A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 862: Chapter 860: Vulnerabilities Are Not Something You Should Have
 

“Master Xi and Mo Xuan had gone to meet someone together, he was concerned about Miss Wen having troubles at the old mansion, so he sent me back in case Miss Wen couldn’t find anyone useful at home.”

While saying this, Mu Bei placed a piece of cake he had brought back in front of Wen Xin, “Miss Wen, this is something Master Xi asked me to bring back for you, he said he might come back later tonight and told you to go to bed early.”

Wen Xin glanced indifferently at the cake Mu Bei brought back, but she wasn’t hungry now and couldn’t eat the cake.

“Please put the cake in the fridge for me, I will eat it tomorrow, I’m not hungry now, I’m going upstairs first.”

Wen Xin knew that Mu Chengxi had been dealing with the Jiang family’s matters recently, and understood that it was normal for him to be busy, she isn’t particularly needy and was used to him not being home.

Wen Xin returned to her room and went straight into the bathroom. After taking a shower, when she came out, she saw her mobile phone flashing continuously.

She casually threw the towel she was using to dry her hair onto the bed and walked over to the cupboard, picked up the phone from the table, glanced at the caller ID, hesitated for a while, then answered the call.

“Is there something urgent?”

“Young master, we have news of Miss Tan, she is currently at a noble hospital in Country D, but there are many people guarding around, looking like they are from the Shadow Alliance.”

Hearing over the phone that there was news about Tan Xingyue, Wen Xin seemed to regain her spirit, and a huge weight finally settled in her heart.

However, hearing the latter part of the message, Wen Xin’s nerves tensed up, “Say that again, you said those people are from the Shadow Alliance?”

“Yes, those people are indeed from the Shadow Alliance, I saw Leck of the Shadow Alliance in the crowd, young master, our manpower is insufficient right now, we’re concerned about alerting them, so we did not make a move.”

The man’s voice was somewhat deep, with a hint of difficulty, he was completely uncertain if Wen Xin would allow him to act, especially since Wen Xin had already played her trump card for Tan Xingyue.

“She’s in the hospital? Have you found out why she was admitted? Also, is there any news about someone named Liang Luoyu?”

Wen Xin’s questions silenced the person on the other end of the phone, they had stumbled upon Tan Xingyue’s whereabouts by accident, it wasn’t deliberately located.

“This… we haven’t found out yet, young master, regarding Miss Tan’s situation… what should we do? We can’t blend in with the hospital staff…”

The man on the phone gave a helpless sigh, he was truly willing but unable, having too many people involved could raise a lot of issues.

In response to the man’s troubled tone, Wen Xin smiled faintly and did not say much more, knowing that using her own people could have its limitations.

But… being able to locate Tan Xingyue was indeed good news.

“Wait for my instructions; continue searching for Liang Luoyu’s whereabouts, keep an eye on Tan Xingyue’s situation for me, we can refrain from acting, but I need to know why she has been admitted to the hospital,”

“Yes, young master, I understand, I will investigate Miss Tan’s situation as soon as possible and try my best to locate Liang Luoyu. I will let you know immediately if there are any updates.”

Upon hearing that Wen Xin did not want them to act, the man quickly felt relieved and immediately complied with her request without any hesitation.

Uninterested in continuing the communication, Wen Xin hung up on the man’s call abruptly, pulled a chair over, sat down, and after a moment of thought, picked up her cell phone and located Wen Yunuo’s WeChat in her contacts.

Upon opening Wen Yunuo’s WeChat, Wen Xin hesitated briefly before dialing Wen Yunuo’s voice call…

As soon as the phone had rung once, Wen Yunuo answered, his tone somewhat cold, “Are you calling about Tan Xingyue?”

“Yes, for Tan Xingyue. Didn’t you say you could help me get Tan Xingyue and Liang Luoyu out? Whatever your conditions are, you can state them now, don’t wait for me to regret it…”

Wen Xin spoke directly. Having heard that it was the people from the Shadow Alliance who had taken Tan Xingyue and the others away, compromising with Wen Yunuo was all she could do now.

Collaborating with Wen Yunuo was the most direct and effective method now.

“Wen Xin, do you know why Tan Xingyue disappeared? It’s because everyone knows Tan Xingyue is your weakness—a truly powerful person shouldn’t have a weakness…”

Wen Yunuo didn’t discuss the cooperation with Wen Xin but instead became annoyed by her compromise. He had hoped to see an invincible Wen Xin, not someone who would compromise for a friend.

Upon hearing Wen Yunuo’s words, Wen Xin suddenly fell silent. She had always been striving to be invulnerable, but there were people she just couldn’t ignore, like Tan Xingyue, who was her responsibility for a lifetime.

Wen Xin held her phone, sighed deeply, and spoke resignedly with her eyes closed.

“She indeed is my weakness, and perhaps that will never change in my lifetime. Just tell me your demands. Just getting her out is enough for me.”

Wen Xin didn’t want to show too much emotion to Wen Yunuo. Although they were in a cooperation relationship, Wen Yunuo couldn’t understand her thoughts. People like him could forsake everything for a goal, but Wen Xin was different; she did this just so she could live well in the future.

“Huh, this is the first I’ve known the Wen family to have such a sentimental side.”

Wen Yunuo scoffed coldly; having grown up within the Wen family, he had long seen through the Wen family’s cold reality and never found anything praiseworthy about having a weakness.

“I’ll figure out a way to get Tan Xingyue out. My people have located Tan Xingyue, but it will take a bit more time before I can arrange for my person to get inside. Once my person is there, I can guarantee Tan Xingyue’s safety.”

“Wen Xin, I kindly remind you not to expose your weaknesses too clearly. If the Old Fox finds out, they’re all in danger. You will regret it!”

After saying this, without waiting for Wen Xin to respond, Wen Yunuo abruptly hung up the phone on her. He didn’t know why he was angry; all he knew was that he had become very irritated upon hearing Wen Xin tell him she was willing to compromise for Tan Xingyue.

“Young Master, are you okay?”

Xiao Ci looked at a cold Wen Yunuo, clearly aware that Wen Yunuo was angry, yet he didn’t understand what was upsetting him.

Wasn’t Wen Xin’s willingness to show weakness supposed to be a good thing for him?

“I’m fine, you can leave work now.”

Wen Yunuo lifted his head to look at Xiao Ci, uncertain how to explain his inexplicable feelings. He chose to avoid it altogether, suggesting Xiao Ci leave so he could calm down by himself.
