Chapter 224: Two People Testing Each Other
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Chengxi’s dark and deep eyes glanced at Mu Bei, who was standing at the side. He seemed to be complaining that what Mu Bei had done was a little unbelievable.
Mu Bei looked at those people and hesitated for a moment. He did not explain himself. To be honest, he did not believe that these people could know any core information.
“We checked their phones. It was someone they called Young Master who asked them to come over. Their goal was to go to a warehouse near the dock of Ancient Market Town. I’ve already arranged for people to take a look at that warehouse. There are many firearms and rare earths inside.”
Mu Bei hurriedly told him about his investigation and tried his best to make up for his negligence.
Mu Chengxi looked up at Mu Bei and smiled.” You’re quite fast this time.”
“Master Xi, you must be joking. These people should be the Young Master’s subordinates. One of them couldn’t handle it. Speaking of which, they were raised by the Shadow Alliance in an orphanage overseas since they were young. They only followed the Young Master recently. This is the first time they came to look for the Young Master. Only the one who escaped saw the Young Master’s appearance.”
When he got to the point, Mu Bei lowered his head. He did not expect that the person they had lost was the most important one among them.
Mu Chengxi looked at Mu Bei’s familiar action of lowering his head and admitting his mistake. His beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was already used to Mu Bei’s appearance when he did something wrong.
“Take those people away first. Pay attention to the surrounding situation. If the Shadow Alliance makes any movements, inform me immediately. Also, get someone to check if anyone is looking for them. If there is, catch them. If they escape, you can go work in a mine on Continent F.”
Mu Chengxi’s voice was indifferent, but Mu Bei could tell that Mu Chengxi was not joking. His Master Xi really wanted him to go mining.
Mu Chengxi sat on the sofa and looked at the screensaver on his phone. He took a photo of Wen Xin while she was sleeping.
He felt that Wen Xin looked too sweet when she was sleeping. He had already planned that in the future, he must have a daughter with Wen Xin, so that he could raise her from a young age.
Beep… Mu Chengxi’s cell phone suddenly rang. Mu Chengxi looked at the message, and a bright smile appeared on his cold lips. It was a message from Wen Xin.
[What are you busy with? Remember to eat!]
Wen Xin looked at her Dhone. She wanted to confirm Mu Chengxi’s location so that he wouldn’t catch her when she went to look for Chu Yunxuan. That way, he wouldn’t know that Chu Yunxuan was a dangerous person.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s message and glanced at the time. Wen Xin thought that he had gone to Continent F this time. In order not to let Wen Xin know about the Shadow Alliance, Mu Chengxi lied to Wen Xin for the first time. “I just had dinner. How are you doing at school? Did anyone cause you trouble?”
“No, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. Just take care of your matters. I’ve been busy practicing with Tan Xingyue recently. You go ahead. I’m still in class.”
Wen Xin looked at her phone and smiled in satisfaction. After confirming that Mu Chengxi was in Continent F, Wen Xin booked a plane ticket to Luocheng. She planned to leave for Luocheng tomorrow night and make arrangements to stop the Shadow Alliance’s shipment.
Since I can’t take revenge on those enemies directly, why not collect some interest first? Is that too much to ask?
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s reply and recalled the video of Wen Xin playing the violin that was circulating on the internet.
He had never been interested in music, but after listening to her violin, he felt for the first time that the sound of the violin was so beautiful.
After the evening self-study session, Wen Xin did not return to the dormitory with Tan Xingyue and the others. Instead, she went off-campus to meet someone and obtained some items, including vials of injectables. These were specifically sent to Wen Xin as requested.
When Wen Xin returned to her dormitory with her backpack, she heard a commotion coming from her dormitory. She walked to the door but was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, she leaned lazily against the door frame and looked inside.
“Tan Xingyue, I didn’t mean to break your phone. I just thought the sticker on your phone looked nice, so I picked it up and looked.”
The person who spoke was Tang Luoluo. Tang Luoluo was a rare guest to their dormitory. Wen Xin could not help but narrow her eyes when she suddenly appeared in their dormitory.
“I can testify that Tang Luoluo only picked up Tan Xingyue’s phone because she thought the back sticker looked nice. Tan Xingyue came over and snatched it, so the phone fell. It has nothing to do with Tang Luoluo.”
The girl who came to the dormitory with Tang Luoluo shielded the aggrieved Tang Luoluo behind her. She didn’t expect Gu Yifei and Miao Xianhe, who had always been amiable in class, to be so fierce. Fortunately, Wen Xin wasn’t around. If not, they would be even more terrifying.
“Don’t play the victim card so quickly, okay? Xingyue’s phone was on the table, and she just turned around to get some water. You took Xingyue’s phone and went through it recklessly. Only then did Xingyue try to retrieve her phone. You intentionally dropped Xingyue’s phone into the water basin.”
Gu Yifei would not let Tan Xingyue suffer. She stood up and protected Tan Xingyue behind her, ready to make a move at any time.
“Xingyue, I really didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t manage to grab it when you tried to snatch it. You’re so rich anvwav. You can even afford Wen Xin’s Diano that costs more than 30 million. You won’t mind a phone, right?”
Tang Luoluo had seen the man beside Wen Xin and the way Liang Luoyu paid the bill. She felt that since Tan Xingyue and Liang Luoyu had a relationship, a phone that cost more than 10,000 yuan was not worth mentioning in her eyes.
“Who said that just because we have money, we can be ruined by others?” Wen Xin stood outside the dormitory door and spoke in a cold voice.
The dormitory was filled with people. All of them looked in the direction of the door and consciously made way for her.
Wen Xin carried her backpack in one hand and four cups of milk tea in the other. She walked in lazily, looking extremely arrogant and unruly. She was no longer as gentle as before. Now, she looked a little violent and not to be trifled with.
“Wen…Wen Xin…l…”
“You what? You snatched Tan Xingyue’s phone just to get Liang Luoyu’s contact information? I can give it to you! Why are you making things difficult for Tan
Xingyue?”
Wen Xin’s bright black eyes stared intently at Tang Luoluo, who was hiding behind the girl. Her gaze was dangerous and cold, without a trace of warmth.
This was the first time those around them had seen Wen Xin like this. When they first saw Wen Xin, they were indeed very afraid of Wen Xin. They felt that her personality was cold and valiant, and it was obvious that she was someone they could not afford to offend.
However, as they got to know each other, they realized that Wen Xin did not like being too close to others. She was not the kind of person who was not to be trifled with, so many people had forgotten her true nature.
“I didn’t. I don’t even know that person. Why would I want his contact information? I just wanted to see the back of Tan Xingyue’s phone.. I…”
