After gasping for breath, Si Wenxuan confronted the Young Commander: “Brother Feichi, why do you hate me so much?”

Mu Feichi was the only person who treated her in such a manner. Most other people would do or agree with everything she said without any hesitation.

The Young Commander’s attitude toward the President’s daughter made her feel as if he was practically humiliating and disrespecting her because he didn’t even want to talk to her.

It would have been okay if Mu Feichi had treated other women in the same manner, but Si Wenxuan was the daughter of the country’s President, a standing that was much higher than other people’s.

“Get lost,” replied the man in a cold tone. His handsome face was filled with disdain as if the idea of talking to her disgusted him.

“No! I’m not leaving. Why do you like Yun Xi so much? She’s just another peasant who came from the countryside. So what if she’s the daughter of a director? The Yun family is nothing in Jingdu.”

“Si Wenxuan!” Mu Feichi scowled at the lady. “I don’t care if you don’t feel grateful toward Yun Xi for saving your mother’s life, but I will not tolerate your saying something like this. You are the President’s daughter, and, yet, you act like a spoiled brat. Why don’t you take a look at yourself in the mirror now and then? Your parents should fire the teachers who are supposed to teach you proper etiquette.”

The man did not want to waste another second talking to Si Wenxuan and immediately turned away, leaving the lady completely stunned. When she had finally recovered her wits, the man had headed home.

Si Wenxuan stomped her feet furiously. She thought of chasing after Mu Feichi, but it was too chilly outside so she had to return to the house.

Not long after Mu Feichi had gotten into his car, he spotted the Prime Minister’s car approaching the President’s official residence. Qi Yuan was about to start the engine but was quickly stopped by the Young Commander.

They waited until the Prime Minister had headed into the residence before leaving the parking spot.

“Sir, I assume that the Prime Minister is here because of the changes in the big four wealthiest families?” asked Qi Yuan. “Now that things have changed in Jingdu, even the Prime Minister has to do something about it.”

“He should be happy since the Qiao family became one of the big four. They will become something that he can use against me in the future.”

“Well, the Qiao family is under Ms. Yun’s control anyway. I wonder who will win in the end.”

“It all depends on who’s smarter. The old fox or the young one.”

Now that Yun Xi had started to play her hand, the battle and fights that followed would be inevitable. Whoever would win would be decided by which side had the better plan and methods.

“The socialite ball is soon,” added the Young Commander. “Please prepare the vehicles and stuff that I have requested. Also, make sure that you send two more teams to guard Tianyu Mountain. I want it to be impenetrable. Work with Li Zilan. I don’t want to see anything sudden happen over there.”

“Sir!” Qi Yuan nodded as he parked the car in front of Mu Mansion.

“All right. Head on back. I should let Yun Xi know about the good news. She has been planning this for a long time, and it’s started with a huge success. This calls for a celebration.”

“About that, sir. Before we left today, the butler informed me that there will be a hotpot party at Mu Mansion tonight. Mr. Huo and Mr. Jiang will be here too…”

Mu Feichi raised a brow. “And as the master of the house, I’m the last to know?”

“Ms. Yun said she wanted to surprise you.”

Mu Feichi giggled when he thought of the little fox who had been pleading to eat hotpot for the past few days. “Well, I hope that’s the only surprise.”

“Now that the Qiao family has become one of the big four wealthiest families, should we still monitor the Branch Faction?”

“Yes, especially the ones under the Qiao family. Inform Yun Xi if they make any moves. They are part of the chess pieces, and she’s the one playing chess. I’m not going to interfere.”

Mu Feichi had decided to remain on the sidelines as up until then Yun Xi had never disappointed him once.
