"Hmph," Chi Huan sneered heavily, "Even if you didn't personally instruct someone to kidnap her, it still has something to do with you. Mu Xi really has some shortcomings, and Mo Shiqian will definitely count them among you. If I can't take revenge on you, I will take revenge on the clod-sur you value most."
After saying that, she hung up the phone directly.
He held the phone tightly with his fingers, and after a while, he turned around and threw it onto the table of the desk.
… …
Chi Huan didn't want to waste his time, so he didn't even take the initiative to call him. He edited a text message after much thought.
In the end, I didn't even eat dinner, so I lay on the desk for an unknown amount of time, and finally fell asleep.
Until her cell phone rang, waking her up from her dream...
When I woke up from a trance, I looked at the dark sky outside. I was confused for a moment. There was cold sweat on my forehead and back. My body felt better and hot, but my heart felt lonely and cold.
The words "Mu Mo" lit up on the screen. Without thinking, she picked up her phone and clicked to answer it. She couldn't wait to ask, "How's it going?"
The man's voice was low and slightly tired, "I will go back to Lancheng tomorrow. You can have a good rest at home tonight."
After a moment of silence, she asked again, "How is Mu Xi's matter... going?"
"She was kidnapped on her way home from school. I'm here to track down clues,"
He paused for a moment, probably hesitating for a few seconds whether to tell her or not, and then gave a brief summary, "If I'm not mistaken, the other party is a transnational human trafficker group, and they suddenly kidnapped Mu Xi, there should be someone Sending the message to them."
His tone was almost understatement, but no matter how superficial the description was, Chi Huan could tell that the matter was very difficult.
Like Lawrence said, compared to him kidnapping Mu Xi, it was more terrifying if it wasn't him.
It's so... vicious.
Chi Huan hesitated for a few seconds, then reminded, "Just in case...should I have the money ready?"
"Feng Xing is getting ready."
She breathed a sigh of relief, "How much do you think this matter...has to do with Lawrence?"
Mo Shiqian's deep voice was a bit cold and sarcastic, "He didn't instruct his subordinates to do it, he gave them 'suggestions'."
Chi Huan asked gently, "Have you been busy and never had a break?"
"I'm fine."
Her voice seemed to be softer again, "You are injured...be careful. Although I know you are not in the mood, humans are made of flesh and blood...you still have to eat and sleep."
He hummed in a low voice, "Just take care of yourself, huh?"
She was originally ready to hang up, but that thought kept lingering in her mind, and she couldn't help but say, "Mo Shiqian..."
She just started and he knew what she wanted to say.
"I know you are thinking, if you break up with me now, will Lawrence help me find Mu Xi."
It's not that he can't find it, or he will definitely not find it, but that no matter how powerful a person is in this world, unless he is cold-blooded and doesn't care, no one would dare to risk his loved ones.
There is no doubt that clod-sur's strength is stronger than that of him and Feng Xing combined or even Xiao Yu.
Mo Shiqian said calmly, "He won't take action. Even if we break up now, even if I am willing to compromise now, he won't, because he didn't let Mu Xi be kidnapped to force you to break up with me. It’s to make me feel powerless, to force me to seize more power... Only in this way can I take over, run the business well, and reassure him.”
Transnational human traffickers are undoubtedly very troublesome, involving the underworld, the police, foreign and international police, and even diplomacy.
So at least, Lawrence won't take action now.
What he wants is not to force him to inherit, he wants to force him to get what he desires from his heart.
Money can communicate with ghosts and gods, and businessmen are just businessmen. But as long as you have enough money, power, officialdom, the underworld, the army... there is no power in this world that money can buy.
If you can't buy it, you just don't have enough money.
Lawrence never wanted more than a compromised heir.
What he wants is an heir just like him.
You can't marry Chi Huan and force them to break up because they are not a good match, because Chi Huan's life experience is stained, and because... an heir who regards women as more important than power or even more important than himself is unqualified.
There are too many obstacles, too many weaknesses, and you cannot stand at the top. Even if you barely reach it, you will be easily torn down.
Otherwise, how could the ancient emperor be called a widow
… …
Chi Huan went down to eat something.
Maybe it was because I was deeply disturbed by psychological trauma, so I developed a subconscious defense mechanism.
The more you feel emotionally broken and anxious, the more important it is to maintain a healthy life.
Otherwise, physical and mental decadence and self-abandonment will in turn deepen the original collapse.
So she ate, forced herself to read, and slept.
… …
Near dusk the next afternoon, Mo Shiqian returned to Lancheng.
His legs are inconvenient, so he uses a wheelchair when not necessary and needs the care of bodyguards.
Chi Huan originally wanted to pick her up at the airport, but Mo Shiqian didn't allow her to go because of the cold weather. Originally, he didn't allow her to go because of her temperament, but An Ke refused to see her off...
Although Lawrence had no intention of touching her, at this juncture, she naturally would not choose to go out alone.
She didn't know if he was in the mood to eat, or if he was busy with Mu Xi's affairs as soon as he came back, but she still went into the kitchen again, and this time she cooked three dishes.
Two vegetarian and one meat.
The man called her on the way back from the airport, "Huanhuan, I'm going to meet Fengxing in 1999. You can eat at home."
She opened her mouth and originally wanted to agree, but she changed her mind and asked cautiously, "Do you want to call Feng Xing over... Can you guys talk at home while eating?"
Mo Shiqian was silent for a few seconds, "Okay."
She immediately said, "Yeah, I'll ask the kitchen to cook a few more dishes."
After hanging up the phone, although there were already enough dishes for several people, she ran back to the kitchen and asked them to stir-fry a few more dishes if they had any remaining ingredients.
Forty minutes later, because the airport was far away, Fengxing in the city center arrived first.
In the living room, the two of them waited for Mo Shiqian to come back.
"How is the investigation on Mu Xi going?"
Feng Xing frowned and smoked two cigarettes in a row, "After she was kidnapped, she was taken directly to Mexico."
"Why go so far away? Is that their base camp?"
"I don't know if it's the base camp, but the security in that place is backward, wars are frequent, and it's far away from our forces. Moreover, the police may be working with the gang, so they can't control it... Unless we contact the peacekeeping troops there, but time is running out. The trickiest thing is,"
He narrowed his eyes, showing no frivolity and carelessness. His eyes were extremely cold and mocking, "Human trafficking groups and drug dealers are the least moral and humane."
