Chapter 830: Chapter 829: Being Good to You Is Her Instinct
Mu Chengxi had not expected Xiao Mi’s reaction to be so swift; he stepped back, giving her a chance to catch her breath.
With her shoulder, Xiao Mi fiercely bumped into Mu Chengxi’s chest, her move was so vicious and quick that Mu Chengxi almost released his grip, almost providing her with an opportunity to escape.
As Mu Chengxi frowned at Xiao Mi, who was desperately trying to flee, he no longer cared if he would hurt her and forcefully threw her onto Qian Meng’s car.
Not anticipating Mu Chengxi to be so difficult to deal with, Xiao Mi felt somewhat dizzy from the toss, lying on the car, breathing heavily, her whole body seemingly falling apart.
Looking at Xiao Mi who lay motionless on the car, Mu Chengxi wondered what trick she was playing, he lifted his head to look at Qian Meng.
“Do you have any rope? Tie this wench up, I want to take her back.”
This was the first time Mu Chengxi had referred to Xiao Mi in such a way; before knowing the relationship between Wen Xin and Xiao Mi, Mu Chengxi had never thought of paying her any attention.
Now, his willingness to concern himself with her was solely because Wen Xin was so troubled over her, how could he bear to see Wen Xin upset?
“Where are you taking me? I don’t want to go back!”
Xiao Mi had begun to recover by then, she looked at Qian Meng, who was about to tie her up with a rope, and kicked accurately at Qian Meng’s chest, her action ruthless, without a trace of hesitation.
After Xiao Mi kicked him, Qian Meng unconsciously clutched his chest and stumbled several steps backward, giving Xiao Mi another chance to escape.
Mu Chengxi’s eyebrows knitted together in irritation as he watched Xiao Mi’s movements; he really wanted to settle this unruly girl once and for all.
But because of Wen Xin, he had a bit more patience and lifted his leg to kick at the bend of Xiao Mi’s leg, and before she could run away, she fell straight to the ground.
Looking at Xiao Mi who had fallen, Mu Chengxi directly picked her up by the jacket from the ground, grumbling as he held her up.
“If not for Wen Xin, I would never have bothered with you, but with Wen Xin around, I can’t just ignore you. I don’t like seeing her troubled because of you.”
“Why does she care about me? We’re just two people who met by chance. I know she only wanted to take me away when she met me because she pitied me!”
“Now that you all know my identity, there’s no need to continue pretending to be kind-hearted. I’m not worthy, nor am I pitiable, I’m dangerous!”
Xiao Mi looked defiantly at Mu Chengxi, had it not been for Wen Xin, she would have fought Mu Chengxi to the death even if she couldn’t beat him.
However, it was precisely because of the special care Wen Xin had given her that she softened for the first time. She didn’t want to become adversaries with Mu Chengxi, nor did she want to become enemies with Wen Xin because of Mu Chengxi.
“Her kindness to you isn’t about trying to be a good person, you’ll find out eventually that she is a woman without sympathy, even ruthless,” he said.
“Being kind to you is just her instinct. When you see her, she should tell you the reason. So I advise you to stop struggling; I am determined to take you back today.”
As Mu Chengxi spoke, he coordinated with Qian Meng and quickly tied Xiao Mi up, ensuring that there would be no accidents. They threw her into another van.
After tossing Xiao Mi into the vehicle, Mu Chengxi turned and glanced at Qian Meng, “Are you alright? This young lady is pretty strong. If it’s too much, have someone take you to the hospital to get checked out.”
Mu Chengxi could feel during his struggle with Xiao Mi that she was professionally trained. If he wasn’t truly strong, he might have really had no way of capturing Xiao Mi.
Qian Meng raised his hand to rub his chest and shook his head, “It’s okay, just a bit painful, nothing too serious. That said, this girl is really quite formidable.”
Watching Qian Meng’s expression and listening to his words, Mu Chengxi cracked a faint smile but didn’t say anything to explain.
“There’s nothing more to do here, let your men go back. Don’t linger too long. Since they were able to leave before your people arrived, it just goes to show that these people are not simple.”
“There’s no need to be greedy for battle, let them hide well. This game of cat and mouse is quite fun.”
Mu Chengxi gave Qian Meng a glance and a faint smile before pulling open the car door and sliding in.
Watching Mu Chengxi’s actions, Qian Meng raised his hand and waved to a man in black in the distance. The man quickly ran over, “Young Master Qian…”
Qian Meng glanced at the man, pointed towards the driver’s seat, “Drive, take us back to the city.”
The man glanced at Mu Chengxi and the woman tied up in the back seat, pausing briefly before turning back to Qian Meng.
Without giving him another look, Qian Meng, his hand still on his chest, turned around once before pulling open the passenger-side door and getting in the car.
Once Mu Chengxi saw that someone was driving, he casually mentioned an address.
Hearing Mu Chengxi mention an address different from what Qian Meng had in mind, Qian Meng turned his head to look at Mu Chengxi.
“Where do you plan on taking her?”
“Taking her home, but before that, I need to buy Wen Xin some treats.”
As Mu Chengxi mentioned this, he remembered the look of contentment on Wen Xin’s face as she sat on the curb eating corn.
Upon hearing that Mu Chengxi was going to buy something for Wen Xin, Qian Meng didn’t object and lightly said to the driver, “Just head towards that address, and drive steadily.”
While speaking, Qian Meng didn’t forget to glance at Xiao Mi, who was tied up by Mu Chengxi. He thought that Xiao Mi’s posture didn’t look very comfortable, and driving more steadily should make it a bit better.
The car drove for about fifty minutes before arriving at the address mentioned by Mu Chengxi. Sure enough, there was a small three-wheeled cart parked on the roadside. Getting out of the car, Mu Chengxi smelled the familiar aroma, the burnt scent that Wen Xin liked.
Seeing Mu Chengxi head towards the tricycle, Qian Meng’s gaze filled with curiosity. He had no idea what Mu Chengxi could possibly buy from a tricycle, worth taking such a big detour for.
Xiao Mi’s hands and feet were numb from being tied, and she struggled to shift her body a bit, causing a tingling sensation that was so uncomfortable she couldn’t help but let out a light cry.
“Ah…”
Hearing the delicate whimper, Qian Meng quickly turned his head to look at Xiao Mi, his brow slightly furrowing. He hadn’t expected the girl who was so fierce just a moment ago to sound so pleasant when moaning.
“You… what’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?”
Hearing Qian Meng’s clueless question, Xiao Mi lifted her head and stared coldly at Qian Meng, “Why don’t you try being tied up like this?”
As Xiao Mi looked at Qian Meng’s simple and silly face, a mischievous idea suddenly came to her. She blinked at Qian Meng and swallowed.
