Chapter 781: Chapter 780: It’s rare to see Wen Xin nervous, Chu Yunxuan feels there’s a story…
 

“So, don’t believe anymore that she is a harmless little girl with no lethal power. If it were really so, how could my grandfather have not been able to control her all these years? She has her own methods and capabilities, so be careful when you face her next time, and don’t go easy on her!”

Xiao Ci looked at Wen Yunuo, thought seriously for a moment, and nodded. The person he once was had indeed been too naive; it seemed his opponent was not just Mu Chengxi…

“Young Master, I know what to do now. I’m going to handle some work first.”

“Yes, go ahead. It was indeed slightly unfair to you to arrange your engagement with Jiang Linyan, but this is all temporary. As soon as I obtain what I want, we can leave this place and return to the Independent State, and then the engagement will be nullified…”

Xiao Ci was Wen Yunuo’s confidant. Even if a sacrifice was needed, Wen Yunuo would not push Xiao Ci out, as cultivating a confidant was no easy task.

…

After eating, Wen Xin’s mood had stabilized a lot. She sat at her desk and video-called Chu Yunxuan, who was curled up on her bed, not looking very well.

“Weren’t you always tough as iron? How could you have a day like today?”

“Hey, can you not mess around? If you have something to say, then say it; otherwise, I’m hanging up. This menstrual pain is literally killing me!”

Chu Yunxuan often claimed she was Superwoman, impervious to anything, yet when her monthly period came, this Superwoman turned into a frail damsel, completely unable to bear the pain.

“The medicine I gave you, did you not take it? Didn’t I tell you to take it before your period?”

Wen Xin looked at the calendar date, calculating about how many days it was until her period. Fortunately, Warm Jade was always with her, and recently, the pain during her period wasn’t as bad as before.

“Little Miss, that medicine ran out a long time ago. You’ve been so busy lately, I didn’t want to bother reminding you. Telling you my medicine was gone, I could only tough it out!”

Chu Yunxuan turned over in bed, feeling utterly miserable, so pained that she hardly had the energy to speak.

“The medicine is gone? Did you take too much, and that’s why it’s all gone?”

Wen Xin calculated the time and felt that Chu Yunxuan’s medicine shouldn’t have run out by now.

In pain, Chu Yunxuan turned over in bed once more, looking up at Wen Xin, “I… gave some to Yun, you know, Yun has the same issue…”

Chu Yunxuan initially wanted to complain to Wen Xin, but she didn’t expect Wen Xin to remember so clearly and even know how much medicine she had.

“I’ll have someone send you the medicine again, just hang on for one more night!”

Wen Xin looked at Chu Yunxuan’s guilty face and smiled helplessly. It was just some medicine; she could have just directly told her it was gone, there was no need for this behavior.

“Or why don’t you come back? It’s rather chaotic in Beijing lately, do you want to join in the fuss?”

As soon as the topic of joining in the fuss came up, Chu Yunxuan’s eyes lit up instantly. She sat up abruptly on the bed, looking at Wen Xin with anticipation, “Are you sure? Weren’t you unwilling to let me visit you, to avoid exposing your connection with the Di Ting Organization? How did you come to think it over and agree to let me come?”

Chu Yunxuan had wanted to visit Wen Xin before but was ruthlessly rejected by Wen Xin, who argued that Beijing was too chaotic and that the Di Ting Organization had too many people there, which would attract attention. This time she hadn’t expected Wen Xin to actually suggest she come.

“Hmm… I feel much more at ease now that you are here. I was worried about your safety before, but upon reflection, my manpower in Beijing is indeed insufficient, so do come over.”

Before Wen Xin could finish her sentence, Chu Yunxuan quickly climbed out of bed, showing no signs of discomfort. Wen Xin squinted at her, even doubting if the person who had seemed to be in pain earlier was really Chu Yunxuan.

“Boss, just wait for me, I’ll be in front of you by tomorrow!” Chu Yunxuan looked at Wen Xin, revitalized, her eyes brimming with excitement and showing no signs of discomfort.

“Good, I’ll wait for you…” Wen Xin leaned back lazily, picked up a milk carton next to her and took a sip, her face carrying a faint smile, looking quite in a good mood.

“Oh, right, there’s something I forgot to tell you. I’ve finished investigating the matter you asked me to look into. I’ll send you the details about Xiao Mi.”

As Chu Yunxuan was halfway through her sentence, she looked up at Wen Xin, not knowing who Xiao Mi really was, or why Wen Xin would use Di Ting Organization’s resources to investigate Xiao Mi’s background.

“Do you have any relationship with her? Her identity seems not so simple; a large part of her information is encrypted, and it was through hacking the system that we got it,” she responded.

When Chu Yunxuan mentioned that Xiao Mi’s identity was not quite regular, Wen Xin’s grip on the milk carton unconsciously tightened.

However, her expression remained nonchalant, not wanting Chu Yunxuan to see anything amiss.

“Hmm, just send me her information, I’ll handle it myself,” she responded.

Wen Xin’s bright eyes stared at the computer screen, somewhat eager to see Xiao Mi’s resume.

Indeed, there were things Wen Xin could investigate on her own, yet she refrained from taking action, not knowing how she would face Xiao Mi’s past once she saw it.

Just as Wen Xin was slightly distracted, an email notification popped up on her computer. At the sound of the alert, Wen Xin gathered her thoughts and clicked to download…

Chu Yunxuan noticed the serious look on Wen Xin’s face, and curiously tilted her head to look at the video of Wen Xin.

“What’s wrong? It seems this girl is somewhat different to you?”

Chu Yunxuan rarely saw diverse expressions on Wen Xin’s face, but at this moment, it was clear that Wen Xin was somewhat nervous.

At Chu Yunxuan’s words, Wen Xin looked towards her phone, her eyebrows furrowing with impatience, “Hurry up and pack up and come over; I still have things to do, I’ll hang up first, and we’ll talk when you get back.”

Wen Xin hung up the phone before Chu Yunxuan could respond, then hugged her computer and moved to the window, sitting down on the bed.

Sitting on the bed, Wen Xin closed her tablet and took a deep breath, pressing one hand on her chest, forcing herself to calm down.

As Mu Chengxi entered from outside, he saw Wen Xin holding her computer, one hand covering her chest. He hurried over to her, looking at her anxiously.

“Don’t scare me, my dear… what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should I take you to the hospital, or should we ask Zhuge Jingming to come and check on you?”

Seeing Mu Chengxi’s worried and somewhat flustered look, Wen Xin smiled softly, lifting her hand to pinch his cheek.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine. Chu Yunxuan sent me some information about Xiao Mi. Do you want to take a look together?”
