Before Chu Yunxuan could finish her words, Wen Xin’s phone vibrated again. Taking a deep breath, Wen Xin answered Alfredo’s call.

“What’s up?”

“Of course there’s something. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be calling you. Has Mu Chengxi gone missing recently?”

Alfredo chuckled lightly, hearing Wen Xin’s composed tone. He hadn’t expected Wen Xin to be so calm in this situation. Perhaps she wasn’t as fond of Mu Chengxi as he had thought.

“Isn’t he on a business trip? Where did you hear such unreliable news?”

Wen Xin lounged lazily on the sofa, gripping the armrest tightly. Deep down, she had a hunch that Alfredo knew where Mu Chengxi was.

“Is that really the case? Wen Xin, you don’t have to pretend with me. You know, all it takes is a word from you, and I’ll do anything for you.”

Alfredo hadn’t anticipated such a reaction from Wen Xin. He wasn’t sure if he had misunderstood the situation or if Wen Xin was genuinely unaware. Her nonchalant tone felt off.

“Are you hoping for something to happen to Mu Chengxi? I can tell you, bury that hope deep within you. Mu Chengxi will be fine! The ones in trouble will be those who don’t know their place.”

Wen Xin’s tone was light, devoid of anger, and almost playful.

Alfredo was taken aback by Wen Xin’s tone. He frowned and looked at the bald man beside him, wanting to confirm if the person was indeed Mu Chengxi.

The bald man pulled out his phone and showed Alfredo a photo sent by the doctor, confirming that the man was indeed Mu Chengxi.

Seeing the photo, Alfredo’s uncertainty vanished. He straightened his casual attire and spoke calmly.

“You don’t have to answer me so quickly. You can ask around. Maybe Mu Chengxi’s situation isn’t what you think it is.”

“Wen Xin, you know I only want you. Once you find out, we can discuss terms. Don’t say I didn’t warn you…”

Without waiting for Wen Xin’s response, Alfredo hung up.

Chu Yunxuan, watching Wen Xin, expected her to get angry. But instead, Wen Xin smiled, a sense of relief in her expression.

Chu Yunxuan, worried, grabbed Wen Xin’s wrist and sat beside her. “Sweetheart, don’t scare me. Whatever it is, we’ll solve it together. There’s no need to…”

“I’m happy. Alfredo’s confident tone means he knows where Mu Chengxi is. We don’t need to search aimlessly anymore. We just need to find Alfredo.”

As she spoke, Wen Xin pulled out her heavy phone and began tracking Alfredo’s location. Within five minutes, she had pinpointed it. Alfredo was still at home, unafraid of her retaliation.

“Let’s head to Zeus Apartments.”

Standing up, Wen Xin addressed the man who had just brought her the news, her tone cold and authoritative. “Inform Moore to meet me at Zeus Apartments. Gather twelve men and prepare to leave. We have a big job to do.”

The man hesitated, looking at Wen Xin’s alluring face, but quickly nodded and left the room to follow her orders. He called Moore and arranged the cars and men.

Within five minutes, everything was ready. Moore called Wen Xin, confirming he would meet them near Zeus Apartments.

“Let’s go. We’ll make him lead us to Mu Chengxi.”

Wen Xin’s face lit up with a smile, her earlier desperation gone. Everything seemed to be falling into place.

Chu Yunxuan and Wales followed Wen Xin. Since discovering Wen Xin’s true identity, Wales had grown more respectful, avoiding even looking at her directly. Her noble status had become his new belief.

In the car, Wen Xin quickly messaged Bella, “Prepare three medium-power bombs. Arm them in twenty minutes. No matter what, follow my instructions. My survival depends on your speed!”

Her serious message startled Bella awake from sleep. Bella immediately called Wen Xin.

Wen Xin didn’t intend to answer but realized some things might be unclear in a text. So she answered the call.

Before Wen Xin could speak, Bella’s anxious voice came through. “What happened, Master Drunk? Why so serious? Who upset you? If you need, I can take care of them for you.”

Bella’s voice was thick with drowsiness, sounding almost comical.

“No need. Just handle what I asked. Wait for my instructions.” Wen Xin watched the speeding car, quickly ending the call.

After the call, Wen Xin pulled a gun from her bag. Those around her were startled. They hadn’t known Wen Xin had such a weapon.

Loading bullets into the magazine, Wen Xin ignored the stares, her eyes filled with determination.

“Sweetheart, calm down. Where did you get such a powerful gun?”

Chu Yunxuan didn’t know about Wen Xin’s encounter with Lucas and the weapons she had taken from him. She had never seen this gun before.

“This gun is from the Independent State’s research institute, supplied to the Shadow Alliance. I had wondered who backed the Shadow Alliance. Now, I have a chance to find out who controls the research institute.”

Wen Xin had considered this before but hadn’t wanted to confront it directly. Now that they had come to her, she wouldn’t hold back. If she found out they were involved in capturing Mu Chengxi, there would be no mercy.

After loading the gun, Wen Xin concealed the heavy weapon under her clothes and hung her bag on her chest.

The bag contained her most precious external medications and rarely used gold needles.

She had considered many scenarios. Even if Mu Chengxi were critically injured, she wouldn’t let him die in her hands. No one could take away the person she wanted to keep.
