Chapter 851: 849: Teaming Up with a Slightly Tipsy Partner for Business Negotiations

Wen Xin’s bright eyes looked at Mu Chengxi and wanted him to analyze. Given what he knew about the Old Fox, if the Old Fox intended to make a move against Tan Xingyue, he wouldn’t have waited until today.

Mu Chengxi gently pinched Wen Xin’s cheek and raised his eyebrows at her, “Otherwise, should I go there myself?”

“You going there won’t be of any use. I’ll go see Wen Yunuo tomorrow and see how he plans to explain this situation to me.”

As she spoke, Wen Xin rose from Mu Chengxi’s lap, raised her eyebrows at him, “I’ll handle tomorrow’s matters myself; you just focus on your own things. If it really was him who took Tan Xingyue away, I’ll make sure he obediently brings her back to me.”

Wen Xin got up from the sofa and left without looking back, heading toward Mu Chengxi’s study.

Mu Chengxi, sitting on the sofa, watched Wen Xin’s retreating figure, smiling indulgently. He took out his phone from his pocket, dialed Mu Dong’s number, and notified Mu Dong to get ready and coordinate with Mu Nan in the search for Liang Luoyu’s whereabouts.

Wen Xin sat in the study, logged onto the dark web using Mu Chengxi’s computer. She was surprised to find that Mu Chengxi’s account was logged in automatically, and her pupils involuntarily trembled when she saw his account name.

This… Mu Chengxi’s identity was becoming increasingly interesting.

Since Mu Chengxi’s account was already logged in, Wen Xin didn’t switch accounts. Instead, she directly used Mu Chengxi’s account to post a thread recruiting detectives from Country D, offering a bounty for finding Liang Luoyu and Tan Xingyue’s whereabouts.

While writing the reward amount, Wen Xin’s hand hesitated for a moment… but it was only for a moment, then she generously wrote down a sum of two billion.

The moment the message was posted, it exploded on the dark web and immediately topped the trending searches.

Watching the heat of the post from in front of the computer, Wen Xin smiled faintly, pleased with the effect.

Wen Xin knew that such a post might not find Liang Luoyu and Tan Xingyue, but as long as those people paid attention to the dark web, they would understand what kind of organization they had provoked and would at least not dare to act rashly against them.

As the post’s popularity soared, Wen Xin didn’t hesitate to click close the page. What she wanted was results, not people’s admiration for the boss.

As Mu Chengxi came in from outside, he saw Wen Xin with a profound expression and walked over to her, supporting himself with one hand on the desk, enclosing her between him and the desk, and gently kissed her cheek.

“What did you do? You look much more relaxed now.”

Wen Xin slightly moved backward, looked up at Mu Chengxi, and teased him, “I used your dark web account to issue a two-billion bounty; now the post is trending. It should soon make some people restless.”

Having said that, Wen Xin gave Mu Chengxi a triumphant smile, clearly not wanting to play games with those people; if she intended to, their methods might not be very usable.

Hearing that Wen Xin had logged into his dark web account, Mu Chengxi smiled indulgently, showing no much expression as he pulled a chair over and sat next to her.

“Slightly tipsy, how about we join forces to do a business?” At this moment, Mu Chengxi looked very serious, an earnest expression that somewhat surprised Wen Xin.

Hearing Mu Chengxi address her that way for the first time, Wen Xin instantly straightened up, but soon she relaxed back into her lazy demeanor, leaning casually in the office chair, reverting to the boss-like attitude she used with strangers.

“What, you want to collaborate with Facility 26?”

Watching Wen Xin’s actions, Mu Chengxi smiled indulgently, finding her somewhat adorable in that moment.

“Yes, exactly, I want to collaborate with Facility 26. I can obtain all the necessary approvals; I just need Facility 26 to provide some outdated weapons. Hand them over to me, and I’ll cut off the Jiang family’s military factory business.”

Listening to Wen Xin’s perfect scheme, Mu Chengxi couldn’t help but smile lightly. She pinched Mu Chengxi’s chin with her fingers, bringing her stunning face close to his, her beautiful eyes locking with his deep ones.

“Master Xi, the beads of your abacus have flown off and are now bouncing on my face. Do you think that because of our relationship, I wouldn’t refuse you?”

Wen Xin’s cool yet coquettish expression caught Mu Chengxi’s eye, and he almost couldn’t resist pulling her into his embrace.

He gently grasped Wen Xin’s wrist, speaking very seriously, “The Jiang family’s current status isn’t just because of their connections with Independent State but also because they control a military factory. The only one who can stand against the Jiang family is your Facility 26.”

“As long as you’re willing, you can set your own price. I promise not to bargain with you.”

The greatest sincerity Mu Chengxi could offer was to not haggle with Facility 26. As long as Facility 26 named a price, he would agree to it without question.

Wen Xin placed her hand on Mu Chengxi’s chin, wrapped her hand around his, and leaned in to gently kiss the corner of his lips. She genuinely liked this man and his ways.

“Okay, considering you’ve flaunted your charms for me, I’ll make this deal. Whatever you need, just tell Barry directly. I’ll also tell him to keep the prices within a reasonable range. After all, we’re all on the same side, no need to go overboard.”

Wen Xin chuckled unconsciously as she spoke; given her relationship with Mu Chengxi, taking his money seemed a bit excessive. But knowing Barry’s temperament, if he couldn’t make a profit, he would endlessly nag about it.

She figured she was just paying for some peace of mind. At worst, she could gift Mu Chengxi a security system for his estate in F State.

Thinking this, Wen Xin unconsciously furrowed her brow, her mind inadvertently wandering to Yan Qing. If Yan Qing found out about this, it would probably lead to another troublesome issue.

Reflecting on her treatment at the hands of her two subordinates, Wen Xin sighed softly, feeling like she was perhaps the most unsuccessful boss there was.

Mu Chengxi observed the myriad expressions crossing Wen Xin’s face and unwittingly furrowed his brow, thinking his unreasonable request had troubled her.

“You don’t have to feel pressured, you…”

When Mu Chengxi began to speak, Wen Xin raised her head to look at him, realizing what he was about to say. She raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly.

“No pressure, but you also need to understand that Facility 26 doesn’t stockpile goods. The prices will certainly be high, and I just wonder if the place you mentioned can accept that.”

Wen Xin thought for a moment and still decided to give Mu Chengxi a friendly reminder.
