Mu Chengxi’s words made Chu Yunxuan’s face turn pale, and she instinctively stepped back. Fortunately, Mu Nan supported her, preventing her from falling.
“This gentleman, that’s a rather harsh way to put it, isn’t it? I…” Yu Yan tried to say.
“Stop talking, Yan Yu. He’s not wrong; this is indeed my fault. I shouldn’t have let her go upstairs alone,” Chu Yunxuan steadied herself, thanked Mu Nan, and looked up at Mu Chengxi’s cold, handsome face.
After hesitating, she slowly said. “I can’t explain this to you now. Once Wen Xin wakes up, you’ll understand.”
Chu Yunxuan didn’t know what to say to keep Mu Chengxi from getting angry. She didn’t want him to take his anger out on Wen Xin. It would be better for Wen Xin to explain things herself.
“At 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.”
Mu Chengxi’s anger had reached its peak. He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, and they were still hiding it from him.
“Yes, I’ll go right now,” 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.
“Mu Chengxi, can’t this wait until Wen Xin wakes up to explain? Does it have to be blown up like this? It’s already a big mess, and I don’t want more people to know about this!”
Chu Yunxuan didn’t care about anything else now. Even if Mu Chengxi blamed her, she didn’t want to say a word. She didn’t want to expose too much about Wen Xin that others shouldn’t know.
If Mu Nan went to investigate, it would inevitably expose everything, and that would be too dangerous.
Meeting Chu Yunxuan’s pleading eyes, Mu Chengxi ruffled his hair in frustration and said nothing more before turning towards the hospital room.
Before entering Wen Xin’s hospital room, Mu Chengxi suddenly stopped and spoke coldly, “Mu Nan, go ask the doctor and prepare some food according to the doctor’s advice.”
“Yes, Master Xi, I’ll do it right away,” 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.
“Please let go; I need to ask the doctor what Miss Wen can eat.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Chu Yunxuan hastily released Mu Nan’s hand. Her mind was a bit overwhelmed, and she awkwardly smiled at Mu Nan.
Mu Chengxi’s anger was indeed terrifying. She felt relieved that she had contacted Mu Chengxi after Wen Xin’s accident. Otherwise, hiding it from him, she feared she couldn’t 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. “Xuan sister, is this man really our boss’s man? He’s so terrifying! He even dares to lose his temper at you?”
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 Chengxi’s 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. “The boss’s man is a big shot. You could look up Mu Chengxi’s background. Whether in Beijing or on Continent F, he’s considered a top talent. He has deep-rooted bases in N Port and on Whether in Beijing or on Continent F, he’s considered a top talent. He has deep-rooted bases in N Port and on Zizhou Island.”
“All these are just what he allows others to know. Who knows how many identities he has that he doesn’t want revealed? Compared to our boss, it’s pretty much an even match.”
Chu Yunxuan knew Wen Xin’s identity, so she dared not belittle her own boss nor underestimate Mu Chengxi’s capabilities.
From the first glance at Mu Chengxi’s profile, she knew this man was not as “simple” as the documents suggested.
Yan Yu used a specialized phone to search for Mu Chengxi’s information on the Truth Listener’s intranet. After finding the information, she involuntarily gasped in fear, now even more afraid of that man.
“Don’t be scared. Once the boss wakes up, he won’t be so arrogant. No matter how powerful he is, he’s just an exceptional man with no significant temper in front of the boss.”
Chu Yunxuan’s seductive eyes meaningfully glanced toward the direction of the hospital room. “This might just be a case of ‘like cures like.’”
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 this—he had been too greedy, foolishly hoping that he could use the divine doctor.
Geng Qiu’s 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 didn’t 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 hadn’t managed to extract, and things he wanted that he hadn’t obtained. Now, he truly had nothing left…
Geng Zewei sat despondently on the sofa, filled only with regret. He couldn’t 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, “Arrange a flight back to N Port, lock down the information, don’t let it be known that Aiden is dead.”
“Yes, I’ll take care of it right away.”
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 Chengxi’s bloodshot eyes. She sleepily raised her hand, gently caressing his cheek.
“Why are you still angry? In my dream, you were mad at me. You wouldn’t even answer me. Am I still dreaming? It must be, you are in Continent F, you can’t be here, but… I miss you so much…”
At that moment, Wen Xin’s emotions were complex. Her defenses had instantly crumpled when she realized that Aiden was actually Burke.
