Chapter 1218: Extra Story 2: Being Overprotective Can be Quite Scary
To tell the truth, Mu Xingzhi’s eyes even gathered a fierce glint when he first heard the news.
Back then, Shaohua Ye was forced behind the scenes by the pretext of those clans who supposedly had the people’s best interests at heart but actually harbored jealousy.
He’d expended considerable effort to climb to his current position.
Just a word could influence Minister Shen’s big plans.
The Butler by his side was staring with wide eyes, trying to signal Minister Shen and the people around him with his gaze, but Minister Shen’s mother didn’t dare to look up, her hands trembling too much to catch the Butler’s signals.
Mu Xingzhi didn’t look at them.
The Study Room wasn’t especially cold due to the heating, and the window beside it was still open. Mu Xingzhi put down the documents and pen he held, leaned back, and took out a cigarette from the drawer to bite between his lips.
Shaohua Ye was somewhat squeamish and didn’t particularly like people smoking. Recently, Mu Xingzhi only smoked occasionally when he thought of it.
He had restrained himself considerably.
Even amid such fury, he hadn’t lit up.
He couldn’t quite understand why these people just refused to believe Shaohua Ye.
Nie Jinyu had nearly killed her, and several powerful families had forced her to give up her rights...
What then was Shaohua Ye’s desperate struggle for, giving so much to her research?
Mu Xingzhi even thought that killing these people would solve everything.
But, after all, he suppressed such sinister thoughts deep down.
Having lain low for five years, Mu Xingzhi had planned a lot for this day and had waited a long time. Normally, one sentence could have resolved everything, one sentence to make these pleased individuals understand what Shaohua Ye was currently doing, whether she harbored any ulterior motives.
But Mu Xingzhi didn’t want to.
That would be letting them off too easily.
He sneered, curling his lips mockingly. These damned creatures... freeweɓnøvel.com
No one spoke in the Study Room.
Mu Xingzhi held a lighter, toyed with it for a long while, then casually tossed it aside. He suddenly smiled, "So, what do you all think?"
"Ah?" Minister Shen was taken aback.
He didn’t understand why Mu Xingzhi suddenly adopted this expression.
The line of leaders following him were also somewhat bewildered, only feeling as if the atmosphere in the Study Room turned tense in an instant, terribly so.
Yet they didn’t know exactly where the problem arose, some looking towards Mu Xingzhi’s direction with fear and unease.
"Since that’s the case, I understand. Rest assured, I will definitely..." Mu Xingzhi looked at them and spoke indifferently, "prevent her from getting involved in any matter."
The Butler looked at Mu Xingzhi with astonishment.
However, Mu Xingzhi methodically organized his documents with a demeanor that suggested he was not joking.
Minister Shen and the others knew of Mu Xingzhi’s methods.
He never broke a promise.
Upon hearing Mu Xingzhi’s response, Minister Shen’s face lit up with joy, appearing to deduce that Shaohua Ye wasn’t all that important to Mu Xingzhi; now they could handle the situation with ease.
They had thought that Mu Xingzhi, being so averse to others’ opinions and overly composed, would not heed their words, but to their surprise, the issue progressed smoothly.
Minister Shen was pleasantly surprised, immediately smiling as he spoke a sentence and then took his leave.
The other leaders were also very pleased, heaping praises on Mu Xingzhi.
These people were all significant national leaders, and the Butler respectfully saw them to the door.
Hearing their words,
he cast a complex glance in the direction of Minister Shen and others.
Isn’t there a new weapon test at the hot weapon base involving Lady Ye? And aren’t there still a lot of data that haven’t been sent over?
Also, at the Military District Hospital, Lady Ye wants to teach a few talented individuals how to make potions, right? The Butler initially didn’t know about Shaohua Ye’s potion-making, only finding out the day Shaohua Ye gave them a bottle of red potion.
To be honest, even the Butler, who had seen his fair share of turmoil, was scared.
But that’s not the point. Isn’t Minister Shen one of the hundred names provided potions by the Military District? And there’s...
The Butler thought of the Aviation Bureau, which was inviting Lady Ye to calculate experiment data, and the National Laboratory, which was requesting her to write a new thesis...
Mu Xingzhi always kept his word. If he demanded that Shaohua Ye not involve herself with these, then none of these projects would proceed to the next step.
Each one of these massive projects was crucial for the country’s next steps.
A delay in any one of them could yield terrifying results.
These were outcomes Minister Shen and his peers couldn’t even imagine.
Mu Xingzhi could have revealed Shaohua Ye’s significant role in these projects, but he chose not to.
In the end, Minister Shen and his ilk would be pleading for Shaohua Ye to come back.
