A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 779: 778 I’m here… With me around

Chapter 779 -778 I’m here… With me around

“Miss, are you hungry? If you’re hungry, you can head to our cafeteria first. Although we researchers aren’t physical laborers, mental work requires even more nourishment, so our cafeteria is staffed 24 hours a day. I’ll take you to the cafeteria for a meal right now.”

Tang Ming enthusiastically led Wen Xin toward the cafeteria. Although Wen initially wanted to refuse, seeing Tang’s excited demeanor, she knew what her presence here meant.

In the end, she followed Tang Ming toward the cafeteria.

When Mu Bei learned that Wen Xin was coming, he waited for her downstairs. Just as he turned around, he caught a glimpse of Wen Xin’s figure disappearing from view.

He raised his hand to rub his eyes, unsure if he was seeing things. He then took out his phone and dialed Wen Xin’s number.

The call was answered after just a couple of rings. Mu Bei quickly asked, “Miss Wen, have you arrived?”

“Yes, I’m here. I’m at the cafeteria with Chief Engineer Tang. Has Mu Chengxi forgotten about it?”

Wen Xin’s tone was mild, and she seemed to be in a not-so-good mood.

“Master Xi hasn’t finished his work yet. I’m waiting downstairs for Miss Wen. You can go ahead and eat with Chief Engineer Tang, and I’ll come down to pick you up after you’ve finished.”

When Mu Bei came down, he didn’t greet Mu Chengxi. He was only worried that Wen Xin might not be able to enter the research institute and hadn’t thought much else. Now that someone had brought Wen Xin into the institute, he needed to go back and bring something to Mu Chengxi.

“It might still be some time before things wrap up on the Master Xi’s end. Have you had your meal? If not, why don’t you come over and join us?”

By now, Wen Xin was nearing the laboratory’s dining area. Seeing all the delicacies, the feeling of hunger rushed to her brain, suddenly making her very hungry.

“Miss Wen, I think I’ll head upstairs to join Master Xi instead. Grandfather Xi hasn’t eaten yet; I’ll wait to eat with him.”

Although Mu Bei wanted to join Wen Xin for the meal, thinking that Mu Chengxi might get angry if he couldn’t find him made him restrain himself. He just took the elevator upstairs.

Having been hung up on, Wen Xin didn’t pay much attention to it; she put the phone back in her pocket, made a round past the serving windows, and finally ordered some braised chicken… She wanted to see if it still tasted like it did in her childhood.

Concealing his movements from Wen Xin, Tang Ming brought the braised chicken to a table and sat down opposite her, helping her open a bottle of strawberry milk and placing it beside her.

“Miss, please take your time eating. I have to head upstairs for a meeting. After you finish, you can just take my access card and come directly upstairs.”

“Our meeting room is on the twenty-sixth floor. You can directly find it once you’re upstairs.”

Just a moment ago, Tang Ming had already received several calls urging him to come upstairs. He had originally wanted to discuss the physics competition with Wen Xin, but those matters couldn’t be delayed either. He’d have to find another opportunity to discuss it with Wen when he was back at school.

Wen Xin looked at the braised chicken rice in front of her, feeling somewhat complex emotions. She only faintly responded to Tang Ming and began to eat only after he left.

When Wen Xin picked up her chopsticks, her hands involuntarily trembled. She gripped her hand tightly, not allowing her emotions to show too much, struggling to keep her emotions from collapsing.

Tang Ming hurried into the conference room. Seeing someone presenting at the podium, he quietly approached Ma Wenyuan’s side.

Ma Wenyuan, seeing Tang Ming sneak in, frowned tightly and spoke up with a not-so-pleasant tone, somewhat blaming Tang Ming.

“Didn’t I tell you to hurry over after you had dealt with the school matters? Why has it taken so long! The meeting has already started halfway.”

“Sorry, Dean Ma, I saw Miss Wen squatting by the roadside at the school gate. I wasn’t sure if she was feeling unwell, so I got out of the car and asked her.”

“After asking, I found out that Miss Wen was waiting for a car at the roadside, planning to come to the laboratory, so I brought her along with me.”

Upon hearing Tang Ming say that Wen Xin had come to the laboratory, Wen Yuan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he abruptly stood up from the chair on the couch, “Are you saying Miss Wen has come?”

“Yes, Miss Wen should still be eating in the cafeteria…”

The conversation between the two men made the previously enthusiastic reporter stop, and the entire meeting room became unusually quiet.

Mu Chengxi, hearing Wen Yuan mention Miss Wen, couldn’t help but frown. He was very clear about who they were referring to with ‘Miss Wen’.

“Are you saying that Wen Xin has come?” Mu Chengxi asked Wen Yuan and Tang Ming with a somewhat puzzled voice, knowing that Wen Xin was somewhat resistant to the physics laboratory.

“Yes, Miss Wen has come.” Wen Yuan replied directly to Mu Chengxi, aware of the relationship between Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, and was not at all surprised by Mu Chengxi’s reaction.

Upon confirming that Wen Xin had really come, Mu Chengxi suddenly became worried. He abruptly stood up from his chair, threw the documents in his hand to Gu Yanzhe, and walked out of the meeting room without looking back.

As Mu Chengxi walked out of the meeting room, Wen Yuan’s expression became much more composed. He pulled the chair behind him and sat down.

“Let’s continue the meeting.”

With Mu Chengxi present, he was not worried at all, knowing that Mu Chengxi was far more useful to Wen Xin than this old man. He should stop causing trouble for them.

Sitting outside the meeting room, Mu Bei saw Mu Chengxi hurriedly leaving and quickly approached, asking confusedly, “Master Xi, what happened?”

“Wen Xin has come? Did you know?”

“I knew, Miss Wen called Master Xi, saying she wanted to have lunch with Master Xi. So I told Miss Wen that Master Xi was in a meeting at the research institute, and she wanted to come and look for you.”

“I just went downstairs to wait for Miss Wen, but Miss Wen came with Chief Engineer Tang, saying they were going to the cafeteria to eat, so I came upstairs to wait.”

After Mu Bei explained the situation, Mu Chengxi unconsciously narrowed his eyes and then quickly strode toward the direction of the elevators, moving very swiftly.

He just wanted to see Wen Xin quickly; he felt somewhat uneasy. free𝑤ebnovel.com

When Mu Chengxi walked into the cafeteria, he saw Wen Xin holding her own hand that held the chopsticks, the corners of her eyes slightly reddened, exuding an aura of keeping strangers at bay.

Seeing Wen Xin like this, Mu Chengxi’s heart suddenly ached. He quickly walked to Wen Xin’s side, sat next to her, and enveloped her outside of his embrace.

He gently patted Wen Xin’s back with one hand and separated Wen Xin’s clasped hands with the other. He then lowered his head to her neck, pressed down his voice, and softly began to comfort her, “I’m here, I’m with you.”
