Chapter 882: Chapter 880: I Want Wen Xin, You Want Mu Chengxi, Let’s Cooperate
“What did you bring me here for? If I remember correctly, I am of no use to you anymore!”
During her time here, Jiang Linyan had already heard about Old Master Jiang’s death. Now that the Jiang family had lost Old Master Jiang, she didn’t know who could save the Jiang family.
So, at this moment, Jiang Linyan didn’t want to struggle anymore. She felt that there was no point in struggling—if there was nothing left of the Jiang family, even if she went back, she would be like a rat crossing the street, and Mu Chengxi would not let her off.
“Who says you’re of no use? You may not be useful in other aspects, but showing up at Mu Chengxi’s engagement party is where you are most valuable.”
“Let’s work together,” Luo Qiete said, looking at Jiang Linyan. He pulled a chair over, sat down opposite her, and looked very serious.
“I want Wen Xin, and you want Mu Chengxi, so let’s act separately. As long as you show up at the party, Mu Chengxi will definitely want to capture you. I will give you a hallucinogenic drug. I can guarantee it will let you easily control Mu Chengxi. At that time, you can do whatever you want!”
“All you need to do is lure Mu Chengxi to me!”
Luo Qiete was eager to get Wen Xin. He thought that as long as he could draw Mu Chengxi’s attention and Jiang Linyan could hold Mu Chengxi back, it would be easy to take Wen Xin away, without considering any other dangers.
Jiang Linyan, observing Luo Qiete’s naive demeanor, couldn’t imagine that a man who struck terror into people’s hearts could make such a muddled decision.
However, Jiang Linyan didn’t intend to argue against Luo Qiete’s ideas, because just like Luo Qiete, she had lost all reason. She too wanted to get her hands on Mu Chengxi—this was probably her only chance!
“Fine, I agree. As long as you arrange everything, I am willing to follow your plan. I will help you take Wen Xin out; you just have to hand Mu Chengxi over to me!”
Jiang Linyan agreed to Luo Qiete’s proposal without any hesitation, and Luo Qiete, carried away by the moment, began to discuss the battle plan with her.
Listening to Jiang Linyan describe the Mu family’s old mansion, Luo Qiete felt even more that cooperating with Jiang Linyan was an excellent decision. According to her familiarity with the Mu family, it could save him a lot of trouble.
When Geng Qiu got home from the restaurant, she told Old Jiang about seeing Wen Xin outside the hotel. Old Jiang, seeing the photo in Geng Qiu’s hand, excitedly hugged Geng Qiu and gave her a strong kiss.
“You smart girl, with such a photo, our position is even more convincing. Rest assured, we will definitely ruin the engagement party of Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi. When that time comes, Wen Xin’s reputation will be in tatters, and Mu Chengxi won’t have a good outcome either!”
After saying that, Old Jiang picked up Geng Qiu and took her to the room prepared for her by the butler.
Madam Jiang walked out of her room, just in time to hear the indecent noises coming from the room. With a cold sneer on her lips, she turned and headed upstairs.
The next morning, Wen Xin got up early from the bed. Mu Chengxi lay in bed watching Wen Xin’s movements and stretched out his hand to grasp her wrist, pulling Wen Xin back into his embrace.
“It’s just past six, where are you going?” Mu Chengxi asked, half-squinting at Wen Xin in his arms, his tone gentle.
They had returned from the bar after one in the morning the previous day; Mu Chengxi felt they hadn’t slept much yet and found it strange that Wen Xin was getting up so early.
“I’m going to pick up my foster father at the airport. He sent a message last night saying that he would arrive in Beijing around eight o’clock this morning. I’m going to wash up now, then head to the airport!”
Wen Xin had also been somewhat shocked when she saw the message from the old Alliance Master of the Chou League after her bath last night.
However, before she had a chance to discuss it with Mu Chengxi, he had thoroughly swept her off her feet, leaving no opportunity for conversation.
After listening to Wen Xin’s explanation, Mu Chengxi glanced at his phone to check the time and then pulled Wen Xin out of bed with him.
“We have time, I’ll drive you there and accompany you to pick up Old Master Jiang.”
When Mu Chengxi mentioned that the old Alliance Master of the Chou League was surnamed Jiang, Wen Xin was slightly startled and looked up at Mu Chengxi, who had just entered the bathroom.
“How do you know his surname is Jiang?”
Mu Chengxi, who was in the bathroom squeezing toothpaste, heard Wen Xin’s question and after finishing with the toothpaste, poked his head out to look at Wen Xin, who was still standing there, and smiled faintly.
“If I’m planning to deal with this matter, I naturally need to understand his identity. I had someone investigate the Chou League for me. The Chou League seems much simpler than the Shadow Alliance; except for not being able to find the identity of their young master, other identities are still easily traceable!”
As Mu Chengxi spoke, his deep eyes were fixed on Wen Xin, his gaze carrying a light smile as if he were joking with her.
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi’s expression, not showing any anxiety, and simply raised her eyebrows lightly, smiling faintly.
“The Chou League is merely more powerful in strength; since they’ve done nothing heinous, they naturally aren’t worried about being found. But to obtain information on the Chou League, one can’t be just anybody; where did you buy this information from?”
Wen Xin walked to the bathroom door as she talked, leaning casually against the door frame and looking at Mu Chengxi, who was shaving. She thought he looked very sexy at that moment.
“From Di Ting!”
In these matters, Mu Chengxi had no intention of hiding anything from Wen Xin; he had asked Mu Dong to place an order on Di Ting.
He had thought that no one would take the order, but unexpectedly, not only did someone accept it, but they also replied within two hours, which was also beyond what Mu Dong had anticipated.
Listening to Mu Chengxi’s answer, Wen Xin wasn’t very surprised; it seems Yan Qing might have guessed that Mu Chengxi wanted the information, so he handed over the detailed data on the Chou League to Mu Dong.
It looks like Yan Qing no longer considered Mu Chengxi an outsider, and this gave Wen Xin a sense of impending treachery from Yan Qing…
It seemed necessary to deal with Yan Qing and the others properly!
Mu Chengxi got himself ready and then, taking Wen Xin by the arm, led her into the bathroom, placing the toothbrush with pre-squeezed toothpaste in her hand and gently rubbed the top of Wen Xin’s head.
“Hurry up and brush your teeth, I’ll go change, and then I’ll see what’s in the kitchen to prepare some breakfast for you so you won’t feel uncomfortable riding in the car on an empty stomach.”
Mu Chengxi was well versed in Wen Xin’s habits. He knew she would feel sick riding in the car on an empty stomach, so no matter the situation, he never let Wen Xin travel on an empty stomach.
