Chapter 902: Chapter 900: Trouble at the Banquet, Wen Xin was Taken Away
“Wen Xin worried that grandma had been too tired these past few days and might overexert herself, so she sent grandma back to rest. I see the party is almost over, you should find her and ask her to co thank the guests together,”
Although Mu Chengxi didn’t think it was necessary for Wen Xin to co out to thank the guests, it was, after all, Wen Xin’s birthday celebration, and the giant birthday cake he had prepared hadn’t been cut yet, so he still needed to ask Wen Xin to co out.
Upon hearing Mu Chengxi’s arrangents, Mu Chengxu felt it was indeed necessary to have Wen Xin co out, and she nodded in agreent.
“Then I’ll go find her.”
After speaking, Mu Chengxu turned around and headed toward the periphery of the party, her steps unconsciously quickening. She calculated the ti and feared that further delay might be too late.
When Mu Chengxu reached Old Madam Mu’s courtyard, Auntie Fu just happened to walk out of the room. Seeing Mu Chengxu hurrying over, she was slightly startled.
“Is there sothing you need, Miss? The Old Madam just went to sleep.”
Hearing Auntie Fu’s words, Mu Chengxu unconsciously frowned. She found it unbelievable, “What’s going on? Grandma has gone to sleep, but where is Wen Xin?”
“Didn’t the Young Mistress return to the party? She should have left over an hour ago, she only stayed here for a while before saying she was going back to find the Young Master. Isn’t she at the party?”
Auntie Fu was sowhat puzzled, surely Wen Xin had already left more than an hour ago, so why was the Miss still looking for Wen Xin here? Could sothing have happened?
Mu Chengxu could tell from Auntie Fu’s expression that she wasn’t lying or joking. She was montarily shocked but quickly regained her composure.
“Then it’s possible that Wen Xin and I missed each other, I will go back now to see if Wen Xin has already returned.”
After finishing, without waiting for a response from Auntie Fu, Mu Chengxu quickly left. She alternated between walking and running, feeling a bad premonition that Wen Xin might have gotten into trouble.
Just as Mu Chengxu was leaving Old Madam’s courtyard, Mo Xuan hurried in from outside, accurately locating Mu Chengxi among the crowd at the party and swiftly approached him.
Mu Chengxi unconsciously furrowed his brow when he saw Mo Xuan. Observing Mo Xuan who had stopped by his side, his eyes flashed with a hint of coolness.
“What happened?”
“Master Xi, Luo Qiete is missing, and we caught only his ‘Shadow’. According to Jiang Linyan, Luo Qiete had already arranged for people to abduct Miss Wen during the party…”
Before Mo Xuan could finish, Mu Chengxi saw Mu Chengxu, urgently running towards them with her dress in hand. Mu Chengxi’s eyes darkened, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling a very bad premonition.
“Little Xi, Auntie Fu said that Wen Xin had left grandma’s courtyard over an hour ago!”
Upon hearing Mu Chengxu’s words, the wine glass in Mu Chengxi’s hand shattered. He imdiately turned and walked out of the venue.
The crowd in the party venue, witnessing Mu Chengxi’s figure that seed to erge from hell, all unconsciously froze, very curious about what had happened.
Gu Yanzhe and Ling Yichen, who had drunk a bit too much, sensed that the atmosphere was off. They gestured to their friends in the corner, and everyone stood up, beginning to maintain order in the party venue.
At that mont, Qian ng, who was idly chatting, also realized that sothing was amiss. He quickly stood up and ran out following Mu Chengxi.
Just as Mu Chengxi was about to get into the car, Qian ng caught up, grabbed Mu Chengxi’s arm, and looked at him, puzzled.
“What happened?”
“Wen Xin is missing. I suspect she was taken. I have a task for you; help retrieve all the surveillance footage from the banquet hall to see who took Wen Xin and when she was taken.”
After speaking, Mu Chengxi withdrew his arm from Qian ng’s grasp and without hesitation, opened the car door and got in.
“Hey, Mu Chengxi, are you alright? How could your family’s surveillance be available to ? You should let your family handle this. I’ll co with you to look for the little princess.”
Without waiting for a reply, Qian ng opened the other car door and sat inside. Mu Chengxi just gave Qian ng a fleeting glance and, not wanting to waste more ti arguing, he coldly spoke to Mo Xuan driving the car, “Go see the people we captured.”
After Mo Xuan acknowledged, he quickly drove away.
In the lounge, when people heard that sothing had happened at the banquet, everyone rushed out? When Wen Huai and Barry ca out, they didn’t even see the taillights of Mu Chengxi’s car, and exchanged glances.
“Do you know what happened?”
“Do you know what happened?”
The two asked simultaneously, both inquiring about the sa issue, unaware of what had transpired.
At that mont, Yuan Junye and Mu Chengxu also ca running out of the banquet hall; Mu Chengxi and Yuan Junye looked at the baffled Wen Huai and Barry standing by the door.
“You two probably don’t know what’s happening, right? Wen Xin has disappeared…”
As soon as Mu Chengxu spoke, both Wen Huai and Barry were shocked, looking incredulously at Mu Chengxu, wanting to be sure if what he said was true.
Seeing their expressions, Mu Chengxu nodded solemnly, “Why would I joke about such a thing at this ti? After Wen Xin brought grandma back to the courtyard, she left grandma’s yard, but nobody has seen her since. She’s gone…”
At this mont, Xiao Mi stepped out from behind everyone. Listening to Mu Chengxu, her beautiful forehead unconsciously furrowed. She suddenly rembered a car she had seen driving past her as she returned from outside…
anwhile, Wen Xin was sitting in the airport lounge, expressionlessly watching the man sitting opposite her, her eyes filled with icy coldness.
“Don’t look at like that. Your look today totally doesn’t match your outfit, you know. You look like a fairy today…it makes want to devour you right now…”
“But I know, in Beijing, I can’t lay a hand on you. I know this is Mu Chengxi’s territory, so I want to take you away. Don’t worry, it only takes half an hour, and I can get you out of here… By the ti Mu Chengxi reacts, we will have already made our escape.”
Wen Xin weakly leaned back in the sofa, slowly closed her eyes, and completely ignored Luo Qiete’s words. His words were too disgusting; she didn’t want to listen to a single one.
Apart from Mu Chengxi, she couldn’t accept anyone else. Even those words of admiration made her feel sick.
