Chapter 948 - How Could Fu Huai’an Not Understand Cen Mo’s Words

Song Yao was so shocked that she couldn’t close her mouth. She propped herself up with one hand, her clear and pitch-black gaze filled with perplexity. “You were even saying that Mom would be full of anticipation toward this child as well!”

Song Yao mentioned that she had ruined the diary belonging to Cen Mo’s mother the other day. Back then, Cen Mo had stroked her stomach and said that his mother would be more concerned about the child in her stomach and wouldn’t blame her for ruining her diary.

After keeping silent for a moment, Cen Mo nodded. He looked seriously toward Song Yao, then raised his hand to tuck her stray hair behind her ears, his unfathomable gaze filled with seriousness. “If you don’t want to give birth, then I won’t force you to. As long as you don’t escape, anything works!”

Cen Mo really loved Song Yao a lot. Compared to having a child… what Cen Mo wanted the most was for Song Yao to stay by his side.

Song Yao bit her lip, and her nose slightly moved as tears flowed down the corners of her lips. “Who said that I’m going to escape? It’s true that I’m afraid… but I also want to bear a child for you!”

It was said that a woman had to love a man to a great extent to be willing to bear a child for him!

Song Yao hoped that Cen Mo could understand that she would still give birth to this child no matter how scared she was. She hoped that Cen Mo would realize how much she loved him from this!

Cen Mo hugged Song Yao tightly in his arms and said softly, “Go to sleep!”

Song Yao snuggled into Cen Mo’s embrace, and her breathing quickly became slow and regular…

A while later, Cen Mo’s phone vibrated on the bedside table. He held up Song Yao’s head, gently withdrew his arm, and picked up his phone to take a look at it. He headed to the balcony and frowned as he dialed Fu Huai’an’s number.

…

Fu Huai’an had never been one to sleep much. After accompanying Lin Nuan until she had fallen asleep, he got up to do work.

Fu Huai’an had just switched on his computer and got connected with Lu Jinnan when his phone, which was placed on the side of his desk, started to vibrate.

He glanced at it. After feeling surprised that it was Cen Mo, he spoke to Lu Jinnan before picking up the call, then went to draw the curtains…

“Hello…”

On the other end of the call, Cen Mo heard Fu Huai’an’s deep voice. He said, “You’re too unreliable. Since you took Li Muyang back to the United States to monitor him, then put more effort into it. Li Muyang’s assistant, Ah Zhan, called all the way to Morocco!”

Fu Huai’an’s action of drawing the curtains paused. The glass reflected Fu Huai’an’s deep, composed, and mature features. He pulled the curtains and asked, “He called you?”

“It was the cousin of Ah Zhan, who works for Li Muyang. Ah Zhan called his cousin and then got his cousin to find a way to get in touch with me…” Cen Mo looked at Song Yao, who was deep asleep in bed, through the full-length mirror. He tapped his cigarette ash and said, “I sent someone to investigate that person’s relationship with Ah Zhan. They are indeed cousins! There might be some truth to what he said!”

“What did he say?” Fu Huai’an asked.

“It was just about asking me for help to save that person in exchange for a few businesses, or something along that line…”

Fu Huai’an’s lips curled up slightly, and his eyes were filled with smiles. “What do you want from me in exchange for this information?”

“Let Tuan Tuan stay at my place for a week!” Cen Mo said. “Tuan Tuan can’t be away from you and Lin Nuan. He’s introverted and shy, so… I can only trouble you and Lin Nuan to bring Tuan Tuan to stay at the Cen residence for a week. Just treat it as letting Lin Nuan come and accompany Song Yao as well!”

Given Fu Huai’an’s status, after assessing the advantages and disadvantages, Cen Mo would still choose to work with “Mr. Moral” and not Li Muyang, who was already confined.

The few businesses might seem tempting, but in fact, without a strong supply source, they’d be useless. He might end up being under Li Muyang’s control instead.

Cen Mo wanted to get into firearms, but without making sufficient preparations, he could only continue to wait.

Moreover, after learning that Tuan Tuan was Lu Xiangsi’s child, his mentality toward handling matters concerning Fu Huai’an… had changed a little.

It could be because there was a child that connected the two of them via blood ties that he’d show more care.

Fu Huai’an’s lips curled up into a smile. “I’ll discuss this matter with Xiao Nuan later on.”

“It’s fine as long as you agree! There’s Song Yao to convince Lin Nuan…” Cen Mo tapped away some cigarette ash before continuing the serious talk. “Ah Zhan will be contacting the people over here at 3 am in Morocco. Get your men to keep an eye out. That Ah Zhan… in fact, Li Muyang as well, it’s best not to keep the both of them! This is to prevent any future problems for me. Otherwise, if Li Muyang turns the tables around and then learns that Ah Zhan got people to contact me before, he’ll seek revenge on me!”

Fu Huai’an didn’t say anything. He pulled out the chair and took a seat, reading the email that Lu Jinnan had just sent him.

The email was about Ran Chaoqian’s family, who were trapped in the United States. The government had sent over the reason for detaining them in addition to the relevant documents.

Fu Huai’an had been a lawyer previously and had stayed in the United States for a few years. He was very familiar with the law there, and Lu Jinnan didn’t trust leaving things to the lawyer they found there. Therefore, he sent over the documents for Fu Huai’an to take a look.

Fu Huai’an had just opened up the email when he heard Cen Mo say, “I feel that you and Gu Qingcheng are too soft-hearted. Since you’ve already decided to detain Li Muyang and take over De Niro Company, then you should eliminate the roots entirely, breaking all of Li Muyang’s wings! Especially this Ah Zhan. He isn’t old… but he has a lot of tricks up his sleeves! He even secretly hid a satellite phone! Have you been away from the circle and in the normal world for so long that you’ve forgotten about the dangers, thinking that you’re a normal person? Or have you become old and soft-hearted?”

How could Fu Huai’an not understand Cen Mo’s words…

It wasn’t as if Fu Huai’an hadn’t thought of eradicating them completely.

It was just that people could be driven to take desperate action. Therefore, Fu Huai’an tended to hold back when he took action. Only by letting Li Muyang feel that there was hope for him to retaliate would he remain quiet for a while.

However, it was true that Ah Zhan had taken Fu Huai’an by surprise. Gu Qingcheng probably hadn’t expected that even after they had searched through the De Niro residence, there would still be a satellite phone hidden.

“Fu Huai’an, even if it’s not for yourself, you must do it for Tuan Tuan’s sake! After all, to the public, you’re Tuan Tuan’s father!” The reason Cen Mo was saying these things to Fu Huai’an was for Tuan Tuan’s sake.

“I know. I’ll discuss the matter of staying at your place with Xiao Nuan!”

After hanging up the call, Fu Huai’an switched on the video call and saw Lu Jinnan with his eyes lowered, looking at his phone while frowning and smoking.

Fu Huai’an put down his phone and asked, “You’re waiting for Bai Xiaonian’s call or message?”

When Lu Jinnan heard this, he puffed out a mouthful of smoke, hiding his fatigued eyes. He tossed the phone casually on the desk. “No…”

His action seemed more like he was giving himself away, making Fu Huai’an even more certain that Lu Jinnan was waiting for Bai Xiaonian’s call.

“Have you met Bai Xiaonian?” Fu Huai’an asked.

Lu Jinnan put out his cigarette and nodded. “I did…”

Fu Huai’an could have let Tang Zheng be the one to go to the United States this time around. However, it was because Bai Xiaonian was in the United States that Fu Huai’an forcibly sent Lu Jinnan over.
