Chapter 267: 266: How Can I Scheme Against You if You Guess it Right? (3rd Update)
Mu Cidian had just reached the entrance to the hall when he heard Xin Zaozao’s deep and poignant voice, which was impossible to ignore.
He listened in silence.
Wan Quan quickly walked towards Xin Zaozao. Xin Zaozao’s voice was loud, “Nie Feng!”
She was aware of all Wan Quan’s movements.
Wan Quan didn’t stop because Xin Zaozao had called her bodyguard; she wanted to rush over and slap Xin Zaozao.
In that moment, a whirlwind of quick steps suddenly blocked Xin Zaozao’s path.
Mu Cidian grabbed Wan Quan’s hand, restraining her body.
“Let go of me! Mu Cidian, let me go, I’m going to kill this woman!” Wan Quan roared in fury.
Xin Zaozao stepped closer to Wan Quan.
At that moment, Nie Feng had already rapidly made his way to Xin Zaozao’s side.
Wan Quan glared at Xin Zaozao with bloodshot eyes, “Bitch, one day I will rip your mouth to shreds…”
“Slap!” Xin Zaozao landed a direct slap on her face.
Wan Quan was left stunned by the slap.
She couldn’t believe that Xin Zaozao had dared to slap her, had dared to treat her this way!
She was going to kill this woman, kill this woman!
However, the next second, Xin Zaozao landed another slap, with a resounding “slap”, slapped her hard again.
Since Wan Quan was being restrained by Mu Cidian, she had to endure Xin Zaozao’s two slaps.
At that moment, Wan Quan•s face began to swell, clearly seen.
“Mu Cidian, Mu Cidian, let me go!” Wan Quan cried out.
She was actually slapped by Xin Zaozao, she was actually hit by Xin Zaozao!
She was going to kill her!
Wan Quan’s agitation didn’t make Mu Cidian let go, he still stood in front of Xin Zaozao, still kept his mother immobilized, and then at that moment, the enraged Wan Quan, bit hard onto Mu Cidian’s hand.
Mu Cidian frowned, but didn’t let go.
Xin Zaozao just watched the mother-son duo’s self-destruction, whether it was acting or real, it would be best if one of them died!
She said, “Since I received a slap today, I slapped you twice in return! Any hardship you put me through in the future, I will return it to you two-fold!”
After saying that, she turned around coldly.
Step by step like a victor, she walked away.
Why?
Why could Xin Zaozao act so high and mighty?
Today, she was the victor, she was the one who made Xin Zaozao humiliated, made Xin Zaozao driven out by the Ji Family, and she should be the one who should be gloating!
Wan Quan vented her madness, using all her strength on Mu Cidian’s hand.
When she finally calmed down, she only felt a taste of blood in her mouth.
She abruptly let go.
On Mu Cidian’s hand were distinct tooth marks, bloody and swollen.
Wan Quan felt a pang of heartache for a moment, but when she thought of what Mu Cidian had done, her face turned cold again, she pushed Mu Cidian away with all her strength.
This time, Mu Cidian let her go.
“Aren’t you not coming home? Get out! ” Wan Quan said fiercely. Mu Cidian emotionlessly replied, “I only came back here because Xin Zaozao is here!”
“Mu Cidian!” Wan Quan’s explosive temper, once again lost control.
Mu Cidian had already turned around and left.
From now on, he would only stand on Xin Zaozao’s side.
He returned to his room.
Without attending to his wounded hand, he sat on his bed, he checked the news, there was no news about him, nor was the statement he had given to the reporters that afternoon being played.
He picked up his phone and dialled a number.
Yin Qin answered, “Mu Cidian.”
“The news hasn’t been released yet?” Mu Cidian asked.
“Dude, I’m just looking out for you, if you continue like this, you will be ruined sooner or later!” Yin Qin hadn’t allowed it to be released, solely out of consideration for his friend’s standpoint.
Regardless, Mu Cidian had copied his homework when they were young, and this favor had to be returned.
“If you’re truly looking out for me, release the news.”
“Cidian…
“Thank you.” Mu Cidian hung up the phone, throwing the mobile to one side. If he really had his interests in mind, he would have protected Xin Zaozao’s reputation.
Anyway, he’s just a scumbag, what reputation does he need?!
He laid heavily onto his bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
A notification sounded on his phone.
Mu Cidian picked up the thrown phone, and saw on the screen, the message read “Already released, fend for yourself.” He got up.
He stood up from his bed.
He calmly started to undress.
The smell of alcohol and cigarettes all over his body, it’s time for him to take a bath.
He took off his suit, and his dress shirt.
The moment he was unbuckling his belt…
The door to the room was suddenly pushed open.
Mu Cidian’s eyes slightly shifted.
Xin Zaozao was looking at him in the same way.
Their eyes met, neither of them feeling awkward or disturbed.
Mu Cidian turned around and put on the white shirt that he had taken off on the bed.
“Mu Cidian, what are you up to now?” Xin Zaozao held her phone, on the screen was a video of him explaining to the reporters today.
He said, “Exactly what you are seeing! ”
“What good will this do you?” Xin Zaozao mocked.
She would never believe that he was doing this for her.
Mu Cidian was too cunning, she didn’t know what he would do next!
It seemed that every time he intentionally showed goodwill, the end result was her suffering even greater persecution.
She looked at him coldly.
His indifferent voice said clearly, “If you can predict it, how can I still manipulate you!”
Xin Zaozao gave a small laugh.
Yes, indeed.
Would Mu Cidian still be able to torment and abuse her if he revealed his schemes to her?!
She was probably too shocked just now.
Shocked to the extent that she lost her train of thought.
She turned around and left directly.
Mu Cidian watched her receding figure, watched her leave.
He also turned around and walked into the bathroom.
From then on, he could no longer catch up with Xin Zaozao, they could only go their separate ways!
In the bathroom.
He once again took off the white shirt he had just put on.
Looking in the large mirror, there was almost no intact skin on his body, beaten some time ago, then beaten again by Ji Baili today, there were also marks where his mother had bitten him.
He looked at himself and gave a cold laugh.
Even so, he still couldn’t die!
The next day.
After fermenting overnight.
Mu Cidian’s video response to Xin Zaozao’s engagement banquet announcement caused a national sensation. In that moment, when everyone was criticizing, speculating, and insulting Xin Zaozao, due to Mu Cidian’s video, public opinion swiftly shifted to hating him instead.
Mu Cidian, who usually had a positive image, suddenly became a pariah. Mu Cidian coldly watched the news about himself, completely unmoved.
He put down his phone and got out of bed.
It was still early at this moment.
He hadn’t slept all night.
Constantly refreshing the news about himself, watching slowly as the hatred towards Xin Zaozao turned into sympathy, seeing himself cursed by people wishing for his death! He thought to himself, his final fate might really be as the netizens predicted!
He washed up and changed his clothes.
When he left the Xin Family villa, the servants had not yet gotten up.
He drove to the Xin Group headquarters.
He went to retrieve his resignation letter.
Since he wasn’t leaving, there was no need to resign anymore.
The car quickly reached its destination, he went to Xin Zaozao’s office.
The handwritten resignation letter he placed on Xin Zaozao’s desk that night was still neatly lying there, he picked it up, ready to leave.
As he was about to leave, he suddenly paused.
His gaze fell on Xin Zaozao’s clean desk, her laptop, her mouse, her thermos mug…
Everything was so close, yet felt miles apart!
He reached out towards Xin Zaozao’s laptop, the one she used every day.
He even thought that this laptop had a good life.
He opened Xin Zaozao’s laptop.
Just as he opened it.
Someone suddenly pushed open the door.
Mu Cidian’s body tensed.
He didn’t expect Xin Zaozao to come, as it was Sunday.
Even if she did come, it shouldn’t be this early.
But.
He was caught by her.
Xin Zaozao, evidently agitated, walked over and pushed him away forcefully.
He held back and took a few steps back.
Xin Zaozao glared at him, “Mu Cidian, what are you trying to see on my computer! What do you want to see!”
She thought he was trying to spy on her business secrets.
Let’s just assume that was the case.
He turned around and left.
Since he was caught, he should flee.
However, Xin Zaozao suddenly grabbed his arm, “Mu Cidian, what do you have in your hand!”
