A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 559 - 559 Wen Xiaoxin, Can You Do It?

Mu Chengxi stood up, hugged her waist from behind, and leaned his head on hers, chuckling softly. He then kissed her cheek.

“I can’t promise this won’t happen again, but I assure you that I have no divided loyalties. You can trust me on that.”

“Of course I trust you. If you dare betray me, I’ll make you disappear,” Wen Xin said with a sly smile, raising an eyebrow in satisfaction.

When Wen Xin arrived at the training base’s field, everyone’s eyes turned to her. They noticed several imposing men following her, exuding an intimidating aura.

Jiang Linyan’s hands clenched tightly at her sides. She had expected Mu Chengxi to arrive with Wen Xin, but seeing it still stung her, making her feel incredibly uncomfortable.

To her dismay, she saw that Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe had also joined them. These people once stood behind her, but now everything had changed. They all firmly supported Wen Xin, leaving her to stand alone. It was truly laughable.

Ou Jinzhi noticed the array of gun parts on the table from a distance, his temple throbbing slightly. He had anticipated that Jiang Linyan might choose this as a competition event. Still, he hadn’t expected her to gather so many gun parts, making it a nearly impossible task akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

He approached Jiang Linyan, casually shaking the mechanical parts by her side and sighing helplessly. Women could be terrifying when it came to matters of the heart, losing all sense of reason.

“Did you bring all the parts from the warehouse? Don’t you think finding all the parts for one gun among these is a bit difficult? Are you sure you’re not making things hard for yourself?”

Ou Jinzhi wanted to preserve a bit of Jiang Linyan’s dignity. He didn’t know what other events she had planned, but he hoped she could win at least one, sparing her from complete embarrassment.

“What? You’ve already made me look bad for her, and now you want to protect her? Do you have feelings for her too? Don’t forget, you’re married. You’re my sister’s husband, part of the Jiang family!”

Jiang Linyan lost her composure. Seeing Mu Chengxi standing beside Wen Xin had already unbalanced her, and now Ou Jinzhi defending Wen Xin added to her turmoil.

She felt like she was standing on an isolated island with no one supporting her. Everyone had sided with her enemy, and the man she loved only had eyes for that woman.

Liang Luoyu, standing behind Wen Xin, gently tugged her sleeve and whispered, “Wen Xiaoxin, have you ever handled a gun? Can you find the parts and assemble one from that pile?”

Wen Xin glanced at Liang Luoyu’s hand on her sleeve, then looked up at him. “Is there anything I can’t do? Did you forget? I kill without batting an eye.”

Wen Xin’s arrogant words made Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe pause, recalling the incident at Ancient Market Town pier. This woman, indeed, had no qualms about killing.

Liang Luoyu let go of Wen Xin’s sleeve and took a step back. His mind raced with one thought: crossing someone like her never ends well.

Wen Xin pulled out a lollipop from her pocket, unwrapped it, and put it in her mouth, giving off a nonchalant and roguish vibe as she walked over to Jiang Linyan’s table.

“What’s the game?” Wen Xin casually glanced at the pile of parts on the table, lightly sorting through them.

“Piece together a gun, load it, and hit the distant target. The one who finishes first wins.”

Jiang Linyan coldly smiled, pointing to the parts. “Do you even know what these are? If you don’t, just admit defeat now. It’ll save you from embarrassment.”

Jiang Linyan’s words made Ou Jinzhi’s eye twitch. He could hardly imagine what would happen if Jiang Linyan lost—her current arrogance would turn into utter disgrace.

He glanced at the thousands of students sitting on the field. Jiang Linyan intended to humiliate Wen Xin in front of all the Beijing University students, but she didn’t realize she might end up humiliating herself.

“I’m not too familiar. These gun parts are quite outdated, aren’t they?” Wen Xin picked up some parts with her beautiful hand, glancing at them indifferently.

“These guns are too old, models from over ten years ago. I didn’t really use them much back then; I was just a child.”

Wen Xin frowned, clearly unimpressed with the parts. It was evident this base was a bit poor and using junk.

Seeing Wen Xin’s frown, Jiang Linyan smirked. “Someone, start the timer.”

“I’ll do it.” Liang Luoyu eagerly ran over from the stands, grabbing the stopwatch from Jiang Linyan’s hand.

“I’ll be the witness. I’m fair and impartial, and I won’t cheat.”

Liang Luoyu waved the stopwatch, showing it to Jiang Linyan. He had already planned to time quickly if Wen Xin was doing well and delay if she wasn’t, ensuring her victory.

But Jiang Linyan quickly snatched the stopwatch back, glaring at Liang Luoyu. She didn’t trust him.

“I don’t need you. Your intentions are written all over your face. I don’t believe you’d be fair.”

“You, take it!” Jiang Linyan tossed the stopwatch to another instructor, preferring his timing over Liang Luoyu’s.

The instructor, trembling, took the stopwatch, looking at Liang Luoyu for guidance.

Liang Luoyu smiled at the bewildered instructor, patting his shoulder. “It’s fine. Since Miss Jiang trusts you, just do your best. Start the timer when we begin.”

Liang Luoyu then returned to stand behind Wen Xin. Watching her relaxed demeanor, he didn’t know if she truly knew how to assemble a gun.
