Chu Yunxuan couldn’t help but give Wen Xin a thumbs up for her cunning plan. Only Wen Xin could pull off such a scheme.

“I’ll arrange for someone to handle this as soon as possible. If Mu Chengxi gets involved, you might need to ask him to be a bit lenient.”

“Don’t worry, he won’t interfere. If he wanted to, he would have just shut down the West Suburb racetrack, not just suspended it. Also, I’ve heard there’s been trouble with Ghost’s Domain recently. Could you look into it and find out what exactly happened?”

Wen Xin chatted casually with Chu Yunxuan, her mood seemingly light as she engaged in more conversation than usual.

Recently, Truth Listener had been dealing with the Shadow Alliance, keeping everyone busy, and there were some things Wen Xin could only ask Chu Yunxuan to investigate.

She was about to go for military training and wouldn’t be able to check updates for a while.

Hearing Wen Xin mention Ghost’s Domain, Chu Yunxuan hesitated slightly while holding her phone; there was nothing outwardly unusual about her.

“Didn’t Mu Chengxi take over Ghost’s Domain matters? Hasn’t he told you what’s been happening lately?”

Chu Yunxuan ventured tentatively, thinking that if Mu Chengxi was unwilling to share, she might need to have a serious talk with him.

“Don’t you know Mu Chengxi by now? He never lets me get involved in dangerous matters. Even if I ask, he always presents only the good news, never the worries. I always feel he’s hiding something about Ghost’s Domain. It’s easier for you to investigate than to ask him.”

After handing over the Ghost’s Domain talisman to Mu Chengxi, Wen Xin noticed that Mu Chengxi’s demeanor would shift whenever Ghost’s Domain was mentioned.

Concerned about him, she decided to have Chu Yunxuan look into it.

“Understood; I’ll let you know once I find something. By the way, the launch of the new product went well. The Yuan family saw Yuan Junye’s project succeed, and now they want a share of the spoils.”

Chu Yunxuan had watched a drama unfold just days earlier; she thought the Geng family was shameless, but now it seemed the Yuan family might be worse.

“That’s the Yuan family’s business; let Yuan Junye deal with it.”

Wen Xin yawned lazily, tired after the day’s events, now wanting to shower and rest.

“Okay, you handle those matters. I’m going to take a shower and sleep. Message me if there’s any news.”

Wen Xin ended the call without waiting for a response, her usual style, and one that Chu Yunxuan had grown accustomed to.

Seeing the call disconnected, Chu Yunxuan pulled up Mu Chengxi’s contact and dialed.

After a few rings, the call was answered. Chu Yunxuan wasn’t known for her patience but waited for Mu Chengxi to speak first.

“What’s up?”

Mu Chengxi, agreeing to take Chu Yunxuan’s call, did so only out of respect for Wen Xin, feeling no need to interact otherwise.

“How long do you plan to keep Ghost’s Domain and the grandma-related issues from Wen Xin? When do you plan to tell her?”

Chu Yunxuan got straight to the point, not expecting Mu Chengxi to beat around the bush.

Her words made Mu Chengxi clench his phone tighter, his brow furrowing and his expression darkening.

“How much do you know about Ghost’s Domain? How did you find out about the grandma issue?”

Mu Chengxi thought he had kept the matters of Ghost’s Domain and the grandma well hidden, but he was surprised to discover leaks.

“I don’t know much about Ghost’s Domain, but I know everything about the grandma issue.”

Chu Yunxuan pulled up a chair, sat down, and lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag before blowing out a smoke ring.

“Before Grandma passed, I saw a stranger injecting her with something in the hospital. When I discovered this, the person jumped out the window and escaped. I wanted to chase, but Grandma stopped me and told me some things.”

Chu Yunxuan casually turned on her phone’s speaker and tossed it on the table, her voice calm.

There was silence on the other end as Mu Chengxi listened, waiting for her to continue.

After another drag of her cigarette, Chu Yunxuan exhaled slowly, her voice slightly hoarse.

“Grandma told me that rescuing Wen Xin was an accident and that the misfortune that befell Tan Xingyue was also unexpected. She truly wanted to protect the orphan of the Wen family.”

“But later, when she discovered Wen Xin’s abilities, she also hoped to use Wen Xin’s talents to ensure Tan Xingyue’s safety throughout her life. She knew that the people from Ghost’s Domain wouldn’t leave her and Tan Xingyue alone.”

“Tan Xingyue had been implanted with a biological toxin since she was young, the same as grandma. It’s not life-threatening unless triggered, but once activated, it causes organ failure, like what happened to grandma.”

“Does Wen Xin have this virus?”

Mu Chengxi’s voice was tense after hearing Chu Yunxuan’s explanation.

If anything were to happen to Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi would turn Ghost’s Domain upside down to find a cure for the toxin.

“No, Grandma explicitly said the toxin was implanted shortly after Tan Xingyue was born, before Wen Xin even went to Ancient Market Town.”

“Why exactly the toxin was implanted, Grandma didn’t clarify, seeming to suggest it was to coerce her into doing something, but she never agreed.”

“Grandma also mentioned that after she took Tan Mingyao away from Ghost’s Domain, she quickly sent him to an orphanage. She told me those people likely don’t know about Tan Mingyao’s true identity as the young master.”

“Later, any harm that came to Tan Mingyao was probably due to other reasons, or someone informed them of his identity.”

“Mu Chengxi, you can choose whether or not to tell Wen Xin about grandma’s issue, but I’m sure Wen Xin knew about the biological toxin. She would take grandma’s blood to the medical labs in Continent M every three months for research, though no progress was made before grandma passed.”

Chu Yunxuan brought up these matters to spare Wen Xin from constant worry.

Now that Ghost’s Domain was under Mu Chengxi’s control, there was little to worry about, and revealing some of the backstory to Wen Xin was feasible.

“Right now, the Ghost’s Domain I hold is just a shell; much of its core secrets were taken by someone after Grandma died. As for who that person is, I still haven’t found out. There’s just too little information available about Ghost’s Domain.”
