As the butler’s voice trailed off, the Mu family’s driver arrived, and they lifted Mu Zhan into the car. Qin Qiong, holding Mu Zhan’s uninjured hand, sat in the vehicle.
The butler glanced 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 Zhan’s forehead. The combination 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 didn’t 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… I’m having a miscarriage…”
Hearing Qin Qiong’s words, the butler, who had been contemplating how to explain Mu Zhan’s injury, felt his head buzz. He almost wanted to leap from the moving car – how could he face the senior Mr. Mu with such back-to-back mishaps?
“Hurry, don’t go to the Central Hospital, go to the nearest one. Lady Qin’s 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 minutes later. The butler rushed out to the emergency room to find a doctor and explained the situation of the two passengers.
Once the emergency department staff learned of the butler’s 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 can’t take responsibility for this situation!”
The driver had never expected a miscarriage in such a circumstance. The already difficult-to-explain situation had become even more complicated, and he was unsure of what to do.
“Stay here and keep watch. I’m 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 glanced at his phone, which lay 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 plans for tomorrow? I’m going to a fashion show by Huoluo.
Do you want to come with me?”
“Tomorrow? I’m afraid I can’t make it; I have to pick something up at the airport, so I can’t accompany you, ” replied Wen Xin, with little interest in Huoluo’s new collection launch.
“I thought you’d 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 Huoluo’s clothes, so she specially asked her assistant to prepare two tickets for Huoluo’s new product launch and brought Wen Xin to buy some.
Wen Xin glanced 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 Xin’s 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 Chengxi’s 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 Chengxi’s hurried manner, not objecting to his request,
“Okay, be careful on your way.”
“Alright, I’m off then.” After saying goodbye to the old madam and the others, Mu Chengxi quickly left.
With Mu Chengxi gone, Mu Chengxu’s gentle smile became more pronounced as she teasingly asked Wen Xin, “Aren’t you curious about what he’s up to?”
“He must be busy with his own things,” Wen Xin replied with a light smile, glancing at her wristwatch to hint at the time to the old madam.
“Grandma, it’s getting late, 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, it’s getting late. . Xin girl, you should head to Chengxi’s courtyard to rest. Aunt Fu will bring you breakfast in the morning. Have a good sleep; you don’t need to get up too early,” the old madam told Wen Xin, clearly showing a great deal of affection for her. Despite Wen Xin’s 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 Chengxi’s courtyard, a servant promptly delivered a cup of honey water and left without saying anything.
Looking around Mu Chengxi’s courtyard, which had a completely different decorative style from the old madam’s, Wen Xin took a moment to survey the surroundings before sitting down on a sofa that had a distinctly European style, finding it extremely comfortable.
She comfortably nestled into the sofa, took out her hefty smartphone, and logged into her Di Ting account 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, didn’t wait for long before she dialed Yan Qing’s number directly. After a few rings, the call was finally picked up.
“Boss?” Yan Qing’s voice came through uncertainly, surprised by Wen Xin’s 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 Qing’s side.
“Boss, an hour ago, a group suddenly came to raid our mine. We’re about to subdue them now. Don’t worry, we haven’t had any casualties on our side. It’s actually been quite thrilling; it’s been a long time since we’ve had something this exciting..”
