Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Chengxiâs words made Chu Yunxuanâs face turn pale, and she instinctively stepped back. Fortunately, Mu Nan supported her, preventing her from falling.
âThis gentleman, thatâs a rather harsh way to put it, isnât it? IâŠâ Yu Yan tried to say.
âStop talking, Yan Yu. Heâs not wrong; this is indeed my fault. I shouldnât have let her go upstairs alone,â Chu Yunxuan steadied herself, thanked Mu Nan, and looked up at Mu Chengxiâs cold, handsome face.
After hesitating, she slowly said. âI canât explain this to you now. Once Wen Xin wakes up, youâll understand.â
Chu Yunxuan didnât know what to say to keep Mu Chengxi from getting angry. She didnât want him to take his anger out on Wen Xin. It would be better for Wen Xin to explain things herself.
âAt this point, you still want to hide it? Mu Nan, go check, turn N Port upside down if you have to, but find out everything.â đđżeeđđČđŻđ§ođel.đođ
Mu Chengxiâs anger had reached its peak. He hadnât expected things to turn out this way, and they were still hiding it from him.
âYes, Iâll go right now,â Mu Nan replied, preparing to leave to investigate.
However, before he could leave, Chu Yunxuan grabbed his wrist tightly, pleading with Mu Chengxi with her eyes.
âMu Chengxi, canât this wait until Wen Xin wakes up to explain? Does it have to be blown up like this? Itâs already a big mess, and I donât want more people to know about this!â
Chu Yunxuan didnât care about anything else now. Even if Mu Chengxi blamed her, she didnât want to say a word. She didnât want to expose too much about Wen Xin that others shouldnât know.
If Mu Nan went to investigate, it would inevitably expose everything, and that would be too dangerous.
Meeting Chu Yunxuanâs pleading eyes, Mu Chengxi ruffled his hair in frustration and said nothing more before turning towards the hospital room.
Before entering Wen Xinâs hospital room, Mu Chengxi suddenly stopped and spoke coldly, âMu Nan, go ask the doctor and prepare some food according to the doctorâs advice.â
âYes, Master Xi, Iâll do it right away,â Mu Nan hurriedly responded.
After Mu Chengxi entered the hospital room, Mu Nan looked down at his wrist that Chu Yunxuan was still holding and thought to himself that this girl had quite a strong grip.
âPlease let go; I need to ask the doctor what Miss Wen can eat.â
âOh, Iâm sorry.â
Chu Yunxuan hastily released Mu Nanâs hand. Her mind was a bit overwhelmed, and she awkwardly smiled at Mu Nan.
Mu Chengxiâs anger was indeed terrifying. She felt relieved that she had contacted Mu Chengxi after Wen Xinâs accident. Otherwise, hiding it from him, she feared she couldnât live in peace.
The stunned Yan Yu helped Chu Yunxuan sit on a bench in the corridor, wrapping her arms tightly around Chu Yunxuan and whispering in her ear. âXuan sister, is this man really our bossâs man? Heâs so terrifying! He even dares to lose his temper at you?â
Yan Yu, who usually worked in the Truth Listener base on network-related tasks, seldom had the chance to meet people face-to-face. She was still not used to Mu Chengxiâs temper and was even afraid of him.
Today, the encounter with Mu Chengxi had cast a lasting shadow over her heart.
Chu Yunxuan sighed lightly while sitting on the bench, feeling like she had survived a disaster. âThe bossâs man is a big shot. You could look up Mu Chengxiâs background. Whether in Beijing or on Continent F, heâs considered a top talent. He has deep-rooted bases in N Port and on Whether in Beijing or on Continent F, heâs considered a top talent. He has deep-rooted bases in N Port and on Zizhou Island.â
âAll these are just what he allows others to know. Who knows how many identities he has that he doesnât want revealed? Compared to our boss, itâs pretty much an even match.â
Chu Yunxuan knew Wen Xinâs identity, so she dared not belittle her own boss nor underestimate Mu Chengxiâs capabilities.
From the first glance at Mu Chengxiâs profile, she knew this man was not as âsimpleâ as the documents suggested.
Yan Yu used a specialized phone to search for Mu Chengxiâs information on the Truth Listenerâs intranet. After finding the information, she involuntarily gasped in fear, now even more afraid of that man.
âDonât be scared. Once the boss wakes up, he wonât be so arrogant. No matter how powerful he is, heâs just an exceptional man with no significant temper in front of the boss.â
Chu Yunxuanâs seductive eyes meaningfully glanced toward the direction of the hospital room. âThis might just be a case of âlike cures like.ââ
By the afternoon, Geng Zewei in Ice City found out that missiles had bombed his villa.
Geng Qiu called him to say that when she returned, not only was it reduced to ruins, but only the black gate still stood in its original place.
Geng Zewei hung up the phone from Geng Qiu and slumped on the sofa. He had guessed why it had come to thisâhe had been too greedy, foolishly hoping that he could use the divine doctor.
Geng Qiuâs words brought him back to reality. The divine doctor was a person sought after by the whole world. No one could find him if he didnât want to be found.
How naive he had been to think that the divine doctor could be employed by him, to become one of his subordinates.
Now, it seemed that Aiden, whom he had managed to capture with great difficulty, must have died on the spot. There were still secrets he hadnât managed to extract, and things he wanted that he hadnât obtained. Now, he truly had nothing leftâŠ
Geng Zewei sat despondently on the sofa, filled only with regret. He couldnât even imagine in his dreams that a single misstep would ruin the strategy he had painstakingly orchestrated.
He raised his hand and gestured to his assistant, âArrange a flight back to N Port, lock down the information, donât let it be known that Aiden is dead.â
âYes, Iâll take care of it right away.â
The assistant immediately responded and turned to make the arrangements. He was also shocked upon hearing the news, unable to believe someone could be so bold to do such a thing.
When Wen Xin finally awoke late at night, Mu Chengxi was sitting by the bedside, his eyes fixed on her, worried that he might miss any sign of danger.
Wen Xin opened her eyes to see Mu Chengxiâs bloodshot eyes. She sleepily raised her hand, gently caressing his cheek.
âWhy are you still angry? In my dream, you were mad at me. You wouldnât even answer me. Am I still dreaming? It must be, you are in Continent F, you canât be here, but⊠I miss you so muchâŠâ
At that moment, Wen Xinâs emotions were complex. Her defenses had instantly crumpled when she realized that Aiden was actually Burke.
