Chapter 114: Wen Xin Left Angry
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This was the first time Ma Wenyuan had seen Wen Xin so openly favoring someone. When he saw Mu Chengxi’s actions, Ma Wenyuan knew that something was wrong. He had been holding it in, but he did not expect Wen Xin to be so serious!
“Then it’s your fault!” Wen Xin let go of Mu Chengxi’s hand and pulled over a chair at the side. She sat down lazily on the chair, her attitude light and unrestrained.
“Mu Chengxi and Wei Shisheng being a couple is also my fault? You heartless little thing, why are you protecting him like this? Do you know him?”
Ma Wenyuan could indulge Wen Xin in everything, but he could not just watch as Wen Xin was bullied. It was understandable for young boys and girls to fall in love for the first time, but Mu Chengxi was not a good person. He could not accept it.
“I’m not protecting him. I just think that he’s good to me and probably won’t bully me.”
As Wen Xin spoke, Mu Chengxi poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Wen Xin. Without thinking, Wen Xin pushed it in front of Ma Wenyuan and raised her eyebrows at Ma Wenyuan.
Looking at Wen Xin’s disrespectful expression, Ma Wenyuan felt a surge of anger.
” Wen Xin, let me tell you. You don’t know about the Mu family. Mu Chengxi had a marriage arrangement since he was young, and that was Wei Shisheng. Wei Shisheng was relatively low-key before, but this time, Wei Shisheng entered the research institute, and Mu Chengxi also took a fancy to the research institute’s things. Hence, their relationship became public. You and him… What results can there be?”
Ma Wenyuan suppressed the anger in his heart. He couldn’t vent his anger on Wen Xin, so he could only patiently persuade her, hoping that Wen Xin would wake up.
“That’s why I said that this matter is your fault!” Wen Xin took the tea from Mu Chengxi and took a sip. Her tone was dull and devoid of warmth.
“You still blame me? What did I do wrong? You think it’s my fault?” This time, Ma Wenyuan was so angry that he laughed. He knew that Wen Xin was unreasonable, but he didn’t expect her to be so unreasonable in this matter.
“The mistake was that you let Wei Shisheng enter the research institute. Don’t think that I don’t know how Wei Shisheng entered the research institute. You don’t even have a bottom line?”
Wen Xin’s voice was icy cold. Ma Wenyuan’s hand that was holding the cup of water paused slightly. This was the first time he had heard Wen Xin speak to him in such a tone.
Ma Wenyuan lowered his head and didn’t dare to look at Wen Xin. He knew that although Wen Xin didn’t care about the research institute, she would still be informed of the research institute’s matters on time. He wasn’t surprised that Wen Xin knew about it.
Wen Xin knocked on the table in frustration. She didn’t want to get involved in this matter, nor did she want to embarrass Ma Wenyuan in front of Mu Chengxi and the others. However, Ma Wenyuan insisted on bringing up the matter between Wei Shisheng and Mu Chengxi, which made her very frustrated.
Wen Xin shook off Mu Chengxi’s hand and leaned lazily against the back of the chair. The corners of her eyes were slightly red as she tried his best to control her emotions.
“Wei Shisheng is indeed quite talented in the Biology Department at Jingda University, but even more outstanding than her is Wu Zijing, the one the research institute is really interested in. I have access to all of Wu Zijing’s information, and I can’t believe you didn’t know about this!” Wen Xin retorted.
Wen Xin’s low and hoarse voice was filled with frustration. There were some things that she did not say, but it did not mean that she did not know.
“Uncle Ma, I told you that I don’t want to interfere with the research institute’s matters, but you shouldn’t keep using Wei Shisheng and Mu Chengxi’s matters to azitate me!”
Wen Xin closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. This was the first time in her life that she had felt wronged.
Mu Chengxi’s heart ached so much that he wanted to pull Wen Xin into his arms, but he did not dare to. He stretched out his hand and touched Wen Xin tentatively, but Wen Xin pushed him away mercilessly.
“You can handle Wei Shisheng’s matters at the research institute yourself. You can discuss the collaboration between you and Mu Chengxi yourself.”
Wen Xin was unable to control her emotions. She was very annoyed, but she did not want to lose her temper here.
Wen Xin stood up and picked up her backpack from the back of the chair. She put it on his back and lowered her eyes to look at Mu Chengxi. “It’s your own business. You should handle it yourself. I don’t want everyone to tell me that you, Mu Chengxi, have a relationship with another woman.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Xin left the private room without looking back.
Liang Luoyu, who was standing at the side, glanced at Mu Chengxi and chased after her without hesitation.
After Wen Xin left, Mu Chengxi’s gentle aura was completely withdrawn. His entire body emitted a cold aura, letting those who were familiar with him know that the master was angry.
“Mr. Ma, I respect you because you are Wen Xin’s elder. Since you were able to raise Wen Huai, your relationship with Wen Xin should not be shallow. But today’s matter, you seem to be a little deliberate, right?”
“Since you know about the matters in Beijing, you should also know that I’ve clarified my relationship with Wei Shisheng more than once. In order not to get involved with her, I’ve already left Beijing for a long time.”
“I don’t know if you’re doing this on purpose because you don’t want to cooperate with me, or if there’s some other reason.”
Mu Chengxi lowered his dark eyes and did not look at Ma Wenyuan, who was sitting across from him. He felt that he could ignore Wen Xin’s feelings. Even if the collaboration was successful, there was no need to do so.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, put a cigarette in his mouth, lit it, and took a deep puff.
“I don’t care what angle you’re unhappy with me from, but I’m asking you to respect Wen Xin’s decision. I’ll personally return to the capital to settle Wei Shisheng’s matter. In the future, when we meet again, please don’t bring this matter to trouble her. She needs protection, not more trouble.”
Mu Chengxi put out the cigarette in his hand, stood up, and strode out of the room.
Gu Yanzhe and Mu Dong stood there awkwardly. They were in a dilemma. They did not know whether to chase after their master or to say goodbye to Ma Wenyuan before leaving.
Just as the two of them were hesitating, Ma Wenyuan raised his head and looked at Gu Yanzhe. “I’ll get my assistant to talk to you about the collaboration.”
Ma Wenyuan was very clear-headed. He had always known that there was no harm in cooperating with Mu Chengxi, but he had made the mistake of letting Wei Shisheng enter the research institute. He did not want to continue making mistakes, so he rejected the cooperation between the two parties.
Now that he thought about it, he was the one who was muddle-headed. He should be standing on Wen Xin’s side.
Wen Xin had someone he liked and someone he could rely on. He should be happy!
With Mu Chengxi around, Wen Xin would not have to take the risk alone. Why was he so muddle-headed and hurt his family’s Eldest Miss?
Mu Chengxi walked out of the private room and saw Liang Luoyu walking back alone. He looked at Liang Luoyu and asked,” Where’s Wen Xin?”
“When I went out, Wen Xin was gone. I couldn’t find her anywhere.”
Liang Luoyu looked at Mu Chengxi apologetically. He thought he could catch up to him, but he did not expect Wen Xin to be so fast and disappear without a trace..
