Tang Zijun was utterly lost, hearing Wen Xin call him “Uncle” repeatedly. If he could, he would have left the Independent State to pick her up himself.
“Uncle, don’t go to the port. Just wait for me at your warehouse. Don’t get too excited, or you might attract unwanted attention.”
For Mu Chengxi’s safety, Wen Xin had to be extremely cautious. She had never been this careful before. Once she found Mu Chengxi, she would make sure to teach them all a lesson.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you at the warehouse. Keep me updated on your whereabouts. I’ll make the arrangements now.”
Tang Zijun was already a bit excited. Wen Xin was the precious child left behind by his most treasured sister. He had never had the chance to take care of Wen Xin, which was a regret for him.
Now that he had the opportunity to make up for it, he wouldn’t let Wen Xin down.
“Okay, Uncle. See you in the Independent State.”
After hanging up, Wen Xin stood up from the sofa. She checked her backpack while sitting in the office chair, relieved to find all her essential medicines inside.
“Young lady, you actually…” Chu Yunxuan rushed in from outside, her face full of disbelief.
When Yan Qing called her back, saying Wen Xin wanted to take them to the Independent State, she was genuinely shocked. She never imagined this young girl could enter the Independent State.
Seeing Chu Yunxuan’s excitement, Wen Xin placed a finger on her lips, signaling for silence.
“My parents were from the Independent State. The forces behind me are too complex. The less you know, the safer you’ll be.”
“This is all I can explain for now. When things settle down, I’ll explain everything. There will be plenty of opportunities to visit the Independent State in the future, so don’t get too excited.”
Wen Xin placed her electronic devices in another bag. Carrying her backpack and the other bag, she gently patted the stunned Chu Yunxuan on the shoulder.
“Let’s go. Time is tight. If Mu Chengxi was taken by people from the Independent State, he’s really in danger.”
“The people from the Independent State won’t care about Mu Chengxi’s status. Last time Yuan Junye survived because someone was willing to protect him, but Mu Chengxi has no one else. He only has me.”
Mu Chengxi’s people couldn’t enter the Independent State. The only person who could bring Mu Chengxi out was Wen Xin. Although this wasn’t her first time breaking into the Independent State, it was different this time.
Chu Yunxuan followed Wen Xin, listening to her mutterings. Her earlier excitement vanished. She realized Wen Xin was serious this time.
Yan Qing moved quickly. By the time Wen Xin left the villa at the base, Yan Qing and Wales were already in the car, waiting for Chu Yunxuan and Wen Xin.
When Wales saw Wen Xin, his eyes clearly showed admiration. He was stunned by her beauty, having never seen such a beautiful Oriental woman before.
Her features were sharp and delicate, and her beautiful eyes carried a hint of melancholy, giving her a cold and proud demeanor.
Wales lightly elbowed Yan Qing, who was adjusting some equipment next to him, and touched his chin.
“Hey, Boss Yan, who is this chick? She’s stunning! Did Siam bring her back? Is she a new recruit?”
Although Wales’s voice wasn’t loud, everyone in the car heard him clearly.
Wen Xin kept her head down, focused on the heavy black phone in her hands, still trying to track Mu Chengxi’s whereabouts.
Sitting behind Wales, Chu Yunxuan impatiently kicked the seat under Wales, saying, “Do you want to die? Do you know what you’re saying?”
“I’m just making conversation. This girl is really pretty. Little girl, I’m Wales. I’m the strongest in Truth Listener. If you need anything, just tell me. I can protect you around here.”
Wales watched Wen Xin quietly playing with her phone, growing more and more fond of her. His heart raced.
Yan Qing finished adjusting his equipment and turned to Wales, who was practically drooling over Wen Xin. “She knows you’re the strongest in Truth Listener. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here, right, Doll?”
“Doll?”
Wales almost choked on his saliva upon hearing Yan Qing call Wen Xin “Doll.” He couldn’t believe what he had just done—flirting with his own boss!
“Wait… Yan Qing, your joke isn’t funny. If you said she was Doll’s daughter, I’d believe you. But you say she’s Doll? How is that possible?”
Just as Wales struggled to accept Wen Xin as the Doll, his phone buzzed with a message from the internal chat group, sent by the Doll.
“You’re too noisy. If you keep talking, I’ll sew your mouth shut!”
Seeing the message, Wales quickly looked at Wen Xin, then at Chu Yunxuan. Pointing at Wen Xin, he stammered, “No, this can’t be! Everyone says Siam is Doll’s girlfriend. How… how could Doll be a young girl?”
Wales still couldn’t accept that his long-admired Doll was a young girl. He felt his faith crumbling. He had even secretly cursed Doll for being a jerk to Siam.
Now he understood—two women, what status could there be to speak of? It was…
“Are you really… the Doll?” Noticing the stares from the others in the car, Wales asked, hoping to confirm he wasn’t dreaming.
“If you don’t want me to throw you out of the car, shut up. In Independent State, keep your mouth shut. If you cause trouble, I’ll sell you to the nightclubs there as a male servant!”
Wen Xin’s head was pounding from Wales’s noise. If it weren’t for his high combat value, she would have sent him back to avoid trouble.
Hearing Wen Xin’s tone, Wales finally believed she was the Doll. He turned and sat quietly in his seat, not saying a word.
He pondered the severity of flirting with his boss, worried about being expelled from Truth Listener. Leaving the organization meant being brainwashed, and he couldn’t bear that…
Yan Qing glanced at Wales’s frustrated expression and couldn’t help but laugh as he nudged him with his shoulder.
