A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 821: Chapter 820: Not Afraid of the Jiang Family’s Downfall, Just Keep Making Trouble

“Just say what you have to say.”

Mu Chengxi, observing Mu Bei’s embarrassed expression, spoke in a gentle tone. He placed the bowl beside him, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat, bowing his head.

“Master Xi, Jiang Linyan has disappeared. Our people, Ling Yichen’s people, and Ou Jinzhi’s people have all been dispatched, but none of them have found any clues about Jiang Linyan. It’s as if she has vanished into thin air in Beijing.”

Mu Bei, looking at Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, spoke gently, recounting how they had searched day and night without any sight of Jiang Linyan, and had no choice but to come back and report this to Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin.

Mu Chengxi briefly paused his eating, lifted his head, and looked at Wen Xin, who slightly raised her eyebrows in response.

“Check if Luo Qiete is in Beijing and find out who exactly is the head of the Kunshan Group. Is it possible that they have hidden Jiang Linyan away?”

As Wen Xin spoke, a commotion sounded from outside. Mu Bei and Mu Chengxi exchanged a look, and Mu Bei quickly went out.

As soon as Mu Bei stepped outside, he saw the Jiang family approaching furiously, led by Jiang Desheng, whom they hadn’t seen in a long while.

“Mu Bei, what do you mean by blocking the door? I know Master Xi is inside. I want to see him,” said Jiang Desheng.

Mu Bei, along with two black-clad bodyguards, stood in front of the Jiang family. As Jiang Desheng spoke, Mu Bei immediately turned and swiftly closed the door of the room.

“I am terribly sorry, Mr. Jiang, but Miss Wen is seriously injured and needs to rest quietly. It is not suitable for so many people to enter. Moreover, Grandfather Xi has already said that he won’t meet with anyone today. Please take your family and go back home!”

Mu Bei spoke precisely and respectfully, his tone polite yet firm, making it clear that they likely aren’t going to let them in today.

“Get out of my way, Mu Bei. I don’t want to cause a scene in the hospital. I just want to see Mu Chengxi and ask him where he has taken my daughter. He needs to hand over my daughter, or else I will call the police!”

Listening to Jiang Desheng’s forceful words, Mu Bei just lightly smiled and said, “Mr. Jiang, I understand your concerns, but Master Xi really hasn’t laid a hand on Miss Jiang.”

“Ever since Miss Wen’s car accident, Master Xi has been by her side without taking a step away. He simply has had no time to attend to Miss Jiang’s affairs. So, perhaps you are accusing the wrong person, Mr. Jiang?”

Hearing Mu Bei’s words, Jiang Desheng clenched his hands in anger, feeling as if he wanted to strike Mu Bei if it were possible.

Even though Mu Bei held a position of importance in Beijing, Jiang Desheng had never respected him, always regarding him merely as a watchdog for Mu Chengxi.

“Mu Bei, I don’t want to waste words here with you. If you don’t want to let me in, that’s fine. Just bring out Mu Chengxi to talk to me. I want to hear him say directly that he has nothing to do with this matter!”

Listening to Jiang Desheng’s arrogant words, Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi exchanged a glance. Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi and raised an eyebrow, “Who do you think urged Jiang Desheng to come here and cause trouble, demanding to see people?”

Looking at Wen Xin’s beautiful yet pale face, Mu Chengxi picked up a piece of pork liver from the plate and held it to Wen Xin’s lips, waiting for her to open her mouth and eat it.

“Is that even a question? Of course, it’s those involved in the matter. They’re feeling guilty and think we’ve captured Jiang Linyan, fearing we’ll implicate them.”

“It really does seem like Jiang Linyan and the people behind her did this, and those behind Jiang Linyan don’t even know where she has gone,”

“So they’re panicking.”

Mu Chengxi saw that Wen Xin didn’t refuse when he fed her, so he continued to pick up a piece of liver and held it to her lips, waiting for Wen Xin to swallow the previous piece before continuing to eat.

Listening to Mu Chengxi’s analysis, Wen Xin smiled lightly, “It seems that once my health is nearly restored, it will still be necessary to visit Kunshan Group. I can’t let those rats hiding in their holes keep stirring up trouble behind the scenes; I really want to see to whom the Old Fox has passed on this matter.”

When Wen Xin had seen Kunshan Group, she had thought that the Old Fox was up to something, but initially, she did not plan to meet with anyone from Independent State, thinking it would be better to handle the matters of Independent State back in Independent State itself.

But now it seems they can’t wait any longer!

Mu Chengxi saw the weak and perilous look on Wen Xin’s face, grabbed a tissue from nearby, and wiped the corners of her mouth before preparing to speak.

Wen Xin seemed to realize what Mu Chengxi wanted to say. She raised her uninjured hand and pointed outside, “The matters of Independent State need to be settled by me, but you can go ahead and deal with the chaos outside first, it’s giving me a headache.”

Wen Xin did not want to hear the noise outside at all, especially the sound of Jiang Desheng’s voice. It made her want to jump out of bed and chase those people away.

“Someone will take care of it soon, don’t worry,” Mu Chengxi hurriedly whispered a few comforting words, watching her irritated expression and worried that her emotional agitation would affect her physical condition.

“Mu Bei, if you don’t let Mu Chengxi come out and explain things to us, we won’t leave today. Have him send Jiang Linyan back to me!”

Jiang Desheng’s voice outside grew louder, and the crowd of onlookers also grew, their voices becoming more and more chaotic.

“Mr. Jiang, we’ve said many times already, we really don’t know about Miss Jiang’s situation. If you are looking for Miss Jiang, there really is no need to waste time here at Master Xi’s home…”

Mu Bei frowned tightly while observing the crowd around him. He didn’t want to escalate the situation, understanding that a big scene wouldn’t be good for anyone.

Just then, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside, and the person at the front was none other than Ou Jinzhi.

Upon seeing Ou Jinzhi, Jiang Desheng felt as though he had seen a life-saving straw and hurriedly went over and grabbed Ou Jinzhi’s arm.

“I knew that if I called you, you would definitely come. Mu Chengxi has kidnapped Linyan and hidden her away. Go find Mu Chengxi and get Linyan out; what they’re doing is illegal detention and a crime!”

Jiang Desheng said a lot, but Ou Jinzhi just looked at him with a faint gaze and then coldly smiled.

“Dad, surely you know what Jiang Linyan has done. What grounds do you have to come here and demand people from Mu Chengxi?”

Ou Jinzhi’s tone was light, but to Jiang Desheng, it sounded like a bombshell—confirmed, just as he had thought, they all knew.

“Dad, I advise you not to make a fuss. Grandfather is still in the hospital, and it’s uncertain whether you can leave here safely today if Mu Chengxi decides to take action. Surely you don’t want the Jiang family to end like this?”
