Chapter 48 I Won’t Do That Anymore
When Lin Mo looked at Wenxi, whom Mu Yansen was talking about, his eyes were gentle and shining. He now admired Wenxi more and more. So far, she was the only person who made Mu Yansen have such feelings and expressions.
Who is Mu Yansen? He's the president of the Mu Group. He's had a smooth life since childhood, boasting exceptional intelligence and handsome looks. He's known for attracting any woman he wants. But he's also arrogant, single-mindedly focused on his studies and, later, the company.
Even towards Bai Chuxian, he was indifferent. It was just that his group of brothers felt sorry for Bai Chuxian for tormenting him, but when they thought about it, Mu Yansen seemed to have never taken those things to heart.
"Yan Sen, why did you indulge Bai Chuxian so much in the past? You obviously didn't like her."
"She saved me."
Lin Mo remembered that Yansen was kidnapped when he was a child and later escaped. He only met Mu Yansen later, so he was not very clear about what happened before.
"Is that the time you were kidnapped?"
"Well, I escaped on my own, but due to injuries and not having eaten for a few days, I fainted on the side of the road. It was Chu Xian who saved me. If she hadn't saved me, I might have been caught by the people who caught up with me, and I wouldn't be standing here alive."
Lin Mo was puzzled. "Didn't you say you were kidnapped to the outskirts of the Lin family? Why is Bai Chuxian there?"
"She was driving by with her dad and she got out of the car to relieve herself. She found me on the side of the road and carried me back to the car."
He remembered that he fainted on a small path and there was no trace of him. Fortunately, Chu Xian found him.
"Bai Chuxian was only ten years old at that time. She was quite impressive to be able to carry a fourteen-year-old like you on her back!"
Lin Mo found it hard to imagine that someone like Bai Chuxian would have the courage to save a stranger, especially since she was still very young at that time.
"Well, so over the years, I am very grateful to Chu Xian. As long as it is within my acceptable range, I can indulge her."
"Even if you let her be your girlfriend? Even if you marry her?"
"I used to think it didn't matter who I married, because there wasn't anyone I was attracted to. Since she wants marriage, then I'll give it to her."
"I'm so glad that Bai Chuxian was able to act and run away on her own. Otherwise, you would have fallen into her hands and would never have had the chance to meet someone you like."
"Well, I was too rash at first!"
Lin Mo was speechless at his friend's previous indifference towards his lifelong affairs. Even a playboy like him knew that marriage was not to be taken lightly.
"Yan Sen, you are somewhat fond of your sister-in-law now. You can't treat Bai Chuxian the same way as before. Which woman can tolerate her husband and his ex-girlfriend being unclear and lingering? Besides, you have already repaid Bai Chuxian for saving your life. Don't add any more burdens to yourself. If Bai Chuxian brings up the life-saving grace again, she will be asking for more."
"Well, I won't do that again. I'll explain it to Chu Xian."
"I find that you are quite sensible now. It's different when you have a woman you like."
Mu Yansen glanced at him, "What about you? Still playing around in the world? Aren't you planning on finding a reliable woman to settle down with?"
"I haven't had enough fun yet. I don't want to step into the grave of marriage."
"Just keep playing and see which woman takes you in."
"That woman hasn't been born yet."
When Wenxi arrived at the Taekwondo gym, he sent a message to Chen Fei, asking him to come later, as he had been very tired these past two days.
He was very busy yesterday and hadn't cleaned up yet. Wenxi cleaned the classroom, disinfected it, and cleared the props.
Bai Chuxian also saw the online post, but she didn't pay much attention to it at first. However, when she saw Wenxi's name, she immediately took a screenshot. When she searched again later, the post was gone.
At first she was not sure if it was the Wenxi she knew, but later all the posts disappeared. Who else could do it so cleanly except Mu Yansen? That girl was really the woman she hated the most.
She bought a lot of gifts and went to the Mu family's old house early in the morning.
The old man of the Mu family and Mu Lianshan were polite because she had saved Mu Yansen, and asked the servants to serve her tea, but Song Lixin simply ignored her.
Bai Chuxian pretended not to see Song Lixin's cold face and said with a smile: "Grandpa, uncle, and aunt, how are you these days? I just returned to China and was busy with the art exhibition. I couldn't come to visit earlier. I hope you can forgive me!"
Mu Lianshan smiled and said, "It's okay. It's good for you young people to be busy."
The few of them chatted for a few more words. Bai Chuxian clearly felt that the Mu family did not welcome her. She was angry, but she tried hard not to show it.
Song Lixin deliberately called Aunt Li from the kitchen over and said, "Aunt Li, go make some black chicken soup. I'll take it to Wenxi and Yansen later to nourish them and help them give birth to a lovely granddaughter."
"Okay, ma'am, I'll get ready right away."
Bai Chuxian turned pale instantly. She didn't expect Song Lixin to accept a woman of Wenxi's background. She had been with Brother Yansen for so many years. Except for being nice to her at the beginning, Song Lixin had become more and more displeased with her in recent years and had never treated her well.
This difference made Bai Chuxian hate Wenxi even more.
"Auntie, I saw a post online yesterday about a girl being bullied by her classmates. There were photos of the girl without clothes, covered in wounds. The post went viral, but it's been deleted now. Did you know that the girl's name is also Wenxi, the same as Brother Yansen's wife's? Isn't that a coincidence?"
Song Lixin, Mu Lianshan and the old man all looked unhappy.
Song Lixin said coldly: "Bai Chuxian, I know you are still obsessed with Yansen, but he is already married. Wenxi is the daughter-in-law recognized by our family. You can't slander her. Although you saved Yansen, we have been good to you over the years and have paid back what we owed. Now that Yansen is married, you should stop and don't do such meaningless things."
Bai Chuxian's face froze, but she still handed the screenshot of the post to Song Lixin without giving up. Song Lixin just glanced at it and then looked away.
"This girl is so pitiful, but she's not my daughter-in-law, Wenxi. You've been worrying about her for nothing. You young people should have some compassion. This child is already so pitiful, and you're still spreading this kind of post everywhere."
Bai Chuxian's face was a little embarrassed. "Auntie, I didn't spread it. I just saw that this girl's name was the same as Wenxi's, and I was a little worried, so I showed it to you. I have no ill intentions."
"Who knows if there's any malicious intent? Okay, we're going to have lunch, but we didn't know we had guests coming, so we didn't prepare lunch for you. So, you..."
Bai Chuxian was so angry that she stood up and walked out.
She originally wanted to completely humiliate Wenxi in the Mu family, but she didn't expect Song Lixin to not believe it at all and even drove her away. What kind of magic potion did Wenxi feed them to make the Mu family like her so much and protect her?
