r muttered to himself, then picked up the call: "Wife, where are you""Husband, I'm already at the hotel. The Hyatt Hotel, the place we met for the first time," Mu Han's tone was incredibly sweet. "Whe...Chapter 540: Mu Han's New Job - Wuyou Chinese Network

Summer and Mu Han got into the car, and Mu Han said, "Take us to Peking University."

"No problem." Hou Xiaqi didn't ask what they were doing at Peking University. He started the car quickly and drove in that direction.

At this moment, Summer asked with a hint of displeasure, "Hey, why did you call me Why isn't Meiyu coming to find me"

Mu Han looked at Summer strangely. Had Meiyu also been seduced by her husband Her husband must be very capable if he could even handle Meiyu!

"Uh, Meier has been very busy these days. With the group leader not around now, she needs to take charge of Team Sky. However, since she is not officially the leader, some people in the team are not entirely obedient to her orders. Although nobody openly defies her, there are quite a few who secretly ignore her instructions. Also, she's still trying to find out where the group leader has gone, so she’s quite busy and overwhelmed," Hou Xiaoqi explained on Meier's behalf. As for whether Meier was really this guy's wife, he actually didn't know. Last time when he did not go to Li Family, he overheard others saying that Xia Tian called Meier his wife. Although Meier didn’t explicitly agree, she also didn’t deny it, which in Hou Xiaoqi’s view, amounted to a tacit acknowledgment.

Therefore, Hou Xiaoqi still offered an explanation for why Meier wasn't here. What he said was the truth and not just an excuse. To be frank, apart from Team Leader Zhao Mingfeng treating Xia Tian specially, perhaps only Hou Xiaoqi really had some good feelings towards him among everyone in Team Sky. After all, Xia Tian had once saved Hou Xiaoqi's life, so Hou still felt quite grateful toward him.

As for the other members of Team Sky, even though they knew about Xia Tian and were aware that this guy was very powerful, it was unlikely for them to have any good feelings towards him. They barely had any interactions with him after all.

"Some people in Team Sky don’t listen to Meier That’s easy then! Just bring me over there later, and I’ll beat up whoever doesn't listen!" Xia Tian casually said. How dare these guys ignore his wife's words They deserved a beating!

"Well… if it comes to that, Meier can also handle the situation," Hou Xiaoqi helplessly said. If things could be solved through violence, there wouldn’t be so many problems in the first place.

Hou Xiaqi didn't know that Xia Tian always favored straightforward violence, but Mu Han was quite clear about this. So she hurriedly interjected to prevent Hou Xiaqi and Xia Tian from continuing their conversation on the topic for hours: "Hou Xiaqi, what do you want from us"

Upon being asked by Mu Han, Hou Xiaqi finally remembered his real purpose and quickly replied: "Mu Han, I actually have something important to talk to you."

"Why are you looking for my wife" Xia Tian was immediately displeased.

"Uh, don't misunderstand. It's official business," Hou Xiaqi hurriedly explained and then asked another question: "Mu Han, I heard that the Dragon Team has retired you, right"

"That's correct. I no longer have any connection with the Dragon Team now." Mu Han nodded.

"There's a new job opportunity. Are you interested" Hou Xiaqi asked again.

"What kind of new job" Mu Han was actually quite curious. She currently had no fixed occupation, although she still had some savings. If her money ran out, Summer could support her during the summer months. However, the issue was that she couldn't afford to be idle all day long. According to her previous plans, she intended to look for a job after returning to Jianghai with Summer. But if Hou Xiaqi really had an appropriate job for her in Beijing, she wouldn’t mind finding work there.

"The Earth Group hasn't had a group leader for several years now. You should be aware of this situation," Hou Xiaqi said.

Mu Han nodded: "Yes, I know. But isn't Sun Bowen currently acting as the interim group leader"

"That's right, but someone still needs to take on the role permanently." Hou Xiaqi paused for a moment before finally revealing the crux of the matter, "Mu Han, Meiyu wants you to be this group leader."

"What" Mu Han was greatly surprised, "Let me be the leader of the Earth Group"

Hou Xiaqi's proposal completely caught Mu Han off guard. It was important to note that the Earth Group’s status was second only to the Heaven Group. Although there wasn’t a direct hierarchical relationship between the Heaven, Earth, Yellow, and Azure Groups and the Dragon Group, everyone in these special systems knew very well that, in terms of genuine standing, any one of the four groups surpassed the Dragon Group. The Heaven Group held an exceptional position while the Earth Group’s status was slightly weaker than the Heaven Group but still far superior to the Dragon Group.

Mu Han had previously just been a spy within the Dragon Group. Although her status in the group was higher than that of ordinary members, becoming even a regular member in the Earth Group would have been extremely difficult for her. Now, she was being asked to take on the role of leader of the Earth Group. This sounded quite unbelievable and seemed too good to be true.

The Heaven, Earth, Azure, and Yellow Groups had long been controlled by the Zhao, Qian, Sun, and Li four great families. The Zhao family managed the Heaven Group, the Sun family handled the Earth Group, the Li family oversaw the Azure Group, and the most low-key Yellow Group was managed by the equally discreet Qian family. These four great families had always maintained a tacit understanding to preserve this balance.

That meant that even if Mu Han possessed the capability to lead the Earth Group, the Sun family would never agree to let someone not named Sun take charge of it. This was the reason that perplexed Mu Han because Hou Xiaqi and Mei’er couldn’t have been unaware of this fact.

"That's right, Meier did mean it." Hou Xiaqi stressed that this was Meier's intention; perhaps he himself also found it somewhat surprising.

"But will Sun Bowen agree" Mu Han couldn't help but ask. Of course, what she wanted to know wasn't just whether Sun Bowen agreed or not, but more importantly, if the Sun family would approve.

"It's not up to him!" Hou Xiaqi sneered. "Right now, the only reason Sun Bowen can still keep his life is that they should be thankful for their good fortune."

Mu Han was taken aback again: "Is something wrong with the Sun family"

"The Sun family hasn't encountered any problems yet, but if they insist on holding onto Group E, things might take a turn for the worse." Hou Xiaqi snorted. "Sun Bowen actually dared to lead people from Group E in an assassination attempt on Meier; of course, we'll have to settle this score with them!"

"What" Mu Han was even more shocked. "Sun Bowen actually led his group to assassinate Mei'er When did this happen"

"It happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival," Hou Xiaqi explained. "Leader Zhao also had an incident that night. Mei'er was ambushed by Sun Bowen in Jianghai City, sustaining serious injuries. Fortunately, she found Xia Tian before losing consciousness; otherwise, Mei'er might have already died in Jianghai City."

"So it was that idiot Sun Bowei who injured Mei'er's wife! As soon as I see him, I'll take him down!" Xia Tian interjected at this point. He had always been unaware of who had hurt Mei'er until he heard about it from Hou Xiaqi.

Mu Han finally started to understand something and muttered to herself: Could it be that Mei'er is repaying her husband for saving her life by becoming his a moment before curling her lips. "You're indeed quite handsome—no wonder you got plastic surgery!"The surrounding area erupted into laughter, and the boy's eyes flashed with annoyance but quickly re...
