Chapter 76: Aftermath and Undercurrents: Hidden Dangers Emerge
The scream of "Ah——" stopped abruptly, and there was only a busy tone on the other end of the phone.
Mo Han stood up suddenly, and a chill ran from his feet to his head.
"Warmth!" he growled, snatching up his coat and rushing out.
In the study, documents were scattered all over the floor, and Wen Nuan's cell phone fell to the ground. The screen was still on, showing the call history with him.
The air was filled with a subtle scent of unfamiliar perfume. Mo Han's eyes darkened. This smell...
Not warm.
In the next few days, Mo Han used almost all the strength he could to look for warmth, but found nothing.
No one is seen alive, and no body is found after death, as if they have disappeared from the face of the earth.
Everyone in the Mo family was in a panic, and all kinds of rumors were spreading. Some said that Wen Nuan had fled for fear of being punished, some said that she was kidnapped by the Mo family's enemies, and some even said that Mo Han had "done" her himself.
Mo Han turned a deaf ear to these rumors. He only knew that his warmth must still be waiting for him somewhere.
Although the conspiracy of Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San was exposed, some projects of the Mo family's enterprises were still affected, and some partners adopted a wait-and-see attitude, which undoubtedly made the situation worse.
"You're so bald!" Wen Nuan couldn't help but complain as she looked at the pile of documents.
Although her whereabouts are unknown now, let's switch our perspective to her side - that's right, she wasn't kidnapped, nor was she "killed", she was just...
Hiding.
Why hide?
The reason is simple. She needs time to deal with those wavering partners. By the way...
Give some people a "surprise".
With the help of her previous connections in international cooperation projects, Wen Nuan contacted several important partners.
She did not cry and complain, nor did she make hysterical accusations. Instead, she calmly explained the situation to them and demonstrated the strength of the Mo family business.
"The Mo family's strength is there. Short-term fluctuations will not affect our long-term development. I guarantee it with my personality." Her tone was firm, her eyes were sharp, and she exuded strong confidence and charm.
A few old foxes were very shrewd. They took a wait-and-see attitude at first, but under Wen Nuan's strong offensive, they gradually wavered and finally expressed their willingness to continue cooperation.
"She is worthy of being my wife, she is awesome!" Mo Han looked at the good news and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the hidden warmth.
Of course, he didn't know where Wen Nuan was hiding at the moment.
This is their little secret.
Wen Nuan stretched and looked at the stock price trend returning to normal on the computer screen with a satisfied smile.
"Next, it's time to deal with those little mice hiding in the dark." She muttered to herself, with a cold glint in her eyes.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" Wen Nuan asked warily.
"It's me." A deep voice came from outside the door, "Butler Lin asked me to bring you something."
Wen Nuan's heart tightened, and she quickly encrypted and hid the files on her computer.
Housekeeper Lin of the Mo family's old house has always been respectful to her and Mo Han, and it is impossible for him to contact her alone at this critical juncture.
Then, there is only one possibility left...
There are still remnants of the power of Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San!
She took a deep breath and opened the door calmly.
A strange middle-aged man was standing outside the door. He was thin, with a twinkling look in his eyes and holding a food box in his hand.
"Butler Lin asked me to bring some snacks over, saying that you, Madam, have worked hard." The man lowered his head, his tone respectful, but with a barely perceptible stiffness.
Wen Nuan looked at him calmly, took the food box calmly, and said lightly: "Thank Butler Lin for me."
The man nodded slightly and turned to leave.
Wen Nuan closed the door, locked it, and put the food box on the table.
Instead of opening it, she took out her cell phone and called Mo Han.
"Honey, where are you?" The warm voice was sweet, like honey.
"I'm waiting for you in the garden, my dear wife." Mo Han's voice was filled with a smile, so gentle that it could squeeze water out of it.
"Guess what surprise I have prepared for you?"
"Oh, I don't want to guess, I just want to see you soon~"
Wen Nuan hung up the phone, but a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
surprise?
She wanted to see what kind of "surprise" it was.
She opened the food box, which contained several exquisite pastries, emitting an enticing aroma.
Wen Nuan picked up a piece, put it to her nose and sniffed it, and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
This scent...
Something is wrong!
At the same time, in the Mo family garden, Mo Han gently picked a bright rose for Wen Nuan, put it in her hair, and said softly: "You are the most beautiful scenery in the Mo family." Wen Nuan snuggled in his arms with a happy smile on her face.
"Hubby, I..." Wen Nuan was about to speak, but her face suddenly changed and she covered her mouth and started to retch.
"What's wrong?" Mo Han held her nervously, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Wen Nuan shook her head and pointed at the food box with a pale face, "The cakes..."
On the other side, the man who delivered the pastries walked to a secluded corner, made a phone call, and whispered, "The goods have been delivered..."
Wen Nuan held her forehead, her face as pale as a piece of paper.
Mo Han immediately asked someone to call the family doctor. At the same time, his eyes swept across the exquisite food box sharply, and a chill spread from the depths of his eyes.
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly!" His tone was cold, as if he was a Shura from hell.
The doctor arrived quickly and after an examination, determined that Wen Nuan had been poisoned by some kind of chronic poison. Fortunately, the dose was not large and it was discovered in time, so there was nothing serious.
"Fortunately, it was discovered early. Although this poison is not fatal, long-term use will gradually damage the body and even lead to infertility in severe cases." The doctor said solemnly.
Infertility?
!
Wen Nuan and Mo Han looked at each other and saw shock and anger in each other's eyes.
This is clearly directed at them, and it is for warmth!
What a cruel method!
Wen Nuan suppressed her discomfort and tried hard to recall the family documents she had seen before.
Those vague records seemed to be related to Lin, the housekeeper of the Mo family's old house, but she didn't take it seriously at the time.
Now it seems that this housekeeper Lin might have been bribed by the remnant forces of Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San a long time ago!
"Honey, I remember seeing a document before..." Wen Nuan spoke weakly and told Mo Han her discovery.
Mo Han immediately asked someone to retrieve the document, and at the same time, he began to take action.
He summoned some members who had been suppressed by Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San, but who had always remained just and loyal to the Mo family.
These people have long been dissatisfied with the actions of Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San. Now that they see that Mo Han is willing to uphold justice, they naturally express their support and are willing to help Wen Nuan and Mo Han find new hidden dangers and completely eliminate the family cancer.
"Master Mo Han, don't worry, we will fully cooperate!"
"As long as we can eliminate the harm to the Mo family, we will do our best!"
For a time, undercurrents surged within the Mo family, and a new storm was brewing.
At the same time, in the old house of the Mo family.
Butler Lin stood by the window, looking at the garden in the distance with a sinister look in his eyes.
"How's it going?" a deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Everything went well." Steward Lin sneered, "But..."
"Just what?"
Butler Lin paused, his tone a little hesitant: "I always feel that something seems to be wrong..." He put down the phone, looked in the direction of Wen Nuan and Mo Han, and a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.
He picked up an antique ornament on the table, stroking it gently, his eyes flickering.
"Damn it, they won't..."
The more Butler Lin thought about it, the more he felt a chill down his spine, and an ominous premonition enveloped him.
Mo Han is no pushover. He looks dashing and charming on weekdays, but when he gets really ruthless, he won't recognize anyone.
"No, I have to strike first!" Butler Lin gritted his teeth, and a sinister plan gradually took shape in his mind.
He first found a few family servants who loved to gossip and were eager to create chaos, and spread rumors with exaggeration, saying that Wen Nuan and Mo Han's poisoning incident was self-directed and self-acted. The purpose was to gain sympathy, consolidate their position in the Mo family, and eventually seize power.
"Tsk tsk tsk, think about it, Young Master Mo Han used to be a notorious playboy, and now he has suddenly changed his personality, who would believe it? Who knows what bad things this young couple might be planning!" Butler Lin pretended to be heartbroken and successfully incited a small number of family members who were unaware of the truth.
These rumors spread quickly in the Mo family like a virus, and some people who originally supported Mo Han and Wen Nuan began to waver, and some even openly questioned their motives.
Wen Nuan was so angry when she saw these rumors that she almost fainted.
"Butler Lin is such a fox!" She hated him so much that she wanted to rush to the old house and tear his mouth apart.
Mo Han was much calmer. While comforting Wen Nuan, he asked people to secretly investigate the source of these rumors.
"Don't be anxious, wife. The innocent will be cleared. We are upright and have nothing to fear from our own shadows." He stroked the warm hair gently, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He knew that Steward Lin was just a small fry, and there must be a bigger force behind the scenes controlling everything.
After some investigation, Mo Han discovered that Butler Lin had been in frequent contact with a mysterious person recently. This person's identity and background were very hidden, and even Lawyer Wang could not find any clues.
"Interesting, it looks like we've caught a big fish." Mo Han had a playful smile on his face, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He decided to play along and deliberately spread some false information to confuse the forces behind Butler Lin, and then secretly follow Butler Lin to see who he was in contact with.
That night, Butler Lin left the Mo family's old house stealthily, and Mo Han and Wen Nuan immediately followed him in their car.
Butler Lin drove all the way to a remote abandoned factory in the suburbs. He looked around vigilantly and made sure that no one was following him before he slipped into the factory.
Mo Han and Wen Nuan parked the car far away and quietly approached the factory under the cover of night.
Inside the factory, under the dim light, Steward Lin was standing respectfully in front of a tall man, reporting something with his head lowered.
"...Everything has been done according to your instructions."
The man had his back to Mo Han and Wen Nuan, so his face couldn't be seen clearly, but from the powerful aura emanating from him, one could feel that he was no ordinary person.
"Very good." The man's deep voice sounded with a hint of a cold smile, "Next, wait and see the show..." He slowly turned around, revealing...
"It's you?!" Butler Lin widened his eyes in horror.
