A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce Chapter 637 – Peaceful Times Do Not Apply to Everyone

Chapter 637: Chapter 636: Peaceful Times Do Not Apply to Everyone
Listening to Ou Jinzhi’s smug tone, Mu Chengxi didn’t shatter his illusions.

“Alright then, I wish you an early grip on Tianlang, and remember what you just said about not being one of Mu Chengxi’s people. If you encounter something you can’t handle, don’t bother me anymore. I don’t have the time to entertain you.”

Mu Chengxi didn’t wait for Ou Jinzhi to say anything and hung up his phone directly, starting to process the emails on his tablet. There were too many piled up, making it somewhat troublesome.

When Wen Xin returned to the old house, it was already past one in the morning. She guessed that Mu Chengxi probably hadn’t gone to bed yet, but the pitch darkness of the living room shattered her fantasy.

“Why are you coming back so late?”

Just then, the door to the study opened, and a ray of light spilled out from within, casting onto Mu Chengxi and making him look even more attractive.

Wen Xin casually took off her coat, walked over to Mu Chengxi, bent down, took his face in her hands, and gently kissed his thin lips.

“They were rather happy drinking, and I didn’t feel it was right to say I wanted to leave, so I just waited for everyone to disperse before coming back,” Wen Xin said while pushing Mu Chengxi into the study.

“Have you finished dealing with your things? Can we go back to the bedroom to sleep now? I’m so tired!” Wen Xin yawned lazily and stretched, rubbing her sore eyes.

“Yeah, let’s go back to the bedroom to rest,” Mu Chengxi said, maneuvering his own wheelchair with ease, shutting down his computer, packing up his tablet, and then going back to the bedroom with Wen Xin.

In the bedroom, Mu Chengxi lay in bed waiting for Wen Xin to shower, and he couldn’t help swallowing hard when he saw her silhouette in the bathroom.

Twenty minutes later, Wen Xin, clad in pajamas, came out of the bathroom. As soon as she clambered onto the bed and lay down, Mu Chengxi reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his embrace.

Wen Xin lay in Mu Chengxi’s arms, finding a comfortable position, holding him, and spoke in a gentle tone, “I’m so tired, let’s sleep.”

Watching Wen Xin snuggle up in his arms like a kitten, Mu Chengxi couldn’t deny the itch in his heart, but he still resisted the impulse inside him. He gave her a gentle kiss on the corner of her lips and softly said, “Good night.”

Compared to the peaceful times shared by Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, everyone outside was in a state of panic.

Ever since Wen Xin threw a bomb at the Wen family, the Independent State had become even more chaotic, with everyone on edge, fearing that the next bomb would drop onto their own courtyard at any second.

Tang Family

After lunch, Old Master Tang lay in the pavilion in the courtyard, chatting idly with Old Madam Tang, who was holding an album and reminiscing about the past.

“Old Tang, when do you think Xin girl will come back to see me? She clearly said she would come back to see me this time, but this girl didn’t keep her promise and stealthily ran away again. Who knows when we will see her next time,” Old Madam Tang murmured as her fingers gently caressed the photo of the family of four that included Wen Xin in the album, lamenting that not long after the photo was taken, the Wen family encountered a catastrophe…

Old Master Tang looked at Old Madam Tang, her face etched with worry, as he sat up from the reclining chair and gently took her hand that rested on the photo album.

“Look at the current situation in the Independent State, do you think the day of her return is far off? Some things have to be faced eventually, they can’t be avoided.”

“Besides, that Xin girl has already agreed with me that once the situation in the Independent State stabilizes, she will take us to Beijing, away from the turmoil here, and we will be able to enjoy our twilight years!”

Old Master Tang didn’t know when such a wish could be fulfilled, but he believed that Wen Xin would surely be able to handle these matters.

Moreover, the man by Wen Xin’s side was no ordinary person, which filled him with anticipation for the future.

“I hope so, and there’s something else I forgot to tell you. Early today, the butler brought an invitation. It’s from the Head of Meng Family, inviting us to attend his grand birthday celebration. It’s quite laughable, considering that old codger from the Meng Clan has long since stepped down as family head. Suddenly throwing a birthday party, who knows what he’s up to!”

As Old Madam Tang spoke about this matter, she unconsciously showed a look of disgust, her thoughts naturally turning to her deeply scheming and sinister daughter.

Seeing Old Madam Tang’s expression, Old Master Tang gave a resigned smile, “It’s been so many years, she has never revealed her true identity, and we’ve long severed ties with her. It’s already unimportant!”

“How can it be unimportant? Though she wasn’t born to me, I raised her. How could I have imagined that I would raise such a venomous daughter? If I hadn’t discovered it early, or if Ya Qing wasn’t smart enough, otherwise…”

“Let it be, there’s no use talking about it now. In the end, we still failed to protect Ya Qing, leaving Xin girl and Huai’er to grow up without their parents…”

Old Madam Tang hadn’t been this sentimental in a long while, but with Wen Xin’s recent return to the Independent State, it was inevitable that memories of the past would resurface…

“Alright, what’s done is done. Now, Xin girl is doing well, Huai’er is doing well, too. There’s nothing to be melancholic about. As for the affairs of the Meng Clan, let them handle it themselves. Our son has always been somewhat accommodating towards her.”

“After all, they grew up together. Even if they can’t acknowledge each other, there’s still some affection. Let them manage their own issues. We’re old now; it’s not our place to get involved with the affairs of the younger generation.”

Old Master Tang has been using such words to console himself. As he aged, he had become more philosophical about life. Now, all he wished for was the Tang family to be in good stead, and for Wen Xin and Wen Huai to be well. He didn’t need to worry too much about other matters.

“You old fool seem to take it in stride. I just worry about her harboring ill intentions towards Wen Xin. Her ambition is too great, and there are some things we can’t afford not to guard against!”

“For Wen Xin, the Tang family is the only one she can rely on now!”

The thing Old Madam Tang worried about most was Wen Xin. All her persistence was just for Wen Xin, so she wouldn’t have to fight alone.

“How could it only be the Tang family? You forgot, her greatest support is the Taros family. Now, the ancient jade of the Taros family has returned, and their power is gradually recovering. When Wen Xin returns that day, she won’t be alone.”

Old Master Tang looked at Old Madam Tang with a tender smile. He had great confidence in Wen Xin, that Xin girl who had always been extraordinary since she was young, would certainly be able to deal with the subsequent issues.
