Translator: 549690339
Wen Jin’s eyes flickered a bit, gazing at Wen Ran’s beautiful features, he said softly, “Ranran, you’ve heard before that Gu Kai’s younger sister was always missing. Actually, she was not lost; it was a robbery. Previously, we did not know that you were Gu Kai’s sister, Director Gu’s daughter.”
Wen Ran subconsciously tightened her lips, repressing the shock in her heart.
She was unclear about the specific reasoning of Gu Kai’s sister’s disappearance.
Previously, Mo Xiuchen had suggested telling her Gu Kai’s family story, but later, for some reasons, he didn’t.
Now, she finally understood why Mo Xiuchen was jealous of her other brothers, but not jealous of Older Brother Gu, and he even tried to give her more opportunities to interact with Older Brother Gu.
“Dad only knew someone paid a high price to buy the murderers to kill you, and didn’t know who exactly that person was. How could a child like you offend anyone? Thus, they guessed it might be your biological parents who offended someone.”
“Then, were my dreams from my childhood real?”
Wen Ran’s brows furrowed slightly, the dreams she had from childhood until now, must be real.
The boy in that dream was real as well, and it’s highly probable that he was Mo Xiuchen, who is just outside the ward.
All of this matched up perfectly.
“I cannot specify this, maybe some parts are real, while some are reflections of the mental trauma you suffered from your childhood injury, therefore, it appears in your dreams.”
Ever since Wen Jin decided to tell Wen Ran about her background, he had been trying to come up with the best explanation that would resolve Ranran’s doubts and make her believe.
Therefore, when he said this, he was neither flustered nor chaotic, but he spoke thoughtfully and slowly.
Outside the ward, Mo Xiuchen finished his phone call with Qin Mu, put away his phone, his deep eyes quietly focused on the door.
He asked Qin Mu to contact Uncle Ming again, asking him to help find out where Xiao Wenqing was.
Originally, he wanted to use her fear to make her go to Wu Tianyi and disconcert him.
But last night, Xiao Wenqing had her face scarred by the old man, wavered between life and death for a while, she ran away overnight. Whether she would immediately go find Wu Tianyi or not was an uncertain question.
What made him most uneasy was Xiao Wenqing hiding in the dark.
And being pushed to a dead-end by Mo Jingteng, whatever she did next, would be frantic and ruthless.
He wasn’t afraid of her coming at him, the only thing he was worried about was that she might hurt Ranran.
He must find Xiao Wenqing as soon as possible. Furthermore, Wu Tianyi had given up the pharmaceutical factory before.
Now, Mo Xiuchen had forced him to the position, where he would rather abandon Linhui and not show up. This was somewhat unexpected.
While Mo Xiuchen was in deep thought, the elevator door at the end of the hallway opened and Gu Kai walked out.
He strode towards Mo Xiuchen, looking at him standing in the hallway. He calmly asked, “Is Ranran alone inside?”
Mo Xiuchen nodded.
It was likely that, for a while, Wen Ran and Wen Jin would not finish their conversation in the ward. He signaled Gu Kai to the smoking area, where both of them lit their cigarettes, took a deep puff, and then held the cigarette between their fingers.
“Your granddad and Mo Zixuan have already left the hospital. Xiao Wenqing had transferred the money to another account in advance, withdrew it, then stored it elsewhere, now…”
Gu Kai exhaled a puff of smoke, then briefly informed Mo Xiuchen.
His expression was cold, he gave no opinions about Mo Jing’s affairs.
Just taking in the cigarette and exhaling smoke rings, watching as the curling smoke in front of him slowly dispersed. The cold air he exudes, gradually intensified.
The phone suddenly rang.
Gu Kai’s words were interrupted. Mo Xiuchen took out his phone, glanced at the incoming call, and picked up the phone, “Hello!”
“Mo Xiuchen, I already told Uncle Ming, he said he would do his best and help us find Xiao Wenqing as soon as possible, I have bad news, Wu Tianyi has not left his villa so far, I think… he might have run away secretly.”
“What happened?”
Mo Xiuchen’s expression darkened as he blurted out the question.
At his side, Gu Kai’s brows furrowed slightly confused at the scene. His gaze was fixed on Mo Xiuchen.
“I have had someone keeping an eye on Wu Tianyi’s every move these last few days and he has not let up even at night.
But this morning, up till now, there’s been no sign of Wu Tianyi going to work. Just now, they thought something was wrong, so they went to knock on his door, only to find out from the maid that their master was not at home.”
“So when did he leave?”
“I don’t know, the maid said she didn’t know.”
A touch of annoyance flashed in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, he cursed, “Just have them withdraw for now.”
Wu Tianyi must have received some news from Xiao Wenqing.
His illicit affair with Xiao Wenqing had been exposed. He was afraid Mo Jing would have him killed. So he simply ran away.
Xiao Wenqing was prepared ahead of time, if she was exposed she would leave the Mo family and Mo Jing. Wu Tianyi on the other hand probably wasn’t as prepared. Even if he ran away, he still had a home and a company.
“I asked them to stay there for now. Wu Tianyi can’t completely disappear in such a short time. He will definitely make contact with the company eventually. I have already reported the case to the local police station.
All the evidence we collected previously, including Linhui’s affair, should be enough for the police to start looking for Wu Tianyi.”
Qin Mu told Mo Xiuchen his thoughts, having heard this, Mo Xiuchen contemplated and then agreed, “Alright, have them stay there. Call me immediately if there’s any news about Wu Tianyi.”
“Mhmm!”
After he hung up the phone, Gu Kai asked with concern, “Did Wu Tianyi run away?”
Mo Xiuchen nodded. His thin lips pressed into a rigid line, his features lined with frost, he replied in a deep voice, “Wu Tianyi ran away quite unexpectedly. Actually, there was no need for him to run.”
“With his escape, doesn’t it give you the perfect opportunity to take over his base?”
Mo Xiuchen smirked, “This is a given, however, Wu Tianyi and Xiao Wenqing must have quite a bit of savings. Xiao Wenqing didn’t take a small amount of money from the old man over the years. They could just find a place to hide. That would be enough for us to look for them for several years.”
Last night, Mo Jingteng was adamant about dealing with Xiao Wenqing.
At that time, Mo Xiuchen sent a message to Ah Mu, asking him to notify the people watching Wu Tianyi to keep a closer eye on him.
He had not expected that Wu Tianyi still managed to slip through.
Perhaps, Wu Tianyi knew he was being watched…
“Now it’s no use worrying about it. Since Wu Tianyi has given up everything in H City and G City, you might as well take it over. After all, you can’t let him live freely and continue to make money.”
After finishing his sentence, Gu Kai looked again in the direction of the ward, unsure of what Wen Ran and Wen Jin might be discussing inside.
Seeing him looking towards the ward, Mo Xiuchen said lightly. “Not only should the company be taken over, Wu Tianyi and Xiao Wenqing need to be found as soon as possible. Ranran has been inside for quite a while, they should be almost done talking, why don’t we go and see?”
