Chapter 546: Tacit Conversations
It was time to use the tactic of retreating in order to advance.
Yun Xi stood up to leave. As soon as she stood up, the woman who had been hesitating suddenly broke down.
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”
Seeing that Yun Xi was going to go and ask someone else, the woman decided to give in. She didn’t want to miss the opportunity Yun Xi had offered her.
All the other kidnappers who had been captured cursed at the woman. Yun Xi found their curses annoying, and she turned to look at Mu Feichi.
The two of them immediately came to a tacit understanding.
Mu Feichi waved his hand, and the Mu Group’s people immediately cleared the scene by taking all the other kidnappers out of the room.
“Okay, no one will bother us anymore. Spill the beans!”
“Actually…actually, I don’t know exactly who the other party is. I only know that she’s a woman. When the boss talked to her on the phone, I heard a little bit of their conversation. It sounded like the woman knew Young Marshal Mu…”
The woman told them all about her boss’s conversations that she had heard. When they heard that Young Marshal Mu had allegedly been the sweetheart of this mysterious woman, Yun Xi and Mu Feichi looked at each other.
Both of them seemed to have come to the same conclusion.
Very well. Although Han Wanling wasn’t even in the country, she was still meddling in domestic affairs.
Yun Xi knew her limits. Even if she absolutely knew that it was Han Wanling’s doing, she was powerless to do anything about it.
But Mu Feichi was different. When he realized that it had probably been Han Wanling who had arranged the kidnapping of Yun Xi, the solemn look on his face suddenly made the temperature in the room feel as if it had dropped to the freezing point.
It had already been cold in there, so Yun Xi felt even colder now, and she shivered.
Mu Feichi glanced at her, realizing that she was feeling extremely cold, and he quickly took off his jacket and put it over her shoulders.
“Let’s go! Let my men take care of the rest.”
“You…didn’t you say you’d let me go?”
Seeing that Yun Xi was about to leave, yet had showed no intention of letting her go, the woman got immediately anxious.
“Yes!” Yun Xi nodded with a sincere expression. “I promised to let you go, but he…”
Yun Xi pointed to Mu Feichi, and, once again with tacit understanding, the man cooperated by answering, “But I didn’t agree.”
Looking innocently at the woman in front of her whose hopes had been shattered, Yun Xi shrugged helplessly. “I have no choice. He won’t listen to me. I want to let you go, but it’s a pity he won’t. So don’t use me to threaten Young Marshal Mu in the future. It’s useless.”
As soon as she’d finished speaking, Mu Feichi looked over at her, but Yun Xi blinked and pretended that she didn’t notice.
As they were about to leave the room, Feng Yang stopped Mu Feichi.
“Young Marshal Mu, I have something to tell you.” Not planning to say it in front of her, Feng Yang glanced at Yun Xi.
Yun Xi was very sensible. She readjusted her clothes and stomped her feet. “I’m going to go to the car and wait. I’m freezing to death.”
Mu Feichi nodded, then turned to Li Zilan and said, “Go find her some clean, dry clothes and let her change in the car.”
The weather was cold, so if she really got frostbite and fell ill, how would he be able to exist in the future?
Li Zilan agreed and turned around and walked out of the room.
There were only two people left in the huge room now. Momentarily feeling crestfallen, Feng Yang silently watched the little figure rushing out to the car.
As soon as Mu Feichi turned his head, he saw Feng Yang’s sad expression. He immediately became jealous, and he turned around to block his sight of Yun Xi.
“What do you want to say?”
“The news I’ve received is that Crocodile recently had a batch of trades in M City. He is now escaping from the country. I don’t know if he’ll show up in M City or not.”
Mu Feichi didn’t seem to expect that he would have told him this information, and he snorted arrogantly, “I will have people operate surveillance in M City. Don’t you get involved in these sorts of affairs. Otherwise, your dad will have to come look for me to help.”
“This is my business, so don’t worry about me.”
Too lazy to talk any more nonsense with him, Mu Feichi snorted lightly, turned around, and walked straight out of the room.
