A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

In fact, it was Wen Xin’s first time wearing such shoes. Initially, Mu Chengxi wanted Mu Bei to prepare a comfortable pair for her, but after trying them on, Wen Xin felt they were fine and didn’t ask Mu Bei to exchange them.

“As long as you’re alright, that’s good. But remember to speak up if you get tired, I’ll have my assistant prepare a comfortable pair for you,” Mu Chengxu said.

Mu Chengxu turned his head to look at his assistant behind him, and the assistant immediately understood Mu Chengxu’s intent and quickly left.

With a grip on Wen Xin’s hand, Mu Chengxu led her through the crowd and directly into Old Madam Mu’s courtyard. His innate arrogance caused everyone to look in his direction unconsciously.

“That must be the eldest young lady, right? I heard she returned to Beijing some time ago, probably looking to develop her career here?”

“Don’t you guys wonder about the woman beside the eldest young lady? She’s so beautiful, and judging by her demeanor, she must also be a lady of high society. However, I’ve never heard of any famous lady with such a demeanor!”

“Don’t you find it odd that this young woman just appeared out of nowhere? The Seventh Young Master is known to have a girlfriend, and this is a family banquet. Could this woman be someone Old Madam specifically arranged?”

“You might be onto something. Haven’t you all heard? It’s said that Master Xi always has his girlfriend by his side, but this time it’s different. Only Mu Bei is with him, which implies that the country girl can’t make it to the big stage after all.”

“That’s not necessarily true. Just because the eldest young lady brought a girlfriend doesn’t mean she’s Master Xi’s future wife. Master Xi is deeply affectionate towards his girlfriend and won’t tolerate any speculation,” someone commented.

As they said this, the group couldn’t help but snicker, none of them doubting their speculations.

Although Master Xi’s girlfriend indeed had good looks, in the face of absolute power, they still had to consider the reality; even Mu Chengxi probably couldn’t escape this bizarre circle.

Diwu Qixian arrived behind Mu Yino later than the others and didn’t see the person who walked into the courtyard with the eldest young lady. She only heard the gossip about Mu Chengxi changing girlfriends.

She was one of the few who knew about the affair between Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin. Even though it wasn’t apparent at school, she secretly shipped the two of them.

Now that her two favorite people were no longer together, Diwu Qixian’s first reaction was annoyance. She wanted to see who the shameless person disrupting her ship was – it was simply outrageous!

She gently hooked Mu Yino’s fingers with her own and whispered, pulling Mu Yino back a step quietly.

“Mom, we haven’t paid our respects to Grandmother yet. Let’s go see Grandmother!” Diwu Qixian proposed.

As Diwu Qixian came up with this idea, she was already secretly plotting a grand spectacle in her mind. She had decided that even at the risk of upsetting Old Madam Mu, she needed to seek justice for Wen Xin.

So what about the Mu family? And what about the Seventh Young Master? Even the prince of the capital, for that matter? They couldn’t possibly bully Wen Xin and expect nobody to speak up, right?

Mu Yino wasn’t aware of Diwu Qixian’s thoughts. Seeing Diwu Qixian take the initiative to visit Old Madam Mu made her unconsciously happy.

“Sure, you used to make all kinds of excuses when I took you to see the Old Madam. What made you change your mind so suddenly today?” Mu Yino said enthusiastically.

“I’ve grown up now, and every time I visit Old Madam Mu to pay my respects, she’s very kind to me. Naturally, I also want to be a person with a conscience and not let down Old Madam Mu’s affection for me, right?”

It was a breeze for Diwu Qixian to bamboozle Mu Yino, who really believed Diwu Qixian’s words, joyfully took her by the hand, and led her towards Old Madam Mu’s courtyard.

At this time, Wen Xin sat beside Mu Chengxi, straightening the cuffs and tie on his sleeves. The two of them seemed very close in their movements.

Meanwhile, Wei Manqing and Mu Chengxi’s two aunts were complaining to Old Madam Mu about Mu Chengxi’s partiality towards Wen Xin, creating a harmonious atmosphere in the hall, punctuated by occasional bursts of laughter.

Diwu Qixian gripped Mu Yino’s hand a little tighter, hearing the harmonious laughter coming from inside. She had already begun to imagine Wen Xin alone and dejected.

No wonder Wen Xin hadn’t gone back to military training and hadn’t returned to school after it began; everything was because of the Mu family. She wondered where the Mu family had hidden Wen Xin and if she was feeling very distressed.

Diwu Qixian took a deep breath, and before Mu Yino could react, she let go of her hand, walked into Old Madam Mu’s front hall with righteous indignation.

“You’re all laughing so happily, isn’t that a bit too much?” Diwu Qixian walked into the front hall, shouting as she entered, with a tone full of anger.

Especially when she saw the woman bending down to adjust Mu Chengxi’s collar, looking onto Mu Chengxi’s chest, while Mu Chengxi, wearing a smile, looked down affectionately at the woman.

Diwu Qixian really felt this was unfair to Wen Xin!

Seeing the woman in front of Mu Chengxi dressed in a light-colored exquisite gown, Diwu Qixian thought of Wen Xin’s ordinary T-shirts and jeans and felt it was so unfair to Wen Xin. Was this the difference between love and lack thereof?

“Mu Chengxi, do you realize you have a girlfriend? How can you behave like this? Are you being fair to Wen Xin? Tell me, have you hidden Wen Xin away? Where have you hidden her? You might not love her, but you…”

Just as Diwu Qixian was about to continue her tirade, Wen Xin finished straightening Mu Chengxi’s collar, slowly straightened up, turned her head, and looked at Diwu Qixian, who had one hand on her hip, the other pointing at Mu Chengxi, her face flushed red with anger glaring at Mu Chengxi.

When Diwu Qixian clearly saw the face of the woman next to Mu Chengxi, she involuntarily froze on the spot, her bright eyes widening even further, filled with shock.

“This… Wen Xin? You’re the woman those gossips are talking about outside? How…”

As Diwu Qixian spoke, she felt as if she had misunderstood something. She had seen with her own eyes Mu Chengxi’s doting on Wen Xin. How could she have thought Mu Chengxi would abandon Wen Xin?

She slapped her own head in frustration, blaming herself for not being rational enough, which is why she had made such a blunder!

Mu Yino was also startled by Diwu Qixian’s behavior. She walked over to Diwu Qixian and tugged at her, “Qixian…”

“Qixian, you’ve come, but you didn’t come to see Grandmother. As soon as you arrived, you caused such confusion… do you know Xin girl?”

Old Madam Mu’s tone was gentle, revealing no hint of her attitude. Diwu Qixian turned her head towards Old Madam Mu with panic, her eyes slightly red, feeling she might have done something wrong.
