Wen Xin didn’t wait for their response and directly carried a black cloth bag as she walked outside.
Watching Wen Xin’s departing figure, Chief Zhou squeezed his hand by his side tightly, then slowly released it.
“I trust Miss Wen, and I am willing to leave with Miss Wen. Those who want to leave should pack up and gather at the square, ready to depart.”
Wen Xin returned to her room and tidied up her belongings, glancing at the huge suitcase that Mu Bei had not managed to take away, left in the corner.
Walking over to the suitcase, Wen Xin suddenly felt curious and crouched down to open the suitcase.
When Wen Xin clearly saw the items inside the suitcase, she let out a resigned chuckle. Mu Bei really was a simple creature; the things he packed were somewhat incomprehensible.
Wen Xin took out a piece of bread and took a bite, finding it quite tasty. She casually grabbed two more pieces and put them in her pocket, thinking they might come in handy along the way.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
At that moment, a gentle knocking came from outside the door. Wen Xin stood up and went to the door. Opening it, she was surprised to see the driver assigned to drive her.
“Is there anything you need?”
“Miss Wen, I am the driver assigned by Master Xi to drive for you, and also to protect you. Master Xi said with Mu Bei away, I should also temporarily take over Mu Bei’s duties. I’ve come to help Miss Wen with her luggage.”
The driver looked at Wen Xin with earnest eyes, his tone purely professional and devoid of any emotion.
Wen Xin nodded at the driver, stepped aside, and allowed the driver to enter her room.
“Please just take the suitcase that Mu Bei brought up to the car; I can handle the rest of my things.”
Wen Xin casually picked up the black cloth bag and slung it over her shoulder, then picked up her own backpack. Seeing the driver already leaving with the suitcase, she immediately followed him out.
Wen Xin sat in the car, glanced at the time, and decided to wait three more minutes. If those people were unwilling to leave together, she would go back alone.
“Miss Wen, wait a minute.” Upon hearing that Wen Xin was already seated in the car, Chief Zhou hurriedly dressed, carried a black suitcase, and ran out of the building.
Wen Xin lowered the car window and looked at Chief Zhou, querying with her eyes what he needed but did not speak.
“Miss Wen, our people are all ready now. Just like when you arrived, your car will be in the middle of the convoy. This is our cargo; I will place it in your car…”
Chief Zhou went around and opened the car door on the other side of Wen Xin’s car, placing a black suitcase on the backseat.
“Miss Wen, please look after this cargo. In case those people insist on inspecting, when it’s time to switch cars, we will directly ram through the checkpoint. The driver will then rush past. Both your safety and the safety of the cargo are very important, and I hope there are no errors.”
Chief Zhou looked seriously at Wen Xin. They seemed to be fully prepared to protect Wen Xin and the cargo at all costs.
“You don’t need to be so nervous; I’ve said that I will take you there, and I can bring you there. Rest assured, nothing and no accidents will happen.”
Wen Xin looked at Chief Zhou with a detached expression. She didn’t say anything more; she didn’t need to explain her decisions to anyone.
Chief Zhou watched Wen Xin’s expression, wanting to say something, but found himself utterly speechless, as Wen Xin gave him an impression of a sovereign, compelling his obedience and leaving no room for rebuke.
Five minutes later, the convoy embarked on their journey. Wen Xin, sitting in her vehicle, started playing a video game. The ride was smooth, and she played the game undisturbed.
When the incident in the Southern Territory occurred, Mu Chengxi knew about it while on the phone with Wen Xin. However, he was unaware of Wen Xin’s plan to break through a checkpoint.
He quickened his composed pace. After he finished the negotiation and stepped out of the conference room, Mu Dong hurried in from outside.
“Master Xi, Mo Xuan just sent a message saying Miss Wen, along with Chief Zhou and the others, are gearing up to storm the checkpoint. I’ve had it investigated, and the checkpoint has been taken over by the geek’s mercenaries, specifically to intercept our convoy and seize the goods from Muxi and Chief Zhou.”
“The vehicle that carried Muxi back to base for treatment was merely given a cursory check. They didn’t find what they were looking for, so they let it through, probably fishing…”
“I’m not sure if Miss Wen will be taken lightly and fall into their trap.”
After Mu Dong spoke, he looked at Mu Chengxi with palpable concern. He knew Mu Chengxi had called for an impromptu negotiation for the sake of going to find Miss Wen. However, Wen Xin had already departed, and even if they set out now, it would be too late.
Upon hearing Mu Dong’s words, Mu Chengxi took out a cigarette case from his pocket, drew one, lit it, and after a long drag, he fell silent for a while…
“Wen Xin never undertakes something unless she is sure of success. The mercenaries’ headquarters might need to get sorted out. They dare accept any job, showing quite the nerve. If they aren’t afraid of death, let’s make the game bigger.”
Having said so, a hint of murderous intent flashed through Mu Chengxi’s eyes. Should anything happen to Wen Xin, he wouldn’t mind making those responsible pay a price they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
As Mu Chengxi calmed his emotions, he reached into his pocket for his phone and dialed Wen Xin’s number.
Wen Xin, who was interrupted in the midst of gaming by Mu Chengxi’s call, suddenly felt irritable. However, she still answered the call, albeit a bit grudgingly.
“Is there something you need?”
Hearing Wen Xin’s irritable tone, Mu Chengxi was slightly taken aback, as it had been a long time since he had heard such impatience in her voice.
“Are you… upset?” Mu Chengxi held the phone, feeling somewhat uneasy, wondering who had managed to displease his beloved.
“No, I was playing a game, and you interrupted me.” Wen Xin’s tone was mild as she answered Mu Chengxi’s question, who hadn’t expected that his emotions would be so sensitive, instantly sensing her displeasure.
Hearing that Wen Xin was upset because of the game, Mu Chengxi chuckled indulgently, “I heard you’ve already left. About that checkpoint…”
“The checkpoint… there’s a solution for that, don’t worry. I’ll return home safely. You don’t need to be concerned, nor question my abilities. To be very honest, those people don’t phase me at all.”
Wen Xin’s confident tone elicited a soft smile from Mu Chengxi, but it did little to alleviate his already tense emotions, in fact, it made him worry more.
He felt that if things were handled in Wen Xin’s way, she was undoubtedly preparing to take a risk. He dared not think about what would happen if there were an accident involving Wen Xin…
“Wen…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll wait for you to come home at the manor. There won’t be any trouble!”
