A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 855: Chapter 853: As long as you answer my question, I’ll let him go.
 

Wen Xin looked at Xiao Ci standing in place, her eyebrows rose slightly, and she responded faintly. Casually, she closed the office door behind her, and the sound of it locking echoed.

“Are you surprised by my appearance? Did you never consider that I might come looking for you myself?”

As Wen Xin spoke, she walked toward Wen Yunuo’s desk, casually pulled a chair beside it, sat down, and crossed her legs, assuming the posture of a boss.

“little princess, you…what is this…”

Xiao Ci looked at Wen Xin sitting opposite Wen Yunuo, then glanced back at Wen Yunuo, nailed to the spot, completely puzzled as to why Wen Xin was there.

Listening to Xiao Ci’s question, Wen Xin smiled faintly and raised her eyebrows at him, “What do you think I am here for today? Why don’t you take a guess?”

Although Wen Xin spoke with a smile, her tone still intimidated Xiao Ci. Xiao Ci seldom interacted with Wen Xin, but he was very aware of the reckless things she had done.

“I…I can’t guess, I don’t know where we displeased you, the little princess. If there’s anything we did poorly, please tell us directly.”

As Xiao Ci spoke, his tactful side was fully revealed. He certainly wouldn’t admit to the deeds he had done, as he was unclear how much Wen Xin knew about his actions.

Xiao Ci’s words made Wen Xin’s smile involuntarily deepen. She looked up at him, generously praising Xiao Ci.

“Having you is his good fortune!”

While speaking, Wen Xin shifted her gaze onto Wen Yunuo, her expression inscrutable, “He doesn’t want to guess why I came here, so you tell me, what am I here for?”

As Wen Xin spoke, she looked down at her arms, her lips slightly curved upward, seemingly reminding Wen Yunuo to think about his injury and its connection to him.

Wen Yunuo frowned as he watched Wen Xin adjusting the bandages on her arms, unable to move or speak. He truly didn’t know what Wen Xin had done or what she intended to do.

“little princess, could you please let Young Master Wen go first? In this state, he’s completely unable to communicate with you properly!”

Xiao Ci stood aside, looking at Wen Yunuo’s expression, his voice gentle, with a coaxing tone.

Upon hearing Xiao Ci’s words, Wen Xin slowly raised her head to look at Wen Yunuo, but made no move to free him.

After watching Wen Yunuo for a while, she raised her head to look at Xiao Ci standing beside Wen Yunuo and flashed an evil smile.

“Forget it. I don’t need his answer. I’ll just ask you a few questions. If your answers satisfy me, I will let him go. But if I don’t get what I want, I will ensure he remains like this forever.”

After speaking, Wen Xin shifted her gaze away from Xiao Ci and continued adjusting the bandages on her arms.

Wen Xin herself had a bit of OCD; the disarray of the bandages on her arms was intolerable to her, so she kept adjusting them.

Seeing Wen Xin’s actions, Xiao Ci helplessly furrowed his brow, turned his head to look at Wen Yunuo, and tried to find out what Wen Yunuo thought they should do.

At this moment, Wen Yunuo was completely immobile and unable to speak, like a fish on the chopping board, utterly deprived of any chance to resist.

Once Wen Xin had finished adjusting, she raised her head to look at the two men exchanging glances and smiled gently.

“Have you two finished discussing? If you have, then I can ask.”

“Little princess, I don’t know what exactly you want to do, but I can assure you, although we are in Beijing, it doesn’t mean we are doing anything bad here. I’m not sure if you have some misunderstanding!”

Xiao Ci only thought as long as he kept his mouth shut, he wouldn’t say anything or admit anything. Without evidence, he believed that even if Wen Xin guessed more, it was merely conjecture and couldn’t amount to doing anything.

Seeming to see through Xiao Ci’s thoughts, Wen Xin was not in a hurry at all. She adjusted the direction of her chair to face Wen Yunuo.

“You don’t need to play any tricks with me, just remember, if I am not satisfied with your answers, he might spend his whole life like this, and that’s it.”

Wen Xin lifted her head and looked at Xiao Ci with a chilling gaze; it was the first time Xiao Ci had seen such a look in her eyes. He unconsciously panicked and involuntarily stepped back.

For some reason, Xiao Ci found this version of Wen Xin somewhat terrifying, giving him a sense of dread.

“Did the Old Fox arrange for you to come to Beijing? What is the purpose? The research institute?”

Xiao Ci looked at Wen Xin, hesitated for a moment, and didn’t know how to answer her question. With Wen Xin posing such a serious question straight away, he really didn’t dare to answer rashly. After all, such a response would nearly be like putting his life in Wen Xin’s hands.

“Little princess, I…I dare not talk about such matters, you…maybe change the question?”

How could Xiao Ci reveal the affairs of the upper echelons so openly? He was merely an assistant, following orders. Even though he knew many secrets, he shouldn’t be the one to disclose them.

Seeing Xiao Ci looking somewhat embarrassed, Wen Xin casually chuckled and nodded at him.

“Okay, then I’ll change the question. This injury of mine, was it done by Jiang Linyan at Wen Yunuo’s behest?”

After Wen Xin asked her question, Xiao Ci’s expression relaxed, but he quickly showed a look of shock; he had not anticipated that Wen Xin knew everything.

Wen Xin rested her hand on Wen Yunuo’s desk, tapping the table intermittently as if to drum a message into Xiao Ci’s very soul.

“Little princess…”

“There’s no need to rush to deny it; first, look at Wen Yunuo before you deny anything. His future living standards might just be in your hands.”

Wen Xin’s words stopped all of Xiao Ci’s intended responses, and he glanced at Wen Yunuo, seeking through eye contact what he should do next.

At that moment, Wen Yunuo slowly opened his eyes, feeling a sense of resignation.

Although he hadn’t had much contact with Wen Xin, he was well aware of her character; Wen Xin never said or did anything she wasn’t certain about.

Now, it seemed that she already knew everything he had done; it was just that maybe she did not want to hold him accountable, for now.

Turning his gaze away from Wen Yunuo, Xiao Ci looked at Wen Xin and nodded.

“Your car accident was indeed caused by Jiang Linyan, but…but this matter…it wasn’t Young Master Wen who ordered it. Her hatred towards you is real; Young Master Wen was just a catalyst.”
