Chapter 730: 729
Wen Xin leaned in Mu Chengxi’s embrace for a while before gently pushing him away. She looked up at him and said, “I’m alright. Things will get solved eventually, but now is not the time!”
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s delicate little face, her long, thick eyelashes, and her big, twinkling eyes, and smiled gently.
“Yes, everything will return to peace eventually. Things will get better!”
Mu Chengxi’s voice was soft as he reassured Wen Xin, lowering his head to gently kiss her red lips and gently patting her waist twice.
“Get up and freshen up, then come downstairs to have something to eat.”
“Okay, go call Liang Luoyu and tell him to look for Tan Xingyue…”
Actually, Wen Xin could have arranged for someone else to protect Tan Xingyue, but Liang Luoyu was someone Xingyue could trust. Therefore, no one was more suitable than Liang Luoyu.
Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin enter the bathroom to freshen up. He took out his phone from the pocket of the clothes on the ground, charged it, then picked up Wen Xin’s phone and dialed Liang Luoyu’s number.
At that moment, Liang Luoyu was still in the dean’s office of Capital University Music Department, waiting for Dean Xing’s news, when his phone suddenly rang. Seeing it was a call from Wen Xin, he immediately answered.
“Hello, Wen Xin, do you have any news?”
“It’s me…” Mu Chengxi listened to Liang Luoyu’s anxious voice, responding softly.
“Master Xi? You’re with Wen Xin? You’re calling me…” Liang Luoyu’s tone had a hint of probing as he was worried Mu Chengxi would send him to Country F. Now that Tan Xingyue’s whereabouts were unknown, he was truly concerned and had no intention of going to Country F.
“Wen Xin wants you to go to Country D to find Tan Xingyue. All you need to do is protect Tan Xingyue. If anything fishy happens, bring Tan Xingyue back to the country immediately. Don’t bother with anything else.”
Hearing Mu Chengxi’s words, Liang Luoyu realized there seemed to be something not quite right about the situation.
“Master Xi, is there really danger with this piano competition? If there’s danger, just don’t let Tan Xingyue participate, there’s no need to wait until something happens to leave!”
When it came to Tan Xingyue’s affairs, Liang Luoyu found it difficult to think rationally. Hearing there might be danger, his first instinct was simply not to let Xingyue participate at all, rather than waiting for trouble to arise before leaving.
Mu Chengxi, listening to Liang Luoyu’s excited words, for a moment found himself somewhat unable to refute. He sat on the bed, letting out a helpless chuckle.
“You’re not wrong. If you can persuade her to give up the competition and come back to the country with you, then do so straight away, and there’s no need to worry about anything else.”
“Young Master Liang, we’ve got contact, we’ve contacted Capital University’s delegation. They said that there was an issue with the signal towers in Country D, which is why the signals have been blocked all this time. They’ve told us that they’ve been treated very well in Country D these past few days and there’s no need for us to worry!”
“Young Master Liang, you can now call Student Tan to confirm. The teacher who’s been leading the team has been assuring us that all the students are fine, with no issues at all!”
Liang Luoyu put his phone in his clothes pocket, briefly acknowledging Dean Xing’s words before stepping out of the dean’s office.
He quickly took out his phone from his pocket, and seeing the call that hadn’t been disconnected, he paused for a moment. Then he put the phone back to his ear and said in a faint voice, “Master Xi.”
“It’s me, Wen Xin. You should know Tan Xingyue’s personality. No one can stop her from doing what she wants. Discuss with her, and if she can come back, have her come back. If she’s unwilling to return, just take good care of her—that’s enough.”
After Wen Xin had finished washing up, she took the cellphone from Mu Chengxi’s hands, turned on the speaker, and heard what the principal of the Capital University Music Department had said. Since everyone was there, there shouldn’t be any great danger, so she let Tan Xingyue have her fun.
With her aunt there, she couldn’t forcibly bring Tan Xingyue back.
Liang Luoyu could understand everything Wen Xin said. He casually acknowledged her with a faint, “Okay, then I’ll go find out Tan Xingyue’s location and look for her. Don’t worry, I will make sure to protect her.”
“Mm, I’ll leave her in your care, then. Bring her back to me safely.” Wen Xin couldn’t deal with the situation personally, but she trusted Liang Luoyu. She felt sure that with Liang Luoyu’s feelings for Tan Xingyue, he would be able to bring her back safely.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely bring Tan Xingyue back safely.”
After hanging up with Wen Xin, Liang Luoyu began to call Tan Xingyue. Sure enough, it didn’t take long after the call went out for Tan Xingyue to answer.
“Liang Luoyu, why are you calling me?” Tan Xingyue’s voice sounded a bit chaotic, but given the laughter and chatter in the background, she seemed to be safe.
“Me? I’m going to Country D soon to handle some things, and I thought I could check on you while I’m there. Send me an address, and I’ll bring you some things.”
Liang Luoyu originally wanted to relay Wen Xin’s words to her, but he instantly thought about how timid Tan Xingyue could be and worried that his own words might scare her, so he changed the way he spoke, saying he was going there for business and would check on her in passing.
“Really? You’re coming to see me? That’s great! I clearly didn’t bring enough clothes, could you bring me some warm clothes over?”
Hearing that Liang Luoyu was coming over, Tan Xingyue couldn’t contain her excitement. She had just been considering whether to go out and buy clothes. She wasn’t very familiar with the area and didn’t want to trouble others to accompany her.
Now, hearing that Liang Luoyu was coming felt like a much-needed gift in the midst of hardship.
“Okay, then I’ll bring some warm clothes for you. Send me your address, and I should be able to get there by tomorrow.”
Liang Luoyu told himself not to get too excited. Now, he could be sure that Tan Xingyue was safe and there was no danger.
After hanging up with Tan Xingyue, she sent Liang Luoyu her location and also a photo from a banquet. She seemed quite excited.
Once he had confirmed Tan Xingyue’s safety, Liang Luoyu forwarded her address and photo to Wen Xin, but he didn’t get any response from her. He then went to pack Tan Xingyue’s luggage.
While eating breakfast, Wen Xin’s phone, which was beside her, vibrated. She picked it up, looked at it briefly, and then forwarded the location to Yan Qing.
Yan Qing understood Wen Xin’s intention right away upon receiving the message. He immediately started making arrangements to protect Tan Xingyue. He knew how his boss valued Tan Xingyue’s safety, even more than her own. They dared not take it lightly.
After breakfast, Wen Xin leaned on the table with one hand supporting her chin, looking at Mu Chengxi with slightly raised eyebrows.
“How long do you plan to stay here? Or do you want to wait and leave with me?”
