The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 682, really promising (8)

Having said that, Zhao Zhe hastily hung up the call.

Mo Su let her hands hang down, her expression obscure.

That day, Zhao Zhe was clearly tempted by the conditions she proposed; how could he possibly have had a change of heart at the last minute?

Did Li Mochan find out about this, and Zhao Zhe reneged because of his threat?

Mo Su abruptly stood up, grabbed her car keys, and hurriedly left the office.

On another front.

After tossing aside his phone, Zhao Zhe lay on the bed with a somber face.

"Old Zhao, who was that just now?" Mrs. Zhao inquired.

"Don’t even mention it, if not for the young Miss of the Mo Group, I wouldn’t have ended up in this predicament," grumbled Zhao Zhe, feeling his temper flare up.

He had sustained injuries all over his body, and even his shares had been lost.

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao cooled down and handed him the medicine, "Take your medicine first, the doctor said you need to rest and avoid getting angry now."

Zhao Zhe let out a sigh, filled primarily with regret.

Not long after, there was a knock at the door.

Mrs. Zhao went to open it, and the faint scent of perfume wafted in.

"Who might you be?"

Mo Su took off her sunglasses, her demeanor indifferent, "I’m here to see Zhao Zhe."

As she said this, she walked straight into the hospital room without any hesitation.

Seeing Mo Su arrive uninvited, Zhao Zhe was taken aback.

"Vice President Mo, you..."

How did she know he was here?

Mo Su glanced over him, noting his injuries, and surmised something.

She probe tentatively, "President Zhao, what happened to you?"

"Had a little accident on the road, just a minor car crash," Zhao Zhe said, his gaze shifting evasively.

Mo Su could see that he was trying to brush her off and she got straight to the point, "President Zhao, there’s no need to beat around the bush with me. Let’s cut to the chase. Did you suddenly refuse to sell your shares to me because Li Mochan found out about our deal?"

Zhao Zhe showed a troubled expression and fell silent.

After a while, he heaved a heavy sigh, his face clouded with gloom.

"It wasn’t Li Mochan, it was Ye Jiuliang. That day, right after I left the café, she took me away and beat me up. She bought off the shares I had as well."

That wretched girl, Ye Jiuliang, was simply too ruthless.

Mo Su’s eyes narrowed slightly; so it was Ye Jiuliang who was causing trouble behind the scenes.

Now that she knew, there was no need for her to hide any longer.

"Vice President Mo, I just want to heal in peace right now and there’s nothing else I can help you with. I can’t afford to offend Ye Jiuliang either," Zhao Zhe said, exhausted.

Mo Su glanced at him dismissively and turned to leave the hospital room.

Ye Jiuliang, we shall see.

After leaving the hospital and returning to her car, Mo Su took out her phone and made a call, "Find out where Jiang Yisheng is right now, and take him into custody."

Once the call ended, she casually tossed the phone aside, a flicker of icy ruthlessness passing through her eyes.

Ye Jiuliang, I really want to see whose bargaining chips are greater.

...

Dark clouds churned, and the rain began to weaken.

In the vast living room, the taut atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

Two men in black knelt on the ground, their bodies marred with wounds, as if they had just experienced a fierce battle.

Suddenly, a teacup came flying toward them, smashing to pieces in front of them, porcelain shards scattering.

"Bang—"

"Chu Chen and Li Mochan have truly fallen out?" The old master Mo’s breathing was labored, his face ashen as he asked.

"Did you indeed hear it with your own ears?"

The heads of the kneeling men sank even lower, and one of them spoke first, "We indeed heard it ourselves. That night, we infiltrated the J State base, and not long after, we encountered people from the Dark Hall. It turned out that they had also received information, hearing that the K organization had a shipment at the J State base, so Li Mochan led his men to hijack it. We never expected to run into them and Chu Chen in combat."

"Li Mochan seized the opportunity to steal K organization’s goods, Qia Mian was captured, and we only escaped with our lives amidst the chaos."

"You bunch of good-for-nothings, Qia Mian got captured, and you still fled back here? Don’t you know to cover his escape first?" Mo Yu slammed the table and cursed furiously.

She had searched through Qia Mian’s lab but had not found the medicine that Mo Yuan was taking, not even the prescription, making her furious.

Old master Mo’s frown deepened, and he continued, "Did Li Mochan claim he was robbing the goods to avenge Ye Jiuliang?"

Another man in black said, "Yes, Li Mochan indeed said so. He also mentioned that Chu Chen is foolish, unable to discern right from wrong due to the gratitude he feels for his master’s upbringing; he said that protecting Mo Lingling will lead to regret sooner or later."

In an unseen corner, a vacant look fluttered in the eyes of a man in black, like a puppet under someone else’s control.

After a moment’s thought, the old master Mo swept his gaze over the two men kneeling on the ground, suppressing a surge of anger, feeling extremely troubled.

He gave the Mo butler a knowing look, and the latter nodded in understanding.

The Mo butler addressed the two men in black, "The two of you, come with me."

"Yes."

Once they had left, only the old master Mo and Mo Yu remained in the living room.

"Father, Qia Mian is still very useful to us. How about we send more people to rescue him?" Mo Yu said, unable to contain herself.

The old master Mo knew her intentions well; after all, it was all for the sake of Mo Yuan.

What ambition.

He glanced at her and snorted coldly, "Mo Yu, with everything that’s happening now, you’re still only thinking of yourself."

Mo Yu shifted her gaze awkwardly, lacking confidence as she said, "Father, Qia Mian is very useful to us, and he knows a lot about our affairs. If he can’t withstand Chu Chen’s interrogation and reveals us all, wouldn’t that be very disadvantageous to us?"

"Qia Mian won’t betray us," the old master Mo stated with conviction.

As long as the Mo butler was still working by his side, Qia Mian would not betray him.

"But..." Mo Yu was still not convinced, wanting to persuade the old master to send more people to rescue Qia Mian.

Before she could finish, the old master Mo cut her off, his voice cold, "Qia Mian has always held out, saying nothing, and Chu Chen and his men won’t keep him alive. It’s unlikely he’ll make it back alive."

"Don’t hold out too much hope. The pressing matter is to find Leng Yi for me. Qia Mian himself said Leng Yi’s medical skills are superior to his. As long as you can make Leng Yi work for you, what is there to worry about?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

With the old master’s reminder, Mo Yu suddenly remembered the existence of Leng Yi.

Yes, without Qia Mian, if Leng Yi could be made to work for her, what did she have to worry about? If Leng Yi was willing to take orders from her, he would definitely be more useful than Qia Mian.

Enlightened, she bowed deeply to the old master Mo, "Father, I understand. I will definitely find Leng Yi as soon as possible and recover the iron box."

Seeing that she had finally come to her senses, a hint of satisfaction appeared on the old master Mo’s face, "Mo Yu, you should understand what is more important. Without the Mo Family, you won’t have anything, not even Mo Yuan. The Mo Family is your greatest support."

Mo Yu nodded, "I understand."
