Chapter 376: Be Vicious, Don’t Think Twice! (3)
EndlessFantasy Translation
It seemed that Xi Xiaye had never given up on her and Xi Mushan. Otherwise, she would not have obediently helped Xi Mushan deliver the items to Shen Wenna.
Maybe this was the bond between them. No matter what, how could she ignore what was inside her?
Mu Yuchen’s heart sank and his eyes darkened when he saw Shen Wenna’s condition. “She’s really silly, so… I hope… she can stop getting hurt. She’s always been protecting something all these years, but who actually cared about her? Mother, you’re a smart and strong woman. I believe I don’t have to say the rest.”
Mu Yuchen raised his head and looked into Shen Wenna’s empty eyes that seemed to hold hope in them. “She told me she was envious of her lecturers abroad. They were a married couple and treated her very well. The two of them learned from each other and understood each other. She wished that for you and Father because you both live in each other’s hearts, yet both of you are suffering from loneliness.”
Mu Yuchen’s words made Shen Wenna turned rigid and her pale lips trembled a little. She wanted to say something but nothing came out in the end.
Mu Yuchen did not continue. He decided to not bother her any longer when he saw her hesitant expression. “Love might not be as complicated as we think. It might just be an understanding or a generous thought. It depends on whether you can overcome the barrier within you. Possess what you like. Otherwise, you’re the one that’s going to be trapped, no one else.”
…
The room became silent for a long while. Afterward, Mu Yuchen helped Shen Wenna lie down to rest before he left the room quietly.
“Master, is Teacher Shen alright?” Li Si went up to Mu Yuchen as he left the room, appearing concerned.
Mu Yuchen glanced at him before sitting down on a bench. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “Things don’t seem very well. We need to wait for the results of the doctors’ discussion.”
Li Si sighed, his tone heavy. “It feels like Teacher Shen and Missus both have gone through many hardships in their lives. It’s so rare for them to enjoy peaceful days. It’s said that people should be forgiven, but those who are forgiven sometimes don’t appreciate it, so it might not always be a good thing.”
Li Si had been with Mu Yuchen for the past few days, so he had some idea about what was happening to Xi Xiaye. He shared his thoughts on recent events.
“Master, I just spoke to Ah Mo. He said there seems to be an argument whereby Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi started a conflict. If not for that, Teacher Shen wouldn’t have fought back. Ms. Su Nan tried to help Teacher Shen, but Yue Lingsi was trying to harm Ms. Su Nan, so Teacher Shen shielded her. Unfortunately, she stepped on the slippery floor and bumped into Yue Lingsi. After that, she fell down the staircase,” Li Si explained the situation to Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen’s expression hardened. “How have things between Xi Xinyi and Han Yifeng been lately? I thought the situation got pretty strained with the Han family.”
“Now that you mention it, I felt odd as well. Considering what they had done in the past, they wouldn’t just not do anything when Han Yifeng is ignoring them. Some time ago, Yue Lingsi’s brother went to Mayor Xi and had a fight with him about not helping Xi Xinyi. I also heard that Han Yifeng handed Xi Xinyi a divorce contract, but I’m not sure what happened afterward.”
Li Si frowned as he continued, “Now that Xi Xinyi isn’t bothered by Han Yifeng’s matter anymore, she’s up to take over Yueying. She’s been pretty busy working for Yueying lately as well. I feel that something isn’t right. Are they trying to do something?”
“Master, Xi Xinyi really has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Do we want to keep her monitored in secret?”
Mu Yuchen pinched between his eyebrows and took a pause. “Just keep an eye on her. I told you to investigate Yue Lingsi in secret before. Gather the information and report to me tonight. Then, investigate what happened more than twenty years ago. Be quick about this and get me the results as soon as possible. Don’t let Missus or anyone else know. Send it to me as soon as you get the results.”
“Master, Yue Lingsi and Mayor Xi, and Teacher Shen…”
It happened so many years ago. Rumor had it that Mayor Xi betrayed Teacher Shen and that was the reason their marriage fell apart. Soon after their divorce, Xi Mushan married Yue Lingsi.
Mu Yuchen had told Li Si to investigate Yue Lingsi after he met Xi Jiyang last time. He must be trying to find out who she really was in order to get ahold of her weakness.
Mu Yuchen did not reply and just glanced at Li Si without saying anything after that.
“Master, what about Yueying then? Do we proceed as planned? After Xi Xinyi took over Yueying, she started to gather the power from both the Han Corporation and Qi Kai.”
“It’s not time yet. We don’t have a solid foundation. They wouldn’t dare to try anything. After we’ve confirmed the development of Movie City, Glory World will have a real company in the showbiz industry. That’s why Vice President Liu is working hard on that right now. Leave Yueying for now and just proceed as planned.”
Li Si nodded. “Mmm, got it, Master!”
“By the way, Master, Elder CEO Shen doesn’t know about Teacher Shen’s condition right now. Teacher Shen said not to tell Elder CEO and Missus so as not to worry them, but now, I’m afraid we can’t hide it for long. Do you want to… let him know?”
Mu Yuchen could not help but start worrying.

How could he forget about Shen Yue?
If he found out that Shen Wenna had lost her sight because of Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi, he would despise Xi Mushan even more. Back then when they had gathered at Maple Residence, he worked very hard to suppress his anger so that he would not cause a conflict with Xi Mushan and Xi Jiyang, yet now…
After some time, he took a deep breath and said, “Let me tell him then. Just do the work I’ve told you to. Hire a smart private nurse.”
“Yes, Master! I’ll do it now!” Li Si then turned around and left.
