Chapter 925: 923
Yan Qing listened, and with a helpless chuckle at Wen Xin’s unreasonable tone, he found himself sowhat powerless to argue back.
“Boss, if the problem lies with , I’ll definitely admit it, but I really don’t know anything, how can you expect to confess, huh?”
Feeling since he couldn’t clarify the situation, Yan Qing thought it was better to just let it be; anyway, Wen Xin still needed him for sothing, so she couldn’t really do anything to him.
“If you don’t admit it, then you solve the cloning issue. Next ti, I don’t want to hear any excuses.”
Wen Xin lazed back in her chair, shifting her position and squinting at Yan Qing, waiting for him to give her a satisfactory reply.
Seemingly admitting defeat, Yan Qing turned his cara to face the computer next to him, showing his own screen to Wen Xin.
“Boss, you really are my ancestor, I’ll get right on it now, and if you’re worried, you can watch the whole ti…”
In the end, Yan Qing truly felt helpless and thought having such a boss was the greatest luck he could have in this lifeti.
Wen Xin observed Yan Qing’s expression, raised an eyebrow, and said, “I don’t have ti to watch you work, just handle it well yourself, I’ll wait for a satisfactory outco from you.”
After hanging up on Yan Qing’s call, Wen Xin stood up from her chair, her curiosity piqued by the lively noises outside and wanting to go take a look.
When Wen Xin reached the living room, she discovered it was completely empty, which left her sowhat puzzled about where everyone had gone.
As she walked out of the living room, Wen Xin saw the servant cleaning the entrance. She spoke gently and politely: “Where have Mu Chengxi and the others gone?”
“Miss, Master Xi has gone to look for the guests in the entertainnt room…” The maid replied very respectfully as she looked at Wen Xin, who indeed commanded a sense of awe from her.
Hearing the servant’s reply, Wen Xin gave a faint acknowledgnt before heading towards the direction of the entertainnt room.
Upon entering the entertainnt room, Wen Xin saw Mu Chengxi sitting on the sofa with a black ga piece in his hand, his brow slightly furrowed, as if contemplating where to place it on the board.
Tiptoeing behind Mu Chengxi, Wen Xin moved beside him, eyeing the ga pieces on the board with her beautiful eyes half-closed, seemingly pondering over the ga as well,
Noticing the movent behind him, Mu Chengxi turned around, looked at Wen Xin’s serious contemplating face, and extended his hand, placing the piece in Wen Xin’s palm.
“You place this piece,” said Mu Chengxi, affectionately smiling at Wen Xin who stood behind him. He was not just passing the piece to her, but he was also curious to see where she would choose to place it.
Wen Xin looked at the piece in her hand and without much hesitation, imdiately placed it at the far corner of the board.
The onlookers who had so understanding of the ga felt that Wen Xin’s move was rather absurd. The favorable situation Mu Chengxi seed to have was disrupted by Wen Xin’s single move.
Mu Chengxi hadn’t expected Wen Xin’s piece to land there either, but he didn’t show the sa disappointnt as the others, just quietly waited for Wen Xin to continue the ga.
Her opponent, Ling Yichen, was also montarily taken aback by Wen Xin’s move. He had considered many possibilities for her move, but this was one he’d never thought of.
“Miss Wen, are you sure you want to place your piece here?”
Ling Yichen thought that Wen Xin might not have much understanding of Go. He even wanted to go easy on her and was considering giving Wen Xin a chance to take back a move.
Wen Xin walked around from behind the sofa and sat down next to Mu Chengxi, looking at Ling Yichen with a calm face and shook her head very seriously.
“No need, please continue.”
Seeing how confident Wen Xin was, the expressions of the onlookers beca complicated. They could all tell that Wen Xin’s move was dood to fail from the mont it was played. They couldn’t understand where her confidence was coming from.
Ling Yichen, seeing Wen Xin full of confidence, tily retracted his offer of advice and said to her in a gentle tone, “Miss Wen, you are too kind.”
Wen Xin did not respond to Ling Yichen’s words but just slightly raised her eyebrows, her gaze cool as she watched Ling Yichen’s placed stone.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin’s confident manner, his deep eyes fixed on her expression, and suddenly found it very interesting. He always felt that Wen Xin was up to sothing.
Indeed, after three exchanges, Ling Yichen looked at the board in disbelief, then raised his head to look at Wen Xin.
“How is this possible?”
“How is it not possible? Mister Ling, you are very gracious.”
Wen Xin’s dark bright eyes looked at the incredulous Ling Yichen with a faint smile, then she turned to look at Mu Chengxi sitting beside her and raised her eyebrows at him.
At that mont, Wen Xin completely ignored the gazes of the people around her. To her, their thoughts didn’t matter, she just wanted to know if Mu Chengxi felt that sense of unexpected surprise.
Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin sitting next to him, tightened his grip on her hand, and rubbed her hand back with his thumb.
Just then, a commotion ca from the doorway as Mu Dong led a group of people in. It was Qian ng and his followers, which included several heirs from noble families that Wen Xin didn’t recognize.
“Master Xi, Miss Wen.”
The arrival of Qian ng surprised everyone. However, at that mont, Mu Chengxi stood up, walked over to Qian ng, and began introducing Qian ng and his friends to his own friends.
“I know you all know each other, there might have been so misunderstandings between and Qian ng before, but that’s all in the past now. Today, I’ve brought everyone here to get reacquainted,”
Following Mu Chengxi’s lead, Qian ng also greeted everyone warmly. The group exchanged pleasantries, dissipating the previous tension and livening up the atmosphere.
The living room sofas quickly filled up with people chatting casually. Right then, soone brought up the topic of Wen Xin’s disappearance at the party, leading to a mysterious silence.
Seeing the atmosphere turn awkward, Gu Yanzhe tactfully glossed over the subject, urging everyone to drop the discussion.
Mu Dong prepared so tea and fruit plates, brought them over to the coffee table; this was also an attempt to shift attention away from the issue of Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin’s disappearance at the party.
In that mont, taking advantage of the general lack of attention, Qian ng sidled up to Wen Xin.
He was about to say sothing to Wen Xin when he saw the aircraft model diagram displayed on her phone, laughed and said, “No wonder the uncle says you’re a genius, you’re researching such things.”
