Chapter 840: 839: Old Mr. Ou Shipping Couples Online

Having appeased Old Madam Mu’s agitated emotions, Wen Xin respectfully greeted the elders present one by one.

“Old Mr. Ou, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. You look very well, it seems the sanatorium’s environment is indeed excellent.”

“You really scared us there, little girl. After hearing about your incident, we arranged to come and see you at the first opportunity. But seeing you now, we can rest assured. Have they found out who was behind it yet?”

Old Mr. Ou looked at Wen Xin with a loving gaze, his eyes sharp, as if he had already guessed that Wen Xin’s car accident was not a simple traffic incident.

Wen Xin looked at Old Mr. Ou, raised her eyebrows, and gave a gentle smile, “We’re still waiting for the results. Maybe there isn’t that much conspiracy after all.”

Wen Xin did not want to lay bare the conspiracies of Independent State before these people, after all, there were many things she did not wish them to know.

Hearing Wen Xin’s response, everyone more or less guessed that Wen Xin’s incident was not simple. They all merely offered a faint smile and skillfully changed the topic, avoiding further inquiries about the matter.

While Wen Xin was chatting with the elders, Ling Yichen and Ou Jinzhi were already in Mu Chengxi’s arms, drinking tea.

“Master Xi, your project has already entered the testing phase, and there will soon be results. It’s just that I wonder whether the people from Mu Group will regret kicking you out once the test results are out,” Ou Jinzhi said.

Mu Chengxi lit a cigarette, glanced at them with a dispassionate look, and smiled faintly, “Even if they hadn’t kicked me out, I wouldn’t plan to bring this project to Mu Group.”

After speaking, Mu Chengxi lowered his head and chuckled softly. “How is Mu family now? I heard they’ve started dealing with Kunshan Group.”

“Indeed, after Mu Group started collaborating with Kunshan Group, they cut off Gu family’s financial lifeline. But thankfully, you were prepared. The Gu Corporation is still very stable now,” Ling Yichen responded. He had been in frequent contact with Gu Yanzhe recently and was quite clear about the affairs of Gu Corporation.

“Master Xi, I heard that you and Qian Meng almost found Jiang Linyan a few days ago? I also heard some news about Jiang Linyan, someone said she was taken to Independent State… just not sure whether the news is true or false,” Ou Jinzhi, who had been sitting silently on the sofa, suddenly spoke up. He had heard the news from Jiang Desheng but had no way to verify it and didn’t know whether it was a false lead released by Old Jiang.

Ou Jinzhi broke the silence and Mu Chengxi tapped off the ash from his cigarette and turned his head to look at Ou Jinzhi, raising an eyebrow.

“It’s not impossible. The people behind Jiang Linyan are indeed from Independent State. I’m not eager to find Jiang Linyan right now. She will have to come back sooner or later, but there will be time to settle that account,” Mu Chengxi said. Then he pressed his cigarette into the ashtray and narrowed his deep-set eyes slightly, a dangerous gleam flickering within them.

“How is Old Man Jiang doing now? I heard people from Independent State have arrived?”

“Yes, people from Independent State have come and brought two doctors, but the prognosis isn’t optimistic. There are still no signs of him regaining consciousness, so Old Jiang had Jiang Linyan brought back. However, the companies under Jiang family’s control are operating quite well, especially the Jiang family’s military factory.”

Upon hearing Ou Jinzhi mentioning the military factory owned by the Jiang family, Mu Chengxi seemed to have thought of something, nodding thoughtfully.

“Have you had any contact with the people from the Kunshan Group?” After pondering for a while, Mu Chengxi slowly raised his head to look at the two people sitting on the sofa and asked with a gentle tone. The two people being asked were slightly stunned, not understanding the meaning behind Mu Chengxi’s words.

“What kind of contact are you referring to? Being in the same business circle, it’s inevitable to come across people from the Kunshan Group, but we have never seen the real power behind it. The person we’ve seen the most is Jiang Linyan’s fiancé, Xiao Ci.”

While Ling Yichen was speaking to explain, the doorbell suddenly rang. Mu Chengxi nodded, indicating that he understood what Ling Yichen meant.

“I’ll go check who has come again.” The guests at home were rather special, and Mu Chengxi could no longer guess who it might be.

Mu Bei and Auntie Fu had gone out to buy groceries, and there was no one else available to answer the door, so Mu Chengxi had to go himself.

As Mu Chengxi came out of the study, Wen Xin had already walked lightly to the door, glanced at the figure on the display screen, and slightly furrowed her brows, hesitating for a moment.

“Who is it?” Mu Chengxi approached Wen Xin, gently encircling her in his arms and asked softly, wondering who was outside the door.

Wen Xin leaned lazily against Mu Chengxi and pointed with her chin at the direction of the display screen, where Mu Chengxi saw the figure of a man.

“He… why would he come here?”

Wen Xin looked in the direction of the display screen and smiled faintly, “Do you even need to think about it? It must be the Old Fox panicking, wanting to send someone to sue for peace. The only question is whether he’s coming to express concern for me, or to congratulate me on finding my sister.”

At that point, Wen Xin turned her head to glance at the elders in the living room, “Let’s go outside to talk.”

Mu Chengxi looked down at Wen Xin, who was leaning on him, nodded, took a coat from the closet for Wen Xin to put on, and then donned his own coat, holding Wen Xin’s hand as they walked out of the house together.

The several people sitting in the living room watched as Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi left together, exchanged glances, and then burst into hearty laughter.

“Old Madam Mu, you really must be congratulated for finding such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law. Not going to lie, if that brat Mu Chengxi hadn’t made his move so early, I would have introduced Wen Xin to Shenzhi!”

After laughing, Old Mr. Ou recalled the scene of Mu Chengxi chasing Wen Xin in the sanatorium, which he found very amusing.

“Oh, there’s such a story? You were staying in the sanatorium that year, and you mentioned that you fancied a granddaughter-in-law, could it have been Wen Xin? This young lady is so likable, if it were me… I might also have wanted her to be my granddaughter-in-law!”

Old Master Ling immediately perked up upon hearing the gossip, never having expected such a story. Since everyone’s heart favors beautiful things, it was understandable that he would also want Wen Xin as his granddaughter-in-law.

“This is a long story. Back when I was in the sanatorium, I had a sudden episode, and it was Little Wen Xin who saved my life. Later, I found out that she, her grandma, and a young girl named Tan Xingyue were all living in the sanatorium.”

“She was taking care of an ailing old lady and a young girl confined to a wheelchair all by herself. It seemed really tough.”
