Chapter 630: Unable to Refute Being Called a Temptress
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
âItâs up to Wen Xin. If she wants to go, Iâll be happy, but if she finds it annoying, I wonât force her. Sheâll eventually be the mistress of the Mu family, and many people will want to curry favor with her. Thereâs no need for her to lower herself to get along with those people,â Mu Chengxi said.
In Mu Chengxiâs heart, Wen Xin was his precious one, responsible only for her happiness. She didnât need to deal with troublesome matters or unpleasant people.
Mu Chengxiâs words made Old Madam Mu frown slightly, but she couldnât refute him. Eventually, she agreed that Mu Chengxi had a point.
âFine, let it be your way. For now, just focus on resting. Your aunts will handle the family banquet preparations.â
âThank you, Grandma, for taking care of it,â Mu Chengxi said sweetly, feeling satisfied that Old Madam Mu wasnât pressuring Wen Xin about the matter. fÉŸÄewebnÏveâ.com
Old Madam Mu, well aware of Mu Chengxiâs tactics, gave him a sharp look but then turned to Wen Xin with a kind smile.
âIâve already sent someone to the seafood market. How about having lunch in Grandmaâs courtyard?â she asked.
âSure, Grandma. How could I say no to a meal prepared by you?â Wen Xin replied with a sweet smile, happily agreeing to Old Madam Muâs invitation.
After spending some time chatting, the housekeeper hurried in to inform them of visitors at the front yard, prompting Old Madam Mu and Mu Chengxu to leave in a hurry.
Once they left, Wen Xin turned to Mu Chengxi, worry evident in her voice. âYour face looks quite pale. Should I take you to rest?â

Mu Chengxiâs dark eyes fixed on Wen Xinâs bright ones, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. âAre you trying to enchant me, temptress?â
The teasing remark made Wen Xinâs cheeks flush red as she recalled last nightâs events, feeling flustered.
âRest if you want. I have work to do,â Wen Xin retorted, annoyed, and walked towards the upstairs study, leaving Mu Chengxi chuckling softly at her reaction.
Upstairs, Wen Xin entered Mu Chengxiâs study, attempting to access his computer, but was blocked by a password. She tried both their birthdays to no avail and eventually used her technical skills to bypass the security.
A minute later, she received a WeChat message from Mu Chengxi. âCouldnât you have just asked me for the password instead of hacking it?â
Wen Xin smirked at the message and replied, âI prefer to keep a low profile, but my skills donât allow it.â
Mu Chengxi, seeing her response, chuckled and continued his conference with his people in Continent F.
âMaster Xi, weâve heard about a new force emerging around the Independent State. Should we investigate?â
Since learning about the attack on Mu Chengxi, the people in Continent F had developed an interest in challenging the Independent Stateâs strength.
âNo need. Focus on stabilizing Continent F first. Weâll deal with other matters later.â
Wen Xinâs strategic bombing had significantly impacted the Independent State, indicating she had no immediate plans to take control. Mu Chengxi didnât want to interfere with her plans.
Ever since Yan Qingâs visit to the Independent State and Wen Xinâs network security system involvement, Truth Listener had gained considerable control over the stateâs movements.
âBoss, the elders of the Independent State are negotiating with a mysterious organization. Weâve never heard of this group before, and there are no available records on them,â Yan Qing reported via a video call.
Ever since he found out about Wen Xinâs identity, Yan Qing would always video call Wen Xin whenever he wanted to find her. He felt that it would be easier to explain things to her face to face.
Wen Xin, organizing files on her computer, turned to look at the video feed. âA mysterious organization? What do they do?â
The topic suddenly piqued Wen Xinâs curiosity. She had always felt that the data she had was already very powerful, but she did not expect that there would still be fish caught in the net.
âWeâre not sure yet, but the elders are very interested in their offerings. Theyâve already formed an alliance.â
Wen Xinâs brow furrowed. âInvestigate further. Iâll have Moore look into it as well. Iâll let you know if I find anything.â
âOne more thing, I need a decent gift for Grandmaâs birthday. Can you handle it?â
âSure, Iâll find something suitable from the upcoming black market auctions. I guarantee youâll be satisfied,â Yan Qing assured her with a confident smile, which Wen Xin found exasperating. She promptly ended the call, considering refusing his future video requests.
After hanging up, Wen Xin sent her organized files to Zhao Honghanâs email. Within ten minutes, he called her.
âUncle Zhao, did you see the documents I sent you?â
âYes, I saw them. Are you sure about this, Wen Xin? You know the impact this could have on many families⊠are you certain?â Zhao Honghan, still shocked by the documents, questioned her decision. He did not know where Wen Xin had obtained this information, but he knew that if this were leaked, it would cause a massive shock to that person and the family behind him.
