he was.
Liang Luoyu and Mu Dong nced at each other as they watched Mu Chengxis stern and resolute demeanor, involuntarily feeling a sense of dread for those involved.
It seemed that this time, Master Chengxi was truly prepared to put the Mu family in order. It was just unclear how many would suffer the consequences.
After finishing his breakfast, Liang Luoyu watched Wen Xin, who was casually propped up by one hand under her chin, chatting intermittently with Mu Chengxi. He didnt dare to interrupt the conversation between the two big shots, so he sat quietly, waiting for instructions.
Wen Xin watched Mu Chengxi finish hisst bite of a bun, stood up, and gave him a teasing smile, When its possible to resolve matters with force, try not to waste words with them. After all, filial piety is often instilled through discipline.
Hearing Wen Xins words, Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu both widened their eyes in shock. Miss Wens words were like adding fuel to the fire. With Master Chengxi about to take action against the Mu family, it seemed their days were numbered, and Wen Xin appeared to worry that their downfall wouldnt be thorough enough.
This was truly a matter for the big shots, beyond their understanding.
Alright, dont worry, I assure you they will all be very filial! Mu Chengxi stood up, adjusted the hood on Wen Xins sweatshirt, gently kissed the top of her head, and then let go of her.
I might be busy today, so call me if you need anything. Once youre done, you can go straight back to Zhi Lan, and Ill join you there after Ive finished here.
Okay, then Ill be going! Wen Xin stepped out of Mu Chengxis arms, walked to the sofa in the living room, picked up her backpack, and left with Liang Luoyu.
Liang Luoyu took Wen Xin down another path, where there were no members of the Mu family. His car was parked there; he opened the door for Wen Xin to get in, then sat in the drivers seat and drove away from the old Mu residence.
After seeing off Wen Xin, the tender look on Mu Chengxis face vanished, his dark, deep eyes turning very somber, devoid of any warmth, and seemingly colder and more prating.
Master Chengxi, shall we go to the Enforcement Hall now, or to the old madams courtyard?
Go directly to the Enforcement Hall. They want justice, so lets give them justice from the Enforcement Hall.
As Mu Chengxi spoke, a cold smile appeared on his face. The Mu family had been without proper governance for too long, making them forget that the Mu family has its family rules.
Alright, then Ill go to the old madams courtyard to inform everyone to meet at the Enforcement Hall.
After hearing Mu Chengxis words, Mu Dong knew what he was nning. The old patriarch, Old Master Mu, had been dead for many years, and although the olddy was decisive and firm, she seldom interfered with thepanys affairs, leading many to believe that the Mu family had no head and started to do as they pleased, building their own power.
In reality, Mu Chengxi had a good grasp of their power dynamics. He had no intention of taking over the Mu familys affairs. As long as those people didnt go too far, Mu Chengxi naturally wouldnt bother with them.
It was a pity they couldnt see the reality and always tried to cause trouble for Wen Xin. How could Mu Chengxi allow them to livefortably?
With a steady gait, Mu Dong approached the old madams courtyard, bowed respectfully to her, and then informed the seated members that Mu Chengxi was waiting for them at the Enforcement Hall for a meeting..

Hearing that Mu Chengxi called for a meeting at the Enforcement Hall, everyones faces fell. They assumed that in the presence of Old Madam Mu, Mu Chengxi would certainly give them, the elders, some face.
But if they went to the Enforcement Hall, there would be no distinction between uncles and nephews; the only distinction would be between the family head and themon members.
I wont go. Im here to seek justice for my son. Mu Leis arm was broken by that by Wen Xin. I want her toe out and apologize. Otherwise, this matter wont be over, even with Mu Chengxis protection!
Mu Jingang shouted in the old madams living room, raising his voice. He dared not confront Mu Chengxi directly, which was why he came to make a fuss in front of the old madam. Otherwise, he would have gone straight to Mu Chengxis courtyard to demand an exnation.
Now, they were being asked to go to the Enforcement Hall, but how could they possibly agree? Once there, only Mu Chengxis word would matter.
Mu Dong, observing Mu Jingangs arrogant behavior, hesitated for a moment before stepping out of the living room to the corridor to call Mu Chengxi.
Master Xi, the elder doesnt want to go to the Enforcement Hall. He says this isnt a matter for the Mu family; he just wants to get justice for young master Mu Zhan and demands an apology from Miss Wen.
After hearing Mu Dongs report, Mu Chengxi chuckled lightly on the other end of the phone. Hes dreaming. Tell him theres only one waye to the Enforcement Hall, or leave the Mu family. If he upsets Grandma, dont me me for erasing their names from the Mu family register.
Mu Chengxi might not be so unyielding in other matters. After all, he had to give the old madam some face. However, regarding Wen Xins matter, even if the heavens were toe, he would not be able topromise.
Mu Chengxi waited in the Enforcement Hall for half an hour without seeing a single person arrive, only to see Mu Dong hurry in.
Master Xi, Sir has arrived, and those people left the old madams courtyard cursing after a few words with Sir, none daring toe to the Enforcement Hall.
Mu Dong had witnessed the ugly faces of those people throughout the ordeal. Fortunately, the old madam wasnt upset, otherwise it could have made her ill from anger.
Cursing and leaving? Do they think they can just leave without considering me? I am the head of the Mu family, after all, right?
Mu Chengxi sat casually in the chair, his gaze coldly sweeping over the people in the Enforcement Hall, his lips curling into a strange smile.
Send wordthose who dont appear in the Enforcement Hall within twenty minutes will be expelled from the Mu family. If there are any objections, they cane and speak to me face to face.
After Mu Chengxis order, Mu Jingdong, who had been sitting beside him, cast aplicated look at him. He wondered what got into this kid today to lose his patience like this.
Noticing Mu Jingdongs gaze, Mu Chengxi turned his head toward him, What is it, Fifth Uncle?
Nothing much. I was just thinking youve been patient for so long. Is it a bit hasty to act now? After all, many things are still unclear.
Mu Dong echoed from Mu Jingdongs side, Yeah, Master Xi, we havent fully caught their weakness yet, and we still have to consider the old madam. They were saying there wouldnt be a next time as they left. You know what that means better than I do, right?
Mu Chengxis gaze turned icy as he looked at Mu Dong, who quickly bowed his head and dared not speak further. He knew he had displeased Master Xi with his words. He had only spoken the truth and didnt think he had done anything wrong.
Chengxi, we need to send someone to City C. Who do you think is appropriate for the job?
Mu Jingdong, feeling the tension from Mu Chengxis stare, hurriedly changed the subject, hoping to prevent any further me on Mu Dong.
How many days will it take?
Sure enough, Mu Jingdongs words sessfully diverted Mu Chengxis attention. Mu Chengxi turned his head to look at him, fiddling with a pen in his fingers, lightly tapping on the table.
About three days. They need to bring back a batch of goods, nothing too troublesome Mu Jingdong said, feeling the pressure of speaking with Mu Chengxi, whose mere gaze could be daunting.
Let Mu Dong go, Mu Chengxi said, standing up. Without another nce at Mu Dong, he turned and walked away.
After Mu Chengxi left, Mu Jingdong gave Mu Dong a raised eyebrow look, smiling awkwardly, I helped you out of your predicament, but I seem to have angered your Master Xi.
Mu Dong, already ustomed to his masters temper, smiled faintly, Master Xis temperes and goes quickly. Fifth Uncle, please arrange for two people to apany me. I will make a quick trip and return. I still need to protect Miss Wen at Mr. Ous birthday banquet. It would be toote otherwise.
Chengxi is taking Wen Xin to Mr. Ous birthday banquet? Isnt that inappropriate? Mu Jingdong had heard that the old madam had acknowledged Wen Xin as her granddaughter-inw, but taking Wen Xin to the Ou family seemed somewhat unsuitable.
Its not Master Xi whos taking Miss Wen to Mr. Ous birthday banquet. Mr. Ou and Miss Wen know each other personally. He specifically invited Miss Wen to his birthday banquet
Mu Dongs words seemed to drop like a bomb for Mu Jingdong, prompting him to ponder the background of this girl. She knew Mr. Ou personally and was even personally invited by him to his birthday banquet, which was truly unbelievable.
In the capital, people would break their heads for a chance to attend Mr. Ous birthday party, yet they had no opportunity, whereas Wen Xin was personally invited by Mr. Ou, which was beyond belief.
What kind of background does Mu Chengxis girlfriend have? Give Uncle Five some inside information, and Ill take care of you in the future!
Mu Jingdong looked at Mu Dong shrewdly, trying to extract some secrets. Wen Xin was too mysterious; although she wasnt involved in themunity of martial artists, it seemed everyone rted to her was.
Confronted with Mu Jingdongs probing eyes, Mu Dong shook his head emphatically, Uncle Five, thats a bit too much. Its like sending me into a trap. Even if I knew anything about Miss Wen, I wouldnt tell you. Dont set me up!
Youre not as easy to talk to as Mu Bei. Hes much more straightforward than you, Mu Jingdong huffed at Mu Dong, feeling that Mu Dong was too clever, unlike Mu Bei, who was easier to fool.
Exactly, Uncle Five, youre right. Do you know why Im in the capital, and Mu Bei is stuck in Ice City? Its all because hes too naive, saying anything thates to mind and angered Master Xi. Thats why he cant return from Ice City.
Mu Dong looked at Mu Jingdong with a triumphant smile, not foolish enough to take Mu Jingdongs bait. Whether Mu Jingdong could protect him or not, he hadnt forgotten his loyalty to Mu Chengxi..

Wen Xin and Liang Luoyu arrived at the airport just in time. They had just reached the airport when Wen Huai, carrying a suitcase and a pet carrier, walked out from the terminal.
Just as Wen Xin was about to approach him, a gorgeously dressed woman got out of a car and walked towards Wen Huai. After a brief conversation and taking the suitcase from him, she did not take the pet carrier.
Liang Luoyu, observing Wen Huai and then looking at Wen Xins cold expression beside him, hesitated before asking softly, Is that woman Ma Wenyuans wife? I think Ive seen her at some banquet before.
Yes, thats Ma Wenyuans wife, Wen Zhimo.
Hearing that Ma Wenyuans wife also had the surname Wen, Liang Luoyu turned to look at Wen Xin with surprise, Shes rted to you too?
My aunt, Wen Xin responded casually. Otherwise, do you think Wen familys assets could have fallen into Ma Wenyuans hands so easily?
Wen Xin chuckled lightly at Liang Luoyus dumbfounded look, then teasingly raised her eyebrows, Have you been taking the medicine I gave you? Otherwise, howe you havent improved at all?
I Liang Luoyu started to say something but swallowed his words as he looked into Wen Xins eyes, murmuring under his breath, I always feel like youre scolding me, but I have no proof
Youre actually not wrong about that, but the medicine I gave you really does help your brain, dont doubt it! Wen Xin said with a soft smile, then patted Liang Luoyus shoulder, Wait for me here. Ill be right back.
Wen Xin nced in the direction not too far away, then casually walked towards Wen Huai with a carefree and reckless demeanor, exuding an air of wild elegance.
Liang Luoyu watched her figure from behind and couldnt help feeling like he was seeing Mu Chengxi C that overwhelming aura was just too much.
Wen Zhimo was momentarily taken aback by Wen Xins arrival. She was speaking kindly to Wen Huai one moment, and the next, her expression turned ugly.
What are you doing here? Didnt you say you would never return to the Wen family? Why are you here now? Wen Zhimo turned her head away, unwilling to spare Wen Xin another nce, still unable to forget the harsh words Wen Xin had once said to her.
I didnte back for the Wen family this time. Since Auntie remembers my words so well, then please continue to remember them if you think itll make you feel better, Wen Xin replied without any extra words, took the pet carrier from Wen Huai, turned around, and walked back towards Liang Luoyu.
After Wen Xin left, Wen Zhimo sneakily looked in Wen Xins direction. Seeing Wen Xin with Liang Luoyu, her already displeased expression became nervous.
Didnt Ma Wenyuan say she was with that Mu Chengxi from the Mu family? Why is she now with the Liang familys young master? Why does she pick boyfriends who are so unreliable?
Wen Zhimo watched every move of Wen Xin, fighting the urge to go over and drag Wen Xin back home.
Watching Wen Zhimos agitated demeanor, Wen Huai couldnt help but smile slightly. He took the initiative to hold Wen Zhimos arm, Aunt, if youre worried about my sister, just tell her directly. Let her know, why be so stubborn? Youre just like her, not willing to speak out and bear everything alone.
That young master Liang is my sisters friend and is often around Mu Chengxi. Mu Chengxi is not as bad as the rumors in Beijing say. Hes very kind to my sister, and you dont have to worry at all.
Wen Huais voice was calm, and his gaze remained on Wen Xin. He cherished his sister and would naturally keep a close watch over her.
He might not have ess to Mu Chengxis information, but he has seen how well Mu Chengxi treated Wen Xin, and he believes Mu Chengxi would not hurt her.
Youre still too naive. With the chaos in the Mu family and Old Madam Mu in charge, your sister, who has always been uneducated and unknown about her academic performance, refuses to return to the Wen family and has no support. Do you think the Mu family will treat your sister well?
Wen Zhimos concern was evident as she watched Wen Xin get into Liang Luoyus car, only turning her gaze back after the car had driven away.
Your sister has always been too opinionated, refusing to listen to anyone. She wasted her life for the sake of that girl from the Tan family. In the future, everyone will say shes just a wild girl from the mountains. Even if Mu Chengxi likes her, shell inevitably be bullied and ridiculed by others.
Hearing Wen Zhimos words, Wen Huai didnt argue or exin how famous Wen Xin currently was. Instead, he gently embraced Wen Zhimo,forting her with a mature tone, Auntie, your tough exterior but soft heart is really endearing. With you around, if anyone dares to bully my sister, youd be the first to protect her. Why worry about those people?
As he spoke, Wen Huais tone darkened, and he said in a very mature tone, Aunt, Sister has her own things to do. She didnte back to you because she didnt want to bring you trouble. Dont me her.
Of course, I know that. But shes ultimately a member of the Wen family. Shes suffered so much being away, and I, as her aunt, cant help but worry. Shes just like your mother, too stubborn. If she had been a bit softer back then, maybe Lets not talk about it anymore. Lets go home.
Wen Zhimo seemed resigned, shaking her head. She had not understood much back then, and by the time she did, everything had already happened. The only thing she could do was protect her brothers children, but even in this, she felt she had failed.
Wen Xin sat in the car with Liang Luoyu driving. He kept ncing at the rearview mirror, worried about Wen Xins mood and considering whether to call Mu Chengxi.
Just drive. You dont have to look at me. Take me to Zhuge Jingmings clinic; I have something to do.
Hearing Wen Xins tone not as cold as before, Liang Luoyu rxed, changed his route at the traffic light, and headed towards Zhuge Jingmings clinic.
Wen Xiaoxin, you and your aunt dont get along well? But I see you have a good rtionship with Ma Wenxuan. Whats the story there?
The story is simple. I disobeyed, and my aunt got angry, so she cut ties with me. But Ma Wenxuan is different. Although hes my aunts husband, hes also my fathers disciple. Weve kept in touch, so I call him Uncle Ma, not
Uncle-inw..

Wen Xin held the kitten in her arms, gently squeezing its tiny, twitching ears with a slight smile. She seemed to be in a good mood.
Looking through the rearview mirror, Liang Luoyu saw Wen Xins face. For a moment, he couldnt tell if what Wen Xin said was true or not.
He thought Wen Xin was hard to figure out. Her true words sounded like lies, and she was serious about her lies. It was confusing.
Lets drop it. Youre always bluffing. Talking to you, one cant tell if youre serious or not. I wont ask about your family anymore. Later, when you go to Zhuge Jingmings, remember to get some traditional medicine for me. I think my brain isnt working well, and I need some medicine.
Wen Xin took out her buzzing phone, looked at Liang Luoyu, who seemed a bit annoyed, and smiled lightly. This silly guy finally admitted his brain wasnt right. She found it funny.
She saw a message from Mu Chengxi on her phone. He said he had sorted his matters and asked when they could eat together.
Wen Xin replied to Mu Chengxi with patience, telling him she was going to Zhuge Jingmings clinic and wasnt sure when she would be back. She told him not to wait for her for dinner.
Liang Luoyu parked the car outside Zhuge Jingmings clinic, where many luxury cars were lined up. It looked like Zhuge Jingmings business was doing well.
Since Zhuge Jingming cured the old madam, hes be very popr. I heard that the Chinese Medicine Department of Beijing Universitys medical school specially invited him to be an honorary professor this year. Probably, many students will join the traditional medicine department.
Wen Xin saw the cars and answered lightly. She also heard Zhuge Jingming had brought some talented young junior doctors from Green Physician Sect for training.
Zhuge Jingming is not like those frauds. Hes really skilled, Wen Xin knew about Zhuge Jingmings medical skills, so she trusted him with Old Madam Mus health care.
She got out of the car, leaned on the passenger window, and smiled at Liang Luoyu, who had a sad expression on his face, Please buy some stuff for the little cat. If youre not sure what to get, ask Mu Bei. He knows better.
After buying, just go home. Master Xi is there, and I might stay long at Zhuge Jingmings. You dont have toe back for me. Ill go back by myself when Im done. Dont worry, Ill get your medicine!
Wen Xin spoke as Liang Luoyu listened carefully. When he heard herst words, he looked a bit upset and squinted at Wen Xin, Thanks!
No worries. Drive safe.
Liang Luoyu drove off, and Wen Xin walked into Zhuge Jingmings clinic alone. The clinic was full of people waiting. Wen Xin looked around, hesitated, and then decided to just go in through the front door.
Right then, a woman rushed in with a three or four-year-old child, shouting,
Master Zhuge, please, save my son! He has a high fever and is unconscious
The woman was loud, and the child in her arms was still and pale, clearly very sick.
Wen Xin was about to help when a man stopped the woman.
Hey, if your kid has a fever, go to a hospital. What are you doing here in a Chinese medicine clinic? You think acupuncture will fix it? Youre just making trouble.
Yeah, do you know how long weve waited? Youe in yelling. My grandma has heart problems. If you scare her, can you take the me?
The woman panicked. She had taken her child from the hospital after no improvement in three days.
The woman looked at the unfriendly people around her and panicked. She had brought her child out of the hospital. The child had been hospitalized for three days and did not get better. His condition was getting worse, so she brought the child out.
She didnt expect her child to faint on the way here. She was also frightened.
Im sorry, my child is unconscious. Please let Master Zhuge see him. Ill pay whatever it costs if my child gets better.
The woman looked simple, not showing any brand, but she spoke well, like someone from a wealthy family.
Hearing her, some people got mad and confronted her.
So, having money makes you better? Why so proud? Offering to pay our bills?
If you can, pay for everyone here. I dont believe that you can do so. You look poor, but talk big. Just a scammer!
After the man spoke, everyone looked at the woman, who was shaking and had never been insulted like this.
At that moment, the doctor inside heard the noise outside. A person who arranged the number came out from inside. He held a number te in his hand and gave it to the woman. He also took the childs pulse and checked the childs condition.
Lady, there are twenty people before you. And looking at your child, you should go to a hospital. Waiting here might be toote.
Thats right. Look at your child. Not going to a hospital anding here is wasting time!
The woman, tears in her eyes, was overwhelmed. If the hospital could have helped, she wouldnt havee.
My child was in the hospital for three days with no improvement. Im desperate. Please help me
She held her child tight. The childs face was turning from pale to blue, a bad sign.
Suddenly, the childs breathing got fast, with slight shaking, scary to see.
Could this be some poison, about to get worse?
A voice from the crowd made everyone step back, worried about a contagious disease.
Baby, baby, dont scare mommy, the woman knelt down, putting the child on herp, patting his back, crying from helplessness.
The doctor who gave out number tags was scared too, and ran into the consultation room to call Zhuge Jingming to check the critical situation of the child..

Wen Xin quickly stepped out from the corner. She hadnt acted immediately because she didnt want to rush in and possibly make things worse, but now she couldnt wait any longer.
She walked over to the child, took him from the womans arms, andid him on a nearby table. She swiftly unwrapped his nket to help him breathe easier.
With no hesitation, Wen Xin took out several medical silver needles she carried with her.
Holding the twitching child steady with one hand, she quickly unwrapped the
needles with her mouth and expertly inserted six of them into the childs body.
Instantly, the childsplexion changed from blue to pale, his breathing slowed down, and the convulsions gradually stopped.
Counting the seconds, about thirtyter, Wen Xin removed the needles and tossed them into a nearby trash can.
As she turned around, the child burst into tears.
Hearing her child cry, the stunned woman snapped back to reality. She picked up her son from the table and softly soothed him.
Just then, Zhuge Jingming had just rushed in, and upon hearing the childs cry, he frowned slightly. Looking at Yan Lin, he said, If the child can cry, its not as serious as you imed. You said he was practically going to die.
I really didnt exaggerate, Master. The child was convulsing all over, breathing rapidly, and his face had turned blue. It was clearly
Yan Lin, realizing he was speaking too freely about sensitive matters, trailed off and closed his mouth.
Madam, your baby
Zhuge Jingming looked toward the womanforting her child and noticed Wen Xin standingzily by the table. His eyes lit up, understanding now why the childs dire condition had suddenly improved.
Master Zhuge, thisdy here saved the child. Her medical skills are extraordinary!
An elderly man near Wen Xin had witnessed her saving the child. He mused that traditional medicine might be making aeback, astonished by the young womans expertise, possibly rivaling even Zhuge Jingmings.
Those watching Wen Xins rxed demeanor started to wonder if she hade to cause trouble.
They werent interested in drama; they were here for treatment.
The woman had calmed her child, noticing his fever seemed to have dropped.
She rushed over to Wen Xin, Miss, please check my baby again; his fever seems to have gone down
The crowd, driven by curiosity, gathered around, and even Zhuge Jingming came over to examine the child.
The childs fever has indeed subsided Zhuge Jingming nced at Wen Xin, unsure of her purpose here and reluctant to reveal her identity.
Lets discuss this inside. Madam, pleasee with me. Wen Xin, with her backpack, led the way into Zhuge Jingmings clinic with everyone watching.
Zhuge Jingming warmly invited the woman and her child into the clinic.
The waiting patients were confused about the situation, eager to know who the girl was. Was she a new doctor at the clinic? Her acupuncture skills were impressive.
Why do you let that woman in? She was thest to arrive, and weve been waiting all morning! The loudest protester spoke again, pretending to be indignant and speak for everyone.
Yan Lin, with a cold look, replied, Sir, the woman with the child is not Master Zhuges patient, so her going in doesnt affect your wait. Please understand. Thats right, the child was treated by the youngdy, not by Master Zhuge. No harm done.
The elderly man who had praised Wen Xin before now sat quietly, stroking his beard with one hand, and his wise eyes filled with admiration.
Wen Xin entered the treatment room, where some present didnt recognize her and were somewhat resentful of her intrusion.
You werent called yet, donte in! A middle-aged man spoke harshly, his voice filled with anger.
Zhibai, keep quiet. Do you know who she is? How dare you speak to her like that! Zhuge Jingming quickly followed behind Wen Xin, scolding those who disrespected her.
Its okay. I came to talk to you about something. You deal with your patients first; Ill check on the child, and we can talkter.
Wen Xin, not bothered by the disrespect, didnt like revealing her identity. If people didnt know who she was and offended her, she found it forgivable and not worth fussing over.
Alright, then. Wait for me for a moment. Please take thisdy and the child to the back treatment room, and Ill join you shortly.
Wen Xin nodded and gestured for the woman carrying the child to follow her into the treatment room.
Miss, my baby has had a fever for three days with no improvement, just injections and IVs. Its heartbreaking. I had no choice but to bring him out, and luckily, we found you, or else
Its okay. Your child is much better now. Sit down, and Ill check him.
Wen Xin had the woman sit with the child; then she felt the childs pulse.
After a few minutes, Wen Xin released the childs wrist, took out a medicine bottle from her bag, and gave the child a candy-like pill.
The child, now awake, looked up with misty, beautiful eyes, showing signs of his long fever. It was probably because the fever hadsted for too long that the childs condition was not very good
YouYou, open your mouth. Sister has a candy for you. The woman softly coaxed her child, gently pressing her cheek to his.
The child, hearing about the candy, perked up, opened his mouth, and waited for Wen Xin to give him the treat..

Wen Xin, relieved that the child seemed to have no issues with his intelligence, ced the candy bean into his mouth.
After tasting the sweet and sour candy, the childs previously bewildered eyes brightened with a smile. With a soft and tender voice, he said, Thank you, pretty sister!
Youre wee! Wen Xin gently pinched the childs now rosy cheeks, smiling affectionately.
The little one is doing well. The high fever didnt damage his brain. I was sure of it when I was inserting the needles. His limbs are fine too. If he doesnt get a fever tonight, he should be recovered.
The woman was amazed at Wen Xin, not expecting to encounter such a miraculous healer here, especially one so young, around twenty years old.
Hearing Wen Xin confirm her child was alright, the woman burst into tears, overwhelmed with emotion after having been so close to despair.
Alright, stop crying. Why did youe by yourself? Its not good for the child to be in the wind right now. Have someonee to pick you up. Ill take you out through the front door.
Wen Xin eyed the womans clothes, sensing that she must be someone of no small importance, and it was strange that she came alone with her child to seek medical help.
I had an argument at home. They wanted to take the child to another hospital, but I wanted to bring him to Master Zhuge, so we disagreed. Fortunately, I met you; otherwise, my baby
The womans emotions surged as she spoke, the stress of the past three days pouring out. She was nearly driven mad with worry for her sick child.
Wen Xin sat quietly, letting the woman cry until she was finished. She wrote down a prescription and ced it next to the candy jar, sliding both towards the woman.
Use this prescription for the childs baths. He should fully recover in three days. Keep this pill; if he feels unwell, he can take one.
The woman, now calmer, held Wen Xins gifts and softly thanked her.
Miss, lets exchange contact information so I can transfer the medicines cost to you!
Theres no need for payment. We can exchange contact information, though. You can message me on WeChat if you need anything. Wen Xin felt an unexpected softness in her heart for the mother and child, perhaps because the child was so adorable. She was willing to help the mother and son.
After exchanging contacts, the womans husband arrived to pick her up. Wen Xin escorted them out through the front door of the Zhuge residence.
A Hongqi car was parked outside. Wen Xin nced at the license te and squinted slightly, realizing the womans status was indeed not ordinary.
Miss Wen, thank you for today. Once my baby is better, Ill treat you to a meal. Please dont refuse when the timees! The woman, holding her child, leaned out the car window to speak warmly to Wen Xin.
Wen Xin waved without a word and turned to walk back.
The man in the car watched Wen Xins retreating figure, somewhat surprised by her demeanor.
Are you saying that youngdy cured our baby? The man held his son, who was enjoying a lollipop, still in disbelief. The hospital could not do anything about it, yet this youngdy had a solution.
Yes, she saved our son. Master Zhuge showed her great respect. Im not sure what her status is, but now that our little treasure is well, lets go home. We dont want to worry Grandfather anymore, especially with his birthday in three days. If we make Grandfather anxious, well be in big trouble!
The woman gently pinched YouYous cheek and leaned on the mans shoulder, speaking softly.
Back in the courtyard, Zhuge Jingming emerged from the treatment room, his plump body moving towards Wen Xin with a smile.
Little Uncle-Master, what brings you here today?
I came to seek treatment. I want to regte my body. Every time I have my period, my whole body feels cold. It must be the impact from back then. I want to adjust it.
Zhuge Jingmings expression darkened upon hearing Wen Xins words. She had been severely injured in the past, and despite his master and fathers efforts, they only managed to save her, leavingsting effects.
Wen Xin smiled wryly, knowing the difficulty. A hint of helplessness was in her smile.
Ive never thought of treating myself because I figured Id be alone all my life. Life and death, Ive seen it all, nothing left to cling to. Whether my body is well or not doesnt really matter to me.
But after meeting Mu Chengxi, he changed my thoughts. I even started to want a family with him
Zhuge Jingming looked at Wen Xin, and even though she didnt spell it out, he understood what she was getting at. But he knew it was going to be a tough journey.
Little Uncle-Master Master, rest assured, I will cooperate with you fully. Do you have any treatment ns? You know my medical skills are far inferior to yours, so Im not sure how I can be of help.
You can assist with the acupuncture. Letsbine it with traditional Chinese medicine and see how it goes after one course of treatment.
Wen Xin nned to stay in the capital for a while. She had calcted that one month would be just enough for a course of treatment to see if there was any effect.
Good. When do you want to start, Little Uncle-Master Master? Have you prepared the prescription? Should it be traditional Chinese herbal tea or made into pills?
Lets make it into pills. I dont want to tell Mu Chengxi about my health yet. I dont want to add to his worries.
Wen Xin handed over the prepared prescription and the acupuncture points chart to Zhuge Jingming. He was amazed at Wen Xins medical expertise upon reviewing her materials. If his Grandmaster were still alive, he would surely be astounded by her skill.
Only Wen Xin could have conceived such a treatment method.
Ill get my assistant to prepare the herbs and start making the medicine now.
We should have the pills ready by noon tomorrow. As for the acupuncture
Acupuncture once every three days, around noon. Ille over every three days. You must rest well; any small mistake could mean I might never recover.
Wen Xin looked at Zhuge Jingming with a serious face. She sought him out for this reason, treating this matter with utmost seriousness. She believed that probably only Zhuge Jingming could help her.
Dont worry, Little Uncle-Master. From now on, I will rest one day every three days and devote all my energy to your treatment. To me, you are more important. If I can heal you, when I meet the Grandmaster down below, I can proudly say to him and Master that I have not failed their expectations..

Zhuge Jingming looked at Wen Xin and felt that she seemed more human now, no longer indifferent to life and death as she had been before.
She was finally willing to think about herself. If their Grandmaster in heaven had a spirit, he could rest easy now.
When Zhuge Jingming mentioned their master and senior brother, Wen Xin turned her head to look at him, I heard youve brought the Green Physician Sect to prominence. Master would be even happier to know how well the school is doing today.
Wen Xin had always wanted to do something for the Green Physician Sect, but although she was the masters junior disciple, she had never been involved with the schools affairs and didnt have much emotional attachment to it.
Speaking of the Green Physician Sect, Zhuge Jingming became somewhat excited, The schools sess today is entirely thanks to the opportunities youve given us, Little Uncle Master. Your abilities have not only propelled the Green Physician Sect but have also made traditional Chinese medicine quite popr.
Wen Xin looked at Zhuge Jingming, the old smooth talker, with a light smile. It wasnt that she found him insincere, but seeing such genuine emotion from him made her a bit ufortable.
Alright, lets not talk about that. Master asked me to take care of the Green Physician Sect before he passed. I havent done well these past few years, but thankfully, Ive had a chance.
Wen Xin hesitated for a moment while looking at Zhuge Jingming and raised an eyebrow, Your clinic is too crowded, and I think it would be better to divide it into departments. Why not establish a hospital? How many people are still in the Green Physician Sect? Lets see what scale we can achieve
When Zhuge Jingming heard Wen Xin suggesting building a hospital for the Green Physician Sect, he became even more excited, grasping her hand tightly,
Little Uncle Master, on behalf of the Green Physician Sect, I thank you!
Zhuge Jingming shared with Wen Xin the current state of the Green Physician Sect, and she mulled over it. She thought that Nan Xu would be the most suitable person to handle the hospital project.
Tomorrow, I will arrange for someone toe and discuss the hospital matter with you in depth. Ill provide the funding. You can make any requests you have, including picking the location.
Little Uncle Master I I dont know what to say at this moment. I will cooperate with you fully to help you recover.
Zhuge Jingming wasnt young anymore, and he didnt know how much longer he could take care of the Green Physician Sect. But with Wen Xins help, he believed that the school would not only survive but thrive even more.
After talking with Zhuge Jingming, Wen Xin wasnt in a hurry to leave. She let Zhuge Jingming go back to treating his waiting patients and walked into the pharmacy to check out his equipment and pick up some Chinese herbs for Liang Luoyu, to properly treat his brain.
By the time Wen Xin finished her tasks and returned home, it was about eight oclock. Zhuge Jingmings wife knew Wen Xin had visited the clinic and had prepared avish feast, insisting Wen Xin eat before leaving.
As she was about to leave, Madame Zhuge made a special effort to prepare a portion of ribs and chicken soup for Mu Chengxi, mentioning that since Wen Xin had a big meal, she shouldnt forget that Mu Chengxi at home hadnt eaten yet.
When Wen Xin arrived home and entered, she saw a man and a cat sitting harmoniously on the sofa. Mu Chengxi was working on official business, and Huahua was fast asleep on the other end of the sofa.
Both the man and the cat looked up when they heard Wen Xin. Mu Chengxi put down his tablet, and Huahua had already jumped off the sofa and ran over to Wen Xin, who was changing her shoes.
Mu Chengxi watched the interaction between Wen Xin and the cat in the entryway, feeling a softness in his heart at the beautiful scene.
After changing her shoes and picking up Huahua, Wen Xin walked over to Mu Chengxi, lowered her head to meet his eyes, leaned forward, and kissed his lips.
It was rare for Wen Xin to take the initiative. Mu Chengxi, who had waited for her all day, naturally wouldnt let a simple kiss suffice. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.
Wen Xin didnt resist, letting Huahua go and embracing Mu Chengxi, both tumbling onto the sofa together.
Mu Chengxi held Wen Xin, breathing heavily, and tenderly kissed her blushing lips. The kiss grew passionate as they both got carried away.
Wen Xin wrapped her arms around Mu Chengxis neck, feeling his heavy breaths against her neck, the warmth almost scorching her.
After about five or six minutes, Mu Chengxi released Wen Xin, who sat on the sofa with a faint smile, her eyes misty with emotion. Wen Xin couldnt deny that she felt moved, just like Mu Chengxi.
Madame Zhuge sent dinner for you. See if you need to warm it up. It tastes pretty good; I think youll like it.
Wen Xin loungedzily on the sofa, one leg propped up on it, her arm resting on her knee, tilting her head to look at Mu Chengxi.
Mu Chengxis emotions seemed to stabilize as well. He closed his eyes and sighed deeply, I feel like I cant wait any longer. Im about to burst with this anticipation.
Hearing Mu Chengxis words, Wen Xins smile brightened. She raised an eyebrow suggestively at him, Maybe we can try a different approach
That suggestion made Mu Chengxi lose all control. He couldnt care less about dinner at that point. He lifted Wen Xin from the sofa and headed straight to the upstairs bedroom.
An hourter, Mu Chengxi leaned against the bathroom doorframe, watching Wen Xin, who stood nonchntly by the sink washing her hands, his gaze filled with tenderness.
Mu Chengxi approached Wen Xin from behind, embracing her and holding her hands in his.
Wen Xin, slightly annoyed, pulled her hands free from Mu Chengxis grasp, her demeanor weary, I advise you not to provoke me, or I might end up hitting you!
Wen Xin appeared calm on the surface but was internally restless. She didnt know why she had agreed to help him in such a manner; it seemed somewhat out of control.
Mu Chengxi didnt let go of Wen Xin, resting his chin on her shoulder and nuzzling her cheek, about to speak when Wen Xin elbowed him harshly.
Um Mu Chengxi didnt expect Wen Xin to strike so hard, and he couldnt help but groan in pain.
Wen Xin grabbed a washcloth, dried her hands, and nonchntly walked out of the bathroom without a backward nce at the man behind her.
Wen Xin, feeling agitated by the lingering scent in the clean bedroom, walked to the window and opened it. The fresh air helped calm her restlessness.
She stood by the window, running her fingers through her hair, then turned and walked out of the bedroom, heading downstairs..

Huahua had already fallen asleep on the sofa by then. Wen Xin noticed Huahuas empty food bowl and went forward to add some cat food.
Hearing the sound of food, Huahua instantly woke up, jumped off the sofa, ran to Wen Xin, meowed a few times, and then wagged its tail and went to eat.
When Mu Chengxi came down from upstairs, Wen Xin was already ying games on the sofa. Mu Chengxi walked up, looked at Wen Xins aggressive gaming technique, and couldnt help but feel a jolt in his heart. He thought Wen Xin was venting her anger towards him through the game, those fierce moves
Mu Chengxi raised his head and just happened to see the items Wen Xin had brought back, ced at the entrance. It seemed he heard Wen Xin had brought food back. He walked to the entrance and saw what Wen Xin had brought, which included a meal and another item that was a pair of ck objects, packed in square bags.
What is this? Mu Chengxi picked up the bag of ck items, looked at it for a few seconds, and asked Wen Xin.
Wen Xin lifted his gaze from the game, nced at the herbal medicine Mu Chengxi was holding, and said, Its medicine for Liang Luoyus brain. I originally wanted to make it into pills, but there wasnt enough time, so I had someone brew it into herbal medicine, twice a day, one bag each time.
Mu Chengxi looked at the herbal medicine in his hand, his eye corner twitching involuntarily. He hadnt expected Wen Xin to actually prepare brain treatment medicine for Liang Luoyu; he always thought Wen Xin was just cursing Liang Luoyu for being brainless.
Mu Chengxi casually ced the herbal medicine aside and spoke indifferently,
Notify him toe and pick it up tomorrow.
Wen Xin ignored Mu Chengxi. Mu Chengxi, holding the dinner Wen Xin had brought back, went into the kitchen. After fiddling around for a while, he came out with a te of ribs and a bowl of rice, setting it on the dining table and specially asking Wen Xin.
Do you want to eat some?
It seemed Wen Xin had finished her game and was replying to someones message, her fingers tapping quickly on her phone.
She briefly replied to Mu Chengxi, No thanks, you go ahead.
The next day, Liang Luoyu received Mu Chengxis message and rushed over. When he saw the big bag of herbal medicine, he really started to question his life.
He looked up at Wen Xin, who was curled up on the sofa reading a book, with aplex look, Wen Xiaoxin, are you serious about this? All this herbal medicine
This is for one course of treatment. If you dont think its effective, I can adjust the prescription for you.
While speaking, Wen Xin put the book aside, took out her phone, opened her payment code, and threw it on the coffee table.
I wont charge you for the consultation fee, but the herbs are quite expensive. You dont have to pay more, just the cost price, 200,000
What? 200,000? Wen Xiaoxin, if you wanted to scam me, you could have just said so. Theres no need to use a bag of ck herbal soup to take my money.
Hearing the price Wen Xin mentioned, Liang Luoyu eximed in shock. He never imagined that a bag of lousy herbal medicine could be worth 200,000. He had been nning to throw it away as soon as he left, but now he suddenly felt reluctant.
Although Liang Luoyu was reluctant, he obediently transferred 200,000 to Wen Xin with his phone, then looked at Mu Chengxi with a grievance on his face.
Mu Chengxi sat on the sofa, one arm supporting his head, watching Wen Xin with a gaze full of affection. His infatuation seemed even greater than the day before.
Liang Luoyu couldnt help but silently curse Mu Chengxi for being such a hopeless romantic,pletely mesmerized by love!
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Liang Luoyu, carrying the herbal medicine, turned around to leave. Just as his hand touched the doorknob, about to gently unlock it, Wen Xins voice lightly sounded.
Take the herbal medicine twice a day, one bag each time. Remember not to take it on an empty stomach and avoid alcohol while on medication!
Holding the herbal medicine in one hand and the doorknob in the other, Liang Luoyu felt a mix of emotions and didnt know what to say.
Uh Thank you, Ill be going now!
Liang Luoyu dared not stay any longer, worried he might pass out from anger and end up spending another 200,000 on treatment, which would definitely not be worth it.
After leaving, Liang Luoyu drove to find Gu Yanze, wanting toin about Mu Chengxis coldness and Wen Xins excessive actions.
Upon arriving at the Gu residence, he saw the Gu family packing up Gu Xiangs belongings. Liang Luoyu was puzzled, Didnt Mu Chengxi let it go? Why are you still sending Gu Xiang away?
Gu Xiang isnt being sent away. Miss Wen helped her get in touch with the Hacker Alliance, sending her to learn professional skills. Its actually a great opportunity Miss Wen provided for Gu Xiang.
When Gu Yanze spoke of Wen Xin, his tone was no longer cold and disdainful but respectful, which took Liang Luoyu a moment to adjust to. What had happened? How had everyone changed their tune? Even Gu Yanze seemed won over by Wen Xin.
Liang Luoyu rubbed his forehead and sat down on the sofa, listening to Mrs. Gus endless praises of Wen Xin, momentarily forgetting he hade to seekfort.
Wen Xin went to Zhuge Jingmings clinic to see a doctor at noon. The clinic was not as busy as it was the day before.
Mu Chengxi got out of the car, opened the door for Wen Xin, and helped her down, chuckling lightly.
Has Zhuge Jingmings clinic gone out of fashion? Why is there no one here?
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow, No, its because Zhuge Jingming took the day off, so not many people came. It seems without Zhuge Jingming, the reputation of the Green Physician Sect is still too small.
Wen Xin could use the dark web and the Mu familys influence to promote Zhuge Jingming, but igniting the Green Physician Sects poprity seemed not as straightforward. They would need to think of a solution.
Green Physician Sect? Isnt that very powerful? Zhuge Jingming once used it to threaten me, telling me to treat you well, or else
Mu Chengxi trailed off, unable to remember exactly how Zhuge Jingming had threatened him. At the time, he didnt take it seriously.
Hearing this for the first time, Wen Xin stopped, turned her head to look at Mu Chengxi, and couldnt help butugh lightly, Zhuge Jingming was showing his determination to fight for me at all costs, even if he has to risk his life!
She suddenly found Zhuge Jingming endearing. Forget the Green Physician Sect; even if it were Di Ting, Wen Xin wasnt sure she had the strength to confront Mu Chengxi. After all, Mu Chengxis reputation was not just for show..

Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Hes worrying about something thats never going to happen. As for the Green Physician Sect, if you want to manage it, I can have Liang Luoyu help you market it Hes really good at that!
Speaking of Liang Luoyu, Wen Xin remembered how he looked when he left their house in the morning. She looked at Mu Chengxi, chuckled, and said, Are you sure Liang Luoyu can handle it? Wont he hold a grudge because of the herbal medicine and ruin Green Physician Sects marketing for me
Its a possibility. Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xins expression, smiled indulgently, and seemed to have thought of something too.
Mu Chengxi and Wen Xins arrival surprised Zhuge Jingming, who had not expected Wen Xin to be so open about her rtionship with Mu Chengxi. Little Uncle-Master, follow me. Ive prepared the treatment room.
Zhuge Jingmings attitude towards Wen Xin was as respectful as ever. Wen Xin had told him many times that he didnt need to be so formal, but Zhuge Jingming insisted, saying that by lineage, he was indeed her junior, and that
couldnt be changed.
Wen Xin and Zhuge Jingming entered the treatment room. Zhuge Jingming looked very nervous. After a morning of research, he was confident in his techniques but wasnt sure if he could meet Wen Xins expectations regarding speed.
Little Uncle-Master, I
Dont be nervous. This time, youll use my gold needles for the acupuncture. I trust your skills. Also, I want to remind you not to say too much to Mu Chengxi. Ive only told him that Im here for treatment for coldness in the womb. He doesnt know anything else.
Wen Xins words made Zhuge Jingming, who was preparing to sterilize the gold needles, pause. He looked at her, Little Uncle-Master, this treatment is very painful. I think its better to let him know so he can offer you morefort
Comfort? I dont need it. What havent I endured? This pain is nothing. Just focus on treating me, and dont worry about anything else. Ill handle it!
Wen Xins voice was calm, showing no emotion, but Zhuge Jingming knew she didnt want him to say more. He bowed his head and continued with the sterilization.
After all the preparations werepleted, Zhuge Jingming began the acupuncture treatment with serious concentration. With each needle, Wen Xins expression grew more pained.
By the time Zhuge Jingming inserted thest needle, Wen Xins forehead was covered in sweat, her face pale. She bit her lip hard, refusing to cry out in pain. Little Uncle-Master, you can remove the needles in twenty minutes.
Zhuge Jingming, being a doctor, knew this acupuncture method was excruciating. He had seen the condition Wen Xin was in when she was brought back to life by his master. The pain then was nothing, less than one-third,pared to this acupuncture method.
Twenty minutester, Wen Xins breathing became weaker. She no longer had the strength to bite her lip, and Zhuge Jingming could hear her faint sighs.
When the time was up, Zhuge Jingming quickly got up, took a pill from a prepared medicine bottle, and ced it in Wen Xins mouth.
After taking the pill, Wen Xins breathing gradually stabilized.
Zhuge Jingming skillfully removed all the gold needles from Wen Xins body. Lying on the treatment bed, Wen Xin let out a long sigh, as if reborn.
Little Uncle-Master, how do you feel? Hearing Wen Xin sigh, Zhuge Jingmings heart, which had been hanging, instantly settled. He knew the acupuncture session was a sess.
Lying on the bed, it took Wen Xin about five minutes to speak, Its too early to see the effects now. Well know in about a month. But one things for sure, your acupuncture skills are quite good!
Wen Xin tried to raise her arm but found she had overestimated herself. She couldnt move at all.
Go call Mu Chengxi in and have him carry me home.
Wen Xin gave Zhuge Jingming a helpless smile, wondering how long they could keep Mu Chengxi in the dark if she needed to be carried home every time. She guessed it wouldnt take many such instances for Mu Chengxi to realize something was amiss.
Zhuge Jingming hesitated for a moment, wanting to persuade Wen Xin to be honest with Mu Chengxi about her condition, but knowing her character, he paused, then turned to call Mu Chengxi in.
When Mu Chengxi entered and saw Wen Xin looking as if she had been fished out of water, he was shocked and quickly went to her side, holding her hand and ring at Zhuge Jingming with a dark expression.
What happened here? Mu Chengxis voice was deliberately lowered, but it was filled with anger.
Seeing Mu Chengxi almost exploding with rage, Zhuge Jingming instinctively stepped back. Before he could speak, Mu Chengxi grabbed him by the cor and lifted him up.
Master Mu, my Little Uncle-Master is fine. She just has a severe case of coldness in her body. The acupuncture was to expel the coldness, which is why she looks like this
Zhuge Jingming looked at Mu Chengxi fearfully, his voice trembling. He had anticipated Mu Chengxis anger but had not expected him to be violent.
Coldness?
Yes, the Little Uncle-Master has a significant amount of coldness in her body, so she feels cold in her hands and feet during her menstrual period. She prescribed the medicine herself and taught me the acupuncture technique. I was just assisting her with the acupuncture!
Zhuge Jingming spoke cautiously, genuinely afraid that an agitated Mu Chengxi might throw his round body out. He wasnt young anymore and couldnt withstand Mu Chengxis fury.
After hearing Zhuge Jingmings exnation, Mu Chengxis brows furrowed deeply. He had thought Wen Xins symptoms were normal and hadnt realized it was an illness.
Mu Chengxi let go of Zhuge Jingming, took off his coat, and wrapped Wen Xin in it.
Seeing that Mu Chengxi had released him, Zhuge Jingming quickly put the sterilized gold needles into Wen Xins cloth bag, organized the bag, and respectfully handed it to Mu Chengxi.
Mu Chengxi slung Wen Xins backpack over his shoulder and carried her out of Zhuge Jingmings treatment room.
As Mu Chengxi reached the door of the treatment room, he surveyed the environment and asked coldly, Can this treatment be done at home?
Of course, the next time, I n to go to the Little Uncle-Masters house for the treatment. Its a bit too much troublesome to have here to my clinic..

Zhuge Jingming immediately understood Mu Chengxis intentions when he asked if the treatment could be done at home. He took the initiative to speak up.
That would be best. After saying this, Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin out of the clinic.
Reaching the car, the driver quickly jumped down to open the door for Mu Chengxi, who then got in with Wen Xin. The driver, not daring to look at Mu Chengxis expression, drove towards Lanzhis direction.
After Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin left, Zhuge Jingming copsed into a chair, exhausted from the acupuncture session. He now fully understood why his grandmaster had always been supported by his master during Wen Xins treatment. Performing acupuncture was indeed physically draining.
The next time he administered acupuncture to Wen Xin, he resolved to be in better physical condition to withstand the demands of the treatment. He took this treatment very seriously.
Master, Old Master Ling hase. He said he wanted the youngdy who visited the clinic yesterday to treat him. He felt a connection with her and would like you to introduce her.
Yang Lin entered and respectfully informed Zhuge Jingming, also subtly reminding him of Old Master Lings status.
Go back and tell Old Master Ling that the youngdy who came yesterday was here for business, not to seek medical advice, nor to take up a permanent position here. Therefore, we cannot offer any treatment to Old Master Ling. I hope he understands.
Facing the Ling family, one of the top families in the capital, and especially with Old Master Ling himselfing over, Zhuge Jingming should have greeted him personally. However, his physical condition wouldnt allow it. He nned to visitter with a gift of medicine as thanks.
Yang Lin wasnt aware of the rtionship between Wen Xin and Zhuge
Jingming, but he could tell that Zhuge Jingmings response was a polite refusal.
Master, the youngdys medical skills are impressive. Is she from our Green
Physician Sect? Why havent we seen her before? Is she your close disciple?
If she was Zhuge Jingmings close disciple, it would make sense that they hadnt met her, and her impressive medical skills would be understandable.
Having recovered a bit, Zhuge Jingming looked at Yang Lin and chuckled lightly. Her? I wouldnt dare im such a connection. Just remember, she is someone our Green Physician Sect must respect. As for the rest, youll find out her identity in time. Now, go and ry my message to Old Master Ling as I told you.
Seeing Zhuge Jingmings respect for Wen Xin, Yang Lin didnt press further and respectfully left the treatment room.
Yang Lin, following Zhuge Jingmings instructions, respectfully conveyed the message to Old Master Ling, who responded with a polite smile.
Well, a gentleman appreciates the virtue of others. Since Master Zhuge is reluctant to disclose the youngdys identity, please let him know that if he can persuade her to treat me, my Ling family is willing to grant him a favor.
Old Master Ling, stroking his beard and smilingfortably, believed his offer was too good to refuse.
After Old Master Ling left, Yang Lin ryed his words to Zhuge Jingming, who sank into thought. He was curious how Old Master Ling had recognized Wen Xins medical skills and specifically requested her treatment, which was quite unusual.
After pondering for a while, Zhuge Jingming realized the gravity of the situation, especially involving Old Master Ling of the Ling family, a figure not easily provoked bymoners like him.
He picked up his phone and called Mu Chengxi. The phone nearly disconnected before Mu Chengxi answered in a cold tone that could chill anyone.
Whats the matter?
There is. Old Master Ling just came by, wanting the Little Uncle-Master to treat him. Im not sure how he knew of her medical prowess, but Im concerned it might trouble her, so Im hoping you can help resolve this.
Knowing the close rtionship between the Ling and Mu families, Zhuge Jingming believed Mu Chengxi could easily handle this.
Old Master Lings offer was too significant to be greedy for, so he preferred not to get involved with the Ling familys matters.
I understand. Ill take care of it. If anyone from the Ling familyes to your clinic again, let me know. Ill deal with it.
Mu Chengxi, holding Wen Xin in his arms, hung up the phone and looked down to meet her bright eyes. He smiled gently at her.
Have you fully awake? Do you feel ufortable anywhere?
No Wen Xin shook her head while resting in Mu Chengxis embrace. I just feel a bit weak. You dont have to worry. Treating this condition isnt something that can be done in a day or two. I didnt treat it before because it was too time-consuming. Now that I have some time this month, Ill properly undergo treatment. Maybe Ill start to get better.
Seeing Wen Xins pale face, Mu Chengxi tenderly kissed the top of her head. Seeing you like that scared me to death. You should have told me beforehand.
Wen Xin sat up in Mu Chengxis arms, leaningzily against him, her head on his shoulder. I didnt expect it to be so intense, but it does seem to be effective.
Wen Xin lifted her hand to grasp Mu Chengxis. He felt the warmth in her palm and looked at her in surprise. Is this the result of the treatment?
It should be. I thought it would take several sessions to feel anything, but after the first treatment, my palms are already warm. It seems it will be effective soon.
Mu Chengxi held Wen Xins hand tightly, still concerned about her current weakness. Ive told Zhuge Jingming that the next treatment will be at our house. You might catch a cold like this Ill arrange for the driver to pick him up.
Thats good. I just heard you mention the Ling family to Zhuge Jingming.
Whats going on with them?
Zhuge Jingming said Old Master Ling wants you to treat him. I havent heard about the old man having any health issues. Ill call Ling Yichen. Dont worry; it wont cause any trouble for Zhuge Jingming.
Mu Chengxi gently enveloped Wen Xin in his embrace, one hand softly squeezing hers, allowing her to rest against him. Sleep a bit more. When we get home, Ill carry you upstairs.
Okay, Ill sleep a bit more. Wen Xin felt exhausted, wondering if being with Mu Chengxi had made herzy.
The car stopped in the underground parking lot of Lanzhi. Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin upstairs, and she didnt wake up even as he changed her into pajamas.
Seeing Wen Xinsplexion return to a healthy glow, Mu Chengxis anxious heart finally rxed. He covered her with a nket and went into the study..

Mu Chengxi sat down in front of his desk, opened hisputer, and entered a series of codes. Soon, theputer screen disyed the image of a man.
This man had a rough and resolute face. He looked like someone who was not to be trifled with. He was burly and sat in front of theputer screen with a perverse expression on his face. It looked very out of ce with his figure and face.
Master Xi, you thought of me this noon. The situation overseas has been smoothly handled. In about two days, it should be mostly resolved, and we can return to Continent F.
Mu Nan had been stationed by Mu Chengxi at the border to deal with some overseas issues. Recently, with the Manny familys troubles, the overseas forces had been restless, necessitating his attention to many matters.
Are you near Pochinkis border? Theres an auction tonight in Pochinki. There will be a lot up for auction that I need. Arrange for someone to acquire the Warm Jade for me.
Pochinkis auction? Warm Jade? Alright, Master Xi, I understand. I will secure the Warm Jade.
Mu Nan was utterly obedient to Mu Chengxi, never questioning his orders, even if it meant turning into an assassin on Mu Chengxismand.
Late at night, the streets in the center of Pochinki were very chaotic. There were homeless people everywhere on the roadside, and robberies were frequent. It was an extremely insecure city.
However, for the wealthy, it was a paradise, a ce of decadent luxury.
Chu Yunxuan and Yan Qing were sitting on the roof of the Ding She Building. Yan Qings brows were tightly knitted together when he saw another robbery happening on the street not far away.
You came to Pochinki early in the morning. What are you doing here?
Just a few days ago, Yan Qing had returned from an exhrating mission, only to be dragged to thisplex city by Chu Yunxuan the moment he returned to Di Ting headquarters.
He nced at the local timeit was midnightand was utterly clueless about Chu Yunxuans intentions.
Im here for the auction. I heard that a piece of Warm Jade, which might be useful for Wen Xin, will be auctioned off in Pochinki. I want to purchase it and give it to her.
Chu Yunxuan was well aware of Wen Xins condition. Every winter, Wen Xins days would be very difficult to bear.
After releasing news in Pochinkis auction circles, she inquired about the Warm Jades benefits. Although unsure if it was as miraculous as rumored, as long as it could help Wen Xin, she was determined to acquire it.
Hearing that Chu Yunxuan was here to buy Warm Jade for Wen Xin, Yan Qing, a devoted fan of Wen Xin, was instantly energized, his fatigue vanishing.
If its for Wen Xin, we must win it at all costs. But on another note, how old is Wen Xin exactly? Thest time I heard her real voice, I thought I had dialed the wrong number.
Yan Qing picked up a wine ss from the table, elegantly swirling and sipping the wine, then cing it back down, his gaze burning with curiosity towards Chu Yunxuan.
Wen Xin is probably as youve guessed. Shes exceptionally beautiful. Ill take you to Country Z sometime to satisfy your curiosity.
Chu Yunxuan replied nomittally to Yan Qing, nced at the time, stood up, and patted his shoulder, Its about time. Lets head to the auction.
Chu Yunxuan dressed inconspicuously that day, in all ck, with her hair in a bun, looking neat and efficient.
Her attire was meant to blend into the darkness, aware that any item appearing in Pochinkis auction could attract certain individuals attention. She wouldnt allow any mistakes on her part.
When Yan Qing and Chu Yunxuan arrived at the auction, their ordinary appearances drew no attention. Chu Yunxuan picked up a bidding number and found a seat at random.
Yan Qing, as Chu Yunxuan sat down, gently tugged at her clothes and whispered, Isnt there a private box here? Bidding like this could easily attract
the attention ofpetitors.
In Continent M, Di Ting also operated an auction house, which highly valued the privacy of its clients. People of a certain status and position often chose to bid from private boxes.
However, in such a mixed and basic auction environment, it was hard to secure an item without drawing attention.
Chu Yunxuan, sitting down with the demeanor of a big boss, coldly nced at Yan Qing, disdainfully regarding him as if he were inexperienced.
This ce is just like this. The items auctioned here would never appear in a regr auction house. Youll see.
At first, Yan Qing couldnt grasp what Chu Yunxuan meant. After the auction began and he saw one item after another, he nearly lost control. This ce was a hell, with not a single normal item.
Chu Yunxuan, how do you know about this ce?
Yan Qing looked at her in surprise. As the head of Di Tings intelligencework, he hadnt known about this ce and couldnt fathom how Chu Yunxuan did.
Seeing Yan Qings astonished look, Chu Yunxuan made a shushing gesture, signaling him not to look so ignorant and shocked.
At that moment, the auction houses hostess brought out a red box containing a red jade stone. The host introduced it as the final item of the day, the Warm
Jade.
Finally, a normal item at this auction.
Yan Qing looked at Chu Yunxuan and breathed a sigh of relief. He couldnt im his hands were clean, but they werent so bloodstained as to deal in various organs. This was an eye-opener for him.
Looking at the auction stage, Chu Yunxuans lips curved slightly, winking at Yan Qing.
This legendary Warm Jade isparable to that ancient jade from before. Why do you think its the final item? Be careful; it might not be something bloody, but it can easily stir up a bloody storm.
As Chu Yunxuan finished speaking, various bids filled the auction hall. The price of the Warm Jade shot up from several hundred thousand to ny million.
Ny million for a piece of jade
Yan Qing felt that stepping out with Chu Yunxuan today had broadened his horizons. Perhaps he had been with Di Ting for too long, feeling disconnected from the world. Coming here hadpletely refreshed his understanding.
Ny million And this is just the beginning. If we can get this jade for under a billion, well be lucky today..

One billion? Yan Qing counted on his fingers, wondering how many orders he would need to take to earn one billion
Chu Yunxuan nced at Yan Qing, who seemed out of his depth, counting on his fingers and shaking her head in regret for bringing him along. She should have brought Drens instead, who, having seen more of the world and money, wouldnt be so easily astonished.
Finally, unable to bear it, Chu Yunxuan patted Yan Qing on the shoulder and chuckled, One billion is nothing to my boss. My bosss empire is stronger than you can imagine.
Yan Qing paused his counting and slowly looked up at Chu Yunxuan, realizing he might control Di Tings intelligence but didnt truly understand Wen Xin.
500 million
Just then, a tall man sitting in a corner suddenly raised his bidding paddle. This was the first time he had spoken since appearing in the auction.
Chu Yunxuan craned her neck to see, her eyes narrowing slightly at the sight of the rugged, handsome man. A strongpetitor had emerged.
The Warm Jades price was suddenly raised to 500 million, causing dissatisfaction among many, but they understood that in this ce, the wealthy had the final say.
600 million 700 million
800 million
With Mu Nans words, the warm jade that was still in the tens of thousands instantly became in the hundreds of millions. However, there were still many people who did not give up.
One billion
As the number ofpetitors dwindled, Chu Yunxuan spoke up for the first time, directly bidding one billion. People in the front row turned to look in her direction, surprised to hear a womans voice in the auction house.
Two billion
Mu Nan nced at Chu Yunxuan and Yan Qing sitting in the corner, his expression darkening. He had been aware of them since their arrival.
The man beside the woman seemed inexperienced in such settings, while the woman herself carried an alluring presence, clearly not simple. Now that she had spoken, he understood their goal.
2.5 billion
If it was in the past, Mu Nan would definitely not raise the price again. A gentleman had the beauty of helping others, not to mention a real beauty. But this was something his boss, Master Xi, wanted at any cost
When Chu Yunxuan heard Mu Nans bid of 2.5 billion, she pondered for a moment. 2.5 billion might be her limit. Borrowing money to buy a piece of jade might make her boss think shes lost her senses. After all, she had only spent 2 billion on the ancient jade
Yan Qing, seeing Chu Yunxuans hesitant expression, thought she was contemting auction strategies. He was quite skilled at auctioning. Taking the paddle from Chu Yunxuan, Yan Qing raised it high, 2.51 billion
Chu Yunxuan looked at Yan Qings action with an indescribable expression, wondering who had given him the courage to bid
2.6 billion Mu Nan hesitated too. Although his boss was wealthy, it wasnt wise to waste money unnecessarily. Saving a bit for his boss was the least he could do.
Yan Qing nced at Chu Yunxuan, about to bid again, but she stopped him. She held his wrist and whispered softly.
Thats enough, we cant bid anymore. That man is determined to have it. . If we raise the price again, Im afraid well suffer his revenge.
Chu Yunxuan wasnt afraid of retaliation; given Wen Xins current empire, not anyone could step on them.
But she didnt want to cause unnecessary trouble. Those people were bold for a reason, with formidable forces behind them.
Yan Qing looked toward Mu Nan, agreeing that Chu Yunxuan had a point. In such a chaotic ce, it wasnt worth stirring up trouble.
2.6 billion going once 2.6 billion going twice 2.6 billion thrice Deal!
Seeing no one else bidding, the auctioneer sped up the process. This was the first time the auction house had auctioned off such a price. He did not know what the use of this small stone was, so he could not help but take a second look.
Mu Nan acknowledged Chu Yunxuan with a nod, expressing his friendliness.
Chu Yunxuans sudden withdrawal was unexpected to him, but her timely cessation saved him considerable trouble. Otherwise, he would have had to arrange for someone to intervene, which could have been awkward if it resulted in harm to her.
Leaving the auction without the desired item, Chu Yunxuan and Yan Qing were not in high spirits. She pondered whether to take action and seize it by force, thinking a bold attempt might just work.
Yan Qing, sensing Chu Yunxuans intention, whispered, You came here too hastily, bringing only me. They have at least eight bodyguards
Chu Yunxuan turned her head to look at Yan Qing and sighed softly. She felt that Yan Qings reminder was right. Once again, she regretted not bringing Drens over. If it was Drens, she wouldnt have to worry about this at all.
Mu Nan felt several forces tracking him as he retrieved the Warm Jade. Clutching the box, he coldly smirked, anticipating those foolish enough to confront him.
Mu Nan and his men deliberately led their trackers into a dark, unfinished building. Those hiding emerged, threateningly demanding the item in his possession.
Take out what you have in your hand, or dont me us for being rude
Rude? Lets see who will be the rude ones!
Mu Nan didnt consider these would-be assants a threat, his gaze cold and fierce. He pulled out a re gun from his waist, raised it above his head, and fired.
The moment the re was shot, the sound of airne engines roared overhead. Four helicopters approached, and over a dozen professionally trained operatives in ck rapidly descended before the onlookers could react.
Chu Yunxuan and Yan Qing, on their way back to the hotel, exchanged nces upon hearing the helicopters above.
F*ck, what kind of strength is this? Having absolute flying rights in Pochinki, isnt that a little too much? Chu Yunxuan looked at the scene in the sky and couldnt help but sigh. Facing such a big shot, she couldnt help but be envious.
Yan Qing raised his head to look at the helicopters in the sky. He had some understanding of air rights, andbining that with the models of those helicopters, he had roughly guessed the identities of those people..

Those people should be the subordinates of Continent Fs overlord. Have you heard of Continent Fs overlord?
The overlord of Continent F? Isnt Continent F Mu Chengxis territory? Howe theres another overlord now?
Hearing Yan Qings words, Chu Yunxuan was somewhat confused. She wasnt particrly clear on intelligence matters, but she had specifically looked into Mu Chengxi of Continent F because of Wen Xins rtionship with him. She wanted to check Mu Chengxis identity.
The power structure in Continent F is especiallyplex, with thergest force being Mu Chengxi. However, Mu Chengxis domain is only in the western part of Continent F, upying one-third of the territory
The remaining two-thirds are under the jurisdiction of Continent Fs overlord, with all the scattered forces under his control.
Di Ting had spent about half a year to rify the distribution of powers in Continent F, where Mu Chengxis influence is already terrifying.
Although the overlord of Continent F doesnt control Mu Chengxi, to Mu
Chengxi, the overlord is also someone he wouldnt dare to confront lightly.
Thats why Continent F has been so peaceful and developed so rapidly over the years.
After listening to Yan Qings exnation, Chu Yunxuan felt even more fortunate she hadnt acted against that rugged man. She was also very curious about the consequences for those who did.
We better not get involved in this matter. Di Ting itself is an entity they are very cautious of. If the two of us were caught, even if the boss intervened, we might not escape unscathed.
Yan Qing understood theyout and power dynamics of Continent F well. They had indeed been too arrogant recently, especially after rejecting several of their business offers, leading to more people investigating them. Its better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Chu Yunxuan looked at Yan Qing. Although she didnt want to cause trouble, she wasnt afraid of it. She blinked her beautiful eyes at Yan Qing, If we add our forces in Continent M to Mu Chengxis, do you think we stand a chance against the overlord of Continent F?
Add Mu Chengxi? Yan Qing was incredulous at Chu Yunxuans suggestion. Mu Chengxi is from Continent F; why would he help them? Was Chu Yunxuan dreaming?
Why would Mu Chengxi possibly help us? Weve rejected several of his orders. They hold grudges. If they caught us, getting off without a beating would already be lucky, let alone helping us. How could that be possible?
Youll find outter. Lets head back to the hotel for now. The matters of Continent F arent our concern. Lets go. Chu Yunxuan patted Yan Qings shoulder mysteriously, her expression unreadable but smug, as she headed towards the hotel.
Yan Qing stood watching Chu Yunxuans retreating figure, feeling that ever since she returned from Wen Xins side, she was full of secrets, always so mysterious, making his already restless heart even more eager to meet Wen Xin.
The next morning, after dealing with the matters of the Geng family in Ice City, Mu Bei hurried back to the capital. He picked up an item at the capitals airport and headed straight to Lanzhi.
In the elevator, Mu Bei ran into that female neighbor again.
The neighbor was somewhat surprised to see Mu Bei; she thought he had sold the apartment to Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi and wouldnt appear in thisplex again.
Hi, I thought I wouldnt see you again! The neighbor initiated a conversation with Mu Bei. She had missed the opportunity to ask for his contact informationst time and didnt want to miss it again.
Mu Bei was pressing the button for the floor when he heard a woman take the initiative to hit on him. His hand on the elevator button hesitated for a moment before he turned his head to look at the woman. Are you talking to
Yeah,st time I saw you busy buying furniture for your house, and a few dayster, someone else was living there. I thought I wouldnt see you again!
The womans tone was full of regret, her gaze eagerly fixed on Mu Bei, making no attempt to hide her admiration.
Mu Bei wasnt new to such situations, instinctively stepping back. The woman was too enthusiastic, making him somewhat afraid.
Sorry, that wasnt actually my ce. I was just purchasing furniture for my boss. Dont overthink it; Im just a worker, not worth your enthusiasm.
As Mu Bei finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. He quickly dodged past the woman and ran out, heading straight for Mu Chengxis apartment.
When the woman saw Mu Beis flustered look, she was not in a hurry to chase after him. She crossed her arms around her chest and looked in Mu Beis direction meaningfully. She liked this man.
Standing at the door of Mu Chengxis home, Mu Bei forcefully patted his chest. This woman was indeed a bit frightening. No wonder Master Xi didnt like being pursued.
At that moment, the door was opened from the inside, and Liang Luoyu stood in front of it, looking at Mu Beis startled face. Are you being chased for debts?
Why that expression?
No, its nothing. Young Master Liang, howe youre here at Master Xis so early?
Mu Bei was surprised to see Liang Luoyu. He nced at the time; it was just after eight oclock. ording to Miss Wens habits, this should be just the time to wake up.
I just came to deliver breakfast. Mu Dong is not at home.
Hearing that Mu Dong was not at home, Mu Beis eyes lit up, forgetting the incident just now. He immediately pushed past Liang Luoyu, changed into slippers, and walked into the living room.
At this time, Wen Xin was having breakfast with Mu Chengxi. Liang Luoyu was initially nning to leave, but seeing Mu Bei excitedly entering the living room, he became curious. So, he closed the door and followed him in. Master Xi, since Mu Dong is not here, do I still need to go back to Ice City?
Not seeing Chengxi in the living room, Mu Bei headed to the dining room.
Indeed, in the dining room, Mu Chengxi was taking care of Wen Xins meal.
Hearing Mu Beis voice, Mu Chengxi looked up at Mu Bei, disregarding what
Mu Bei said, just giving him a faint look. Did you bring back the thing I asked
I brought it back. Mu Bei remembered the real reason for his visit, quickly took out a delicate red cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Mu Chengxi.
Mu Chengxi put down his chopsticks, took the red cloth bag from Mu Bei, and gently opened it. Seeing the jade emitting a red glow inside, he paused slightly.
Wen Xin noticed his action and also put down her chopsticks, looking towards Mu Chengxi.
Whats that?
Its the Warm Jade I bought for you, hoping it will be useful for your health. Mu Chengxi ced the Warm Jade in front of Wen Xin, who squinted slightly at the jade..

What is this Where did you get it from? Wen Xin looked at the jade stone Mu Chengxi ced in front of her without reaching out to touch it. She had seen this item in ancient books and was naturally aware of its value.
It was brought back from an auction in Pochinki. Zhuge Jingming mentioned your cold constitution, so I thought this item would be useful for you.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xins expression, not wanting to miss her reaction to the Warm Jade he had brought back for her.
Seeing Mu Chengxis anxious expression, Wen Xin raised an eyebrow, picked up the box containing the Warm Jade from the table, examined it for a while, then took the Warm Jade out of the box and ced it in her palm. The warm temperature of the Warm Jade instantly spread throughout Wen Xins body, making herfortably squint her eyes.
Seeing Wen Xins expression, Mu Chengxis nervousness made him think Wen Xin might not ept it.
Wen Xin put the Warm Jade back into the box and raised an eyebrow at Mu Chengxi, Thank you, but I want to try the effects of the acupuncture I developed myself first. If my acupuncture doesnt work after a month, Ill carry the Warm Jade with me.
Seeing Wen Xins satisfied expression, Mu Chengxi picked up a piece of youtiao with chopsticks and ced it on Wen Xins te, responding gently, Okay.
Mu Bei and Liang Luoyu watched the affectionate interaction between Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, not wanting to say anything on the side.
The two exchanged nces, then walked into the living room,y down on the sofa, and began to ck off. This was not something for them, as singles, to watch.
In the afternoon, Mu Chengxis brother, Mu Chengxu, appeared at Mu Chengxis home, followed by several assistants carrying severalrge boxes, one of whom was holding a huge makeup bag.
Mu Chengxi looked at Mu Chengxu, who hade uninvited, with a faint coldness and impatience in his deep, dark eyes.
What are you doing here? Mu Chengxi satzily on the sofa in a simple set of home clothes, looking as if he hadnt fully woken up.
I came to deliver a gown for Wen Xin. I guess, based on your character, you wouldnt let Wen Xin simply wear any gown to a banquet, considering how beautiful she is. You dont need to think about it; I know what youre worried
about. Youre afraid someone will take Wen Xin from you.
Mu Chengxu didnt change her mind because of Mu Chengxis gaze. She walked into the kitchen unabashedly, poured herself a ss of warm water, drank it all in one go, and then sat down in front of Mu Chengxi.
Quick, quick, quick, take a look at which gown suits Wen Xin. I called the Huoluo family in advance to prepare a few gowns that fit Wen Xins size. Otherwise, it might be toote.
Saying this, Mu Chengxi had her assistants take out the prepared gowns. Each gown was stunning, captivating everyones gaze.
Mu Chengxi, looking at these gowns, seemed to have already pictured Wen Xin wearing them. He slightly squinted his eyes and coldly said, Too old-fashioned. My girl is only neen years old. These clothes dont suit her.
You keep them!
Mu Chengxi had anticipated the impact these dresses would have on Wen Xin. How could he let his treasure be gawked at by a crowd?
Mu Chengxis refusal took Mu Chengxu by surprise. She looked at Mu Chengxi, hesitated for a moment, then spoke discontentedly, I didnte here to seek your opinion. Wheres Wen Xin? I want to ask her which dress shed like to wear.
Saying this, Mu Chengxu was about to proceed upstairs, but before she could take a step, she heard Mu Chengxizily speak from the sofa, The year is almost over. Are you not nning on wanting next years funds?
Mu Chengxis words sessfully made Mu Chengxu halt in her tracks. If not for Mu Chengxis reminder, Mu Chengxu almost forgot that Mu Chengxi was not only her brother but also her financial backer, her God of Fortune
Mu Chengxu turned around. Teeth clenched in anger, she approached Mu Chengxi, Ive worked hard to prepare these dresses, and you just say no? Are you being too unreasonable?
Mu Chengxu thought she could use moral coercion to change Mu Chengxis mind, but she soon realized she was mistaken. Mu Chengxi was impervious to persuasion, unwilling to listen to any argument.
Eventually, Mu Chengxupromised. She waved at her assistants, You guys wait downstairs with the dresses. Ill be out in a moment.
The assistants and the makeup artist left Mu Chengxis apartment. As the makeup artist left, she couldnt help but give Mu Chengxi a few more nces before leisurely exiting the apartment.
Mu Chengxu sat down opposite Mu Chengxi, looking at him, then curiously nced in the upstairs direction.
Whats Wen Xin busy with upstairs? She should be able to hear me speaking, right? Why isnt sheing downstairs? Mu Chengxu was puzzled. Even if Wen Xin was busy upstairs, she must surely hear her speaking downstairs.
Shes not home; she went out. Mu Chengxi looked down at the tablet in his hands, not looking up, merely responding to Mu Chengxus question in a calm tone, showing no sign of agitation from her anger.
What do you mean, Mu Chengxi? Wen Xin is not home, and you didnt stop me from painstakingly selecting dresses. Are you ying me for a fool?
Hearing Mu Chengxus furious roar, Mu Chengxi slowly looked up, his face filled with confusion, not understanding what he had done wrong.
What did I do wrong? Since you entered, youve been busy. You didnt give me a chance to speak, nor did you ask if Wen Xin was home. Now, you turn around and me me. Dont you think Im being wronged?
With a faint smile on his lips, Mu Chengxi looked at Mu Chengxus furious demeanor, finding it amusing. Unable to argue with Mu Chengxi, Mu Chengxu angrily stood up, left his house without looking back, and mmed the door behind her.
At that moment, Wen Xin and Wen Huai were sitting in a caf. Wen Xinzily propped her chin on the back of her hand, absentmindedly stirring her milk tea.
Wen Huai, noticing the protruding bones on Wen Xins wrist, looked up at her.
Have you lost weight these past few days?
Probably not. Ive been eating and drinking well every day, and Im not allowed to stay upte. I shouldnt be losing weight! Wen Xin followed Wen Huais gaze to her wrist.
You see; if you had just gone out with her, it would have been fine. Why did you have to call me out too? Now youve made her angry.
Wen Xin looked at Wen Zhimo, who was selecting clothes at a nearby counter, and sighed helplessly..

It was her who asked me to call you out. She also said that now that youre back in the capital, you should return to the Wen family. She wants to take you to Mr. Ous birthday banquet tonight.
Ill go to Mr. Ous birthday banquet on my own, but not as a member of the Wen family. You dont need to worry about this matter. Also, tell her that I wont return to the Wen family. Let her and those people not have too many expectations.
Hearing Wen Xin mention those people, Wen Huais gaze also darkened. He was clear in his heart that until Wen Xin had not thoroughly investigated the matter, everyone could potentially be the ones who harmed his parents.
Actually, aunts rtionship with them isnt very good either. Aunt insisted oning to the capital to take care of me and to marry Uncle Ma. Those people had already stripped her of her identity, and aunt has not returned there for a
long time.
Wen Huais words made Wen Xins originally casual gaze be serious. Wen Xin had never paid much attention to Wen Zhimos matters, so she was unaware of the fallout between Wen Zhimo and those people.
Wen Xin fell silent, having always thought it was Wen Zhimospromise that protected Wen Huai from being disturbed by those people. It seems she thought too much.
Sister, actually, Grandpa really hopes youll return. Grandpa knows youve been investigating the matter. He said if you return, investigating the incident from within would save a lot of trouble.
Wen Huai knew that Wen Xin had a good rtionship with the Tang family. To some extent, Wen Xin would listen to his grandpas advice. He also thought it was a good suggestion. If Wen Xin would go, taking control there would be much easier than her current situation.
Do you think I cane out unscathed from that ce that devours people without spitting out their bones? Dont forget theres also an Alfredo there.
What about Mu Chengxi if I go back?
Mentioning Mu Chengxi softened Wen Xins gaze significantly. He had ced her at the pinnacle of his heart; how could she possibly leave him?
What I want is the truth, not a perfunctory shortcut. Ive made so much preparation over the yearsnot to end up with apromise.
Wen Xin suddenly sat up straight, her bright eyes seriously looking at Wen Huai, You just need to take care of living well. Leave the matters of that ce and those messy people to me.
Wen Xin suddenly became very domineering and unbridled, giving off an aura of fearlessness.
Seeing Wen Xin like this, Wen Huai feltplex emotions. He didnt want to be the little brother always protected by his sister. He wanted to be strong, to shield Wen Xin from the wind and rain one day, so she wouldnt have to work so hard.
Alright, I have other things to do, so Ill go first. Dont worry about that ce.
As for Grandpa, I know he means well, but I wont return there.
Wen Xin picked up her jacket beside her, patted Wen Huai on the shoulder, and walked out of the caf nonchntly.
After Wen Xin left, Wen Zhimo came out from the brand counter and sat down opposite Wen Huai, her gaze eagerly fixed on him.
How did it go? Talking with her? I heard she will participate in independent enrollment. Didnt she consider returning, taking training, and taking over the inheritance rights?
Wen Huai, seeing Wen Zhimos excited demeanor, shook his head, Sister said she wouldnt return there, and she doesnt seem to believe that Grandpa wants her to go back. Aunt, I have to say, even Grandpa cant change her mind. If she wanted to return, she wouldnt have fought her way out of there even if it meant death.
Watching Wen Xins departing figure, Wen Huai sighed softly. If it werent for his aunts earnest pleadingst night, he definitely wouldnt have said such things to Wen Xin. Actually, he also didnt want Wen Xin to return there. That ce was no better for Wen Xin than Country Z.
You all, ah, your sister is about to turn neen soon. In that ce, one can get engaged at neen. Nowadays, Alfredos power is growing stronger, and Im worried he might make a move on Wen Xin. But if Wen Xin takes the initiative to return and ept the inheritance, then Alfredo wont be able to force her.
In Wen Zhimos eyes, Wen Xin was just a country girl who grew up in the countryside with nothing but a pretty face. She thought that when Alfredo made his move, Wen Xin would be unable to withstand it.
Wen Huai looked at Wen Zhimos worried face and said nothing. He didnt reveal anything about Wen Xin, feeling it was better for Wen Zhimo to know as little as possible about Wen Xins matters.
Just as Wen Xin was about to get in her car and drive away, the crisp sound of high heels approached from not too far away.
Wen Xin
Hearing the voice, Wen Xin did not rush to turn around but waited for the woman behind her toe in front of her.
Looking at Wei Shisheng dressed in clothes from the Huoluo family, Wen Xin slightly squinted her eyes. She had forgotten to remind the Huoluo family not to do business with Wei Shisheng anymore.
Wei Shisheng stopped in front of Wen Xin, about to say something, then saw the ne around Wen Xins neck. Her eyes widened instantly, envious of seeing the limited-edition ne worn by Wen Xin.
Wen Xin, dont think that just because youre with Mu Chengxi, youve won. I can clearly tell you that today I will let you see what a real great family is like.
Listening to Wei Shishengs words and seeing her arrogant demeanor, Wen Xin sneered, What? Cant get Mu Chengxi, so youre nning to get engaged to Ou Shenzhi? If thats the case, then I really have to congratte you in advance.
Wen Xin felt nauseous looking at Wei Shisheng, especially after knowing she practiced some dubious hypnotism techniques. Wen Xin found her even more disgusting, like a rat from the gutter, only doing things that couldnt be seen in the light.
Wen Xin opened the car door, pushed Wei Shisheng aside, and sat in the drivers seat. She started the car, stepped on the elerator, and drove away.
Wei Shisheng watched Wen Xin arrogantly drive away. Biting her lip, she watched the direction Wen Xin left with hatred. Today, at tonights banquet, she must crush Wen Xin underfoot, ensuring Wen Xin never has a chance to turn the tables again.
Leaving the parking lot, Wei Shisheng entered a seven-star hotel and directly went to the presidential suite on the 27th floor after revealing her identity.
Two men in ck stood outside the suite. Wei Shisheng approached them and stated her identity and purpose.
Im here to see my cousin. I wonder if my cousin is avable now..
Chapter 373 - 373: Accidentally Encountering Wen Xin and Master Xi…
Chapter 373 - 373: identally Encountering Wen Xin and Master Xi
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Just a week ago, someone came to the Wei family, saying he was entrusted by someone to find the youngdy of the Payten family. From that day on, she learned of her true identity; it turns out she is the cousin of the Independent States acting chairman.
With her identity alone, even a hundred Wen Xins would not be her match.
Even if the Mu family is formidable, it is merely a small family in the face of Independent State. She refused to believe that with Old Madam Mus shrewdness, she wouldnt know what kind of identity could bring the Mu family a real opportunity. Wen Xin was nothing.
She had long been determined to win over Mu Chengxi, and with her new identity, her confidence returned.
Sorry, Mr. Alfredo is currently speaking with Mr. Joyce. Miss Wei can wait in the lounge area.
After knowing Wei Shishengs identity, the man in ck treated her with great respect. However, since Mr. Alfredo was inside discussing business, he dared not disturb him.
How is the investigation going? Still no news of her?
Alfredos deep blue gaze fixed on the bald man standing before him. It had been a week since his arrival in the capital. While the less important individuals were found, there was still no news of the one important person he sought. We are certain she is in the capital, but her whereabouts arepletely untraceable.
The bald man lowered his head, not daring to meet his masters eyes. They had been searching the capital for a week, not only failing to find the Eldest Misss whereabouts but also unable to track down the Little Master. This made them realize the situation was tricky.
Never mind, with her abilities, if she doesnt want to be found, nobody can do anything about it. Theres still over a months time. I hope she will return to
Independent State as agreed.
Alfredo massaged his somewhat aching temples. This week had exhausted all his patience, yet he still ended up with nothing. He truly couldnt find out where she was.
Mr. Alfredo, are you attending the Ou familys banquet today? Miss Tang invited you to attend tonights banquet
The Ou family? You mean Ou Shenzhi??
Alfredos impression of Wei Shisheng was not very good. If not for his second uncles death leaving no heirs, he wouldnt have followed his second uncles will to bring that illegitimate daughter back home.
Especially after meeting that illegitimate daughter, he felt an inherent aversion to that vanity-loving sister. He thought even if he brought her back to Independent State, it would only be trouble.
The Ou family is earnestly trying to connect with Independent State. Ou Shenzhi also has some development in Independent State. He invited you to the banquet through Miss Tangs rtionship. Today is Old Mr. Ous birthday.
The bald man looked into Alfredos unfathomable blue eyes, unsure of his masters thoughts, and dared not say much, only briefly introducing todays banquet.
Since its a birthday banquet, we might as well join the fun. After all,ing to the capital without interacting with those major families might make them forget they live in our shadow!
A confident smile appeared on Alfredos face. He had heard from Wei Shisheng that Mu Chengxi, the crown prince of the capital, would definitely attend todays birthday banquet.
He wanted to see for himself what this legendary Mu Chengxi was like and whether he was worthy of being his opponent.
Wen Xin returned to the apartment where Mu Chengxi was still sitting on the sofa dealing with emails on his tablet. Wen Xin changed her shoes, casually took off her coat, hung it in the closet at the entrance, and walked over to Mu Chengxi, wrapping her arms around his neck, snuggling into his embrace.
Why are you always so busy?
Mu Chengxi tossed the tablet onto the table, wrapped his arms around Wen Xin, and then had her sit on hisp.
You werent home, so I busied myself with some of my own things. Did you go out to meet Wen Huai today?
Ah. Wen Xin did not expect Mu Chengxi to ask who she had met today. She was suddenly a little confused and did not know how to respond.
If you dont want to talk about it, its okay.
Mu Chengxi always indulged Wen Xin to no end. He never pressed her on topics she didnt want to discuss; his question was just casual.
Its not that I dont want to tell you. You just caught me off guard with that question. Yes, Wen Huai did call me out, but he came with Ma Wenyuans wife. Did I tell you that Ma Wenyuans wife is my aunt?
Wen Xin was momentarily unsure how to exin her family situation. She had skillfully avoided some details when talking about her parents with Mu
Chengxi. Now, bringing up Wen Zhimo would surely lead to many other issues.
This was the first time Mu Chengxi heard Wen Xin mention her aunt. He raised an eyebrow at Wen Xin, waiting for her to continue.
Master Xi, is it almost time? Are you and Xiaoxin ready? We
Unbeknownst to them, Liang Luoyu had entered his fingerprint into the lock, allowing himself in without knocking. He opened the door himself and pushed it open.
From Liang Luoyus supervisory perspective, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxis actions seemed quite intimate, and with a little imagination, one could guess what the two were doing.
Liang Luoyu stood frozen for three seconds before quickly retreating, overwhelmed by a sense of guilt.
Following behind, Mu Bei saw Liang Luoyu hurriedly backing out, puzzled, Young Master Liang, whats wrong?
Liang Luoyu quickly shut the door, covered Mu Beis mouth, and made a shushing gesture. He whispered into Mu Beis ear with a look of utter despair. He looked as if he had nothing to live for as he spoke in a low voice.
I just went in without knocking, and Master Xi and Wen Xin were Ahem I think Im about to die!
Mu Bei was startled by Liang Luoyus words. He widened his eyes at Liang Luoyu, pulled his hand away from his mouth, and looked at Liang Luoyu in shock.
You then youre probably dead At this moment, Mu Bei did not dare to speak at all. He mouthed tomunicate with Liang Luoyu. His brain was working quickly. How could he give Liang Luoyu a chance to survive?
Wen Xin, sitting on Mu Chengxisp and seeing the door shut firmly, looked at Mu Chengxi, puzzled.
Whats wrong with him? What happened to scare him like that? Wen Xin couldnt understand why Liang Luoyu looked so frightened. Was there something wrong with them?
Seeing Wen Xins innocent expression, Mu Chengxi softlyughed and gently squeezed her waist..

Ling Xuer slowly moved to Wen Xins side, gently tugging on her sleeve, Sister Xin, I just saw Wen Huai at the venue. He seemed so cold and a bit scary.
Hes just pretending; hes actually easy to get along with. Youll understand his personality better as you get to know him. Lets head to the banquet hall first.
Wen Xin noticed everyone was heading towards the main hall. She stood up, holding Ling Xuers hand, and left without giving Mu Chengxi a chance to hold her hand.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin and Ling Xuer leave, a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Noticing the change in Mu Chengxis expression, Ling Yichen stood up and extended his hand, raising an eyebrow.
Just lending your little girlfriend to my niece for a while is fine. My niece has been nagging me about your brother-inw, asking when she can be sent to Ice City First High School. My heads about to explode from her constant chatter.
Hearing Ling Yichen mention brother-inw, Mu Chengxis dissatisfaction faded significantly. He brushed off Yichens extended hand, stood up, and straightened his clothes.
If she wants to go, just send her. Its all settled now. No need to keep her in a honey jar all the time. She needs to learn to grow up. After saying this, Mu
Chengxi walked towards the venue to find Wen Xin.
Wen Xin, pulled along by Ling Xuer, entered the banquet hall and immediately saw Wen Huai, Wen Zhimo, and Ma Wenyuan standing not far away.
At the same time, Wen Zhimo also saw Wen Xin. She was somewhat surprised; why would Wen Xin appear here?
Wen Zhimo looked at Wen Xins simple attirea white shirt paired with slim-fit jeans, highlighting her long, straight legs.
Wen Zhimo said something to Ma Wenyuan. Then, annoyed, she shook off Ma Wenyuans arm and headed straight toward Wen Xin without looking back.
As Ling Xuer was pulling Wen Xin to find Wen Huai, Wen Zhimo suddenly grabbed Wen Xins arm in an overbearing manner, attempting to drag her away without saying a word.
She tugged at Wen Xin, but she did not budge at all. She looked up at Wen Xin in disbelief.
Dont make a scene here, or youll be the one embarrassed! Wen Zhimo tried to keep her voice low to avoid attracting attention.
Wen Xin turned to Wen Zhimo, raising an eyebrow, Aunt, since Im here at this banquet, it means Im not here to cause trouble. You dont need to do this.
Not need to do this? Look at what youre wearing. I offered to buy you a dress, and I wanted to bring you to the banquet, but you refused and came here secretly. Have you thought about how people wouldugh at you if they knew you came from the countryside?
Wen Zhimos voice unintentionally rose, drawing curious looks from the surrounding people.
A country girl attending a banquet? How ridiculous. But she is quite beautiful.
Such a beautiful and innocent girl must be pretending, right? She must be here to find a wealthy husband, looking for a sugar daddy.
Is she a university student? How can someone be so disgusting?
Kick her out; let the security throw her out. Dont let a country bumpkin lower the standard of this banquet.
The crowd around Wen Xin, Wen Zhimo, and Ling Xuer started to murmur and gossip.
Especially the women present felt an inexplicable pressure seeing Wen Xins beauty, worrying that their admired men might be captivated by her delicate appearance.
Many didnt know Wen Xins identity, so hearing Wen Zhimos words, they immediatelybeled Wen Xin as a country girl here to fish for men under the guise of being an innocent college student.
Hey, do you have no manners? How can you talk about Sister Xin like that?
She is a guest invited by Mr. Ou. Please show some respect!
When they ndered Wen Xin, Ling Xuer, standing by her side, was the first to express dissatisfaction, directly rebutting those womensments.
Some people recognized Ling Xuer standing next to Wen Xin. The capitals social circle is small, and many were aware of Ling Xuers past incident.
Seeing Ling Xuer defending Wen Xin and holding her hand tightly, their first reaction was quite vile.
Oh, so this country girl isnt here to fish for a rich husband. She has a special hobby, like the little princess of the Ling family. No wonder
The person speaking wasnt the group of women who had been looking down on Wen Xin but a well-dressed man, exuding the aura of a young master from an aristocratic family.
Wen Xins bright eyes suddenly darkened, a cold glint shing within as she approached the man. Before the crowd could see how she moved, Wen Xin was already in front of the man, her gaze fixed firmly on him.
What did you just say? Dare to repeat it? Believe it or not, Ill cut off your tongue and feed it to the dogs? Wen Xins voice was icy, each word she uttered sharp as if shooting ice needles straight into the mans heart.
The man was momentarily overwhelmed by Wen Xins imposing aura but quickly regained hisposure, realizing his status did not allow him to show weakness to a country bumpkin.
What, cant handle the truth? Who doesnt know what the Ling familys princess did to the Wei familys eldest miss back then? That young girl Ah
Before the man could finish his sentence, there was a snapping sound his jaw was dislocated, rendering him unable to move his mouth or control his drooling.
Disbelieving, the man looked at Wen Xin, shocked that a country bumpkin could possess such audacity and skill to inflict such harm on him.
If you cant speak humanely, then dont speak at all. Do you realize the impact your careless words can have on a young girl? Your malice could be her greatest wound!
Wen Xin ignored how the surrounding people were looking at her. She grabbed a wet wipe from a servers tray with mboyant movements, tore open the packaging, wiped her fingers, and nonchntly threw it in a trash can on the floor.
The man, whose jaw Wen Xin had dislocated, held his jaw and hurriedly fled the banquet hall.
Country bumpkin, do you realize who you justid hands on? That was the young master of the Song family. By attacking him, youre finished
A woman behind Wen Xin deliberately reminded her, highlighting Wen Xinsck of restraint. Having just arrived at the banquet, she dislocated the jaw of the Song familys young master. Although they were impressed by Wen Xins skill, they also worried for her, having offended someone not easily provoked..

Wen Xin noticed Ling Xuers reserved demeanor, lifted her hand, and gently pinched Ling Xuers cheek, her lips curving into a light smile that carried a hint of mischief and unrestraint.
Im going to greet Old Mr. Ou first, and then Ille back to chat with you. Okay, go ahead, Sister Xin! Ling Xuer nodded obediently to Wen Xin.
Turning around, Wen Xin took the gift she had prepared in advance from Mu Beis hands and nced at the man by her side, Lets go and deliver the gift first.
Wen Xin received a call from Old Mr. Ou as soon as she left her house, asking her when she would arrive. His eager tone made Wen Xin want tough, surprised that someone was so looking forward to seeing her.
Holding the gift in one hand, Wen Xin, apanied by Mu Chengxi, headed towards the banquet halls back lounge.
Upon entering the lounge, Wen Xin saw Old Mr. Ou holding a baby, with a woman sitting beside him, and beside the woman sat a man who looked tenderly and dotingly at the woman and child.
Old Master, Young Master Mu, and Miss Wen have arrived The butler, seeing Old Mr. Ou enjoying his time with his grandson, softly informed Old Mr. Ou.
Hearing the butlers words, Old Mr. Ou looked up at Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, hurriedly handed the baby doll back to its mother, and warmly greeted Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi.
Little Wen Xin, youve made me wait for a long time! I thought vou and Chengxi woulde to my house for lunch. But when I called Chengxi, he said you didnt want toe. Youre probably the only one who dares to refuse me, right?
Wen Xin looked at the spirited Old Mr. Ou. Her cool demeanor was unchanged, but it was clear she was in a good mood.
Why would I go to your family dinner? While speaking, Wen Xin stuffed the gift into Old Mr. Ous hands, Take a look, see if you like it.
Old Mr. Ou, looking at the gift Wen Xin ced in his hands, guessed what it was, This treasure, Ill wait until after the banquet to open it at home. Your gifts are always treasures!
Seeing Old Mr. Ou behaving like a yful old man, Wen Xin smiled faintly, her gaze falling on the woman holding the child standing behind Old Mr. Ou, and she nodded lightly.
Noticing Wen Xins gesture, Old Mr. Ou looked at her, surprised, How do you two know each other?
Of course, we know each other. Grandpa, shes the one who saved YouYous life. I didnt expect you to know her too. The woman looked at Wen Xin excitedly, amazed by the smallness of the world that allowed for such unexpected encounters.
Hearing the womans words, Old Mr. Ou was also surprised. He looked from
YouYous mother to Wen Xin, The miraculous doctor you met at Zhuge
Jingmings clinic is her? So theres such fate!
Chengxi, it was Wen Xin who saved our YouYou. My silly daughter-inw talked about it for so long without rifying Wen Xins identity. I was nning to ask about that miraculous doctors identity at Zhuge Jingmings after my birthday banquet, and it turns out to be Wen Xin.
Mu Chengxi nodded slightly to the man standing beside the woman, then smiled faintly at Old Mr. Ou, Wen Xin hasnt mentioned this to me, so I had no idea.
Its probably because Miss Wen doesnt know us. Let me introduce myself. Im
Ou Jinzhi, this is my wife, Song Lin, and this is my youngest son, Ou YouYou.
Nice to meet you, Wen Xin
Wen Xin found Ou Jinzhi, who was polite, sunnier, andcked the gloomy aura, quite likablepared to Ou Shenzhi. She had a good first impression of him.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mu Chengxi led Wen Xin out of Old Mr. Ous lounge. Along the corridor, Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi and asked in a tone neither cold nor warm, You dont seem very familiar with that man?
Mu Chengxi, puzzled by her question, nodded and did not hide their rtionship from Wen Xin, exining it word for word.
He is the grandson of Old Mr. Ous eldest son. His father has a special status, and he did not grow up in the capital. Also, his rtionship with Ou Shenzhi is not good. We grew up ying with Ou Shenzhi, so its normal for him to not like us and have a bad rtionship.
I see, Wen Xin said, understanding their rtionship better and not pressing further. She let Mu Chengxi lead her by the hand towards another hall of the banquet.
Entering the hall, they found all of Mu Chengxis friends, who stood up to greet them upon their arrival.
Master Xi, Miss Wen
Mu Chengxi responded briefly and sat down next to Ling Yichen, ncing at Liang Luoyu.
After the incident at Lanzhi, Liang Luoyu kept his head down, not daring to meet Mu Chengxis eyes. Mu Chengxi did not exin anything and turned his attention back to Ling Yichen.
Is your grandfather not well?
Confused by Mu Chengxis question, Ling Yichen looked puzzled, shook his head, then nodded as he remembered something.
Its not that hes unwell, but hes been consulting at Zhuge Jingmings clinic recently for an abnormal pulse. But sinceing back from the clinic, hes been acting unusually, asking me to find a girl around eighteen or neen whos exceptionally skilled in acupuncture, but we havent found her yet.
You dont need to look further; the person your grandfather wants you to find, I know her. Tell your grandfather that threatening Zhuge Jingming is useless.
That girl treats patients based on her mood, and you wont be able to find her.
Ling Yichen, puzzled by Mu Chengxis cryptic words, squinted at him, sensing Mu Chengxi was hiding something, but he knew this wasnt the ce to talk.
Alright, Ill tell my grandfather when I get back. He didnte today; he just stays home studying medical books. I dont know when he became so fascinated by them.
Ling Yichen mentioned his familys entric elder with a helplessugh. Despite years of bickering with Old Master Ou, his grandfather chose not to attend Old Mr. Ous eightieth birthday banquet, ignoring all persuasions from the family.
Gentlemen, the banquet is about to begin. Please, move to the main banquet hall
The Ou familys butler spoke politely to the young masters, his demeanor even more respectful when he saw Mu Chengxi and Ling Yichen..

Ling Xuer slowly moved to Wen Xins side, gently tugging on her sleeve, Sister Xin, I just saw Wen Huai at the venue. He seemed so cold and a bit scary.
Hes just pretending; hes actually easy to get along with. Youll understand his personality better as you get to know him. Lets head to the banquet hall first.
Wen Xin noticed everyone was heading towards the main hall. She stood up, holding Ling Xuers hand, and left without giving Mu Chengxi a chance to hold her hand.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin and Ling Xuer leave, a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Noticing the change in Mu Chengxis expression, Ling Yichen stood up and extended his hand, raising an eyebrow.
Just lending your little girlfriend to my niece for a while is fine. My niece has been nagging me about your brother-inw, asking when she can be sent to Ice City First High School. My heads about to explode from her constant chatter.
Hearing Ling Yichen mention brother-inw, Mu Chengxis dissatisfaction faded significantly. He brushed off Yichens extended hand, stood up, and straightened his clothes.
If she wants to go, just send her. Its all settled now. No need to keep her in a honey jar all the time. She needs to learn to grow up. After saying this, Mu
Chengxi walked towards the venue to find Wen Xin.
Wen Xin, pulled along by Ling Xuer, entered the banquet hall and immediately saw Wen Huai, Wen Zhimo, and Ma Wenyuan standing not far away.
At the same time, Wen Zhimo also saw Wen Xin. She was somewhat surprised; why would Wen Xin appear here?
Wen Zhimo looked at Wen Xins simple attirea white shirt paired with slim-fit jeans, highlighting her long, straight legs.
Wen Zhimo said something to Ma Wenyuan. Then, annoyed, she shook off Ma Wenyuans arm and headed straight toward Wen Xin without looking back.
As Ling Xuer was pulling Wen Xin to find Wen Huai, Wen Zhimo suddenly grabbed Wen Xins arm in an overbearing manner, attempting to drag her away without saying a word.
She tugged at Wen Xin, but she did not budge at all. She looked up at Wen Xin in disbelief.
Dont make a scene here, or youll be the one embarrassed! Wen Zhimo tried to keep her voice low to avoid attracting attention.
Wen Xin turned to Wen Zhimo, raising an eyebrow, Aunt, since Im here at this banquet, it means Im not here to cause trouble. You dont need to do this.
Not need to do this? Look at what youre wearing. I offered to buy you a dress, and I wanted to bring you to the banquet, but you refused and came here secretly. Have you thought about how people wouldugh at you if they knew you came from the countryside?
Wen Zhimos voice unintentionally rose, drawing curious looks from the surrounding people.
A country girl attending a banquet? How ridiculous. But she is quite beautiful.
Such a beautiful and innocent girl must be pretending, right? She must be here to find a wealthy husband, looking for a sugar daddy.
Is she a university student? How can someone be so disgusting?
Kick her out; let the security throw her out. Dont let a country bumpkin lower the standard of this banquet.
The crowd around Wen Xin, Wen Zhimo, and Ling Xuer started to murmur and gossip.
Especially the women present felt an inexplicable pressure seeing Wen Xins beauty, worrying that their admired men might be captivated by her delicate appearance.
Many didnt know Wen Xins identity, so hearing Wen Zhimos words, they immediatelybeled Wen Xin as a country girl here to fish for men under the guise of being an innocent college student.

Wen Xins bright eyes suddenly darkened, a cold glint shing within as she approached the man. Before the crowd could see how she moved, Wen Xin was already in front of the man, her gaze fixed firmly on him.
What did you just say? Dare to repeat it? Believe it or not, Ill cut off your tongue and feed it to the dogs? Wen Xins voice was icy, each word she uttered sharp as if shooting ice needles straight into the mans heart.
The man was momentarily overwhelmed by Wen Xins imposing aura but quickly regained hisposure, realizing his status did not allow him to show weakness to a country bumpkin.
What, cant handle the truth? Who doesnt know what the Ling familys princess did to the Wei familys eldest miss back then? That young girl Ah
Before the man could finish his sentence, there was a snapping sound his jaw was dislocated, rendering him unable to move his mouth or control his drooling.

Hearing the womans words behind her, Wen Xins facial expression remained unchanged, but a mocking smile appeared on her lips.
So, status is that important in your eyes? Then do you know who you just ndered? She is the Ling familys young princess, yet you describe her with such disgusting thoughts. Doesnt that deserve punishment?
Wen Xins disdainful smile made the surrounding people pause, reconsidering their actions. Here, let me rify on behalf of Ling Xuer: she is healthy in both body and mind. As for what you heard about her in the past, Ling Xuer was framed. If youre interested in the details, pay attention to the statement the Ling family will release tomorrow!
Wen Xin didnt want to waste words on these big-breasted and brainless women. She walked over to Ling Xuer, took her hand, and prepared to leave.
Countryside bumpkin, dont you think your argument isughable? The Ling family hasnt denied these allegations, and the Wei familys eldest miss, the victim of the incident, underwent psychological therapy for a while. Do you think a few words from you can clear her name?
Despite some fearing Ling Xuers status, their disdain for Wen Xin came from deep within; they wouldnt allow Wen Xin to intimidate them.
Clear her name? Do you think thats necessary? Im simply seeking justice for someone who was falsely used. Would you like to bring Wei Shisheng here for a confrontation?
Wen Xins icy gaze and fearless demeanor made the crowd hesitant, beginning to doubt if there was more to the story.
Country bumpkin, you Naturally, the woman couldnt summon Wei Shisheng; the Wei familys miss is of a status not to be summoned lightly, especially over past grievances.
Enough, stop making a scene. This is embarrassing. Lets go, dont cause any more trouble!
Wen Zhimo hadnt expected Wen Xin to physically confront someone at the banquet and now just wanted to take her away before the Song family came looking for her and caused even more trouble.
Ling Xuer, holding Wen Xins hand tightly, was moved by Wen Xins protective stance. She wanted to defend Wen Xin, to say something.
But at that moment, she couldnt utter a word.
She thought she was mentally prepared to face the incident, but it hung over her like a dark cloud, difficult to ovee.
Wen Xin nced at Wen Zhimo, walked over to Ling Xuer, and gently patted her head, Youre already very brave, having ovee your psychological shadow. Justice may bete, but it has arrived. Lets go.
As Wen Xin and Ling Xuer turned to leave, the women behind them thought Wen Xin was retreating. One of them sneered.
Country bumpkin, are you leaving? Not staying to fish for a wealthy husband? Wealthy husband? Remember what you said, and dont regret itter!
Ling Xuer, unable to bear Wen Xin being mocked, let her innate pride burst forth.
She didnt need Wen Xin to shield her; her status alone was enough to suppress those around her.
Releasing Wen Xins hand, Ling Xuer turned to face the woman who had spoken, mimicking Wen Xins expression, raising an eyebrow and smirking disdainfully.
You keep saying country bumpkin as if Ive given you too much face. If you dont want to continue at the banquet, I can arrange for security to escort you out. And, daring to insinuate shes after a wealthy husband, are you not afraid that the wealthy husband you mock could easily ruin your family?
After speaking, Ling Xuer winked at the woman, her gaze full of warning.
Miss Ling I We didnt say anything wrong. It was Mrs. Ma who said she was a country girl. If shes from the countryside, what is she if not a bumpkin? And her seductive appearance
The womans voice trailed off as her eyes widened in disbelief at the scene unfolding before her.
Not just her, but everyone around was staring, their eyes wide with shock.
What did they see?
The Crown Prince of the capital had appeared.
Not only had he appeared among the crowd, but he also stood by Wen Xins side, his long arm naturally wrapping around her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace.
What are you all doing here? Grandma just arrived, and I escorted her to the lounge. Whats happening here thats causing such amotion?
Mu Chengxi looked down at Wen Xin with tender eyes, his affection almost spilling out.
This scene shattered everyones perceptions. The Crown Prince, known for his distance from women, was now disying such warmth, a revtion more shocking than the sky falling.
Ah! Caught off guard by Mu Chengxis question, Wen Xin wasnt sure how to respond. She smiled lightly, her bright eyes sweeping over the crowd.
They called me a bumpkin and
Thinking of something, a mischievous grin spread across Wen Xins face.
And what? Mu Chengxi, captivated by the rare yful expression on Wen Xins beautiful face, would have kissed her if not for the crowd.
And they said you were a turtle Wen Xin couldnt help butugh.
As Wen Xin spoke, Mu Chengxis demeanor turned cold, his tender gaze reced by a dangerous chill.
Bumpkin? Turtle?
With each word Mu Chengxi uttered, the hearts of those around him sank. They wanted to exin, but they had no ground to stand on; they were the ones who insulted Wen Xin and called Mu Chengxi a wealthy husband
Master Xi, we It was Mrs. Ma who first said thisdy came from the countryside and told her not to embarrass herself here. W-We may have been wrong, but we were misled!
Another woman tried to defend their actions, believing they had been misled by Wen Zhimos words; it wasnt entirely their fault.
Mu Bei, check the surveince. Whoever offended my fiance, no need for exnations, just crush them!
Hearing the words crush them, those who had troubled Wen Xin turned pale, not anticipating that they had offended Mu Chengxi..
Master Xi, we realize our mistake
Mistake? Where is the mistake? Is it in bullying my fiance or in calling me a turtle? No need to exin to me. Go have a good talk with your family head!
Mu Chengxi gave no further chance for them to speak, his gaze coldly sweeping past Wen Zhimo standing nearby.
He was aware of the rtionship between Wen Zhimo and Wen Xin, and given this connection, there was little he could do.
The term fianceing from Mu Chengxis mouth stunned everyone present. They could see Mu Chengxis affection for Wen Xin, but the status of a fiance was not something just anyone could im..

Wei Shisheng and Ou Shenzhi had just arrived when they heard Mu Chengxi announcing to everyone in the venue that Wen Xin was his fiance. Wei Shishengs legs suddenly went weak, and if Ou Shenzhi hadnt grabbed her arm, she might have fallen to the ground.
At that moment, the only thing echoing in Wei Shishengs mind was Mu Chengxis official deration of Wen Xins status as his fiance
Ou Shenzhi looked at Wei Shisheng with a pained expression, noticing her pale face. He took her arm and led her away from the scene, worried that she might act impulsively and disrupt the banquet.
Once in the lounge, Wei Shisheng sat on a chair, muttering to herself with her head down, Why? Why would he choose a worthless country girl over me? We grew up together Ive liked him for so many years, and he wont even spare me a second nce. Why?
Shisheng, calm down. You still have me. I can, and I am willing to protect you for a lifetime! Shenzhi couldnt stand to see Shisheng so upset. He reached out to grip her shoulders, holding her tightly to prevent her from bing too emotional and harming herself.
Hearing Ou Shenzhis words, Wei Shisheng looked up at him, her eyes brimming with tears, appearing vulnerable and pitiful.
You? Do you like me? If you do, can you make Mu Chengxi like me? Can you make Wen Xin disappear from this world? Just let me be with Mu Chengxi, and I can help you. Ill help you establish a partnership with Independence State. I promise that the Ou family can sessfully enter Independence State
As Wei Shisheng mentioned Independence State, her eyes suddenly lit up. She took a tissue from the side to wipe the tears from her eyes, Independence State, right If I can, Ill try Then Grandma Mu will recognize me
Wei Shisheng, snap out of it! Do you think Mu Chengxi would dare to publicly dere Wen Xin as his fiance if Madame Mu wasnt aware? The Mu family must have already epted Wen Xins status. You have no chance!
Ou Shenzhi looked helplessly at Wei Shisheng, who was so delusional. The matter was already settled, and he didnt understand why Wei Shisheng couldnt let go of Mu Chengxi, where he fell shortpared to him.
Wei Shisheng, look at me. I like you. If youre willing to marry me, I can
I dont want to. I only want Mu Chengxi. Ever since I was young, Ive had only one thought C to marry Mu Chengxi. Ive never considered having any connection with you
Wei Shisheng looked down at the abject figure of Ou Shenzhi kneeling before her. She had always been aware of Ou Shenzhis feelings for her. She allowed him to get close solely to use him and never considered a future with him.
The cold rejection left Ou Shenzhi frozen in ce. He thought he had finally seen a change of heart in Wei Shisheng, but in the end, it was only his wishful thinking.
Ou Shenzhi slowly stood up, looking down at Wei Shisheng seated in the chair, This is thest time Ill ask you. Have you really decided? Do I truly stand no chance?
Ou Shenzhi, lets stop here. To go on would be impolite, Wei Shisheng replied, not daring to meet Ou Shenzhis eyes. Seeing the way he treated her, she saw a pitiful reflection of her own unrequited love.
Alright then, may you get what you wish for, and your desires be fulfilled! Wei Shisheng wouldnt even grant Ou Shenzhi a nce, and with disappointment, he left the lounge after a while.
Themotion in the venue had subsided. Wen Zhimo, looking bewildered, was led aside by Ma Wenyuan.
The group of women who had called Wen Xin a country bumpkin had been escorted out by Mu Bei.
The venue quickly became much quieter, with people asionally ncing over at Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin.
Wen Zhimo had recovered from her shock. She tugged at Ma Wenyuans sleeve, knowing that he had always been in touch with Wen Xin. Seeing how he had stepped in to help her just now, she guessed he must have known about Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi for a while.
You and Wen Huai knew about Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi being together, right?
Ma Wenyuan sighed lightly and nodded, thinking that his wife was quite a troublemaker. If not for Mu Chengxis giving face to Wen Xin, they might have been thrown out too.
Being asked to leave such a gathering in the capital would mean social ruin, or, at the very least, a significant fall from grace. Even if he could survive, he would definitely not be as good as before.
Wen Xin is currently studying at Ice City No.l Middle School, and Mu Chengxi has been apanying her in Ice City. I only found out about their rtionship after Wen Xin started school. Its only just now that Ive heard about the fiance status.
Ma Wenyuan had previously kept it from Wen Zhimo, not wanting her to go to Ice City and disturb Wen Xin. Now that he could no longer hide it, he told her the truth.
Theyve been together for so long? It seems Wen Xin is serious, then. What about the marriage alliance with Independence State
Before Wen Zhimo could finish, a group of people walked into the banquet hall, led by a lean man in a ck suit.
The man had the features of an Asian face but strikingly clear blue eyes. His sharp, angr face highlighted his exquisite features, exuding a natural regal aura.
At a nce, the only person in the entire venue who could match Mu Chengxis presence was him.
Hearing the noise at the entrance, Wen Xin, who had been casually chatting with Mu Chengxi, looked up.
As she recognized the man who had walked in, a cold light shed in her eyes as she locked gazes with Alfredo.
Surprise flickered in Alfredos eyes; he had not expected to find the person he had been searching for here.
Mu Chengxi, noticing the change in Wen Xins expression, followed her gaze. With one hand in his pocket and the other around Wen Xins waist, his dark, deep eyes sharpened as he looked at Alfredo.
Few in the venue knew Alfredo, but they all understood that anyone who appeared at this event must hold a significant status.
At that moment, they were all guessing the identity of the man who had unexpectedly shown up at the event.
Cousin A cheerful female voice came from another direction in the venue. Wei Shisheng, dressed in an elegant haute couture gown, walked over swiftly and affectionatelytched onto Alfredos arm..

Watching Wei Shishengs actions, those present grew even more curious about Alfredos identity, initially suspecting he was from the Wei family, yet it was clear this man was not one of them.
Cousin, let me take you to meet Old Mr. Ou; he has been waiting for you for a long time.
Wei Shisheng led Alfredo away from the banquet hall. Mu Chengxi did not watch them leave but instead lowered his head to look at the little woman in his arms.
He was certain that Wen Xins body stiffened when that man appeared, and from the look in her eyes, it was clear she was very repulsed by him.
Do you know him?
Yes, I know him. Hes the Independent States chairman, Alfredo.
Wen Xin didnt want to hide his identity. Based on Mu Chengxis identity and status, he should not be a stranger to him.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin as if he wanted to say more, but she stopped him, pressing her finger to his lips and sighing softly.
Lets talk about his and Independent States matterster when we get back. Its a bitplicated.
Wen Xin looked up at Mu Chengxi, her eyes slightly reddened, and Mu Chengxi knew she was struggling to control her emotions.
Mu Chengxi raised his hand to embrace Wen Xin, his chin resting on her forehead, and softly responded, Okay
The unique light mint scent from Mu Chengxi helped stabilize Wen Xins emotions. She gripped the sides of his clothing tightly, resting her head against his chest, and took a deep breath.
Alfredo and Wei Shisheng left the venue, and as they went upstairs, Alfredo discreetly withdrew his arm, his deep blue eyes shing a dangerous light.
Didnt I tell you before? I dont want others to know about our rtionship..
Hearing Alfredos words, Wei Shisheng paused her steps, turning to face him with confusion in her deep blue eyes.
Cousin, if I am a member of the Payten family in Independent State, why cant our rtionship be disclosed? Finding me, dont you want to acknowledge me?
Standing on the staircase, Wei Shisheng looked up at Alfredo, unable to understand why he sought her out yet kept their distance.
Hearing Wei Shishengs question, Alfredo bent down to her level, his lips curling slightly in a cold and distant tone.
Your father is a Payten, but you are not. Youre merely his illegitimate daughter, not listed in the Payten family tree. If your father wants to see you, he must leave Independent State. You dont have the right to enter the
Independent State.
Previously, Alfredo hadnt anticipated Wei Shishengs greed, so he hadnt exined the rules of Independent State after revealing her identity, possibly leading her to misunderstand that she was the eldest daughter of the Payten family.
Why didnt you say so earlier? Wei Shisheng looked at Alfredo, angry and embarrassed. Upon learning of her identity, she had envisioned a bright future for herself, but now, the man before her had dered it all a dream, an uneptable reality. How could she ept this?
I dont care. Even if I have no right to enter Independent State, today I hope you can y along in a show with me aspensation for the Payten familys years of neglect.
Wei Shishengs gaze was resolute, seeing this as her only chance. If she couldnt seize this moment to change Madame Mus opinion, her chances with Mu Chengxi would likely vanish forever.
Seeing how anxious Wei Shisheng was, Alfredo suddenly became interested in what she wanted to do. He raised an eyebrow. Sure, only today.
After speaking, Alfredo turned and headed upstairs. He hade to attend the birthday celebration, not to waste time with Wei Shisheng here. He had other matters to attend to, such as taking Wen Xin away.
Mu Chengxi, with Wen Xin, sat down on a sofa in the rest area. Ling Yichen, apanied by Ling Xuer, took a seat opposite them, while Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei sat down on another sofa. Everyone seemed lost in thought.
Why would he suddenlye to the capital? And whats his rtionship with Wei Shisheng? Chengxi, have you heard anything? Ling Yichen, unable to contain his curiosity any longer, asked.
I dont know about him, but I know a bit about Wei Shishengs identity. My grandfather brought Wei Shisheng home years ago, and she had a foreign surname, Payten.
Payten? Isnt that Alfredos family? Your grandfather brought Wei Shisheng back from the Independent State?
Ling Yichens voice carried a tone of surprise. He had never thought that Wei Shisheng would have such an identity. If that was the case, Wei Shishengs position in the capital was already established.
The connection between the Wei family and Independent State was not a secret in the capital. Although the Wei familys influence in the capital was not as strong as the Mu familys, they were the only family with connections to
Independent State, a partnership even the Mu family had never established.
It could also be said that the Mu family had always refused to cooperate with the Independent State.
Mu Chengxi mentioned, It was only today, when I saw Wei Shisheng calling Alfredo cousin, that I connected their rtionship. I hadnt thought much about it before.
Mu Chengxis gaze remained on Wen Xin, concerned about her state. Since Alfredos appearance, Wen Xins aura had be visibly more hostile. Now silent, it was unclear what she was thinking.
At that moment, Ou Zhengfeng entered the banquet hall with dignity, assisted by Ou Jinzhi. Apanying them were Old Madam Mu, Old Master Wei, and several elders from notable families.
Among them, Alfredo, who had just left the venue, reappeared.
The presence of Alfredo among these distinguished individuals led everyone to immediately conclude that his status was significant, to be seated alongside such esteemedpany.
As the birthday host, Ou Zhengfeng took the stage to offer some polite remarks before announcing the start of the banquet.
As the banquet began, the first order of business for all attendees was to present their birthday gifts and offer sincere wishes.
Midway through the banquet, Wei Shisheng, pulling Alfredo along, approached Mu Chengxis table to greet him.
Chengxi, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, the chairman of
Independent State, Alfredo. I invited him to Old Mr. Ous banquet.
After Wei Shishengs introduction, there was no immediate reaction from anyone at the table. Just as she was feeling awkward and at a loss, Liang Luoyu couldnt help but burst outughing.
Miss Wei oh, we should probably address you as Miss Payten now, right? Whats your rtion to the Ou family? What gives you the right to invite Mr.
Alfredo to Old Mr.. Ous banquet?

After Liang Luoyu said that, Wei Shishengs expression became even uglier than before. She hadnt expected these people to be so bold in front of Alfredo.
You Liang Luoyu, dont go too far. I brought my cousin here to introduce him to you as a courtesy. You should appreciate it.
Sorry, we dont need it!
Liang Luoyu nced at Alfredo indifferently. The grievances between them werent the kind that could be resolved with a simple greeting, so there was no need at all.
Seeing Liang Luoyu causing trouble again, Wei Shisheng simply stopped looking at him. Her gaze fell on Mu Chengxi.
Chengxi
Wei Shisheng looked at Mu Chengxi with a pitiful expression, hoping he would at least show her some respect.
At that moment, Mu Chengxi was wrapping his arms around Wen Xins slim waist, resting on her shoulder while watching her y a game. He didnt react to her words at all.
Alfredo watched Mu Chengxis ring actions, his hand in his pocket clenched into a fist, barely suppressing the urge to pull Mu Chengxi away from Wen Xin.
About five minutester, Wen Xin finished her game. She handed her phone to Mu Chengxi, sat up straight, grabbed the steak knife from the table, and suddenly pointed it at Alfredo, who was still standing there.
Arent you leaving? Or do you need me to make you?
Wen Xins fierceness was no longer hidden, her eyes bloodshot and looking quite frightening.
Everyone present had never seen Wen Xin like this, and even Mu Chengxi hadnt expected her to lose control suddenly.
Wen Xin, do you know who youre talking to? Its one thing to bully me, but theres no need to take your anger out on my cousin. After all, I knew Chengxi first. Ive been recognized by the Mu family as Chengxis fiance since childhood. Its all because of you that things have changed!
Yes, Chengxi likes you, and Ive stepped aside, but why are you still like this?
What do you want from me?
As Wei Shisheng spoke, tears uncontrobly fell from her eyes, her pitiful appearance tugging at ones heartstrings.
Hearing themotion, the people at the banquet turned their heads to look their way.
Wen Xin hadnt expected Wei Shisheng to air their private grievances in such a setting.
If that was the case, then she saw no reason to spare her feelings.
It you insist on ming me tor ruining your rtionship with Mu Chengxi, then fine, lets rify your rtionship with Mu Chengxi to everyone and expose the disgusting things youve done.
As she spoke, Wen Xin suddenly turned her head to look at Mu Chengxi. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
Mu Chengxi, who was initially sittingzily on the sofa, suddenly tensed up when he met Wen Xins gaze. He was unsure of what Wen Xin wanted to do. Wen Xins beautiful fingers twirled the knife as she slightly raised her eyebrows. After about a minute, she gently tapped the edge of the te with the knife, the sharp, crisp sound of the utensils striking ringing in the air. First, when did the Mu family recognize you as Mu Chengxis fiance?
Never. The elder Old Madam Mu never wanted to acknowledge me as Mu Chengxis fiance. I was the one clinging to Mu Chengxi, learning about him through Mu Bei, chasing him wherever he went. I know Mu Chengxi didnt return to the capital to avoid me.
Wei Shishengs voice was low, but the venue was so quiet that her words were heard clearly by everyone around.
They were all shocked to hear Wei Shisheng admitting to such humiliating actions.
Alright, weve cleared up the matter with Mu Chengxi. Now, lets talk about Ling Xuer. Why did you frame her back then? Why did you want Ling Xuer to be scandalized?
More and more people gathered around, eager to know why Wei Shisheng would suddenly admit to her actions and the truth behind what happened years ago.
As guests moved towards them, even the heads of some major families seated in the main area turned their attention to see what was happening.
Wei Shishengs eyes were somewhat blurred. Alfredo immediately noticed something was off with her. Surprised, he looked at Wen Xin, wanting to touch Wei Shisheng to bring her back to her senses.
The moment he turned his head, he caught Wen Xins threatening gaze.
It seemed that if he dared to make Wei Shisheng sober up, he would truly offend this still-angry young woman.
He withdrew his hand that was about to touch Wei Shisheng and ced it back in his pocket.
To take Wen Xin home, he was willing topromise, not minding if his reputation suffered.
I I was jealous of Ling Xuer, jealous of her noble birth. She was the little princess of the Ling family. Her superiority made me ufortable. I felt inferior because I was just an adopted daughter of the Wei family.
Even though in the capital, everyone said I was second only to the Mu familys young miss in terms of being ady, I knew no one truly regarded me seriously.
After the Mu familys eldest daughter left the capital, I should have been the most prominentdy, not Ling Xuer
So, that day, I disguised myself as a victim. I arranged a psychological clinic session and branded Ling Xuer with a stigma that she could never remove,
haha haha
At that moment, Wei Shisheng seemed like a mad woman, drawing strange looks from those around her. She had exposed her own vile actions.
Now, everyone looked at Ling Xuer with sympathy, although nobody dared to discuss the actions attributed to her.
However, the impact was real. From that day on, Ling Xuer was ostracized from the circle ofdies, as they feared bing the next victim.
Wen Xin got the answer she wanted. She had nned to expose Wei Shishengs ugly deeds on another asion, but since Wei Shisheng had taken the initiative toe to her doorstep, Wen Xin wouldnt hold back.
Seeing Wei Shishengs state, Alfredos gaze held a trace of dissatisfaction. With the situation having escted, he wasnt sure how to resolve it. He reached out to grab Wei Shishengs arm, intending to leave this embarrassing ce and apologize to Ou Zhengfengter.
Wen Xin didnt give them the chance to escape. With deliberate timing, she tapped the te with her knife again.
Wei Shisheng instantly snapped back to reality, covering her mouth hurriedly. Although she had been lucid when she spoke, her lucidity had led her to spill the truth..

How could this happen? I Cousin I
Wei Shisheng looked toward Mu Chengxi in a panic, instinctively wanting to exin to him.
But facing Mu Chengxis unfathomable eyes, filled with a dangerous glint, she found herself unable to say anything.
Cousin I She looked from Mu Chengxi to Alfredo, who was holding her arm, seeking his help with her eyes.
Dont say anything more. Lets just leave. This is utterly embarrassing!
Alfredo looked at Wei Shisheng with disdain, feeling that standing here was embarrassing enough, with nothing more to be said.
Miss Wei, since youve already revealed the truth, its necessary for us to settle the past grievances. Weve held back seeking justice because of Grandpa Weis reputation, but now that youre part of the Payton family, its time to address the wrongs youve done to my niece
Ling Yichen slowly stood up from the sofa, his presence menacing, as if he was ready to tear Wei Shisheng apart right there.
As Ling Yichen approached Wei Shisheng, Alfredo stepped in front of her. His deep blue eyes narrowed slightly at Ling Yichens peach blossom eyes, surprised by theck of respect shown by Ling Yichen in the capital.
Mr. Ling, since you say Wei Shisheng is part of our Payton family, then well take responsibility for her actions today. In the future
Cousin, we cant ept this. How can I continue living in the capital if we do? Wei Shisheng couldnt believe Alfredo would take responsibility for her actions, fearing not only a ruined reputation; it would be impossible for her to continue living in Beijing.
Shut up. Knowing youve done so many disgusting things, even if my uncle had no children and ended up alone, I wouldnt acknowledge you for his sake!
Alfredo reprimanded her scathingly. Today was the most embarrassing day of his life.
He had been very happy earlierat this banquet, he had finally met someone he had been looking for.
Unexpectedly, Wei Shisheng not only turned out to be her opponent but also publicly challenged her and ended up being humiliated without a fight. He deeply despised Shisheng from the bottom of his heart.
The onlookers watched intently, not wanting to miss a moment of the drama.
Young Master Ling, our Payton family is willing topensate for the loss to your niece on behalf of Wei Shisheng. Please, on this asion, show some mercy and let her off.
Alfredo had absolute authority in his own territory, but he willingly lowered his head because of the woman sitting not far away. He was now asking for forgivenessin a ce he cared nothing aboutfeeling an unprecedented humiliation he had not felt since he was young.
Ling Yichen, seeing Alfredo lower his noble head, disyed a mischievous smile, Alright, since Mr. Alfredo has spoken, Ill await your sincere apology to my niece
Emphasizing his words, Ling Yichen seized the rare opportunity to put Alfredo in his ce, not willing to let it pass.
Wen Xin, leaningzily against Mu Chengxi, raised an eyebrow at Ling Xuer as if to say, I promised to seek justice for you, and I will.
Ling Xuer looked back at Wen Xin, her eyes blinking like a little white rabbits, and then smiled sweetly.
Wei Shisheng, protected by Alfredo, saw the interaction between Wen Xin and Ling Xuer and wanted to confront them. Still, her remaining rationality advised against any rash actions, given the already humiliating situation.
Alright, Ill definitely give Mr. Ling a satisfactory response, Alfredo said, suppressing his anger while maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor.
With that, he led Wei Shisheng away from the banquet without hesitation.
Following such amotion, Ou Zhengfengs birthday party couldnt continue.
However, everyone was not in a hurry to leave; they were very curious about Wen Xins identity.
Clearly, someone from a humble background not only won Mu Chengxis favor, but even Alfredo treated her in a special manner.
Mu Chengxi asked a waiter for a cup of warm milk and handed it to Wen Xin. Seeing that she had calmed down a lot, with the redness in her eyes and at the corners diminishing, he finally rxed slightly.
Wait here for me; Ill be back shortly, and then we can leave together, Mu Chengxi said softly, nting a gentle kiss on Wen Xins hair.
Okay, go ahead
Wen Xin lowered her head to y a game, not looking at Mu Chengxi. It was a good moment for her to deal with some matters, and she hadnt figured out an excuse to get rid of Mu Chengxi yet. His departure was timely.
After finishing a game, Wen Xin looked up to see that Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei were not around. She discreetly slipped the dinner knife into her sleeve and stood up, heading towards the exit of the venue.
Just as Wen Xin stepped out of the banquet hall, she sensed someone following her. Her lips curled into a mischievous smile.
She stopped in a beautifully lit, scenic spot by a bridge and spoke in a cool voice, Send your master out. Youre not my match.
Aware of Wen Xins skills, they dared only to follow from a distance, not daring to make a move.
Then, a tall, somewhat slender figure appeared in Wen Xins view. The man was taller than Mu Chengxi, who was already of an ideal height, seeming to be over 190 centimeters tall.
I didnt expect your name to be Wen Xin. No wonder I couldnt find you. How much longer will you hide from me? Youre neen now; its time to fulfill our marriage agreement.
Hearing the words marriage agreement, Wen Xins smile faded, her expression turning from cool to icy, her entire demeanor bing somewhat intimidating.
Marriage agreement? Are you sure you want to bring that up with me? Do you believe I could end this right here, right now? Stop your wishful thinking!
Wen Xin hated being constrained the most, especially by those who arranged a nonsensical marriage agreement without her consent. Since that day, this bothersome man had been thinking of taking her back.
You have to acknowledge it even if you dont want to. Your parents arranged this marriage for you. They may be gone, but that doesnt change a thing!
Seeing Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi so close together had already sent Alfredo over the edge..

He had thought Wen Xin wouldnt fall for anyone, so he could wait and let her do as she pleased outside.
But when he saw how Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi, he realized she had feelings for him. The girl who knew nothing of love and harbored only hatred had disappeared.
She had someone she liked, and he couldnt ept that.
Dont mention my parents; youre not worthy. Alfredo, if you want to leave Country Z alive and return to the Independent State, I advise you to disappear from my sight right now. Im not known for my patience.
And dont bother me in the future. Independent State? Ill return if I wish, and nobody can force me otherwise!
Wen Xins eyes slightly reddened, her entire demeanor proud, rebellious, and unbridled.
Alfredo did not heed Wen Xins advice. He couldnt let her be with Mu Chengxi and was determined to take her away today, even if it meant doing so by force.
He reached out to grab Wen Xins arm, but she seemed to have anticipated his move. Before he could touch her, Wen Xin raised her hand and swiftly restrained Alfredo, pushing him hard against the wall.
Alfredo hadnt expected Wen Xin to possess such skills. Despite being on guard, he was unprepared for her strength, feeling as though all his internal organs were shaken.
The pain overwhelmed him, causing him to grunt.
As his grunt escaped, a metallic gleam shed before his eyes, and he felt something cold and metallic press against his neck.
This scene shocked Alfredos bodyguard. A bald man suddenly rushed forward, shouting from behind Wen Xin, Miss, you cant
Cant? Didnt I tell you not to interfere in my life, and yet you didnt listen? And I said I wouldnt acknowledge the marriage arrangement, but no one took that to heart, did they? Now you tell me I cantwhy should I spare him?
While speaking, Wen Xin pressed the dinner knife against Alfredos carotid artery, applying slight pressure and blinking at him with her beautiful eyes.
Scared? Although the knife isnt fast, its enough in my hands to kill you. Want to try? One cut and I guarantee you wont even have a chance to be saved.
Alfredo, looking into Wen Xins dark and dangerous eyes, didnt dare speak. He knew her character well and understood her threats were not empty; she could really do it.
Im telling you, dont even think about harming the people close to me, especially Mu Chengxi. Hes my man. If you dare to scheme against him, Ill blow up your Payten family. I mean what I say.
Hes yours? Then what am I? I manage the Independent State on your behalf; am I not yours? Yatta, how can you be so cold-hearted to me? Does our marriage agreement mean nothing? You cant
Alfredo couldnt ept Wen Xins protection of Mu Chengxi. She was supposed to be his, but
Before Alfredo could finish, Wen Xins knife made a cut on his neck, cleverly avoiding the major artery.
Instantly, a line of blood appeared, visibly oozing out, shocking everyone around.
The bald man was the first to rush up, trying to take the knife from Wen Xins hand, but before he could touch her, she kicked him away with all her strength.
Wen Xin, looking at the blood on Alfredos neck, shed a bloodthirsty excitement in her eyes, Ive said it; dont bring up our engagement again. Ive already epted the Mu familys betrothal gifts. Put away your useless schemes; its impossible between us!
With those words, Wen Xin released Alfredo, turned her head to nce at the bald man struggling to get up from the ground, and smirked, Dont worry, its not fatal. Just superficial wounds.
Wen Xin shook the knife in her hand, and the line of bodyguards wisely cleared a path for her, not daring to block this she-devil.
Wen Xin, go to hell!
Just then, a figure charged towards her from afar.
Wen Xin turned to see that the person running towards her was Wei Shisheng. Her lips slightly curved up; she had been looking for an excuse to deal with Wei Shisheng properly, and since she hade to her, she might as well join Alfredo in needing hospital treatment.
Wen Xin casually threw the dinner knife in her hand, sending it flying straight at Wei Shisheng.
When Wei Shisheng saw the flying knife, she had no time to dodge it. The knife pierced her shoulder, causing her to lose strength instantly and fall to the ground hard.
The knife, which had only prated the flesh, went deeper into her bone due to her fall, causing excruciating pain that made her scream, attracting many people from the banquet hall.
The crowd rushed over to see Alfredo with blood on his neck, standing next to a bald man holding his stomach, trying to stop Alfredos bleeding with a tissue.
And there was Wei Shisheng, with a dinner knife stuck in her shoulder and a dagger in her hand.
It was clear Wei Shisheng had intended to kill someone but had failed.
Seeing more and more people running over, Alfredo didnt want the incident to cause any trouble for Wen Xin. He coldly ordered the bodyguards, Take her to the hospital, were leaving
As he left, Alfredo couldnt help but give Wen Xin several more nces. He knew the hatred in Wen Xins heart, but he wasnt going to give up easily.
The bodyguards picked Wei Shisheng up from the ground and hurriedly followed Alfredo, leaving the scene quickly. Soon, the ce returned to its usual calm, as if nothing had happened.
At this time, Mu Chengxi, Liang Luoyu, and others also hurried over. Mu Chengxi ran to Wen Xin, wrapping her in his arms, his gaze falling on the blood on the ground, his eyes cold and dangerous.
Are you alright? Did you get hurt anywhere? Mu Chengxi asked anxiously. When he saw Wen Xin missing upon his return and guessed what she might have done, that made him panic.
Its okay. Lets just inform Old Ou and leave. Wen Xin held Mu Chengxis hand, giving him a gentle smile and a reassuring look, telling him not to worry.
Mu Chengxi held Wen Xins hand and led her away from the curious crowd towards the lounge.
When Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi reached the restrooms, they coincidentally bumped into Ou Shenzhi running out. Shenzhi gave Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin aplex look but said nothing and hurriedly ran away..

Seeing Ou Shenzhis hurried departure, Mu Chengxi instantly realized whose blood was on the ground.
He briefly instructed Mu Bei, who was following behind him, and Mu Bei also hurried off.
Mu Chengxi, with Wen Xin, entered Ou Zhengfengs rest area, where Old Madam Mu, Old Mister Wei, and Mister Ling were all sitting. At this time, members of the four major families of the capital were present, and the decisions of these families could influence the development of the capital. Why have you twoe? Xin girl,e here, sit next to grandma.
Before Wen Xin entered, the four major families were discussing matters rted to the Independent State.
The Independent State was a support for these families at the beginning of their establishment, but as things became moreplicated, they gradually distanced themselves from it.
Only the Wei family maintained close ties with the Independent State, but they ended up raising Wei Shisheng, who became a troublemaker.
Today, to their surprise, they encountered someone from the Independent State again, the chairman of the Independent State, not knowing who attracted Alfredo to the capital.
Although Wen Xin wanted to leave, she did not refuse the invitation of Old
Madam Mu and walked obediently to her side, politely calling her Grandma before sitting down.
Old Madam Mu looked at Wen Xin fondly, holding her hand and introducing her.
Xin girl, this is todays birthday star, Old Ou, Chengxis mentor, who turned Chengxi into such a carefree person. If Chengxi bullies you in the future, not only can Grandma support you, but he can too.
Wen Xin smiled lightly, not saying anything, as Mu Chengxi could not bear to bully her.
Xin girl, this is Chengxis grandfather. When you have time, let Chengxi take you to visit his grandfathers house more often. There are many treasures there!
Old Madam Mu pointed to Old Master Wei, introducing him to Wen Xin.
Old Master Wei looked at Wen Xin with a kind smile. He had heard of this youngdy before but had never met her. Seeing her impressive power on their first meeting, he admired her.
Let Chengxi bring you to the Wei family for a meal sometime and properly introduce you to the Wei family.
Okay, when we have time, let him take me to have a meal with Grandpa. Wen Xin responded softly, appearing somewhat cool but already very well-behaved.
This is the head of the Ling family.
Miss Wen, Ive heard a lot about you, and I want to thank you for taking care of Xuer. If it werent for you, Xuers life might have been derailed.
Ling Qiaonan stood up and spoke to Wen Xin very politely.
Wen Xin had already made a name for herself in the Ling family, and many people wanted to meet her. However, due to Mu Chengxis rtionship, they didnt dare to disturb her carelessly.
After chatting briefly with the elders, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi exined their purpose.
Hearing that the two were nning to leave, neither Ou Zhengfeng nor Old Madam Mu stopped them.
Then you should head back soon. Be careful on the road.
Okay, Grandma, you should also go back early. Knowing that Mu Chengxu was waiting outside for Old Madam Mu, Mu Chengxi had nothing to worry about and left with Wen Xin.
After Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi left, Old Madam Mu watched Wen Xins departing figure with a meaningful smile in her eyes, as if she had seen through something but chose not to say it out loud.
On the way home, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi sat in the back seat of the car driven by Mu Bei, with Liang Luoyu sitting in the passenger seat, seemingly busy messaging someone.
After dropping off Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi at their residence, Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei didnt get out of the car but drove away from the neighborhood immediately.
Wen Xin, watching the car drive away, curiously raised her head to look at Mu Chengxi.
Do they have something going on tonight?
They are heading to Continent F. Lets go upstairs; its cold outside. Mu Chengxi, holding Wen Xins hand, wrapped his arm around her and walked towards the elevator.
Back home, Wen Xin went to take a shower first, and Mu Chengxi ordered some takeout. Then, he took a set of home clothes from the wardrobe and went to the guest room to take a shower.
When Wen Xin came out after her shower, Mu Chengxi was alreadyzily sitting on the sofa, scrolling through his phone, tapping away at the screen, and responding to someones messages.
Seeing Wen Xine out, Mu Chengxi sat up, inviting Wen Xin to sit next to him, wrapping his arm around her naturally.
We havent eaten much tonight. I ordered some takeout. Lets rest after were full.
Since Wen Xin started consulting Zhuge Jingming about her health, Mu Chengxi has been particrly attentive to her meals, never letting her miss a meal and go hungry.
Wen Xin noticed the calmness on Mu Chengxis face, knowing his heart was anything but calm. Otherwise, he wouldnt have had Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei leave the capital for Continent F in such a hurry.
Arent you curious about my rtionship with the Independent State? Wen Xin sat up from Mu Chengxis embrace, resting her chin on his knee, her bright eyes fixed on his deep ones.
Mu Chengxi lifted his hand to rub Wen Xins head, sliding down to her ear and gently pinching her earlobe.
Ill listen when youre ready to talk. I wont force you to do anything youre unwilling to.
Mu Chengxi provided Wen Xin with enough security and space. For him, nothing was more important than Wen Xins presence by his side; everything else was secondary.
Seeing Mu Chengxis indulgence, Wen Xin sat up straight, her gaze serious as she looked at him.
My parents were from the Independent State. They left because my mother was pregnant and targeted for assassination. Leaving meant escaping the Independent States control, but from the age of three, Ive been shuttling between the Independent State and the capital.
My fathers family is a major n in the Independent State, holding absolute control. But he never wanted that power, always rejecting it until his death, never escaping the Independent States grasp.
Before his death, to avoid managing Independent State affairs and ensure no maniption by others, he established a council to oppose the Elder Council And Alfredos father was the former chairman.
Years have passed, the elders ambitions have grown, and the council members have gradually been brainwashed. The current Independent State is even moreplex than in my fathers time. I dont want to take over this mess, so Ive always wanted to dissociate myself from the Independent State, but it seems theyre not willing to let me go.
Wen Xins eyes turnedplex as she spoke. She wouldnt return to the
Independent State without resolving her parents issues.
She wouldnt let herself be a tool for their gain unless she dealt with those people.
Is there no one else in your fathers family? Why cant you give it away if you dont want power?
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin, unable toprehend the system of the
Independent State..
Chapter 384 - 384: The Heir Chosen by Heaven
Chapter 384 - 384: The Heir Chosen by Heaven
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Mu Chengxi found it difficult to understand the system of the Independent State. He had interactions with people from the Independent State and did not like them much. Later, their interactions were merely straightforward coborations without deeper understanding or getting to know each other.
The control of the Independent State is chosen by destiny. Do you know what that means? Wen Xin blinked at Mu Chengxi, her lips curving into a mysterious smile.
Chosen by destiny? What does that mean? Does heaven select the heir for you all in the Independent State?
Confused by Wen Xins question, Mu Chengxi found the affairs of the
Independent State even more perplexing. He had heard of the title Heavens Chosen One but never really understood its significance.
Its pretty much about heaven choosing the heir. Wen Xin stretchedzily on the sofa, then nestledfortably, her gaze distant and cool.
After a family has children, they can report these childrens names and birthdays to the Elders Council. The council sets a time for the selection during a season known for frequent thunderstorms.
Hearing this, Mu Chengxis eyes widened in disbelief. You mean to say that being struck by lightning proves one is the chosen one? That that would mean each generation suffers heavy casualties!
Thats how it is. Wen Xins eyes were cold, highlighting her iprehension of such practices.
The Independent State believes its ahead of the world in every aspect, even looking down on the development elsewhere. Yet, they continue to choose heirs in the most ancient and cruel ways.
My father was ten years old when he participated in the Heavenly Selection.
He was a genius, not just in our family but in the entire Independent State. Even though the family didnt want him to participate, the Elders Council forced him.
My father witnessed people around him, one after another, being struck to death by lightning. He didnt see it as a selection by destiny but as a ceremony by the Elders Council to kill off the talented individuals of the Independent
State.
As Wen Xin spoke, the corners of her eyes reddened slightly, indicating her disturbed emotions.
Mu Chengxi, unable to bear Wen Xin recalling such past events, embraced her, soothing her gently.
Its okay. If you dont want to talk about it, then dont think about it. You dont want to return to the Independent State, and here with me, no one can force you.
Wen Xin leaned against Mu Chengxis chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart, and smiled lightly, These things are just part of the past; theres nothing I dont want to talk about.
Lying in Mu Chengxis arms, resting against his chest, Wen Xins tone was noticeably more rxed than before.
My father, having experienced such pain, didnt want his child to go through it again. So, after my mother became pregnant, my father secretly took her away. Butter, our whereabouts were discovered, and at three, I was forcibly taken back to the Independent State, bing the Chosen One. Naturally, after my fathers death, I became the heir in name only.
Hearing Wen Xins story, Mu Chengxis hold tightened, his hands trembling involuntarily. He couldnt imagine a three-year-old child, utterly clueless, having to endure such horror, likely leaving a lifelong scar.
On my eighteenth birthday, I returned to the Independent State and took over its affairs, only to find it was an empty position. All decision-making powers were controlled by the Elders Council and the Council of Governors. Despite being the ruler of the Independent State, I was just a puppet, merely a figurehead.
The mostughable part is, I dont even know when it started, but I somehow got engaged to Alfredo. The council and the elders told me that marrying
Alfredo would return absolute control of the Independent State to my hands.
I thought they were joking. Do they think they can control me, Wen Xin, at will? If I wanted the Independent State, Id take them down one by one, ensuring the next generation wouldnt suffer their treatment.
Mu Chengxis grip around Wen Xin tightened as he heard about the engagement with Alfredo. His mood worsened, unable to tolerate the idea of another man wanting his woman. It seemed necessary to give the Independent State some trouble to ease his displeasure.
Feeling Mu Chengxis strength, Wen Xins cold hand cupped his cheek, gently pecking it, You alwaysin Im too young. Arent you afraid the duck at your lips might fly away before you can eat it?
By the end, Wen Xin couldnt help butugh, seeing the displeased expression on Mu Chengxis face, realizing she had genuinely scared him.
I wont give you the chance to fly away. Youve already epted my betrothal gift. Even if you go back to the Independent State, youll take me with you. Ill help you stabilize the realm, ensuring you can sitfortably in your rightful ce!
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin with determination. With him by her side, she wouldnt have to deal with those troubles. All Wen Xin needed to do was enjoy her life.
Alright, lets not talk about the Independent State anymore. When is the takeout arriving? Im hungry. Wen Xiny in Mu Chengxis arms, enjoying the warmth of his body, thinking this winter might not be as hard as before.
Ding-dong Ding-dong
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin, pinching her cheek gently, then kissed her lightly.
Go wash your hands. Ill go downstairs to get the takeout.
Zhi Lan had excellent privacy, and delivery personnel were not allowed to go upstairs directly, a task usually handled by Mu Bei.
Wen Xin sat on the sofa, watching Mu Chengxi put on his coat, smiling lightly. She found him incredibly handsome, perfectly matching her taste.
After Mu Chengxi collected the meal downstairs, he encountered a female neighboring out of the elevator. The female neighbor looked at Mu Chengxi and could not help but feel sorry for him. She thought that this man was so handsome, but it was a pity that he was actually a food delivery man.
Mu Chengxi, mistaken for a delivery man, didnt even nce at the woman but instead hurried upstairs with the meal. It was gettingte, and Wen Xin needed to eat and rest soon.
In the hospital
Wei Shisheng had been in surgery for three and a half hours. Alfredo, having treated his wounds, sat on a bench in the corridor, his expression dark and grim.
What did you say? Whats happening with the Independent State? Alfredo asked coldly, looking at the data on his tablet and addressing the man standing beside him.
News from the Independent State. For some reason, Continent F has stopped exporting diamonds and ores to the Independent State, and Continent M has also suspended cooperation on rare earths and electronic data. The reason is unclear..

Chapter 385 - 385: Sanctions from Continent F and Continent M
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
The bald man had just received the news and immediately reported it to Alfredo. Everything happened so suddenly, catching them off guard.
Rare earths? Ores? Are they trying to loot a burning house? It was the first time Alfredo encountered such a situation since taking office, facing simultaneous sanctions against the Independent State from entire continents, which he found baffling.
The rare earth mines in Continent M suddenly implemented limited sales a while ago. Many people suspected there was some issue with the mines. Now, cutting off cooperation with the Independent State raises suspicions that someone might be manipting the situation intentionally.
As for the ores from Continent F, the control over the diamond and rare ore mines lies entirely in the hands of Continent Fs overlord. Like the rare earth mine owner in Continent M, their identities are shrouded in mystery.
Whats most iprehensible is Continent Ms sudden halt of electronic data support, putting enormous pressure on our electronic database. Weve experienced six hacking attempts within two hours. Chairman, when when do we go back to handle this?
The bald man looked at Alfredo with difficulty, knowing Alfredo didnt want to return to the Independent State, even if the young Miss had attacked him; it couldnt stop his desire to take her away.
The people in the Independent State dont know about my injury, right? Alfredos main concern was minimizing the impact of his injury; he didnt want the people from the Independent State to disturb Wen Xins life.
Not yet, but I believe it wont be a secret for long. After all, your safety is a significant concern for the Independent State. Someone will inevitably inform the elders council.
That would be your negligence!
Alfredos gaze darkened as he looked at the bald man beside him, raising an eyebrow without saying anything, leaving him to interpret the meaning behind his words.
Understanding Alfredos implication, the bald man didnt dare to say more, replying with determination, Dont worry, chairman. Ill find a suitable excuse for your hand injury, ensuring no one learns of the Misss whereabouts.
At that moment, the operating room door opened, and a team of chief surgeons walked out. The bald man nced towards the operating room, noticing Ou Shenzhi inquiring about Wei Shishengs condition.
Turning back to Alfredo, whose expression was calm, the bald man remarked, The young master of the Ou family is truly devoted to Wei Shisheng. Despite being thoroughly rejected, he hasnt given up.
Hearing the bald mans words, Alfredo shifted his gaze from the tablet, looking in Ou Shenzhis direction.
Honestly, this man is quite outstanding in the capital. If he genuinely wants to be with Wei Shisheng, why not give him a chance?
Do you mean to agree to cooperate with the Ou family?
The bald man couldnt grasp his masters thoughts. Since Wei Shisheng liked Mu Chengxi, why not let her pursue Mu Chengxi? That way, thedy could return to the Independent State and ept the marriage agreement.
Why would they facilitate Wei Shishengs rtionship with Ou Shenzhi?
Thinking this, he also naturally voiced his confusion, somewhat unclear about why this was the chosen approach.
Chairman, wouldnt it be best to let Miss Wei pursue Mu Chengxi? Why
Dont cause her trouble. I want her to willingly return to the Independent State with me, not to be disgusted by the others. Wei Shisheng is not even on the same level as her. If Wei Shisheng were topete with her, Wei Shisheng would only die faster, standing no chance at all.
It seemed Alfredo had already foreseen the oue of a conflict between Wei Shisheng and Wen Xin; Wei Shisheng would meet a terrible end.
Sir, Miss Weis shoulder condition is not optimistic. Its a second injury to her shoulder, and the damage is severe. Although the surgery was sessful, she will only recover enough to perform basic self-care, unable to do any precise tasks or lift heavy objects.
After exining Wei Shishengs condition to Ou Shenzhi, the doctor approached Alfredo to discuss her prognosis.
Hearing about Wei Shishengs condition, Alfredo wasnt too surprised, as if he had anticipated such an oue.
Alright, Im aware of her condition now. Thank you for your efforts.
Alfredo stood up to politely thank the doctor, then approached Ou Shenzhi.
This situation is the result of Wei Shishengs own doing. I had already arranged for her to be removed from the venue; I dont know why she came back and even tried to kill Wen Xin with a knife. I threw the knife in her shoulder.
You also heard its a second injury, meaning she fell herself, causing severe damage. So, I hope you dont direct your anger at anyone else or dont me me for being unfriendly!
This was the first time Alfredo had spoken so much to an outsider. He med everything that had happened in the banquet hall on himself, hoping to shield Wen Xin from any trouble.
Ou Shenzhi looked at Alfredo with his crimson eyes, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, suppressing the urge to act, speaking in a lowered voice, Youre her brother; why are you favoring an outsider? Do you know? She was happy to know her identity, saying she was no longer just an adopted daughter living under others roofs. She had a noble identity, but what did you do? You gave her hope and then destroyed it. If thats the case, I wish you hadnt acknowledged her.
Wen Xin is Mu Chengxis girlfriend, which was already a heavy blow to her. Now, for Wen Xin, are you going to abandon her too? Dont you know shes your sister?
Ou Shenzhis anger almost overwhelmed his reason; he had thought that, as a brother, he would not let anyone who hurt his sister off the hook, but this was entirely different from what he expected.
Alfredo handed his tablet to the bald man, his hands in his pockets, standing straight, smirking coldly at Ou Shenzhi.
Are all the foolish things she did insignificant in your eyes? Today, I finally understand why the young masters of the major families in the capital dont associate with you; your values are indeed different from theirs.
Firstly, let me emphasize: although she is my second uncles daughter, she is just an illegitimate daughter, and my family will not acknowledge her. Even if she wants to acknowledge kinship, its only with my uncle, nothing to do with me.
Also, regarding Wen Xin, no matter whose girlfriend she is, she is the most precious person in my eyes. Remember, if you darey a hand on Wen, I can assure you, not even your grandfather can save you..

Finally, I remind you to remember what I initially told you: her injury was caused by me, unrted to Wen Xin. I hope you dont seek trouble unnecessarily. Neither I nor Mu Chengxi will allow you to harm Wen Xin.
As for Wei Shishengs injury, I will arrange for doctors from the Independent State to examine her
After finishing, Alfredo turned and strode away.
Ou Shenzhi, upon hearing his words, paused in surprise and called out with a furrowed brow, Shes injured like this, and youre not taking her back for treatment?
Ive said she doesnt have the right to enter the Independent State. Alfredo stopped, turned to nce at Ou Shenzhi, and spoke with a cold smirk.
Alone in the echoing corridor, Ou Shenzhi couldnt believe Alfredos coldness towards Wei Shisheng. If they didnt care for Wei Shisheng, then he would. Even if she didnt love him, he couldnt ignore her.
With trembling hands, he pulled out his phone, logged into the dark web, and posted a bounty seeking the Miracle Doctor, hoping the Miracle Doctor could heal Wei Shishengs shoulder.
The next morning, Wen Xin learned of Alfredos departure from the capital. While eating, she logged into her dark web ount out of boredom and immediately saw the bounty for the Miracle Doctor
Wen Xin, looking at her phone, suddenly recalled Mu Chengxi also sought a miraculous healer, wondering what Mu Chengxi needed the healer for.
Resting her chin on one hand, she observed the man across her peeling shrimp, pondering for a moment before speaking softly.
I heard you were looking for a miraculous healer? I remember at that time, grandmas health had already recovered. What did you need it for?
Back then, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi werent as close as now, and she wasnt interested in his affairs. But things had changed, and she was somewhat curious about this matter.
For you, Mu Chengxi didnt hide anything, pushing the peeled shrimp towards Wen Xin, speaking softly.
When I knew you had donated a part of your liver to save Geng Qiu, I saw you looking pale. I wanted to find a miraculous healer to help you recover, but I didnt find one.
Wen Xin was somewhat surprised by Mu Chengxis answer. She picked up a shrimp, dipped it in some sauce, and then ate it.
After chewing a few times, she spoke lightly, If I remember correctly, the first time we met, you ordered a superior birds nest for me because I looked pale, right?
Yes, that wasnt our first meeting, though. The first time I saw you was outside the Geng familys house when Mu Bei discovered the whereabouts of an ancient jade. He took me to the Geng familys vi, and thats when I saw you.
Its strange, but that nce was enough for you to capture my heart. I couldnt hide my feelings for you anymore; seeing you made me want to treat you well.
Fate is a mysterious thing. Actually, I didnt believe anyone in the country could cure grandmas illness. I agreed to let the doctor check on Grandmas health, reluctantly epting at Madam Zhaos insistence, and it gave me the chance to hold onto you, making you my woman.
Hearing Mu Chengxis long-held intentions, a smile appeared in Wen Xins bright eyes, her eyebrows raised, Just your girlfriend, not yet your woman.
After all, our rtionship is only superficial and hasnt gone deeper.
Wen Xins words made Mu Chengxi pause while picking up food. He looked up at Wen Xin, who was lightlyughing, No hurry. When the timees for a deeper understanding, just dont beg for mercy.
You seem very confident? Wen Xin raised an eyebrow at Mu Chengxi. She took the opportunity to tease him while he still dared noty a hand on her, knowing that otherwise, she would likely be at a disadvantage in such matters in the future.
In a blink, half a month passed, and the weather grew colder, entering the season for wearing coats. Thanks to Zhuge Jingmings help, Wen Xins hands gradually warmed.
The recent treatment wasnt as unbearable as the first time. Taking advantage of Mu Chengxis trip to Continent F, Wen Xin visited Zhuge Jingmings clinic alone, without letting anyone apany her.
After the treatment, Wen Xinsplexion appeared somewhat pale, but she was fully mobile.
The Little Uncle-Masters recovery is better than expected. Your medical skills are truly exquisite.
Wen Xin wasnt interested in hearing Zhuge Jingmings ttery. She ced her wrist where Zhuge Jingminz could take her pulse and spoke in a calm tone, Check my condition. My previous diagnosis wasplete infertility. Now, see if theres any chance for reversal?
For the past half month, Wen Xin had been taking her medicine regrly, yet she dared not take her own pulse.
She could feel the improvement in her cold constitution, but the issue of fertility might still require a long treatment. She wondered if the Mu family could ept it if it remained unresolved, potentially causing another storm.
Zhuge Jingming was somewhat surprised that Wen Xin cared about this issue, but understanding the Mu familys status and position, he could understand her worries.
After about ten minutes, Zhuge Jingming hesitated before slowly raising his head, Little Uncle-Master, theres no change in your condition. Maybe its still too early? Ill keep an eye out within the Green Physician Sect for someone proficient in this area and have them work with you for proper treatment.
Wen Xin withdrew her hand, straightening her sleeves, and nodded lightly to
Zhuge Jingming, Its okay. Maybe Im just being impatient.
Standing up, Wen Xin put on her coat and took out a modified prescription from her pocket, cing it on Zhuge Jingmings desk.
Ive made some changes to this prescription. I have three days worth of medicine left, just enough until the next treatment. Arrange for six days worth of medicine ording to this prescription. Ill try it and see the effects.
Alright, Little Uncle-Master, wont you stay for lunch? Zhuge Jingming knew Wen Xin was leaving by her actions. He had already asked his wife to prepare lunch, not expecting Wen Xin to skip it today.
I have an appointment at noon, something to attend to, so I wont stay for lunch here. Ill be going now.
Wen Xin ced the sterilized acupuncture needles into her backpack, slung it over her shoulder, and left Zhuge Jingmings clinic.
As she exited Zhuge Jingmings clinic, Wen Xin coincidentally encountered a shy Ferrari stopping outside. Alighting from the car were Ou Shenzhi and Wei Shisheng, both of whom were surprised to see Wen Xin..

Ou Shenzhi remembered Alfredos warning and did not seek trouble with Wen Xin, merely observing her with cold indifference.
However, Wei Shisheng couldnt contain her hatred upon seeing Wen Xin. Wen Xin had turned her into aughingstock in the capital. After her ident, not one of the people who had previously fawned over her showed up.
She didnt need to ask to know the reason. It was all caused by Wen Xin.
Wen Xin simply nced indifferently at Wei Shisheng. She knew they had never ceased their search for the divine doctor. Somehow, Ou Shenzhi had learned how to ce orders with Di Ting and had ced an order.
Yet, Wen Xin had deleted all those orders and even cklisted Ou Shenzhis ount.
Their appearance here did not surprise Wen Xin. She had guessed that they had considered Zhuge Jingming theirst hope. However, they were overly optimistic. Such injuries could not be treated with ordinary Chinese medicine.
Wen Xin, youve made me this way. I wont let you go! Seeing Wen Xin walk past as if nothing had happened, Wei Shisheng shook off Ou Shenzhis hand holding her arm and rushed towards Wen Xin without a second thought.
Ou Shenzhi quickly embraced Wei Shisheng, trying his best to calm her agitated emotions, Youre no match for her. The doctor said you cant injure your arm any further, or else youll have no chance!
Ou Shenzhi, why are you afraid of her? Youre so pathetic, you cant even protect me, yet you im to love me. Do you know how Mu Chengxi protects her? If you treated me the way Mu Chengxi treats her, I wouldnt look down on you!
Wei Shisheng yelled at Ou Shenzhi in the street. This wasnt the first time she hadpared Mu Chengxi to him, and her words were always hurtful.
This time, Ou Shenzhi suddenly let go of her. He looked at Wei Shisheng throwing a tantrum and smiled bitterly.
He had been taking good care of Wei Shisheng every day, but in return, she kept saying he was inferior to Mu Chengxi.
Now, Wei Shisheng made no effort to hide her rejection of him, and he wondered what the point of persisting was.
Since you think Im not as good as Mu Chengxi, then Ill step out of your life. I wont disturb you from pursuing what you want.
After saying this, he walked to the drivers seat, opened the door, got in the car, and drove away.
Watching his car disappear from her sight, Wei Shisheng realized the person she thought would never leave her had gone.
She stood rooted to the spot, feeling lost and unsure how things had escted to this point
Wen Xin took a taxi to a private room at the Tianxiang Pavilion. She checked the time and saw there was one minute left. She hadnt expected someone to be even more punctual than her. Was this a trivial matter for the other party?
About thirty secondster, the door of the private room opened, and a ck figure walked in.
When Wen Xin saw who it was, she was somewhat surprised. She slightly raised her eyebrows, not expecting it to be him.
The man stared at Wen Xin, his eyes filled with astonishment. He had never expected the person he was dealing with to be a woman, let alone her.
Are you slightly tipsy? Ou Jinzhi tentatively asked. He took out his phone to confirm the room number of the private room and, after verifying it was correct, sat down.
Yes, Im a little tipsy. Barry couldnt make it, so he asked me toe in his stead. I didnt expect it to be you. Since were acquainted, I hope you can adhere to our rules. As acquaintances, I can offer you a 3% discount on the first order,
Wen Xin said, sittingzily on a stool with her legs crossed, exuding an air of arrogance and nonchnce, quite different from how she appeared at the birthday party.
Three percent? Barry said that hes not selling these. Can you make that decision? What Ou Jinzhi wanted were the goods Barry had, and he had no interest in Wen Xins identity.
Most importantly, the conditions offered by Wen Xin were very tempting. He nned on working with Barry for the long term. Having such a close rtionship meant there was no need to worry about not being able to acquire what their base wanted.
Of course. Wen Xin could see the scheming look in Ou Jinzhis eyes. She smiled lightly; it seemed the 3% discount had sessfully sealed the deal.
Wen Xin took out her tablet from her backpack, opened a mini-program, and ced it in front of Ou Jinzhi.
Take a look at what you need. These items are thetest research from our institute. Once youve made your choices, add them to the cart. Ill have Barry personally contact you for the follow-up.
Ou Jinzhi took the tablet Wen Xin handed over, and when he saw the images on the screen, his eyes filled with shock. These were goods Barry had previously told him were not for sale, yet now, Wen Xin was letting him choose freely. Are you sure? Barry said these werent for sale. Can you decide on this?
Wen Xinzily picked up the milk tea in front of her, took a casual sip, and raised an eyebrow at Ou Jinzhi, Im letting you choose. Just pick whatever you want. Since hes asked me to deal with you, hes obviously granted me some privileges. You dont need to worry about anything else!
Wen Xins demeanor was rxed and detached. Facing Ou Jinzhi, she did not hold back her sharpness at all. To her, Ou Jinzhi was just the son of Elder Ou, with no special rtionship that required her to dull her brilliance.
An hourter, Wen Xin had finished eating, and Ou Jinzhi had also selected what he needed via a video conference. He handed the tablet back to Wen Xin.
Ive made my selections. How long will it take for this batch of goods to be delivered?
Wen Xin took the tablet, nced at his selections, and raised her eyebrows. It seemed he had long coveted these items, all of which were thetest research from the institute.
Three months, but some are in stock. Ill have Barry personallymunicate with you and send the in-stock items first. The rest shouldnt take too long. As Wen Xin spoke to Ou Jinzhi, she submitted his order to Barry.
Right after the order was submitted, Wen Xins phone rang. She nced at the phone beside her, saw Barrys number, and smiled faintly, deliberately waiting a few seconds before answering the call.
Hello Wen Xin picked up the phonezily, her tone light and cheerful, sounding in good spirits.
Master Drunk, are you sure youre not dreaming? Our goods Youre fully aware of the condition of our goods, right? Selling thetest products, arent you going too far? We.

Barrys first words over the phone wereints towards Wen Xin, regretting entrusting this task to her. He wondered if it was toote to refuse the coboration now.
The order has already been signed; its toote to back out now. Also, I forgot to tell you to let go of the 3% profit; consider it giving face to an acquaintance!
Master Drunk, what are you trying to do?
Hearing Wen Xin insisting on relinquishing profits, Barry nearly passed out from frustration, his concern for his own status forgotten as he yelled at Wen Xin over the phone.
Barrys roar was loud and clear to Ou Jinzhi, who began to doubt this deal would bring the joy he anticipated. He suspected Wen Xin might not be able to make decisions on Barrys behalf.
Alright, lets settle it this way. Be quick and have the goods ready in three months.
Having said that, Wen Xin no longer wished to hear Barrys yelling and hung up the phone without hesitation.
The rest is between you and Barry. Ive got things to do, so Ill be leaving. Wen Xin put the tablet into her backpack, stood up, donned her jacket, and headed towards the door of the private room.
Slightly Tipsy, is this order finalized? Or will there be changes? Ou Shenzhi, somewhat confused by Wen Xins attitude, wasnt sure if the deal was considered sessful.
Its finalized. Barry will discuss with you the delivery address and the deposit price. Anything else? If not, Ill be leaving.
Wen Xins gaze was cold as she looked at Ou Jinzhi, who, still in shock, gestured for her to leave and watched her go.
After Wen Xin left, he slowly sat down on a nearby chair, his mind filled with images of Wen Xin on the phone and her departure. What exactly was Slightly Tipsys identity, and what was the identity of Mu Chengxis girlfriend?
Doctor? High school student? Country girl? Slightly Tipsy? Which was her real identity, or did she have other surprising identities? It was all too astonishing. He wondered if Mu Chengxi knew that Slightly Tipsy was his girlfriend, feeling unexpectedly eager about it.
Just as she entered the residential area, the security guard caught up to Wen Xin from behind, Miss Wen, this is a package FOR Mr. Mu. I wanted to deliver it to you earlier, but no one was home when I rang the doorbell. Since youre passing by, could you take this package up?
Wen Xin took the package from the security guard, gave it a light shake without guessing its contents, thanked him, and headed towards the apartment building.
Back at home, Wen Xin nced at the box in her hands. She didnt want to open it but worried it might be something urgent for Mu Chengxi. So, she grabbed a small knife nearby and opened the cardboard box.
The moment Wen Xin opened the box, she clearly saw the words Hypnosis Techniques.
Seeing the contents of the box, Wen Xins beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. She didnt need to guess to know what Mu Chengxi was thinking perhaps he was taking precautions, worried she might turn against him someday.
Wen Xin took the books out of the box and neatly ced them on the hallways storage shelf, her eyes narrowing slightly. Her hypnosis had never failed before; even Wei Shisheng, who had studied psychology, fell for her tricks.
She didnt believe Mu Chengxi could resist her hypnosis just by reading these basic books; otherwise, her hypnosis would be rendered ineffective.
After putting things away, Wen Xiny down on the sofa, gazing at the stars scattered in the night sky through the window, her eyes slightly narrowed.
In half a month, the independent enrolment day would arrive, and in twenty days, it would be her birthday. She seemed to be looking forward to that day.
Lost in thought for who knows how long, Wen Xins phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Nan Xu, surprising her. Nan Xu had returned to Continent M ten days ago and hadnt contacted her since. A sudden call today surely wasnt coincidental.
Wen Xin picked up the phone, Why are you calling me?
Nan Xu, theres something here that I think you should know about. The hospital received an order from Pochinki for a liver transnt surgery. Do you know who the patient is?
Today, Nan Xu was organizing documents when she came across information about a person she was scheduled to operate on next week. To her surprise, it turned out to be someone she knew.
A liver transnt? Dont tell me its Geng Qiu? Geng Qiu is in Pochinki? Who took her there?
Wen Xin wasnt too surprised by this news. After the Geng familys incident, she hadnt dealt with their matters, leaving everything to Zhao Honghan and Mu Bei to handle.
By the time she remembered Geng Qiu, she had already disappeared. Wen Xin
had someone investigate Geng Qius whereabouts but found no trace of her.
She hadnt expected Geng Qiu to be hiding in Pochinki.
I dont know who took her, but I know some about her liver source. It was bought from an auction house in Pochinki. Ive already asked Yan Qing to look into it, but we havent received any news yet.
When Nan Xu knew the patient was Geng Qiu, she started investigating this matter. After sorting everything out, she called Wen Xin to inform her.
Okay, I suspect Geng Zewei took Geng Qiu away. You can arrange someone else for this surgery; you dont have to go yourself. Im worried Geng Zewei might recognize you.
Geng Zeweis identity had raised Wen Xins guard. His status within the
Shadow Alliance was enough for him to have the capability to investigate her.
She also knew her identity wasnt something ordinary people could investigate, but she couldnt be too careful. Especially since Geng Zewei dared to make a move against Mu Chengxis people in Continent F, that madman was capable of anything.
Alright, I just wanted to inform you about this. I dont know why Geng Qiu was taken to Pochinki, but maybe its better if this surgery fails. If she recovers, Im worried itll cause trouble for you.
Nan Xu revised the surgical n, contemting whether to let Geng Qiu die on the operating table to avoid future problems. Wen Xin already had enough troubles; if she could handle some for her, she would.
No need, theres no need for her to recover, nor is there a need for her to die. Lets just leave her hanging; let her taste what its like to wish for death. How is Su Li doing now?
Hearing about Geng Qiu, Wen Xin suddenly thought of Su Li, whom she had sent to Continent M. She wondered how Su Li had been faring during this time.
Su Lis mental state isnt very stable. Its unclear whether its an act or a result of emotional breakdown. Ive just returned and havent checked on her yet; Ive only heard about her condition. If you want to know, I can go and confirm her situation for you..
Chapter 389 - 389: Want Ores? Sure, Add Money…
Chapter 389 - 389: Want Ores? Sure, Add Money
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Nan Xu knew Wen Xins indulgence towards Su Li all came from Old Master Sus dying wishes. Wen Xin truly honored those from her past with respect. If it werent for the Geng family and Su Lis excessive actions, she could imagine a bright future for the Geng family.
Unfortunately, even with their favorable conditions, they didnt cherish them and fell from their peak, bing what they are today.
Theres no need. Ever since that day, Grandma never mentioned Su Li again. Just make sure shes well watched; dont let her escape under our watch. If they lose her, dont me me for being ruthless.
Wen Xin half-jokingly spoke, knowing what Continent M was like, but still worried that someone might neglect Su Li, thinking she posed no threat.
Dont worry about it. Chu Yunxuan has already given special instructions. Those people are all trained by her, so her word is effective. There wont be any idents.
Chu Yunxuan had been furious at Su Li for forcing Wen Xin to cut her liver and certainly wouldnt make Su Lis life easy.
After hearing about Chu Yunxuans methods, Nan Xu could only sigh that Su Li was lucky to be alive. If it were anyone else, they probably would have been dead long ago.
Alright, I need to study. Im taking the independent admission exam for Beijing University, so I need to revise what Ive learned. I wont chat anymore; Im hanging up.
Wen Xin didnt wait for Nan Xu to respond and hung up the phone, knowing that if the conversation continued, Nan Xu could talk till it was dark.
Mu Chengxi was sitting in the meeting room of his manor in Continent F, surrounded by heads of various departments. They were all curious about who he was chatting with on his phone.
Master Xi, this is the fifth time the Independent States Elder Council has sent someone over. Are we still not going to meet them?
A man in a ck suit sitting beside Mu Chengxi looked troubled. He didnt understand why Mu Chengxi suddenly ordered a halt to the export of ores to the Independent State half a month ago.
He really couldnt grasp why Mu Chengxi would refuse money that was within reach.
Meet them and renegotiate the price. From now on, raise the price of ores by two percentage points on the original basis. If they dont agree, then refuse to cooperate.
Mu Chengxis slender, pale fingers gently tapped on the table, appearing calm, but the chill in his deep eyes betrayed his seriousness.
Master Xi, the Independent State
The man was troubled, looking at Mu Chengxi. They had already offended the Independent State by cutting off supplies, and raising prices now might seem like adding fuel to the fire.
What about the Independent State? They stille begging for my ores and diamonds, right? If I feel like selling to them, I will; if not, I wont. Whats wrong with raising prices? If they can afford it, buy it; if not, they can go back to their Independent State.
Mu Chengxis tone was not heavy, but everyone could sense his displeasure. They couldnt understand the grudge between Mu Chengxi and the
Independent State.
Ever since Mu Chengxi learned that Wen Xin had been struck by lightning
when she was three years old, he wished he could storm into the Independent State and deal with those elders himself.
At night, when he saw Wen Xin lying in his arms, he couldnt help but think about the Independent States selection process. Any slight deviation, and he would never have met Wen Xin.
Thinking about this always suffocated him. If he didnt cause some trouble for the Independent State, he couldnt calm the anger in his heart.
Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei exchanged nces, thinking that Mu Chengxis behavior was entirely due to Alfredos attitude towards Wen Xin. They even secretly lit a stick of incense for Alfredo and prayed for him.
At this moment, Alfredo, far away in the Independent State, sneezed uncontrobly. He rubbed his somewhat sore nose, wondering why he suddenly felt like he caught a cold. Could it be therge temperature difference between day and night?
Chairman, the gift sent to the Ling family was epted on behalf of Miss Ling
Xuer, but they did not agree to withhold the documents proving Miss Ling Xuers mental health. They stated they could overlook the matter but ultimately wanted justice for Miss Ling Xuer, said the bald man standing in front of Alfredo, his tone somewhat restrained. This was the most undignified task he had taken on in many years.
Another piece of news is that Miss Ling Xuer and the Eldest Miss have a very good rtionship. From Miss Ling Xuers illness to her recovery with psychological treatment, it was all arranged by the Eldest Miss.
After hearing the bald mans report, Alfredo looked up at him, slightly raised his eyebrows, and questioned, Are you sure the person youre referring to is Yatta? Shes not someone who would willingly help others.
I can confirm its the Eldest Miss. The Eldest Miss and Miss Ling Xuer have a special rtionship. Recently, she even helped Miss Ling Xuer arrange schooling at Ice City First High School. Its certain that theyre referring to the Eldest Miss, the bald man said.
As the bald man finished speaking, Alfredos expression darkened. He looked down at the photo of Wen Xin on his desk andughed at himself.
So, she could be kind to anyone but was only unwilling to spare him a nce. Every time he appeared before her, it was always with a cold frown. What had he done wrong?
Forget it. Since Ling Xuer is someone she wants to protect, let the Ling family do whatever they want. Hows Wei Shishengs arm? Alfredo asked.
Weve already arranged for someone from the Independent State Medical Research Institute to go there. The institutes people said Miss Weis shoulder de was severely damaged, and the likelihood of recovery is almost zero, so the people we arranged have already returned, the bald man reported.
Chairman, theres another important matter. The Z countrys base bought some very advanced weapons from Institute 26, including the new weapons just announced on Institute 26s official website. We had a special discussion with Institute 26 about this matter before, but unfortunately, we were rejected, the bald man said, lowering his head, not daring to look at Alfredo.
Previously, weapons from Institute 26 were always first entered into their arsenal, Dut now, ror some unmown reason, Institute 26 suaaen1Yangea Its mind, refusing to cooperate with them and instead turned to coborate with Z country.
Z country bought the weapons? Was there no movement from Continent F and Continent M? Alfredo also couldnt understand why things had developed this way. It seemed like ever since he met Wen Xin, everything had changed. Theres no movement from Continent F. Continent Fs Mu Chengxi has always cooperated with the overlord of Continent F, and theyve never purchase weapons from Institute 26, so this matter does not affect him at all, the bald man exined.
The strangest part is the overlord of Continent F. For some reason, hes been going against us in the Independent State. Previously, the people we sent were all sent back by his men. This time, our people went down again, but the overlord wanted to raise the price of ores. The Elder Council is still discussing
it.

Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Everyone in the Independent State couldnt understand recent events. It seemed that everything had be somewhat tricky since Alfredo got injured.
Fortunately, the Independent State has a strong foundation; otherwise, such matters could indeed cause considerable trouble.
Alfredo pondered over the bald mans words. The only thing he could think of was that Wen Xin must have said something for Mu Chengxi to be so determined to confront the Independent State at any cost.
Go investigate what benefits Mu Chengxi promised the overlord of Continent
F to make him assist Mu Chengxi like this. As for the rare earth minerals from Continent F, lets not worry about them for now. I know the young master of the Shadow Alliance still has around ten billion worth of rare earth minerals in his hands. Purchase them to fill the gap for now.
When they realize sanctions are futile, theylle to cooperate with us willingly!
Alfredo spoke calmly. He wasnt as anxious as the elders council. He believed that in business, one must learn to restrain. Simplypromising and indulging would only embolden those with ill intentions.
Alright, Ill go investigate Continent F now, the bald man received Alfredos order and promptly left to arrange it.
Alfredo was alone in the empty office. He picked up the somewhat aged photo on the desk, furrowing his brows slightly. He didnt know how to make Wen Xin return to her identity, but he wouldnt give up.
While Wen Xin was at home preparing her application for independent enrollment, she suddenly received a video call from Tan Xingyue.
ncing at the time, Wen Xin thought Tan Xingyue should be in ss at this hour. Why would she suddenly call her via video?
Setting down her pen, Wen Xin picked up her phone and answered the video call.
The moment the call connected, the screen was filled with faces. Wen Xin looked at the people on the screen, smiling lightly, and loungedzily on the sofa, watching them.
Little Aunt, long time no see, Ive missed you! Zhao Yuyao, squeezed in the back, was the first to speak. It had been a long time since he saw Wen Xin, and he missed her greatly.
Hi, long time no see. How have you all been?
Sister Xin, weve been doing well.
Sister Xin, youve been in the capital for so long without contacting us. Have you forgotten about us? But its okay; weve already arrived in the capital. I wonder if Sister Xin has time to meet us?
Qin Ling, with his watermelon-like head, was famously unable to keep secrets. The moment he saw Wen Xin, he wanted to tell her that they had arrived in the capital.
His words caught Wen Xins attention. She nced seriously at thendmark building behind them; indeed, it was the iconic building of the capital. She raised her eyebrowszily.
Let Wen Huai take you to Tianxiang Pavilion to wait for me. Ill be there in half an hour.
Seeing their excitement, Wen Xin could tell they had just arrived in the city center and hadnt had lunch yet.
Wen Xin ended the call, entered the cloakroom, changed out of her home clothes, and grabbed a coat that Mu Chengxi had bought her. With her phone in hand, she hurriedly left the house.
As she entered the elevator, Wen Xin encountered her female neighbor from upstairs for the first time. The woman stood in the corner, eyeing Wen Xin up and down with a somewhat unfriendly look.
Are you a resident on the 17th floor? You shouldnt be too young, right? Do you know that as a girl, you should keep yourself clean? Theres no need to attract so many men in and out of your home. It feels unsafe to live in the same building as you!
The woman felt ufortable at the thought of Mu Bei avoiding her. Why should he, the man she liked, fancy her? She should cherish him instead of flirting with so many men every day while Mu Bei was away.
Are you talking about me? Wen Xin was momentarily puzzled by what the woman was saying.
When Mu Chengxi was at home, indeed, many things were going on, and Liang Luoyu and several others often visited their home. But she couldnt understand what the woman meant by unsafe.
Yes, Im talking about you. Just because you have good looks, you think its okay to do things that degrade yourself. Women should have self-respect
Degrade myself? Did you see it? Or is it just your imagination running wild because thats who you are? Wen Xin looked at the woman in front of her with cold eyes. She believed that she had never offended her.
Never mind, I dont want to argue with you. A person who wears see-through outfitste at night and rings someone elses doorbell outside the door, what good habits could they possibly have!
Wen Xin was a bit pressed for time now. She didnt want to keep her ssmates from ss 20 waiting for too long, but she also didnt want this person to continue living here.
ncing at the approaching car, Wen Xin opened the door, got in, didnt even spare a nce at the frustrated woman, and told the driver to leave.
In the car, Wen Xin felt annoyed thinking about what the woman said, but she didnt call Mu Chengxi. Instead, she dialed Mu Beis number directly.
Mu Bei, who was reporting work to Mu Chengxi, suddenly felt his phone vibrate. He picked it up, nced at the caller ID, and quickly answered the call, not daring to be even slightly neglectful.
Miss Wen
Hearing that the call Mu Bei answered was from Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi also looked up from his tablet, looking towards Mu Beis direction.
Okay, I got it. Ill take care of it right away
Before Mu Bei could finish speaking, Wen Xin hung up the phone. Mu Bei looked at the phone in his hand, and his first reaction was that Miss Wen seemed upset
Whats wrong? Mu Chengxi looked at Mu Beisplicated expression. He wondered if something had happened to Wen Xin. When he left the capital, he had specially arranged for someone to stay in Zhi Lan; there shouldnt be any unexpected incidents.
Its someone who upset Miss Wen, the neighbor upstairs. I dont know what she said, but it angered Miss Wen. She asked me to find a way to get rid of her
You go handle it. Dont let those insignificant matters affect her mood. Shes about to take exams soon, under a lot of pressure
Hearing Mu Chengxi say that Wen Xin was under pressure, Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe exchanged a nce. He could believe that Wen Xin might be under pressure, but maybe not for the exams. He felt Wen Xin didnt really care much about the independent enrollment thing.
For Wen Xin, independent enrollment was probably just a formality. With two research institutes in her hands, entering the research institutes directly was no problem, never mind joining Beijing University.
After listening to Mu Chengxis words, Mu Beis reaction was the same as Liang
Luoyus and Gu Yanzhes. He could ept that Miss Wen didnt want to see that woman, but hearing Master Xi say that Miss Wen was under pressure was unbelievable. After Mu Bei left the office, Liang Luoyu stood up and sat down opposite Mu Chengxi..

Master Xi, when are you nning to return to the capital? Things here are mostly sorted out. I heard Ou Jinzhi bought a lot of advanced weapons from
Institute 26. We have time to visit the base and broaden Wen Xins horizons!
When Liang Luoyu connected weapons and Wen Xin, Mu Chengxis first reaction was to recall the incident that happened at the Ancient Market Town dock. He felt it was better for Wen Xin to stay away from such dangerous things.
Not interested. If you like the stuff at Institute 26, I can arrange for you to go there for a few days Mu Chengxi nced at Liang Luoyu, then withdrew his gaze, lowering his head to continue dealing with emails on his tablet.
Master Xi, havent you heard? Institute 26 recently developed a precise strike missile. It can connect to a globalwork and strike urately no matter where the target is. Plus, the coteral damage is minimal.
Liang Luoyu was particrly interested in this technology, but research at Institute 26 was highly ssified, with no trace of information avable.
Master Xi, could you really get me in there? Liang Luoyu looked at Mu Chengxi expectantly, as if he would immediately pack up and leave if Mu Chengxi agreed.
I can get you in, but I dont know if youll make it out alive. Mu Chengxizily nced at Liang Luoyu, his eyes seeming to regard him as foolish.
N-Nothats not what I meant! Master Xi, you
Hurry up and get busy. Return in three days.
With just one week left until Wen Xins independent enrollment exam, he had to stay by her side. So, these days, he was working tirelessly day and night to deal with matters to get them out of the way.
Upon hearing Mu Chengxis words, Liang Luoyu, who was already close to losing his ability to move, stood up with Gu Yanzhes help. He couldnt utter anyints now, resigned to handling his own affairs.
At the entrance of Tianxiang Pavilion, the manager saw the ck Maybach parked outside and hurried out to open the car door for Wen Xin. Miss Wen, is Master Xi not apanying you today?
Seeing that Mu Chengxi wasnt in the car, the hotel manager asked respectfully, worried he hadnt taken good care of her.
Hes not here. Im here to see my ssmates today
Oh, you mean the ssmates Young Master Wen brought? Pleasee with me
Having seen Wen Xin and Wen Huai dining together, the hotel manager naturally understood the rtionship between Wen Xin and the ssmates brought by Wen Huai. So, when Wen Xin mentioned ssmates, the manager immediately thought of those brought by Wen Huai.
Yes, please lead the way, Manager.
Miss Wen, please With a gesture of invitation, the manager led Wen Xin into Tianxiang Pavilion, heading towards the private room where Wen Huai was.
Arriving at the door of the private room, Wen Xin pushed it open and saw more than ten ssmates sitting properly at the dining table, waiting for her arrival.
Seeing such a solemn scene, Wen Xin couldnt help but furrow her brows slightly, feeling somewhat strange about the situation.
What are you all doing?
Sister Xin, weve missed you so much!
After seeing Wen Xin, all theirposure was gone. They rushed towards her, surrounding her, chattering incessantly. Wen Xin couldnt make out what they were saying.
Alright, alright, sit down, one at a time Wen Xin raised her hand to rub her slightly aching ears, pointed to the seats next to the table, and asked them to sit down and calm down before speaking.
Sister Xin, the teachers knew we wereing to see you and asked us to bring you a few words. They said you must write yourpositions well in Chinese, and also in Physics
Gu Yifei ryed the teachers instructions to Wen Xin one by one. As she reached the end, Gu Yifei suddenly paused, looking at Wen Xin with some difficulty.
Um Sister Xin they also said that even if you dont do well in the exams, the schools gates will always be open for you. Theyre waiting for you toe back and continue your studies
Towards the end, Gu Yifeis voice grew quieter. She knew that what she was saying might seem inappropriate, but she also didnt want to hide thest part.
Oh, what are you saying? We came here to cheer you up, not to add pressure.
Sister Xin, just do your best in the exams. Were waiting for your good news. Yeah, Sister Xin, dont you know your own abilities? You can do anything!
Sister Xin, wait for me at Beijing University. Even if I cant get in, Ill definitelye to study in the capital. By then, well still be in the same city!
Thats right, Sister Xin, my dad is reporting to the capital next month. Ill definitelye to study in the capital too. I already ranked in the top 500 in the monthly exam this time. You dont know, I made Chu Jie so angry, but shes not as arrogant as before.
Respectfully, Zhao Yuyao handed Wen Xin a cup of tea. He had a lot to say to her but also understood the nature of the asion, so he refrained from saying too much.
Ill wait for you all in the capital. After your college entrance exams, Ill treat you to a feast in Ice City!
Today, Wen Xin was very happy. Her demeanor while talking to them was rxed,zily sitting in her seat, leaning against the backrest, not much different from her previous school days.
Atter chatting with them tor a while, Wen Xin asked the waiter to bring the menu and start ordering. Then she turned her head and hooked Tian Xingyues chair with her foot, pulling her to her side.
She draped her arm over Tian Xingyues shoulder, sping the back of her neck with her slender fingers, gently pinching her cheek. Have you missed me?
Wen Xins voice was somewhat husky, sounding tempting to everyones ears. Tian Xingyue responded with a sweet smile, her smiling eyes forming crescents, looking very sweet.
Of course, Ive missed you. But I receive gifts from you every day, so I feel like youve been by my side all along.
Hearing Tian Xingyue mention gifts, Wen Xin narrowed her eyes slightly. She did send Tian Xingyue some snacks and daily necessities, but gifts every day?
She didnt remember doing that.
Sister Xin, the milk candy you gave Sister Xingyue is delicious! I asked my uncle to buy me some, but he said that brand isnt from the capital. Did Uncle Chengxi buy it for you?
Ling Xuer sat beside Wen Xin, feeling a little lost seeing Wen Xin and Tian Xingyue sitting so intimately together. She felt sidelined with Tian Xingyue around, but she still smiled brightly because Tian Xingyue treated her well too, and she liked her a lot.
Milk candy? What milk candy? Show me?

Chapter 392 - 392: Special Care From Liang Luoyu
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Wen Xin didnt like the overly sweet taste of milk candy; she only enjoyed the choctes that Mu Chengxu bought for her. As for milk candy, she really wasnt very familiar with it.
This is it! Ling Xuer was somewhat puzzled. Wasnt this milk candy the one she bought for Tan Xingyue?
Wen Xin took the milk candy handed to her by Ling Xuer, ced it on the table, and took a photo to send to Mu Chengxu. Soon, Chengxu replied to her message.
Isnt this the milk candy that Liang Luoyu bought for Tan Xingyue? He wanted to send you some, but I told him you dont like it, so he decided to buy choctes for you. Did you also receive the milk candy?
No, its because Xingyue and Xuer came to the capital. They asked me where to buy milk candy. Can you tell Liang Luoyu to send some to Xuer next time he sends them? Xuer likes them.
Alright, well be back in three days!
Yeah, Ill wait for you toe home.
Wen Xin returned the milk candy to Ling Xuer and gently pinched her cheek with her fingertips, smiling indulgently, Are you still used to sleeping in my bed?
Yeah, very used to it. Ive packed all your things in the suitcase for you, sis.
Good girl. Wen Xin smiled softly at Ling Xuers affection, Liang Luoyu bought the milk candy. Ive already asked Mu Chengxu to let him know to send you some next time.
Thank you, sis! Ling Xuer felt that Wen Xins affection for her was no less than that for Tan Xingyue, and her smile was particrly sweet.
After chatting and finishing lunch in a lively atmosphere, it was already two oclock in the afternoon. After asking about their ns for the rest of the day, Wen Xin arranged a hotel for them to stay in, allowing them to y here for the day before returning to Ice City.
As the group walked out of the private room at Tianxiang Pavilion, they coincidentally bumped into another group of peopleing out of the opposite room. Wen Xin nced at the person at the front, and he also happened to be looking straight at her.
Wen Xin hesitated for about thirty seconds, then with a cold expression, she nodded slightly at Wei Yi and spoke with a hint of humility in her tone, Grandfather.
Upon hearing Wen Xin take the initiative to greet him, Wei Yis face lit up with a bright smile. He introduced Wen Xins identity to his old friends behind him.
One of them nced at Wen Xin and disdainfully remarked, So shes your grandsons girlfriend. She sounds so affectionate when she speaks to you. I thought she was your youngest daughters child!
As the words fell, Wei Yis expression suddenly darkened, and everyone knew that his youngest daughter was a taboo topic for him. Yet this person still brought it up without any tact.
Seeing Wei Yis unpleasant expression, everyone around tactfully fell silent, not daring to say anything more behind Wei Yis back.
Zhao Yuyao, standing behind Wen Xin, cast a cold nce at the people around her and finally fixed her gaze on the person who had just mentioned his mother.
He took a step forward, stood calmly in front of Wei Yi, and spoke in a cold tone, Whats the matter? Im the child of your youngest daughter. Do you have any business with me?
Zhao Yuyaos sudden remark surprised the ssmates from ss 20; they thought Zhao Yuyao was going to speak up for Wen Xin. Just as they were about to remind him that this was the capital and it was better not to cause trouble, they didnt expect him to speak up for his mother instead.
Wei Yi heard Zhao Yuyaos words, raised his head suddenly, and looked at Zhao Yuyao with some disbelief as if he wanted to ask what Zhao Yuyao meant.
But considering the people behind him who were watching themotion, Wei Yi pretended to be calm and looked at Zhao Yuyao, speaking in a quiet tone, When did youe to the capital? Youre already in the capital, and you didnt even bother to call me?
Zhao Yuyao turned his head to look at Wei Yi, politely addressing, then calmly answered Wei Yis question.
I arrived a little after eleven in the morning. I came with my ssmates. We were treated to lunch by my sister-inw, and were nning to stroll around.
If theres nothing urgent, Grandfather, well be leaving now.
Zhao Yuyao respectfully addressed Wei Yi, nced at his ssmates behind him, lifted his chin, gesturing for them to follow, and then took the lead in leaving Tianxiang Pavilion.
The students from ss 20 realized that the atmosphere wasnt right and remained silent, following behind Zhao Yuyao as they left.
Wen Xin stood still without moving, her dark eyes faintly ncing at the meddlesome person, then she turned to Wei Yi, Grandfather, Ill take my ssmates for a stroll. Well leave now.
Okay, take care on the way
Wen Xin nodded lightly, expressionless, and left Tianxiang Pavilion.
After Wen Xin and her group left, the elderly people behind Wei Yi also bid farewell to him and left Tianxiang Pavilion.
Sitting in the car, Wen Xi looked at the group of people waiting for a car on the opposite side of the road. Among them, Zhao Yuyao stood out as the most outstanding besides Wen Huai. This young man resembled her daughter so much that her heart skipped a beat when he addressed him as Grandfather.
Investigate whether that boy is rted to Wei Mantong. If he is, find out when he has the time to bring him to the Wei family. His parents might be irresponsible, but he seems responsible. I like this kid.
Yes, Ill take care of it.
The butler immediately responded. He knew that Wei Yi had always been concerned about Wei Mantong, but Wei Mantongs stubborn personality made it so that she hadnt returned to Beijing since leaving.
In the evening, after dinner, Wen Xin escorted Tan Xingyue back to the hotel. She decided to stay overnight with Tan Xingyue in the hotel.
Outside the hotel, Wen Xin asked Tan Xingyue to go up first while she waited in the lobby for Zhao Yuyao. She had some things she wanted to discuss with him.
When Zhao Yuyao got out of the car, his mood wasnt particrly good. He had spent the whole afternoon thinking about Wei Yis affairs, unsure if what he did in the afternoon was right or wrong.
When Zhao Yuyao saw Wen Xin in the lobby, he was somewhat surprised. After saying a word to his ssmates, he walked to her.
Little Grandaunt, youre still here?
I was waiting for you. You seemed distracted today; what happened? Wen Xinzily sat on the sofa. After a whole day of strolling around, she was a bit tired.
I just felt like I might have done something wrong this afternoon. I shouldnt have spoken up, but when I heard someone deliberately mentioning my mother and mocking you, I couldnt help but get angry. I couldnt control myself for a moment.
Zhao Yuyao scratched his head awkwardly as he finished speaking. He felt that he shouldnt have spoken out, which might bring trouble to his mother after all. He wasnt fully aware of what happened in the past.
In fact, you did nothing wrong. Aunty will return to Beijing sooner orter.
You took the initiative to speak, giving Grandfather face. You did well..

Wen Xin looked at Zhao Yuyao and nodded slightly. She didnt mention to Zhao Yuyao that she nned to stay overnight with Tan Xingyue at the hotel. Instead, shezily waved her hand at Zhao Yuyao, indicating for him to go up first.
Also, today, the Wei familys housekeeper found Mu Chengxi and wanted him to talk to you, to bring you back to the Wei family. However, Mu Chengxi refused. He said that if theres anything, you should discuss it with Youngest Aunt. Youre younger and dont need to involve yourself in adult matters.
Mu Chengxi didnt want to put Zhao Yuyao in a difficult position, so there were some things that simply didnt need to bother him.
Upon hearing that Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi were considering his feelings, Zhao Yuyaos restless feelingspletely disappeared, and he immediately reverted to his innocent, boyish demeanor.
Little Aunt, theres nothing else. Im heading upstairs now. Our flight is in the morning. If youre busy, you dont need toe to see me off. Ling Xuer said her family will arrange for us to be taken to the airport.
After Zhao Yuyao left, the Wei family butler approached from the side. Wen Xin gave the butler a faint nce.
Butler Wei, hes still a child. What he did today was already at his limit. I hope Grandfather wont make things difficult for him anymore.
Wen Xin sat up straight and poured a cup of tea for the butler, her tone calm and neutral, devoid of any emotion.
Miss Wens reminder is valid. Indeed, the Young Master should not be troubled over this matter. Ill exin it to the Old Master when I return home. Actually, the Old Master has always been concerned about Third Miss, but unfortunately, Third Miss temperament is too stubborn. Theres nothing we can do
The butler looked at Wen Xin, his voice low as he grumbled. He had followed closely beside Old Master Wei for a long time and could tell that Old Master Wei
was truly happy today.
Butler, its gettingte. You should go back and inform Grandfather. Uncle Zhao shoulde to Beijing to report on his work next month You understand what I mean, right?
Wen Xin didnt want to meddle in Wei family affairs, but for the sake of the old mans face, she still revealed a little information, allowing him to consider how to handle this matter on his own.
Thank you, Miss Wen. Miss Wen, do you need me to escort you home? Itste, and you going home alone, wouldnt Seventh Young Master worry?
The butler was a very tactful person. Given that Wen Xin provided him with information, he naturally wouldnt let Wen Xin go home alone. At the very least, he should politely inquire.
No need. Thank you for your kind offer, Butler Wei. You probably noticed earlier that some of my female ssmates are also in this hotel. I wont be going home tonight. Ill arrange to send them to the airport tomorrow. Butler Wei, please go back first.
Although Wen Xin had a cold personality, she still maintained the necessary politeness. Out of respect for Mu Chengxi, she showed some deference to the Wei family butler.
Then, Miss Wen, rest early. Well take our leave.
Watching the Wei family butler leave, Wen Xin took the elevator upstairs and entered Tan Xingyues room.
At this time, Tan Xingyue had finished washing up and was lying in bed, video chatting with her grandmother. When her grandmother saw Wen Xin, her eyes brightened, and she smiled kindly at Wen Xin, waving her hand.
Xingyue said you have exams in a week. Are you preparing to go to university?
Will you study medicine or music?
Neither. Im going to the Physics Department to fulfill the dreams that my father and Uncle Tan didnt fulfill. Wen Xin looked at Yang Jingyans healthyplexion and felt that she was in good condition at the moment.
Hearing Wen Xins answer, Jingyans dim eyes shed with a hint of worry. Xinxin, that major is too dangerous. Think carefully about it. Its better for girls to study medicine, especially with your medical skills. Without you, Grandma might have
Grandma, dont say that. You will definitely see Xingyue get married. You need to take care of yourself!
Wen Xin didnt like to hear Yang Jingyans words. Even though she knew Jingyans health was at its limit, she hoped Jingyan would live well.
Xinxin, Grandma just hopes you and Xingyue will be safe and sound, living an ordinary life. Theres no need to Yang Jingyans voice trailed off, her experience of seeing loved ones depart weighing heavily on her, understanding the true dangers involved.
Grandma, dont worry. We will be fine. You dont need to worry. Wen Xin smiled at Yang Jingyan and then gently rubbed Tan Xingyues head. You continue chatting with Grandma. Ill go take a shower and then check your arm.
Okay Tan Xingyue sweetly replied and resumed chatting with Yang Jingyan, diverting her attention.
When Wen Xin came out of the shower, Tan Xingyue had already hung up. She sat on the bed, watching Wen Xin walk out of the bathroom.
Wen Xin had slept in the same bed with Tan Xingyue since she was little. She climbed onto the bed and pinched Tan Xingyues cheek. Hmm, it seems like Liang Luoyu has been taking good care of you. Your cheeks are plumper now!
No way, I always thought those deliveries were from you If I had known it was him
Tan Xingyue paused here, and Wen Xin squinted at her, waiting for her to continue.
Oh, you I dont know!
Tan Xingyues cheeks turned crimson, and she dared not look into Wen Xins eyes. She wasnt deliberately hiding it from Wen Xin. In fact, she didnt understand why Liang Luoyu was so good to her either.
Seeing Tan Xingyues bashful look, Wen Xin lifted her legs slightly and rested her arms on her knees, her movementszy.
I dont quite understand Liang Luoyus intentions towards you either. Just control your feelings, and dont let him lead you astray. Focus on studying for now. We can discuss other matters when youre older
Wen Xin raised her hand and flicked the stray hair away from Tan Xingyues forehead. She didnt know how to talk to Tan Xingyue about this matter, considering Liang Luoyus ambiguous attitude of being proactive yet not confessing. In matters of love, she was clueless too.
Tan Xingyue looked at Wen Xin, who suddenly became serious, and couldnt help but chuckle. She held Wen Xins hand. Dont worry about me. There are some things I understand too. I wont let myself get hurt.
Wen Xin suddenly looked up at Tan Xingyue. It seemed she was too worried about her, thinking that she was the same as herself and not good at rtionships
In fact, Tan Xingyue had already grown up when she wasnt paying attention.
Wen Xin reached out and hugged Tan Xingyue, leaning against Tan Xingyues ear and speaking softly, Theres still half a year. Think about what you want to study and where you want to go. Ill support you in everything!
In the blink of an eye, the pitiful little girl who used to hide behind her for protection had grown up. She was very happy, feeling that bringing Tan Xingyue to Ice City for school was the right decision.
The next morning, Wen Xin rode in Ling Yichens car and sent the students from ss 20 to the airport. On the way, Ling Yichen expressed his gratitude to Wen Xin and also mentioned the arrangements for Alfredo to apologize to the Ling family. Wen Xin just responded lightly..
Chapter 394 - 394: I Won ‘t Acknowledge The Marriage Agreement With Alfredo
Chapter 394 - 394: I Won t Acknowledge The Marriage Agreement With Alfredo
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Seeing that Wen Xin didnt show much interest in the matter, Ling Yichen didnt initiate any conversation with her again. He just continued driving quietly.
As Wen Xin entered the airport, she could see an elegantdy standing beside Wen Huai from a distance. Her temples throbbed slightly. She could guess that Wen Zhimo had appeared here mainly because she was waiting for her.
The timing of ss 20s arrival at the airport was just right. They began boarding shortly after entering. After casually exchanging a few words with Tan Xingyue, Wen Xin let them proceed with boarding while she stood watching them leave.
When the students from ss 20 had left, Ling Yichen walked over to Wen Xins side and stood half a step behind her. He spoke calmly, Ill take you back.
No need. Someone is waiting for me. Wen Xin withdrew her gaze, ncing in the direction of Wen Zhimo. She knew Wen Zhimo probably had something to discuss with her.
Following Wen Xins gaze, Ling Yichen also looked over. He had already heard about the sibling rtionship between Wen Huai and Wen Xin. He spected that the woman walking towards them probably had a significant rtionship with Wen Xin as well, so he didnt want to disturb them further.
Well then, Miss Wen, take care. Ill head back now.
Thank you, Ling Yicheng Ling.
Wen Xin and Ling Yichen had only met a few times, so their rtionship wasnt that close.
After he left, Wen Zhimo approached Wen Xins side, her tone somewhat incredulous as she spoke, Are you familiar with the four major families of Beijing?
Not really. Im not very familiar with him. I just know him. Auntie is specifically waiting for me at the airport. Youre not going to ask about my rtionship with the four major families, are you?
Wen Xinzily put her hands in the pockets of her coat, her dark eyes fixed on Wen Zhimo, as if she wanted to see through her.
The other day at the Ou family, I unintentionally embarrassed you with a few words. It was my fault. Ive been wanting to apologize to you, but I didnt have your contact information Im sorry.
Wen Xin was somewhat surprised that Wen Zhimo, who usually couldnt stand her, would apologize to her. Her cold expression softened slightly.
Its not your fault. Back then, when you wanted to take me back to Beijing, I refused. Staying voluntarily in Ancient Town Square was my choice. You were right; I really am from a small ce.
Wen Xins feelings towards Wen Zhimo were somewhatplicated. She could harbor hostility towards everyone from Independent State, but towards Wen Zhimo, she felt genuine gratitude.
However, sometimes the barrier between the two was insurmountable, leading to Wen Xins rejection and distance from her.
Lets talk somewhere else
Wen Zhimo looked at Wen Xin withplexity. Wen Xins position in Beijing was something she had never expected. Because of this, she felt it would be even more difficult for her to persuade Wen Xin to return and take over
Independent State.
Moreover, in half a month, she would turn neen. She didnt know how long Alfredo could continue to hold on to her, or how long the Elders Council would tolerate her.
What worried Wen Zhimo the most was that Wen Xin was actually together with Mu Chengxi. Who was Mu Chengxi? The Crown Prince of Beijing, but also the most unconventional person in Beijing.
Upon entering the car, Wen Xin didnt ask where they were going. Since she got into the car with Wen Zhimo, she tacitly agreed to let Wen Zhimo take her away. She could ept wherever they were going.
Wen Zhimo frowned as she looked at Wen Xin, who didnt nce at her. Wen Xin lowered her head, casually replying to messages on her phone. Among them was the message from Nan Xu confirming Geng Qius whereabouts in Pochinki.
Suddenly, Wen Xins phone vibrated. She nced at the caller ID, gently sliding to answer the call.
Wen Xin, I just heard that Chengxi isnt home, and youre the only one at Zhi
Lan. Grandma asked me if you want to stay at the old mansion for a few days? You can go back when Chengxi returns to Beijing. Grandma is worried that youre alone and might not like it. Auntie Fu went to buy seafood. Chengxi said you like seafood.
Mu Chengxu blocked Wen Xins refusal as soon as she spoke. The seafood she liked was already specially prepared. How could she refuse?
Okay, Ill probablye over in the afternoon. Im busy with something outside right now. Although Wen Xins voice was still cold, a hint of softness could be discerned. This was already the greatest courtesy Wen Xin could extend to someone.
Okay, give me a call when youe in the afternoon. Ill arrange for someone to pick you up
Mu Chengxu sounded a little excited upon hearing Wen Xins agreement. They all liked Wen Xin very much, but hearing from Mu Chengxi that Wen Xin was busy preparing for exams, they hadnt disturbed her.
No need. Chengxi left a driver for me when he left Beijing. I can take the car back by myself.
After chatting with Mu Chengxi for a while, Wen Xin reluctantly hung up.
Sitting next to Wen Xin, Wen Zhimo had been watching her all along. When
Wen Xin finished speaking, she coughed lightly, her voice gentle as she spoke, Was the person who just called from the Mu family?
Yes, Chengxis sister Wen Xin propped her headzily against the car door, her attitudezy and casual.
Seeing Wen Xins attitude change drastically from before, Wen Zhimo felt irritated. The anger surged up in her heart instantly.
Look at you, whats with that attitude? Youre so impatient to talk to me, but when talking to someone from the Mu family, youre so polite. Wen Xin, Im your aunt, not an unrted person.
Wen Xin raised her eyes lightly, casting a faint smile. If you werent my aunt, youd be an irrelevant person. Do you think Id be sitting next to you?
Just say directly what you want to talk to me about. We dont need to beat around the bush. Also, dont try to calcte when Ill return to Independent Ind. I wont go back now, and as for Alfredos matter, you dont need to persuade me. Ive already epted the Mu familys engagement. I wont acknowledge the engagement with Independent State.
Wen Xin didnt wait for Wen Zhimo to speak. She directly addressed the issues Wen Zhimo wanted to discuss. She wouldntpromise with them. She didntpromise when she didnt have the ability before, and now that she had control, she wouldntpromise either.
Seeing Wen Xins stubborn appearance, Wen Zhimo could see her mother in her. Her mother was like this, unwilling topromise in the slightest, which eventually led to disaster.
Cant you be a bit more amodating? Have you forgotten the hardships you endured at Independent State when you were young?
Wen Zhimo didnt want Wen Xin to be so stubborn. She believed that in Beijing, the Mu family had the absolute power to protect Wen Xin.. But outside of Beijing, could Mu Chengxi really protect Wen Xin?

Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
If you listen to Auntie, justpromise a bit. When you gain control of Independent State, you can do whatever you want. Maybe Alfredo is a more suitable person for you than Mu Chengxi?
In Wen Zhimos eyes, perhaps only Alfredo could protect Wen Xin from harm.
Everything she did was about hoping that Wen Xin wouldnt repeat the mistakes of her parents.
After listening to Wen Zhimos words, Wen Xin suddenlyughed. She turned her head, her dark eyes looking very serious as she gazed at Wen Zhimo.
Auntie, you grew up in Independent State, and you understand the power hierarchy of Independent State better than I do. Just because I be the executive director of Independent State doesnt mean I can control the power of Independent State. Those elders wont allow their power to be taken away by anyone.
If the CEO of Independent State really has absolute control, would my father secretly take my mother to Beijing when he found out she was pregnant? Later, my father held two major research institutes and had research data second only to that of the Independent State Research Institute. But what happened? He still died at the hands of those peoples schemes.
Auntie, Independent State is a wolfsir. I wont be the puppet they want. I wontpromise with them in any way. Until I have control over everything, I wont return to Independent State!
As for Alfredo, he he is indeed very good to me, but in front of power, he cannot give up everything for me. He will weigh the pros and cons in my matters.
But Mu Chengxi wont. Mu Chengxi will give up everything for me. Simrly, I wont let him lose.
After Wen Xin finished speaking, the car stopped outside a mansion. Wen Xin looked at the mansion, her eyes somewhatplicated.
In a ce like Beijing, wherend was precious, having such a magnificent mansion could also show how great the owner of this mansion was.
You, the Little Master, havente back for so long. Go home and take a look. Butler Wen has always been thinking of you. If you cane back, hell be very happy.
Wen Xin sat in the car without moving. She just quietly looked at the mansion in the distance. Everything in the mansion hadnt changed, exactly the same as her memory of home.
However, things have changed. She was no longer the innocent and mischievous little girl from before. The loving couple and the parents who loved her had long gone to heaven.
Madam Ma The butler saw Wen Zhimos car stop outside the mansions gate, but Wen Zhimo didnt get out of the car. He hurried over, not knowing what had happened.
When the butler saw Wen Xin, who looked exactly like thete Madam and
Wen Huai, he became extremely excited.
Miss Miss Mrs. Ma Is this Is this the Young Miss?!
Wen Xin looked at the butler, whose emotions were surging, and opened the car door. She got out of the car and spoke with a calm and cold voice, Butler Wen.
Its really Yong Miss, its really Young Miss! Miss, youve finallye back
The butler looked at Wen Xin, tears streaming down his face. He knew that
Young Miss had always been alive, but she had never returned. Now, finally, she hade back.
Wen Xin stood still, silent. She looked at the butlers excited emotions and didnt know what to say. She felt a little sour in her heart.
Lets go, go inside and take a look. Wen Zhimo patted Wen Xins shoulder, walking in front of Wen Xin and leading her into the mansion.
More than ten years had passed, and the courtyard of the mansion had not changed much. The small golf course her father liked was still there, her mothers favorite ss greenhouse was still there, and the swing she used to y on as a child was still there.
Walking past the swimming pool, through the corridors, and past the ss greenhouse where the family often sat together to watch the stars, memories shed through Wen Xins mind.
Eldest Miss, youve finallye back. The decorations and furnishings in the house are exactly the same as when Madam was here, unchanged. We were afraid you might not adapt when you returned.
You dont live here? Wen Xin listened to the butlers words, looking puzzled as she nced at Wen Zhimo walking beside her.
Wen Zhimo naturally noticed Wen Xins surprise. She shook her head lightly and said, No, this house is managed by Butler Wen and some servants. Ma
Wenyuan and I, along with your younger siblings, live in another estate nearby. Dont you remember? When I came to see you back then, your father also bought this piece ofnd and built another estate for me?
Wen Xin had no memory of what Wen Zhimo said. She only met Wen Zhimo during her special training on Independent State and didnt know much about her before that.
Entering the living room, it felt somewhat cold, probably because there was no one living there.
Miss, your room is still the same as before. Now that youvee back, let me know if you need any changes. Ill arrange for decorators to renovate your room. Little Masters room has already been renovated.
The butler looked at Wen Xin, who sat down in the living room, his excitement causing his words to be somewhat incoherent. He was extremely happy that Wen Xin had finally returned.
Wen Xin looked at the butler, instinctively wanting to refuse. Wen Zhimo also understood her meaning and spoke gently, This is your home, the only ce with traces of your parents. Dont think about refusing. Make time toe back often. Since you dont n to go back to that ce, you cant abandon this ce either, right?
Wen Zhimos words made Wen Xin silent for a moment. Then she said calmly, Then just renovate it in the current style. I dont need a princess room; a simple style will do.
Wen Xin had no princess sentiments, and she didnt fancy those pink and tender things. She even felt a little scared of them, so there was no need to bother herself with them.
Okay, Ill arrange itter. Miss, its almost lunchtime. What would you like to
I want to eat
The scene of the butler asking what she wanted to eat reminded Wen Xin of when she was five years old, hiding in her parents study to read. The butler tracked her upstairs, asking kindly and patiently what she wanted to eat.
Lets have chestnut duck and a serving of stewedmb chops. Ive been away for so many years, Ive never dared to eat these things outside.
Chestnut duck was her fathers favorite, and stewedmb chops were her mothers favorite. As a child, she couldnt eat these things because of her poor teeth. Now, she wanted to taste what her parents loved.
After hearing Wen Xins choice of dishes, the butlers emotions, which had just stabilized, became excited again. He wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and said, Ill go and have the kitchen prepare now
After the butler left, Wen Zhimo picked up a cup of tea from the coffee table and took a sip, looking at Wen Xin with gentle eyes.
Since youre unwilling to go back to Independent State and your uncle said youre going to the physics department at Beijing University, then take over the research institute. With the research institute and the support of the Mu family, you should be able to be safe..

Chapter 396 - 396: Even Ma Wenyuan Doesnt Dare to Say That

The Research Institute belongs to Wen Huai. Im studying physics for my own reasons, not to take over the Research Institute. Uncle and some other uncles have been managing the Research Institute very well. Aunt, dont you n to let me meet my younger siblings?
Wen Xin didnt want to continue discussing this issue with Wen Zhimo. Rarely did they have a chance to talk calmly, and she didnt want to ruin the atmosphere. She had her own arrangements and didnt need to exin everything to Wen Zhimo.
Alright, youve had your own ideas since you were young. Ill go pick up your younger siblings from home. You can wander around here. Dont forget, this is your home.
Wen Zhimo couldnt persuade Wen Xin, so she pondered in her heart. She would have to think of another way. She stood up and left the mansion.
The Wen family had no family power at all, but the Ma family was different. Ma Wenyuan was the legitimate heir of that big family. After the Wen familys parents passed away, Ma Wenyuan took over the management of the two majorboratories, effectively recing Wen Zhimos position in Independent
State.
Originally a middle-ss family, the Ma family flourished and sessfully reced the Wen familys position, bing the fifthrgest family in Beijing.
Of course, the Ma family had some background to begin with, and this could not be denied.
About twenty minutester, Wen Zhimo came back with four people. Among them was a girl who looked very arrogant, giving off an air of disdain.
At first nce, Wen Xin found this girl very disagreeable, and the girl, upon seeing her, also frowned unhappily, apparently not having any good feelings towards her.
Aunt, is she
Shes Wen Huais sister You should be in the same grade. Youll both be going to Beijing University in the future, so get to know each other and take care of each other in the future.
Wen Xin, this is your aunts niece. Get to know each other
Wen Xin sat still, her gaze coldly sweeping over the girl. She nodded slightly, giving her face by greeting her.
Chen Yunchu had grown up in everyones palms since childhood taken care of and protected by everyone since she was a child. Even at school, everyone who knew her identity treated her with great respect. This was the first time she had encountered such arrogance and rudeness.
However, in front of Wen Zhimo, Chen Yunchu restrained her temper. Although she was angry, she didntsh out on the spot.
She sat down opposite Wen Xin without any courtesy, looking her up and down. She was impressed by Wen Xins outstanding appearance, feeling that this girls appearance posed a great threat to her.
Wen Zhimo also felt that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward at this moment. She pulled her three children over and introduced them to Wen Xin. These are my children. This is Ma Ruizhe, this is Ma Ruixue, and this is the youngest brother, Ma Ruiyan. This is your sister.
Sister, youre so beautiful Ma Ruixue was very lively. When she saw Wen Xin for the first time, she was immediately attracted by her beauty. This was her first time seeing Wen Xin, and she really liked the beautiful sister in front of her.
Ma Ruixue pulled her hand out of Wen Zhimos hand and ran excitedly to Wen Xins side, sitting down beside her.
Although she was a little shy, she felt happy to be able to admire a beauty like this up close.
The youngest brother also ran to Wen Xins side. He was even more open and directly hugged Wen Xins arm. Sister, Ive seen you. I saw you in Wen Huais photo album. He told me youre my sister
The six-year-old boy hugged Wen Xins arm affectionately and coquettishly,pletely unreserved.
Wen Xin had a cold personality and felt a bit overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the children. However, she didnt show any impatience.
Suddenly, she remembered something and took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket, which had been stuffed into her coat by Tan Xingyue. She gave them to the children.
With thest piece of candy, Chen Yunchu thought Wen Xin would give it to her. She was thinking about how to coldly refuse it in her mind.
However, not only did Wen Xin not give it to her, she even peeled off the candy and stuffed it into her mouth without even looking at her.
The moment Wen Xin took out the candy, Chen Yunchu recognized the brand of the candy. She had eaten it once before and knew that this candy was not avable in Beijing. She had never been able to buy it.
Sister, this candy is so delicious
If its delicious, next time, sister will bring you some. Wen Xin gently pinched Ma Ruiyans cheek with her hand raised, feeling that this boy who looked like Uncle Ma was quite cute.
After lunch, Wen Xin didnt stay. She still had to visit Zhuge Jingmings clinic, and then she had to go to the Mu familys old house. It seemed like time was running out.
Ill have the driver take you. Its not easy to get a taxi here.
Okay Wen Xin knew it was difficult to get a taxi here and didnt refuse Wen Zhimos kindness. She didnt want to waste time.
Seeing that Wen Xin didnt refuse her, Wen Zhimo happily went out to make a phone call.
Chen Yunchu looked at Wen Xin, her fox-like eyes revealing a smile. She walked to Wen Xins side and casually spoke.
I thought only Wen Huai was living under someone elses roof. I didnt expect a wild girl from the countryside to also be living under someone elses roof. I really dont know if you people have any self-respect. Dont you know that living under someone elses roof is not only difficult but also troublesome? My uncles house is not a shelter.
A shelter?
When Wen Xin heard her mention Wen Huai living under someone elses roof, she couldnt control the resentment in her heart.
She knew that Ma Wenyuan and Wen Zhimo treated Wen Huai as their own child, but she never expected an outsider to think of Wen Huai as living under someone elses roof.
Wen Xin turned her head and smiled coldly, danger flickering in her bright eyes, as she disdainfully spoke.
Go back and find out who Wen Huai is. Even Ma Wenyuan wouldnt dare say such things here. Also, find out why the Ma family has its current status.
Wen Xin withdrew her gaze with a cold attitude, her tone carrying a warning.
I wont hold it against you today, but next time, if I hear you say something like this about Wen Huai again, dont me me for not being polite to you!
Chen Yunchu was shocked by Wen Xins strong aura. She couldnt believe that Wen Xin would directly call out her uncles name like that. Wasnt that extremely impolite?
She had heard about Wen Xins background, only knowing that Wen Xin had grown up in a poor town, but she never expected her to have such a strong aura.
Miss, these are some snacks that I especially had the kitchen prepare. You used to love these snacks when you were a child. Could you leave me a contact method? Even if you donte back, I can still prepare some snacks and things you like to eat and send them to you
The butler really didnt want Wen Xin to leave. Since Wen Xin came back, he felt that the whole mansion had regained its vitality..

The joyous moments turned out to be so short-lived, and now it was time for Wen Xin to leave again
Wen Xin took out her phone and opened the WeChat app to add a friend. Uncle Wen, lets exchange WeChat contacts. Ill send you my contact information and my current address.
After adding the butler as a friend, Wen Xin took the items prepared by the butler. She retracted the coldness in her eyes and swept her gaze across the manor.
Uncle Wen, please have my room cleaned up earlier. Ill be back with Wen Huai for New Years Eve. Lets celebrate the New Year together.
Wen Xins words shocked the butler so much that he nodded repeatedly. He had finally waited for the Eldest Miss and the Little Master to return homeThe Wen Family was back.
Just as Wen Xin entered Zhuge Jingmings clinic, the clinic staff recognized her immediately. Yan Lin saw Wen Xin and promptly invited her into the clinic. Miss Wen, Master said that everything you asked for is ready. Let me take you in.
Wen Xin nodded and walked into the treatment room ahead of Yan Lin, who followed respectfully behind.
Upon entering the treatment room, Wen Xin saw a person standing behind Zhuge Jingming, holding silver needles, but hesitating to use them.
Grandmaster, why dont I get my master toe? The acupoints youre targeting are too tricky. Im afraid
The man looked nervously at Zhuge Jingming, worried that he might identally hurt him with the needles.
Martial Uncle Yan Lin, your timing is perfect. Master said his shoulders feel weak and asked me to administer acupuncture. You know I specialize in integrated Chinese and Western medicine, and Im not very proficient in acupuncture Im afraid
The man looked at Yan Lin in distress. He hade to help, but being asked to administer acupuncture right after arriving, especially to Zhuge Jingming, was a daunting task.
Seeing the mans cautious demeanor, Wen Xin narrowed her eyes. What? Is this what the Green Physician Sect hase to? Are there still people who dont know acupuncture?
The Green Physician Sect was renowned for its acupuncture techniques, which had remained unchallenged in the medical field for many years.
And yet, there were still people who couldnt perform acupuncturea truly surprising phenomenon, wasnt it?
Wen ah Miss Wen, please take a look. Since yesterday, my arm has been difficult to lift, and moving my neck causes severe pain. Could you please help me
Zhuge Jingming had known when Wen Xin entered, but he hesitated to speak, fearing he might startle the person behind him.
Wen Xin put her phone in her pocket and gave Zhuge Jingming a casual nce.
She then took three needles from the needle box.
With skillful hands, she unpacked the acupuncture needles without checking Zhuge Jingmings meridians, and casually inserted the three needles into his body.
Instantly, a tingling sensation spread throughout Zhuge Jingmings body, and his expression became somewhat strange.
Master, are you are you alright? Yan Lin walked worriedly to Zhuge Jingmings side. He knew Wen Xin was highly skilled in medicine, but seeing such a reaction after the needle insertion was a first for him.
Zhuge Jingming couldnt move his body at all, but he blinked at Yan Lin, indicating that he was fine and actually felt veryfortable, with his meridians cleared.
Wen Xin sat down on a nearby chair, casually picked up an ancient book, and flipped through it with calmness. She spoke in aposed tone, In the Green Physician Sect, ones medical skills may not need to be exceptional, but proficiency in acupuncture is a must. You must be a graduate of a medical university, right?
The man standing behind Zhuge Jingming hesitated for a moment upon hearing Wen Xins words. Reluctantly, he spoke, Its none of your concern. Im currently striving to learn acupuncture, but I just dont have the talent.
Talent is indeed important but its not an excuse for not learning. Study hard. If you fail the Green Physician Sect assessment in six months, theres no need for you to stay here.
Wen Xins voice was not loud, but it struck a chord with the man and Yan Lin. They knew that the hospital of the Green Physician Sect would be established in six months, but they hadnt heard about the assessment yet.
Miss Wen this assessment Yan Lin knew Miss Wens medical skills were superb, and he also knew that Zhuge Jingming showed extreme respect to Wen Xin, following her instructions without question. Therefore, he was very curious about Wen Xins identity
The assessment will take ce one week before the hospital is established. As for the content of the assessment, it will naturally involve theoretical knowledgebined with practical skills. When the timees, you will know what the assessment entails.
After about five minutes had passed, Wen Xin stood up, walked to Zhuge Jingmings side, and removed the silver needle from his neck.
She then casually pped the book in her hand on the other mans chest. This book will be useful for you. Whether its traditional Chinese medicine or integrated Chinese and Western medicine, acupuncture is an essential tool in your medical practice. Take this situation, for example: taking medication would alleviate symptoms in at least three days, but with acupuncture, five minutes is enough.
As Wen Xin finished speaking, she removed thest silver needle from Zhuge Jingmings body.
Comfortable Zhuge Jingming felt his whole body rxed andfortable, stretchingzily.
The two men beside him looked at Zhuge Jingming in astonishment. He had been feeling unwell since yesterday, and he had taken medicine himself, but it hadnt shown significant effects.
But with just three needles from Wen Xin, Zhuge Jingming hadpletely recovered in just five minutes. Wasnt this simply miraculous?
Miss Wen, your acupuncture skills are even better than my masters, arent they? Yan Lin looked at Wen Xin cautiously, speaking in a low voice, afraid of disturbing anyone outside.
Its alright. Your masters acupuncture skills have also improved At least his hands didnt tremble when administering the needles.
Thank you for your praise, Miss Wen. Ive already prepared everything you asked for. Yan Lin, please fetch them for Miss Wen. Zhuge Jingming had already returned to normal, looking radiant and full of energy.
Yan Lin acted quickly, bringing two metal boxes from the dispensary and respectfully cing them in front of Wen Xin.
Wen Xin took them, opened the boxes, picked up a pill, held it under her nose to smell, and then casually tossed one to Zhuge Jingming.
You can start production now. You can set the price and efficacy yourself. I think the machines effect is quite good. If its not enough, Ill have someone bring another one for you
Thank you, Miss Wen Upon hearing Wen Xins words, Zhuge Jingmings eyes lit up. He really needed the pharmaceutical machine.
Especially after seeing the utilization rate of the machine, Zhuge Jingming absolutely loved it. He had wanted to throw away the old-fashioned alchemy machines from before.
Eat the pills. Your body needs proper care. Dont overwork yourself. Feeling unwell is just a reminder for you. Ill take these two boxes of pills for now. You can produce more for yourself. Take one pill every three days. Ill cover the cost.
With that, Wen Xin stood up, hugged the two boxes of pills in her arms, and prepared to leave

Ill see Miss Wen off Zhuge Jingming, now fully recovered and overjoyed, hadnt expected Wen Xin to visit. He thought he would need a few more days to recover from the pain.
Wen Xin didnt refuse or exchange pleasantries; she simply walked out of the treatment room with the two boxes of medicine.
Just as Wen Xin reached the door of the treatment room, she unexpectedly encountered someone she knew. She saw Ling Yichen assisting an elderly person into the room.
Miss Wen
Mr. Ling Wen Xin turned her head slightly to nce at the elderly person beside Yichen, her voice faintly inquiring, Feeling unwell?
Both of them were somewhat surprised to encounter each other here. Ling Yichen wasnt aware that Zhuge Jingming knew Wen Xin, thinking that she hade for medical treatment.
Do you know each other? The elderly man standing beside him spoke with some excitement before Ling Yichen could say anything. This young girl was the one he had been looking for, and he hadnt expected to encounter her here. We do? Shes Mu Chengxis girlfriend Ling Yichen looked at his grandfather with some surprise. He didnt know why his grandfather was so happy to see Wen Xin. Did they know each other?
Oh, youre the girlfriend of that rascal from the Mu family? No wonder the people I sent out to look for you were all stopped by that rascal. I was wondering when that rascal became so troublesome. So, it turns out that he was protecting his girlfriend. I understand!
Miss, my grandfather isnt feeling well. Could you take his pulse? Ling Yichens grandfather felt that his breathing hadnt been smoothtely and suspected something was wrong with his health, so he often came to Zhuge Jingmings clinic.
Zhuge Jingming had examined him and advised him to get X-rays at the hospital, but the old man was stubborn and refused to go, and the Ling family
couldnt force him.
Originally, Zhuge Jingming didnt want Wen Xin to get involved in this mess. He had already informed the Ling family about Old Mister Lings condition, and the Ling family unanimously agreed to respect the old mans decision.
Alright.
Wen Xin nced at Ling Yichen and didnt refuse the old man. She handed the medicine boxes to Zhuge Jingming, and supported Ling Yichens grandfather into the treatment room together.
When Wen Xin took Old Master Lings, her expression was calm. It seemed that she had already guessed the old mans condition upon seeing him, so she didnt react much.
Old Master Ling, do you want to live or maintain the current situation?
As soon as Wen Xin spoke, everyone around was shocked. They hadnt expected Wen Xin to be so straightforward.
Wen Ling Yichen naturally knew Old Master Lings health condition, but they were all trying to hide it to minimize the old mans pain.
Ling Shao, when I treat patients, I want them to continue living. If youre referring to maintaining the current situation, I can say that Elder Zhuges treatment has already done his best, and I cant add anything more.
But if Old Master Ling wants to live on, I suggest he undergo surgery. You can have Nan Xu be the main surgeon.
Wen Xin looked at Old Master Ling with clear and firm eyes, offering him two risky options.
If he maintained the current situation, he probably wouldntst another three months, sumbing to respiratory failure. If he opted for surgery, given his age, the risk was not insignificant.
Watching Wen Xins bright eyes, Old Master Ling admired her courage. He stroked his beard,ughing heartily.
He knew his health condition, but no one dared to tell him the truth, not even Zhuge Jingming.
Everyone kept it from him, thinking he didnt know, but only this little girl dared to speak the truth.
Miss, which option do you think I should choose? Old Master Ling looked at Wen Xin with shrewd eyes, wanting to see how brave she really was, if she could speak without reservation.
How to choose is your decision. Youre already experiencing episodes of respiratory arrest, sometimessting two or three minutes, sometimes even longer. Its already very dangerous. If it happenste at night, you might not even have the chance to find medication.
After Wen Xin finished speaking, Ling Yichen looked at her in shock. He didnt even know about this.
Grandpa, lets go for the surgery. The doctor Miss Wen just mentioned, I happen to know her. I can ask her toe and perform the surgery for you.
Miss, whats the sess rate of the surgery? Old Master Ling was also
surprised by Wen Xins urate assessment of his condition. Suddenly, he
wanted to continue living. Encountering such an interesting girl, he had to
protect her a little, right?
I havent seen your scans, so I cant be certain, but I can confirm that your cancer hasnt spread. You just need to remove the tumor, so theres no need to worry about metastasis. The sooner the surgery, the better.
Alright, Ling Yichen, arrange for the hospital. I want to live a few more years, to see this little girl get married to that little rascal.
Old Master Ling stroked his beard, his face filled with satisfaction.
Ling Yichen looked at the loving gaze Old Master Ling directed at Wen Xin, somewhat puzzled. He was his grandson, so why did Old Master Ling want to see Wen Xin marry Mu Chengxi?
After seeing off Ling Yichen and Old Master Ling, Zhuge Jingming wiped the sweat off his forehead andsighed softly, Youngest Uncle, youre a true hero.
You dare to say such things. If the old man cant ept it, you might offend the Ling family.
Hes one of the founders of the Four Great Families. If he were that fragile, how could the Ling family be where it is today? His condition is really not good. Only surgery can solve it. Otherwise, it could tarnish the reputation of your clinic. Ill leave now; I have other matters to attend to!
After saying this, Wen Xin quickly left Zhuge Jingmings clinic. Sitting in the taxi, she nced at the time and felt that it was gettingte.
When Wen Xin returned to Zhi Lan, she saw the woman who had deliberately caused trouble yesterday packing up her belongings. She nced at her lightly and prepared to go upstairs.
Hey, youre quite resourceful. I just spoke to you yesterday, and I got kicked out by thendlord. Youre really something!
Listening to the womans words, Wen Xin stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and looked at her coldly, Thats why I say, if you dont have the strength, be low-key and dont get yourself into trouble!
With that, Wen Xin turned and went upstairs without looking back, leaving the angry woman stomping her feet where she stood.
Back at home, Wen Xin packed the pills into a box, packaged the Autumn Pear Paste made by Auntie Fu, and arranged for a courier to pick them up to send to Yang Jingyan at the sanatorium.
After everything was packed and the courier sent out, Mu Chengxis call came in, asking when she would arrive.
Feeling a bit apologetic, Wen Xin exined the situation, but Mu Chengxi didnt get angry. Instead, he reassured Wen Xin not to worry and to take care of herself..

When Wen Xin arrived at the old mansion of the Mu family, it was already 7 oclock in the evening. The butler had calcted the time and had been waiting outside with the staff.
As soon as the car stopped, the butler hurried forward to open the door for Wen
Xin.
Miss Wen
Wen Xin got out of the car with a handbag and a backpack, calmly greeting the butler, Butler Mu.
The butler warmly took Wen Xins handbag and handed it to a nearby servant, instructing, Take this to Seventh Young Masters courtyard.
There are gifts for the old madam in the back of the car. Please have someone take them. Wen Xin looked at the enthusiastic butler and spoke in a gentle tone.
Miss Wen, Old Madam and Eldest Miss are waiting for you in the main hall. Please follow me The butler carried the gifts Wen Xin brought and led the way.
As soon as Wen Xin entered the old madams courtyard, Mu Chengxu walked out. Seeing Wen Xin, her face lit up with joy.
Come, its cold outside, right? Why are you dressed so lightly? Mu Chengxu warmly held Wen Xins hand, wrinkling her brow slightly at her cold hand. If Chengxi knew your hands were so cold, he would definitely feel distressed again.
Its not that serious. Mu Chengxus words amused Wen Xin. She hadnt expected Mu Chengxis concern over such trivial matters to be known by everyone.
Following Mu Chengxu into the old madams house, Wen Xin unexpectedly saw Wei Manqing sitting in the living room, apanying the old madam for tea.
Grandma, Auntie.
Come sit by Grandmas side. Your mother-inw heard that you would be staying at the old mansion for a while, so she had Chengxis courtyard tidied up nicely for you.
Grandma pulled Wen Xin over to sit beside her. Seeing Wei Manqing, Wen Xin suppressed the coldness in her demeanor and said lightly, Thank you.
Dont be so polite. Chengxi rarelyes back to the capital within a year. Now that you cane and stay, its the best. I heard that you still have exams in a week. Ive already talked to your uncle. If Chengxi isnt home when its time for your exam, well take you there.
Wei Manqing liked Wen Xin a lot now. She even regretted not leaving a good impression on Wen Xin when they first met. She wondered if Wen Xin would me her.
Chengxi will be back in three days. Wen Xin smiled faintly at Wei Manqing.
Their sudden warmth made her somewhat ufortable.
Alright, alright. Its gettingte. Lets eat first. Butler, were ready to eat
Grandma was worried that Wen Xin would be hungry at this hour, so when Wen Xin came in, she had the seafood steamed and urged everyone to eat quickly.
During the meal, Wen Xin looked at the table full of seafood with some helplessness. Although she liked seafood, she had been spoiled by Mu Chengxi over the past year and rarely peeled shrimp herself.
Seeing Wen Xins expression, Grandma smiled indulgently. Chengxi specially instructed that you like seafood but find it troublesome. You dont have to worry. Someone will peel the shrimp and crab for you. You can just eat.
Sure enough, as soon as Grandma finished speaking, two servants sat down at a small table nearby and began to peel shrimp and crab for Wen Xin. Soon, a te full of shrimp and crab meat was ced in front of her.
Mu Chengxu turned to look at Wen Xin, winked at her, and chuckled, You dont know this. The only person who has received such treatment since young is Mu Chengxi. Who would have thought that the Mu familys darling would be peeling shrimp and crab for you? Its really surprising.
Wen Xin listened to Mu Chengxus words and smiled faintly. Indeed, Mu Chengxi had done a lot for her.
Thats because Chengxi knows how to take care of his wife. If he didnt treat you well, do you think we would approve of you marrying that brat? Pursuing a wife naturally requires setting aside your pride.
Old Madam Mu found Wen Xin very likable. She felt that even if Mu Chengxi went to the sky to pick stars for Wen Xin, she wouldnt be surprised. She thought Wen Xin was worth it.
Listening to Mu Chengxu and Grandmas words, Wei Manqing chuckled. She picked up the chopsticks from the table and picked up a piece of ribs for Wen Xin.
Chengxi has always been unique since he was a child, only listening to
Grandpas words. It wasnt until I met you that I realized hes also a wife lover.
The three women chatted andughed, and Wen Xin heard many interesting stories about Mu Chengxis childhood from them. Before they knew it, it was already past ten oclock.
Seeing that Grandma was getting tired, Wen Xin persuaded her to rest.
After Grandma went to bed, Wei Manqing took the initiative to offer to take her back to Mu Chengxis courtyard. Wen Xin guessed that Wei Manqing had something to say to her and didnt refuse.
On the way back to Mu Chengxis courtyard, Wei Manqing suddenly held Wen
Xins hand. Why are your hands so cold, little girl? Its cold outside, so wear more clothes.
Im not wearing less clothes. My hands just tend to get cold.
Wen Xin couldnt figure out what Wei Manqing wanted to say. Did she know about her health condition? She wondered if Wei Manqing would be unhappy knowing that she couldnt conceive.
Wen Xin, youre a smart girl. You should know that Aunt had something to tell you when I offered to walk you back. If you dont want to hear it, dont me Aunt for nagging.
Wen Xin looked at Wei Manqings gentle smile and found her somewhat simr to Mu Chengxi, but Mu Chengxis features seemed even more stunning. Auntie, just say it if you have something to say.
When Wen Xin decided to undergo treatment, she had already thought about what she would face if her condition couldnt be cured, but she didnt expect to be discovered so soon
Then Ill be straightforward! Wei Manqing looked at Wen Xin with a gentle smile, her entire person looked even more intellectual and elegant.
I heard that Zhao Yuyao came yesterday? Did he meet your grandfather? Wei Butler told me that Zhao Honghan will being to Beijing for a job review next month. Have you heard whether Chengxis aunt wille over? Hearing that Wei Manqing wanted to ask about Wei Mantong, Wen Xins nervous mood became even more unsettled.
She quietly patted her chest. It seemed that she really couldnt do anything wrong. This was too thrilling.
Auntie, are you asking about Auntiy? Zhao Yuyao dide with his ssmates. He heard someone mentioning Auntie deliberately at the restaurant, so he got angry and came forward. He even met with Grandpa.
I dont know if Aunty wille to Beijing, but Uncle Zhao wont leave Aunty alone in Ice City. In fact, thats not even a problem.
Wen Xin was uncertain about Wei Mantongs thoughts, but she knew Zhao Honghan well enough to be sure that if someone was left behind, it would definitely be Zhao Yuyao, not Auntie.
ording to what you said, Chengxis aunt wille to Beijing? Then I need to prepare. I want to persuade her to return to the Wei family. The situation with Zhao Shisheng in the past was very unpleasant because of Zhao familys status..

Wei Manqing held Wen Xins hand, feeling somewhat excited. She knew about the past events and understood Wei Mantongs feelings. But after so many vears of noting home, it was somewhat unreasonable.
Luckily, she was finallying back now.
Wen Xin stayed at the Mu familys old house for three days. Apart from visiting Zhuge Jingmings clinic once, she hadnt gone out.
In the afternoon, she was holed up at home, studying experimental data. For the independent enrollment, she only needed to study some theoretical knowledge.
Wen Xin, theres a new productunch event at Tianye Group tonight. Are you interested in going? I heard its about a new concept in unmanned driving technology.
Mu Chengxu walked in excitedly from outside, holding two cups of warm milk tea and some desserts.
Wen Xin looked up from her books and nced at Mu Chengxu, hesitating for a moment. I dont want to go. Chengxi will be back tonight.
Early that morning, Wen Xin received a call from Mu Chengxi, saying he was about to board the ne. But it had been eight hours, and there was still no news from him. Wen Xin just didnt feel like going to see Tianye Groups new productunch.
Alright, if you dont want to go, Ill go with my assistant. You focus on your review. Im preparing to coborate with Yuan Junye recently, but Im not sure if hes willing.
Mu Chengxu spoke before Wen Xin could respond, gently patting her shoulder and speaking softly, You focus on your studies. Ill see if there are any interesting gadgets at his productunch event. I can bring some back for you to y with.
Mu Chengxu left, not waiting for Wen Xin to reply before leaving in a hurry. Wen Xin watched her leaving figure, lost in thought. She thought that coborating with Yuan Junye was actually not a bad idea.
Wen Xin picked up her phone and dialed Yuan Junyes number. Perhaps because Yuan Junye was busy preparing for theunch event, there was no answer.
Wen Xin hung up the phone and threw it aside, then stood up to go to the bathroom.
Just as Wen Xin stood up, her phone suddenly lit up. She leaned over to look, and the number was familiar, but she didnt want to answer it.
Wen Xin ignored the vibrating phone and walked towards the bathroom.
Wen Xin came out of the bathroom five minutester. She thought Alfredo wouldnt bother her again, but she didnt expect him not only to call but also to send several text messages.
Wen Xin furrowed her brows slightly, wondering what could make Alfredo so anxious to contact her. He was not like this in the past.
Her jade-like fingers tapped on the message on her phone. When she read the contents, shepletely lost herposure and sat down abruptly on the sofa.
The Elders Council has tampered with Mu Chengxis return flight to the country. Try to contact Mu Chengxi to see if you can reach him. I just passed by the Elders Council and overheard them discussing the ne explosion.
Reading this message, Wen Xins hand on herp couldnt help trembling. No wonder Mu Chengxi hadnt disembarked for so long.
Before, even when Mu Chengxi was on the ne, he still had Wi-Fi. But this time
At that moment, Wen Xins phone started vibrating again. She nced at her phone and saw it was from Chu Yunxuan. She quickly answered.
Baby, Gu Yanzhe contacted me and asked me to tell you that Mu Chengxi might be dyed for one or two days before returning. Dont worry about him. Ive already taken people to find them. Theyre in Pochinki now.
Upon hearing Chu Yunxuans words, Wen Xins tense emotions instantly rxed, but she still couldnt help worrying about Mu Chengxi, wondering what had happened to him.
Im not very clear about the specific situation either. He just told me to pass on the message to you. They might need to dy their return for one or two days. I finally managed to get them to tell me they were in Pochinki. Once I know more, Ill inform you.
Wen Xin furrowed her brows slightly, watching as Chu Yunxuan hurriedly hung up the phone. She lightly tapped the back of the sofa with her fingers, lost in thought.
The fact that Gu Yanzhe could call Chu Yunxuan meant that Mu Chengxi could actually contact the outside world. So, if he didnt call her, there must be a reason.
The fact that Chu Yunxuan agreed to go find them indicated that their situation wasnt optimistic. It could also mean that their safety was threatened. Continent M, where Chu Yunxuans organization was based, was closer to them than Continent F, making it more convenient to support them.
Wen Xin leaned back,zily sitting on the sofa with her beautiful eyes closed tightly.
She could be sure that Mu Chengxi must have been injured, and not lightly.
Wen Xin picked up her phone and dialed Alfredos number. The phone was answered after just one ring.
It was as if he had been waiting for her.
Whoid hands on Mu Chengxi?
Its the Elders Councils people. Ive sent someone to investigate. If nothing unexpected happens, it was arranged by Elder Jason. Yatta, you shouldnt act rashly.
Alfredo wasnt surprised at all that Wen Xin would ask him this question. Although he felt bitter that Wen Xin had called him because of Mu Chengxi, he couldnt ignore Wen Xins affairs.
Just call me Wen Xin. Issue me six special passes. In a week, I want to take a few people to Independent State.
Wen Xins eyes reddened slightly. She had warned Alfredo not toy hands on Mu Chengxi, but the people from the Elders Council hadnt notified her. In that case, she would personally inform them.
Wen Xin, Ill handle Jason Elders actions against Continent F. If you want to return to Independent State, you need to think about it carefully. Youre about to turn neen. Once you return, you wont be able to leave.
Out of selfishness, Alfredo naturally hoped that Wen Xin would return to Independent State and marry him.
However, Wen Xin hade back for Mu Chengxi this time. He didnt want her to act impulsively.
I told you to prepare, so go and prepare. You dont have a say in anything else. Wen Xin coldly hung up. She had lost all rationality.
She had witnessed her parents being killed when she was too young to do anything. But now she was different. If something happened to Mu Chengxi, she would make them pay a heavy price.
Alfredo looked at the phone in his hand, feeling a sourness in his heart that made his whole body ufortable. He had begged her for so many years, but she never stayed in Independent State.
And now, she was willing to rush back to Independent State to take revenge for someone she had only known for a year.
That was truly preferential treatment, which made him feel extremely ufortable..

Chapter 401 - 401: Chu Yunxuan Asked Mu Chengxi If He Set Her Up
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
When Chu Yunxuan arrived in Pochinki, Gu Yanzhe was waiting for her. As soon as she came out of the airport, she got into the car with him and went t directly o Mu Nans temporary base in Pochinki.
Exiting the car, Chu Yunxuan was slightly stunned when she saw Mu Nan walking towards her. This man from the auction seemed to know Gu Yanzhe? Could they be rted?
Mu Nan nced at Chu Yunxuan and froze for a moment. She was the only one who dared to bid against him, which showed remarkable courage.
How is Mu Chengxi? Why didnt you let him inform Wen Xin? Do you know Wen Xin seems to already know about your ne ident?
Although Chu Yunxuan didnt say anything to Wen Xin on the phone, she could clearly sense Wen Xins nervousness.
She didnt dare to ask or say much, fearing that Wen Xin would know too much and might do something impulsive.
Master Xi is fine. The iniured ones are Lianz Luovu and Mu Dong, but their conditions are not serious. Gu Yanzhe led Chu Yunxuan and Deluns into a small vi.
In the vi, Mu Chengxi was sitting on the sofa, wearing a ck shirt with one button unbuttoned at the cor, casually open.
A bandage wrapped around his wrist, and between his distinct fingers, he held a cigarette, looking somewhatzy.
Sit
Hearing theme in, Mu Chengxi lifted his head from the tablet, nced at Chu Yunxuan, and casually stubbed out the cigarette in his hand. He looked cold and heavy, exuding a chilling aura.
Before, Chu Yunxuan thought Wen Xin seemed arrogant and unrestrained, giving off a sense of extreme ruthlessness.
However, looking at Mu Chengxi now, this man in front of herpletely redefined her understanding of ruthlessness. This kind of chilling aura was the true meaning of cold-bloodedness and heartlessness.
Well, Young Master Mu, I think you must contact Wen Xin. Otherwise, she is capable of anything.
On her way here, Chu Yunxuan had already messaged Yan Qing, asking him to prepare as they might be going into battle.
Um, before you came, I had already messaged her. I wanted you toe because I want to cooperate with you.
Cooperate?
Mu Chengxis wordspletely confused Chu Yunxuan. She didnt know what cooperation there could be between them. Most importantly, all the real power she held was on Wen Xins side.
Yes, I know you have a special identity and should be a member of Di Ting, the Di Ting Organisation. I want all the data on the Independent State
Hearing Mu Chengxis purpose for asking her toe, Chu Yunxuan instantly understood that Mu Chengxi had set a trap for her using Wen Xin.
Mu Chengxi had already calcted that based on her rtionship with Wen Xin, she would definitely be worried for Wen Xin when Gu Yanzhe contacted her. Hence, hering over was within his calctions.
Mu Chengxi, you schemed against me? Chu Yunxuan was a little angry. She treated him as a friend, but he plotted against her. She was disgusted.
Its not really a scheme. Before you came, I could only contact you. You know that Wen Xins phone is not something that ordinary people can call.
I want to talk to you about cooperation, and Im serious. Even if you didnte, I would have made an offer to Di Ting. As long as you promise to give me the data from Independent State, you can name your conditions.
Mu Chengxi looked at Chu Yunxuan with cold and indifferent eyes, his deep ck eyes sincere and serious. This time, he was really getting ready. The fact that people from Independent State could attack him showed their strength was not to be underestimated.
Since it was a negotiation, Chu Yunxuan reverted to her usual yful and charming nature. After the initial nervousness wore off, she put on a teasing and alluring smile.
Its not that Im unwilling to cooperate with you. You know better than I do what Independent State is like. Even if I were to investigate, I couldnt find anything about Independent State. So, if you want to seek revenge, then I can only advise you to give up.
Chu Yunxuan still didnt know that Mu Chengxi already knew about Wen Xins connection to Independent State, so she didnt reveal that Wen Xin was the one who provided Di Ting with all the information about the Independent Continent.
Also, Chu Yunxuan genuinely didnt know much about Independent State, so she wasnt lying.
Mu Chengxis deep eyes narrowed slightly. He believed Chu Yunxuans words and didnt continue to press her.
Alright, thank you foring today. Consider it a favor owed to you. If you have any future matters, just contact Gu Yanzhe
Gu Yanzhe, who was listening to their conversation, almost spat blood when he heard Mu Chengxis words. Clearly, it was Master Xi who owed a favor to Chu Yunxuan, so why did it end up being him who had to repay the debt? Wasnt that a bit too much?
I do have one more thing. With Mu Chengxis safety confirmed, Chu Yunxuan rxed. Then, she remembered the incident at the auction that day.
I met that man with the beard in the courtyard just now. He bought a piece of warm jade at the auction in Pochinki. I want it. If possible, Im willing to buy it back at the original price.
That day, Chu Yunxuan didnt continue bidding, not because she didnt have the money, but because she didnt want to maliciously drive up the price or cause trouble. So, as long as Mu Chengxi could make the man sell her the warm jade, she would be willing to let Yan Qing leave him a back door when cing orders with Di Ting in the future.
Sorry, I cant give you the warm jade. Wen Xin needs it more for her cold constitution.
Mu Chengxi trusted Chu Yunxuans friendship with Wen Xin, so he didnt hide the purpose of the warm jade. He believed that Chu Yunxuan would keep this secret.
Are you saying the warm jade is already with Wen Xin? Then I wont worry about her suffering in the winter. Alright, alright, I wont hold this against you this time, seeing how good you are to my little darling. As for Independent State, Im really unable to help.
With the warm jade in Wen Xins hands, Chu Yunxuans wish was fulfilled. Indeed, Mu Chengxi genuinely cared for Wen Xin. This time, she finally affirmed that Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin being together was a good thing.
Seeing that Mu Chengxi was fine, Chu Yunxuan left the small vi with Deluns. She got into the car arranged by Gu Yanzhe and left.
After Chu Yunxuan left, Mu Chengxi lit another cigarette. After taking a puff, he fell silent for a while before speaking slowly, Prepare the ne, and lets go back to our country. Let Liang Luoyu and Mu Dong recover from their injuries before going back.
Mu Chengxi was still worried about Wen Xin. If people from Independent State dared to act against him so openly, he was concerned that Wen Xin might also be in danger. He could ignore everything else, but he couldnt overlook Wen Xins safety.
Okay, Ill arrange it right away.
At that moment, Wen Xin was sitting in front of herputer, studying the automatic positioning navigation system. The map disyed on theputer screen was that of Independent State..
Chapter 402 - 402: Blowing Up The Independent State
Chapter 402 - 402: Blowing Up The Independent State
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Wen Xin sat in front of herputer, researching the automatic positioning navigation system. The map of Independent State was disyed on theputer screen.
Since people from Independent State dared toy hands on Mu Chengxi, let them taste their own anger. Even if she couldnt go back to Independent State now to cause trouble, she wouldnt let the Jason family off easily.
Master Drunk, this missile has just been developed and hasnt been tested yet. Are you too impatient to use it?
At this moment, Barry was on a call with Wen Xin, trying hard to persuade her to calm down. After all, a missile costs tens of millions. Wasnt that too high a price?
Im just helping you test it, arent I? Havent you beenining that I havent helped you make a signal shielding system? This time, Ill solve all your problems at once.
Wen Xins tone was calm, but Barry could sense her anger. He didnt know which blind person had angered their master.
Master Drunk, if this fails and innocent people get hurt Isnt that inappropriate?
Innocent? Are there innocent people in Independent State? Even if other families are blown up, those people arent innocent. But just a friendly reminder, dont waste your breath here with me. Hurry up and find a suitable base, so my missile wont blow up your base in Independent State.
When Wen Xin spoke, she smiled lightly. She already anticipated the effect of this sentence
Oh my, Master Drunk, youre really underestimating me, arent you? Do you think Im that ipetent? Even if I throw a couple of bombs at Independent State, they can only surrender obediently. Although they dont buy weapons from me, all their blueprints are bought from me
At this point, Barry suddenly stopped. He seemed to have said something wrong.
At the same time, Wen Xins fingers paused on the keyboard. Her dark, cold eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone became very serious.
You sold my blueprints?
Since the establishment of Institute 26, Wen Xins only requirement was not to do business with Independent State. But she didnt expect Barry, the head of Institute 26, to do such a thing.
Master Drunk, you let me exin, okay?
Barry heard Wen Xins cold tone and knew that he was probably doomed this time but he still wanted to argue.
Master Drunk, I didnt mean to sell the blueprints. A year ago, after we refused to do business with Independent State, there was a traitor who sold the blueprints to Independent State at a high price.
After I found out about this, I yed along and made some modifications to the blueprints before selling them to Independent State. In the past six months, Independent State did buy a lot of our blueprints, but they havent produced any weapons
Listening to Barrys feeble argument, Wen Xin smiled coldly. Stop making excuses. Send me the blueprints you sold. If I find out youve been hiding something, beware that Ill blow you up with a missile.
Wen Xin was truly angry. She handed over the authority of Institute 26 to Barry to prevent him from ying tricks, but she didnt expect him to have designs on the blueprints.
Soon, Wen Xin received the pictures Barry sent. She nced at them casually and said in a cold, indifferent voice, If I find out that Independent States new weapons are the same as those from the 26th Institute, dont me me for tying you to a missile and sending you to Independent State.
It was clear that Wen Xin was truly angry, but she also forgave him. Barry hurriedly knelt and thanked Wen Xin for sparing his life.
Wen Xin didnt have time to argue with him about these matters. It seemed like she had to visit Institute 26 soon to prevent any unexpected incidents.
Prepare the base for missileunch, and Ill help you test the missiles positioning system and anti-jamming system.
Wen Xin quickly typed a series of codes. If her programmed anti-jamming system seeded, then this missile could hit its target urately. It seemed like Independent State wouldnt have a good time!
Listening to Wen Xins arrangements, Barry, who already knew he had made a mistake, didnt dare to argue with her. He quickly instructed his subordinates to carry out the tasks ording to Wen Xins instructions.
About ten minutester, Barry informed her that the missileunch base was ready, and Wen Xinsputer also showed that the missile had been loaded into theuncher.
At this point, Wen Xin alsopleted the anti-jamming system and activated the remote control system.
Looking at theputer screen showing that everything was ready, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on Wen Xins cold face. If they darey hands on Mu Chengxi, then dont me her for being ruthless.
With a loud explosion, half of Independent State was illuminated.
Alfredos phone suddenly began vibrating like crazy. Alfredo, who had justid down to rest, sat up and answered the phone.
Chairman, its bad. Elder Jasons house has been bombed The caller was Galen, the secretary of the chairman.
Boom
Before the person on the other end of the phone could finish their sentence, Alfredo also clearly heard an explosion.
What happened? Where else was bombed
Alfredo had a bad premonition. He could guess who was behind this. How could she be so bold?
Chair Chairman Our central building has been bombed Se severe losses
The person on the other end of the phone was now too scared to speak properly. The central building of Independent State had been bombed, which was shocking news that would shake the world
Activate the anti-missile jamming system Arrange for people to check on the casualties And how about the Jason family? Whats the situation there?
Chairman, itste at night now, and the Jason family should all be asleep. The Jason family must have suffered heavy losses. Experts have analyzed that the target of this missile was Elder Jasons mansion. His fate is unknown
Galens voice became softer and softer. He was on his way to Elder Jasons mansion. He gripped his phone tightly, unable to predict who had the ability tounch missiles at Independent State.
If you have any more news, tell me immediately. Im going to the central building now. Lets keep in touch.
Alfredo got out of bed, went to the wardrobe, and changed into a new outfit. He wanted to call Wen Xin, but he knew his phone was being monitored, which would cause trouble for Wen Xin.
Just then, Alfredos phone beeped, and a stunning face appeared on his phone screen.
The owner of the beautiful face had a dark expression, bloodshot eyes, and a fierce gaze.
Alfredo fastened thest button on his shirt, suppressing his anger and not letting himself vent it on Wen Xin.
Do you know what a mess youve caused? Youre dissatisfied that Elder Jason attacked Mu Chengxi, but do you have to involve so many people? Have you thought about what would happen if they retaliated against the Mu family?

He wouldnt dare. If he dares toy a hand on the Mu family, Ill tten the Jason family, along with the Payten family. None of them will escape.
Wei Xins tone was extremely cold and serious. When she made this phone call, she had already thought it through. If anyone dared to touch her people again, she would bomb the Payten family along with the Jason family.
Wei Xin, are you threatening me?
Alfredo couldnt believe Wei Xin would speak to him like this. Was Mu Chengxis position in her heart really that important?
No, this is serious. I advise you to control the people in Independent State. Two missilesone to deal with that old guy Jason, and the other as a warning to you. If theres a next time, that missile will target your family. You know me. I mean what I say!
Is he really that important to you? Is he worth making enemies with Independent State for? This is your Independent State! Wei Xin, dont forget your identity!
Alfredo couldnt tell if he was feeling jealous or angry. He couldnt stand Wei Xin speaking to him like this because of Mu Chengxi. If it werent for his rationality telling him not to act impulsively, he really wanted to fly to the capital and bring Wei Xin back by force.
Youre right. He means much more to me than Independent State. Leave me alone, and we can coexist peacefully. I wont interfere in Independent States affairs. You just focus on being the chairman and doing your dirty work. I wont interfere.
But if anyone hurts my people again, I dont mind making enemies with Independent State. Even if it costs me my life to crush Independent State, Im willing to do it!
Wei Xin was still the same as before. She didnt care about her life in this world.
What she cared about was whether the people she wanted to protect were safe.
Alfredo, I hope you can control your people and prevent them from provoking me again. This time, I can quietly bomb you all. And next time, I can do it again.
After saying this, Wei Xin didnt want to waste any more time talking to Alfredo. She hung up the phone directly. Her goal had been achieved, and there was nothing more to say.
After tidying up her things, Wei Xin shut down herputer, climbed into bed, and waited for news from Mu Chengxi. If Mu Chengxi didnt give her any news before dawn, she would be angry.
Alfredo looked at his darkened phone and sighed helplessly. He felt that Wei
Xin had calcted his weak snot. One was his familv. and the other was her. He had to protect both
Putting on his coat, Alfredo went straight to the central building.
At this time, there were many people gathered around the central building, including the eleven elders.
When Alfredo appeared, all eleven elders hurriedly came over, and the First Elder looked at Alfredo angrily.
Chairman, you need to give us a reasonable exnation for this explosion. Every year, Independent State spends so much money on weapons and defense. How did a missile suddenly fly in from outside and bow up our central building? And the Jason family. Now the third elders fate is unknown
Exnation? How could he exin this? He had been thinking all the way here. Where did Wei Xin get the missile from? It could really hit with precise uracy and without interference. He couldnt exin this matter clearly.
Elders, I will investigate this matter as soon as possible and give you an exnation As for the situation with Elder Jason, I will also cooperate fully and arrange the best medical conditions for them
The only thing Alfredo could do now was to try his best to calm the emotions of the elders. He did not want these people to provoke Wen Xin again.
Independent States current technology was no match for Wei Xins missiles, so it would be a piece of cake for her to bomb the Independent State again.
The First Elder looked at Alfredo and sighed helplessly. He knew that ming Alfredo for this matter would be useless.
In the eyes of outsiders, he was indeed the highest authority in Independent State. However, they knew in their hearts that the Elder Council had the final say in Independent States affairs.
He did this just to take preemptive measures and was worried that Alfredo would discover their actions against Continent F.
Speaking of Continent F, the First Elders face changed drastically. He was wondering if this explosion was the work of Continent F.
However, Independent States precise location was a world secret. Even Continent F couldnt possibly know about it.
Most importantly, even if it was done by Continent Fs people, how would they know it was Elder Jason?
Such precise bombing was too unbelievable
The First Elder could think of this problem, and naturally, the other elders could too. They had been on edge since their initial anger, and they were now specting on whose home the next bomb would fall on.
Elders, please go back and rest The central building has suffered severe damage and will probably be closed for some time. I will make arrangements for a new Elder Council office. Please rest assured
Alfredo spoke at the right time. He had already noticed that the elders were nervous. At this moment, he suddenly hoped that Wei Xin would drop another missile. This wouldpletely deter those elders.
After more than an hour of rescue efforts, Elder Jason was finally dug out from the rubble by the rescue team. Fortunately, Elder Jason was lucky.
A cab had shielded him from the falling debris, but his wife wasnt as fortunate. By the time she was found, there was no sign of life.
This explosion had caused heavy losses to the Jason family, and casualties were still being calcted
When Chu Yunxuan, who was in Pochinki, learned about Independent State being hit by a missile, her first reaction was that Wei Xin had acted. However, she didnt bother Wei Xin but instead sent a message to Yan Qing, asking him to investigate what happened.
Yan Qings response came quickly. Di Ting had already investigated this matter at the first opportunity, even identifying the model of the missile and theunching unit.
However, this wasnt what interested Yan Qing. He was interested in the missiles precise targeting system and anti-interference system.
He had hacked into Institute 26s system before and had indeed seen its precise positioning system. However, he was very unfamiliar with the anti-interference system. He was sure that this must be a new system.
Chu Yunxuan looked at the message sent by Yan Qing. She wondered if Wei Xin had any connection with Institute 26. Otherwise, how could a missile that Institute 26 hadnt tested be used by Wei Xin to bomb Independent State?
Another person who had experienced a sleepless night was all the researchers at Institute 26. They couldnt imagine that the missile would be sessfullyunched on its first attempt and even remotely controlled.
Barry sat in his chair, looking at the excited researchers around him. He was lost in thought, wondering what kind of person Wei Xin really was.
From calling him to the missileunch, she had made two systems in just forty minutesa remote control system and an anti-interference system.
He wasnt sure if this system was already fully mature, but what he could be sure of was that the missile had been sessfullyunched,nding precisely on target, and hadnt encountered any interference during its flight..

This Tiny Drunk is truly extraordinary. The weapons she creates from her blueprints are also the most advanced, bearing no resemnce to any weapons existing in the world.
He was very curious about this personwas she truly a divine being descending to earth, or perhaps she was from the future?
Boss, can we apply for a patent for our anti-interference system? A man, full of excitement, rushed to Barrys side, eager to share his thoughts.
Barry raised an eyebrow at the man, who was brimming with excitement. Are you worried that Independent State doesnt know that these two missiles wereunched from our facility? Applying for a patent now? Do you need me to arrange for a crematorium for you?
This matter had already be big enough. He had tried to dissuade Wen Xin before, thinking that a ce as developed as Independent State would surely intercept these missiles, so he let Wen Xin y as she pleased.
Who would have thought that Wen Xins brilliance was so terrifying? Not only did she seed, but she also hit with pinpoint uracy, drawing even more attention.
Applying for a patent at this time, it would be obvious who had done this. It was practically walking into a trap.
Get lost, get lost, get lost. Im very troubled right now. You guys have time, so just focus on researching the new blueprints. Remember to process the orders from Z Country urgently.
When Mu Chengxi stepped off the ne, he heard about Independent State being bombed. Mu Nan followed Mu Chengxi into the courtyard of the old mansion, climbing over the wall. He didnt dare to say a word the whole way. His masters powerful aura made him somewhat fearful.
You go rest. Mu Bei wille tomorrow, and then you can leave.
Master, I understand. Mu Nan hade this time to protect Mu Chengxis safety. With Mu Beiing back tomorrow, there was indeed no need for him to stay here. He still had many things to take care of.
Mu Chengxi walked directly into his small vi. After showering in the guest room, he entered the bedroom.
As soon as he pushed open the bedroom door, Wen Xin sat up from the bed.
When she saw Mu Chengxi standing at the door, her tense mood instantly rxed.
She sat dumbfounded on the bed, watching the man approach her step by step.
The man sat down beside the bed, gently pulled her into his arms, and tenderly kissed her lips, murmuring, Im sorry for making you worry
Wen Xin didnt speak, just tightly grabbed the mans clothes, hugged him tightly, and kissed the mans thin lips domineeringly, as if only this could confirm his existence.
Almost Mu Chengxi gasped as hey on top of Wen Xin, propping himself up with his arms, afraid of crushing the girl beneath him.
Wen Xin dared not look at Mu Chengxi. She lowered her eyes, her voice somewhat hoarse. Actually, its not impossible
You little vixen, dont tempt me anymore. I can still wait a little longer It was not that Mu Chengxi didnt not want her; he just didnt want to hurt her. Only heaven knew how hard he had waited waiting.
Seeing Mu Chengxi enduring, Wen Xin hugged his neck, pushed Mu Chengxi down on the bed, and smiled devilishly at him.
Since you call me a little vixen, then not doing anything would truly be unworthy of that title.
The sky outside was getting slightly brighter. Wen Xin brushed her teeth in the bathroom, and Mu Chengxi, feeling content, hugged Wen Xin from behind, gently kissing her nape.
Did you bomb Independent State with those two missiles?
Yes, I did. They dared toy a hand on you, so they must bear my wrath. Ive already been very restrained. Wen Xin spat out the toothpaste foam, looked at Mu Chengxi through the mirror, and responded calmly, her expression full of arrogance.
Restrained? What would happen if you werent restrained? Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xins arrogant and wicked expression, indulging in a smile. How could he not love such a woman?
Then I would sink that ind In Wen Xins eyes, Independent State was just a rtively developed ind. In the face of power and advanced weaponry, everyone there was just insignificant.
My little ancestor is a treasure trove, but Independent State didnt target you; they just targeted me
Mu Chengxi hadnt expected Wen Xin to take action. He didnt want to ruin Wen Xins carefullyid ns because of his own affairs. He didnt want to be a burden to her.
I disrupted Independent States supply of ore and diamonds. You also know how important these two things are to Independent State. Thats why they targeted me.
Wen Xin ced the mouthwash cup back in its ce, lowered her head to wash her face, and grabbed a towel from the side to wipe her face and hands, tossing it casually into the trash bin.
Turning around, she wrapped her arms around Mu Chengxis neck, hanging herself on his body, raising her eyebrows in a yful smile.
Do you think I need a reason to attack them? Even though they didnt target you directly this time, they still targeted you indirectly. This is just a warning!
Wen Xins face showed a provocative expression, and for a moment, Mu Chengxi was dazzled. He truly adored her like this.
Supporting Wen Xins waist, Mu Chengxi carried her back to bed.
After lying down, Mu Chengxi held Wen Xin in his arms, allowing her to rest on his chest. His chin rested against her head, and he spoke softly, My little ancestor, I love you!
The two of them slept until evening before getting up. Wen Xinzily followed behind Mu Chengxi down the stairs.
When Auntie Fu saw Mu Chengxi, she was slightly startled. She didnt know when the Seventh Young Master had returned.
Seventh Young Master, when did youe back?
I came back early in the morning. What are you doing here? Mu Chengxi looked at Auntie Fu somewhat puzzled. He didnt understand why she wasnt taking care of Grandma and what she was doing here.
When she heard that Mu Chengxi had returned in the morning, it was understandable that Wen Xin had slept for the whole day. She had to inform the olddy about this as soon as possible, lest she was worried that something had happened to Wen Xin.
Miss Wen slept all day, and Grandma was very worried, so she specifically asked me toe and check. Now that its confirmed that Miss Wen is fine, I can go back and report to Grandma. Seventh Young Master, I will have the butler send over some items
Before Mu Chengxi could say anything, Auntie Fu hurriedly left Mu Chengxis vi and hurriedly went to Grandmas courtyard to tell her what she had seen.
It seemed that Grandmas wish to hold her great-grandchild was getting closer.
Mu Chengxi squinted as he watched Auntie Fu leave, then stretched out his long arm to pull Wen Xin into his embrace from behind. He gently bit her fair neck, his voice soft as he spoke.
It seems like my beastly reputation has been confirmed again
Wen Xin turned her head to look at Mu Chengxis handsome face, and after thinking for a moment, she spoke in a cold and indifferent tone, Indeed, quite beastly.

The day before independent enrollment arrived in the blink of an eye. ording to the requirements, Wen Xin had to personally go to the school to submit the documents and retrieve her entrance examination permit.
Wen Xin sat in Mu Chengxis car,zily nestling in the passenger seat, looking like she hadnt fully woken up.
Mu Chengxi, who was driving, nced at Wen Xin and took a piece of chocte from thepartment in the car, cing it in Wen Xins hand. Whats wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?
No, maybe the acupuncture I had yesterday was done toote. I slept all night and havent fully recovered. Ill just rest for a while longer.
Under Mu Chengxis concerned gaze, Wen Xin changed her posture and closed her eyes, resting for a while.
Mu Chengxi had already established a good rtionship with the president of Beijing University in advance. When his car arrived outside Beijing University, there were no security guards to stop him. He drove directly to the Department of Physics at Beijing University.
As soon as Mu Chengxis car stopped, it became the object of observation by many people in the school, as well as many students hurrying to attend sses.
Did you see the car that just parked outside our physics department? Its too arrogant, isnt it? Not only is the license te arrogant, but even the parking spot is marked with forl wonder who it belongs to.
I dont know, but judging by the license te, its someone we cant afford to offend.
As they passed by Mu Chengxis car, several people began to specte and discuss, pretending to casually nce over to see who was in the car.
Its probably someone from a big family whos sending their younger generation to school. I heard that Beijing University gives each of the four major families a quota every year to send their younger generation here for a taste of prestige
No way, we havent heard of any big family members in our ss. Theres only one person, its Senior Ou. He got into Beijing University with the highest score in the college entrance examination in the capital city. You guys dont know, dont talk nonsense and tarnish our schools reputation.
Passersby chatted about the car, and Mu Chengxi listened to their words clearly through the gap in the car window.
Sitting in the car, Mu Chengxi watched the curious nces from the passersby and wondered if his car was too eye-catching. Perhaps Wen Xin didnt like this kind of attention.
Just as Wen Xin opened her eyes and saw Mu Chengxi frowning, she sat up and asked in a hoarse voice, Whats wrong?
Nothing, are you awake? I parked the car outside the Department of Physics. You can go directly to submit the documents.
Students who came to register from outside the school still had to go through some registration procedures before entering Beijing University. However, Mu Chengxi didnt need to bother with that. He had already made a phone call beforeing.
Wen Xin picked up a wet wipe from the car, tore open the packaging, wiped the corners of her eyes, confirmed that she didnt look drowsy, and took the documents to get out of the car.
Mu Chengxi followed Wen Xins movements and prepared to get out of the car as well. But just as he was about to open the car door, Wen Xin suddenly turned around and looked at him.
You dont get out. Just find a ce to wait for me.
Wen Xin didnt want to wander around with Mu Chengxis handsome face, attracting unnecessary attention before taking the exam and making herself the target of many love rivals. It was just unnecessary.
Mu Chengxi squinted at Wen Xin, silently protesting her decision, but his protest had no effect. Wen Xin remained unmoved, not giving him another nce as she left with the documents in her arms, walking away without turning back.
Sitting in the car, Mu Chengxizily stretched and started the car, parking it in Beijing Universitys parking lot to wait for Wen Xin.
At this time, many students had already walked into the school from outside, most of them apanied by their parents to take the exam and to apany their children to submit the documents.
There werent many students like Wen Xin who came alone. She was extremely beautiful, with a good and cold temperament, which made her seem somewhat out of ce among the students who came to apply.
Wen Xin didnt have the spare time to care about the people around her. She put on a mask, picked up her documents, and calmly walked towards the office of the Department of Physics.
The office for submitting documents was actually a ssroom where several physics professors and members of the student union were responsible for collecting the documents.
The number of applicants for this independent enrollment was particrly high, especially for the Department of Physics, which was double the numberpared to previous years.
With so many people, the staff didnt register each one individually. Instead, they simply collected the documents and woulde backter to find the documents of the students who passed the written exam.
Put your things here.
As soon as Wen Xin entered the ssroom, the person in charge of reception told her without even lifting their head to look at her.
She casually ced her documents on the table. After submitting the documents, she didnt waste much time and turned to leave.
She didnt say a word, and her whole demeanor was extremely low-key. However, her elegant temperament and that kind of unrestrained state were too outstanding, attracting the attention of many students who asionally stole nces at her.
Not far away, Chen Yunchu was carefully dressed, wearing a delicate dress with a pink coat on top, pretending to look innocent and cute.
With documents in her arms, she looked from afar at the very outstanding girl. She didnt expect the girl she met at the Wen family vi that day to appear here today.
She casually took off her bracelet from her wrist and deliberately walked to Wen Xins side, pretending to identally bump into her, then suddenly fell to the ground, pretending to be delicate and weak.
A very soft cry attracted the attention of many people, including Zhao Yuzheng, who was busy arranging and moving the documents.
Zhao Yuzheng saw Wen Xins side profile and was slightly stunned. How could she appear here?
He remembered what Geng Qiu had said: that Wen Xins academic performance was particrly poor, and could be described as having no knowledge or skill. However, this was Beijing Universitys independent enrollment, and his first reaction was that Wen Xin was here to cause trouble.
Several kind-hearted students helped Chen Yunchu, who looked like a little princess, up from the ground, asking in gentle voices if she was injured.
Biting her lip, Chen Yunchu pretended to be aggrieved, rubbing her arm and shaking her head, her voice soft and gentle as she spoke, I believe no one intentionally bumped into me, right? I just hurt my arm a little. Its okay!
Hearing Chen Yunchus words, everyones gaze fell on Wen Xin, who was standing aside watching themotion.
When Wen Xin realized that Chen Yunchu had deliberately bumped into her, she already knew that things were not so simple. She just didnt expect that by simply wanting to take an exam seriously, she would attract so much trouble.
Wen Xin turned her head and inadvertently saw Zhao Yuzheng ring at her. In her heart, she thought, Damn it, I didnt look at the almanac when I went out. Ive met all the annoying people today.
With her arms crossed in front of her, she stood in ce, looking at Chen
Yunchu with a disdainful smile on her beautiful eyebrows, her expression cold..

Does being delicate in this world mean one is always in the right? I was just walking peacefully, and you came and bumped into me. Then you fell, and suddenly its my fault?
Wen Xin knew this was an exnation that wouldnt satisfy anyone. She had no intention of exining anything in front of these people. She had long been ustomed to those who came looking for trouble on purpose.
The people around, considering themselves righteous, dared not meet Wen Xins dark, bright eyes. They felt she hadnt said anything wrong.
They hadnt witnessed Wen Xin bumping into Chen Yunchu themselves. They just thought Chen Yunchu seemed delicate and pitiful, hence they sympathized with her. They were unaware of the truth of the matter.
Um this student here, since she said you bumped into her, why dont you just apologize to her? This matter can be resolved that way, right?
A teacher stepped out from the teachers circle, adopting an attitude of calming things down. She felt this matter itself was just a simple collision problem. Regardless of who was right or wrong, a simple apology could quell the situation. It would be nice if it ended this way.
Apologize to her? Did you witness me intentionally bumping into her?
l didnt see it, but shes the one who got injured This student here, saying sorry wouldnt hurt, right? Youll be living in the same school in the future. If by chance you both get into the same major, you might even end up in the same dormitory
The teacher looked kindly at Wen Xin, thinking her role as a teacher was sufficient to make Wen Xin apologize.
Since you think this is eptable, why dont you apologize? 1 didnt bump into her; she ran into me. Why should I apologize?
In Wen Xins cold gaze, there was no trace ofpromise but a very arrogant attitude.
Why why are you so stubborn? Regardless of whether or not you bumped into this student, its appropriate for you to apologize
The teacher felt a bit embarrassed being refuted by Wen Xin. She hade out with good intentions to mediate the conflict between the two but did not expect a new student to not give her face.
If you dont apologize to her and to me, with your character, we dont want you at Beijing University!
Oh? Are you sure about what youre saying? Well then, I can tell you clearly: I wont participate in the autonomous admissions anymore!
Initially, Wen Xin was in a good mood earlier, but after this disturbance, she no longer felt like attending sses at Beijing University. Anyway, going to university or not was of no use to her. She had a lot of things to do, so it wouldnt be bad to avoid this trouble.
Saying this, Wen Xin pushed aside the teacher blocking the door, entered the ssroom, took out her files from a stack, and turned around to leave.
As soon as she stepped out of the ssroom, Chen Yunchu grabbed her arm. Chen Yunchu looked at Wen Xin triumphantly, You think you can steal my stuff and run? Its obvious you have a guilty conscience. Give me back my bracelet
Wen Xin lowered her head, looking at Chen Yunchus hand grabbing her wrist. A hint of impatience shed in her eyes, and then she heard whispersing from behind.
No wonder she can give up on her own enrollment. Turns out she didnte here to study but to steal!
How can someones morals be so corrupt? Shes actually stealing!
Wen Xin lifted her head to nce at the people murmuring behind her. She turned to face Chen Yunchu with a cold smile.
Since youve been scripting this drama for yourself from the moment you entered, just say your purpose directly; what do you want?
Wen Xin shook off Chen Yunchus hand, looking at her with indifference. She found her behavior truly repulsive.
Thats enough, Wen Xin. Stop making a scene. Your academic performance was already poor, yet you insisted on participating in independent enrollment. Although the Geng family cant support you anymore since theyre gone, you must have received quite a sum from them, right? Why are you resorting to theft again?
Zhao Yuzheng suddenly emerged from the corner. He walked up to Wen Xin, looking at her with righteousness, extending his hand to Wen Xin.
Hand over the stuff?
Zhao Yuzhengs wordspletely convicted Wen Xin. The voices of those sympathizing with Chen Yunchu grew louder. Some were even preparing to call the police
So, youre a professional thief! No wonder youre so arrogant. I thought I was wronging you, so you didnt want to take the exams. Turns out you sessfully stole something and wanted to run away. Disgusting! How could we let such a person enter the campus of Beijing University?
Student Zhao, do you know her? Go and find the stolen items now and hand them over to the police.
Zhao Yuzheng hadnt expected the situation to escte like this. He had only wanted Wen Xin to turn over a new leaf, but he hadnt anticipated that these people would turn against Wen Xin as a group. He looked apologetically at Wen Xin.
If you hand over the stolen goods, I will plead for you so that the school wont pursue the matter.
After Zhao Yuzheng finished speaking, he tried to touch her, but before his hand could reach Wen Xin, everyone heard the crisp sound of bones breaking. Wen Xin had forcefully snapped Zhao Yuzhengs arm.
A hint of murderous intent shed in Wen Xins dark, bright eyes as she looked at Zhao Yuzheng, who wore an expression of disbelief, and sneered.
Are you so familiar with me? Do you know so much about my affairs? Has Geng Qiu talked badly about me in front of you? Do you think everything he said is true? Why are you everywhere? If you have nothing to do, I can find something for you to do. How about making your Zhao family bankrupt?
Wen Xin was truly angry this time. She didnt want to cause trouble, but being ndered by someone like Zhao Yuzheng, she couldnt bear it!
Pale-faced, Zhao Yuzheng held his broken arm. He couldnt believe Wen Xin had resorted to violence again. Thest time, she had broken his ribs, and now she had broken his arm.
You
Get lost. If you dont, Ill break your legs! Wen Xins eyes were now bloodshot, and she appeared extremely fierce. People around her couldnt help but step back.
Zhao Yuzheng knew Wen Xin could say and do such things. Holding his arm, he fled from the corridor.
Wen Xin nced indifferently at the teacher who had initially confronted her she had backed off a few steps in shock then snorted and walked up to Chen Yunchu.
l didnt want to confront you today about your deliberate provocation. You shouldnt take advantage of the situation.
Before Chen Yunchu could react, Wen Xins hand gripped her neck. She exerted a slight force, and Chen Yunchu suddenly rolled her eyes without warning.
Struggling, she tried to pat Wen Xins arm, feeling like she was about to die.
Her struggle became more intense, and her manicured nails left a red mark on Wen Xins hand, but for Wen Xin, it meant nothing.
Miss, if you have anything to say, say it properly. Dont be like this..? .. It wont be good if someone dies
Chapter 407 - 407: Don’t Play This Childish Stuff In Front Of Me
Chapter 407 - 407: Dont y This Childish Stuff In Front Of Me
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Hey, ssmate, this might just be a misunderstanding. Lets talk it out calmly. Theres no need for this
Student, please let her go. Shes going to die
People behind them kept trying to persuade, but no one dared to step forward to stop Wen Xin. They all felt that this female student was too terrifying. She easily broke a boys arm just now, and now she seemed to be strangling this
Just as Chen Yunchu was losing the strength to struggle, Wen Xin let go of her hand around her neck and threw her on the ground like a rag doll.
Chen Yunchu gasped for breath on the ground, struggling to breathe. Wen Xin squatted down in front of her, reached into Yunchus pocket, and pulled out a bracelet, throwing it onto Chen Yunchus face.
You intentionally bumped into me, pretended to be weak and fell down, and even wanted to frame me with your cheap bracelet. Youre such a childish thing. Dont y these games in front of me again
Chen Yunchu, who was gasping for breath, stared in astonishment at the bracelet thrown on the ground. She she clearly had stuffed it into Wen Xins pocket, so how how did it end up in her own pocket?
The teacher who had used Wen Xin just now had retreated into the ssroom and didnt dare to look at Wen Xin anymore.
Wen Xin was too terrifying, and she feared that Wen Xin would treat her the same way she treated Chen Yunchu.
Wen Xin stood up and nced coldly at the people who had been defending Chen Yunchu. Everyone lowered their heads, afraid to meet her gaze.
Her gaze finally fell on the teacher hiding in the ssroom. Wen Xin smirked coldly, You, as a teacher, cant even distinguish right from wrong. Your teaching is misleading!
After speaking, Wen Xin took her portfolio and walked out indifferently.
The onlookers automatically parted and made way for her. No one dared to stop Wen Xin.
Miss, youre so cool!
A small girl who had been standing in the corner and watching everything unfold excitedly shouted at Wen Xin.
She had wanted to speak up for Wen Xin earlier, but when she met Wen Xins eyes, she understood the meaning in her eyes. Wen Xin didnt want her to speak up for her.
She felt that this Miss was so cool. She had seen Chen Yunchu framing Wen Xin with her own eyes, and she also saw Wen Xin discreetly putting the bracelet back into Chen Yunchus pocket.
When Wen Xin was about to leave the teaching building, she heard the shout from the little girl. She turned her head and nced at the girl faintly, then winked at her before arrogantly leaving.
Mu Chengxi, who was waiting for Wen Xin in the parking lot, was found by the president of Beijing University and was chatting with him. When he saw many people running towards the physics department of Beijing University, he exchanged nces with the president.
He extinguished the cigarette in his hand and walked towards the physics department with long strides. He felt that this matter might be rted to his little ancestor.
When the two arrived outside the physics department, they saw Wen Xin walking out with a fierce aura, carrying her portfolio.
Mu Chengxi walked up to her, hugged her in his arms, and asked gently, What happened?
Im not going to school anymore. I ran into a bunch of idiots. That stupid teacher has a bad brain. Im going home. I wont go to Beijing University anymore.
Seeing Mu Chengxis actions, the president of Beijing University suddenly guessed Wen Xins identity. When he heard Wen Xins words, he realized who had offended his ancestor that he had painstakingly invited!
Miss Wen, lets have a talk. If you have any conditions, feel free to mention them. I can fulfill them all The president of Beijing University walked over to Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi with an extremely obsequious smile, hoping to persuade Wen Xin to change her mind.
No conditions. I just wont go to school anymore. Is that not eptable? Wen Xin impatiently broke free from Mu Chengxis embrace, didnt even look at the president of Beijing University, and walked away in the opposite direction.
Watching Wen Xin leave, the president of Beijing Universitys heart thumped anxiously. Who had offended this ancestor that he had worked so hard to invite? If she really didnte to school, it would cause great losses to Beijing University.
Without even ncing at Chen Yunchu lying on the ground, the president of Beijing University quickly walked into the physics department and went straight into the office to figure out what had happened and why the ancestor
refused to attend school.
What exactly happened just now? Who The president of Beijing University nced at the students surrounding the ssroom and suddenly realized that it was not the time for investigation. He needed to minimize the impact of this incident.
You guys go check on the student outside. Take her to the clinical department of the medical school for examination.
The president of Beijing Universitys words were effective. Several members of the student union immediately went out of the office, picked up Chen Yunchu, and ran toward the medical school.
After Chen Yunchu was taken away, some of the students and parents present were unusually quiet. They dared not say anything more in front of the president, fearing that their inappropriate remarks might have caused this incident and affected their childrens independent enrollment.
If youre here to register, please submit your documents. Everyone else, please leave immediately!
The president of Beijing University swept his eyes around the crowd, feeling that this matter had caused quite a stir. It seemed that he needed to remind the public rtions department of Beijing University to monitor the situation on the inte and prevent this incident from escting online, lest Wen Xin be affected before evening to this school.
Wen Xin sat in the car without saying a word. Mu Chengxi looked at her indulgently, and he didnt rush to drive the car. He simply waited quietly for Wen Xin to calm down her anger.
About twenty minutester, Wen Xin turned her head and looked at Mu Chengxi. How much cooperation is there between the Zhao family and the Liang family? If the Zhao family copses, how much loss will the Liang family suffer?
The Zhao family? The Liang family? The one who caused trouble today is from the Zhao family? Mu Chengxi!s deep eyes narrowed unconsciously at this point, emitting a dangerous aura.
l dont know. If you want the Zhao family to copse, you dont need to consider the Liang family at all. The Liang familys foundation is in Beijing and wont be affected.
Mu Chengxi pondered for a moment. Now that the Liang family had absorbed the Geng family and was expanding in Ice City, the Zhao family wouldnt affect the Liang family at all.
Can I ask what happened? How do you want to deal with the Zhao family?
Mu Chengxi gently stroked Wen Xins head, trying to soothe her restless emotions. He would handle the matter with the Zhao family.
When I went to register today, I met Wen Yuans niece. She deliberately caused trouble, and then Zhao Yuzheng came out to use me of being ipetent, saying those demeaning words that Geng Qiu had said. He even tried to make me admit I was a thief
As she spoke, Wen Xin suddenlyughed. She raised her eyebrows arrogantly at Mu Chengxi. If I were a thief, the Zhao family wouldnt even be as good as a beggar..

Upon hearing Wen Xins words, Mu Chengxi already had an idea of what Wen Xin had been through. He approached her, bent down, and lightly kissed her cheek.
Wait for me here. Ill be back in a moment.
With that, Mu Chengxi got out of the car, leaving Wen Xin puzzled about his intentions.
Sitting in the car, Wen Xin took out her bulky ck phone from her backpack, which appeared to be disassembled into a miniputer. She directly infiltrated Beijing Universitys surveince room, found the monitoring she wanted, and then exited.
Although she didnt need to go to school, she wouldnt let those who talked behind her back off easily, especially that teacher who gave Chen Yunchu the courage to act arrogantly.
As Mu Chengxi entered Beijing Universitys surveince room, he saw the director of theputer science department hurriedly approaching. When he saw Mu Chengxi, he was slightly stunned. Young Master Xi, what are you doing here in the surveince room?
I want to retrieve some surveince footage.
Mu Chengxi and Liang Jun were acquaintances; Liang Jun was Liang Luoyus cousin, so he was also very familiar with Mu Chengxi.
Young Master Xi, Im afraid it might not be possible to retrieve it for a while. I just received a call saying the surveince room has been hacked. Look, even our director rushed over
Liang Jun semi-jokingly said to Mu Chengxi, leading him to the core office of the surveince room, pushing open the door, and letting Mu Chengxi see the situation inside.
Sure enough, Beijing Universitys surveince room was in chaos.
Mu Chengxizily leaned against the door frame and looked around for a while. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to leave the surveince room.
On his way back, he also thought that Wen Xinsputer skills made it effortless for her to obtain a segment of surveince footage.
Back in the car, Wen Xin was ying a game. It seemed that her anger had dissipated somewhat, but when Mu Chengxi saw her fiercely ying the game with such passion, he knew his little ancestor was still very angry.
Shall we go eat?
Mu Chengxi didnt want to bring up the matter again to affect Wen Xins mood. He felt it didnt matter whether Wen Xin went to university or not. It was up to her where she wanted to go. However, there was no need to let off those who offended her.
Okay Wen Xins gaze remained fixed on the game,zily responding.
Mu Chengxi started the car, preparing to leave, when the president of Beijing University, apanied by a group of people from the physics department, rushed over, including Tang, the chief engineer of the physicsboratory.
When Tang saw Wen Xin sitting in the car with an unpleasant expression, he finally realized the magnitude of the trouble the physics department had caused today.
Watching the group of people rushing over, Mu Chengxi turned off the engine, rolled down the window, and didnt get out of the car.
Miss Wen, can you please give Beijing University another chance? If you dont want to go to the physics department, you can choose another major
The president of Beijing University leaned against the car window, looking at Wen Xin with a ttering expression. Now, as long as Wen Xin changed her mind, he could agree to any request she made, even if it was an exemption from exams.
Not interested anymore. I find dealing with those brainless people too tiring.
Thinking of that brainless teacher made Wen Xin lose her appetite. Without thinking, she could probably guess that the teachers position was not low; otherwise, she wouldnt dare to speak up.
Wen Xins words left the president of Beijing University momentarily speechless. After watching the surveince footage, he indeed agreed with Wen Xins statement. If it were him, he probably wouldnt be able to withstand such nder either.
Miss Wen, that teacher is aboratory technician in the physicsboratory, holding the title of associate professor at Beijing University. I am her direct supervisor, and I can assure you that from today onwards, you wont see her shadow in Beijing University or theboratory. I will have her fired.
Tang, the chief engineer, now spoke coldly behind the crowd. Just now, the president hesitated and didnt dare to give Wen Xin any assurance because this teacher didnt fall under the schools jurisdiction.
But he didnt expect Tang, who was usually stubborn, to offer such a condition.
Wen Xin turned her head to look at Tang, and her anger gradually eased. She leaned forward, picked up her portfolio from the back seat, and handed it to Tang through the car window.
I will take the entrance exam for independent enrollment tomorrow as scheduled
Tang took Wen Xins portfolio. He almost said that his familys young Miss didnt need to go through this trouble, but he didnt dare. He probably guessed that Wen Xin didnt want to reveal her identity.
Seeing Wen Xin agreeing to take the entrance exam, a weight lifted off the presidents heart. He waved to Mu Chengxi.
Young Master Mu, everything has been sorted out. You can take Miss Wen to rest for now. Please dont worry about todays incident. We will handle it!
The president of Beijing University looked at Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, speaking politely. He was truly afraid that Wen Xin would go to the neighboring university, which would tarnish their schools reputation.
Mu Chengxi nodded lightly to the group of people and closed the car window. Starting the car, he left with Wen Xin.
After Mu Chengxis car left, the leaders and professors from the physics department who had rushed over with the president of Beijing University couldnt understand Tang Ming and the presidents actions.
Dean Tang, we can understand that the president is afraid of the Mu family, but we cant understand why you made such a big concession. Moreover, the person she hit today is the niece of Dean Ma Have you considered whether Dean Ma will hold a grudge against her?
Hearing a professors words, Tang Ming suddenly chuckled. Professor Sun, have you forgotten what the students surname is? Its Wen!
Even if you dont know her, given your age, you should remember that there was a three or four-year-old girl in the physicsboratory who messed around with all sorts of things all day and blew up theboratory, right?
Although Tang Ming had never seen Wen Xin at the age of three or four, he already had a picture in his mind from Ma Wenyuans description.
You mean you mean she she is?
Professor Sun suddenly became somewhat agitated. They all knew Wen Xins identity, but they never thought that the little girl who blew up theboratory was still alive
The other professors also understood Tang Mings words. Their emotions became excited, and their eyes reddened slightly
So, its her We must seek justice for her today We must!
Yes, especially that male student. President, how can we tolerate such a student in our school who cant distinguish right from wrong? How could he say such nasty things to a girl?
Yes, how could he falsely use a girl of theft? Dont they know how important reputation is for a girl? Our physics department demands strict punishment for that male student!
The tone suddenly changed Just a few minutes ago, when the president called these professors over, they were reluctant. However, within a few minutes, they became so indignant.
What was going on?

Chapter 409 - 409: Make Wen Xin Apologize to Chen Yunchu
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
You
Principal, well handle Wen Xins matter. Ill go deal with that teacher now. After Chief Engineer Tang finished speaking, he hurriedly left.
Several professors behind him also followed Chief Engineer Tang and left, leaving behind a bewildered principal standing in the parking lot contemting life.
What whats going on?
After having lunch with Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi didnt take her back to the old mansion. Instead, he drove straight to Zhn. He felt that Wen Xin was not in a good mood and didnt want her to be disturbed.
Back at home, Wen Xin went straight to Mu Chengxis study and used hisputer to investigate information about the Zhao family.
Mu Chengxizily sat on the nearby sofa with a ss of honey water beside him, intending to offer it to Wen Xin, but she seemed busy, so he didnt disturb her.
How do you n to handle the Zhao familys matter? When Wen Xin seemed to be almost done with her busyness and was looking at theputer screen with a cold gaze, Mu Chengxi calmly asked her.
The matter concerning the Zhao family naturally cant be left for the Zhao family to resolve themselves. The path Uncle Zhao has taken wont work. Of course, its also inappropriate for the Liang family to handle it. The Liang family is Old Madam Zhaos maternal family. I n to have Yuan Junye do it
As Wen Xin mentioned Yuan Junye, the atmosphere became somewhat tense. She raised her head to look in Mu Chengxis direction and indeed, his expression had darkened.
If not Yuan Junye, who do you think is suitable? Seeing Mu Chengxis expression, Wen Xin already guessed that if she continued, Mu Chengxi would be unhappy.
Wen Xin stood up, walked to Mu Chengxis side, and sat down next to him, naturally embracing him.
The projects managed by the Yuan family are simr to those of the Zhao family, and I dont have any special rtionship with Yuan Junye, just a simple cooperation. You dont need to think too much about it.
Mu Chengxi nced down at Wen Xin, who was embracing his waist and leaning against his chest, and in an instant, any lingering resentment in his heart disappeared. This little girl had him wrapped around her finger.
I do indeed have some opinions about Yuan Junye. My girlfriend always needs others help. This doesnt make me very happy
Additionally, the Yuan family isnt the most suitable choice. The Yuan family is already on the path of decline. This is also the reason why the Yuan family called Yuan Junye back.
However, even though Yuan Junye had been home for so long, he still hadnt gained control of the Yuan family. It can only mean that the Yuan family is waiting for an opportunity to take control of thepany in Yuan Junyes hands to rejuvenate the family, rather than truly wanting to hand over the Yuan family to Yuan Junye.
If the Zhao family is taken over by the Yuan family, it will only make the Yuan family stronger. Yuan Junyes chances of taking over the Yuan family will be smaller and smaller.
Mu Chengxi objectively analyzed the Yuan familys situation for Wen Xin without any personal grudges.
I know youre feeling a bit agitated right now, but the Yuan family isnt the best choice. Lets leave this matter to my sister. Herpany has no connections with the powers in Beijing or the Zhao family. They wont know whos behind it, not even a chance to beg for mercy
Herpany has no ties to the powers in Beijing and will not affect the bnce of power. If you agree, I can arrange for my sister to handle it now.
Mu Chengxi had already figured out a n for Wen Xin on the way back. If she had a way, then he would let her handle it. If things got out of hand, he could deal with itter.
Wen Xin, in Mu Chengxis embrace, rubbed her slightly sore temples. Then lets arrange it ording to what you said. Its too troublesome. I dont want to deal with it anymore. Im so tired. Carry me back to my room for a nap.
Wen Xin hadnt been in the best mental state recently, and after encountering so many troublesome matters in the morning, she was truly exhausted. Since Mu Chengxi was handling it, she was content to let him take care of everything.
Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin back to the bedroom and walked into the cloakroom, leaving Wen Xin to change into her home clothes herself. He walked out of the room to make a cup of milk for Wen Xin.
Meanwhile, at the hospital
News of Zhao Yuzhengs injury quickly spread to Ice City. Zhao Yuzhengs parents took a flight upon hearing the news, but they hadnt arrived in Beijing yet.
Only Zhao Yuzhengs brothers were waiting for him outside the operating room.
Apanying Zhao Yuzheng to the hospital was Chen Yunchu. All of Chen Yunchus family members were in Beijing. After learning about her injury, Chen Yunchus family hurriedly rushed over, including the Ma family.
Old Master Ma sat on a bench in the corridor, ring angrily at Wen Zhimo, who sat beside him.
The Ma family had long forgotten who they relied on to reach their current status. They always wanted to control the proud Wen Zhimo.
Wen Zhimo, I heard that your niece was the one who hurt Yunchu? How dare they? The Ma family has raised so many sons for the Wen family. They dont even show gratitude, and now they darey a hand on my granddaughter. You make that wild girl from the countrysidee over and apologize to my granddaughter right now.
Old Master Mas gaze at Wen Zhimo was extremely fierce. If looks could kill, he would have used his eyes to scratch Wen Zhimo.
Chen Yunchu was the treasure he had raised in the palm of his hand. How could he let a wild girl bully her?
Heh, Old Master, are you talking to me? Havent you forgotten that the Ma family owes everything to the Wen family? What do you mean by the Ma family raising sons for the Wen family? Everything the Ma family enjoys now originally belonged to the Wen family.
When Wen Zhimo first came over, she felt a bit guilty. She knew that Wen Xin had a bad temper and was prone to impulsiveness from a young age.
When she heard about Chen Yunchu being injured by Wen Xin, she even thought aboutpensation. However, after hearing what the Ma family said, she suddenly felt that if Chen Yunchu hadnt done anything excessive, Wen Xin wouldnt have acted.
Wen Zhimo grew up in Independent State. If it werent for Ma Wenyuans face, she wouldnt even look at the Ma family. It was unexpected that the Ma family, which had enjoyed a good life, would be so ignorant. It was ridiculous.
Wen Zhimo, is this your attitude? Youre now part of the Ma family. The Wen family is long gone! You came to our Ma family as a burden, and Ma Wenyuan overlooked it out of generosity. But it doesnt mean you can do whatever you want with your status in our Ma family!
And as for that wild niece of yours, were already preparing to report this to the police. Well have her locked up.
The woman speaking on the side was Ma Wenyuans sister, Chen Yunchus mother. Her daughter was injured like that, and all she could think about was how to deal with that wild girl.
Now, hearing Wen Zhimo speak like this, she couldnt contain her resentment and wanted to fight Wen Zhimo..

Hmph Hearing Ma Wenxius words, Wen Zhimo sneered, You know better than anyone what your daughter did, dont you? You cant tell whos right and whos wrong in this matter? If you want to call the police, then go ahead. If youre not afraid of making a fool of yourself, go ahead!
Wen Zhimos mind was particrly clear at the moment. Although she arrived a bitte and didnt know what had happened, she was clear that if they had a legitimate reason, they would have made a huge fuss about it long ago. Now they were threatening her with the police? It wasughable.
Wen Zhimo, what are you talking about? You married into the Ma family, so youre part of the Ma family now. The Wen family is long gone! The head of the Research Institute is my brother and has no connection to your Wen family whatsoever
You shut up!
Just then, Ma Wenyuan stormed in from outside. After receiving a call from Director Tang, he came out of theboratory but couldnt reach Wen Xins phone.
Everyone was overjoyed to see Ma Wenyuan. His presence here indicated his concern for Chen Yunchu. They felt that Wen Zhimos good days were over.
Wenyuan, you came just in time. When Yunchu was brought to the hospital, she was already half dead. You must speak up for her. Shes your niece; you cant let her be bullied!
Ma Wenxiu grabbed Ma Wenyuans sleeve, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at him, appearing on the verge of fainting.
Ma Wenyuan gave Ma Wenxiu a cold look, but before he could speak, Old Master Ma, sitting on the bench, forcefully tapped the ground with his cane and spoke sternly.
Wenyuan, your nieces matter cannot be let go like this. The Ma family has done everything for the Wen family, raising their sons. Now that wild girl has returned and dared toy hands on your niece, we cannot overlook this ingratitude. The Ma family cannot tolerate ungrateful people!
Old Master Mas wordspletely infuriated Wen Zhimo. It was the first time she had seen someone so shameless. What did he mean by the Wen family being ungrateful?
Wasnt it the Ma family relying on the strength of the Wen family to reach their current status? Who exactly was being ungrateful?
Wen Zhimo clenched her hands tightly together, about to say something, but was stopped by Ma Wenyuan, who grabbed her wrist.
Dad, what you said is correct. Indeed, we cannot tolerate ungrateful people
Ma Wenyuans words had juste out of his mouth when the eyes of everyone in the Ma family lit up. They had been worried that Ma Wenyuan would speak up for Wen Zhimo. They had no chance to speak. Now, it seemed that Ma Wenyuan was siding with the Ma family.
Wen Zhimo squinted at Ma Wenyuan, waiting for him to continue speaking. If he said anything that was disrespectful to the Wen family, she wouldnt hold back.
So, from today onwards, all members of the Ma family will move back to our ancestral home. The property rights of the manor and vi we currently reside in belong to the Wen family. We have no right to live there.
Zhimo, you should also go home and pack up. You married me, so youre part of the Ma family. Go back and live in the room Ive prepared for you in the Ma family.
Also, Big Brother, from today onwards, the Research Institute will sever all biopharmaceutical ties with yourpany. We cannot use anything belonging to the Wen family, let alone abuse the Wen family.
Oh, I forgot to tell you. That wild girl you mentioned, the real person in charge of the physics and biologybs, all procedures werepleted a year ago when she turned eighteen. Im just an employee in theb and dont have as much power as you imagine.
Ma Wenyuans words shocked everyone, especially Old Master Ma. He couldnt believe that Ma Wenyuan would do such a thing. How could anyone be so foolish as to give up such an important thing voluntarily?
Old Master Ma clutched his chest, pointing at Ma Wenyuan with his finger.
You you you unfilial son the Ma family the Ma family is ruined because of you!
No, its you who forgot what the Ma family was originally like. If it werent for
Mr. Wens contributions, how could the Ma family have its current status?
But how did you treat the Wen family? Wen Huai is Mr. Wens son. You called him a burden, said he was living off others, and imed that the Ma family took him in?
If Wen Huai hadnt been with the Ma family, do you think you could live this kind of luxurious life now? Ungrateful, who exactly forgot their true identity?
After learning the truth, Ma Wenyuan was filled with anger. Hearing how the Ma family spoke to Wen Zhimo made his rage uncontroble.
If the Ma family wasnt taught a lesson, no one would know who to provoke and who was untouchable!
Wenyuan this matter can be discussedter. Dont be angry
Ma Wencai, Ma Wenyuans elder brother, who had been silent all along, stood beside him, trying to calm his emotions and make him overlook the situation.
Theres no need to discusster. Todays events at Jing University have had a significant impact. The principal has decided to reject Chen Yunchus admission. Even if she were the top scorer in the college entrance examination, no department at Jing University would ept her. Be prepared for that!
Holding Wen Zhimos hand, Ma Wenyuan left the hospital without looking back, even ignoring Old Master Ma, who was gasping for air and clutching his chest.
Dad, look at Wenyuan
Dad, is Second Brother really angry? What he said is it true?
At this moment, Old Master Mapletely lost his former domineering and vibrant demeanor. He pointed at Ma Wenyuan, Look at what a good daughter youve raised. Shes offended someone. Now the Ma family the Ma family is probably finished
Old Master Ma vividly remembered how he had opposed Ma Wenyuans entry into the physicsboratory back then and how he had tried to please Ma Wenyuan after the wen couples death, which had led to the Ma familys current status. Now everything was over.
Ma Wenyuan had no attachment to the Ma family in the first ce. Would he really follow through with what he said they were about to be kicked out of the vi area by Ma Wenyuan.
Thinking of this, Old Master Ma clutched his chest, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Dad Dad dont scare us
Doctor, doctore and save my dad, quickly!
In an instant, the corridor outside the operating room became chaotic. Some were shouting, some were calling for help. Doctors and nurses heard the cries and rushed over.
Ma Wenyuan walked out of the hospital with Wen Zhimo. There was a sense of guilt in his eyes. Zhimo, Im sorry. I know youve been enduring my father and sister for me. Dont worry; no one will trouble you anymore for my sake, and they wont take advantage of the Wen family anymore..

Still feeling touched by Ma Wenyuans actions, Wen Zhimo wrapped her arms around Ma Wenyuan and leaned against his chest. Are we really going back to your Mas familys old house and living in the servants quarters? Your two sons and daughter probably wont agree.
Ma Wenyuan gently smiled at Wen Zhimos coquetry. Those three kids wouldnt adapt well to that environment indeed. Lets forget about it and just stay at home.
So, what should we do now? Wen Zhimo looked up at Ma Wenyuan, unsure if he still needed to deal with matters at the research institute.
Lets go see Miss Wen. She had a big tantrum at the University today Ma Wenyuan walked towards his car while informing Wen Zhimo about what happened at Beijing University.
Hearing about Wen Xins distress, Wen Zhimo felt that she had wasted her affection on Chen Yunchu for so many years. It was unfair how they treated Wen Xin and Wen Huai.
Miss Wen blocked my number. Give her a call to try. Although she and you dont get along well, she has always been respectful to you.
Realizing that Wen Xins grades were very good and that her academic achievements and talents in piano and medicine were outstanding, Wen Zhimo realized she had been biased against her all along and had never cared about her.
Ill try calling her. If I cant get through, I wont disturb her for now. Let her calm down first.
Okay, lets try calling her first
Ma Wenyuan understood Wen Xins temper. He could have contacted Mu Chengxi directly, as he heard they were together earlier, but he didnt dare to, fearing Wen Xins wrath.
After Wen Zhimo dialed the phone, it rang twice before being answered. The voice on the other end was a males.
Young Marshal Mu? Wen Zhimo was somewhat surprised that Mu Chengxi answered the call. She thought her call might be rejected but didnt expect Mu Chengxi to pick up.
Upon hearing that Mu Chengxi had answered the call, Ma Wenyuan took the phone from Wen Zhimos hand. Young Marshal Mu, how is Wen Xin doing?
Shes sleeping, still angry. Shell be taking the entrance exam for self-enrollment tomorrow. Ill personally handle that matter.
Mu Chengxis words were clear. Anyone who angered Wen Xin wouldnt be spared.
Looking at the phone after hanging up, Ma Wenyuans expression turned serious. He looked at Wen Zhimo. Mu Chengxi is going to take action. Im afraid the Chen family wont be able to hold on
When Mu Chengxi answered the call, Ma Wenyuan had a premonition of impending trouble. He knew Wen Xin wouldnt touch the Ma family out of respect for him, but Mu Chengxi wouldnt hold back. The first to suffer would be the Chen family.
In that case Wen Zhimo thought of Ma Wenyuans assertive sister, Ma Wenxiu, and felt they didnt deserve sympathy.
Lets go home. Well wait for these people toe knocking on our door. Your sister will definitely cause a scene again Its really a headache.
Seemingly ustomed to Ma Wenxius tantrums, Wen Zhimo felt somewhat helpless. She couldnt understand how Ma Wenyuan, who was elegant and refined, could have such a sister.
When Wen Xin woke up, it was already past 8 p.m. The sky outside was dark. Wen Xin heard voices in the study. She walked to the door and gently pushed it open a crack. Mu Bei and Mu Chengxi were talking inside, seemingly discussing something important.
Seeing Wen Xin awake, Mu Chengxi stood up and walked to her side, holding her hand, which felt slightly cold. He furrowed his brows.
Why didnt you wear a coat beforeing out?
I didnt feel cold. What were you guys talking about? Wen Xin looked at Mu Bei. She knew that after Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu were injured, Gu Yanzhe hadnt returned to handle the aftermath, so Mu Bei was busy. His appearance here was somewhat unexpected to Wen Xin.
About the Chen family. Do you want to take a look? Mu Chengxi held Wen Xins hand and sat down on the sofa, taking the documents Mu Bei brought and handing them to Wen Xin.
After reading them, Wen Xins lips curled up slightly, and she smiled faintly. This Chen family isnt much of a big n. Their daughter is just too arrogant.
Looking at the documents, Wen Xin felt that the Chen familys assets werent worth looking at. Seeing how arrogant Chen Yunchu was, she had thought that the Chen family was at least on par with the Liang family.
The Chen family rose to prominence entirely thanks to the Ma family. Chen Yunchu can be so arrogant only because the Ma family gave her the courage. I heard that even Mr. Mas two sons and daughter dont have the same status in the Ma family as Chen Yunchu does.
Mu Bei stood up when Wen Xin approached, standing respectfully to the side as he answered Wen Xins question.
Its really interesting. He doesnt dote on his sons child but his daughters child. I dont understand. I dont understand. Its getting cold. Just bankrupt them directly!
Wen Xin had no sympathy for insignificant people, especially troublemakers.
You handle it. Let the Chen familys business be handled by Chen Lingxiao. There must be some personal grudges between them, so he wont show any mercy.
Upon hearing Mu Chengxis instructions, Mu Bei looked at Mu Chengxi. It seemed that the real schemer in their family was Mu Chengxi. Letting Chen Lawyer handle it meant that the Chen family would have no good ending. He was truly ruthless.
Alright, Ill go handle it now. Master Xi, the butler from the Mu family called ten minutes ago, saying that the Old Madam asked for food to be sent to you and Miss Wen. Dont forget to ept it. Ill go deal with the Chen familys affairs first.
Okay. Mu Chengxi responded indifferently. He had originally nned to take Wen Xin out for dinner, but since food had been sent from the old mansion, he decided not to bother Wen Xin with going out.
Sitting back on the sofa in a different position, Wen Xin picked up her phone from the table and nced at it. There were a few messages from Chu
Yunxuan.
As she was about to reply to the messages, she saw a notification about a call from someone in her cklist. She checked her contacts and saw a missed call from Wen Zhimo. The call had been answered.
Wen Xin turned her head to look at Mu Chengxi, who was watching her. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, Did you answer my aunts call? What did she want?
Ma Wenyuan asked her to call. I didnt ask him what it was about. I just told him I would personally deal with the Chen family.
Mu Chengxis concise words matched his demeanor. Wen Xin chuckled lightly, then leaned against Mu Chengxis side. Ma Wenyuan has actually been quite good to me. I didnt want to involve him before. I just wanted to give him some face.
Not retaliating against the Ma family was already giving him face. Chen
Yunchu grew up by Old Master Mas side. Her audacity is mostly due to the Ma familys influence..

If it werent for the influence of the Ma family, how could they dare to say that Wen Huai is living off someone else? My little brother-inw isnt someone anyone can bully!
Looking up at Mu Chengxi defending Wen Huai, Wen Xin smiled softly. You admit hes your little brother-inw, but I wonder if he admits youre his brother-inw.
Wen Xin knew that Wen Huai was no longer opposed to Mu Chengxi, but she couldnt help teasing him.
Mu Chengxi embraced Wen Xin, bringing her into his arms and letting her sit on hisp.
Lowering his head, Mu Chengxi lightly bit Wen Xins neck. Whether he admits it or not doesnt matter. What matters is that his sister has epted my familys betrothal gifts, so he has no chance of running away!
yfully biting Wen Xins ear, his restless hand wandered beneath her clothes
Then, their intimate moment was interrupted by a noisy doorbell
After arriving in Beijing, Zhao Yuzhengs parents went directly to the school to demand an exnation for their sons condition and threatened to call the police if they didnt get one.
Theirmotion attracted a crowd at the school, and eventually, the principal had no choice but to invite them into his office.
Principal, our child is here to study. Being assaulted like this is uneptable. We demand an exnation from the school!
If the school cant give us an exnation, well go to the police, and well also publicize this matter online!
Zhao Yuzhengs mother was forceful. Seeing her son so badly injured pained her deeply.
Especially after hearing the doctor say that Zhao Yuzheng might never be able to do delicate work again, she couldnt ept it. She vowed to find the person who hurt her son and make them pay dearly.
In the principals office, the principal didnt show any face to Zhaos parents. Instead, he showed them the video where Zhao Yuzheng ndered Wen Xin.
This is the person who harmed your son. I want to emphasize one thing: it was your son who insulted the girl first, so she retaliated. Is it polite to randomly use a girl of being a thief?
The principals words didnt faze Zhaos parents psychologically. However, when they saw the girl in the video clearly, they were shocked. They never expected Zhao Yuzheng to provoke Wen Xin again.
This probably couldnt be resolved simply by disabling an arm. The incident with the Geng family was still fresh in their memories.
Principal, is this this girl Wen Xin? Zhao Hongyuan looked at the video, pointing at the girl in it, tentatively asking.
Yes, its her. Zhao Yuzheng knows her, and I believe you also know her. Her identity is somewhat special. If you want to report to the police
The principal of Beijing University was shrewd. Seeing the expressions of Zhaos parents, he knew this matter could be easily resolved. Wen Xin seemed to be someone they couldnt afford to provoke.
Principal, that
Zhao Hongyuan looked at the principal of Beijing University, feeling somewhatplicated. He didnt know if he should take the opportunity to apologize to Wen Xin
The incident with the Geng family seemed sudden, but anyone with a clear mind could guess who was behind it.
The principal of Beijing University stared at Zhao Hongyuan with keen eyes. Mr. Zhao, we apologize for Zhao Yuzhengs injury. If you need to report it to the police, please do so. As for your idea of publicizing it online, we respect your opinion and approach. How would you like us to cooperate with you?
No, no, no, Principal, thats not what we meant. You see, would you mind helping us contact Miss Wen? We want to apologize to her on behalf of Zhao
Yuzheng
Zhao Hongyuan suddenly changed his tone. They knew they couldnt afford to provoke Mu Chengxis family, so they needed to appease his anger before he acted against the Zhao family.
Mr. Zhao, Im afraid we cant help with that. Due to this incident, Miss Wen Xin has decided not to participate in the independent enrollment. Therefore, this matter needs to be resolved by yourselves.
The principal of Beijing University wouldnt allow them to disturb Wen Xin. Tomorrow was the day of the independent enrollment exam, and if Wen Xin found out that her contact information had been leaked by him and got angry, refusing to take the exam would be troublesome.
If you have nothing else, its gettingte. I suggest you both head back. My time is quite precious!
The principal directly ushered them out. Zhao Yuzhengs parents also felt embarrassed to linger any longer. They stood up and walked out of the principals office, looking dazed.
On the way back, Zhao Hongyuan remained silent. He couldnt understand why Zhao Yuzheng had acted so foolishly and provoked Wen Xin again. Hadnt he learned from the previous lesson?
When Zhao Hongyuan and his wife returned to the hospital, they received a call from thepany. Their foreignpanys bid had failed, and the cooperatingpany, unwilling to continue, withdrew all investments. The entirepany was paralyzed
After hearing the assistants words, Zhao Hongyuan copsed onto a bench in the corridor. His mind couldnt process anything
Just then, a fat man stormed into the ward next to Zhao Yuzhengs, and soon they heard loud scolding from that ward.
What have you done?! What trouble have you caused?! Howe mypany was sealed within an afternoon?! All my assets are frozen! Chen Yunchu, what have you done?!
Chen Yunchu, who have you offended? Why cant I find anything? Dont you know? Youve ruined the Chen family!
From the voice, one could hear the mans raging fury, as if he wanted to tear apart whoever had caused him trouble.
The mans hoarse voice made Zhao Hongyuan, who was in a daze, instantly alert. He looked towards the direction of the ward, wondering who it could be. Was the person who offended Wen Xin next door?
What did he just hear? Thepany was sealed? Assets were frozen? Would he also end up like the Geng family?
With his phone in hand, Zhao Hongyuan hurriedly left.
He needed to call Old Madam Zhao and ask her to beg Wen Xin to spare the Zhao family. The Zhao family could promise to keep a low profile in the future.
Seeing Zhao Hongyuan rushing out in a daze, his wife realized something was wrong and hurriedly followed. If Zhao Hongyuan got into trouble, then the Zhao family would bepletely finished.
As Father Chen looked at Chen Yunchu lying on the bed with bruises around his neck, there was no hint of pity in his eyes, only anger.
Tell me! Who have you offended? Who could bring the Chen family down to hell in just one afternoon? What have you done?

Looking at Chen Yunchu crying on the bed, Yunchus father wished he could pull her up from the bed and throw her out directly. He didnt know what good it would do to keep such trouble around!
Chen Jiangnian, thats enough. The deed is done. Whats the use of pushing her to death? What you need to do is find a solution. Go and beg Ma Wenyuan; youve invested so much money in his research institute, and hell surely help you. All these troubles were caused by that girl from Wen Zhimos countryside!
Ma Wenxiu pushed Chen Jiangnian, hoping he would stop pressuring Chen Yunchu. Chen Yunchu was already deeply wounded, and she couldnt bear to see Chen Jiangnan ming her again.
A girl from the countryside? Ma Wenxiu, dont be so naive! How could a wild girl from the countryside cause such amotion? Do you know Chen Lingxiao, thewyer? Even Chen Lingxiao is involved in this matter. Hes part of the Mu family circle. How could a wild girl provoke the Mu family? Are you joking?
Chen Jiangnian only found a connection between this matter and Chen Lingxiao on his way here. He immediately thought of the Mu family, but he didnt know where he had offended them. The only thing he could think of was that Chen Yunchu offended someone she shouldnt have.
Husband, is this matter so serious? Ma Wenyuan wanted to kick us out of the estate this morning, saying that the person in control of the two major research institutes in Beijing is that wild girl. We thought he was joking
Hearing Ma Wenxius words, Chen Jiangnian, who had just calmed down, exploded. He looked at Ma Wenxiu with an incredulous expression.
Ma Wenyuan really handed the two major research institutes back to the Wen family? If thats the case, what position does the Ma family have in Beijing? You cant say such things casually. If this spreads, not only will there be no chance for the Chen family to turn things around, but those who want to take advantage of this to crush the Ma family will seed!
Is the situation really that serious?
Ma Wenxiu didnt realize the gravity of the situation. She thought Ma Wenyuan was just bluffing; who was in control didnt matter much as long as Ma Wenyuan was in charge; everything would be under his control.
You, youre just a fool. No wonder you raised such a brainless daughter!
What did you say? Chen Jiangnian, you dare call me a fool and insult my daughter, you Ill scratch you to death today!
Ma Wenxiu had always been fierce, especially after the rise of the Ma family. She had no redeeming qualities and had a particrly bad temper. If things didnt go her way, she would resort to violence, just like now, behaving like a shrew.
In the end Chen Jiangnian no longer tolerated Ma Wenxiu. He raised his hand and pped her directly in the face, sending her flying.
You how dare you hit me Ill fight you to death!
Ma Wenxiu was like a warrior unwilling to admit defeat, rushing towards Chen Jiangnian again, engaging in another physical fight with him.
Watching this scene from her bed, Chen Yunchu med all the mistakes on Wen Xin. If it werent for Wen Xin, there wouldnt be so much trouble.
The next morning, Wen Xin turned over and found the person on the bed missing. She nced at the time, got up from the bed, and went into the bathroom to freshen up.
After finishing her morning routine, Wen Xin changed into a simple base shirt and a pair of fitted jeans, entuating her long and straight thighs.
After finishing her morning routine, Wen Xin changed into a simple base shirt and a pair of fitted jeans, entuating her long, straight thighs.
As she was putting on her pants, she noticed the anklet on her ankle. She wondered if it was time to give Mu Chengxi a New Years gift.
Coming downstairs, Wen Xin saw Mu Chengxi cooking porridge in the kitchen. She walked to the kitchen door andzily leaned against the door frame, watching Mu Chengxi busy inside. A warm feeling washed over her as she observed the peacefulness of this life.
Hearing the movement behind him, Mu Chengxi turned around and saw Wen Xin staring at him with a gentle and indulgent smile.
Perfect timing. The porridge I made for you is just ready. Wait outside. Ill bring it to you.
Instead of leaving, Wen Xin hugged Mu Chengxi from behind and nuzzled her head against his back. Thank you
Hearing Wen Xins gratitude, Mu Chengxi unconsciously furrowed his brows. This sudden gratitude seemed abnormal.
Whats wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Mu Chengxi turned off the stove and turned around to face the little vixen in front of him.
Its nothing. I just suddenly felt grateful to you. Wen Xin let go of Mu Chengxi and looked up at him, blinking her eyes. She wouldnt admit that she was touched by Mu Chengxi.
Mu Chengxi indulgently looked at Wen Xin. Since she didnt want to say, he naturally wouldnt force her. He lowered his head and nted a kiss on Wen Xins red lips.
Wait for me outside; Ill be quick.
After breakfast, Wen Xin rode in Mu Chengxis car to Beijing University. Mu Chengxi arrogantly drove the car directly into the campus.
Sitting in the car, Wen Xin watched the people arriving for exams on the campus, her pretty eyebrows slightly furrowing, and then she smiled lightly. Youth is really good! They all look so innocent and cute!
Hearing Wen Xins sigh, Mu Chengxi turned his head to look at her, his deep eyes narrowing slightly. Miss Wen, youre only neen. Isnt feeling nostalgic like this a bit premature?
Wen Xin nced sideways at Mu Chengxi, raised her eyebrows, and said nothing, just giving a faint smile.
Seeing Wen Xins smile, Mu Chengxi seemed to sense her disdain for his age. He parked the car in the parking space and dominantly wrapped his arm around Wen Xins waist, bringing her into his embrace.
Little girl, I warn you, dont despise me for being old. Otherwise, Ill be very sad and upset!
From being domineering to suddenly acting spoiled, Mu Chengxis actions left Wen Xin momentarily stunned.
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi acting cute and turned her head away in disgust, refusing tomunicate with Mu Chengxi. Youre so disgusting. I feel like throwing up my breakfast!
Seeing Wen Xins obvious disdain, Mu Chengxi burst into clearughter. He raised his hand and gently pinched Wen Xins cheek.
Alright, I wont tease you anymore. Go take your exam. Ill wait here for you. Okay. Wen Xin gently pushed away Mu Chengxis hand from pinching her cheek,zily replied, then climbed down from Mu Chengxis body and swiftly opened the passengers door, getting out of the car.
As Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xins departing figure, his gaze fell on Wen Xins hand. She was holding only a pencil and a pen, nothing else.
Was this little girl really so arrogant? She only brought two pens for the exam? He remembered clearly that he had prepared an exam bag for herst night
Wen Xin entered the examination room right on time. The invigtor nced at the two pens in her hand and automatically concluded that she was just here to have fun..

After checking her examination card and ID, the invigtor spoke disdainfully, I feel that people without real talent and knowledge dont need toe here to waste the countrys resources and add trouble to the teachers and schools.
Wen Xin seemed to ignore the teachers wordspletely. She walked straight to her seat, sat down, and crossed her legs, disying a boss-like demeanor.
Wen Xins actions attracted the attention of many people, and those around couldnt help but look at her a few more times.
Such a beautiful person with such a strong presence is really rare. They seized the opportunity to take a few more nces.
Alright, stop looking at those who seek poprity. The exam paper isprehensive,sting three hours. Cheating during the exam is prohibited, or youll be banned for life.
As the invigtor finished speaking, her gaze fell on Wen Xin. She felt that Wen Xin was the kind of student who was preparing to cheat
Wen Xinpletely ignored the strange nces. It didnt concern her what the teacher thought of her.
During the exam, the invigtor who was biased against Wen Xin kept standing beside her, watching her closely, hoping to catch her cheating.
After staring at Wen Xin for half an hour, she found that Wen Xin waspletely different from what she had imagined. Wen Xins way of answering questions was very unique; she didnt like multiple-choice or fill-in-the-nk questions. She started with the big questions.
Within half an hour, Wen Xin had alreadypleted half of the twelve big questions in the second paper. The whole process was smooth and the calctions were even simpler than she had thought.
The invigtor squinted her eyes. She felt that she might have made a wrong judgment. This extremely beautiful student was not a cker. On the contrary, she might be a genius.
No longer looking at Wen Xins calctions, she felt doubtful about her own abilities after seeing Wen Xins calctions. The powerful calctions made her tempted to use a calctor, but she only nced casually, and the results were already out.
Returning to the podium, another invigtor leaned over and whispered,
What? Is her writing so poor? Cant bear to look at it anymore?
No, its too brilliant. I noticed her name; when the marking is done, we must find a way to take out her paper. Such a paper can be used as a model paper. Its amazing.
This was the first time Teacher Shen had heard such high praise for a student.
The teacher beside her couldnt help but nce at Teacher Shen, then looked at
Wen Xin, who was seriously answering the questions.
She felt that the girl seemed familiar, but she couldnt remember where she had seen her before.
Two hourster, Wen Xin filled in all the answer sheets and raised her hand to signal the invigtor.
Ms. Shen thought Wen Xin encountered some difficulties. After changing her view of Wen Xin, her attitude towards her improved significantly. She quickly walked to Wen Xins side. Student, do you have any problems?
Im turning in my paper
When Wen Xins cold voice uttered these words, all the students in the examination room, without exception, looked at the clock on the wall.
There was still an hour left before the end of the exam. Wasnt it too early to turn in the paper at this time?
Are you sure you want to turn in your paper? Dont you need to check it again?
Im sure After saying that, Wen Xin stood up, pushed her paper to the teacher, took the two pens she had brought, and walked out of the ssroom in a very casual manner.
Teachers and students in the examination room began to doubt life as they watched Wen Xins back.
Noticing the change in the attitudes of other examinees in the ss, the teacher reminded everyone in time that there was still an hour left and everyone should make good use of the time to answer the questions.
Teacher Shen took Wen Xins answer sheet and paper back to the podium and, ording to regtions, properly ced Wen Xins paper in the file bag.
As Wen Xin walked out of the ssroom, the corridor was quiet, with only the sound of her footsteps. When passing other exam rooms, people sitting by the window couldnt help but look at the corridor.
When they saw Wen Xins appearance, they became even more serious about answering the questions. They were determined to study hard to attend the same school as such a stunning ssmate.
When Wen Xin walked out of the teaching building, she saw Mu Chengxi standing in the corridor next to the parking lot, chatting andughing with a girl.
Wen Xin stopped in her tracks, narrowing her eyes slightly with some dissatisfaction.
If she remembered correctly, Mu Chengxi had never let down his guard.
Someone who could make Mu Chengxi chat andugh must be extraordinary.
After standing by for a while, Wen Xin casually threw the pens in her hand into the nearby trash can, turned around, and walked in the opposite direction.
At this moment, Wen Xin felt a bit depressed in her heart, not veryfortable. She didnt understand why she felt this way, but whenever she saw Mu Chengxi getting along harmoniously with other girls, she felt ufortable.
Wen Xin wandered around Beijing University alone. Perhaps because it was the day of the self-enrollment exam, parents were not allowed to enter the school, making it unusually quiet.
Little Uncle-Master Little Uncle-Master Zhuge Jingming got out of the car and saw Wen Xin strolling around the school. He twisted his fat body and hurried to catch up with Wen Xins steps.
Hearing the familiar voice, Wen Xin frowned and turned her head, looking at the breathless Zhuge Jingming. She stopped in her tracks and waited for him to catch up.
Zhuge Jingming looked at Wen Xin standing still andined a little, Little Uncle-Master, considering my age, you should show some consideration and take a few steps forward. You made me run so far.
Wen Xin squinted at Zhuge Jingming, who was panting slightly, Its already good enough that Im waiting here for you. Dont ask for too much. Whats up?
Do you need something?
Little Uncle-Master, you must be very good at Western medicine, right? Theres a difficult surgery at the research institute, and they invited me to take a look. But you know, I havent touched a scalpel in a long time. Can youe with me and help if possible?
Zhuge Jingming looked at Wen Xin with a ttering smile. He had intended to ask Wen Xin directly for help, but considering that Wen Xin was taking the self-enrollment exam today, he didnt want to disturb her. He didnt expect to encounter Wen Xin on campusthis was really fate.
Wen Xin nced at the time. She didnt want to go home now, so she nodded and agreed to Zhuge Jingmings request, Alright, lets go and see what the problem is that even the research institute finds difficult.
Seeing Wen Xin agree to his request, Zhuge Jingmings face lit up with a radiant smile. Suddenly, he remembered something and noticed that Wen Xin wasnt carrying her backpack.
Little Uncle-Master, wheres your lifesaving backpack?

At home, who brings a backpack to an exam? Didnt you say you were going to use a scalpel? Then you dont need a backpack, Wen Xin raised her eyebrows at Zhuge Jingming, her attitude extremely confident.
Seeing Wen Xins confident demeanor, Zhuge Jingmings inner unease
gradually calmed down. He turned his head and thought for a moment. Since
his Youngest Uncle had agreed, she must have a way to handle it.
Zhuge Jingming had the driver bring the car over. He respectfully opened the door for Wen Xin, and without any hesitation, Wen Xin got into the car.
Together with Zhuge Jingming, they headed to the Medical Research Institute.
As they walked into the Medical Research Institute, a group of researchers from the Medical School surrounded Zhuge Jingming. Among them were Sun Miao and Dean Li Tong.
Mr. Zhuge, youre finally here. This case is really tricky. We contacted medical experts abroad, but the expert and her team have another surgery at the moment and cante over. So, were asking if there are any traditional Chinese medicine methods to dy the situation for a while.
As they spoke, the group walked straight into a special ward in the medical school. Wen Xin followed behind. No one paid attention to her, assuming she was just an assistant following Zhuge Jingming.
As Wen Xin walked into the ward, she knew at first nce that the patients problem was likely a vascr malformation in the brainstem.
Judging from the patients current condition, the vascr malformation had likely reached a stage where it could rupture at any time. It was impossible to predict when a massive hemorrhage in the brainstem would ur.
Leaningzily against the door frame, Wen Xin observed the patients condition, quietly listening to the discussions of the medical experts around her.
Ten minutes passed, and still, no reasonable solution was proposed.
At that moment, Wen Xins phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone from her pocket and saw that it was a call from Mu Chengxi. Without any hesitation, she hung up the phone.
At this point, all eyes were on her, with serious gazes tinged with a hint of disdain, seeming very displeased with her presence here.
Didnt anyone tell you to silence your phone when entering the Medical Research Institute?
Sorry, its my first time here and I didnt pay attention, Wen Xin replied nonchntly, her tone showing a hint of impatience.
Wen Xin gave a cold nce at the middle-aged man in his forties who scolded her, feeling that these people didnt have much ability and were full of nonsense rules.
You The man didnt expect Wen Xin to be so arrogant. He had always been respected in the research institute, and Wen Xin was the first to talk to him in such a manner.
Wait youre the doctor who cured Old Madam Mu, right? Its really great that youre here!
Li Tong recognized Wen Xin from her tone of voice in an instant. He had always been amazed by Wen Xins medical skills. Although Old Madam Mus condition at the time was not as critical as Old Master Jiangs, it was still a very tricky case in medical history.
She cured Old Madam Mu; maybe she can save Old Master Jiang too.
Dean Li, are you kidding? Old Madam Mus condition was different from Old Master Jiangs, right? If something happens to Old Master Jiang, who will bear the responsibility?
When Li Tong recognized Wen Xin, Sun Miao also recognized her. She could never forget the humiliation Wen Xin brought her and the impact she had on her.
Dr. Sun is right. The situation of this old man is different from Old Madam Mus. Old Madam Musa was caused by a stroke, which was very risky but had a chance of cure. But this old man is different. He has a brainstem vascr malformation, with the risk of the malformation rupturing at any time. One second hes fine, the next second he might
Wen Xin interrupted, raising her clean and fair hand and making an exploding gesture in front of everyone.
The next second it might explode. This kind of illness requires surgery. My acupuncture wont be of any use.
Well, you do have some self-awareness. Its good that youre sensible. That thing of yours, its like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse. Maybe its because our treatment worked, and you ended up benefiting from it. I heard you even used this opportunity to climb onto the Mu familys crown prince. Are you deliberately fishing for opportunities?
Sun Miao couldnt control the bitterness in her heart when she thought of Mu Chengxi, such an outstanding man, being with this quack.
Now that Wen Xin admitted publicly that she couldnt do it, Sun Miao wouldnt miss the chance to step on her.
Wen Xin squinted at Sun Miao, a faint smirk appeared on her lips, but she showed no signs of anger.
The researchers surrounding Wen Xin were also scrutinizing her at this moment. They couldnt believe that such a young girl could possess such formidable medical skills. They believed Sun Miaos words.
They stared dumbfounded at Sun Miao, then turned their heads to look at Wen Xin. They saw Wen Xin walking slowly to Sun Miaos side.
Dr. Sun, whether Im a chatan or not, you can deny that I cured Old Madam Mu, but you cant deny that my acupuncture can make you suffer. Do you believe I can use acupuncture to disable your right hand now? Arent you the famous Golden Right Hand of Beijing? Lets see how youll fare without your right hand!
Sun Miao looked down at the two silver needles on her body. She clearly saw that Wen Xin didnt bring a backpack, so where did her silver needlese from?
When she heard Wen Xin mention her right hand, Sun Miao involuntarily clenched her hand. She was surprised to find that her right hand couldnt exert any force at all. What on earth was going on?
With a disdainful expression in her bright eyes, Wen Xin looked at Sun Miao and raised an eyebrow provocatively.
The researchers around also noticed something wrong with Sun Miao. A middle-aged man came forward to check. Sure enough, Sun Miaos hand had lost its strength. He could not believe this diagnosis.
How could you be so cruel, young girl? Dont you know that doctors should havepassion? How can you ruin a doctors hand, especially Dr. Suns? Dont you know that Dr. Suns hands are for healing?
Seeing the middle-aged man filled with indignation, Wen Xin turned to Zhuge Jingming. Now do you understand why I dont want to go to medical school or the medical research institute? I cant be friends or colleagues with people like them. Im afraid my research results will be the reason they kill me.
You doctors are supposed to save lives, but you cant save your own hearts!
You wield a scalpel to save lives, and I use acupuncture to deceive people? Youre so powerful, why dont you cure that old man? Why let him lie there waiting to die?

With a cold gaze, Wen Xin swept over all the researchers in the institute.
Those researchers, upon hearing Wen Xins words, lowered their heads one after another. They were indeed at a loss regarding Old Man Jiangs condition; it was akin to letting the old man lie there and wait for death.
For an ordinary person, they might still have a chance, but this Old Man Jiang was special. If anything unexpected were to happen, not even the Medical Research Institute, let alone medical organizations in the country, could bear the responsibility.
Cough, cough
At this moment, violent coughing sounded from the ward, causing everyones eyes to widen. They knew what such intense coughing represented
Prepare for surgery. Arrange the four most skilled doctors to enter the operating room with me. Is Su Haoran here?
Wen Xin, seeing that everyone remained motionless, spoke sharply. It seemed that today, there was no way around wading into this muddy water.
Su Haoran, who was standing in the corner, heard Wen Xin calling for him and hurried over.
He had recognized Wen Xin since she entered the institute. However, his rank as a researcher was not enough to participate in treating this patient, so he had been observing from the sidelines.
After giving Su Haoran a nce, Wen Xin looked at the researchers who imed to be saving lives but stood motionless, coldly smiling.
So, this is what you call saving lives. Putting on a sanctimonious act? I hope you start praying from now on. Pray that Im not interested in the Medical Research Institute. Otherwise, once Im in, the first thing Ill do is clear you all out.
Dr. Su, help me find four surgical assistants. Tell them to perform the surgery with me. If anything goes wrong, Ill take responsibility. After the sessful surgery, I can rmend them to the Medical Research Institute in Continent M
Wen Xins domineering wordsnded heavily. Her powerful presence made people not dare to question what she said. Su Haoran hurried off to find assistants to enter the operating room with Wen Xin.
Miss Wen, Im willing to apany you into the operating room as your surgical assistant.
In the silence of the crowd, Li Tong spoke slowly. He had reevaluated the researchers of the institute and found them all very disappointing.
Ill be the second assistant. After receiving a message from Zhuge Jingming, Du Luqing rushed over from Beijing University. The situation had changed suddenly, but fortunately, he arrived in time.
Seeing both directors of the institute volunteering to assist Wen Xin in surgery, other researchers hesitated for a moment and wanted to speak. However, Wen Xin didnt give them a chance to speak.
Director Li, make arrangements. You and Professor Du take Su Haoran and the others to change into surgical attire and prepare for surgery. Ill go check on the old mans condition. Prepare a set of surgical attire for me.
After speaking, Wen Xin patted Zhuge Jingmings arm and, pulling him along, walked into the ward. From her pocket, she took out three silver needles and pierced them into the old mans key acupuncture points.
Little Uncle-Master, this person his identity
No need to tell me who he is. In my eyes, there is only the patients identity. This surgical process is extremely dangerous. I know you asked Du Luqing toe to protect me. Then, I also need you to do me a favor. Before I enter the operating room, help me control his blood flow rate. Buy me some time. His time is really running out.
When Wen Xin entered this mans ward, she knew he wouldntst through the night. If it werent for Sun Miao calling her a fraud and mentioning Mu Chengxi, she wouldnt have cared about this matter at all.
However, at this juncture, she had no way out
Little Uncle-Master, rest assured, I can handle this, Zhuge Jingming assured Wen Xin earnestly. When he arrived, he didnt know the patient was this old man. If he had known, he wouldnt have brought Wen Xin to this perilous ce.
Exiting the ward, Wen Xin found the researchers automatically making way for her. Just then, Li Tongs assistant approached with a ss of milk and a sandwich.
Miss Wen, let me escort you to the operating room. The dean mentioned you might have missed lunch. Its best to have something now to avoid feeling weak during the surgery, the assistant suggested.
Wen Xin epted the sandwich and milk, munching as she walked. By the time she reached the sterilization room, she had finished her meal.
Before stepping into the sterilization room, Wen Xin pulled out her phone, nced at the missed call, and sent a terse message to Mu Chengxi: Somethings up.
Then she casually powered off her phone and tossed it into the wardrobe, her actions appearing cold and unfeeling.
Beside her, the assistant blinked in slight surprise. W Are all the young girls nowadays so cool? This is too cool, isnt it?
Afterpleting the sterilization process, Wen Xin entered the operating room. All the assistants were prepared, standing in their designated spots, awaiting hermand.
Dr. Su, my word stands. Once the surgery concludes, youll forward the names and information of these researchers to my email. Ill rmend them to Continent M for top-tier training, Wen Xin instructed firmly.
With her words spoken, she walked to the chief surgeons position, thanked Zhuge Jingming, andmenced the surgery methodically
After seven hours of meticulous operation, everyone marveled at the stable body data of the elderly man on the screen. Before entering the operating room, they had resigned themselves to potential interrogation. Little did they expect Wen Xin, alone, to turn the tide.
Miss Wen, are you just as adept in Western medicine as you are in Chinese medicine?
Li Tong was the first to voice his astonishment. He had witnessed Wen Xins sess in acupuncture with Old Madam Mu, reviving a severe stroke patient.
Now, observing Wen Xin skillfully wield a surgical de, resurrecting a patient on the brink of death with brainstem tumors, left them awestruck. What divine medical skill!
Du Luqing looked at Wen Xin, feeling he had been naive. With such medical prowess, no one in the country could match her. He even wished to recruit her into the medical school. He truly wondered what the medical school could teach her.
Whether in Chinese or Western medicine, Wen Xin had already attained the pinnacle. Who dared to shamelessly say he could be her master?
Wen Xin loungedzily on a nearby chair, her gaze icy as she watched Su Haoran performing suture. She didnt respond to Li Tongs question but nodded slightly at Su Haoran.
Hes a good doctor. Perhaps not as skilled as the researchers outside, but his integrity is unquestionable!
Director Du, if Dr. Su isnt inclined to go to Continent M, Id appreciate it if you could take him as your direct disciple and groom him well,
Wen Xin remarked nonchntly. Though softly spoken, her words resonated throughout the operating room. To be taken as a direct disciple by Du Luqing was a tremendous honor, not just within the hospital but also in prestigious institutions like the Green Physician Sect..

After the final suture was made, the nurse escorted Old Master Jiang to the recovery room, and only then did Wen Xin slowly rise from her seat.
Noticing Wen Xins unease, Su Haoran removed his surgical gown and approached her without asking for her thoughts. He simply lifted Wen Xin into his arms and carried her out of the operating room.
Outside the operating room, there were many people waiting, most of whom were from the Jiang family.
Director Li, how did my grandfathers surgery go? A woman wearing a beige overcoat rushed to the front, grabbing Li Tongs arm, her excitement palpable.
Li Tong and Du Luqing were the first toe out of the operating room. Seeing them, the Jiang family quickly surrounded them.
Old Master Jiangs surgery was very sessful. He needs to be observed in the ICU for a few days, and he could wake up at any time. Since the old man is in good health, coupled with the excellent skills of our chief surgeon, he is not in any danger
Listening to Li Tongs calm words, the Jiang family didnt believe it at all. If it were as simple as he said, why did the surgery take so long? It must be more difficult than he was letting on.
Dean Li, theres no need to hide anything from us. We know my fathers condition is not optimistic, so you only need to tell the truth. We can ept it, and we wont me the institute.
The eldest son of Old Master Jiang stepped forward, his strong demeanor exuding an invisible pressure as he spoke.
Mr. Jiang, were not exaggerating or hiding the truth. What were saying is the truth. The doctor who performed surgery on Old Master Jiang is very skilled, and the surgery was indeed sessful.
Li Tong patiently exined to the Jiang family. At this moment, Wen Xin had already regained her strength. Together with Su Haoran, she walked out of the operating room, holding her phone and adding Su Haorans contact information.
Miss Wen, you came out just in time. These are Old Master Jiangs family members
As Wen Xin heard Li Tongs introduction, she slowly raised her head and saw the woman in the beige coat. She recognized her at a nce; she was the woman who had beenughing and chatting with Mu Chengxi.
This world is so f*cking small!
Wen Xin nced lightly at the Jiang family, her pale face showing no expression.
Director Li, theres nothing for me to do. Ill leave first. Not wanting to greet those people, Wen Xin prepared to leave with her phone in hand.
Ill walk you Ou Jinzhi stepped out of the crowd, looking at Wen Xins pale face, feeling sorry for her going home alone.
Seeing Ou Jinzhi, Wen Xin was somewhat surprised. She stood still and tilted her head slightly, somewhat puzzled as to why he was there.
At this moment, Ou Jinzhis wife also walked out of the crowd. Miss Wen, we meet again. Thank you for saving my grandfather. Last time, you saved my son, and this time, you saved my grandfather again. We really owe you too much.
Miss Wen, let Jinzhi send you home.
Hearing that Wen Xin had saved Ou Youyou, the Jiang family eagerly looked at Wen Xin. Wen Xin felt extremely ufortable for a while. She waved her hand at Ou Jinzhi and his wife.
No need, I can go back by myself. You should all wait for news about Grandpa.
He should be awake tomorrow morning.
Wen Xin directly refused the kind offer from Ou Jinzhi and his wife. However, Ou Jinzhi looked at Wen Xins floating steps and felt uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone and prepared to make a call. How about I ask Chengxi toe and pick you up?
Hearing Ou Jinzhi mention Mu Chengxi, the woman in the beige coat standing nearby dropped her handbag to the ground, drawing the attention of many people.
Linyan, whats wrong? Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?
Wen Xins gaze fell on Jiang Linyan, and she smiled coldly. No need. Mu Chengxi is probably on his way here to see Miss Jiang. Ill just wait for him downstairs.
Ou Jinzhi seemed to notice something wrong with Wen Xins smile and turned his head to look at Jiang Linyan, his brows furrowing slightly.
Without saying much, Wen Xin turned and left under the gaze of everyone.
Outside the research institute, a ck Maybach was parked by the roadside. A man with an outstanding figure, dressed in a ck windbreaker, leaned against the car, holding a cigarette in his hand. The faint red light of the cigarette seemed somewhat dazzling.
Wen Xin walked up and stood one meter away from the man, her lips curling into a cold smile. Whats this, Mr. Mu waiting here for Miss Jiang?
Upon hearing Wen Xins voice, Mu Chengxi abruptly turned his head. His pitch-ck eyes met Wen Xins chilly gaze, and an uneasy feeling swept over him. Indeed, Wen Xin had seen him talking to Jiang Linyan earlier, so she left in a huff.
I I can exin. Mu Chengxi extinguished the cigarette in his hand and approached Wen Xin cautiously, wanting to hold her hand.
No need. You can wait here for Miss Jiang. Im going back to rest.
Wen Xin dodged Mu Chengxis hand and assumed a defensive posture. If Mu Chengxi dared toe closer, she wouldnt hesitate to strike.
Seeing Mu Chengxis slightly furrowed brows, Wen Xin felt this man in front of her was really boring. She turned around and walked towards the roadside, ignoring Mu Chengxi.
Wen Xin, I can exin. Mu Chengxipletely disregarded the car parked by the roadside and followed behind Wen Xin, trying to grab her hand.
But before he could touch Wen Xins hand, she grabbed his wrist instead. Her fingers pinched his injured wrist, causing him to involuntarily inhale sharply.
Hearing Mu Chengxis sharp intake of breath, Wen Xin leanedzily against the roadside billboard, raising an eyebrow at him. I told you, youd better stay away from me. I dont want to see you right now.
I can exin. I just happened to meet her while waiting for you. She took the initiative to talk to me, so I chatted with her casually.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xins pale face, feeling heartbroken. He wanted to take Wen Xin home and exin everything properly. However, it seemed that if he couldnt exin things clearly today, Wen Xin wouldnt forgive him.
Do you think Ill believe that? Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi with a cold smile, her expression indifferent.
Mu Chengxi, have you not realized your own feelings? Your attitude towards her was different when you talked to her, and youve never been so rxed when talking to your sister. Cant you feel it yourself?
Im tired. I dont want to hear your exnation, and I dont want to discuss this issue with you. This matter has nothing to do with me. Shes here
Wen Xins peripheral vision caught a figure rushing out of the research institute. That person was the source of their problem, Jiang Linyan.
Wen Xin shook off Mu Chengxis wrist, automatically ignoring the sticky feeling between her fingers.
She reached out and hailed a passing taxi, opening the door and getting in. Go to a nearby hotel..

The car had just begun to move when Mu Chengxi swiftly opened the door and hopped into Wen Xins taxi. He moved so quickly that the driver did not have time to react.
Sir, youI
Sorry, my girlfriend and I had a quarrel. Ill follow her request and head to the nearest hotel, Mu Chengxi spoke lightly and gentlemanly. Sitting beside Wen Xin, he paid no heed to her resistance, extending his long arms to pull her into an embrace.
With his arms and legs restraining Wen Xins struggling movements, Mu Chengxi easily subdued her. Although Wen Xins strength was greater than the average persons, it was not enough before Mu Chengxi.
He easily suppressed Wen Xin.
I can exin. I have no feelings for her whatsoever. We both grew up in the Ou family and are quite familiar with each other. We can chat easily, but its merely a childhood friendship, nothing more, Mu Chengxi stated as he rxed his hold on Wen Xin to avoid hurting her.
Ever since he found out Wen Xin had left early, he had been anxious. Now that he could finally hold her, hisplex emotions remained unsettled.
Do you believe what Im saying? I havent lied to you. If I had feelings for her, there wouldnt be rumors in the capital that our family hopes for Wei Shisheng to marry into the Mu family. Mu Chengxi exined earnestly.
The driver, who was driving, perked up at the mention of the Mu family. He had felt that these two were definitely not from ordinary families when they got into the car. However, he did not expect them to be people at the top of the pyramid.
Wen Xin noticed the change in the drivers expression in the rearview mirror. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. Driver, could you please nod and take us back to where we just boarded? His car is there. We wont go to the hotel. Take us home
Of course, of course, the driver hastily made a U-turn at the next intersection, taking Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi back to the research institute.
In the car, Wen Xinzily leaned against Mu Chengxis chest. Mu Chengxi wanted to exin something, but Wen Xin pinched his hand and winked at him.
There was no need for the matter between them to be gossip in other peoples ears. It was not like she really did not want to be with Mu Chengxi.
He seemed to understand her intentions and lowered his head to gently kiss her forehead, no longer speaking.
With no gossip to eavesdrop on, the driver felt a bit disappointed as he nced at the two in the rearview mirror. Unexpectedly, he met Wen Xins cold, pitch-ck eyes. He was so frightened that his entire body trembled involuntarily.
The car returned to the entrance of the research institute, and Mu Chengxi got out of the taxi.
Waiting by the car, Jiang Linyan saw Mu Chengxi getting out of the car. She did not see Wen Xin. She felt ecstatic for a moment, ready to approach Mu Chengxi and talk.
However, her joy was short-lived as she saw Mu Chengxi lifting Wen Xin out of the car. Wen Xin was covered in Mu Chengxis coat, clearly showing how much Mu Chengxi cherished her.
Wen Xins slender arms hooked around Mu Chengxis neck as she nestled her head in the crook of his neck. Her ck, bright eyes nced briefly at Jiang Linyan standing by the car, then quickly looked away.
That woman looks so jealous. I dont believe you when you say you have no rtionship with her, Wen Xin said as she bit Mu Chengxis neck forcefully.
Feeling the pain on his neck, Mu Chengxi chuckled softly. Youngdy, shell just have to watch from the sidelines for the rest of her life. She has no chance.
Supporting Wen Xins bottom with hisrge hand, Mu Chengxi gently patted her and softly reminded her, Hold on tight as I open the car door for you.
Wen Xin tightened her grip around Mu Chengxis neck, hanging onto him as he opened the passenger door and gently ced her in the seat.
Chengxi Jiang Linyans voice was gentle as she called out from behind Mu Chengxi, Ive been waiting here for a long time and couldnt get a taxi. Can I hitch a ride with you?
Sorry, my girlfriend is tired and needs to rest at home now. If youre in a hurry, you can have someone from homee pick you up. If not, youll have to wait a bit longer, Mu Chengxi said coldly as he covered Wen Xins legs with his coat.
Circling around, Mu Chengxi walked to the drivers side, opened the door, and got in. He started the car and drove away without even sparing Jiang Linyan a nce.
In the car, Wen Xinzily rested her cheek on her hand, watching Mu Chengxis profile. A hint of shrewdness flickered in her ck, bright eyes as if she was plotting something.
What do you want to eat? Zhuge Jingming said you only had some sandwiches for lunch before going into the operating room.
Hearing Mu Chengxi mention Zhuge Jingming, she remembered that she hadnt seen him when she left. Apparently, Zhuge Jingming had called Mu Chengxi, and he had left on his own.
Im tired. Just go home and eat something casual Wen Xin responded indifferently to Mu Chengxis words, her gaze falling on the dried bloodstains on Mu Chengxis hand, wondering if she had been too harsh.
Mu Chengxi took out a few pieces of chocte from the side and ced them in Wen Xins hand. Have a couple of choctes first. Ill cook for you when we get home.
Wen Xin looked at the choctes in her palm and chuckled softly. Is our quarrel over now?
Isnt it over? Ive already exined to you. I really have nothing to do with her. She left the country when she was fifteen or sixteen. Our interaction has been very limited, almost nonexistent. Our encounter at Beijing University this time was purely coincidental, Mu Chengxi said as he drove the car into the underground parking lot of the residential area and parked in his parking space.
He unfastened his and Wen Xins seatbelts, pulled Wen Xin into his arms, and looked at her with firm and serious eyes.
Little ancestor, Ive given you everything in my lifemy first feelings, my first act of kindness towards a woman, my first time coaxing a woman, my first Stop! Wen Xin had already guessed what Mu Chengxi wanted to say. She pressed her finger against Mu Chengxis thin lips. Only he could say such embarrassing words without changing his expression.
Thats enough. I believe you. I cant outdo you in shamelessness. Youre really something, Wen Xin admitted defeat in the shamelessness department. She felt that Mu Chengxi could say anything shameless.
So, are we still arguing? Mu Chengxi raised an eyebrow, looking at Wen Xin, whose ears were already turning red. He wished he could just eat this little girl up.
No more arguing. Im too tired. Carry me back for a shower and rest!
After the anger in her heart dissipated, Wen Xin seemed to lose all her strength. She slumped in Mu Chengxis arms, unwilling to move..

Back home, Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin hanging onto him and felt it was unlikely for him to cook for her. She seemed to need him for something else.
He took out his phone and dialed a number, instructing the person on the other end to deliver some food.
After hanging up, Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin straight into the bathroom. Leaning close to her ear, he gently asked, Shall I bathe you?
Mmm. Wen Xin sat on the toiletzily, extending her arm towards Mu Chengxi. She wasnt worried anymore that he might have any improper intentions towards her. She really didnt have the strength to bathe herself.
After the shower, with flushed cheeks, Wen Xiny panting on the bed. She regretted it. If she had known Mu Chengxi would do such things in the bathroom, she wouldnt have needed his help, even if shecked the strength. It was just too much.
Mu Chengxi pulled up the nket from behind Wen Xin, covering her. He leaned down to give her back a gentle kiss before standing up and walking into the wardrobe to put on some casual clothes before leaving the bedroom.
Meanwhile, Mu Chengxis phone was blinking frantically on the coffee table. He picked it up and answered the call.
Master Xi, the food has arrived. Can you open the door so I can bring it up to you?
Two minutester, the doorbell rang in the apartment. Mu Chengxi opened the door, epted the food delivered by the driver, and then told the driver to go back and rest.
Mu Chengxi looked at the dinner bought from Tianxiang Pavilion by the driver and was quite satisfied. He prepared a bit of each dish for Wen Xin on a tray and then carried it into the room, ready to feed Wen Xin.
By this time, Wen Xin had changed into her pajamas and was lying on the bed, holding her phone and seemingly engrossed in something.
Put down whatever youre holding ande eat first.
Supporting herself with her arms, Wen Xin looked up at Mu Chengxi, who was carrying the food, and raised an eyebrow slightly. Why so thoughtful? Trying to make amends?
Not really making amends. I can only say that my little ancestor has worked hard. Ill serve her.
Hearing Mu Chengxi deliberately mention hard work, the blush on Wen Xins face returned. She red at Mu Chengxi without a word.
Eating in the bedroom might leave a smell. Lets eat in the dining room.
Wen Xin rolled off the bed. She had already taken the special pills that she had made, and her strength had recovered quite a bit. She looked quite energetic.
Okay, lets go out to eat. Mu Chengxi saw that Wen Xin was in good spirits and didnt refuse. He carried the tray of food out of the room, and they ate together in the dining room.
After they were full, Wen Xin went into the kitchen and cleaned the dishes they had used.
Turning around, she saw Mu Chengxizily leaning against the door frame, watching her with gentle and affectionate eyes.
Go sit on the sofa. Wen Xin came out of the kitchen, her gaze falling on the wound on Mu Chengxis wrist. Her tone was cold as she spoke.
Unsure of what Wen Xin intended to do, Mu Chengxi simply watched as she went into her room to put away things. After about a minute, he calmly stretched his legs and walked over to sit on the sofa in the living room.
Not long after, he heard the sound of the bedroom door opening. Wen Xin emerged, holding a bottle of medicine and some gauze.
Mu Chengxi withdrew his gaze from Wen Xin and nced at the wound on his wrist. It seemed that since he came back, Wen Xin had only applied medicine to his wound once and hadnt checked it since.
Sitting on the sofa, Wen Xin gently patted Mu Chengxis leg. Give me your hand
Mu Chengxi obediently extended his hand to Wen Xin. He deliberately lowered his voice and spoke in a soothing tone, My wound was already healed after I applied medicine, but you reopened it today.
Wen Xin knew very well that she was the one who had reopened his wound; she didnt need him to remind her. She raised her eyes, ring coldly at Mu Chengxi.
If theres a next time, it wont be as simple as just reopening the wound. Ill just break your hand.
Wen Xins voice was cold as she spoke, and she didnt seem to be in a good mood. Mu Chengxi dared not speak and could only watch her quietly.
After Wen Xin finished applying medicine and bandaging Mu Chengxis wrist, shezilv leaned back on the sofa.
Looking up at Mu Chengxi, her dark bright eyes held a faint watery sheen. She didnt have the sharpness she had before; instead, she seemed to evoke a sense of pity.
Mu Chengxi couldnt bear to see Wen Xin like this. He reached out and pulled her into his arms. Whats wrong with you?
Am I being too unreasonable? But every time I see youughing and talking with her, I feel so ufortable. I dont know how to describe my feelings. I just dont like seeing you let your guard down with her. It makes me unhappy, irritated
Wen Xin rested her head on Mu Chengxis chest, unable to describe her feelings.
Perhaps she was ustomed to seeing Mu Chengxi maintain a cold and distant demeanor towards everyone. This was the first time she saw him treat someone differently, and she couldnt control her emotions. She felt that this man belonged to her and only her. She didnt want to see him being so kind to other women.
Hearing Wen Xin admit to being jealous, Mu Chengxi felt relieved. He gently rubbed Wen Xins back, soothing her restless emotions.
Your possessiveness, I really like it. Dont worry, this wont happen again in the future. Ill keep my distance from her.
Mu Chengxi didnt see Wen Xins little tantrum as unreasonable. Instead, he thoroughly enjoyed her possessiveness. Wasnt this the feeling of being cared for that he wanted?
Listening to Mu Chengxis reassurance and understanding, Wen Xin tightened her arms around his neck even more. It seemed that only by holding him tightly like this could she dispel the uneasiness in her heart.
The next morning, before Wen Xin could fully wake up, her phone started vibrating frantically. She lifted her arm, somewhat drowsily, and picked up her phone, giving it a faint nce. Unexpectedly, it was a call from Zhao Honghan.
She tried to clear her mind a little and answered the call, Uncle Zhao, whats the matter?
Wen Xin, are you still half-asleep? Uncle Zhao knows its too early to call you, but have you heard about the Zhao familys situation?
The Zhao family? Hearing Zhao Honghans anxious tone, Wen Xin didnt need to think to know why he called. She was much more awake now.
I heard Does Uncle Zhao also want to intervene in this matter?
Wen Xin pulled away from Mu Chengxis embrace around her waist, struggling to extricate herself from his embrace. She got out of bed and sat on the nearby sofa.
Wen Xin, yesterday my mother called back everyone from the Zhao family. She said the current situation of the Zhao family is very bad. My second brother said over the phone that this matter was manipted by Mu Chengxi.. He asked me to ask you, what can be done to spare the Zhao family?

Although Zhao Honghan spoke urgently, he also hesitated a bit. He knew that the current situation of the Zhao family must have been influenced by Wen Xin.
Now, if Wen Xin wanted to ruin the Zhao family, there must be a reason for it. Although Zhao Honghan didnt know what Wen Xin intended to do, he understood Wen Xin. She wouldnt act so outrageously without a reason.
Wen Xin, my mother said that we can discuss anything. You can ask for anything you want. Can you please give the Zhao family a way out?
Zhao Honghan waited anxiously for Wen Xins reply. He was also worried that if the Old Madam waited too long for news, it would not be good for her health.
Uncle Zhao, when I treated Old Madam Zhaos illness before, it was entirely because of Uncle Zhaos face. If Uncle Zhao hadnt risked his life to protect Uncle Tan, I wouldnt have had the chance to meet the Zhao family.
But my debt of gratitude has been repaid. One life for one life. If it werent for me, the Old Madam Zhao wouldnt have lived to this day. You cant deny this, right?
Ive been merciful to the Zhao family. If I had acted as I normally did, the Zhao family would probably have been sealed off by now. You should be well aware of my methods, Uncle Zhao, right?
Zhao Honghan trembled slightly at Wen Xins words. It seemed that Wen Xin was genuinely angry this time.
Please give the Zhao family another chance, for my sake? No matter what, Uncle Zhao has done so much for you. Can you spare the Zhao family this time?
Zhao Honghan originally couldnt bring himself to beg Wen Xin like this, but he only wanted to ensure that the elderlydy could spend her remaining years in peace, considering how much she had done for his family.
Dad, please dont pressure Little Aunt anymore. Hasnt Little Aunt helped our family enough? Although youve done a lot for her, your direct promotion to the capital was also due to Little Aunts contributions. Otherwise, how could you have been promoted to the capital so easily?
Zhao Yuyao came down from upstairs just in time to hear Zhao Honghan morally ckmailing Wen Xin. He wanted to hit Zhao Yuzheng when he heard that he had insulted Wen Xin. He didnt think Wen Xin did anything wrong.
Dad, think about it from another perspective. If someone humiliated your daughter like that, wouldnt you fight back? Little Aunt had already lost her liver because of the Geng family. Now she has to bear such usations. Dont you think its too much? Zhao Yuzheng is just sick in the head. Its okay for him to suffer a hit!
Thinking about it now made Zhao Yuyao angry. Zhao Yuzhengs words directly put Wen Xin on the pir of shame. This also showed that his Little Aunt had real skills and talents. If it were someone else, their entire life would have been ruined by Zhao Yuzhengs words. Did he deserve that?
Zhao Honghan felt ashamed by Zhao Yuyaos words. Especially when he thought about what Zhao Hongyuan said, that Wen Xin had already withdrawn from the independent enrollment of the University of Beijing. Zhao Honghan realized that he shouldnt have made this call. It was Zhao Yuyaos words that sobered him up.
Wen Xin, Im sorry. I shouldnt have said such things to you. Ill go back and talk to my mother. I cant interfere in this matter.
Wen Xin clearly heard Zhao Yuyaos words. She listened to Zhao Yuyao defending her at every turn, and she felt that the Zhao family might still have a chance.
Uncle Zhao, I will call the Old Madam Zhao about this matter. I will handle this matter properly.
Wen Xin hung up the phone directly. She looked up and saw Mu Chengxi lyingzily on the bed, holding his head in his hand, gazing at her intently.
What? Have you made up your mind again? Are you going to intervene in the Zhao familys affairs? Arent you afraid that the Old Madam Zhao will resent you? Mu Chengxi climbed out of bed, walked to Wen Xins side, and wrapped her in his arms.
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxiszy appearance, which was particrly charming. She narrowed her eyes andy in Mu Chengxis arms. In the face of major right and wrong issues, Zhao Yuyao is more sensible than Zhao Yuzheng. Its probably because of his mothers influence. I think its better to entrust the future of the Zhao family to Zhao Yuyao than Zhao Yuzheng.
You liking it is what matters. I support you in all your decisions. As long as you talk to Madam Zhao, I can refrain from further actions against the Zhao family. However, I dont intend to stop my business abroad. This is just a small interest Im iming back from Zhao Yuzheng for mistreating my girlfriend. Its my girlfriends birthday soon, and I want to earn money to buy her a birthday gift.
Mu Chengxi rubbed his head against Wen Xins neck affectionately. He was looking forward to Wen Xins birthday.
After taking full advantage of her on the sofa, Mu Chengxi reluctantly let go of Wen Xin and walked into the bathroom to freshen up.
Wen Xiny on the sofa, watching Mu Chengxis departing figure. She felt that this man was bing more and more uncontroble, just likest night in the bathroom
Thinking of what Mu Chengxi didst night, Wen Xin felt a bit overwhelmed. She dared not think, if this man were to let loose, wouldnt it be dangerous?
Thinking of this, Wen Xin nced at the time on her phone. That day was getting closer Suddenly, she felt an urge to give in.
After breakfast, she checked her exam results online, nced at them, then put her phone aside and continued to read the revision materials in her hand. She had her second-round examination tomorrow.
Mu Chengxi sat next to Wen Xin, watching her absent-minded actions. He was curious about Wen Xins performance. Since starting high school, Wen Xin had only taken one midterm exam, and her results had helped Zhao Yuyao and the others. He was curious about Wen Xins true abilities.
He reached out and took Wen Xins phone, opened it, nced at the exam results, then slowly put the phone back on the coffee table and pulled Wen Xin into his arms.
Little ancestor, how do you manage to stay so calm after seeing your first exam results?
Wen Xin put down the book in her hand and met Mu Chengxis eyes, which were dark with a subtle smile. She raised her eyebrows. Just because I havent studied at school doesnt mean I dont know anything, right? These trivial matters cant stump me at all. Its too shy to do too well on exams. Theres no need for it.
Wen Xins indifferent tone was unbelievable. Perhaps it was her casual and carefree attitude that made him feel she was extraordinary?
Wen Xin nced at the time and felt it was almost time to talk to Madam Zhao about the Zhao familys affairs.
Im going to make a phone call. Wen Xin struggled to get up from Mu Chengxis embrace and walked to the study upstairs with her phone.
Mu Chengxi picked up his tablet, opened Weibo, and clicked on the trending page. Indeed, the results of Beijing Universitys independent enrollment were out, causing quite a stir.
Divine intervention, huh? After following Beijing University for so many years, its the first time someone has achieved such a miraculous result in independent enrollment, right?
Agreed! Its probably 300 points that limits this gods operation, right?
Chapter 421 - 421: Using Strength to Blow Everyone Up
Chapter 421 - 421: Using Strength to Blow Everyone Up
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Have you seen the exam paper released by Beijing University? As a student of Beijing Universitys physics department, seeing those answers, one cant help but admire them. Its unimaginable that a high school student could solve such calctions, and the approach is too unconventional, isnt it?
Being in the physics department at Beijing University, Im very curious about this extraordinary student. Is this student a junior or a sophomore? Once admitted, this student will surely be sought after by all the professors, right? Im no longer the darling in the eyes of the professors
Hey hey hey, that senior upstairs, that name is obviously a girls name! Do you remember or not, a while back during the Ice City pianopetition, there was a girl with stunning looks who shared the same name as this years top scorer in the independent enrollment exam. Could they be the same person?
And also, let me add, I dont know if the inte has any memory of it. There was an incident of a fake professor at Beijing University before. It seems that a professor from the medical school of Beijing University also wanted to specially admit Wen Xin but was rejected by her. Beijing University even issued a statement
I remember, I remember At first, we thought that Wen Xin was worried that her qualifications werent enough, so she refused Beijing Universitys invitation. I didnt expect her to not fancy the medical school at Beijing
University and instead applied to the physics department
My goodness, I just watched the video of this youngdys pianopetition. Shes so beautiful, isnt she? I dere that from today onwards, Im a fan of this youngdy
Dont any of you suspect the authenticity of her grades? When her information was exposed, it clearly stated that she dropped out of junior high school. Do you really believe that someone who dropped out of junior high school could get into Beijing Universitys physics department? Or be the top scorer in the independent enrollment exam
Hahaha, I was skeptical at first, too, but there are too many praises now. Im cowering in the corner, afraid of being criticized mercilessly
Thats right The girl ys the piano so well, and she even published a pianoposition, recognized by the World Piano Organization as a geniusposer. But theres no need to fake academic achievements, right? Being praised so highly now, its easy to fall from grace and end up in a sorry state in the end!
The professors of Beijing Universitys physics department also looked at the onlinements. They also suspected that there was a leak of the exam papers. However, under the assurance of the invigting professor, Professor Shen, andparing the answers, they could confirm that Wen Xins sincerity was genuine.
However, there was no way to prove Wen Xins academic performance authenticity online.
Just when the professors of Beijing Universitys physics department were troubled, Du Luqing walked in from outside, looking at the professors in the room with a smirk on his face.
Having a hard time now,peting with us from the medical school, right? Du Luqing pulled over an empty chair, sat down, and smiled triumphantly.
Alright, I wont keep you in suspense. When I was reading Wen Xins SCI medical thesis, I found a paper she published two years ago about electromaic theory. You can take a look. It should prove Wen Xins academic foundation. Although the topic is too profound for some to understand, it depends on how you apply it. Thats all I can help you with!
After Du Luging finished speaking, he handed the number of Wen Xins SCI thesis to Vice Professor Shen and then left the office.
After Du Luqing left, all the professors in the office turned on theirputers. In the SCI paper library, they searched for Wen Xins SCI paper by its number.
After they finished reading, they collectively fell into silence, beginning to doubt their lives.
Are you sure we can teach someone of this calibering to our physics department?
This paper attracted the attention of physics experts worldwide two years ago, and theyve been looking for contributors, but they havent found any. If Wen Xins identity is revealed now, such talent might be snatched away, right?
Shouldnt we keep this matter hidden and find a way to control onlinements again?
They felt that using the paper to prove Wen Xins academic performance authenticity was simply not feasible, and the pressure returned to them once again.
Just as they were in a dilemma, the official Weibo of Beijing University released an announcement online.
The announcement dered that Beijing University strictly controls independent enrollment to ensure the authenticity and fairness of the exams. If anyone defames the school or the candidates again, the school will hold them ountable criminally and civilly.
With the announcement from Beijing Universitys official Weibo, there were noticeably fewer skeptical statements online. The current trending topics on Weibo had shifted to the geniusposer Kenyatta, followed by a red exmation mark.
When Wen Xin finished her call and came downstairs, she heard the familiar piano piece ying in the living room, feeling somewhat surprised. How did Mu Chengxi dig out this piece again?
Wen Xin sat down next to Mu Chengxi and nced at the tablet he was holding, somewhat surprised. Why is it trending again?
Well, your grades are too outstanding. After Beijing University released them, you trended again. But Beijing Universitys official Weibo has already issued a statement, so the situation has calmed down.
Wen Xin lightly slid her finger across the tablets screen, casually scanning the onlinements, then returned the tablet to Mu Chengxi and stood up to go upstairs.
Not understanding what Wen Xin was going to do, Mu Chengxi didnt chase after her but continued to scroll through Weibo, looking at the online discussions about Wen Xin.
Suddenly, for some unknown reason, Weibo crashed
Mu Chengxi raised his head and nced in the direction of the study, seeming to understand something. His little ancestor wasnt happy
After taking Wen Xins call, Old Madam Zhao came downstairs after a long time. Zhao Hongyuan and Jianya sat in the living room with worried expressions. The Zhao Corporation was in chaos now, and Zhao Yuzhengs arm Situation was not optimistic.
Mom, hows the situation? Is the Mu family willing to intercede for us? As long as Marshall Mu shows mercy, we can apologize to Wen Xin in person
Deep down, Zhao Hongyuan still looked down on Wen Xin. He felt that without Mu Chengxis support, Wen Xin wouldnt have much chance to be arrogant.
You want to apologize to Wen Xin? Have you considered whether shes willing to see you? Zhao Hongyuan, your son is confused, are you confused too? What qualifications do we have to ask for help from the Mu family? Dont you know that Mu Chengxi has never been under the control of the Mu family? Moreover, now Mu Chengxi is the head of the Mu family. Do you think anyone can control him?
Old Madam Zhaos words shocked Zhao Hongyuan. When did Mu Chengxi be the head of the Mu family? Wasnt the head of the Mu family Old Madam Mu? How could it be like this
Mom, do we have no hope? Zhao Hongyuan dared not think. It would be so easy for Mu Chengxi, as the head of the Mu family, to crush the Zhao family
Hope is not entirely lost. Send Yuzheng abroad, dont let him cause trouble in the country anymore. Wen Xin is not as simple as you imagine.

Chapter 422 - 422: The Mysterious True Identity
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Old Madam Zhao felt somewhat weary. Zhao Yuzheng had been raised ording to the requirements of the heir since he was young, but in the end, he turned out to be such a brainless person, which greatly disappointed her.
Mom, what do you mean?
When Jianya heard that Old Madam Zhao wanted to send Zhao Yuzheng abroad, she couldnt agree to it. He had a promising future in the capital, surrounded by the offspring of prestigious families. Any one of them could be Zhao Yuzhengs stepping stone to sess. She
Just then, Zhao Hongyuans phone rang. It was a call from Beijing. Zhao Hongyuan gestured for Jianya to keep quiet, and she obediently closed her mouth.
Mr. Zhao, hello. We are from the Physics Department of Beijing University.
Due to Zhao Yuzhengs derogatory remarks and nder against his ssmates, Beijing University has taken serious action and decided to expel Zhao Yuzheng. We hope that Zhao Yuzheng wille to the school toplete the withdrawal procedures within a week. Thank you for your cooperation.
Zhao Hongyuan stared at his phone, finding it hard to believe what he had just heard. How could Beijing University expel Zhao Yuzheng? Could this also be Wen Xins doing?
Mom Zhao Hongyuan looked at Old Madam Zhao in a daze. All Zhao Yuzheng did was say a few words to her, and now, he had lost his student status. Why was she being so ruthless?
Calling me wont help. All I can do is to save the Zhao family. Ive reminded you many times not to provoke Wen Xin, but you never listen. Her background is not Mu Chengxis; its someone you could never imagine! Now, the only way left is for him to go abroad.
Old Madam Zhao never expected the Zhao family to end up like this. When the Zhao family was flourishing, she once dreamed that the era of the Zhao family wasing
But it was just a fantasy after all Everything had shattered.
With the help of the butler, Old Madam Zhao stood up. She couldnt plead for Zhao Yuzheng anymore. Wen Xin had made it clear on the phone that the Zhao family had exhausted all her gratitude. Everything else had nothing to do with her.
Mom Even if you cant plead for Yuzheng, please help him find a divine doctor. Wen Xin broke Yuzhengs arm herself. The doctor said that even if the surgery is sessful, the results wont be ideal.
Jianya ran up to Old Madam Zhao and knelt in front of her. Mom, please, we all know you have contacts with divine doctors. Save Yuzheng. His arm is needed for experiments; it cant be crippled!
Old Madam Zhao lowered her head. Her misty eyes had lost their former brilliance. Zhao Yuzheng was the child she had raised with her own hands. How could she not feel heartache? However
However, that divine doctor was Wen Xin. She had crippled Zhao Yuzhengs hand herself. How could she possibly help heal it?
The divine doctors whereabouts are uncertain. Thest time I asked her to treat Old Madam Mu, she didnt agree. It was the Seventh Young Master who took Wen Xin back and healed Old Madam Mu. Go abroad. Continent M has the best medical organizations. See if theres any solution there.
Old Madam Zhao rubbed her temples wearily. Her body seemed to be far from what it used to be a few days ago. It seemed that her life was really going to end in the hands of her family.
News of Wen Xin bing the top scorer in the independent enrollment exam quickly reached the Mu family. Old Madam Mu was entertaining guests in the living room when she heard about it and couldnt sit still.
Auntie Fu, quickly go to the market and buy the freshest shrimp and crab to prepare for dinner tonight. Chengxu, call Chengxi and ask him to bring Little Xinxin home for dinner tonight.
After hearing Mu Chengxu call Wen Xin Little Xinxin, Old Madam Mu felt that this nickname was very endearing and began to call Wen Xin Little Xinxin as well.
Linyan came at the right time today. Grandma will introduce Mu Chengxis girlfriend to you. That girl is beautiful, the most beautiful girl Grandma has ever seen.
Although she has a somewhat cold personality, she is lovable. Grandma likes her very much! Also, she has exceptional medical skills. Grandmas life was saved by her.
That girl is truly someone Grandma likes very much. Its been a few years since you and Mu Chengxist met, right? Stay for dinner tonight and catch up with Mu Chengxi
Old Madam Mu couldnt help but praise Wen Xin endlessly when talking about her, and she did not notice Jiang Linyan displeased expression.
Grandma, my grandfather just woke up this morning. I have to go to the hospital to see him tonight, so I wont stay for dinner with you. When I have the chance, Ille over to apany you.
Jiang Lin Yan felt extremely ufortable in her heart. She had been foolish before, wanting to pursue something outside, but after wandering around, she realized that the person who had been by her side was the best.
When she saw Mu Chengxu at Beijing Universitys campus, she thought it was fate that they met as soon as she returned to the country.
Later, she heard Mu Chengxu exin that Mu Chengxi already had a girlfriend, and she was someone he cherished deeply, someone who made Mu Chengxi put aside his pride and apany her to take the exam.
Grandma, I just returned to Beijing and came to see you. Its gettingte now, so I have to go back to the hospital to see my grandfather. Ille over to apany you when I have time.
Jiang Lin Yan couldnt stand the atmosphere anymore. She felt that under the shrewd gaze of Old Madam Mu, all her disguises would crumble, so she could only leave in a hurry.
Watching Jiang Lin Yan hastily leaving with her handbag, Old Madam Mu narrowed her shrewd eyes slightly and nced at the butler behind her.
This little girl has grown up and has her heart set on something. Its a pity that she understood it toote. Such is life Butler, have you not yet investigated the rtionship between Wen Xin and Alfredo?
The incident at the Ous banquet that day was still fresh in everyones memory, especially the interaction between Wen Xin and Alfredo. Only Wen Xin dared toy hands on Alfredo.
Everyone present could see the infinite indulgence and tolerance in Alfredos eyes towards Wen Xin. Even when sheid hands on him, he didnt consider retaliating.
It was impossible for Wen Xin not to know Alfredo. Old Madam Mu could judge that Wen Xins identity was definitely not simple.
Otherwise, Alfredo, as the Chairman of the Independent State, wouldnt tolerate a girl being so disrespectful to him. It was said that when he left, there was a bloody wound on his neck.
Since that day, everyone thought Alfredo would retaliate against Wen Xin, but he didnt.
The news they received was that Alfredo left Beijing very discreetly and didnt take Wei Shisheng with him.
A few dayster, the Ling family even received an apology from the Payten family of the Independent State.
This was unheard of in Beijing. Everyone couldnt help but associate this incident with Wen Xin. After all, she had to have some agreement with Alfredo to dare to do what she did..

Old Madam, weve sent people to investigate this matter, but they were all stopped by Seventh Young Master. He demanded, as the head of the family, that no power in the Mu family is allowed to investigate Wen Xins identity, so theres no follow-up to this matter.
After hearing the butlers words, Old Madam Mu leaned back in her chair and sighed softly. Forget it, the children are grown up, and we cant interfere in their affairs anymore. Since Mu Chengxi has intervened to protect Wen Xin, he should already know about Wen Xins rtionship with Alfredo. Let them handle it themselves!
Old Madam Mus thoughts were very open-minded. When children grow up, if they have the ability, they should venture out on their own. When they get hurt outside, the Mu family will be their strongest backing
While Wen Xin was ying a game, a call from Zhuge Jingming came in, causing her in-game character to be killed by a headshot.
Sitting behind Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi happened to see this scene and couldnt help but chuckle softly. The God of War was defeated by a phone call.
Wen Xin tilted her head back and gave Mu Chengxi a cold look before exiting the game interface and finding Zhuge Jingmings number in her missed calls to call back.
The call was quickly answered by Zhuge Jingming. Without waiting for him to speak, Wen Xin spoke in a cold tone.
Whats wrong? Why are you calling?
Little Uncle-Master, the old gentleman from the Jiang family has woken up. He wants to meet his savior. He has already been transferred to the affiliated hospital of the Research Institute. Are you interested in meeting Mr. Jiang?
Im not interested. I dont have the time! Wen Xins voice was cold. When they mentioned the Jiang family, Wen Xins first reaction was to think of that woman, feeling somewhat annoyed.
Sensing Wen Xins displeasure, Zhuge Jingming hesitated for a moment, thinking that he might have offended Wen Xin.
Little Uncle-Master, are you angry because I didnt wait for you that day? I had other matters to attend to that day, so I left early. But I did ask Mu Chengxi toe over for you. Even if I made a mistake, can I make up for it?
Zhuge Jingming cautiously asked Wen Xin, as he couldnt afford to provoke her. He was worried that Wen Xin would disregard their Green Physician Sect in a fit of anger.
Its not because of you. Keep your mind on your own business. I have my own matters to attend to. I have to go back to the Mu family for dinner tonight, and I have to go to Beijing University for the second interview tomorrow. Im busy.
Wen Xin didnt want to admit that she was upset because of that woman from the Jiang family. Such petty matters could easily tarnish her image.
Mu Chengxi hugged Wen Xin from behind. He knew why Wen Xin was upset. Holding her waist, he let Wen Xin lean against his chest and lightly kissed her neck.
Wen Xin pushed away Mu Chengxis yful hand, stood up from the sofa, and continued speaking to Zhuge Jingming on the phone. How is Sun Miaos situation? Have you heard if her arm has regained sensation?
Wen Xin intentionally made Sun Miao suffer a bit because of her loose tongue.
When it came to Sun Miao, Zhuge Jingming felt a bit embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking, Little Uncle-Master, Doctor Sun is a talented person trained by the Medical Research Institute. Can you let her off the hook She came to my clinic early this morning, and I really cant solve such a tricky problem.
Tell her to go to the Medical School of Beijing University tomorrow afternoon.
Ill heal her arm for her, but the premise is that she has to apologize to me. Otherwise, dont me me for being ruthless.
Wen Xin made herself a cup of honey pomelo water. After drinking half of it, she walked up to Mu Chengxi and handed him the cup.
Mu Chengxi didnt like sweet food, but he never refused when Wen Xin offered. He took the cup handed to him by Wen Xin and drank the rest.
Little Uncle-Master-Master, Ill talk to Sun Miao about this matter. Do you want to go and take a look at the Medical College tomorrow? See if theres anyone youre interested in and take on a disciple?
Zhuge Jingming thought that if Wen Xin had a disciple, he would definitely be a legend. This way, Wen Xin would not have to worry about having no one inherit her medical skills.
The students in the medical school are all bookworms, not suitable. When I have my own child in the future, then Ill train them!
Wen Xins eyes narrowed slightly. She secretly diagnosed herself yesterday and found that her body had improved. Maybe she could really have a child with Mu Chengxi in the future.
Mu Chengxi, who was sitting aside dealing with emails, heard Wen Xins words, and his fingers involuntarily paused for a moment. This little girl was really good at teasing people
After chatting casually with Zhuge Jingming for a few moments, Wen Xin remembered the email she had received earlier. She reminded Zhuge Jingming with a casual tone.
You should be in contact with Li Tong, right? Pass on a message to Li Tong for me. The Medical Organization of Continent M has replied, saying they can arrange for those people to go to the medical organization. Ask them to sign the documents as soon as possible.
Listening to Wen Xins casual tone, Zhuge Jingming felt like crawling over along thework cable to see Wen Xins current expression. What kind of situation could make Wen Xin speak so calmly?
Little Uncle-Master, do you have a good rtionship with the Medical
Organization of Continent M?
Its alright. Do you have something to do?
IN-no Nothing, I just think that if our Medical Research Institute can have a cooperative rtionship with the Medical Organization of Continent M, it will greatly improve our domestic medical standards.
Zhuge Jingming was very surprised to hear that Wen Xin actually knew about the Medical Organization of Continent M. Although he was not in the Medical Research Institute, he also hoped that the medical standards in the country could be improved.
This matter is not urgent. Lets talk about itter The people in the Medical Research Institute need to be properly reorganized. After dealing with that, we can contact the Medical Organization of Continent M.
Wen Xin had also thought about bridging a connection between the domestic Medical Research Institute and the Medical Organization of Continent M, but after going to the Medical Research Institute, she found that she no longer had that idea. Its better to wait untilter.
After discussing the situation of the Institute with Zhuge Jingming, Wen Xin hung up the phone.
As soon as the call ended, Mu Chengxi, like an octopus, hugged Wen Xin from behind. He leaned close to her ear and asked in a hoarse voice, Little girl, do you want to give birth to a daughter for me or a son? I prefer a little girl like you!
Wen Xin leaned against Mu Chengxis chest and smiled coldly. Are you thinking about this a bit too early? You havent even tasted meat, and you already want a daughter. Youre just too impatient! Lets talk about having a daughterter.
Wen Xin pushed away Mu Chengxis arms and turned around to hug his neck, blowing gently into his ear.
I prefer a son like you. Giving birth to a cute little one who looks just like you would be quite nice. Wen Xin winked at Mu Chengxi, smiling wickedly..

Mu Chengxi couldnt resist Wen Xins teasing. He held her tightly in his arms, took a deep breath, and hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly.
My sister asked us toe back for dinner. Do you want to freshen up before we go?
No need, just changing clothes will do. Are we staying at the old mansion tonight?
Its up to you. If you dont want to, we cane back. Itll be more convenient to send you to the exam tomorrow. Mu Chengxi lightly pinched the muscles around Wen Xins waist. A girls body should be soft, but Wen Xin seemed to have solid muscles all over her body.
Lets see how it goes. Ill change clothes, and then we can set off.
It was already winter, and the nights were getting darker earlier. If they went to the old house now, it would probably be dark by the time they arrived. So, it was better to leave a bit earlier.
Mu Chengxi let go of Wen Xin and watched her go upstairs to change. Then, he picked up his phone and squinted at the messages on it.
When he heard the sound of the door closing upstairs, Mu Chengxi dialed Gu
Yanzhes number and asked, Is the information you just sent true?
Its true. The Jason family went to the Shadow Alliance and wanted to cooperate, but Aiden hasnt been in good health recently. He wants to call Geng Zewei back, but it seems that Geng Zeweis recovery isnt going well. He wanted to buy some experimental drugs from the Medical Organization of Continent
M, but theyve been rejected.
When Gu Yanzhe mentioned the Medical Organization of Continent M, Mu Chengxis beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. He felt that Wen Xin seemed to have a very close rtionship with the Medical Organization of Continent M. He wondered what the connection between Wen Xin and the Medical Organization of Continent M was.
Whats the situation with the Jason Family now? Did their elders get injured in the explosion? Mu Chengxi hadnt been able to reach out to the Independent State yet. Although he had thought of many channels, he hadnt had the chance to get in touch with the core of the Independent State.
Master Xi, we dont know much about the situation in the Independent State, but what we can confirm is that the person in contact with the Shadow Alliance is not the one from the Elder Council, but his son.
Gu Yanzhe had already reached his limit to obtain such information. He simply didnt have the opportunity to delve deeper into the internal affairs of the
Independent State.
How are Liang Luoyu and Mu Dongs injuries?
Their injuries are recovering quickly. Chu Yunxuan had someone send experimental drugs from the Medical Organization of Continent M, and the recovery effect is quite good. They should be able to return to Continent F in about a week.
Recently, there were signs of cooperation between the Shadow Alliance and the Independent State, which was not a good thing for the forces in Continent F.
Therefore, they needed to be extra cautious.
Alright, I know the situation. Mu Bei will handle things in Beijing for you. Just focus on handling things in Continent F. In a few days, Ill personally go to Continent F.
Mu Chengxi nned to go to Continent F after Wen Xins birthday. He could only let Gu Yanzhe and the others hold on for a while longer.
After hanging up the phone, when Mu Chengxi returned to the living room, Wen Xin was already sitting there, looking at him calmly with a faint smile on her lips.
Are you investigating the Independent State?
Seeing that Wen Xin seemed to already know something, Mu Chengxi didnt hide it either. He sat down next to Wen Xin and held her hand in his palm. I know you dont want to act against the Independent State for now. Actually, I just wanted to cause a bit of trouble for them. It seems that my actions have touched on the interests of some people, making them unhappy
Mu Chengxi looked into Wen Xins eyes, his dark eyes staring at her. He didnt want Wen Xin to be troubled by this matter.
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly. When you found Chu Yunxuan, she told me everything about how you wanted to cooperate with her. She didnt lie to you. She really didnt know about the Independent State.
Twenty years ago, there was an incident of stealing scientific research results in the Independent State. After that, the Independent State became very closed off, with a very strong defense system. No hacker could attack the Independent States programs, and even Di Ting couldnt find out anything about the
Independent State.
But I know about the Independent State
In the Independent State, I have my own intelligencework. My identity is special, and I can freely enter and leave the Independent State. You can ask me anything you want to know, but I hope you wont take action against the Independent State now, and dont let them know your true situation.
I need an opportunity. When the time is right, I can take action. Wen Xin didnt tell Mu Chengxi what kind of timing she needed.
He looked into her bright, serious eyes and lowered his head, gently kissing Wen Xins eyes. Ill remember what you said. Dont worry; I wont act recklessly before youre ready to take action.
Mu Chengxi didnt want to do anything to the Independent State. He just wanted to be Wen Xins solid support. When Wen Xin needed him, he could help her with everything he had and keep her safe.
Dont worry, Alfredo will handle the matter of the Jason Family. Their family members shouldnt cause trouble for Continent F anymore. The scandal theyve been exposed to is enough to get them into trouble, and theyre already overwhelmed. They wont cause any more trouble.
An explosion had revealed a shocking scandal. The members of the Jason Family were already overwhelmed. Their cooperation with the Shadow Alliance was just a show put on by the Shadow Alliance. It was an opportunity for Geng
Zewei to attract the attention of the Medical Organization of Continent M. They were all just some unsavory methods.
Wen Xin stood up from the sofa and held Mu Chengxis hand, which had distinct joints and clear blood vessels. We can set off now!
On the way back to the old mansion of the Mu family, Mu Chengxis phone suddenly vibrated. Wen Xin thought it might be Old Madam Mu asking them toe back for dinner.
Wen Xin took out the phone from Mu Chengxis pocket and saw a string of unfamiliar numbers. Shezily leaned against the passenger seat and read out the phone number disyed on the phone.
Do you know 198xxxxxxxx?
I dont know. If youre curious, you can answer it and see who it is Mu Chengxi also understood. His phone number was very private, and only acquaintances knew his phone number.
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow, looked at Mu Chengxis natural and candid expression, and lightly tapped the phone with her slender fingers, answering the call.
Chengxi, I hesitated for a long time, but I still feel there are some things I want to talk to you about. Are you free to talk now?
Hearing the soft voice on the other end of the phone, Wen Xin turned her head to look at Mu Chengxi, her eyes showing some confusion. She couldnt guess who the person was.
Theres nothing between us to talk about. At most, were just friends..
