Chapter 576: A Higher-up Wants to See Yun Xi

At the gates of Jing High School, two military green special vehicles were parked one behind the other, with a large black car parked in the middle.

From this formation, anyone walking could guess that the car in the middle must be that of someone with a special ident.i.ty.

After a while, the princ.i.p.al led Cla.s.s 3’s homeroom teacher and Yun Xi out of the school in a hurry.

It was during cla.s.s time, and they didn’t want to disturb other cla.s.smates. Yun Xi didn’t have any idea who was looking for her, and even the princ.i.p.al was alarmed.

In the black car, Special a.s.sistant Lin kept staring at the entrance of the school. When he saw these three people coming out, he reported to Mu Chongli, who was looking at doc.u.ments behind him, “Sir, the people have come outside of the building.”

After speaking, he pushed open the door and got out of the car. He stood up tall and straightened his dark green suit before he walked forward. “Princ.i.p.al Zhao, I will take her now. I will bring her back to you safely afterward.”

Princ.i.p.al Zhao nodded politely and turned to look at Yun Xi. “Yun Xi, some higher-up has said that he wants to see you, so go with Special a.s.sistant Lin. They will bring you back shortly, so don’t worry.”

Yun Xi guessed that they were talking about Young Marshal Mu’s father, the person who had previously been in charge of the Mu Clan. She wouldn’t have been able to go to see him even if she had wanted to. Since this important person had humbled himself to seek out Yun Xi personally, something important must have occurred.

Yun Xi raised her eyes and glanced at the young Special a.s.sistant in front of her. She couldn’t help but size him up. This person’s position couldn’t be less than Feng Rui and Qi Yuan’s positions.

This person who really wanted to see her was probably either a big boss or someone with a prominent status.

She tilted her head and glanced at the army green vehicles guarding the black car. Every person in both of the vehicles was wearing a suit, so it was obvious that the person who wanted to see her was a special person.

She had already guessed who she was going to see, and she’d known that there would be a day like this ever since she’d met Mr. Mu during the first aid treatment she’d carried out for Madame Si.

After all, the ident.i.ty and background of anyone close to Mu Feichi needed to be verified to prevent anyone from approaching him with ulterior motives.

And she was no exception, especially since Mu Feichi made a lot of exceptions for her.

As his father, he was probably worried about her ordinary background and the fact that she was very young.

Mu Feichi hadn’t expected that as soon as he’d left town his father would seek out Yun Xi.

Special a.s.sistant Lin turned his head to look at Yun Xi, and nodded politely, “Miss Yun, my Master wants to see you.”

Yun Xi nodded, then turned around and looked at Teacher Xu. She smiled and nodded her head. “Teacher Xu, I want to ask for a day off. I will be back to cla.s.s if there’s time.”

“Okay! Be careful!”

Special a.s.sistant Lin opened the car door and waited. Yun Xi bent down and got in the car. She raised her eyes to look at the man in formal attire sitting opposite her.

The car was a bullet-proof commercial vehicle with two rows of seats facing each other, so she was now facing Mu Chongli, who had bold brows and deep eyes.

Special a.s.sistant Lin raised the divider in the car, and the back-seat compartment suddenly became a closed-off s.p.a.ce.

The car started slowly. Yun Xi took a deep breath, clasped her hands on her knees, and politely said, “Mr. Mu, h.e.l.lo.”

Her calm, composed tone suddenly tore through the stiff atmosphere in the car.

Mu Chongli put down the file in his hand and looked at the girl who was sitting opposite him.

She was wearing a khaki wool coat, and her long hair was tied into a ponytail. On her calm little face, her clear eyes were pure and innocent. She didn’t show the slightest discomfort or even panic because of his appearance.

Obviously, she looked like a little girl, but her clear eyes appeared so unfathomable that he couldn’t read her.

In other words, her eyes were perfectly pure and clear. There wasn’t any contamination or adulteration of the adult world in them.

He had seen all kinds of people during the process of climbing to where he was today. At her age, it was remarkable that she could still be so calm when she was in front of him. There weren’t many people who were neither obsequious nor fearful.

She was the first one he’d ever met.
