The wealthy woman looked at Mu Chengxu in disbelief. She pointed at her and shouted, “Mu Chengxu, you’re siding with an outsider. You…”
“Second Aunt, if you keep this up, do you want Second Uncle to have to come pick you up from the police station?” Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind the wealthy woman. Hearing this, she paused, realizing she had caused a scene.
The entrance to the luxury goods store was now crowded with onlookers, who began commenting on what was happening.
When Mu Chengxi appeared, the women at the scene went crazy—such a handsome and noble man could only be seen on television. They did not expect to see him in real life.
Seeing Mu Chengxi, the Second Aunt went cold-faced. She scoffed, grabbed her handbag, and left the store.
The onlookers moved aside to let her through.
The commotion ended, and the onlookers dispersed after being persuaded by the security and the staff.
Mu Chengxu sat on the sofa in the luxury store, looking at Wen Xin with a surprised and bewildered expression.
“Is this store yours?”
“To be precise, it’s a gift from Mu Chengxi!” Wen Xin, seeing Mu Chengxu’s surprise, had the staff make some tea for her to calm her down.
Then Wen Xin turned to Mu Chengxi, “Why are you here?”
“I saw a crowd blocking the entrance and guessed someone was causing trouble, so I came to check it out. I didn’t expect it to be someone we know.”
Mu Chengxi checked his watch, speaking softly, “It’s getting late. We should go home and rest.”
“Alright.” Wen Xin nodded, then spoke to the staff, “Please wrap that khaki diamond-studded handbag. I want to give it to my future mother-in-law. Make it look nice.”
Hearing Wen Xin mention “future mother-in-law,” Mu Chengxi’s hand holding his phone trembled. Those words were incredibly charming, directly hitting his heart.
“Sis, do you like any of the bags? I can buy one for you…”
“No… no need…”
“Then pack the latest model one for me.”
Wen Xin pointed to a black bag on another shelf, thinking it was a versatile color and suitable for Mu Chengxu.
In the end, Mu Chengxu carried two boxes and got into Yuan Junye’s car. She still couldn’t believe that Mu Chengxi had bought a luxury store for Wen Xin.
Yuan Junye, seeing her expression, thought to himself: if she knew Mu Chengxi’s gesture wasn’t limited to one store but an entire luxury brand, would she lose sleep tonight…
Ever since she married Mu Jinsong, Wang Jinghua had never been humiliated like today, being kicked out by a young girl in front of so many people.
What angered her most was that Mu Chengxi and Mu Chengxu didn’t defend her but threatened her instead. She couldn’t stand such disgrace.
“Weren’t you out shopping? Why do you look like this? Who made you angry?”
Mu Jinsong came downstairs and saw Wang Jinghua sitting on the sofa and fuming.
“Your Mu family bullied me…”
Wang Jinghua exaggerated what happened at the mall. Mu Jinsong clenched his fists in anger. Again, it was Mu Chengxi…
Since Mu Chengxi declared himself the family head, Mu Jinsong’s position in the company had weakened, and his businesses had also suffered.
He thought that once Old Madam Mu’s health declined, they could stir things up and get what they wanted.
He didn’t expect Mu Chengxi to bully everyone, even his wife. That was too much!
“You’re his second aunt, and he sides with an outsider?” Mu Jinsong asked through clenched teeth.
“Yes, the girl looked poor but was wearing haute couture from Hualuo. If she wasn’t exceptionally pretty…”
“Wait! A girl? Exceptionally pretty?” Hearing her description, Mu Jinsong realized why Mu Chengxi got involved—because of that girl.
“Yes, a young girl, very pretty. I’ve never seen anyone in Beijing prettier.”
Mu Jinsong’s indignant expression turned indifferent. Wang Jinghua noticed his change and couldn’t understand it.
“What’s that expression? Why did it change when I mentioned a girl? Mu Jinsong, you…”
“Don’t be ridiculous. If there’s a girl, it makes sense for Mu Chengxi to defend her. She’s his treasure, just a countryside girl. Don’t worry; he won’t stay arrogant for long. Old Master Jiang personally brought his eldest daughter, Miss Jiang, to the old house for Mu Chengxi.”
Mu Jinsong laughed at this news. What Beijing prince? He wanted to see how Mu Chengxi would fare if he offended the Jiang family because of that woman. Although the Jiang family wasn’t as powerful as the Mu family, Old Master Jiang wasn’t someone to cross.
Even if Mu Chengxi didn’t suffer greatly, he wouldn’t have it easy!
“How is that good news? If Mu Chengxi aligns with the Jiang family, his power grows, and we lose our chance. Are you foolish?”
Wang Jinghua thought it wasn’t good news.
“You’re too simple. Mu Chengxi is infatuated with that country girl. He won’t choose Miss Jiang, so he’ll definitely offend them!”
Wang Jinghua and Mu Jinsong smiled knowingly, waiting to benefit from the conflict.
After adjusting the program at Tianye Technology, Wen Xin pulled a chair ad sat next to Chu Yunxuan, her expression once again arrogant and carefree.
“Don’t look at me like that. If you have something you want me to die for, just say it. I’d go through fire for you…” Chu Yunxuan saw Wen Xin’s expression and knew it meant trouble.
“Oh, don’t exaggerate. How could I bear to let you die? I just…”
