Chapter 612: The Old Fox Sets a Trap to Lure Wen Xin

“Finding this cufflink was what convinced me you were in the Independent State. Otherwise, I was on the verge of going insane with no news at all, which has never happened before.”

Wen Xin lay on Mu Chengxi’s chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat. She felt an overwhelming urge to cry.

After so many days, her heart finally found some peace. She had a terrible dream last night, one where she couldn’t save Mu Chengxi, and he eventually left her.

Alfredo, having just changed his bandages, stood outside Mu Chengxi’s room, looking through the window at the two of them holding each other tightly on the bed. His heart ached sharply.

It was a scene he had always fantasized about, but the person lying beside her was not him. Perhaps, he thought, he would never have the right to be by her side.

Early in the morning, Chu Yunxuan rushed in. Wen Xin, just waking up, was surprised to see her. She had arranged for her to leave, so why was she back?

“How did you get back?”

“I snuck in. The Independent State is unguarded now. I took advantage of the darkness to come in from the dock. The lab is a biological lab but seems to have been abandoned for a while. Has it been relocated to the Independent State?”

Chu Yunxuan had determined the lab’s purpose after her inspection the previous day.

“The lab had top-tier resources. Its sudden abandonment is puzzling.”

After seeing the equipment, Chu Yunxuan was surprised. The lab was equipped with the best international gear, making its abandonment quite wasteful.

Wen Xin finished treating Mu Chengxi’s wounds and turned to Chu Yunxuan, tilting her head slightly and smiling.

“Money is the least of the Independent State’s concerns. Did you find any data or documents in the lab?”

“Nothing at all!” Chu Yunxuan shook her head regretfully. She had hoped to find some data but found nothing.

“Then it’s not worth wasting time on. If it’s abandoned, it has no use. Did you come back alone? Didn’t Mu Bei come with you?”

Wen Xin looked towards the door, thinking it wouldn’t be hard for Mu Bei to get in if Chu Yunxuan could.

“Mu Bei? No, we didn’t see anyone around the lab. I thought they had already left.”

Chu Yunxuan was puzzled. She had clearly asked them to wait there, but he had left.

Hearing this, Wen Xin’s eyes narrowed, and her temples throbbed with a bad feeling. She rubbed her aching temples and sighed.

“People wouldn’t leave on their own. Did you see anyone at the dock when you came in?”

“There were people, but security was very lax. I even heard them playing cards as I passed by,” Chu Yunxuan replied, her expression becoming alert as she realized someone might have intentionally let her in to send a message to Wen Xin.

Wen Xin confirmed Chu Yunxuan’s suspicion with a raised eyebrow and a smile. “It seems they don’t want to let us go. They want to lure me back to the Wen family.”

“What should we do?” Chu Yunxuan asked nervously, feeling like every move was being watched.

“I’ll call Moore. Mu Chengxi’s wounds are healing well. Let Moore take him back to the Taros family. I’ll visit the Wen family,” Wen Xin decided.

“The Wen family? What’s their involvement?” Mu Chengxi asked, sitting up and grabbing Wen Xin’s wrist, his tone serious.

“The old fox wants to force me back to the Wen family. Whether the lab is his or not, Mu Bei is definitely in his hands. Chu Yunxuan got in because he allowed it to show me that he controls everything in the Independent State,” Wen Xin explained, a wicked smile on her face.

“He still wants to control everything but is too afraid to participate in the Chosen event, fearing he won’t escape heavenly punishment.”

Wen Xin’s dark eyes gleamed with killing intent. The bombs prepared for Ou Jinzhi might need to be used on the Wen family to make the old fox understand she was not someone to be trifled with.

After calling Moore, he quickly arrived with his team. Hearing that Mu Chengxi was being discharged, the Tang family also came.

Elder Tang frowned as he saw Wen Xin removing Mu Chengxi’s bandages. “My dear granddaughter, his body is just starting to recover. Why are you moving him? Why go to the Taros family suddenly? Did something happen?”

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. I borrowed the ancient jade from Moore, and it can’t leave the Taros family. So, we have to take Mu Chengxi back there. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” Wen Xin reassured him, avoiding the truth. She didn’t want Elder Tang to rush to the Wen family and confront the old fox because of her.

Elder Tang’s opposition lessened at the mention of the ancient jade. He squinted slightly, still wanting to stop her.

“My dear, the ancient jade is just a legend. Trust in science and don’t delay his treatment,” he advised.

“Trust me, Grandpa. I’ll handle it. Don’t worry. In a few days, I’ll talk to Alfredo and arrange for you and Grandma to visit Z Country. I’ll spend time with you then,” Wen Xin said, feeling guilty for not visiting her grandmother but determined to make amends once things settled down.

“Alright. I’ve heard Z Country is beautiful and has good weather. When things are stable here, I’ll take your grandma there to visit you,” Elder Tang agreed.

After calming Elder Tang, Wen Xin sent him off and returned to dress Mu Chengxi. Moore arranged for a wheelchair to take Mu Chengxi to the car, personally overseeing his protection with Wales.

As they prepared to leave, Moore looked at Wen Xin, his face tense. “Are you sure you don’t need me to go with you to the Wen family? The old fox is deliberately luring you back.”
