Chapter 727: 726: You’re Too Saucy, I Can’t Outdo You

Wen Xin leaned lazily on Mu Chengxi’s shoulder with half-closed eyes, a lollipop dangling from her mouth, her pose somewhat nonchalant.

“What are you going to buy? I’m getting sleepy here, hasn’t your item come up yet?”

“It will come up soon!” Mu Chengxi, holding Wen Xin’s hand, felt that her hand was a little cold, so he picked up a coat from beside him and draped it over her.

“Hmm, then let’s wait a little longer.” Wen Xin turned the lollipop in her mouth to a different angle, then sat up and began playing games on her phone.

About fifteen minutes later, Mu Zhong hurried in through the side door and sat down next to Mu Chengxi.

“Master Xi, the owner of that piece of land suddenly backed out and is demanding a penalty fee from the auction house, refusing to proceed with the auction!”

Hearing Mu Zhong speak, Wen Xin looked up from her game, glanced at him, but quickly and composedly diverted her gaze, indicating she was not interested in the matter.

Mu Chengxi hadn’t expected such a last-minute change in plans at today’s auction and nonchalantly arched an eyebrow.

“Free trade it is, if they don’t want to sell, then we respect their wishes and can head back.”

Mu Chengxi had come to the auction today specifically for that land. Since the owner was no longer willing to sell, there was no reason for him to stay any longer, as he had no interest in the other auction items.

Mu Zhong couldn’t read Mu Chengxi’s expression and had no idea whether he was upset or not. He just felt that Master Xi’s thoughts were becoming more and more difficult to guess.

As Wen Xin finished a round of her game, she lifted her head and looked at Mu Chengxi, who was gazing tenderly at her; their eyes met in that instant.

“Finished with your game? Shall we go back?”

“Did you get what you wanted?” Wen Xin hadn’t been paying close attention when Mu Zhong spoke to Mu Chengxi and was completely unaware of the seller’s change of heart.

“No, the seller suddenly doesn’t want to auction it, so there’s nothing to buy now. Let’s go out, shall we? I’ll take you up for some fun?”

Mu Chengxi knew that Wen Xin’s mood had been affected by some people on the first floor and she hadn’t enjoyed herself. He now wanted to take her upstairs for some more fun before heading back.

“Not interested, let’s just go back if you’ve got nothing else to do…” As Wen Xin spoke, she looked towards Mu Zhong who sat beside Mu Chengxi, looking like a downtrodden little wife, wondering what Mu Zhong was thinking at the moment.

“Hey, Mu Zhong, do you have a car? Arrange one for me. It’s not very convenient to hail a taxi in P City.”

Wen Xin’s voice was soft, but Mu Zhong heard it perfectly clear. He immediately stood up, “I’ll arrange it right now. However, Miss Wen and Master Xi, where are you two staying? Do you need me to tidy up the little villa…”

“No need, the hotel is quite convenient. I want a car that’s low-key, not eye-catching; something too glaring can cause unnecessary trouble.”

Wen Xin figured she might be staying in P City for a while and thought having a car would be more convenient. Moreover, with Mu Zhong’s cars surely equipped with a tracking system, he could help her out in case of any trouble on the way.

Once she issued her command, Mu Zhong went to make arrangements. Wen Xin stood up from her seat and handed the coat back to Mu Chengxi.

Mu Chengxi took the coat that Wen Xin handed over, put it on, and casually adjusted it before holding Wen Xin’s hand and leaving the venue.

After Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi left, a few people sitting in a corner looked in the direction they had departed, a dangerous glimmer flashing through their eyes.

This time, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi didn’t exit through the same small door they had entered, but went through a corridor and into an extremely luxurious hall from which they emerged.

Wen Xin turned around to look back at the bustling entrance, then retracted her gaze towards Mu Chengxi.

“This luxurious entrance compared to that shabby little door we came in through really is quite different…”

Amused by Wen Xin’s teasing, Mu Chengxi couldn’t help but chuckle, “It seems my little ancestor is still not familiar with P City. Otherwise, how could you know all about the tasty steakhouse but not the main entrance of this underground auction?”

Wen Xin rolled her eyes at Mu Chengxi’s playful mockery and suddenly thought of something, “After the incident with you and Mu Nan, you deliberately ran to P City to contact Chu Yunxuan, didn’t you?”

“It wasn’t exactly on purpose, but P City was indeed the best choice. The idea to contact Chu Yunxuan was Mu Nan’s,” Mu Chengxi said.

Mentioning Mu Nan, Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin with a gossip-hungry expression, “I heard before that Chu Yunxuan slept with Mu Nan when they were at Ghost’s Domain. Do you know about this?”

Although Mu Chengxi had quite a bit of contact with Chu Yunxuan, he was never particularly interested in her affairs and had never inquired about her.

This time he had only heard about it from Mu Bei, saying that Mu Nan had been tainted and was slept with by that missy beside Wen Xin.

“I wasn’t aware of this, but I can ask Chu Yunxuan when we get back!” Thinking of Chu Yunxuan finally getting a taste of Mu Nan, someone she’d had her sights on for a long time, the corners of Wen Xin’s mouth curled up unconsciously. Wasn’t this a dream come true for Chu Yunxuan?

Seeing Wen Xin’s self-satisfied smile, Mu Chengxi stretched out his arm to encircle her in his embrace and leaned in close to her ear, his voice tender as he inquired.

“Why are you smiling so happily? When you had your first time, you didn’t smile like this. Could it be that the experience I gave you wasn’t good enough?”

Mu Chengxi’s blatantly flirtatious words successfully snapped Wen Xin back to reality. She lightly elbowed Mu Chengxi in the chest to create some distance between them, then lifted her head to look at him…

“You’re too flirty, I can’t outdo you!”

Just at that moment, Mu Zhong pulled up in a car in front of Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi. Wen Xin, within Mu Chengxi’s embrace, slipped away as easily as a slippery eel.

Watching Wen Xin’s movements, Mu Chengxi simply smiled indulgently and followed her down the stairs at his own pace, not in a hurry, confident there would be plenty of opportunities to prove he could satisfy her.

Mu Zhong handed the car keys to Wen Xin and proudly introduced the car to her, seemingly unaware he had done anything wrong.

Wen Xin gladly accepted the car keys from Mu Zhong. Though this Bugatti Veyron was somewhat lavish, in P City, money and status were synonymous, so there was really no issue.

“Then I’ll take the car for now and return it to you when I leave P City.” As Wen Xin spoke, she glanced once more at the luxurious club, feeling that Mu Zhong’s assets probably wouldn’t miss a car like this.
