“Mu Chengxi stood up, not even glancing at Gu Yanche, and hastily left the private room. Mu Dong and Liang Luoyu quickly followed.
Mu Chengxu watched Mu Chengxi’s departure and then walked over to Gu Yanche. She patted him on the shoulder and said, ‘Let’s go check on them together. Chengxi isn’t unreasonable; he won’t hold a grudge against your family.’
Gu Yanche’s expression became even more worried when’ grudge’ was mentioned.
Even if he hadn’t personally dealt with the matters in Ice City, he knew about Wen Xin’s ruthless handling of those issues. She was ruthless and showed no mercy. He had personally dealt with the powerful Manny family in
F-Continent, so he knew what the consequences would be after offending Wen Xin.
When Mu Chengxi arrived at the parking lot of the technology park, he could already see Wen Xin leaning lazily against her car in the distance. One of her legs was relaxed and bent, and her movements were carefree.
Luxury cars kept arriving in the parking lot one after another. Bystanders couldn’t help but look in their direction, wondering why so many luxury cars had gathered here. Was there some kind of event?
Mu Chengxi didn’t even bother putting on his coat. As soon as his car stopped, he jumped out. He wore a black shirt with sleeves casually rolled up to his forearm, giving him a poised and elegant appearance.
He walked briskly with a sense of purpose.
‘How are you? Did they hurt you?’ Mu Chengxi approached Wen Xin, his eyes examining her up and down, concerned that she might be injured.
Wen Xin, who had been calmly playing a game, finished the round and turned to look at Mu Chengxi. She nodded towards the men kneeling not far away.
‘It’s him. He brought people to deal with me and warned me that having wealthy backers won’t help. Those powerful people, if they want me dead, I can’t escape!’
As she spoke, Wen Xin’s tone was calm, and she had a sly smile. However, the three men lying on the ground felt a chill creeping up their spines.
At that moment, they realized their mistake. They wouldn’t have taken this job if they had known that this girl had such skills.
Mu Chengxi took Wen Xin’s hand, and as he looked at her, he noticed a few scrapes on her fair hand. His somber eyes now showed a hint of killing intent.
The group following witnessed the scene with shock. They wondered why Wen Xin didn’t try to escape when four burly men surrounded her. Now, it was clear that Wen Xin was far superior to the four.
‘Miss Wen…’ Gu Yanche walked up quickly, and upon seeing that Wen Xin was unharmed, he let out a sigh of relief, but it was only a momentary relief.
Wen Xin heard Gu Yanche’s voice and withdrew her gaze from Mu Chengxi’s. She turned to look at Gu Yanche, raising an eyebrow.
‘You’re one of Mu Chengxi’s people, and Gu Xiang is from your Gu family. Handle it yourself. It’s not your family’s fault. I can let this slide regarding the Gu family… for now.’
‘But I’m not that generous. If it happens again, I can deal with the Gu family without relying on Mu Chengxi.’
Wen Xin’s aura was overwhelming, and her dark eyes displayed a hint of bloodthirstiness. She was in a foul mood, and her composure in handling this situation was purely to give face to Mu Chengxi. Otherwise, those who dared to spend money to harm her wouldn’t have an easy time.
Mu Chengxi held Wen Xin’s hand and embraced her gently, inhaling her faint fragrance, and gradually calmed down.
He opened the car door and took out Wen Xin’s backpack from the car. He hung it on his shoulder and walked out of the parking lot with Wen Xin in his arms.
As he passed by Gu Yanche, he spoke with a cold and gloomy tone, ‘Just this once, take care of your dear sister…’
When Mu Chengxi mentioned ‘dear sister,’ he deliberately emphasized it, and Gu Yanche could feel the killing intent in his tone.
Nan Xu rushed over from behind to check if Wen Xin was injured, but Wen Xin stopped her. She grabbed Nan Xu’s hand and shook her head.
“With their skills, they couldn’t possibly harm me. It’s highly unlikely.”
Wen Xin spoke confidently, her demeanor arrogant and unbridled, like a boss. The people around couldn’t help but look at her differently.
Liang Luoyu had been watching from a distance beside the car, waiting for the right moment to step in. Now, he knew it was his turn.
‘Wen Xiaoxin, the private room at Tianxiang Pavilion is already reserved. You and Young Master Xi can go have dinner. Mu Dong and I will take care of these people.’
With that, Liang Luoyu patted Mu Dong’s shoulder and calmly walked with him to deal with the situation, taking the incapacitated men with them.
“Chengxi…”
Mu Chengxu, accustomed to seeing Mu Chengxi’s carefree demeanor, was now surprised by his somber expression. She was momentarily unsure of what to say.
Unexpectedly, Mu Chengxu also followed them. Mu Chengxi raised his hand to rub his slightly throbbing temples. He held Wen Xin’s hand and walked over to Mu Chengxu.
“This is my sister… Sis, this is Wen Xin.”
Mu Chengxu looked at Wen Xin, her eyes filled with joy and astonishment. When she first saw Wen Xin earlier, she already thought the girl was a perfect match for Mu Chengxi, a true beauty. She didn’t expect that this girl was indeed Mu Chengxi’s girlfriend.
Now, she could understand why Mu Chengxi held her in high regard.
“Hello, I’m Mu Chengxu, Chengxi’s sister…” Mu Chengxu looked at Wen Xin with eyes filled with affection. She was very pleased with Wen Xin.
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxu and smiled awkwardly. She hadn’t expected to meet again so soon after their first encounter in the morning. “Hello, Sister.
I’m Wen Xin.”
“Let’s go have dinner. Let the men handle those matters.”
Mu Chengxu, acting very familiar, held Wen Xin’s other hand and walked towards Mu Chengxi’s car.
Before meeting Wen Xin, she thought Mu Chengxi was overly considerate of her. But now, she wanted to present the best things in the world to Wen Xin. Whenever she looked at Wen Xin, she found her very likable.
Wen Xin didn’t resist being led by Mu Chengxu. She followed in Mu Chengxu’s footsteps.
Mu Chengxi looked at the enthusiastic Mu Chengxu, feeling a bit helpless but not stopping her. He followed the two to his car.
The group of people who had followed them all watched Mu Chengxi. They wanted to say something but dared not speak.
Mu Chengxi looked at them with a faint gaze and spoke lazily, “Let’s go back and have dinner. Leave this matter to Liang Luoyu and Mu Dong..”
