Chapter 196: Just Treat It As Paying for a Lesson
ll you!The Hawk finally relented: "What I just gave you is indeed an antidote, but it's also a poison. Detoxifying it will simultaneously expose you to another kind of poison."Mu Xing continued to pr...Mu Xing nodded, her eyes curved into a smile, "I know."
Her little uncle was, of course, the best.
Besides, things have come to this point, and worrying anymore is useless. When the danger truly arrives that day, she will risk her life to protect her little uncle completely.
After He Chao left, Mu Xing immediately called Shen Qiong.
At this time, Shen Qiong was eating in the school cafeteria. Ever since she learned that Mu Xing and He Chao had been taken away, her heart hadn't settled down. She worried about whether Mu Xing and the others would be punished, and she also regretted helping Mu Xing. If she hadn't helped, she wouldn't have gotten them into trouble.
Seeing the caller ID, she hastily answered, "Little Star, what's wrong Are you alright"
Mu Xing listened to her anxious and worried voice, full of apologies, "I'm fine, Qiongbao, I'm sorry for worrying you."
"It's alright, I'm fine."
Shen Qiong hesitated for a moment, then said, "...I heard from my brother that you and Dr. He were taken back by Brother Fu together. That... is Dr. He alright"
"Ah Zhaozhao's brother is fine, I just saw him."
Listening to Mu Xing's easygoing and laughing answer, Shen Qiong was a little flustered. She was naturally happy that they were fine, but...
Brother Fu should already know the relationship between Little Star and Dr. He, right
Does he really not mind
Could this be the legendary true love
"Mu Xing suddenly heard silence on the other end of the phone and asked, "Qiongbao, what's wrong"
"It's okay, it's okay."
"Shen Qiong put her thoughts aside, “By the way, Xiaoxingxing, our new class monitor Song Nanzhi is inviting all of us to dinner this Friday night. She said she messaged you in the class group, but you didn't reply. She asked me to tell you that you must come. I think she's a pretty nice person. Let's go, shall we"
Mu Xing and Song Nanzhi weren't familiar, but since Shen Qiong had said so, she naturally readily agreed.
Friday at 5:30 PM, InterContinental Hotel, let's meet at the entrance.
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Xing skipped downstairs, "Butler!"
Wu Guanjia was talking to someone in the living room. He saw Mu Xing running down the stairs, back to her previous lively and adorable self. His heart filled with joy. Their little treasure should be like this, happy every day.
Mu Xing ran to the first floor only to see that Wu Guanta was standing beside a strange woman.
She looked to be in her thirties, wearing a light gray satin dress. A matching belt cinched her waist, perfectly highlighting her figure. Matte black shark-clip held her long black hair back, giving her an air of both intelligence and laziness.
Mu Xing looked at her curiously, and Wu Guanjia immediately introduced her: "Little Star, this is Dr. Yu Rong, the leader of the newly arrived medical team in the manor."
Turning his head, he introduced to Yu Rong again, "Doctor Yu, this is our Miss Musheng."
Yu Rong smiled faintly at Mu Xing: "Miss Mu Xing, hello. From now on, your health is in my hands."
Mu Xing stared at Yu Rong intently for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Doctor Yu, do I know you"
Yu Rong's expression was slightly puzzled, "We are meeting for the first time, Miss Mu Xing, how would you ask that"
Is this really the first time we've met
Mu Xing looked at her carefully. This face was indeed one she had never seen before, but this person gave her a strange feeling of familiarity, even a touch of warmth.
She was at a loss, a business card suddenly appeared before her eyes, "This is my number. If Miss Mu Xing has anything, she can call me anytime. I'm over at the medical building. If Miss Mu Xing gets bored, she can also come and chat with me. According to Mr. Wu, Miss Mu Xing knows Chinese medicine, and I also have a little understanding of it. We can discuss it together."
Mu Xing took the card with both hands, Yu Rong smiled faintly, "Then I'll get to work."
As soon as Yu Rong left, Mu Xing was also pulled by Wu Butler to the dining room, "Little Mu Xing, come have lunch with your uncle."
After dinner, Mu Xing asked Uncle Wu, "Uncle Wu, where is the medical building"
The estate was so vast it seemed to have no end. Having lived here for so long, she hadn't been to many places. Currently, she only knew that the house she lived in was the main villa, inhabited by her and her uncle. The butler, along with other servants, chefs, drivers, and bodyguards, resided in several smaller villas not far away.
And what she was familiar with was the backyard, where iron poles and Gou Dan were playing. She had taken a walk once through the garden, the parking apron, and other parts of the estate, but she didn't know anything else about them.
Wu Guanta led Mu Xing to the door and pointed to a white building that only showed a corner in the distance. "That's the medical building. It's a bit far. When you want to go there, ask the driver to take you."
Mu Xing touched the business card in his pocket and nodded.
Back in her room, she lay on the bed and counted the time again. Logically, the private investigator she hired to find the class monitor should have replied by now, but there was still no movement. She thought for a moment, then decided to call and ask.
She dialed the number, a cold, robotic voice reminding her that the number she had called was unavailable.
What's going on
Mu Xing frowned and took out the private detective's WeChat again, sending a message, but was blocked!
She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, so she grabbed her bag and ran out.
Shén Luè, squatting on the roof, saw her dashing out in a flurry. He leaped down, "Little Star, where are you going"
Mu Xing felt that she had been honest with her little uncle, so there was no need to hide it from Shen Yue anymore. She told him the truth: "I hired a private investigator a while ago to help me find someone. I just called him and found out his number is disconnected, and he even blocked me on WeChat. He's obviously a scammer, and I'm going to go find him to settle the score!"
Looking at Mu Xing's exhausted appearance, Shen Lue burst into laughter: "Little Star, you finally know you were deceived, it wasn't easy! Hahaha!"
Mu Xing immediately reacted upon hearing this, pouting and staring at him, "Shen Lue! You knew I was being deceived all along, didn't you Why didn't you tell me!"
Shen Yue retracted his smile, snorted softly, and his expression was a bit haughty. "Who made you deliberately ditch me that day"
He's very vindictive!
"There's a reason for everything, right" Mu Xing explained, remembering the 50,000 yuan that had been swindled away, her cheeks puffed up in anger. "I'm not going to talk to you anymore, I'm going to find that scammer and get my revenge!"
Shen Yue intercepted her, "No need to go, I already sent that person to prison. He's probably sewing right now."
Mu Xing's face immediately fell, her eyes filled with despair as she looked at Shen Lue, "He tricked me out of 50,000 yuan! Shen Lue gege, why didn't you wait for me to get my money back before sending him to jail Now it's too late, he won't be punished, and I won't get my money back."
Shen Yue appreciated her puffed-up appearance and deliberately teased her: "It's only fifty thousand yuan, just treat it as paying for a lesson."ing said anxiously, "Brother Chao, quickly send an ambulance over, many people are injured here!"She looked at the fire in the distance and added, "We need a fire truck too!""Great! Send me the locati...
