Chapter 482: Bias Leads to Blindness

His first thought was that Master Xi and Miss Wen had argued.

“Master Xi…” Mu Bei stood outside Mu Chengxi’s study, speaking softly, truly worried he might get dragged into this.

“Bring Fernando here quickly. I want to see him before morning,” Mu Chengxi commanded in a low, cold tone that left Mu Bei puzzled. He didn’t understand why Fernando needed to be apprehended but didn’t dare ask further questions. He acknowledged the order and swiftly left the study.

After Mu Bei departed, Mu Chengxi rubbed his temples, which had started to ache. It was fortunate that Wen Xin was alright. If something had happened to her, he might have flown straight to N Port and dealt with Fernando personally for his duplicity.

The next morning, Fernando was brought to Continent F.

When Mu Bei saw Fernando, his first reaction was that Fernando looked disheveled. However, he had no time to feel sorry for him. He approached Fernando, lowering his voice to ask, “What did you do wrong? Did you make Master Xi angry?”

“I lost Miss Wen.”

Fernando’s hopeless gaze met Mu Bei’s, unable to even begin pleading for himself, aware that disaster was upon him.

Hearing Fernando’s confession, Mu Bei’s hands trembled, and the cup he held accidentally fell to the floor, shattering instantly.

“What did you say? Who did you lose? What happened to Miss Wen?”

Mu Bei couldn’t believe his ears and now understood why Mu Chengxi was so furious. This was a catastrophe far beyond ordinary blunders.

“Miss Wen is missing. When we went to pick her up, she was with another person. The two women were drooling over my men, and I felt a bit disgusted.”

Fernando tried to justify himself, at least to share some of the blame, but Mu Bei scoffed coldly, having no sympathy for him now, seeing a real problem in his attitude.

“You say Miss Wen has a bad temper, that she has issues; we can accept that. But to say she was ogling you guys is too much. Do you think you are better-looking than Master Xi?”

Mu Bei’s demeanor suddenly turned icy. He no longer wanted to hear Fernando’s excuses. Today’s incident had gone too far. They had offended Miss Wen and lost her.

If something goes wrong, not just Fernando’s head will roll; Mu Bei will also be implicated. This was a task given to him by Master Xi.

“I… I didn’t neglect them. I arranged for them to stay at the hotel and left people to protect them…”

Fernando felt wronged, wanting to defend himself. Was it his fault just because they were two women? He had made arrangements, so why blame him?

“Is this how you treat your Mistress?” Mu Chengxi walked down from upstairs, his voice icy as he questioned.

Hearing the word ‘Mistress,’ Fernando looked up in surprise, confused by Mu Chengxi’s words. Was Miss Wen not just some girlfriend picked up by Master Xi? Was she the future Mistress?

“Master Xi, I…”

“What about it? I asked you to look after her and you feel burdened? You might neglect her, but I didn’t expect you to betray me. To act faithfully on the surface but betray secretly. Mu Bei, take him away…”

Mu Chengxi walked over to the sofa and lazily sat down, lowering his gaze to his phone, ignoring Fernando’s continued attempts to defend himself.

“Master Xi, I can’t leave yet. Miss Wen and Miss Chu haven’t been found. I’ll go to the base and accept punishment once I find them,” Fernando pleaded.

Upon hearing Mu Chengxi accuse him of deceit, Fernando realized what he had done wrong—he had indeed betrayed Mu Chengxi’s trust.

“There’s no need. Tell your people they can stop searching; they’ve all gone back. Mu Bei, take him away…”

Mu Chengxi didn’t want to waste any more time as he had other matters to attend to today. Once he had sorted out the current trouble, he would settle accounts with them properly.

Mu Bei, dragging Fernando out of the villa and on the way to the enforcement hall, sighed helplessly.

“I thought I was giving you a chance, but it turns out you’ve dug your own grave. If only you knew how formidable Miss Wen is. You’ll only regret this later.”

Mu Bei looked at Fernando with disappointment. Fernando was someone he had personally promoted, and now he found himself having to personally deliver him to the enforcement hall.

“Brother Bei, I’m sorry…”

Fernando’s apology was not so much a change in attitude towards Wen Xin as it was a regret for failing Mu Bei and worrying about getting him involved.

“Just accept your punishment at the enforcement hall.”

Mu Chengxi patted Fernando on the shoulder and left him at the door of the enforcement hall, watching as he walked inside.

Mu Bei returned to the villa and was surprised to see Gu Yanzhe and Mu Dong getting out of a car. It seemed he had already anticipated his fate; he was getting dragged into this mess.

Mu Dong approached Mu Bei, giving him a meaningful look that carried a mix of pity and regret, as if feeling sorry for him.

“What are you looking at me like that for? Planning to send me to the guillotine?”

Mu Bei was uncomfortable with their looks. He admitted he had indeed chosen the wrong person and got implicated, but his intentions towards Miss Wen were still highly respectful.

“I warned you that kid Fernando had a rebellious streak, but you didn’t believe me. You’ll see how serious this matter is when you go to N Port. Just a reminder, bring more people with you; going alone is not safe.”

Mu Dong gently patted Mu Bei on the shoulder, giving him a friendly reminder before turning to walk into the villa.

The three of them entered the villa together. Mu Chengxi was in the dining room having breakfast and nodded at them, “Come have breakfast, and then we’ll have a meeting.”

Gu Yanzhe walked ahead and sat down to the left of Mu Chengxi, taking the cutlery passed by the butler and taking a bite of bread. His tone was gentle and warm as he spoke.

“Master Xi, Liang Luoyu will be able to come tomorrow, and Tan Xingyue’s assistant will be delayed by a day due to some matters; he needs to stay in Beijing with Tan Xingyue for a day.”

“Okay, he told me. Let’s have breakfast first, then we’ll arrange the meeting details.”

Mu Chengxi suddenly looked up at Mu Bei, who was eating breakfast, and raised an eyebrow, “You’re going to N Port today to straighten things out at the manor.”

“Understood, Master Xi. And what about Fernando? How do you plan to deal with him?”

“He… wait until you get back. You handle it. He’s your man; you deal with it.” Mu Chengxi gave Mu Bei a cryptic smile, leaving Mu Bei feeling a chill run through him.
