Fate Trading System – Chapter 344

Plan B

Heart-Stealing Operation 3

This person, Chu Muyu, never pretends to be drunk. When she says she is drunk, she is drunk.

So when Su Xin was at that bar, she saw the girl doing a hot dance on the stage, looking incomparably high and excited.

“Muyu.”

Su Xin walked into the dance floor and pulled out that dizzy girl.

“Xiaohuan, you’re here.”

Chu Muyu was already drunk, but she still seemed to speak clearly, smiling.

This was Chu Muyu’s body’s instinctive reaction. The drunker she got, the better she would put on a disguise.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you back.”

“Okay.”

Chu Muyu was indeed a meiren peizi¹. Her posture was graceful and unrestrained; between a raised eyebrow and a curled lip, there was a seductive meaning, but it did not make people feel it was vulgarly pandering and base².

If it were Lin Xiaohuan, she should be very happy to see this kind of Chu Muyu.

But as Su Xin held her bag in one hand and supported Chu Muyu with the other, she thought in her heart that it was a good thing Chu Muyu never vomited when she drank—or rather, she wouldn’t vomit randomly. If she accidentally vomited all over her, she would really have ten thousand “ma mai pi”³ to say.

Chu Muyu leaned on Su Xin, saying something.

“Yesterday was my fault. I shouldn’t have spoken like that yesterday. Don’t be mad at me, okay?”

“Why didn’t you call Wu Yubing?”

Hearing the name Wu Yubing, Chu Muyu seemed to be stimulated.

“Don’t mention him to me. Who knows which girl he’s having a romantic and merry time with right now. So annoying.”

“If you’re not drunk, then stand properly.”

“Only half-drunk.”

Chu Muyu mumbled, but she still did not stand properly, still leaning crookedly on Su Xin.

Su Xin thought, this won’t do. She’s only half-drunk, how can I send her back to her own home.

Lin Xiaohuan knew where Chu Muyu’s home was. She had been there once and marveled at its magnificence and splendor. Chu Yanxi was not there at that time.

“Then why did you still call me? I thought you were already done for.”

Chu Muyu knew that Lin Xiaohuan would never have spoken to her like this before. She would only silently do everything well, making her feel comfortable.

Maybe she’s angry now, that’s why she’s talking so much.

“Are you unwilling to take care of me?”

“Chu Muyu, your heart is really big.”

Chu Muyu did not seem to think this was a sarcastic remark and accepted it with a grin.

“Do you still want to keep drinking? Anyway, it’s still early.”

It was only 10 o’clock now. In the past, Chu Muyu would not stop until she had drunk until 12.

“What? You’ll accompany me?”

“Aren’t you uncomfortable? Let’s just go to a place and continue drinking. I’ll watch over you.”

“Getting to know me better and better, ha!”

Chu Muyu smiled, rubbing Su Xin’s hair.

Su Xin now felt that this girl was truly scum. Was it that she really did not care about Lin Xiaohuan, or did she think Lin Xiaohuan’s heart was just that strong, able to resist all the harm she brought her?

But it was also true that the few words she said to Lin Xiaohuan yesterday were nothing compared to the things she did to Lin Xiaohuan when she was drunk before.

Chu Muyu thought that Lin Xiaohuan would definitely not care about those things.

But she never expected that it was just those few words that completely made Lin Xiaohuan’s psychological defense line collapse.

Su Xin, just like Lin Xiaohuan’s usual appearance, silently followed beside her.

“Why aren’t you talking?”

Chu Muyu felt it was uninteresting and pouted her lips. It’s back to the old way again, no fun.

“What do you want to hear?”

They were now on the way to the next location. It was summer, and summer nights were usually very lively. There were still many pedestrians on the road, and the barbecue stalls on the side were doing good business.

“Do you want me to ask if you’re tired?”

“Hey, this is a very good topic. I’m telling you, I’m simply annoyed to death right now. You tell me, what’s so good about him? If I go out and look, I don’t believe I can’t find a better man than him.”

“Mhm, you can find one. So?”

“So how are those women better than me? Are they better at talking than me, or are they more obedient than me, or are they better-looking than me? Xiaohuan, tell me, am I good-looking?”

“Good-looking.”

“Then why does he still two-time⁴!”

“Aren’t you clear in your own heart about the reason?”

“Wow, you speak much more incisively than before. Did I provoke you yesterday, so it made you enlightened⁵?”

Chu Muyu walked in front of Su Xin. She was wearing high heels and was a small half-head taller than her. She pinched Su Xin’s face, looking wronged.

“Am I not your favorite little sweetie⁶ anymore? How can you say that about me?”

“Oh, not anymore.”

“I will be when your anger subsides.”

Chu Muyu pouted, humming a song as she walked.

Chu Muyu had truly been spoiled by Lin Xiaohuan these past five years.

Lin Xiaohuan treated Chu Muyu as the person on the tip of her heart⁷. Whatever she wanted, she would try her best to get it for her, listen to her words, and endure all her behaviors.

Day after day, year after year, the thought that Lin Xiaohuan would never leave her was deeply rooted in Chu Muyu’s heart.

Now Lin Xiaohuan was gone. Her wish before death was for Chu Muyu to fall in love with her, and then abandon her. Tsk, how cruel.

Perhaps this is a case of because of love, hatred is born⁸.

Trampling on a sincere heart comes with a price.

In the following time, Su Xin was in a bar, sitting to one side, listening to Chu Muyu talk and drink.

The time got later and later, and Chu Muyu’s consciousness became more and more blurry.

“Xiaohuan, you tell me, he is indeed handsome, but it’s not like there aren’t other handsome men. His body is indeed very good, but I’ve seen plenty of men with good bodies. He’s neither the richest one I’ve seen, nor the one who likes me the most. I still don’t understand why I have to wrangle with him for so long, and still can’t let go now.”

“It’s probably because he’s the first man who dared to two-time while dating you.”

“Hmm? His dog guts⁹ are indeed very big.”

“You think he’s very special. You don’t actually like him that much, you’re just unwilling to admit defeat.”

Su Xin’s voice was like she was inducing her. She had no idea if Chu Muyu liked Wu Yubing or not. She didn’t care if she liked him before; anyway, the first step was to twist her concepts around.

“Is it like that? But every girl who was with him said he was very good, but every man who broke up with me said I was very bad.”

“You actually don’t like him that much. If he were like those men you dated before, and dated you honestly, you probably would have dumped him in less than five months.”

Chu Muyu did not speak, just finished another glass of wine, her finger tapping on the side of the glass.

Su Xin felt that this mission’s difficulty should not be very high, because Chu Muyu was still like a child who had not grown up. Her thinking model was not that of an adult at all, and she had not yet entered society. She would not think so complicatedly, so this mission should be very easy.

Making a child like you is very simple, but making an adult like you is very difficult.

Chu Muyu was drunk.

Su Xin struggled to support her, hailed a taxi, and stated her destination.

The Chu residence.

Chu Yanxi was in her pajamas in the study reading documents when someone knocked on the door.

“Enter.”

It was Butler Uncle Chen¹⁰.

“Miss Muyu is back, but she’s drunk. Her friend brought her back.”

“Male or female?”

“A little girl.”

Chu Yanxi frowned with some displeasure. It was already nearly dawn, and she was only just coming home, and drunk at that. This was not proper at all.

“Was she like this before?”

“Miss Muyu doesn’t come back often. This is also the first time I’ve seen her drunk.”

Chu Yanxi only then realized she had been too lax in disciplining Chu Muyu. She knew nothing at all about her friendships, daily life, or the school she attended.

Forget it. She was adopted anyway, just an illegitimate daughter for my brother’s sake. I never planned for her to achieve anything to bring glory to our Chu family.

Sister-in-law’s two children are quite outstanding. Chu Yanxi put down the documents in her hand, planning to go down and see.

Su Xin was supporting Chu Muyu and had just entered the doorway when she saw the woman in pajamas preparing to come downstairs.

Very good-looking, very full of temperament, and very easy to provoke.

Her slightly curled long hair revealed a woman’s charm. That face looked mature but not old.

Chu Yanxi was only thirty years old now. She had adopted the ten-year-old Chu Muyu when she was twenty. She was still in her best years.

“Hello, Auntie.”

Su Xin greeted her politely.

Chu Yanxi’s first impression of this girl, who looked very full of lingqi¹¹ at a glance, was very good. But looking at the dead drunk Chu Muyu, who was muttering something and smiling foolishly, her expression turned not so good again.

Su Xin of course knew what Chu Yanxi was unhappy about, because she had already obtained this person’s information before, so she knew what Chu Yanxi hated the most.

Chu Yanxi was very disgusted by chaotic male-female relationships. Her parents’ family had broken up for this reason.

Chu Yanxi’s mother was rather fierce and upright. When she discovered her husband’s affair, she immediately chose divorce, threw her daughter to her dad, and chose to remarry.

Chu Yanxi’s dad also found a stepmother later. In short, the environment was a mess. The first thing Chu Yanxi did when she took power was to drive those people out.

She was thirty years old now and still did not get close to male beauty¹². From this, one could see her aversion to this kind of thing, giving the feeling that she would be single for a lifetime and dedicate herself to her career.

But the Chu family’s business, after all, needed to be inherited by someone capable, so the Chu family was not very peaceful. But this was not Su Xin’s concern.

“Help her into her own room. Thank you for bringing her back. It’s so late now, it’s not safe for a girl like you to be outside. Just stay here for the night.”

Chu Yanxi said with a faint expression. A servant who had not yet rested quickly came over and took Chu Muyu from Su Xin’s hands.

Su Xin let go of Chu Muyu and noticed Chu Yanxi’s gaze was fixed on her hand.

It was summer now, so everyone wore short sleeves.

There was still a scar on Su Xin’s wrist. That long scar on the slender, fair wrist looked especially glaring.

The author has something to say:

Xin-jie: Isn’t Chu Muyu lacking a mother’s love? So I’m going to be her mom.
