A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce

Chapter 778: Chapter 777: A Scar in the Heart, Afraid to Face…
“Um… I want to go out for a meal with my classmates… and then I’ll go shopping on my own later.”

Xiao Mi kept her head down, not daring to look into Wen Xin’s eyes. She always felt that Wen Xin’s eyes possessed an indescribable deterrent power that made her quite fearful.

Wen Xin paused her game and put it in her pocket, half-squinting at Xiao Mi, “Are you scared of me?”

“Not scared, just uncomfortable.” Xiao Mi slowly raised her head to look at Wen Xin; this was the first time she had ever looked Wen Xin in the eye.

At this moment, Xiao Mi still didn’t understand why Wen Xin was so kind to her.

Especially when Wen Xin declared in front of everyone that she was his sister, she became even more perplexed. She did not understand why Wen Xin would clarify their relationship like that.

Seeing the conflicted expression on Xiao Mi’s face, Wen Xin took a bank card out of her backpack and placed it in front of Xiao Mi.

“Since you want to go out to eat with your friends, go ahead. Make sure to buy all the personal items you need, and then get a new bank card and send me the number.”

“I… I… I have money, I don’t need yours…”

Looking at the bank card Wen Xin had put in front of her, Xiao Mi unconsciously stepped back. She really didn’t want to, and didn’t dare to, accept the things Wen Xin gave her.

“Just take it, and from now on I will take care of you. You don’t need anything else, just focus on your studies.”

Wen Xin took Xiao Mi’s hand, placing the bank card in the palm of her hand, “The PIN for the card is 123456.”

Xiao Mi clenched the bank card in her hand, looking at Wen Xin with a bewildered face, unable to comprehend Wen Xin’s words, “I’ll support you.”

“Why are you so good to me? We’ve only met and there’s no reason for you to be this kind to me…”

Xiao Mi looked at Wen Xin uncertainly, feeling that Wen Xin being kind to her was very strange.

Furthermore, based on Wen Xin’s reputation, she wasn’t known to be a helpful person, which made her kindness even stranger.

“You’ll know the reason eventually!” Wen Xin looked up and saw a few young kids not far away, knowing without guessing that they were waiting for Xiao Mi.

Wen Xin gently nodded her chin, “Your classmates are waiting for you. You should go.”

Xiao Mi followed Wen Xin’s gaze, turned her head, and waved to her classmates waiting for her, then looked back at Wen Xin.

“Um… I’ll be going then, and about the card… thank you!”

“Hmm, just make sure you give me your new card number and phone number once you’ve got them set up.” Wen Xin looked at Xiao Mi with a faint gaze, waved her off, and let Xiao Mi leave first.

After watching Xiao Mi leave, Wen Xin took out her phone from her pocket, looked at the game interface on it, slightly squinted her attractive eyes, then closed the app.

After sitting in the hallway for around five minutes, Wen Xin dialed Mu Chengxi’s phone. It took three rings before it was answered, which surprised Wen Xin since Mu Chengxi had always picked up her calls on the first ring before.

“Miss Wen, Master Xi is in a meeting… Is there something you need?”

The voice on the other end was Mu Bei’s, which made Wen Xin slightly startle.

“Where is your Master Xi right now? What meeting is he having at this hour?”

“Master Xi is at the physics research institute. Miss Wen, are you coming over? The meeting might go on for another hour or so.”

Mu Bei spoke gently and patiently in response to Wen Xin’s queries, his impression of her being that she wouldn’t call Mu Chengxi unless there was a matter.

“Hmm, I’ll go look for him,” she said.

Suddenly, Wen Xin wanted to visit the place where she had grown up, although it had long since changed, and the people there were not the same. Nevertheless, there were probably many waiting for her to come back for a visit.

Wen Xin walked to the entrance of Jingda University and squatted by the roadside, waiting for a taxi.

Just then, a black Volkswagen SUV stopped in front of Wen Xin. Tang Ming, in the driver’s seat, quickly got out, looking worriedly at Wen Xin squatting by the roadside.

“Miss, are you feeling unwell? I can take you to the hospital…”

Wen Xin looked at the panicked expression on Tang Ming’s face, slowly stood up, and shook her head. “I’m fine, I’m just waiting for a car here. You go ahead with whatever you need to do.”

Tang Ming, seeing that Wen Xin indeed did not seem unwell but hearing that she was waiting for a car, still patiently asked her another question.

“Miss, are you waiting for Master Xi to come pick you up?”

“No, I’m waiting for a taxi to go find him. He’s in a meeting at the lab.”

Wen Xin did not pay attention to Tang Ming’s expression. Her gaze turned to the distance, trying to spot a taxi.

“Miss, this is a waste of resources, isn’t it? Come on, get in the car, and let me take you to the lab. I’m headed there myself.”

Wen Xin, seeing Tang Ming opening the car door, smiled gently. How had she not thought that Tang Ming might also be going to the lab? It really was a waste of time.

Wen Xin, carrying her backpack, quickly got into the car, and Tang Ming did not waste time either, driving off swiftly.

On the way to the research institute, Wen Xin’s mind was filled with images of her childhood at the institute, and she did not know why these images emerged just then.

…

The car stopped in the underground parking of the lab, and Tang Ming opened the car door near Wen Xin, calling out gently to Wen Xin, who seemed lost in her thoughts.

“Miss… Miss…”

“Miss… Miss.”

“Miss… Miss…”

“Huh? What’s up? Are we here?” Wen Xin, slightly bewildered, turned her head to look at Tang Ming. She had not heard him calling her, only the last call.

“Yes, we are here. We can go up now,” Tang Ming said as he supported Wen Xin’s car door, helping her out of the car. He intended to take her backpack, but Wen Xin deftly dodged.

“Thank you, but no need, I can carry it myself.”

Wen Xin hopped out of the car, stood still, and looked at Tang Ming, waiting for him to lead her upstairs. It took her a while to come over, as getting inside this highly secure place was not an easy feat.

Tang Ming took an ID card out of the car’s drawer, hung it around his neck, locked the car, and turned to Wen Xin.

“Miss, follow me this way. Are you going straight to Master Xi, or would you like to wander around the different floors? I can take you around.”

Wen Xin had mentally prepared herself all the way, but once she arrived, her thoughts were still a bit scattered. Standing here took a lot of courage, and seeing those people… she really did not have the mental preparation for it.

“Forget it, let’s first go see Mu Chengxi. I’m a bit hungry. Once he’s free, I’d like to go eat.”

Wen Xin casually made an excuse, wanting to avoid the situation, but Tang Ming did not give her the chance to refuse.
