Chapter 473: Please Don ‘t Mention You Know Me
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi’s expression, her pretty eyes squinting slightly. She felt Mu Chengxi had not read psychology books in vain; he had already learned to lie.
However, Wen Xin had no intention of delving deeper. She had her own secrets from Mu Chengxi, and she could understand him keeping things from her; it was normal.
Removing her hand from Mu Chengxi’s embrace, Wen Xin pinched his ear and leaned her head against his shoulder. “Things are complicated, so just be careful and take care of yourself.”
“Mm, don’t worry,” Mu Chengxi replied, lowering his head to kiss Wen Xin. His restless hands wandered…
When Wen Xin woke up the next day, it was already noon. Liang Luoyu had taken Tang Xingyue and Ling Xuer back to Beijing early in the morning, not wanting to disturb Wen Xin.
Getting up from bed, Wen Xin went to the bathroom to freshen up. When she came out of the bedroom, she found herself alone at home. She picked up her phone from the bedroom and called Mu Chengxi.
“What’s up? Awake now?” Mu Chengxi’s voice was very gentle.
Sitting across from Mu Chengxi, Mayer heard his usually serious and cold boss
speaking gently and wondered if something was wrong with his ears.
“Mm, awake now. Where did you all go?” Wen Xin’s voice was hoarse from just waking up.
To Mu Chengxi, her voice sounded as light as a feather, making his heart itch. He smiled softly. “Come downstairs. Mu Bei prepared lunch, and it’s ready for you.”
“Oh.” Wen Xin hung up the phone went to the cloakroom to change; she couldn’t wear home clothes downstairs.
When Wen Xin came downstairs, it was her first time entering the place where Mu Bei and Liang Luoyu lived. The apartment’s decoration style was not much different from upstairs, except that Mu Chengxi’s office area had been turned into a leisure area.
When Wen Xin entered, Wen Huai and Zhao Yuyao were packing up. They looked up at Wen Xin.
“Little Aunt, awake now? We’ll be setting off tonight. When we come back, I won’t be the same as I am now!”
Hearing Zhao Yuyao’s words, Wen Xin’s eye twitched involuntarily. She walked to Wen Huai’s side, checking the things he had packed.
Wen Xin draped her arm over Wen Huai’s shoulder, lazily leaning against him.
“When you get there, stay away from him a bit. He’s not right in the head and might embarrass you.”
“Hey, Little Aunt, he’s your own brother, but I’m also…”
“No! You’re not! There’s nothing between us. Please, during training, don’t mention that you know Mu Chengxi. I hope you can complete the training based on your own abilities!”
Wen Xin had originally wanted to say she didn’t want to embarrass herself with him, but she softened her words. She could already guess what funny things might happen when Zhao Yuyao got there—crying was probably just a minor issue.
Feeling looked down upon by Wen Xin, Zhao Yuyao felt a serious blow to his confidence and self-esteem. He couldn’t accept Wen Xin’s contempt.
“Little Aunt, let me tell you, you can think of me as weak, but you can’t look down on me. I’ll make you see me in a different light.”
Mu Chengxi and Mayer came out of the study and saw Zhao Yuyao earnestly assuring Wen Xin. Mu Chengxi seemed to see Liang Luoyu’s shadow.
When Mayer saw Wen Xin, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked to her, respectfully greeting her, “Miss Wen, hello.”
“I didn’t expect you to come so early, Mayer,” Wen Xin raised her eyebrows and chuckled lightly.
“Of course, Miss Wen, would you like to join us at the base?” Mayer had witnessed Wen Xin’s skills firsthand last time, and he had always admired her. This training would be even more interesting if Wen Xin could join them at the base.
“I won’t go. I have my own matters to attend to. I’ll leave them both to you.
Don’t let anvone know their identities: iust treat them like ordinarv trainees.” Wen Xin didn’t want them to be treated differently, after all, they were there to train, not to be pampered.
“With Miss Wen’s assurance, I’m at ease. I’ll take care of the two young masters and ensure they undergo a transformation.”
When Mayer mentioned a transformation, Mu Bei, preparing lunch in the kitchen, couldn’t help but tremble involuntarily.
Was Mayer looking for trouble? Which of these two young masters can be trifled with? If they were injured, it wouldn’t be as simple as apologizing with death.
“Master Xi, Miss Wen is ready to eat,” Mu Bei intervened before Mayer could say anything more shocking. He was worried that Mayer might say something even more outrageous and put himself in a difficult position.
Wen Xin walked with Wen Huai toward the dining room, and Mu Chengxi followed. Before Wen Xin could use her foot to pull out the chair, he already positioned it for her.
After lunch, Wen Xin packed some life-saving medicines for Wen Huai and Zhao Yuyao in their backpacks. She didn’t say anything more and just went upstairs.
“Master Xi, is Miss Wen feeling unwell?”
Watching Wen Xin’s departing figure, Mayer felt puzzled. He wondered if he had said something wrong. Otherwise, why did Wen Xin seem upset after seeing him?
“It’s nothing to do with you. Take them to the airport. I won’t see them off. Just make sure they don’t get hurt during training.”
Seeing the medicine Wen Xin had prepared for Wen Huai, Mu Chengxi knew that Wen Xin was reluctant to let Wen Huai go for training.
Looking at Wen Huai’s departing figure, he hesitated. If he handed Ghost’s Domain over to Wen Huai, he didn’t know if Wen Xin would fight him to the death.
It seemed like this plan needed to be put on hold.
After seeing Wen Huai and Zhao Yuyao off, Mu Chengxi returned home and found Wen Xin playing a game. Chu Yunxuan’s voice came from the game.
“Wen Xin, what time is your flight tomorrow? I’m already here, and you aren’t here yet. Can you be on time?”
Arranged by Chu Yunxuan, she and Yan Yu arrived in N Port a day earlier. The situation was somewhat special because Yan Yu was worried about Wen Xin’s friend, the divine physician, being in danger. So Chu Yunxuan came along with Yan Yu, and Wen Xin tacitly agreed to this arrangement.
“Tomorrow morning at nine. I’ll arrive around four in the afternoon.”
Hearing the door open, Wen Xin glanced at Mu Chengxi. She didn’t hide anything from him: her flight was arranged by Mu Bei, and Mu Chengxi knew better than anyone about the timing and destination.
“Is Mr. Mu not coming with you this time?”
“He’s not coming. He has other matters to attend to. I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”
Seeing Mu Chengxi had something to say, Wen Xin hung up Chu Yunxuan’s call..
