A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 721: 720: They kept it from me, and even you kept it from me too

Chapter 721: Chapter 720: They kept it from me, and even you kept it from me too
Liang Luoyu, upon hearing the words of the dean of the music department, reacted much like Wen Xin, feeling that there was something suspicious about the situation.

“I also think it’s not normal, but Dean Xing said that participants are from four grades, totaling over forty people. It can’t possibly be targeted at Tan Xingyue alone, right?”

“Why don’t we just investigate and find out who it is targeted at? You go back and wait for the news,” Wen Xin said as she hung up Liang Luoyu’s call and turned to dial Chu Yunxuan.

Chu Yunxuan quickly ran over from the next room after receiving Wen Xin’s call. The moment he saw Mu Chengxi sitting on the sofa, he unconsciously paused.

“When… when did you get here?”

“Yesterday afternoon,” Mu Chengxi replied indifferently after glancing briefly at Chu Yunxuan, without giving much of a response.

Already accustomed to Mu Chengxi’s demeanor, Chu Yunxuan didn’t take it to heart and directly went over to Wen Xin, who was blow-drying her hair.

“I thought you were busy in the hospital yesterday…” he said, as he gently pressed on the strawberry mark on Wen Xin’s neck.

“Not bad, sister… seems quite thrilling!”

Wen Xin put down the hairdryer, grabbed Chu Yunxuan’s wrist from her neck, and pulled his hand down.

“Stop it. Go check out what’s going on with the Kunshan Cup piano competition. Tan Xingyue was taken away by Jingda University’s piano competition team, only registered yesterday, and has already gone to Country D today. Something seems odd, it feels pretty abnormal to me.”

While speaking, Wen Xin took a foundation from her backpack and lightly dabbed it over the strawberry mark on her neck, easily covering it.

Observing Wen Xin’s actions, Chu Yunxuan lightly responded and then grabbed the foundation Wen Xin had casually thrown into her backpack, examining it without being able to determine the brand of the makeup.

“I’ll go check it out in a bit. What brand is this foundation from? It seems magical, even better than any concealer I’ve used.”

Chu Yunxuan kept analyzing the foundation in his hands, but just couldn’t decipher the brand of the makeup product.

“It’s specially provided by the Huoluo factory, no brand. If you like it, take it, I’ve got a few more at home,” said Wen Xin.

Wen Xin glanced lazily at Mu Chengxi; he had recently been imprudent, always nibbling at her neck, leaving marks, so she had formulated a batch of plant-based concealer, and it seemed to work quite well.

When Chu Yunxuan heard that the foundation in his hands was specially provided by the Huoluo factory, he unconsciously looked at Wen Xin, his eyes slightly narrowing. He was finding it increasingly difficult to see through Wen Xin’s identity; Huoluo has always been unique, yet they provided specially for Wen Xin.

It could only be said that her boss was really incredible!

As Wen Xin didn’t hear a response from Chu Yunxuan, she looked up in his direction.

“Did you understand what I said? We’re going out to eat, and you need to make sure to investigate the matter thoroughly!”

Wen Xin still didn’t want to expose her relationship with the Di Ting Organization, so she intentionally didn’t bring it up in front of Mu Chengxi, hoping that Chu Yunxuan would understand her words.

“I understand, I understand!” Chu Yunxuan carefully placed Wen Xin’s foundation into her pocket, a special product from the Huoluo factory that couldn’t be considered expensive but was certainly unattainable for her, which made it all the more precious.

“I’ll go handle it right now…”

Having taken Wen Xin’s items, Chu Yunxuan happily went to investigate the matters Wen Xin wanted to know about, and she quickly left Wen Xin’s room.

As she passed by Mu Chengxi, she didn’t forget to greet him, “Mu Chengxi, I’m leaving now, oh… by the way, thank you for the matter with Wen Huai…”

Upon hearing Wen Huai’s name, Mu Chengxi finally looked up at Chu Yunxuan, his beautiful eyes narrowing involuntarily, a hint of danger flashing through them.

After Chu Yunxuan finished speaking, she quickly left, completely unaware that Mu Chengxi was regarding her with a dangerous gaze…

However, Wen Xin was different; she immediately sensed the danger in Mu Chengxi’s eyes. Lazily leaning on the table, she gave a faint smile.

“What, still have the audacity to be angry? It’s one thing for them to hide it from me, but you too… If it weren’t for your recent recovery from a severe illness, I really should consider how to deal with you.”

Wen Xin had initially been unable to attend to Wen Huai because Mu Chengxi was severely injured and infected with a virus. Later, she learned that Mu Chengxi had known about Wen Huai’s incident right away, yet he had kept it from her, just like Wen Huai had…

When Wen Xin called him out, Mu Chengxi softened the annoyance in his eyes and looked at her with a pleasing expression. He stood up, walked over to her, extended his arms, and drew her into his embrace.

“Don’t be angry. When I found out, my first reaction was to tell you, but Wen Huai begged me not to worry you. So, I agreed to help him keep it a secret.”

“Actually, you knew it from the time Chu Yunxuan left… and you were willing to let go and allow him to fly…”

Lowering his head slightly, Mu Chengxi gazed deeply at Wen Xin, waiting for the anger in her eyes to gradually dissipate.

Wen Xin’s shiny eyes met Mu Chengxi’s dark ones, as if being drawn into his deep affection. She lifted her arms, grasped Mu Chengxi’s neck, tiptoed, and gently bit his chin.

“I understand your reasoning, but… you hiding this from me really upset me! Don’t let it happen again. If there is a next time, Mu Chengxi, don’t blame me if I turn against you!”

While Wen Xin’s tone was both teasing and serious, it made Mu Chengxi involuntarily tense up. He lowered his head and gently kissed the corner of her lips.

“Don’t worry. I promise there won’t be a next time!” Mu Chengxi believed that through this lesson, Wen Huai would definitely grow as well.

“I’m hungry, let’s go eat.” Wen Xin didn’t dare to continue tangling with Mu Chengxi any longer, fearing that if they continued, Mu Chengxi might completely lose control, and it would be challenging to manage later, not to mention that she still had to go out and handle a serious matter.

When Mu Chengxi heard Wen Xin say she was hungry, he rested his head on her neck, took a deep breath before letting her go, and then unconsciously furrowed his brow as he held it.

“Have you felt any better since your recent illness? Why are your hands cold again lately?”

“It might be because of the lower temperatures in P City, or perhaps because it’s the autumn and winter season now. My body tends to get cold again, but when I return, I’ll visit the ancient medicine practitioners of the ancient martial arts family. Maybe there will be different results.”
