The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 677. Venting Anger for Ye Jiuliang (Three More)
Upon receiving the urgent news, the Mo butler immediately woke from his sleep and hurriedly ran towards the room of Elder Mo.
Dawn was breaking, and the sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the corridor.
Without considering whether the elder was still asleep, he reached out and knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
The knocking was both urgent and fierce.
Elder Mo had always been a light sleeper and was easily awakened.
He sat up, startled and groggy.
"Come in."
The Mo butler pushed the door open, saw that Elder Mo was awake, and dashed over.
"What’s got you so flustered?" Elder Mo asked with displeasure.
"Elder, we just got the news, Qian Mian has been captured."
Elder Mo instantly snapped to attention, his expression clouding over, "What did you say?"
"Qian Mian is caught. Our people have been captured by K organization, except for two who escaped," said the Mo butler.
"What exactly happened?" Elder Mo showed a flash of anger and banged on the bed, "Wasn’t it supposed to be foolproof? How could they be caught by K organization?"
"According to the two that escaped, Chu Chen realized that Qian Mian had sent people to infiltrate the base, and he had already laid an ambush there, just waiting to catch them all in one go," the Mo butler reported gravely.
"Moreover, we received another piece of information; last night, people from the Dark Hall raided the J-state base and took a batch of goods; K organization has announced that from now on, they will be completely opposed to the Dark Hall."
Upon hearing this, Elder Mo fell into a calm contemplation before his brow furrowed even deeper, "You’re saying the Dark Hall’s people raided K organization’s goods?"
"Yes, that’s what Qian Mian’s subordinates said. Li Mochan and Chu Chen had a quarrel and even fought on the spot. They say Li Mochan did it to take revenge for Ye Jiuliang," explained the Mo butler.
Elder Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp light glinting within.
Take revenge for Ye Jiuliang?
It was hard to say how much truth and how much falsehood was in that statement.
"By any means necessary, rescue Qian Mian. If that fails, send people to capture Gu Xinuo for me."
Using Gu Xinuo to threaten Chu Chen, he won’t be able to resist.
"Yes."
"Also, capture Mo Lingling and bring her back to me for questioning personally."
"Understood, I’m on it," said the Mo butler, as he turned to leave the bedroom.
Qian Mian was his cousin; he was more anxious than anyone.
If Mo Lingling really had duped them, he certainly wouldn’t let her off easily.
The atmosphere grew tense and silent.
After pondering for a moment, Elder Mo took out his phone and made a call, "Mo Su, speed up the execution of the second plan."
When Mo Su received a call from Elder Mo in the middle of the night, she was puzzled. But the next second, upon hearing Elder Mo’s words, her expression changed.
"Grandpa, has something happened?"
Even in his urgency to deal with Li Mochan, Elder Mo wouldn’t call in the middle of the night unless something urgent had come up, prompting him to accelerate the plan.
"Qian Mian has been captured, and we’ve been outplayed," Elder Mo said, his face unable to conceal his anger.
Qian Mian was always careful; Chu Chen couldn’t possibly have known about their plan in advance unless it was Mo Lingling who had deceived them with false information, allowing Chu Chen to catch them in a trap.
Knowing the importance of Qian Mian, Mo Su felt her heart skip a beat. She said, "I understand. I’ll speed up things with MK Group. However, Grandpa, if I start buying shares from MK Group’s shareholders, it will definitely cause a commotion, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to hide it from Dad."
Currently, Tengyue Group was under her father’s control; if he found out, it wouldn’t be so easy for her to proceed with these plans.
"Just go ahead with it. If your father has any objections, let him come to me directly."
"I understand, Grandpa. Rest assured, I will take down MK Group as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, old Master Mo’s face warmed up a bit, "As long as you can secure MK Group this time, I will transfer all of Mo Yuan’s shares into your name, Mo Su, you should be aware of the great expectations I have for you."
"Yes." Mo Su’s eyes flashed with a fierce determination, everything of the Mo Family would eventually be hers.

With nothing to do at home besides meal times, Mo Chen had been soaking in his room, piecing together building blocks.
According to Mo Su, he probably never had been this serious even in class.
"Why is it always not right, if only Sister Ajiu were here," Mo Chen muttered while he searched for pieces among the building blocks.
Too engrossed in the world of building blocks, he didn’t even notice Mo Yuan entering his room.
"Mo Chen."
A deep voice suddenly rang out, startling Mo Chen, causing the building blocks in his hand to fall to the ground.
He looked up to see Mo Yuan, his gaze puzzling, "Dad, what are you doing here?"
Wasn’t this the time he was usually in the office?
Seeing his confusion, Mo Yuan rarely offered an explanation, "There wasn’t much to do at the company today."
His gaze fell upon the messy building blocks on the carpet, and he couldn’t help but think of Ye Jiuliang.
"Dad, what happened to your hand?" Mo Chen, with sharp eyes, noticed the bandage hidden under his sleeve and showed concern.
"It’s nothing, just a minor burn." he said.
Mo Chen uttered an "Oh."
The father and son faced each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"Why did you buy so much candy?" Mo Yuan glanced at the glass jar on the desk, breaking the dreadful silence.
"I didn’t buy it, Sister Ajiu gave it to me, you can’t buy this outside," Mo Chen lifted his head, his tone exuding pride.
Mo Yuan raised an eyebrow, suddenly recalling the candy Ye Jiuliang had given to Mo Chen in the living room the last time.
The little girl who loved candy, he smiled faintly.
"Dad, do you want to try some?" Mo Chen got up, took two candies out of the glass jar, and eagerly presented them to Mo Yuan.
"It’s really tasty."
Mo Yuan glanced down at the candies in his palm, his expression indifferent, inscrutable as to what he was thinking.
After a while, he reached out to take the candies, and Mo Chen flashed a big grin.
Suddenly, it felt like his father was a tad warmer today than before.
His eyes shifted, looking at him with expectancy, "Dad, are you free today, how about we invite Sister Ajiu out for a meal?"
"Invite her for a meal?" Mo Yuan paused.
Mo Chen nodded frantically, his little mouth moving rapidly, "Sister Ajiu is going back to M country soon, and she rarely comes here, she has taken good care of me in the capital, we should properly host her, shouldn’t we?"
Mo Yuan’s brows lifted slightly, suppressing a smile, "Then you contact her."
He agreed so readily that Mo Chen was the one taken aback.
Did his father mean he agreed?
"Dad, so it will be just the two of us inviting Sister Ajiu for a meal?" he asked tentatively.
He certainly had not planned on including his mother and that Master Extinction.
To prevent a perfectly good meal from being spoiled by the two of them.
What he thought was exactly what Mo Yuan had in mind, "Hmm."
Father and son, for once, had a tacit understanding on this matter.
Mo Chen smiled brightly, "Then I’ll contact Sister Ajiu right away."
