While Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi were eating, Ou Jinzhi slowly walked in from outside, followed by a woman. This time, she wasn’t holding a child.

“If it weren’t for calling Mu Bei, I wouldn’t have known you two were hiding here eating good food.”

Wen Xin quietly ate, seemingly uninterested in Ou Jinzhi’s arrival.

“It’s so late. Why aren’t you sleeping? What are you doing here?” Mu Chengxi put down his chopsticks, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled.

“I just finished work. The kids from Beijing University are really lively. On the first day at the military training base, they went crazy. I hope they can be just as excited tomorrow.”

Ou Jinzhi unceremoniously took two sets of chopsticks from the kitchen and placed them on the table, motioning for Song Linman to sit down at the dining table. “Don’t be shy. These two can’t finish all this food. You didn’t eat much tonight; have some food too.”

Wen Xin put the grilled meat Mu Chengxi had given her into her mouth, then looked up at Ou Jinzhi. “I heard your military training is pretty intense?”

Ou Jinzhi, who was in the middle of giving Song Linman some grilled meat, raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully. “Why, are you scared? With your ability, you shouldn’t be afraid, right?”

Ou Jinzhi’s casual teasing made Mu Chengxi look up, his gaze landing on Ou Jinzhi with a probing look.

“You know what her abilities are?”

“Uh… just joking…” Realizing he might have said something wrong, Ou Jinzhi quickly looked down, avoiding Mu Chengxi’s gaze.

Mu Chengxi squinted at Ou Jinzhi’s guilty expression and chuckled, deciding not to press further. He had plenty of ways to get the truth out of Ou Jinzhi.

He had always thought Ou Jinzhi’s special respect for Wen Xin was because of him. But now, it seemed there was more to it, something only Ou Jinzhi and Wen Xin knew.

Mu Chengxi could sense they had a secret.

Wen Xin glanced at Ou Jinzhi, who had nearly let her secret slip, and snorted. It seemed the hush money was unnecessary; her identity would be revealed soon enough.

Ever since she met Ou Jinzhi under her “Slightly tipsy” alias, Wen Xin had suspected Mu Chengxi would eventually find out about her identity. It was just a matter of time.

However, she hadn’t expected it to be under these circumstances, which was quite frustrating, and she was not happy.

Seeing Wen Xin’s increasingly sullen expression, Mu Chengxi was even more convinced. He put a piece of meat on her plate.

“If you don’t want to do military training, I can talk to President Lu. The base can still stamp your attendance, and I’ll take you to Continent F for a trip.”

Mu Chengxi hadn’t had the chance to take Wen Xin sightseeing on Continent F when she was recovering there. He figured she’d be busy once her military training ended and have no time to travel with him.

Now seemed like a good opportunity.

“No, I think the training will be fun, and there are people waiting for me at the base. If I don’t join, some might be disappointed.”

As Wen Xin spoke, the other three looked at her, especially Song Linman, whose eyes were complicated.

“Miss Wen, Linyan has a frivolous personality. Please don’t take it to heart. She…”

“What about her? She bullied you since childhood, and you still defend her? You’re also a member of the Jiang family but can only bear the surname Song, while she’s the recognized eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Do you just swallow your anger?”

“Not everything can be resolved by turning the other cheek. Especially when it comes to men, tolerance only gives those with ulterior motives an opportunity.”

“I’m a petty person. I can’t let this go.”

Wen Xin’s words made Song Linman’s hand tremble slightly. Wen Xin was very direct, making her uncomfortable.

“You have Chengxi to support you, so you can be confident. But sometimes, the situation isn’t that straightforward.”

Song Linman sighed helplessly. She wasn’t jealous of Wen Xin having Mu Chengxi’s support but was thinking if her mother had someone to protect her, she wouldn’t have ended up that way.

In her heart, she harbored resentment, but for Ou Jinzhi, she felt she could endure it. With Ou Jinzhi, she didn’t need the Jiang family or the title of the Jiang family’s eldest daughter.

“Before Mu Chengxi, those who provoked me ended up worse.”

Wen Xin’s dark eyes looked seriously at Song Linman. She wasn’t joking. Her previous actions had left her opponents in such dire straits that they’d never forget, even in the underworld.

At that moment, Song Linman saw the confidence in Wen Xin’s eyes. It wasn’t from Mu Chengxi but from her own strength.

Suddenly, Song Linman was curious about Wen Xin’s true identity.

“If my mother had your confidence, she wouldn’t have…”

“It’s alright. It’s not too late now. If anyone bullies you, especially from the Jiang family, tell me. I’ll protect you.”

Wen Xin’s attitude and tone suddenly changed. She patted Song Linman’s shoulder, not joking. When dealing with Jiang Linyan in the future, she would also help Song Linman get her share.

She had a good impression of Song Linman since seeing her at Zhuge Jingming’s clinic; otherwise, she wouldn’t have saved Ou Youyou.

Wen Xin’s words amused Song Linman, but the two men exchanged glances. They could guess Wen Xin wasn’t joking and genuinely intended to take action against Jiang Linyan.

It seemed the military training base would indeed be lively.

Ou Jinzhi regretted letting Jiang Linyan be an instructor at the base. He had no idea what Mu Chengxi’s little ancestor was planning, but she was capable of anything.

Amidst the jokes, they all finished eating.

Ou Jinzhi held Song Linman’s hand and quickly left. He always felt guilty when meeting Mu Chengxi’s gaze and worried that Wen Xin’s wild behavior might corrupt the well-behaved Song Linman.

After sending off Ou Jinzhi and Song Linman, Wen Xin lazily lay on the sofa, rubbing her slightly bloated stomach. She inadvertently met Mu Chengxi’s probing gaze, raised her eyebrows slightly, and smiled.

“What? If you have questions, just ask. No need to probe.”

Knowing she couldn’t hide her identity any longer, Wen Xin decided to let it all out. She would deal with Ou Jinzhi properly, with nothing to lose.
