Chapter 401 - 401: Chu Yunxuan Asked Mu Chengxi If He Set Her Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Chu Yunxuan arrived in Pochinki, Gu Yanzhe was waiting for her. As soon as she came out of the airport, she got into the car with him and went t directly o Mu Nan’s temporary base in Pochinki.
Exiting the car, Chu Yunxuan was slightly stunned when she saw Mu Nan walking towards her. This man from the auction seemed to know Gu Yanzhe? Could they be related?
Mu Nan glanced at Chu Yunxuan and froze for a moment. She was the only one who dared to bid against him, which showed remarkable courage.
“How is Mu Chengxi? Why didn’t you let him inform Wen Xin? Do you know Wen Xin seems to already know about your plane accident?”
Although Chu Yunxuan didn’t say anything to Wen Xin on the phone, she could clearly sense Wen Xin’s nervousness.
She didn’t dare to ask or say much, fearing that Wen Xin would know too much and might do something impulsive.
“Master Xi is fine. The iniured ones are Lianz Luovu and Mu Dong, but their conditions are not serious.” Gu Yanzhe led Chu Yunxuan and Deluns into a small villa.
In the villa, Mu Chengxi was sitting on the sofa, wearing a black shirt with one button unbuttoned at the collar, casually open.
A bandage wrapped around his wrist, and between his distinct fingers, he held a cigarette, looking somewhat lazy.
“Sit…”
Hearing them come in, Mu Chengxi lifted his head from the tablet, glanced at Chu Yunxuan, and casually stubbed out the cigarette in his hand. He looked cold and heavy, exuding a chilling aura.
Before, Chu Yunxuan thought Wen Xin seemed arrogant and unrestrained, giving off a sense of extreme ruthlessness.
However, looking at Mu Chengxi now, this man in front of her completely redefined her understanding of ruthlessness. This kind of chilling aura was the true meaning of cold-bloodedness and heartlessness.
“Well, Young Master Mu, I think you must contact Wen Xin. Otherwise, she is capable of anything.”
On her way here, Chu Yunxuan had already messaged Yan Qing, asking him to prepare as they might be going into battle.
“Um, before you came, I had already messaged her. I wanted you to come because I want to cooperate with you.”
“Cooperate?”
Mu Chengxi’s words completely confused Chu Yunxuan. She didn’t know what cooperation there could be between them. Most importantly, all the real power she held was on Wen Xin’s side.
“Yes, I know you have a special identity and should be a member of Di Ting, the Di Ting Organisation. I want all the data on the Independent State…
Hearing Mu Chengxi’s purpose for asking her to come, Chu Yunxuan instantly understood that Mu Chengxi had set a trap for her using Wen Xin.
Mu Chengxi had already calculated that based on her relationship with Wen Xin, she would definitely be worried for Wen Xin when Gu Yanzhe contacted her. Hence, her coming over was within his calculations.
“Mu Chengxi, you schemed against me?” Chu Yunxuan was a little angry. She treated him as a friend, but he plotted against her. She was disgusted.
“It’s not really a scheme. Before you came, I could only contact you. You know that Wen Xin’s phone is not something that ordinary people can call.”
“I want to talk to you about cooperation, and I’m serious. Even if you didn’t come, I would have made an offer to Di Ting. As long as you promise to give me the data from Independent State, you can name your conditions.”
Mu Chengxi looked at Chu Yunxuan with cold and indifferent eyes, his deep black eyes sincere and serious. This time, he was really getting ready. The fact that people from Independent State could attack him showed their strength was not to be underestimated.
Since it was a negotiation, Chu Yunxuan reverted to her usual playful and charming nature. After the initial nervousness wore off, she put on a teasing and alluring smile.
“It’s not that I’m unwilling to cooperate with you. You know better than I do what Independent State is like. Even if I were to investigate, I couldn’t find anything about Independent State. So, if you want to seek revenge, then I can only advise you to give up.”
Chu Yunxuan still didn’t know that Mu Chengxi already knew about Wen Xin’s connection to Independent State, so she didn’t reveal that Wen Xin was the one who provided Di Ting with all the information about the Independent Continent.
Also, Chu Yunxuan genuinely didn’t know much about Independent State, so she wasn’t lying.
Mu Chengxi’s deep eyes narrowed slightly. He believed Chu Yunxuan’s words and didn’t continue to press her.
“Alright, thank you for coming today. Consider it a favor owed to you. If you have any future matters, just contact Gu Yanzhe…”
Gu Yanzhe, who was listening to their conversation, almost spat blood when he heard Mu Chengxi’s words. Clearly, it was Master Xi who owed a favor to Chu Yunxuan, so why did it end up being him who had to repay the debt? Wasn’t that a bit too much?
“I do have one more thing.” With Mu Chengxi’s safety confirmed, Chu Yunxuan relaxed. Then, she remembered the incident at the auction that day.
“I met that man with the beard in the courtyard just now. He bought a piece of warm jade at the auction in Pochinki. I want it. If possible, I’m willing to buy it back at the original price.”
That day, Chu Yunxuan didn’t continue bidding, not because she didn’t have the money, but because she didn’t want to maliciously drive up the price or cause trouble. So, as long as Mu Chengxi could make the man sell her the warm jade, she would be willing to let Yan Qing leave him a back door when placing orders with Di Ting in the future.
“Sorry, I can’t give you the warm jade. Wen Xin needs it more for her cold constitution.”
Mu Chengxi trusted Chu Yunxuan’s friendship with Wen Xin, so he didn’t hide the purpose of the warm jade. He believed that Chu Yunxuan would keep this secret.
“Are you saying the warm jade is already with Wen Xin? Then I won’t worry about her suffering in the winter. Alright, alright, I won’t hold this against you this time, seeing how good you are to my little darling. As for Independent State, I’m really unable to help.”
With the warm jade in Wen Xin’s hands, Chu Yunxuan’s wish was fulfilled. Indeed, Mu Chengxi genuinely cared for Wen Xin. This time, she finally affirmed that Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin being together was a good thing.
Seeing that Mu Chengxi was fine, Chu Yunxuan left the small villa with Deluns. She got into the car arranged by Gu Yanzhe and left.
After Chu Yunxuan left, Mu Chengxi lit another cigarette. After taking a puff, he fell silent for a while before speaking slowly, “Prepare the plane, and let’s go back to our country. Let Liang Luoyu and Mu Dong recover from their injuries before going back.”
Mu Chengxi was still worried about Wen Xin. If people from Independent State dared to act against him so openly, he was concerned that Wen Xin might also be in danger. He could ignore everything else, but he couldn’t overlook Wen Xin’s safety.
“Okay, I’ll arrange it right away.”
At that moment, Wen Xin was sitting in front of her computer, studying the automatic positioning navigation system. The map displayed on the computer screen was that of Independent State..
