Chapter 751: Chapter 750: Treating Miss Wen like Master Xi’s Ancestor
“Miss Wen, at 2:30, there’s another transaction. Muxi asked me to ask if you’d like to come along?”
“I’m not going…”
Wen Xin coldly responded, lay back on the bed, covered herself with the blanket, and continued to sleep; she was so tired…
Mu Bei looked at the tightly shut door, swallowed hard, and turned with a faint expression to go downstairs, ready to relay Wen Xin’s decision to Muxi.
From the moment Wen Xin had made her request, he had guessed her purpose. After successfully tormenting Muxi, it was too normal for Wen Xin to not want to be involved in their dealings.
When Muxi heard Mu Bei’s words, he looked up at him with tightly furrowed brows, only then realizing that something was amiss.
“Mu Bei, did you know from the beginning that Miss Wen wasn’t interested in the transaction? Was her sole purpose in coming just to play around?”
“What Miss Wen came here for, don’t you understand, Muxi? All the things Miss Wen has done along the way, nobody understands better than you, right?”
As Mu Bei spoke, his gaze unintentionally landed on his injured arm, some words he couldn’t directly say since it wouldn’t sound good to say that their own matriarch was targeting her subordinates.
After Mu Bei spoke, Muxi instantly understood the meaning behind his words — it was all targeted at him. He had thought that his behavior had been too excessive and provoked Wen Xin to take action.
Now he understood — Wen Xin was simply biding her time to deal with him!
Thinking this, Muxi laughed helplessly. He looked at Mu Bei and asked with some uncertainty, “Have you known since the time you came over that Miss Wen was going to take action against me?”
“Who could know such a thing, but I know that if you hadn’t provoked Miss Wen, she definitely wouldn’t have laid a hand on you. After all, Miss Wen is quite lazy; she doesn’t like doing things that waste energy!”
As he said this, Mu Bei looked at Muxi with a sympathetic gaze.
“You might as well stop thinking about it. You can’t beat Miss Wen, and in terms of status and ability, you are still overwhelmed by Miss Wen’s power. From now on, it’s better to just properly treat Miss Wen as Master Xi’s highly revered ancestor, considering Miss Wen is someone even Master Xi holds in high regard.”
After kindheartedly reminding Muxi, Mu Bei turned and left. Since Miss Wen was not going to the transaction site, he naturally would not either. His task was to take care of Miss Wen, and the other matters didn’t concern him much.
As Wen Xin was deep asleep, her phone suddenly vibrated. She thought it was Mu Chengxi calling, but unexpectedly it was Chu Yunxuan calling.
She lifted her hand to rub her somewhat sore temples, sat up, and answered the call.
“What’s up?”
Wen Xin’s voice was hoarse and her tone gentle, sounding very enticing. Fortunately, it was Chu Yunxuan on the other end; otherwise, who could withstand such a captivating voice?
“Everything has been arranged in Country D. From the photos passed back, Liang Luoyu has already arrived by Tan Xingyue’s side, so it’s very safe there; you don’t need to worry.”
“We are preparing to leave here in City P. An hour ago, Sun Ning already boarded the flight back to the country, and the research institute has taken over You Su’s follow-up treatment.”
“Also… Chu Mufeng has returned to the film crew. I didn’t inquire further about the specifics of the situation.”
When mentioning Chu Mufeng, Chu Yunxuan also felt speechless. Evidently, after the talks with Luo Qiete fell through, she still got the news that Chu Mufeng had returned safely, and she really couldn’t fathom what the big boss was thinking.
Had the deal suddenly become boring, making you decide not to bother anymore?
“Yeah, I’ll contact Sun Ning myself, keep a close watch on things in Country D, and also ensure the safety of my aunt and others. Let Chu Mufeng handle his own affairs.”
Wen Xin was unaware of the negotiation process between Chu Yunxuan and Luo Qiete, nor did she ask further; she just hoped Chu Mufeng would behave himself.
“Boss, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now. We can talk on the phone if something comes up.”
Hearing Wen Xin’s voice, still groggy from sleep, she wisely ended the call without excessive chatter, fearing she might irk the big boss.
As Chu Yunxuan finished speaking, the call disconnected. Wen Xin casually tossed her phone on the bed, got out of bed, and walked into the bathroom. She had slept enough, felt hungry, and planned to go downstairs to find something to eat.
…
Qian Meng sat on the sofa, his gaze sharp as he looked at Jiang Linyan sitting opposite him, his eyebrows slightly raised.
“What did Miss Jiang invite me here for? You’ve been silent for over ten minutes now. My time might not be precious, but I do have my own matters to attend to, and I don’t want to waste time here with you.”
Having finished his business, Qian Meng was planning to return to his family home. However, on the way, he received a call from Jiang Linyan. She told him she had something of interest to him and wanted to meet and discuss it before handing it over, prompting his appearance at this teahouse.
Seeing Qian Meng’s impatience, Jiang Linyan gave a faint smile, turned around, took a document envelope from her handbag, and placed it in front of Qian Meng.
“I know you’ve been busy with this plot of land recently; I’ve just acquired it. Agree to one condition, and I can give it to you!”
As Jiang Linyan spoke about giving him the land, she unconsciously revealed a victorious smile, aware of how important this plot of land was to Qian Meng and confident in their deal.
Regarding the interests of the Qian family, she didn’t believe Qian Meng would refuse.
Qian Meng glanced at the document envelope Jiang Linyan placed before him. He did not reach out to take it but instead slightly leaned back, lazily reclining in his seat, his eyes revealing a playful smirk.
“What, does Miss Jiang want to win me over?”
Qian Meng, in a relaxed pose, reached into his pocket, pulled out a cigarette pack, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.
“I’m unsure what deal Miss Jiang wants to discuss. I’ll listen first, and if it’s feasible, maybe we can cooperate a bit.”
Jiang Linyan watched Qian Meng’s casual demeanor, feeling an involuntary surge of irritation. She hadn’t found him this annoying before.
Yet, to entice Qian Meng to not join the Mu family’s camp, she suppressed her irritation and spoke to Qian Meng very amicably.
“I simply want to collaborate with Young Master Qian. I heard that you are currently cooperating with Miss Mu of the Mu family. If you transfer that project to me, we could collaborate together with Kunshan Group…”
“Absolutely not necessary!”
As soon as Qian Meng heard Jiang Linyan mention Miss Mu, he knew what Jiang Linyan intended. Initially, spreading the rumor of his cooperation with Miss Mu was meant to suppress Kunshan’s development in Beijing.
