Chapter 239-240

Chapter 239: The Woman I Want Must Facilitate a Harmonious Family and World .......... The camera faced him as he spoke, head slightly cocked, to the wealthy businessmen sitting beside him. He appeared elegant and charming with a serious expression. One had the impression that the experience and wisdom he’d gained from the battlefield had made him suave and assured. He was sitting with a group of foreign wealthy businessmen... And, upon seeing such a scene, Yun Xi could only think of how he stood out from the crowd. Everyone said that men from the business world weren’t romantic, but were ruthless people who were intimidating to approach. But this description didn’t describe Mu Feichi. He was a distinguished man from a prominent family, and he had no shortage of women flocking to him. All the women in Jingdu were vying for the position of the wife of the heir of the Mu family.. 　 　 Yun Chuhan, who was just about to go upstairs, suddenly stopped behind the sofa when she saw Mu Feichi on the TV. Her eyes stared straight at the figure on the TV. From her fixated stare, it appeared as if it took all her strength to restrain herself from rushing toward the TV. Yun Xi turned her head and glanced at her airily. Then, leaning back against the sofa, she raised her chin and gazed at her sister. “Why, do you like Young Marshal Mu?” Yun Chuhan blushed bright red, and she glared at Yun Xi in fury. “What nonsense are you talking about?” “From your expression, I could say that you wanted to devour Young Marshal Mu.” Yun Chuhan bit her lip. It took a few minutes for her to control her emotions, and then she sneered, “Who in Jingdu doesn’t like Young Marshal Mu?” Since she knew how to discreetly change the topic, it appeared that Yun Chuhan was at least not stupid. Yun Xi nodded and deliberately glanced at Yun Ziling. “That’s right. It’s one matter to like him, but whether or not one can marry him is another matter.” Although it might have sounded like an offhand remark, a listener might feel personally attacked. Yun Ziling put down the tea cup in her hand with a bang. 　 　 “Sister, what do you mean by that? Are you indirectly trying to put me down?” Yun Xi chuckled. “What are you talking about? Wasn’t I talking about Young Marshal Mu? Why are you so desperate to steer the subject to you, or perhaps I’ve hit a nerve?” “You...” Grandfather Yun glanced at the girls, then tapped on the table. “That’s enough, stop quarreling! Can’t you sisters just get along with each other? Why do you all have to be so quarrelsome? Haven’t your parents taught you all that peace in the family matters the most?” Yun Xi lowered her head to pour water and did not speak again. The news footage on the TV had now shifted to a private interview with Mu Feichi. It was rare that anyone had the honor to interview Young Marshal Mu, the head of the Mu family. The voice of the host asking the questions quivered with emotion. Yun Xi was drinking tea, and her gaze shifted from the tea cup to the TV. Mu Feichi stared into the camera with soulful eyes, as if he were trying to see through the camera to the person he most wanted to see. “Young Marshal Mu, you were born into the Mu family and are now the head of the family. Everyone is curious if you have a girlfriend?” Such a gossipy question piqued the interest of all the women watching. “No,” Mu Feichi replied. The female reporter looked astonished. Her eyes got wide, and she gasped in disbelief. Everyone could tell she was a fan. “Does Young Marshal Mu have any particular standards when choosing a potential mate?” 　 　 “She must facilitate a harmonious family and world.” Everyone could understand what he meant when he said “harmonious family”, but the “world” part baffled the reporter. The female reporter asked him, according to her own interpretation, “By ‘world’, do you mean someone of a similarly distinguished background?” “The woman I want is someone who stands by my side and is evenly matched with me in terms of capabilities.” Mu Feichi’s eyes stared into the lens with immense passion pouring out of his eyes. Yun Xi had never seen this gentle side of this iron-fisted man, but that gentleness was different from that of a man’s love for a woman. His gentleness and his idiosyncrasies as the one and only Mu Feichi were extremely intoxicating. The female reporter wanted to ask him more questions, but his bodyguard stopped the interview and escorted Mu Feichi out of the studio. Standing by my side, evenly matched with me in terms of capabilities... These words echoed loudly in her eardrums. Her heartbeat silently yet wildly! She looked down at the tea leaves tumbling around the teacup. The tea leaves were emerald green, as if they had been born again. ..............   ................. ........................... Chapter 240: If I Missed Her, Would You Kidnap Her for Me? ....... Somewhere in M., in an extravagant seaside suite... 　 　 Mu Feichi took off his suit jacket and handed it to the butler who had been employed to wait on him 24 hours a day. The butler took the suit and hung it up for him. 　 　 Feng Rui, who was traveling with him, suppressed the urge to blabber. He waited for Mu Feichi’s secretary to finish going over his schedule before he finally found the right time to say what was on his mind. 　 　 “Young Marshal Mu, how could you have agreed to an interview with the media? As soon as that interview is broadcast, the entire area of Jingdu will explode.” 　 Many of the women in Jingdu, especially those in the elite groups, were of distinguished status and background. If they really wanted to throw themselves at Mu Feichi, he wouldn’t be able to stop them. 　 　 Moreover, it was highly likely that their families were all extremely prominent and powerful. 　 　 So it appeared that soon all the employees of these people would be engaged in cleaning up messy love affairs. 　 　 Mu Feichi stood by the bar as he unbuttoned his cufflinks and rolled up his sleeves to the elbow. 　 　 His cold eyes appeared more gentle and calm when he was in private time, along with his friends. 　 　 Mu Feichi poured a glass of water and replied indifferently, “How many women in Jingdu do you think can meet my requirements? What are you worrying about?” 　 　 “That isn’t going to stop these wealthy socialites from throwing themselves at you...” 　 　 “Would they dare to cross me?” 　 　 “Of course,...these spoiled socialites know nothing at all except upper-class etiquette. They would be no match against you in business, but in affairs of the heart...” 　 　 “But you think I can’t hold my own against these women if they want to date me? 　 　 “Are they stronger than my little wild cat?” 　 　 “...” 　 　 As for who his little wild cat was, Feng Rui knew the answer to this without asking. 　 　 In the interview that he’d just given to the press, Young Marshal Mu, as if he had been bewitched, had actually been a willing participant. 　 Feng Rui realized that he had said what he’d said just for his little wild cat to hear. 　 　 As he made this discovery, he suddenly was certain that a PDA was imminent. 　 　 “Young Marshal Mu, do you miss her?” 　 　 They were involved in business negotiations that were going to last for at least two weeks, and apparently Young Marshal Mu’s heart was aching for her. 　 　 Mu Feichi put down his water glass and looked at Feng Rui with cool eyes. “If I missed her, would you kidnap her for me?” 　 　 “Uh, I can’t do that, but I can pull up the surveillance footage from the villa complex. She will appear on the surveillance camera every day.” 　 　 Upon seeing Mu Feichi raise his eyebrows, Feng Rui thought he had agreed to this so he quickly brought his laptop over. 　 　 He pulled up the villa complex’s surveillance footage and fast-forwarded it to find the footage of Yun Xi taking the bus every day. 　 　 “Okay, okay, go on about your own business.” Mu Feichi ushered him out of his room. 　 　 “...” Destroying the bridge so unceremoniously after crossing the river. 　 　 It was just a surveillance video, yet he treated it so preciously and wouldn’t let anyone else watch it with him... 　 　 Feng Rui sheepishly exited the suite. 　 　 Looking at the little figure on the laptop, Mu Feichi frowned slightly as his fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard. 　 　 ... 　 　 Sitting in her chair, Yun Xi opened her laptop and searched on the map for where Mu Feichi was. 　 　 Somewhere in M. He was taking part in a global business conference, and it seemed as if he wouldn’t be returning for a while. She didn’t know if Xiang Yuanjiu’s enlistment in his organization could be settled. Qi Yuan hadn’t given her any decision yet. He’d simply said that he had to wait for Young Marshal Mu to come back to make a decision. 　 　 She wasn’t worried about his refusal. She was worried that if he didn’t refuse, he would no doubt make some demands on her. 　 　 In regard to Han Wanling, he had indeed been very helpful. She was struggling to find a way to repay this favor. 　 　 Just as she was thinking about all these things, her screen suddenly went black, and columns of codes in English seemed to have been automatically entered on her screen. 　 　 Yun Xi was stunned. She quickly realized that her computer was being hacked. 　 　 But this computer was an encrypted one that had been given to her by Mu Feichi. She was positive that it would be very difficult, if not impossible, for hackers to break into it. Thus, there was only one other possibility... 　 　 Sure enough, a video frame quickly popped up on the screen and revealed Mu Feichi’s chiseled profile. 　 　 Sitting in front of the computer, Yun Xi was stunned for a moment when she suddenly saw him appear in front of her from thousands of miles away. 　 　 He had been basically provoking all the women in the world to throw themselves at him moments before, yet just now he had hacked into her computer to forcibly video call her. How was this different from him climbing over the wall? 　 　 Sure enough, she really admired Mu Feichi’s modus operandi!
