“Wen Xin, you…” Zhao Yuzheng didn’t understand Wen Xin’s actions. He used to think that Wen Xin liked him. Otherwise, Geng Qiu wouldn’t have tried so hard to chase her out of the Geng family.

But now, it seemed like that was not the case. Wen Xin did not have any hostility towards Yan Yan. Who could tell him what was going on?

“I have something to do. I’ll be leaving first. Have a good date!”

Wen Xin waved at Yan Yan. When she passed Yan Yan, she said in a voice only Yan could hear, “You’re the type that Grandma Zhao likes. You have a better chance than Geng Qiu.’

After saying that, Wen Xin casually walked to the taxi by the roadside.

Watching as Wen Xin got into the car, Yan Yan’s lips curled into a smile. She was thinking about what Wen Xin had said to her, but she did not expect this girl to see through her thoughts with a glance.

“What did she say to you?” Zhao Yuzheng noticed that Wen Xin and Yan Yan were whispering to each other. He was very curious about what Wen Xin could say to her. One had to know that Wen Xin’s personality had always been cold, and almost nobody took the initiative to approach her.

“What’s wrong? You’re so concerned about her. Do you like her?” Yan Yan narrowed her eyes at him. She always felt that Zhao Yuzheng was more nervous when he saw Wen Xin than when he saw Geng Qiu.

If Zhao Yuzheng liked Wen Xin, she could understand. After all, Wen Xin had a stunning face and a sexy figure. No man could reject her.

“How could I like her? Don’t just look at her frail and skinny. She’s very strong. She kicked me until I was hospitalized. I didn’t realize that she was so powerful. She looks pitiful every time, but when she’s actually fierce…”

“Then do you like me?”

Before Zhao Yuzheng could finish, Yan Yan stood on her tiptoes and kissed his thin lips. She looked at him with bright eyes, shocking Zhao Yuzheng that he could not speak.

“It’s okay. You don’t have to say it. I know you’re engaged, but I still want to work hard. I think I’m more suitable for you than her. To her, you’re just something she can compete for. She doesn’t even care about you when you’re sick and hospitalized. It’s me who stays by your side day and night. Zhao Yuzheng, don’t you understand my ulterior motives for you?”

After Yan Yan heard Wen Xin’s words, she wanted to fight for herself. Perhaps her hard work would allow Zhao Yuzheng to see her feelings.

“Yan Yan, I…” Zhao Yuzheng was shocked by Yan Yan’s sudden confession. He had never dared to have any improper thoughts about Yan Yan, but after that window paper was pierced, he actually felt that the girl in front of him was very beautiful.

“Never mind, I’m hungry. Let’s go eat first!” Yan Yan didn’t really expect a response from Zhao Yuzheng; she just needed to acknowledge to herself that her heart was in turmoil.

Wen Xin took a taxi to the hospital. In Tan Xingyue’s ward, Liang Luoyu was the only one playing Go with Tan Xingyue. The two of them were so serious that they did not notice Wen Xin at first.

Wen Xin held the door handle and was about to push the door open when a breeze suddenly blew in, carrying the familiar smell of mint mixed with a faint smell of alcohol and smoke.

Wen turned her head to look at the man walking towards her. She very consciously let go of the door handle and turned towards the man.

Mu Chengxi stretched out his long arm and wrapped his arm around Wen Xin’s slender waist. He pulled Wen Xin into his embrace and lowered his head to kiss Wen Xin’s red lips as tender as rose petals.

Mu Chengxi let go of Wen Xin after he had a taste of her. He pressed his forehead against Wen Xin’s. His hoarse voice was full of temptation. “I miss you!”

Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi’s slightly intoxicated eyes. She was sure that Mu Chengxi had drunk quite a lot today. She gently blew at him.

“The smell of alcohol on you is so bad. I’ll go and tell Xingyue. We’ll go home soon. ”

“No, I want to go home now. Liang Luoyu and the nurse are here. They can take good care of Tan Xingyue, but I need you!”

As Mu Chengxi spoke, he buried his head in Wen Xin’s neck and gently nibbled on her fair collarbone. In the end, he even went overboard and licked her, causing Wen Xin to tremble involuntarily.

“Don’t mess around, I… Let’s go back!” Wen Xin grabbed Mu Chengxi’s clothes by the side of his waist, trying to distance them. She could not withstand Mu Chengxi’s teasing.

Wen Xin’s nervousness was met with Mu Chengxi’s chuckle. Mu Chengxi stood straight and took Wen Xin’s heavy backpack off her shoulder. He took the car keys from his pocket and placed them in her hand. Then, he held Wen Xin’s hand and walked out of the hospital together.

Sitting in the car, Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi, who had calmed down. At this moment, her brain had regained the ability to think.

“Did you go drinking with Ling Yichen today? Aren’t you discussing business? Why did you drink so much?” Wen Xin started the car and drove away from the hospital as she turned to ask Mu Chengxi.

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s side profile as he drove thoughtfully. He answered truthfully about the reason for drinking. “Ling Yichen brought a few people from the capital over. We drank a little more together. We didn’t drink too much, but we were indeed a little drunk.”

Hearing Mu Chengxi admit to being drunk, Wen Xin glanced at him sideways. She didn’t believe his nonsense. Getting drunk was just an excuse to take advantage, a little trick he thought she couldn’t see through. She was merely willing to go along with him.

After returning to Yuelu Gardens, Wen Xin took out a hangover pill from her backpack and stuffed it into Mu Chengxi’s mouth. Then she turned around and walked into the bedroom. She took her pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Wen Xin’s figure disappeared from the living room. Mu Chengxi swallowed the sweet pill Wen Xin had stuffed into his mouth. He drank some water and took it with a faint smile.

She had clearly seen through his little tricks, but she was still willing to indulge him. This was probably love.

He was sure that his little ancestor had him in her heart.

Mu Chengxi unbuttoned his shirt collar and sighed softly. He took out a small box of square-shaped items from his pocket. He had bought it on impulse.

Just now, he suddenly thought of Wen Xin’s age. The little girl was still a little young, so he could wait a little longer.

Mu Chengxi leaned back on the sofa and spread his arms. He let out a long sigh. Indeed, his girlfriend was too young. He was the only one who felt wronged.

After calming down on the sofa, he stood up and walked into the guest bedroom for a cold shower.

Wen Xin came out of the bathroom and did not see Mu Chengxi in the bedroom. She was surprised that Mu Chengxi did not chase after her this time. She took out her laptop and logged into her account on the black net. She hadn’t paid attention to the black net in the past few days. She wanted to know if the person looking for the Shadow Alliance had been found.

A dozen messages popped up as soon as she logged onto the website. Wen Xin swiped her mouse and clicked on them. One of them caught her attention. “Do you know the person who sells that medicine? You can chat privately…”
