Gu Yanzhe couldn’t care about anything else then; he picked up his phone and left the conference room to find a quiet place to answer the call.
“What’s wrong? Has something happened? Is it Miss Wen?”
As he walked out of the conference room, Gu Yanzhe’s mind raced through many possibilities, his greatest fear being that Chu Yunxuan’s state was related to Wen Xin.
If something had happened to Wen Xin, the seven-party talks Master Xi was hosting could fall apart entirely.
Master Xi had already lost his patience with the negotiations.
“Wen Xin is injured. She was shot, lost a lot of blood, and is unconscious right now. The doctors say her condition is not too bad, but I’m still worried…”
Hearing that Wen Xin was injured made Gu Yanzhe’s temples throb; this situation was serious.
“I’ll go right away to inform his Master Xi. Before he gets here, please take good care of Miss Wen. If needed, I can arrange a plane for Miss Nan.”
Gu Yanzhe knew how important Wen Xin was to Mu Chengxi, and he didn’t dare delay in conveying this news.
“Nan Xu coming over would be too slow. I’ve already arranged for medical personnel from Continent M to come over. You just need to get Mu Chengxi here.”
“Alright, wait for my message.” Gu Yanzhe hung up and rushed back toward the conference room.
Gu Yanzhe pushed open the conference room door to find Mu Chengxi sitting at the head of the table, impatiently flicking his lighter, his expression cold and foreboding like he was on the verge of exploding.
Bracing himself, Gu Yanzhe approached Mu Chengxi and whispered, “Master Xi, could you step outside for a moment? I need to tell you something.”
Mu Chengxi glanced at Gu Yanzhe, stood up, and followed him out of the conference room.
“What happened? What’s going on?”
“Master Xi, there’s been an incident with Miss Wen in N Port. Chu Yunxuan just called to say that Miss Wen is injured and in hospital.”
Initially, Mu Chengxi was disinterested, but upon hearing Gu Yanzhe’s words, the veins on his neck bulged visibly.
“Do you know who did it?”
Mu Chengxi’s tone was frantic but tinged with a furious edge, and Gu Yanzhe could clearly sense that Mu Chengxi was ready to kill.
“I haven’t investigated the specifics yet, Master Xi. I’ll prepare the plane now; do you want to pack some things before we leave?”
Gu Yanzhe knew Mu Chengxi couldn’t wait even a minute, but some essential items were still needed. As he went to prepare the plane, it would give Mu Chengxi a moment to gather his belongings.
“Alright, I’ll grab a few things. Have the helicopter wait for me on the rooftop, and contact Chu Yunxuan for the address.”
Mu Chengxi casually unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt and quickly left the conference room corridor, taking the escalator to his office.
He packed his tablet and laptop in his backpack, added some chocolates he had prepared for Wen Xin, grabbed his coat, and hurriedly left his office.
After receiving a call from Gu Yanzhe, Mu Bei also rushed over, following Mu Chengxi closely, arranging what needed to be done next.
As he was making arrangements for the seven faction leaders, Mu Chengxi suddenly stopped, turned his head towards Mu Dong, and said, “Call Mu Nan, tell him to meet me in N Port. You stay here and handle the aftermath with Gu Yanzhe.”
“Alright, I’ll call Mu Nan immediately to have him contact Miss Chu and wait for you there. Should we inform Mu Bei?”
Mu Dong checked the time; Mu Bei should have already arrived in N Port. He would likely get the information faster.
“No need. Let him handle the situation at the N Port base. See for himself what kind of worthless people he has brought out.”
This time, Mu Chengxi was genuinely angry. He could tolerate him if Wen Xin was safe and sound, but now that she was injured, not directing his anger at Mu Bei was already quite merciful.
“Alright, Master Xi, I’ll contact Mu Nan now.”
As Mu Dong watched Mu Chengxi leave, he then made the call to Mu Nan.
When Mu Chengxi’s helicopter arrived at the hospital, Mu Nan was already waiting on the hospital roof. He quickly approached, took the bag from Mu Chengxi, and followed him downstairs.
“Miss Wen’s condition is now stable. The doctors from Continent M have also arrived. Miss Wen’s physical health is fine; she hasn’t woken up yet, probably due to psychological reasons. Miss Chu hasn’t specified exactly what.”
Mu Nan reported all the details to Mu Chengxi as soon as he saw him. The further explanations would be left to Chu Yunxuan.
Mu Chengxi approached Wen Xin’s hospital room, where Chu Yunxuan quickly stood up from the corridor bench on seeing him.
“You’ve finally arrived. I’m sorry, I failed to protect her properly. Go see her.”
Chu Yunxuan opened the door to Wen Xin’s room and called Yan Yu, who had been watching over Wen Xin, to come out.
Mu Chengxi entered the room, and when he saw the pale woman lying on the bed, his heart overflowed with heartache.
He bent down and gently kissed Wen Xin’s brow.
Perhaps sensing a familiar presence, Wen Xin’s previously tense body gradually relaxed, her clenched hands slowly opened, and her breathing seemed much more stable.
After spending about half an hour in the room, Mu Chengxi left the hospital room, wanting to understand exactly what had happened and why Wen Xin was injured.
“Wasn’t it just supposed to be a simple medical visit? How did she get injured?”
Mu Chengxi’s eyes were cold as he stared at Chu Yunxuan, his voice deliberately low, clearly struggling to contain his anger.
Mu Chengxi did not check Wen Xin’s wounds; he knew what kind of person she was. If the injury wasn’t serious, she wouldn’t be lying here.
Chu Yunxuan dared not meet Mu Chengxi’s eyes, knowing that Wen Xin had kept this matter a secret from him, and she wasn’t sure if she could speak openly.
“At a time like this, you still want to keep secrets? Chu Yunxuan, I know this might hurt, but I’ve always been reluctant to have Wen Xin hang out with you. Wherever you appear, it’s guaranteed to be dangerous for her.”
“She always complained about me for saying this, and I’ve tried to change my views about you, but now, how do you expect me to feel? Are you still planning to keep secrets?”
