Eight hours later, Wen Xin and Chu Yunxuan arrived at the airport hall in Continent M. The hall was bustling with people.
On the plane, Chu Yunxuan received a ssage from Yan Qing, stating he would be waiting for her and the Doll at the airport.
When Chu Yunxuan received the ssage, she could sense Yan Qing’s excitent. Finally eting the Doll—it would be abnormal if he remained calm.
“Contact Yan Qing and ask where he is. If he’s not here yet, tell him not to co; we’ll head back directly.”
Wen Xin’s tone was icy. Throughout the journey, she focused on the ssages on her laptop, neither eating nor drinking, and didn’t rest. She only wanted to find Mu Chengxi as soon as possible.
“I’m calling Yan Qing now…” Before Chu Yunxuan could finish, she saw Yan Qing looking around at the exit. She grabbed Wen Xin’s arm and led her outside.
“I see him, let’s go.”
Chu Yunxuan skillfully navigated through the crowd with Wen Xin, quickly reaching Yan Qing. After a brief greeting, they left the airport hall together.
Seeing the cold, twenty-year-old beauty beside Chu Yunxuan, Yan Qing’s first thought was that this girl must be the Doll.
Although he had ntally prepared himself, seeing Wen Xin in person shattered his composure. It was a huge blow to realize the Doll was a young girl. Feeling lost, Yan Qing walked them to the car he had prepared, opened the door, and let them in.
Wen Xin’s mind was entirely on Mu Chengxi, so she didn’t notice Yan Qing’s reaction. She kept her head down, looking at her phone ssages.
However, Chu Yunxuan noticed Yan Qing’s unease. She patted his shoulder lightly in silent comfort.
In the car, after responding to a ssage, Wen Xin put her phone in her backpack and looked at Yan Qing. “How’s the investigation going? Any news?”
“Huh?” Yan Qing, lost in thought, was startled by Wen Xin’s cold voice.
“I asked, how’s the investigation? No news about Mu Chengxi yet? Any leads from Continent F?” Wen Xin’s tone was calm, though she was anxious. She understood Yan Qing’s state, so she patiently explained.
“Oh, we haven’t found Mu Chengxi’s trail yet, but we can confirm that the overlord of Continent F won’t make a move on him. Soone nad Mu Xi suspects people from Continent M are behind this, given their interest in Continent F’s gold mine.”
Hearing that people from Continent M were involved with the gold mine, Wen Xin frowned and looked at Chu Yunxuan.
“Who decided this? Why didn’t I know about it?”
Startled by Wen Xin’s icy tone, Chu Yunxuan shook her head, indicating she was also unaware.
“I don’t know either. If you don’t know, how would I? I’ve been with you or taking care of Yuan Junye and dealing with Tianye Group’s projects. No one contacted about Continent M.”
Chu Yunxuan’s explanation made Wen Xin frown even more. It seed soone in Continent M was rebelling.
“Then investigate Continent M internally. If they’re behind it, don’t let anyone go. If not, it’s a bigger problem. Let’s head back to Truth Listener’s base.”
Wen Xin rubbed her aching temples. Lack of rest and the current headache-inducing situation was taking a toll on her.
Leaning back in the car seat, Wen Xin exuded a cold and distant aura, deterring anyone from approaching.
Yan Qing, through the rearview mirror, saw Wen Xin’s state. Sitting in the front seat, he didn’t dare to say a word, fearing he might anger her.
“I’ll return to Truth Listener’s base with Yan Qing. You check Continent M’s headquarters. Don’t ask about Continent F directly. Confirm who did this and their motive before informing . Stay safe.”
Finding Mu Chengxi was already a headache for Wen Xin. She couldn’t afford anything happening to Chu Yunxuan as well.
Wen Xin said this as she pulled out her phone and dialed Mu Dong’s number. It rang for a long ti before connecting.
“Miss Wen, Master Xi was busy late and just went to bed after the eting. Recently, he…”
“Any news on Mu Chengxi? Has anyone contacted you for negotiations?” Wen Xin cut off Mu Dong’s excuses, impatiently asking her questions directly.
“Ah? Miss Wen…you…”
Mu Dong didn’t expect Wen Xin to know about this. Her interruption oddly relieved him.
“Right, no news yet. Miss Wen, we didn’t intend to hide it from you. There were just so issues…I’m sorry.”
Wen Xin wasn’t interested in Mu Dong’s apology. She coldly said, “Inform if you hear anything.”
“Understood.”
Mu Dong sensed Wen Xin’s displeasure and dared not say more, fearing to anger her. He knew Wen Xin wasn’t ordinary and didn’t want her involved in this dangerous matter. Master Xi also didn’t want her to risk it.
“Miss Wen, rest assured, we’ll find Master Xi as soon as possible.”
“Good, I’ll wait for your update.” After confirming Mu Dong had no more information, Wen Xin hung up.
It seed only her global security network could find Mu Chengxi now. She couldn’t think of anyone capable of taking Mu Chengxi without anyone noticing.
