1253: Makes Sense

Makes Sense

The golf course remained green and lush despite it already being fall. Jiang Chenghuan and Zhao Yumo had already arrived and had started playing.2

Huo Tingxiao was watching the two of them having fun while he sat under an umbrella and sipped on his drink, waiting for the last two people to get there.

Descending from the golf cart, Mu Feichi led Yun Xi onto the course. Noticing their arrival, Jiang Chenghuan and Zhao Yumo stopped playing and approached them.

"Man! You two are late. It would be a waste not to play golf in such cool weather." Huo Tingxiao laughed.

Jiang Chenghuan handed Zhao Yumo a bottle of water before looking at Yun Xi with a cunning smile on his handsome face. "Looks like there's going to be a huge shift in Jingdu's power rankings now. The Han family and the Qiao family are really going at each other's throats. Yun Xi, are you planning to turn the whole place upside down or what?"

Yun Xi raised her head to look at Jiang Chenghuan innocently with her sparkling eyes.

"Did I do something? I'm just a university student. I don't have any power or money. Those people are all the top guns in the business world. How could such a nobody like me do anything to them?"

After hearing that, Jiang Chenghuan almost spat the water out of his mouth.

He couldn't believe that Yun Xi would actually have the nerve to say that.

What? Are you pretending to be innocent? Are you calling yourself someone without power and money? With the Young Commander backing you up, there's no one who dares to go against you except for the President.

Jiang Chenghuan scolded her in his head. The balance of power in Jingdu had been maintained for years and now was about to be toppled. Yun Xi was at the center of the shift. Despite that, Mu Feichi had never even once tried to stop her.

The moment she said she wanted to bring one of the big four wealthiest families down, the three noble clans had been dragged into the mess as well. The three clans were forced to unconditionally support her.

Even the President could not force them to do something like that.

"Also, I wasn't the one who orchestrated all the incidents that happened to the Han family recently. They are the ones who have been targeting me, and the Qiao family used this as their chance to climb up in the rankings. The Qiao family wanted to use the Han family as a stepping stone. Who am I to help the Qiao family make such a decision?"

What Yun Xi said made a lot of sense. The only problem was that she was the mastermind behind everything that had happened, a mastermind who never showed herself and got what she wanted by using other people.

Jiang Chenghuan could not find any fault in her words.

In fact, Yun Xi never publicly made any moves. Even if Mu Feichi did help her, all he did was form a partnership with the Han Corporation and the Qiao Corporation through normal joint bidding procedures.

The incidents that had happened to the Qiao Corporation and the Han Corporation all had to do with their own companies and had nothing to do with Yun Xi or Mu Feichi.

However, it was clear that both of them were the ones controlling the chess pieces and Jingdu was their chessboard.

Seeing that Yun Xi was still able to act innocently in front of him, Jiang Chenghuan suddenly realized that this little lady and Mu Feichi were two huge schemers.

That was why they were such a good match.

Anyone who managed to piss them off would only suffer a humiliating defeat.

Jiang Chenghuan coughed and wiped his mouth before saying, "Well...that does make a lot of sense..."

Zhao Yumo then approached him from behind and scowled at him. "Look at you. Have you ever seen any of the successful people take credit for things like this?"

"You're right. You're always right." Jiang Chenghuan coughed, and he scratched his nose.

Yun Xi turned to smile at Zhao Yumo for siding with her. "Yumo, I didn't know you were so good at playing golf. I don't even know how to swing a golf club. Why don't you teach me?"

"I'm just an amateur!" Zhao Yumo laughed. "It's better if you ask someone who's at a professional level to teach you. You know? Like the Young Commander?"

Knowing that the group of friends had been playing golf for a long time, Zhao Yumo could tell that Mu Feichi was very good at it.

"I think they have something to discuss. Let's go!"

Yun Xi then turned to nod at Mu Feichi before pulling Zhao Yumo away.
