Chapter 1004: Chapter 1000: Starting today, we’re getting to the main topic.
As soon as Wen Xin had spoken, he thought of something, and she looked at Wen Huai somewhat shocked, “You didn’t come here with my foster father, did you?”
“Why, does my coming here confuse you that much?”
Just then, a deep voice came from upstairs, and both Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi turned around and looked up to see Mr. Jiang supporting Mr. Bai as they walked down from upstairs.
Wen Xin watched the two men’s intimate actions, let go of Mu Chengxi’s hand, walked over to Mr. Bai’s side, and supported Mr. Bai’s other arm.
“Grandfather, you were about to tell me that you and my foster father have some connection, weren’t you?”
Although Wen Xin was tentatively speaking, everyone present was smart enough to know what she was thinking, so Mr. Bai straightforwardly did not avoid the question.
She felt that it was time now, not a time to evade issues, if she could just straightforwardly answer Wen Xin’s questions.
“My relationship with Xiao Jiang is indeed deep; if it weren’t for the appearance of your father, Xiao Jiang might have been my son-in-law, but it doesn’t matter that he isn’t my son-in-law, he is also my godson.”
“Although the titles are different, the status is the same,” Mr. Bai said while patting Mr. Jiang’s hand to express his feelings.
After exchanging pleasantries, Mr. Bai looked at Wen Xin, who was eagerly attending to him, smiled faintly, and then raised his hand to pat the back of Wen Xin’s hand, speaking in a gentle tone.
“Did you come here for the Shadow Alliance matter?”
As Mr. Bai spoke, he walked towards the direction of the sofa.
Seeing Mr. Bai walking over, Mu Chengxi, quick-eyed and quick-handed, walked over to Mr. Bai’s side, took over from Mr. Jiang, and respectfully called out, “Grandfather.”
Hearing Mu Chengxi’s polite address, Mr. Bai smiled knowingly, raised his hand, and gently patted Mu Chengxi’s shoulder, responding with satisfaction.
“Xiao Jiang and I have discussed that you two have already gotten engaged in Beijing, although there were some hitches along the way, but eventually you two are settled, and when we all go to Beijing, we will finalize your and Wen Xin’s arrangements, pick an appropriate time, and have a wedding so you can joyously take my precious granddaughter home!”
After speaking, Mr. Bai looked at Mu Chengxi with satisfaction, his eyes full of approval, really liking Mu Chengxi as a young man, and he was very satisfied to entrust Wen Xin to him!
Hearing Mr. Bai express such satisfaction with him and even make decisions on his behalf, Mu Chengxi’s voice calling “Grandfather” grew sweeter and sweeter.
“Grandfather, rest assured, I will treat Wen Xin well and ensure she is never wronged!”
“Yes, that’s good, that’s good, your assurance puts me at ease!”
Mr. Bai was looking at Mu Chengxi, about to say something else, but Wen Xin directly interrupted him.

“Grandfather, was the Shadow Alliance matter your doing?”
Wen Xin did not have the patience to listen to their pleasantries; she only wanted to know what exactly was going on with the Shadow Alliance, as it was very important to her.
Listening to Wen Xin interrupt the conversation between herself and Mu Chengxi, Mr. Bai smiled faintly, giving Wen Xin a knowing look, mistaking her interruption for embarrassment caused by his words.
“Yes, I was indeed the one behind the Shadow Alliance actions! I’ve tolerated the Old Fox for many years, but not only has he not shown restraint, he’s become even more audacious. Thus, I’ve decided not to endure it any longer. I intend to give him a good thrashing by taking down his Shadow Alliance.”
“However, on reflection, this Shadow Alliance of the Old Fox is indeed very secretive. Had I not stumbled upon it by accident, I might have never discovered the whereabouts of the Shadow Alliance in my lifetime.”
Upon saying this, Mr. Bai laughed like a child, clearly very pleased.
Seeing Mr. Bai so happy, Wen Xin was aware that his heart also harbored anger, and now it was being vented. She felt this was a good thing.
“Grandfather, why didn’t you tell me when you decided to act?” While Wen Xin was very happy about the incident, she pondered the potential troubles if the controlled had been from the Bai Family.
She didn’t want Mr. Bai to face such dangers at his age.
“Grandfather, you know I came to Independent State to address these troubles. I want to regain control of Independent State and eliminate the Elders Guild and the Old Fox’s Dark Empire.”
As Wen Xin spoke, her mood suddenly dipped.
The oppression of hatred weighed on her heart; though many years had passed, she was still unable to let go. She still hoped that one day she could tell her parents at their graves that she had not let them down.
She had achieved it, allowing Independent State to develop smoothly.
Mr. Bai looked at Wen Xin’s expression and sighed softly. How could he not understand Wen Xin’s thoughts, but how could the cancer of Independent State be so easily eradicated?
“Wen Xin, I understand your thoughts, but you also know that the Old Fox won’t easily surrender. His current inaction doesn’t mean he has submitted; rather, he’s waiting for the right moment to strike, so you still need to be careful!”
Wen Xin sat beside Mr. Bai, stretched out her arm, and gently hugged him. “Grandfather, I originally hoped you could enjoy your golden years, but I did not expect to cause you worry. Leave the rest to me; I will surely make you proud!”
Having said that, Wen Xin took out her phone and dialed Alfredo’s number. This time, she was truly about to take action.
Alfredo sat in his office, looking at the incessantly blinking phone, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, then he picked up the phone.
When Alfredo saw the caller ID, his whole body involuntarily shuddered, his hand holding the phone also trembled slightly, then he pressed the answer button.
Once the phone was connected, Alfredo’s demeanor became composed and his voice unconsciously calmed down.
“Hello, what’s the matter for calling?”
Hearing Alfredo’s perfunctory tone, Wen Xin’s beautiful brows unconsciously furrowed. It was the first time, in their long acquaintance, that he had spoken to her with such a tone.
Since Alfredo spoke to her formally, Wen Xin didn’t waste many words and said quite casually, “I want to convene a high-level meeting for Independent State tomorrow. I expect people from the Elders Council and the director to attend because I have matters to discuss with them.”
