Chapter 846: Chapter 844: Confidence? There’s No Confidence in Front of Mu Chengxi
 

Watching the woman by his side, Wen Yunuo’s gaze suddenly turned cold. If she hadn’t held any value to utilize, why would he share the meat he had in hand with others?

“I heard that back in Independent State, Mu Chengxi treated you specially—you were the only one who could get close to Mu Chengxi. How come you suddenly lost your confidence?”

“Confidence? If it weren’t for my confidence, my family wouldn’t have ended up in this mess,” the woman said with a self-mocking laugh.

“Your family, because of Mu Chengxi?” After hearing the woman’s words, Wen Yunuo involuntarily furrowed his brow. The news he received seemed different from what she had mentioned. He remembered the rumors that it was his family that had offended the overlord of Independent State.

“Yes, funny, right? I even thought I was someone special to Mu Chengxi, but when the overlord of Independent State found out about what I did to Mu Chengxi, and I received punishment, I thought he would save me, but I ended up waiting in vain…”

“So I can’t help you with your problem. If you need funding, we can talk, though. Even though my family left Independent State, we still have some money.”

Confidently, the woman looked at Wen Yunuo. She had already investigated the reason for Wen Yunuo’s eagerness to collaborate with them during her trip over. Without financial support, their company would encounter problems within a month due to poor management.

“Let’s talk back at the company.” There was a probing look in Wen Yunuo’s gentle gaze; he still didn’t want to give up this pawn. He wanted to create a rift between Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin. Only by separating them would he have the chance to turn the tables; otherwise, there really wasn’t much opportunity.

“Let’s talk about it tomorrow. I feel like going to a bar for a drink, what do you think, Mr. Wen, care to join me for a drink?”

The woman placed one hand on Wen Yunuo’s chest, her fingers gently teasing the buttons on his chest shirt, as she softly spoke.

Watching the seemingly innocent girl beside him suddenly become enchanting, Wen Yunuo’s gentle eyes slightly darkened.

“If the princess likes it, then I must oblige. Consider it a welcome for you!”

With that, Wen Yunuo coldly spoke to the driver, “To the bar…”

Having gotten what she wanted, the woman got up from Wen Yunuo and gave a light, hooked smile, “I’m no longer any princess, just call me Ailin. I hope we can collaborate pleasantly in the future.”

After Mu Chengxi brought Wen Xin back home, she opened her eyes and hooked her arms around Mu Chengxi’s neck, softly kissing the corner of his lips, and then cheekily said, “Thanks for your hard work!”

With a proud look, Mu Chengxi placed Wen Xin on the cabinet at the entrance, started undressing her, and within moments, the two…

In the bar, Ling Yichen brought a group that had drunk quite a bit back to the bar.

When everyone had almost enough to drink, Gu Yanzhe stood up, ready to head to the restroom. Just as he turned around unintentionally, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. He couldn’t believe it and raised his hand to rub his eyes.

After confirming several times, he could be sure that the person was real and not just someone he saw because he was drunk.

It seems that Beijing has become increasingly chaotic. The appearance of this woman here made Gu Yanzhe somewhat uneasy, just wondering if Miss Wen knew about this woman, Ailin’s existence, what unthinkable actions she might take.

Late at night, just as Xiao Mi had fallen asleep, she felt some noise outside the window. She lay in bed, suddenly opening her eyes, and did not take any further action, as if to confirm whether there was indeed any sound outside.

Due to the school’s special consideration, Xiao Mi was assigned a solitary dormitory in the medical school. Being somewhat reclusive and unsure how to interact with others, she thought this arrangement was very suitable for her.

At this moment, she felt even more that this was a good thing. Had she been living with a roommate, she might have hesitated while dealing with someone.

Xiao Mi picked up the surgical knife she always carried from beside her pillow, but just as she prepared to throw the knife, she suddenly remembered what Wen Xin had said… Her hands and the knife were meant to save lives.

Thinking this, Xiao Mi half-squinted her eyes and sat up from the bed. She did not hold the surgical knife but quietly watched the figure climbing through the window.

She moved swiftly off the bed without making a sound…

Just as the man opened the window and was about to climb through, Xiao Mi was already by his side, though it was unclear when she had appeared there.

With a stern expression, Xiao Mi startled the man who had just climbed in, causing him to gasp in surprise and stand rigid, too nervous to say anything.

Xiao Mi did not seem to want to give the man in black a chance to speak. She lifted her foot and, without hesitation, kicked the man out of the window.

Watching the man’s flying silhouette, Xiao Mi’s lips slightly curled up, and she calculated that, falling from the sixteenth floor, this person would not have much chance of survival…

The next morning, Jingda University’s campus was abuzz as it witnessed the dead body of an unidentified person…

Wen Xin lay on Mu Chengxi’s shoulder, looking at the news on Jingda University’s forum, and pondered thoughtfully. She wondered if this person could have been sent by Independent State, otherwise how could his death have coincidentally occurred right below Xiao Mi’s dormitory.

Mu Chengxi took the smartphone from Wen Xin’s hands, wrapped his arms around her, and looked at her expressionlessly. “The apartment above is still vacant, why don’t we let Xiao Mi move up there? Have Mo Xuan take her back and forth every day.”

Mu Chengxi disliked seeing Wen Xin frown and worry over others. He had said before, he could resolve any issue.

Wen Xin hugged Mu Chengxi’s waist, leaning against his chest. She looked up and whispered with a husky voice.

“Do you think Xiao Mi would be scared of such incidents? He is ranked third on the leaderboard. I’m just surprised that Xiao Mi chose to act this way, it seems my words had an effect.”

Mu Chengxi, observing Wen Xin’s composed expression, was curious to see Xiao Mi’s current expression. He had to admit the strength of the Wen family’s bloodline; the sisters reacted in almost identical ways under such circumstances, which was thought-provoking.

Just then, Wen Xin’s phone suddenly rang. Mu Chengxi picked up the phone, which he had casually tossed aside, glanced at it, and handed it to Wen Xin.

Wen Xin took the phone, saw that it was a call from Wen Huai, and anticipated that Wen Huai had probably just arrived at the university today, hearing about this incident.

Wen Xin took the phone, sat up straight, and answered in a calm tone, “Have you returned?”
