A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 1023 - 1119: Does the Doll Want to Retire?

Chapter 1023: Chapter 1119: Does the Doll Want to Retire?

Wen Xin didn’t want her parents to have died in vain. If she couldn’t avenge them, it would definitely be an obstacle she’d carry with her for life. If the Old Fox wanted to play the long game, she was willing to play it with him.

“Let’s wait a bit more. First, I need to go check out the laboratory, to clear up some things before dealing with the rest.”

Speaking of which, it was actually the biggest headache for Wen Xin; those old-timers in the laboratory simply weren’t under the control of the various forces in Independent State, which was really troublesome.

Wen Xin lazily stretched, placing the remainder of her candied haw on a stick into a vase beside her, blinking her shiny black eyes at Chu Yunxuan.

“How about we hit the bars tonight after it gets dark? I’ve never been to a bar in Independent State, and I’m curious to see how they differ from those on the outside.”

Upon hearing Wen Xin suggest they go out and have fun, Chu Yunxuan unexpectedly tensed up. She felt an inexplicable nervousness; Wen Xin taking the initiative to go out for fun didn’t seem to bode well.

“Can I refuse?” It was not Chu Yunxuan’s territory in the Independent State. If it had been back home, she would have confidently assured Wen Xin’s safety, but the Independent State was different. There were just too many people after Wen Xin’s life there; how could she dare?

“Refusing is not an option. Just come with me to take a look. I promise not to cause trouble. If there’s any danger, I’ll make sure not to stick around and get out at the first sign of trouble,” Wen Xin implored with expectant eyes, knowing fully well that Chu Yunxuan couldn’t resist her pleas, as she had always been indulgent without limits.

Chu Yunxuan didn’t dare look at Wen Xin’s pitiful expression, instead turning her back to her and pretending to admire the scenery outside the window.

“As for the Wen family’s affairs, do you think that cheap brother of yours can handle it? Do you not need to step in?”

Unable to decline Wen Xin’s request, Chu Yunxuan could only change the subject. She didn’t want to face Mu Chengxi’s reckoning when he arrived.

“Resolving the Wen family’s issues isn’t that simple. Every member of the Wen family is scheming, and even the Old Fox wouldn’t easily relinquish the power he holds. I’ll wait for them to fight among themselves and then reap the benefits as the fisherman.”

“If the last man standing is someone I want to see in charge, then I’m not opposed to handing over the Wen family to him. But if it ends up being someone I can’t stand, then I’m sorry, I just can’t leave any threats to myself. I’ve suffered enough from past mistakes already.”

Wen Xin wasn’t a naive, innocent flower or a small saint; she was merely someone who hated complications.

But she had come to a clear understanding now; if she didn’t completely resolve these issues, they would keep bringing trouble in the end.

“I’m someone who dislikes trouble. If I take care of everything all at once, then I can spend my days in Mu Chengxi’s courtyard tending to flowers, raising fish, chatting with grandma, and enjoying a peaceful life.”

The reason she was in such a good mood to play with these people was to thoroughly eliminate all her troubles because she wanted to start enjoying retired life early.

Recently, Wen Xin had read a few interesting novels during her moments of boredom, and she had begun to envy the life of their female protagonists. Living the life of a salted fish wasn’t such a bad option after all, especially since her man was so powerful.

Chu Yunxuan felt an unprecedented sense of crisis at Wen Xin’s words, as though she had deciphered the hidden message in her words. Was she planning to retire from the scene?

“You’re not joking, are you? You’re thinking of living a retired life already? Are you alright? Brother, there are still many things waiting for you to do, you can’t just let go like that, can you?”
