Chapter 958: Chapter 956: Accidental Exposure of Wen Xin’s Identity
Looking at Wen Yunuo’s state, Wen Xin narrowed her eyes in satisfaction, “I’ve done what I promised you, and I expect you to keep your word. Before the Elders Guild starts, I’ll return to Independent State. I hope to see your figure there.”
Wen Xin sat lazily in the chair, seemingly tired as time passed; indeed, today had been a very busy day.
Wen Yunuo straightened her clothes, her eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at Wen Xin with a candid expression, “You can be completely at ease about this. I’ll definitely do what I promised you, no matter what, my people and I will be there to lend you a hand.”
After Wen Xin administered the antidote to him, he could be certain that he was completely free from the Old Fox’s control. This was the beginning of his rebirth.
“Miss Ailin, there is an important guest in our president’s office…”
“Move aside, I have something important to ask Wen Yunuo. Why did you agree to cooperate with me and then go back on your word?”
Ailin forcefully pushed aside the assistant blocking the door and stormed right into Wen Yunuo’s office.
When Ailin entered Wen Yunuo’s office, she saw Wen Xin lounging in the chair, and her whole body stiffened in place.
“Alliance Master? You… what are you doing here?”
The moment Ailin saw Wen Xin, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. She had never expected Wen Xin to be there. If she had known Wen Xin was there, she wouldn’t have entered even if someone was dragging her in.
Wen Xin, looking at the awkward Ailin standing by the door, gently raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly, “Didn’t expect to meet here!”
Hearing Wen Xin’s words, Ailin immediately knelt on one knee, showing respect with her gesture.
“Rise,” Wen Xin said to Ailin in an indifferent tone. She stood up from her chair, walked over to Ailin, and gently patted her shoulder, lowering her voice to remind her, “Watch your mouth.”
Having said that, Wen Xin grabbed her backpack and left Wen Yunuo’s office without looking back.
Watching Wen Xin’s departing figure, Ailin suddenly felt weak in the legs and sat down on the floor. She touched her chest, feeling her heart pounding wildly, as if trying to leap out.
Wen Yunnuo had been puzzled ever since he heard Ailin’s address to Wen Xin, and seeing Ailin’s current actions only deepened his confusion. He walked over to Ailin’s side, took her hand, and pulled her up from the floor. Then, he wrapped his arms around Ailin and sat her down on the sofa in the resting area.
“What’s going on? Do you know Wen Xin? What does ‘Alliance Master’ mean?”
Wen Yunuo looked at Ailin with puzzlement, extremely curious about Wen Xin’s identity. He had investigated Wen Xin before, but had come up with nothing.
Ailin looked at Wen Yunuo, who seemed eager to know the answer, and sighed helplessly. Then she shook her head.
“I can’t say. She just warned me, told me not to talk carelessly…”
Ailin was normally outspoken, but she genuinely dared not utter a word under Wen Xin’s authority, knowing that if she misspoke, not only might her own life be at risk, but her family could also be implicated.
Seeing Ailin, who feared nothing in the world except for Mu Chengxi, showing such an expression, Wen Yunuo’s brows involuntarily furrowed. She could clearly tell that Ailin’s fear of Wen Xin far surpassed that of Mu Chengxi.
He found himself wondering just how formidable this couple could be to intimidate Ailin so much; their combined power must be terrifying.
“If that’s the case, then I won’t press you any further. When you’re ready to talk, you can tell me. I’m willing to wait until you want to speak.”
Wen Yunuo’s gaze softened unknowingly as he looked at Ailin. Previously, he worried that his physical condition wouldn’t allow him to offer a girl a future, but now, he felt better, he felt he could start a new life…
Ailin was still pondering why Wen Xin would be here and completely missed Wen Yunuo’s affectionate stare. After hesitating for a while with her head down, she looked up at Wen Yunuo.
“That… Alliance… Why is Wen Xin here? What’s your relationship with her? Given that Wen Xin has a tough personality, for her to appear here so relaxed, you must have a significant relationship.”
Listening to Ailin’s words, Wen Yunuo nodded in agreement, showing that Ailin hadn’t misspoken.
“Indeed, we are quite close. Wen Xin is the ruler of Independent State, the little princess of Independent State, and also my sister, the eldest daughter of the Wen family!”
Wen Yunuo genuinely liked Ailin, so he was being sincere and didn’t conceal anything about Wen Xin’s identity, telling Ailin the truth.
When Ailin heard about Wen Xin’s identity, she was completely taken aback. She never expected Wen Xin to have such a status; it was truly unexpected.
She had heard in the Chou League about how Wen Xin has stepped by step discarded her identity as the Young Alliance Leader to rise to her current position. Although many people were dissatisfied, they couldn’t deny Wen Xin’s impressive capabilities.
“She’s your sister? And the little princess of Independent State, the ruler? That’s amazing! But…”
Ailin thought about Wen Xin’s identity but still couldn’t understand why Wen Xin would go to the Chou League to become the Alliance Master. Wasn’t living well in Independent State enough? Why endure so much hardship?
Wen Yunnuo saw Ailin’s rare moment of shedding her clever facade, looking confused and naive, and found her incredibly cute.
Watching Ailin, Wen Yunnuo suddenly thought about her infatuation with Mu Chengxi, and it seemed she hadn’t given up on Mu Chengxi even after coming to Beijing this time.
Suddenly, Wen Yunuo cupped Ailin’s cheeks with both hands, forcing her to look at him.
“Are you still not over Mu Chengxi?”
Upon hearing Wen Yunnuo’s question, Ailin was caught off guard; she couldn’t understand why Wen Yunuo would bring up Mu Chengxi at this moment.
However, a figure suddenly flashed in her mind, merging with the image of the girl next to Mu Chengxi in her memory.
“Holy shit, Wen Yunuo, you’re not hinting to me that the girl with Mu Chengxi is the Alliance… is Wen Xin, right? That’s terrifying!”
Ailin wrapped her hands around Wen Yunuo’s, seeking confirmation of her guess. Although she had long lost any inappropriate thoughts about Mu Chengxi, it didn’t mean her past foolish actions couldn’t be brought back to haunt her…
Wen Yunnuo, seeing Ailin’s nervous demeanor, allowed a slight smile to play on his lips before nodding, “Yes, Mu Chengxi’s fiancée is indeed Wen Xin; the two are already engaged…”
