âSee, only a not-so-smart person like you would think that Mo Lian was behind this,â Qin Yuan took the opportunity to mock her.
âWhat did you say?â Huo Yu immediately rushed up and wrestled with Qin Yuan. Unfortunately, she was quickly subdued by Qin Yuan. Qin Yuan did not want to hurt Huo Yu, so he only grabbed her wrists and did not make any unnecessary movements.
âQin Yuan, youâre hurting me!â Huo Yu cursed in a low voice.
There was actually a hint of crying in her words.
Qin Yuan was so scared that he immediately let go of Huo Yu. He did not expect that the little girl was actually faking it. She took the opportunity to step on his foot ruthlessly. Then, she walked back to Huo Zhenâs back triumphantly.
âHuo Zhen, you take care of your sister.â
âAll of you, be quiet!â Mo Yanâs safety was at risk, and he was not in the mood to watch them flirt.
âI have to go back. Since Mo Yan went missing at the charity gala, there must be some traces left behind.â Huo Zhen rubbed his aching head.
âNo, itâs too risky for you to go back! They have been looking for you all over the world. Wouldnât you be falling into a trap if you go back?â Qin Yuan objected as expected.
Huo Zhen had dealt with those people all year round, so it was impossible for him not to know their methods.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYes, you canât go back. Besides, Mo Yan might already been taken away to another city. Iâll send someone to look for her now,â Huo Yu added. It was rare for her to see eye to eye with Qin Yuan on the matter.
âI know, but I have to go back.â Seeing that Qin Yuan still wanted to persuade him, Huo Zhen added, âIf it was Huo Yu who was kidnapped, would you still stop me?â
Qin Yuan fell silent. The atmosphere was also a little strange.
âI wonât answer a hypothetical question,â Qin Yuan quickly added. Unfortunately, Huo Zhen and Huo Yu had already noticed his panic.
Huo Yu pretended not to care and looked elsewhere. Her expression was very interesting.

âYour dinner for today.â The man threw a box of rice that resembled a pigâs food in front of Mo Yan. He himself was chewing large pieces of beef with a smug look on his face.
Mo Yan used her spoon to mix the box of rice a few times, but she had no appetite at all.
âHurry up and eat. I wonât let you starve to death. If you donât want to eat, Iâll just pour it into your mouth!â
âOf course Iâll eat. I donât want to starve to death.â Mo Yan rolled her eyes at the man. âBut I really canât eat this. Then again, if I get too scrawny, he wouldnât be willing to spend so much money to buy me.â
The man looked at Mo Yan up and down. What she said sounded very reasonable at first glance.
Mo Yan wouldnât look good if she became thin due to hunger, and it would be troublesome if she couldnât retain Su Haiâs attention.
âThen what do you want to eat? Iâll prepare it for you, all right?â The man compromised, feeling that Mo Yan was quite interesting.
âI want to eat chicken drumstick. That isnât too much to ask, right?â Mo Yan glanced over and squeezed out a smile to look at the man.
âOkay, Iâll buy it for you,â the man gritted his teeth and agreed quite straightforwardly.
Soon, he brought chicken drumsticks back.
Mo Yan began to eat it in front of him. However, she secretly hid the chicken bones in a place that the man could not see.
She had no choice but to come up with such a scheme; the man previously searched her body and took away all the sharp objects on her.
âMy buddy has already told Su Hai about your situation. I hope he will be willing to spend money for you as you said.â
He had also released the news to Huo Zhen. After all, he could not put all his eggs in one basket.
After saying that, the man stood up and went out, closing the door heavily.
Mo Yan moved her feet and walked to a remote corner. She squatted down and took out the chicken drumstick bone that she had just hidden, rubbed it on the ground, and sharpened it bit by bit.
She looked extremely nervous, afraid that she would be discovered by the man.
Meanwhile, Huo Zhen had already gotten off the plane using his alias, Luo Tao. He was completely silent.
Qin Yuan and Huo Yu had wanted to tag along, but Huo Zhen rejected them. Since his identity of Luo Tao was already exposed, by going back, he was essentially putting himself in danger. There was no need to drag two more people down with him.
Having been demanded a large sum of money by Mo Yanâs kidnapper, Huo Zhen was willing to fork out the money. However, he wouldnât tolerate the kidnapper touching his woman.
He sneaked into an alley and hid completely in the darkness. Like a hunter waiting for his prey to take the bait, he quietly watched.
Bang!
A sharp gunshot pierced through the night sky. Huo Zhen killed the assassin chasing after him with one shot. Then, he pointed his pistol at the other personâs chest.
âDonât move, or Iâll shoot. At such a close distance, even if you donât die, I can still make a hole in your body.â
