Chapter 1347 Danger Ahead
With Mu Feichi’s current abilities, he could suppress the Han family even if they had the Prime Minister supporting them. However, this girl had always wanted to win against those sly old foxes with her own schemes. She seemed to have forgotten that she had a Young Commander like him behind her. He could help her solve all her problems.
However, she was so stubborn that it made his heart ache. He felt helpless whenever he thought of her.
Sighing softly, he raised his hand to pinch her chin. His deep gaze landed on her increasingly exquisite face. Her radiance was becoming more and more dazzling, and she would definitely become a target for more people in the future.
“When it comes to things that you’re not confident about, you should know that you can always come to me.”
Yun Xi laughed softly. She suddenly understood why he had been throwing a tantrum at her all this time. She nodded seriously. “I almost forgot that I have a great supporter like my Young Commander. However, I can settle this kind of small matter. You just have to help me clean up the mess when I get into trouble.”
Mu Feichi smiled and said, “Your show has just begun. Han Wanling has gone to prison, and the entire recording has been exposed. Qiao Ximin will also be implicated because of her false evidence. Have you thought about how to deal with the consequences of that?”
“I haven’t thought about it.” Yun Xi shrugged. “I don’t plan on dealing with it either. The Qiao family is having things go their way right now, and there’s no doubt that they’ll become one of the big four wealthiest families. Why should I bother to clean up their mess? I’m not that easy.” She was the one who had come up with the idea of letting the Qiao family use Han Wanling to extort a sum of money from the Han family. Now that she had schemed against Han Wanling and dragged Qiao Ximin down with her, why should she let Qiao Ximin off when Han Wanling had already gone to jail?
The scores between her and Qiao Ximin had yet to be settled.
The reason why she had placed her on such a high pedestal was just to make her fall more painful.
Otherwise, how could she get even for the painstaking efforts Qiao Ximin had spent in using her in her previous life?
Mu Feichi nodded with a smile. “Should we watch the fight when the big four wealthiest families holds their election the day after tomorrow?”
Yun Xi thought for a bit, but in the end, she shook her head. “It’s fine, just tell me the result. In any case, you won’t let anything that goes beyond our expectations happen. I have nothing to worry about.”
Once the results of the election were out, the Han family would definitely attack her. If they were kicked out from the position of one of the big four wealthiest families, it was equivalent to the balance of power of the entire Jingdu being shattered, and the situation in Jingdu would change.
She had to make sure that all possible accidents and the safety of the people around her were taken care of before the Han family took any action.
This was a hornet’s nest that she had poked herself. She could not allow Mu Feichi and the others to get into harm’s way because of her. “Beyond my expectations…” Mu Feichi narrowed his eyes slightly and curled his thin lips. He looked like he was smiling, but the smile on his lips did not reach his eyes.
“Once the election results of the big four wealthiest families are released, the entire landscape in Jingdu will change. Anything can happen. No matter where you go, you can’t get rid of the bodyguards that I’ve sent to you to prevent any accidents from happening. Do you understand me?”
“I understand…” The dynamics were going to change in Jingdu. She could more or less guess what this meant on the surface, but she could not see through the deeper undercurrents.
If even Mu Feichi was feeling so cautious, she understood that with the Han family’s elimination and the change in Jingdu, many unexpected things might really happen. It could catch them off guard at any time.
With that thought, the confidence that she had just accumulated was doused as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her. She instantly sobered up. It seemed as if she really needed to be prepared for any possibilities. Otherwise, being attacked from both sides would not be a good thing for her.
