Chapter 968: Chapter 966: Master Xi Mercilessly Taunts Single Dogs

“Have you heard about Ou Shen Zhi’s situation?”

Wen Xin didn’t know why she suddenly thought of Ou Shen Zhi, but upon hearing his name, she unconsciously furrowed her brows.

“Why did you suddenly think of Ou Shen Zhi? What happened to him?”

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin with puzzlement, indicating he was unaware of these matters.

Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi, she ascertained that Mu Chengxi truly didn’t know about Ou Shen Zhi’s situation. Then, Wen Xin explained everything about Ou Shen Zhi in detail, including the illness of Old Mr. Ou, and she did so in a gentle tone to make everything clear.

Listening to Wen Xin’s explanation, Mu Chengxi let out a cold laugh and then spoke leisurely.

“Old Mr. Ou had told me before, he felt he had wronged you regarding this matter, so I’m not surprised he abandoned Ou Shen Zhi.”

“But have you noticed something odd about this situation? To enter the Independent State, one needs a sponsor, think about who might have referred him…”

Mu Chengxi’s deep voice plunged Wen Xin into deep thought. She was momentarily at a loss, unable to think of who might have recommended Ou Shen Zhi to the Old Fox.

Seeing Wen Xin’s rare moment of confusion, Mu Chengxi smiled indulgently and raised his hand to lightly tap her forehead.

“Weren’t you always very clever before? How is it that now you can’t figure it out?”

Mu Chengxi changed his position, encompassing Wen Xin in his arms and softly brushed his chin against her cheek.

Because the stubble Mu Chengxi had just grown was a bit rough, Wen Xin felt a bit of pain as he scraped her. She pressed her head against Mu Chengxi’s chest to avoid his “attack.”

Watching Wen Xin act adorably reliant in his arms, Mu Chengxi smiled fondly and gently pinched Wen Xin’s cheek.

“You might not have thought of something; if Ou Shen Zhi can establish himself in the Independent State, who would benefit the most from it?”

As Mu Chengxi brought up the matter of benefits, Wen Xin slowly raised her head, looking quite puzzled, and somewhat failing to grasp what Mu Chengxi was saying.

Wen Xin’s bewilderment elicited a helpless chuckle from Mu Chengxi. A clever and lively girl, how had she suddenly become so spacey? It was just too adorable.

“It’s Wei Shisheng!” After Mu Chengxi finished speaking, he watched Wen Xin’s expression, wanting to see some distinct emotion on her face, wondering if she would dislike the issue.

All of a sudden, Wen Xin sat up from Mu Chengxi’s embrace, looking at him. How could she have forgotten about this person… Perhaps it was because she had never truly considered him.

“Are you suggesting that Wei Shisheng brought Ou Jinzhi into the Independent State? But Wei Shisheng…”

At that point, something occurred to Wen Xin, and she suddenly laughed. She had almost forgotten the relationship between herself and Wei Shisheng, not to mention her aunt, whom she had met only a few times, Wei Shisheng’s mother, the Old Madam of the Meng Clan.

“How could I not have thought of that? If you hadn’t reminded me, I might really have not considered the fact that Wei Shisheng is also in the Independent State.”

Mu Chengxi watched Wen Xin, somewhat excited, and also propped himself up from the bed, gently embracing Wen Xin.

“Actually, I knew about Ou Shen Zhi’s trip to the Independent State quite early on. It was Gu Yanzhe who told me, and at that time, I investigated a bit and unwittingly learned that it was Wei Shisheng who had recommended Ou Shen Zhi to the Wen family.”

After hearing Mu Chengxi’s explanation, Wen Xin felt as if all the pieces fell into place. Suddenly, she had the notion that Ou Shen Zhi was very likely now in the clutches of the Old Fox, along with Wei Shisheng.

Since the Old Fox felt that he had been deceived by Ou Shen Zhi, he would definitely not let off the person who recommended Ou Shen Zhi to him.

Things were really getting more and more interesting…

Qian Meng sat in the living room, looking at Mu Dong and Mu Bei sitting opposite him, and took the tea handed to him by the servant, softly saying thanks.

“Your Master Xi is really undisciplined, it’s already ten o’clock, and he’s still not out. In a little while, the sun will set.”

Qian Meng sipped his tea, speaking leisurely to Mu Bei, he had come today specifically for matters regarding the Jiang family, and now, Mu Chengxi hadn’t even gotten out of bed yet, truly indulging himself too much.

Mu Bei looked at Qian Meng, feeling not the slightest fear at this moment; instead, he thought Qian Meng was like a clown, completely different from the Qian Meng of before.

“Young Master Qian, if you can’t wait, you can give Master Xi a call… to inquire when he will come out of his room.”

“Hey, Mu Bei, I’ve noticed you’ve been pretty arrogant lately. Do you think I’ve become too easy-going recently? So you’re being so impolite!”

Qian Meng was pretending to be angry, but he still didn’t look very threatening; even Mu Dong couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Looking at Mu Bei and Mu Dong mocking him, Qian Meng felt annoyed. He wanted to give these two a piece of his mind, but the next second, he heard Mu Chengxi’s voice.

“Young Master Qian certainly has free time to come over early in the morning to report.”

Qian Meng could hear the teasing in Mu Chengxi’s voice, but he didn’t take it to heart; he turned his head to look at Mu Chengxi,

Just at the moment of turning around, Qian Meng felt his heart struck hard, his entire chest becoming very oppressive in an instant; it was too uncomfortable!

How could they be so blissful, looking at Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi holding hands, Qian Meng felt it was more painful than being killed; he simply couldn’t stand such a blow.

Qian Meng quickly turned away, one hand pressed against his chest, not wanting to face the scene before him; it was indeed too painful!

Mu Bei and Mu Dong looked at Qian Meng’s actions, glanced at each other, and both stood up in unspoken agreement.

“Master Xi, I’ll go ask the kitchen to prepare breakfast…”

“Master Xi… I’m going to check out the training base at the back…”

Mu Bei and Mu Dong both found an appropriate excuse to leave quickly, not daring to stay here any longer, as the situation did not seem very optimistic.

Mu Chengxi responded indifferently, indicating his agreement to their departure, and then he took Wen Xin by the hand and sat down opposite Qian Meng.

Qian Meng, seeing the way Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi flaunted their affection, felt an unbearable pain in his heart.

“Mu Chengxi, do you know, single dogs are also protected animals, torturing dogs like this is illegal! It’s enough that you have a girlfriend, is there a need to stick to her like this?”

Qian Meng, looking at the tightly clasped hands of Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin, felt deeply struck…it was just too envious!

Seeing Qian Meng’s frustrated behavior, Mu Chengxi raised an eyebrow, smiled gently, and stretched out his hand to loop around Wen Xin’s waist, pulling Wen Xin a bit closer into his embrace.

“I honestly didn’t know that tormenting single dogs was a crime.”
