Chapter 774: Chapter 773: Wen Xin’s Attitude Towards Xiao Mi Is So Strange, It’s Suspicious
When Qian Meng heard Mu Chengxi’s laughter, he somewhat incredulously moved the phone away from his ear, wondering if he had dialed the wrong number.
“Little princess… causing trouble? What kind of trouble?”
Once Qian Meng confirmed that it was indeed Mu Chengxi on the other end of the line, he grew even more puzzled by what Mu Chengxi had said. There was a schadenfreude tone that didn’t quite sit right.
“You’ll know when you get here. I have to go now. I’ve got other things to handle.” Seeing that the person waiting for him nearby seemed a bit impatient, Mu Chengxi hurriedly hung up.
Mu Chengxi, gazing in Wen Xin’s direction, quickly walked towards her, and as he reached her, he extended his hand and pulled Wen Xin into his embrace.
“Why didn’t you go inside to wait for me?”
“It’s fine; I was just waiting here for a while. Who were you talking to?” Wen Xin turned around in Mu Chengxi’s arms and straightened the collar of his shirt.
“Qian Meng. He called to ask when you plan to meet with those people from the ancient martial arts family. They have been pressuring him to ask you to come back.”
“The day after tomorrow, perhaps. I still need to go back to the university tomorrow, but I can make time the day after tomorrow,” Wen Xin said, taking Mu Chengxi’s hand and walking towards the villa.
Upon entering the villa’s hall, Wen Xin saw a strange scene: Wen Huai and Zhao Yuyao were sitting on the floor, while Xiao Mi sat on the sofa with somewhat unruly movements.
Watching Xiao Mi, Mu Chengxi squinted his eyes and leaned close to Wen Xin, asking in a gentle tone.
“Does your family have another daughter who went missing? I think that Xiao Mi sort of looks like you.”
Wen Xin turned her head to glance at Mu Chengxi, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, but she did not speak.
At that moment, the butler came out of the kitchen, excitedly carrying a tray of snacks, his face beaming with joy, seemingly in a very good mood today.
As soon as he set the snacks on the table, he saw the two people standing by the main door and immediately went over to greet them.
“Miss, Mr. Mu!”
“Hmm!” Wen Xin responded faintly, lifting her leg to walk further into the living room, sitting down opposite Xiao Mi.
“It seems you’re getting along well with them?” Wen Xin said to Xiao Mi in a tone gentler than anyone present had ever heard from her.
Wen Huai and Zhao Yuyao both raised their heads to look at Wen Xin. They knew Wen Xin’s temperament; she only showed her tender side to Tan Xingyue.
However, at this moment, Wen Xin seemed even more gentle towards Xiao Mi than she was towards Tan Xingyue.
This made them feel utterly incredulous.
“Yeah, they are very nice to me, teaching me how to play games. This game is really fun and quite different from the games I used to play.”
Hearing Wen Xin show concern, Xiao Mi lifted her head from her phone, looked at Wen Xin, and smiled softly, her eyes filled with happiness.
“That’s good. Continue playing; I’m going upstairs!”
Wen Xin, observing the harmony between Xiao Mi and Wen Huai, felt a unique sensation in her heart. If Xiao Mi’s identity was truly as she suspected, it would indeed be wonderful.
Wen Xin stood up to go upstairs, and after chatting briefly with the butler, Mu Chengxi followed her up.
The next morning, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi woke up early and sat in the dining room waiting for the other three to come downstairs for breakfast.
After arranging breakfast for Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, the butler looked at Wen Xin with a face full of questions. He tried to speak several times but didn’t know where to begin.
Wen Xin casually picked up a piece of scallion pancake and bit into it before she finally looked up at the butler.
“Xiao Mi will be living here with Wen Huai, and I will ask them later whether they want to board at school. If they don’t want to, you can arrange for a driver to take them daily,” she said.
“If they decide to board, I will prepare their daily necessities. Don’t worry about these little things.”
As she spoke, Wen Xin bit into the scallion pancake again and chewed slowly; after swallowing, she leisurely began to speak.
“I know what you want to ask, but I haven’t figured out the truth of the matter yet. I’ll inform you as soon as there are any results,” she said.
The butler, looking at Wen Xin, was somewhat shocked. He hadn’t expected that she would guess his thoughts before he even spoke, and Wen Xin’s stature in his heart involuntarily rose.
As Wen Xin’s voice fell, three people came downstairs together. Wen Xin saw that the trio hadn’t rested well. Her dark, shiny eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression cooled.
“If you can’t handle staying up, go to sleep earlier. Now, everyone run ten laps around the villa before coming in to eat,” she ordered.
The trio was jolted awake by Wen Xin’s crisp voice. They thought they had woken up quite early and had not expected that Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi were already waiting for them in the dining room.
“Aren’t you going yet? How much longer must I wait?”
Wen Xin’s gaze was icy as she stared at the three people frozen on the stairs. Her tone was rather harsh, frightening them into immediately running outside.
When Xiao Mi reached the doorway, she suddenly realized something was amiss. She could understand Wen Huai fearing his sister, but why was she afraid of Wen Xin? Could it be because Wen Xin was Mu Chengxi’s girlfriend?
Though she didn’t understand what she was afraid of, she obediently followed the other two outside.
Ten minutes later, the trio hurriedly ran back inside, coming to a stop in front of Wen Xin.
“We’re alert now…”
“If you’re alert, go wash up. If you don’t need to, sit down and eat,” she instructed.
The three of them, seeing Wen Xin’s indifferent expression, dared not say more. They quickly went upstairs to wash, then came back down to eat.
In less than twenty minutes, they were all seated in their cars.
Mu Chengxi and Zhao Yuyao left in one car, while Wen Xin took a Wen family car.
Sitting in the car, Wen Xin glanced at Xiao Mi, who was sitting beside her. Xiao Mi seemed somewhat restrained.
“Haven’t you attended school before?”
“I had been to medical school at the Welfare Institute for a few days before the war broke out. I was forced to go to the battlefield to serve as a doctor, where I then met Mr. Muxi,” said Xiao Mi head low, looking at the ID card in her hands, feeling an indescribable sensation. She still didn’t understand why Wen Xin was so kind to her.
The atmosphere inside the car was eerily quiet. Wen Huai turned around from the passenger seat to look at Wen Xin, “Sis, do you think it’s appropriate to send Xiao Mi directly to Jingda University’s medical school?”
Wen Xin glanced at Xiao Mi, then raised her head to look at Wen Huai. Her tone was very firm, “I believe she can handle it.”
Afterwards, Wen Xin lowered her head to look at the test report on her phone, a satisfied smile playing across her lips.
