Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In her grandmother’s opinion, Tan Xingyue leaving Wen Xin might be a good choice. At least Wen Xin would not have to worry about protecting her.
“There’s no need, Grandma. Xingyue still has to participate in the provincial piano competition. She doesn’t need to leave with Aunty. You don’t have to worry about us. Just take care of yourself. I’ll go and see you when I’m done with my work.”
Wen Xin and Yang Jingyan chatted casually for a while. When Xingyue returned with Guagua and Huahua, Wen Xin told Yang Jingyan to rest well. and not to worry about them.
Wen Xin hung up the phone, and Guagua immediately broke free from Tan Xingyue’s leash. She ran to Wen Xin’s side and rubbed her head against her hand.
Looking at Guagua trying her best to please her, Flowey did not want to be outdone. She ran to Wen Xin’s side and jumped onto the sofa to rub her head against Wen Xin’s leg.
Mu Chengxi finished playing the game. He looked at the dog and cat beside Wen Xin, then at the reserved Tan Xingyue. He smiled and said, “Play with them for a while. Liang Luoyu and I will go to the study room.”
Mu Chengxi stood up. Liang Luoyu, who was behind Tan Xingyue, heard his words and followed him into the study.
“Master Xi, that Miss Chu scolded Su Li and took her away…” He did not get a chance to talk to Mu Chengxi earlier. As soon as he entered the study, Liang Luoyu told Mu Chengxi about Su Li being taken away.
Mu Chengxi was surprised that Chu Yunxuan had taken Su Li away. He had been with Wen Xin and was certain she had not called Chu Yunxuan. That meant that Chu Yunxuan had made her own decision to take Su Li away.
“Help me deal with this. Don’t let anyone find trouble with Chu Yunxuan.”
It’s been handled very cleanly. Not only did Di Ting help to deal with it, but there’s also a new force I’ve never heard of before. Those people are very new. It can be said that they’ve appeared for the first time. Master Xi, do you need to investigate?”
After Chu Yunxuan took Su Li away, Liang Luoyu went to help hide the data. He was surprised to find that Di Ting was also involved in this matter. At the same time, he discovered a force that he had never seen before.
“There’s also Di Ting? There were still newcomers? That’s strange. Are there any people from the Chou Alliance?”
Mu Chengxi tapped the table lightly with the pen and asked thoughtfully. He was curious about the relationship between Chu Yunxuan and Di Ting.
“Yes. Chu Yunxuan took Su Li away and handed her over to the people from the Chou League. I guess the Chou League found Di Ting to help with the aftermath.”
“As for that new faction, they wanted to help deal with the follow-up matters. Unfortunately, Di Ting was fast, and they didn’t give them a chance to intervene.”
Liang Luoyu sat down opposite Mu Chengxi and looked at him thoughtfully.”
Master Xi, did you hear of the incident regarding Su Li?”
“Aunt? My aunt?” Mu Chengxi lifted his gaze and looked at Liang Luoyu. He felt that Wei Mantong was delicate and weak. She did not look like someone who would fight.
“That’s right, it’s your aunt, Zhao Yuyao’s mother. When she heard that Su Li wanted Wen Xin to donate her liver to save Geng Qiu, she exploded in anger. Not only did she slap Su Li to the ground, but she also threw her over her shoulder. She was so awesome at that time. That delicate and weak look of hers completely disappeared. A confident aura replaced it.”
Liang Luoyu was still a little shocked when he recalled the scene. He never thought that Aunt Wei would have such an awesome side to her.
Mu Chengxi saw the admiration in Liang Luoyu’s eyes and believed him. He did not look surprised at all.
“Aunty looks delicate and weak, but she’s really rebellious by nature. Back then, Grandpa didn’t want Aunty to marry her husband, so Aunty eloped with her husband. It’s been 18 years, and she’s never returned to the Wei family.”
Mu Chengxi did not have the curiosity to find out about it. He only knew that after his aunt left the Wei family, his grandfather, Wei Yi, announced to the public that he had severed ties with Wei Mantong, and his aunt had never returned to the capital.
Liang Luoyu felt that Mu Chengxi did not let him in to gossip with him. He must have something for him to do.
“Master Xi, why did you ask me in?”
“The Geng family won’t be staying. We can start now. Give the information to my uncle and arrange for the Liangs to handle the other acquisition procedures.”
Mu Chengxi took out the documents he had prepared beforehand from the drawer and threw them in front of Liang Luoyu. Liang Luoyu picked them up and took a look. Her eyes were filled with shock. He did not expect Mu Chengxi to be already prepared to deal with the Geng family.
“We can start now. I don’t want to wait too long. The longer we wait, the more troublesome it will be.”
Especially after hearing Yang Jingyan’s phone call today and knowing that Geng Shikui still wanted to capture Tan Xingyue to threaten Wen Xin, he could not accept letting Geng Shikui go. He felt that the earlier he resolved this matter, the less trouble it would cause Wen Xin.
“Master Xi, there’s news about Geng Zewei. Gu Yanzhe said that Geng Zewei appeared at the Carter family’s branch in Continent F. It seems that the eldest daughter of the Carter family brought him back. The Carter family has always been on opposing sides with us. They probably want to use Geng Zewei to climb up the Shadow Alliance.”
Liang Luoyu suddenly remembered the news that Gu Yanzhe sent in the morning. The Carter family had been a little arrogant recently, especially after Gu Yanzhe had solved the trouble in Continent F. They were even more arrogant.
“Carter family? If I remember correctly, they’re into the jewelry business, right? Just break their source of gemstones, and it should be enough. It’s about time to drive them out; they’ve been causing trouble day by day. They need to learn to stay in their place; leaving that area should do the trick.”
“Alright, I’ll inform Gu Yanzhe now…” As he spoke, Liang Luoyu took the documents and prepared to leave. Halfway out, he turned around.
“Master Xi, it’s Old Master Ou’s birthday in a few days. It doesn’t seem right for the young master of the Gu family not to return. Why don’t you let Gu Yanzhe come back first?”
“Sure, let him settle the things over there and come back. The research institute’s matters are still waiting for him to handle.” Mu Chengxi lowered his head to deal with the documents in his hands. He did not look up at Liang Luoyu and only responded indifferently.
Mu Chengxi came out of the study room after he was done with his emails. He saw Wen Xin sitting alone in the living room playing games. He was a little surprised when Tan Xingyue had left.
“Where are they?”
Mu Chengxi sat beside Wen Xin, naturally pulling her into his embrace, asking gently.
“She went to the apartment opposite to rest.”
“The apartment opposite? Is that apartment yours?” Mu Chengxi tightened his grip on Wen Xin’s arm slightly. His emotions were somewhat fluctuating. He did not expect that he would become Wen Xin’s neighbor after buying a random house. What kind of special fate was this?
Wen Xin could feel Mu Chengxi’s emotional fluctuations. She responded softly and smiled faintly.” When you brought me here, I was also very surprised that my neighbor was you. But that’s not bad..”
