Chapter 741: Chapter 740: Wen Xin: I Just Wanted to Join in the Fun
After Wen Xin tapped the enter key, she lifted her head to look at Mu Dong with a relaxed and comfortable tone, showing no concern whatsoever for the tensions troubling Mu Dong, as if Wen Xin was merely playing around.

Mu Dong numbly nodded, his mind stunned and barely functioning. He knew that whatever Wen Xin said, he simply needed to agree, and there was nothing else for him to worry about.

“Alright, go arrange it. We will set off with them tomorrow!”

After Mu Chengxi finished speaking and Mu Dong had responded, Mu Chengxi ruthlessly ushered him out of the study.

Mu Dong stood outside Mu Chengxi’s study and sighed softly, his sigh laced with helplessness. He really couldn’t understand what Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin were planning.

As Mu Dong came down from upstairs, he saw Mu Bei who had just come out of the kitchen. He walked over, placed his hand on Mu Bei’s shoulder, and looped his arm around Mu Bei’s neck as they walked toward the study on the first floor of his villa.

Upon entering the study, Mu Dong quickly locked the door and then looked at Mu Bei with a deeply furrowed brow.

“What happened when you went to pick up Master Xi and Miss Wen? Why does Miss Wen want to go to the Southern Territory to make a deal with Muxi? Doesn’t Master Xi worry that Miss Wen might be in danger?”

“How would I know? When I went to pick up Miss Wen and Master Xi, Muxi acted like he was crazy, insisting on coming with me and deliberately smoking in the car. I had never imagined that Muxi could be so rebellious.”

“Miss Wen was also acting strangely today. Muxi did so many things against her, and yet she wasn’t angry at all…”

By this point in his explanation, Mu Dong had a general idea of what Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi intended to do. This time, Muxi had truly offended the young lady.

“On the road, take good care of Miss Wen. If Muxi goes crazy, try to stop him as much as you can, always prioritizing Miss Wen’s safety! Muxi sometimes acts without restraint, but he still understands the basic rules.”

Mu Dong truly didn’t trust Muxi’s temper, fearing he might do something unforgivable. He hoped that this time Muxi would know to hold back; otherwise, even if all the brothers joined forces, they might not be able to save Muxi.

“Yes, don’t worry, I will do my utmost to protect Miss Wen. I have some other arrangements to make, so I’ll get busy!”

After speaking, Mu Bei left the study. Mu Dong sat in the study, took a cigarette from his pocket, sighed with some helplessness, and began to worry about the events that would unfold.

Early the next day, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi got up at six o’clock.

While Wen Xin was washing up in the bathroom, Mu Chengxi took a thick jacket from the suitcase and laid it on the bed, worried about the consecutive rainy days in the Southern Territory and that it might be cold enough for Wen Xin to catch a chill.

When Wen Xin came out of the bathroom, she saw the clothes Mu Chengxi had prepared in advance on the bed and her heart softened momentarily. This was the way Mu Chengxi loved her, considering every aspect of her life with great care…

After both were ready, Mu Chengxi led Wen Xin downstairs. Outside, people were already very busy making preparations for departure.

Wen Xin knew that Mu Chengxi had to leave the estate today to take care of some business as well, and she took out a small bottle of medicine from her pocket and placed it in Mu Chengxi’s hand.

“Life-saving medicine, just one pill at a time.”

Mu Chengxi, gazing down at the medicine bottle in his palm, smiled gently, “I’m just going to negotiate a deal, not to risk my life, I won’t need this…”

“I hope it will never be needed, but I feel more at ease knowing you have it,” Wen Xin said, looking at Mu Chengxi. Her usually cold expression softened into a very gentle smile that instantly melted Mu Chengxi’s heart.

“Alright, I accept it. Let’s eat first, and then we will set off after the meal,”

Wen Xin walked toward the dining room, wrapped by Mu Chengxi’s arm. Inside the dining room, Mu Bei, Muxi, and Mu Dong were present. Seeing Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi appear, they respectfully stood up and greeted them very politely.

“Master Xi, Miss Wen.”

“Miss Wen, Master Xi.”

“Master Xi, Wen… Miss Wen.”

Last, Muxi’s tone of addressing Miss Wen was somewhat reluctant. When Wen Xin sat down, she unconsciously looked in Muxi’s direction and spoke in a tone tinged with teasing,

“No worries, if you can’t say it, you can just call me by my name… or ‘that woman’!”

Upon hearing Wen Xin’s words, everyone present except Mu Chengxi was shocked as they stared at her, unsure how she knew that Muxi had previously referred to her in that manner.

“Let’s eat. Once we’re full, we’ll depart,” Mu Chengxi added a sandwich to Wen Xin’s plate without showing any reaction to her earlier comment, as if he hadn’t heard it at all.

Muxi couldn’t fathom Mu Chengxi’s indifference and unconsciously looked toward him, almost expecting Mu Chengxi to lose his temper, but that moment never came.

Mu Xi unconsciously raised his eyebrows at Mu Chengxi’s demeanor, feeling that Mu Chengxi’s affection for Wen Xin was not as deep as it seemed.

After breakfast, Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin exchanged a few words before he left with Mu Dong and their group, without giving Muxi a glance or issuing any reminders or warnings.

After Mu Chengxi had left, Muxi, who saw Wen Xin still leisurely continuing her meal, reminded her in a respectful yet detached tone, “Miss Wen, please hurry up. Time waits for no one. Because of you alone, we might delay everyone’s plans.”

“You go ahead, I’ll be ready in no time.”

Having finished her last bite of the sandwich, Wen Xin stood up and, holding the coat Mu Chengxi had prepared for her, nonchalantly walked towards the exit with her black backpack in her other hand.

As Wen Xin exited the dining room, she saw Mu Bei carrying a large suitcase out, prompting her to unconsciously frown slightly,

“Why are you bringing so much stuff? Isn’t it just a three-day trip?”

“Master Xi asked me to take good care of Miss Wen. I’ve packed everything necessary for the road; we can depart now!”

Proudly patting his suitcase, Mu Bei was pleased with his night’s efforts to ensure Wen Xin’s comfort. He was just concerned about overlooking something.

Outside the mansion’s gate, a fleet of cars was already lined up, with about twenty people standing on either side. Muxi stood in the center of the group, issuing sharp commands to everyone.

As Wen Xin walked up to them, Muxi suddenly stopped and politely began, “Miss Wen, the third car in the middle is yours. Mu Bei will accompany you in the car. We might not stop unless it’s necessary…”

“Well, I’m just there to join in on the fun. I won’t be much trouble!”
