Chapter 750: Chapter 749 The Destruction from the Soul is the Most Terrifying
“What do you mean I made three billion? Boss, do you have no idea how much trouble you’ve caused this past year at the 26th? I don’t care, if you don’t assure me that you’ll keep your hands off business dealings with Mu Chengxi’s people at the 26th from now on, I won’t deal with Mu Chengxi’s business, not even if you’re slightly tipsy!”
At this moment, Berry couldn’t care less about what Wen Xin was calling him; he was determined to get her assurance today, or else… or else… he would just play dirty.
Watching Berry puffing up with anger, the smile on Wen Xin’s face grew deeper, and she finally nodded in submission.
“Alright, there won’t be a next time. From now on, I won’t get involved in anything to do with Mu Chengxi. Actually, I wasn’t targeting you guys when I came over.”
“You didn’t come especially to see me? That’s so heartbreaking. I thought you came because you missed me! Heartbroken, so sad!”
Berry crossed his arms over his chest, looking at Wen Xin with a mournful expression, pretending to be on the verge of crying out in grievance.
“You’re really disgusting acting like that, cut it out! I have something serious to talk to you about. Let them handle the stuff out back first and pass the goods to Muxi, we’re in a hurry to get back.”
As Wen Xin was inside discussing the matters she wanted to delegate to Berry, the responsible parties had already begun moving the goods outside.
Meanwhile, Muxi sat by the dockside, watching Mu Bei who stood nonchalantly to one side, his eyes reflecting a mix of emotions.
“Mu Bei, since when did you know about the relationship between Miss Wen and the 26th?”
Mu Bei turned to look at Muxi upon hearing his inquiry about Wen Xin, pondering seriously for a moment.
“I probably learned about Miss Wen’s relationship with the 26th when she came with Young Master Wen for training. It was because of Miss Wen that the 26th gifted the M organization an invisible drone…”
At Mu Bei’s answer, Muxi was instantly speechless. He felt an immense regret; it seemed regret was the only adjective that could describe his current mood.
After a moment of silence, Muxi looked up at Mu Bei again, “How did you detect someone lying in ambush from afar, and even pinpoint the target within a few hundred meters? Where did you learn these skills?”
By now, Muxi felt deeply wounded by Wen Xin’s blow to his spirit, looking to shift his focus, wanting to forget the heavy hit Wen Xin had dealt him.
“It wasn’t me. How could I possibly be that capable? It was Miss Wen’s judgment. I asked you the same thing at the time, and Miss Wen simply responded to me, ‘Just trust me…’”
Hearing Mu Bei mention that this matter was also related to Wen Xin, Muxi was overcome with a sense of desperation, an urge to just die.
He couldn’t bear to think how incredibly capable Wen Xin was…
Skilled in combat…
Able to knock a burly man out cold in an instant, leaving him lying on the ground…
Able to precisely assess the location of an ambush…
He now desperately wanted to know if there was anything Wen Xin couldn’t do, or to rephrase it, he really wanted to find something Wen Xin was not good at. He wanted to be certain she was human, not divine.
“Mu Bei, Miss Wen… Is there anything Miss Wen can’t do?”
“Probably not,” Mu Bei mused over Muxi’s question, his brows not knitted tightly, ponderously recalling the glorious moments he had known Wen Xin for.
“The first time we met Miss Wen, she was treating Old Madam for an illness. Miss Wen’s medical arts were excellent…”
“Miss Wen’s studies were also very good… and she’s a genius piano composer… and there’s much more, if you ask about weaknesses, well…”
Mu Bei’s voice paused as he looked at Muxi and thought for a long time, but he couldn’t think of a single flaw in Wen Xin.
“The only certain thing about Miss Wen might be that she has a bit of a temper, but she’s got the capital to back it up, being so outstanding. Sometimes, a bad temper is taken as personality, so on the whole, Miss Wen is very impressive!”
In the end, Mu Bei looked at Muxi and made sure to jab him hard in the chest.
“After all, in everyone’s eyes, no one is more suited to stand by Master Xi’s side than Miss Wen, so… you might as well stop struggling…”
When Wen Xin and Berry came out, they overheard Mu Bei boasting about her. She gave Mu Bei an annoyed look, walked over to his side, and spoke in a cool tone, “Alright, we have nothing to do here anymore, let’s go back and rest.”
“Yes, Miss Wen.” Mu Bei obediently followed Miss Wen’s orders—whatever Wen Xin said, Mu Bei listened. She wanted to go back to rest, and Mu Bei naturally hurried to find the car they had come in, ready to take Wen Xin back to rest.
Muxi sat there watching Wen Xin, wanting to say something but not knowing how to start. The blow he had just received left him a little dazed, unable to believe that Wen Xin, whom he had always looked down upon, could have such incredible abilities.
After watching Wen Xin leave, Berry stood firmly beside Muxi, looking at him as if he had been deeply impacted, and gave a faint smile.
“Do you know how old she was when the 26th Institute was first established? She was just fourteen years old… Can you imagine a fourteen-year-old girl leading us in entrepreneurship?”
Thinking back to those days, Berry still felt as if everything that had happened was vividly present before his eyes.
He had seen with his own eyes how Wen Xin immersed herself in the lab for the sake of weapon development.
He had also personally witnessed Wen Xin walking through gunfire for a breakthrough.
He witnessed the journey of the 26th Institute’s weapons from self-destruction to their launch onto the world stage.
When he saluted Wen Xin with respect, he never hesitated, nor did he feel inferior.
In the eyes of everyone at the 26th Institute, Wen Xin was their revered deity, and being able to accompany her on this journey was their greatest fortune in this lifetime.
Berry’s words were like a bomb that completely dumbfounded Muxi. He had indeed heard about slightly tipsy’s position in the field of hot weapons, but he didn’t know that she founded the 26th Institute when she was only fourteen…
Him at fourteen…
Berry lifted his hand to pat Muxi on the shoulder, his voice somewhat begrudging as he said, “Your head of the Mu family has found a treasure! Treat my Master Drunk well in the future, or I’ll make sure to claim back today’s losses with interest!”
After speaking, Berry turned and walked coldly towards the direction of the cruise ship. He could act spoiled and charming in front of Wen Xin, but outside, he was always known for his ruthless and cold image.
Muxi watched Berry’s departing figure, his gaze deepening slightly. How could he dare to provoke Wen Xin now? On this trip over, he had been the one constantly on the receiving end of the abuse, both physically and spiritually…
Sleeping until two in the afternoon, there was a gentle knock on Wen Xin’s door. She sat up in bed, her dark eyes looking towards the door, and spoke with a somewhat hoarse voice, “What’s up?”
