A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce - Chapter 640:

Chapter 640: Chapter 639: Every Step Has Its Own Calculations
“In Beijing, the only person I can think of who would do such a thing besides me is no one else. Naturally, the blame falls squarely on me.”

Listening to Mu Chengxi’s explanation, Wen Xin furrowed her brows even tighter. It seemed that she truly hadn’t considered Mu Chengxi’s situation when she had acted.

“So, is there any point in explaining now?”

“What’s the use of explanations? It would only make things worse. There’s no need to deal with it. Who sent the message just now?”

With a headache that made him terribly uncomfortable, Mu Chengxi still managed to open his eyes, took the mobile phone from Wen Xin, glanced at it, and casually replied with a few words.

This matter has nothing to do with me.”

Then he deleted Jiang Linfei’s contact information, handed the phone back to Wen Xin, closed his eyes, and nestled against Wen Xin’s shoulder.

Seeing the message from Mu Chengxi, Jiang Linfei’s brows unconsciously knitted tighter. She knew Mu Chengxi’s habits and that he was a very straightforward person.

He would admit to what he had done, and naturally, he would not admit to what he had not done. Thus, it was highly probable that this matter really had nothing to do with Mu Chengxi.

But besides Mu Chengxi, who else could have done such a thing? Only those who had been in touch with such confidential matters would know.

Jiang Linyan lifted her head and saw Old Master Jiang descending the stairs. She walked over to his side, supported him down the stairs, and helped him to sit on the sofa.

“Grandfather, did you not rest well? Why do you look so unwell?”

Jiang Linyan took the ginseng tea handed over by the butler and offered it to Old Master Jiang in a gentle tone, her brows deeply furrowed with concern. At this time, no matter what, Old Master Jiang couldn’t fall ill.

If Old Master Jiang were to fall ill, then Jiang Desheng would really be beyond help.

“How could I possibly have rested well? Your father’s affair has become such a big issue, being dragged into the matter, and everyone is panicking. My phone hasn’t stopped ringing since last night, this matter is really too troublesome!”

Old Master Jiang, annoyed, threw the ginseng tea that Jiang Linyan handed him onto the coffee table. “Your father is too naive, thinking that no one would notice his actions just because he’s in a high position. Doesn’t he think about what times we are living in? Such matters, once exposed, become huge problems!”

“I heard someone say that it was that young man from the Mu family who did it. Have you asked him what his purpose was in doing this?”

Old Master Jiang lifted his head to look at Jiang Linyan. He didn’t know about the things that had happened between Jiang Linyan and Mu Chengxi, still thinking that the relationship between Mu Chengxi and Jiang Linyan was as harmonious as ever.

“He said he didn’t do it and doesn’t know what’s going on. Grandfather, this matter really might not have anything to do with him. He’s the kind of person who would admit to what he’s done, but he wouldn’t admit to something he hasn’t done!”

Jiang Linyan gently patted Old Master Jiang’s back, contemplating who might be targeting the Jiang family. This affair seemed to be aimed at Jiang Desheng, but in reality, it implicated not just Jiang Desheng but the entire Jiang family, making everyone feel endangered.

After hearing what Jiang Linyan had said, Old Master Jiang fell into deep thought. He really couldn’t imagine who else could do such a thing. After all, the stature of the Jiang family today was not something ordinary people could touch. Yet, since that person dared to make a move, he should have considered the consequences he would face.

“Arrange for Ou Jinzhi to come see me. Now that your father is in trouble, Tianlang must not be taken away. The most important thing now is to solidify our family’s position. Make sure that Ou Jinzhi keeps Tianlang firmly in hand.”

Upon hearing that Old Master Jiang intended to hand Tianlang Base to Ou Jinzhi, Jiang Linyan’s expression instantly darkened, and her demeanor grew much colder.

“Grandfather, it’s not like Ou Jinzhi is the only one who can use Tianlang Base…”

“When I tell you to find him, just find him. I know you have a grudge against your sister, and you have issues with him as well, but haven’t you thought about the situation the Jiang family is in now? If we don’t unite with the Ou Clan, we’re going to be kicked out!”

Old Master Jiang was not someone without schemes; every step he took was meticulously planned, even now in handing Tianlang Base over to Ou Jinzhi, he had his reasons.

“Grandfather…”

Jiang Linyan still hadn’t given up and wanted to stop Old Master Jiang’s plan. Just a few days ago, her mother had a falling out with Ou Jinzhi. Now, if they let Ou Jinzhi take control of Tianlang Base, what would they do?

“Enough, go call Ou Jinzhi over here. And tell your mother to hold back a bit, and stop causing trouble for your sister!”

There were some things Old Master Jiang always knew about but chose not to address; he pretended as if nothing had happened for the sake of the family’s harmony.

Seeing that Old Master Jiang had made up his mind, Jiang Linyan no longer struggled. She dialed Ou Jinzhi’s number on her phone right in front of Old Master Jiang and informed him that Old Master Jiang wanted to see him, asking him to come over as soon as possible.

The issue with Jiang Desheng involved too many people; everyone was being cautious, and no one dared to overstep anymore, even the military training camp ended earlier than planned.

Capital University Music Department

Because of the unpleasant incident between Jiang Linfei and Tan Xingyue, Liang Luoyu specifically went to the head of the music department to adjust Tan Xingyue’s class and dormitory, so she wouldn’t have to face Jiang Linfei daily.

Jiang Linfei, still in the military training base, was unaware of Jiang Desheng’s situation; she continued to carry herself with arrogance.

“I’m telling you, even if Tan Xingyue is not in our class, I won’t make her life easy! No one who offends me has ever ended up well!”

Jiang Linfei sat in the bus, feeling very smug, believing that it must have been her father who dealt with Tan Xingyue, which prompted Liang Luoyu to change her class to avoid further conflicts with her.

Although she was not pleased with Liang Luoyu’s actions, as long as they made Tan Xingyue unhappy, she was very happy; she thought it was quite good.

“Hey, Linfei, look at the news quickly, something happened to your Jiang family!”

A boy sitting at the back of the bus, who had recently become Jiang Linfei’s lackey, suddenly spoke up. He had heard of the Jiang family’s influence before.

His family had never found a chance to get close to the Jiang family, and now, unexpectedly, the Jiang family’s second young lady was his classmate, which surprised him.

He had put a lot of effort into integrating into Jiang Linfei’s circle and didn’t expect trouble to arise so swiftly!

Hu Miao’s remark led many people to pull out their phones and start searching for news about the Jiang family, eventually all looking at Jiang Linfei with a particular expression.

Initially, Jiang Linfei did not take Hu Miao’s words to heart, until now, when everyone was looking at her with such strange expressions. She found it utterly bewildering and took out her phone from her pocket, opening the Weibo page…
