A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 623: He’s Never Been This Badly Injured Before

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wen Xin felt a bit guilty. She should have let Mu Chengxi rest a bit longer before leaving, but she was worried Alfredo might stop them after handling the chaos, so she hastily arranged for an earlier flight. It was a rushed decision.

“I’m fine; don’t worry. Rest for a bit, and we’ll check on Tan Xingyue after we land.”

Mu Chengxi gently rubbed Wen Xin’s head with his long, slender fingers, soothing her anxiety.

Wen Xin buried her head in Mu Chengxi’s shoulder, lightly hugging him. “I’ll sleep for a while. If you get uncomfortable, just tell me. Don’t force yourself.”

Wen Xin got up from Mu Chengxi’s embrace, settled into her seat, took the blanket Chu Yunxuan handed her and covered herself. She soon fell into a peaceful sleep, her breathing even and quiet.

With Wen Xin asleep, everyone on the plane moved more quietly. Mu Chengxi adjusted his position slightly, took the tablet Mu Bei handed him and began working on the accumulated tasks.

Chu Yunxuan watched Mu Chengxi work diligently, wanting to remind him to rest, but she swallowed her words. She sat back in her seat and dozed off like Wen Xin.

When Wen Xin and her group disembarked, Mu Chengxu also got off a different flight. Seeing the familiar figures, she quickly caught up.

“Mu Bei!”

Hearing the familiar voice, Mu Bei and the others stopped. Wen Xin sat lazily on a luggage cart, Chu Yunxuan pulling the cart, and Mu Bei pushing Mu Chengxi’s wheelchair.

Mu Chengxu caught up, almost exclaiming at the sight of Mu Chengxi in a wheelchair.

“What happened to you? How did you come back looking like this? Were you in a car accident or beaten up?”

Mu Chengxu’s surprised voice drew the attention of people around. Wen Xin quickly jumped off the luggage cart and signaled for silence.

“Sister, it’s a long story, and this isn’t the place to talk. Let’s head out first.”

Wen Xin pulled Mu Chengxu towards the exit, with Mu Bei pushing Mu Chengxi closely behind.

Chu Yunxuan took the luggage and left first, messaging Wen Xin that they would meet at the hospital.

The group entered a quiet café, where Mu Chengxu sat opposite Mu Chengxi, scrutinizing him. Despite his condition, he seemed in good spirits, but Mu Chengxu’s brows furrowed.

“You disappeared for over ten days and returned like this. Don’t you owe us an explanation?”

Wen Xin lazily propped her chin on one hand and stirred her coffee with the other, waiting for Mu Chengxi to explain.

With both women looking at him, Mu Chengxi calmly sipped the lemon water on the table and began, “I was ambushed, and this is the result. If Wen Xin hadn’t come to rescue me, I might not have made it back.”

Mu Chengxi’s simple explanation left Mu Chengxu shocked. People in the capital often thought of Mu Chengxi as a frivolous playboy, but Mu Chengxu knew better. Hearing he had been ambushed was beyond shocking.

“What exactly happened?” Mu Chengxu looked at Wen Xin, finding Mu Chengxi’s words hard to believe.

“We’ll discuss the details at home. This isn’t the place. Please take him back to the old house to recover. I need to visit Zhuge Jingming’s clinic to get some medicine.”

Suggesting he recover at the old house surprised Mu Chengxi, as they hadn’t discussed this. He frowned at Wen Xin, dissatisfied with her decision.

Wen Xin rubbed her aching temples. She hadn’t slept well on the plane, and her head hurt.

“Go home first. I’ll join you after getting the medicine, and we’ll talk then.”

Seeing Wen Xin wasn’t feeling well, Mu Chengxi relaxed his frown and reluctantly nodded.

“Alright, let Mu Bei go with you. His car is parked at the airport. He’ll take you to your errands, and I’ll go home with my sister.”

“Okay.” Wen Xin agreed, placing her cold hand on Mu Chengxi’s cheek and giving him a quick kiss before standing up.

“Sister, I have to go. Take Chengxi home. I’ll be back later.”

With nightfall outside, Mu Chengxu worried, “Isn’t it too late to visit Zhuge Jingming’s clinic? Why not wait until tomorrow?”

“It’s fine, sister. The doctor is expecting me. I have things to do tomorrow. I’ll be back soon.” Wen Xin waved to Mu Chengxu and Mu Chengxi before quickly leaving the café.

After she left, Mu Chengxu scrutinized Mu Chengxi, still doubting his earlier explanation. She suspected he was protecting Wen Xin.

“Did you get hurt protecting Wen Xin?”

Mu Chengxi, watching Wen Xin leave, got into the car and looked back at Mu Chengxu nonchalantly.

“Who do you think looks more like they’ve been through a lot, me or her? I was ambushed on a plane, and Wen Xin rescued me. I nearly lost my life.”

Mu Chengxi never lied to Mu Chengxu. He hadn’t told anyone about what happened in Continent F except Mu Chengxu, so he had no reason to lie to her.

Mu Chengxu fell silent, realizing the Mu family owed Wen Xin a huge debt this time.

“Your appearance back home will scare Grandma. Everyone will come to see what happened.”

Mu Chengxu chuckled, finding it hard to believe Mu Chengxi got into such a mess.

“I didn’t want to come back. I wanted to recover at my apartment and return home when I could walk again. Grandma’s used to my absences.”

“However, I can’t ignore Wen Xin’s orders. Maybe you should call her and explain. Say you’re worried about scaring Grandma.”
