Old Madam Mu received Wen Xin’s affirmative answer and was extremely excited; she had waited for this moment.
She had considered the possibility that Wen Xin might refuse, or that Wen Xin might not want to rush things.
But at the instant she heard Wen Xin agree, she was truly happy. Being able to see Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi together in her lifetime was something thrilling for her.
“Then I will call your mother-in-law and tell her about this, so she can come back and help me make arrangements,” she said.
As Old Madam Mu tried to stand up, she was stopped by Wen Xin, who supported Old Madam Mu’s arm with one hand and sighed helplessly.
“Grandma, you still have needles in you; there’s no need to hurry. You can wait another ten minutes and then we can remove the golden needles.”
Wen Xin supported the Old Madam, made sure she was comfortable, and adjusted the position of the acupuncture needles before sitting down in the chair opposite to Old Madam Mu.
Looking at Wen Xin, Old Madam Mu quietly resolved in her heart that no matter how capable Wen Xin was, she would offer her a form of protection, at least ensuring that Wen Xin could live without concerns in Beijing.
Wen Xin looked down at her phone in the full interval, her mind somewhat in disarray. She had absolutely no news about Tan Xingyue at the moment, which made her anxious about what might be happening on Tan Xingyue’s end.
The ten minutes passed as Wen Xin and Old Madam Mu sat there with their own thoughts.
After a bit more than ten minutes, Wen Xin removed the golden needles from the Old Madam, who immediately rushed to make a call. Wen Xin left the old residence to look for Mu Bei, who was waiting outside.
Coming out of the old residence, Wen Xin saw a servant holding a bag of things, seemingly waiting for transport.
The servant promptly greeted Wen Xin with respect as he saw her, “Miss Wen.”

“Are you waiting for a car? Where are you going?” she asked.
Originally, Wen Xin hadn’t planned to pay attention to the servant and was going to leave, but noticing the items he was holding, she guessed the servant was likely on his way to see Butler Wen, so she asked an extra question.
“To answer Miss Wen, I am prepared to deliver some items to the butler, but since all the cars from the house are not available, I am waiting here for a while,” the servant replied.
The servant didn’t interact much with Wen Xin; he had only heard good things about her, but deep down, he still harbored a slight fear of her.
“Get in the car, there’s no knowing how long you’ll have to wait. Let Mu Bei give you a ride since it’s on the way,” Wen Xin offered.
Saying so, Wen Xin directly opened the car door, sat in herself, and paid no further attention to the servant who stood rooted to the spot.
Mu Bei stood aside and gently nudged the servant from behind, “Aren’t you getting in quickly? Or do you want to stand here with those gifts waiting?”
“Thank you, Miss Wen, thank you, Mr. Mu Bei,” the servant quickly opened the passenger door and got into the car at Mu Bei’s urging.
The moment the servant got in the car, he felt the strong aura inside and sat anxiously in the passenger seat, as if he was an elementary school student in class, tense and not daring to move.
After putting the items in the trunk, Mu Bei opened the car door, saw the situation, and unconsciously chuckled, patting the servant’s shoulder.
“No need to be so tense. Buckle up; we’re about to leave,” Mu Bei reassured him.
Upon hearing Mu Bei’s teasing, Wen Xin looked up at the anxious servant, quickly withdrew her gaze, and began to wonder if she really was that intimidating.
After escorting the servant to the hospital entrance, Wen Xin happened to see Qian Meng stepping out of the hospital. Her beautiful eyes unconsciously narrowed slightly, surprised to see Qian Meng there.
As Wen Xin was silently contemplating, a faint knocking sound on the car window came from outside. Lowering the window, she saw Qian Meng looking at her with a sunny expression.
“Little princess, are you here to join in on the excitement too? Have you heard?”
Qian Meng’s abrupt words caused Wen Xin to unconsciously furrow her brows, completely clueless as to what he was talking about.
“What are you doing at the hospital?” Wen Xin involuntarily leaned back a bit, her gaze cold as she looked at Qian Meng, having no idea what he was talking about.
“You don’t know? Old Master Jiang passed away last night. I am here on behalf of my grandfather to check on things, the Jiang family seems to be in poor spirits.”
Hearing the news of Old Master Jiang’s death, Wen Xin was somewhat surprised. If she remembered correctly, the doctor who treated Old Master Jiang came from the Independent State, and logically, Jiang shouldn’t have passed away so quickly, right?
“You’re surprised too, huh? I didn’t expect it either. My grandfather said when they visited him in the hospital a couple of days ago, he had already regained consciousness. It’s unclear why he suddenly passed away.”
Qian Meng’s tone carried no regret, he just found it unbelievable, his mood one of a spectator seeking thrill more than anything else.
Listening to Qian Meng’s words, Wen Xin just lightly raised her eyebrows, “I’m not interested in the Jiang family’s affairs. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving…”
After speaking, Wen Xin slowly rolled up the car window, completely disregarding whether Qian Meng still had more to say.
As the car slowly drove away, Wen Xin picked up the mobile phone on the seat, dialing Mu Chengxi’s number.
At that moment, Mu Chengxi was in a meeting. Seeing the call from Wen Xin, his eyes flashed with surprise, wondering what Wen Xin might need at this time.
“What’s the matter? Are you still at grandma’s courtyard?”
“No, I’ve left with Mu Bei. Have you heard about Old Man Jiang’s death?”
“Yes, I’m dealing with the trouble his death has caused. If you’re not at grandma’s courtyard, where are you going? Are you out with Mu Bei?”
Mu Chengxi knew Wen Xin wouldn’t be out alone. He walked out of the study and didn’t see Mu Bei anywhere, so he could guess that Wen Xin had probably left with Mu Bei.
“Yes, I took Mu Bei’s car. Just happened to run into a servant preparing to deliver something to Butler Wen at the main house entrance, so I gave him a ride to the hospital. I met Qian Meng at the hospital entrance. He was the one who told me about Old Man Jiang. It seems many people are paying attention to this.”
Wen Xin briefly explained to Mu Chengxi why she left the old house and how she learned of Old Man Jiang’s passing.
“I also found out early this morning that Old Jiang had died. I’ve got some things to handle here. I’ll call you back once I’m done. Be careful when you’re out on your errands, and watch your hand.”
Mu Chengxi took a quick glance at the people waiting for him to resume the meeting, his voice gentle as he informed Wen Xin of his ongoing tasks.
“Alright, then I’ll go check with Wen Yunuo at Kunshan Group first. I need to understand some things, and I’ll talk to you about it when I get back.”
Having said that, Wen Xin hung up the phone, tapping her knee gently with the mobile phone. She had too many questions about the Independent State and external power struggles she wanted to ask Wen Yunuo, like about the Shadow Alliance.
