Chapter 618: Trouble Strikes, Jiang’s People Take Tan Xingyue Away
Ou Jinzhi looked at Jiang Linfei and gave a cold smile. He glanced at Tan Xingyue and then addressed the person behind him, “Take Tan Xingyue to the infirmary first. Then go to the surveillance room and check the footage to see what happened.”
The person behind Ou Jinzhi approached Tan Xingyue and spoke softly, “Come with me to the infirmary.”
Tan Xingyue kept her head down, not daring to look at Jiang Linfei. She really didn’t know how she had hurt Jiang Linfei; it wasn’t intentional.
“What are you pretending for? Besides acting pitiful, what else can you do? You tricked Brother Luoyu with that pitiful look. Let me tell you, I’m definitely going to tell him that you hit me!”
Jiang Linfei felt furious seeing Tan Xingyue’s pitiful expression. She was the one who got hit first, yet Tan Xingyue acted as if she was the one being bullied.
“Call Liang Luoyu right now. Let’s see what he does when he hears you hit Tan Xingyue.”
Ou Jinzhi looked at Jiang Linfei with disdain. He couldn’t understand how the Jiang family raised two girls with such personalities. He was relieved his wife hadn’t grown up in the Jiang family; otherwise, it would have been a headache.
“Ou Jinzhi! You’re my brother-in-law, not Tan Xingyue’s brother-in-law. Why are you siding with her? I’m going to tell my father about this!”
Jiang Linfei yelled at Ou Jinzhi in anger. She felt incredibly wronged. Tan Xingyue had hit her first, so why was she being scolded by Ou Jinzhi? It was too much.
After speaking, Jiang Linfei stormed out, crying and holding her phone. She wanted to get her father to take her side. No matter what Tan Xingyue’s background was, she intended to make sure Tan Xingyue learned a lesson.
Ou Jinzhi watched Jiang Linfei leave, not taking her actions to heart. He sighed, thinking she had a spoiled princess temperament.
He figured her tantrum wouldn’t amount to much, as her father probably wouldn’t have the time to deal with such trivial matters.
Early in the morning, Ou Jinzhi had just woken up when one of his subordinates rushed in.
“Boss, something’s happened. Just now, Mr. Jiang sent a car to take Tan Xingyue away. Even the vice-principal of Beijing University couldn’t stop them. You should go check it out!”
“What? Mr. Jiang’s people came to my training base and took Tan Xingyue without notifying me?”
Ou Jinzhi sat up abruptly, repeating the words to make sure he hadn’t misheard.
“That’s right. Tan Xingyue has been taken. Ou…”
Ye Song seriously confirmed the situation. Before he could finish speaking, Ou Jinzhi quickly got out of bed, dressed, and ran out, giving orders as he went.
“Call Liang Luoyu. Have him contact Master Xi. Only Mu Chengxi can deal with Mr. Jiang’s people. Hurry, if something happens to Tan Xingyue, our base will be in serious trouble.”
Ou Jinzhi remembered Liang Luoyu mentioning that Tan Xingyue was Wen Xin’s person. If something happened to her in his base, he wouldn’t be able to protect the base.
He recalled how Wen Xin had tricked him recently. As long as he didn’t cross Wen Xin, everything was fine, but if he did, he wouldn’t be able to handle the consequences.
Ou Jinzhi hurriedly grabbed his car keys, ran downstairs, and jumped into his car, speeding towards the training base’s exit. He hoped to intercept the car before Tan Xingyue was taken to the Sirius Base; otherwise, things would get even more complicated.
Just as he drove out of the base, Liang Luoyu’s call came through. He answered using the car’s speakerphone.
“Ye Song didn’t explain clearly. He said Mr. Jiang took Tan Xingyue. What exactly is going on?”
“Don’t ask questions now. Just find Master Xi. Only he can solve this problem.”
Liang Luoyu’s voice was urgent. The situation was too complex to explain over the phone. Only finding Mu Chengxi could resolve it.
“I’m chasing the car now. Call Master Xi quickly.”
After saying this, Ou Jinzhi hung up and drove even faster, hoping to stop the car taking Tan Xingyue.
Tan Xingyue sat in the car, nervously watching the two men in training uniforms in the front seat. She gripped her phone tightly and carefully sent a message to Wen Xin.
She didn’t know why she was being taken away, but her first instinct was to contact Wen Xin.
At that moment, Wen Xin was pushing Mu Chengxi into the Independent State’s airport, followed by Chu Yunxuan, Wales, and Mu Bei.
Mu Bei had been stunned since seeing Mu Chengxi the previous day. He always thought Master Xi was invincible, but seeing him now was unimaginable.
Wen Xin’s phone vibrated in her pocket. She turned to Mu Bei and nodded. “Push Master Xi to the lounge. I need to speak with Moore for a moment. I’ll join you shortly.”
Moore had arranged Wen Xin’s departure and was the only one seeing her off at the airport.
Moore watched Wen Xin approach, a faint smile on his lips. “What’s the matter? Any last-minute instructions?”
“Of course. Help me look after the Tang family. I can’t go back there now. Although I called my grandmother yesterday, she’s still upset. Please visit her.”
Wen Xin trusted Moore the most in the Independent State. After the incident at the Wen family, she didn’t even trust Alfredo anymore. She felt that Alfredo had his own interest at heart.
“Handle the dock matters for me. Here’s my seal. It should help avoid many troubles. If Alfredo tries to interfere, don’t hold back. The Taros family still fears him somewhat.”
Wen Xin gave detailed instructions. She needed to leave during the Independent State’s turmoil. When she would return was uncertain.
