A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce - Chapter 687:
Chapter 687: Chapter 686: Do Some Serious Work… Little Ancestor, I Miss You So Much…
Wen Xin’s words puzzled Mu Chengxi, as her leaps in thinking were sometimes too quick for him to follow.
“Actually, this matter is quite simple.” Wen Xin said as she sat up from Mu Chengxi’s embrace and patiently explained the key points to him.
“The Jiang family needs the Old Fox’s help, and the Old Fox needs some foreign forces. So, Old Master Jiang arranged for Jiang Linyan to go out, facilitating cooperation between Luo Qiete and the Old Fox, thereby gaining the Old Fox’s assistance.”
“Are you saying Old Man Jiang naively believes that Jiang Linyan could make this cooperation happen?” Mu Chengxi instantly grasped the relationships involved after Wen Xin’s explanation.
“If Luo Qiete were so easy to manipulate, no one would be trying to curry favor with him.”
In P City’s chaotic realm, Luo Qiete was a unique entity, who had firmly established himself on his own abilities and had even quite successfully and smoothly developed his own forces, becoming the largest crime syndicate in P City.
His power had now reached a level where no one dared to provoke him lightly; no one wanted to contend with someone whose life was not considered precious to themselves.
Mu Bei, listening to the conversation of the two behind him, felt he was inadvertently gaining much knowledge as he steadily parked the car beneath Mu Chengxi’s apartment building.
“Let’s talk more upstairs.” Seeing that Mu Chengxi wanted to ask more, Wen Xin spoke indifferently, casually picking up her phone from the cup holder and pushing open the car door, she hopped out of the car.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin’s retreating figure, his deep eyes unconsciously narrowing as he chuckled helplessly.
He suddenly felt as if his vision was not as broad as Wen Xin’s. He was still contemplating matters of Beijing, while Wen Xin had already gotten a clear grasp of international affairs, without him even knowing when she had come to understand these matters.
After getting out of the car and returning home, Wen Xin had just changed her shoes when Mu Chengxi embraced her from behind. Without waiting for Wen Xin to react, he carried her straight into the bedroom.
“Hey, don’t you still want to know about Jiang Linyan’s business?”
“I’m not interested in her affairs. I told you about this matter because I didn’t want you to be annoyed by her leaving, but now it seems I was overthinking…”
“Since you’re not upset, let’s do something meaningful. My little ancestor, I’ve missed you so much…”
As he spoke, Mu Chengxi’s hands did not stop, and by the time Wen Xin was pushed down onto the bed by Mu Chengxi, she realized she was only left in her underwear…
Wen Xin supported herself against Mu Chengxi’s chest with her elbow, her voice unconsciously trembling, “Wait…wait a moment… after a shower…wait…”
“Can’t wait, let’s eat first, then shower.” Mu Chengxi’s kisses delicately scattered over Wen Xin’s body…
…
Chu Mufeng sat in the lounge, holding his phone and looking at the official announcement photo on Wen Xin’s Weibo, feeling a sense of unwillingness in his heart.
When he learned that his scandal with Wen Xin had been exposed, he felt no annoyance whatsoever; on the contrary, he felt a sense of relief and anticipation.
He didn’t know what he was expecting, but he felt that as long as he was linked to Wen Xin, even if it ruined his career in show business, he would be willing.
Regrettably, it was all just his own fantasies and expectations.
He should have woken up long ago. At his grandmother’s funeral, he should have realized that the little girl he had long pined for had already become someone else’s treasure, and he never even had the chance to confess his feelings.
“Chu Mufeng, I just passed by Meng Ge’s office and heard some astonishing news, something you definitely don’t know!”
Suddenly, the agent burst in excitedly from outside. He had been extremely sleepy just moments before, but upon hearing this news, you could say he was instantly wide awake.
Chu Mufeng watched his agent’s excited demeanor with no reaction whatsoever. If it weren’t for the fact that this agent had been with him for quite some time, he might have terminated their contract long ago.
“Hey, can’t you get a little excited? Oh right, I haven’t actually told you what it is yet. You will definitely be excited once you hear it!”
The agent excitedly sat down next to Chu Mufeng and gently patted his shoulder.
“Chu Mufeng, you couldn’t even dream this, but your pretty little sister-looking Wen Xin is actually the boss of our company. Can you even imagine something like that happening?”
Thinking of Wen Xin, the agent couldn’t help but frown unconsciously. He had previously felt that Wen Xin might become Chu Mufeng’s biggest problem, but he never imagined that she would turn out to be the company’s top boss. Wasn’t that just too unbelievable?
The agent’s words exploded in Chu Mufeng’s mind like a bomb, leaving his brain completely blank. He couldn’t quite believe the agent’s words. Wen Xin… how could she possibly have become the hidden boss of the company?
After the initial blankness in his mind, Chu Mufeng’s thoughts gradually became clearer. The fragments in his mind played out like a movie, scene by scene flashing through his mind.
From his initial struggles upon entering the entertainment industry, to being terminated by his previous agency, signing with a new company, and later, his career’s rapid ascent was nothing short of meteoric. The resources he had at his disposal were the envy of the entire circle…
He had always believed that all of this was the result of his own hard work, that it was the favor of the heavens.
But he had never considered that all of this was because of Wen Xin, the resources she provided, the help she gave, the status she had afforded him today…
After the initial excitement, the agent turned his head and saw Chu Mufeng’s troubled face. He simply couldn’t understand why Chu Mufeng wasn’t happy upon hearing this news but looked instead profoundly distressed.
“What’s wrong with you? The biggest boss of our company is your sister. What’s there to be unhappy about? You should be happy, your resources will definitely…”
“Drink? Shall we go for a drink? I suddenly feel like drinking.”
Chu Mufeng said as he stood up from the couch, not even glancing at the agent who remained seated, and walked straight out.
His mind was in turmoil right now, feeling that he owed Wen Xin far too much. He simply did not know how to act in a way that would do justice to all that Wen Xin had done for him.
Back at home, Chu Mufeng took a bottle of liquor from the home bar and downed it in one go. He was like a man wanting to drink himself into oblivion today; he didn’t want to admit that he had missed something.
The scattered bottles fell to the floor and shattered. Chu Mufeng looked at the pieces of glass on the ground and felt not the slightest hint of drunkenness.
The only thought in his mind now was to ask Wen Xin why she did so much for him, why she wouldn’t be with him, and whether all she did was unrelated to love.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Mufeng finally mustered the courage, picked up his phone, and dialed Wen Xin’s number. He wanted a definitive answer; perhaps then, his heart wouldn’t feel so heavy.
The phone rang several times and was then answered, with a cool male voice coming through, “Wen Xin is asleep. Is there something you need?”
