From an abandoned girl to a wealthy lady

Chapter 77: Dangerous Exploration of Dragon's Lair: The Conspiracy Gradually Revealed

The man slowly turned around, revealing a face that shocked Steward Lin and even Mo Han who was hiding in the dark - it was actually Second Uncle Mo!

"Second Uncle?!" Mo Han couldn't help but let out a low cry, but fortunately he covered his mouth in time.

Wen Nuan also widened her eyes in surprise. This plot development was too exciting!

Housekeeper Lin widened his eyes in horror and stammered, "Second... Second Master... Why... Why are you here?" Second Uncle Mo sneered, "What? I can't be here? But you, why don't you stay in the old house in the middle of the night and run to this wilderness?" His tone was gloomy and his eyes were sharp, as if he could see through people's hearts.

Steward Lin was sweating profusely and hesitant for a long time but couldn't explain what was going on.

"It seems that we have caught a big fish." Mo Han raised a playful smile and pulled Wen Nuan out of the darkness.

"Uncle, long time no see." He spoke in a relaxed tone, as if it was just a chance encounter.

Seeing Mo Han and Wen Nuan suddenly appear, Uncle Mo was obviously stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure. He narrowed his eyes, looked Mo Han and Wen Nuan up and down, and sneered, "You are following me?"

"Uncle, you're joking. We were just taking a walk after dinner and happened to walk here." Mo Han shrugged with an innocent expression.

"Really? That's what a coincidence." Uncle Mo said with a forced smile.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense and the air was filled with gunpowder.

Butler Lin's eyes rolled and he suddenly shouted, "Catch them!" Before he finished speaking, several men in black suddenly rushed out and surrounded Mo Han and Wen Nuan.

"Second uncle, what are you doing?" Mo Han asked in surprise.

"What? Of course..." Uncle Mo smiled sinisterly, "I'm giving you a big gift!"

Mo Han's eyes flashed, and he protected Wen Nuan behind him, saying in a deep voice, "If you want to touch her, you have to get past me first!"

A fierce fight broke out instantly.

Mo Han was agile and his moves were deadly. The men in black were no match for him and were quickly knocked to the ground.

When Butler Lin saw this, his face changed drastically. He knew that he had hit a wall this time.

"Run!" Butler Lin shouted in horror and turned around to escape.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Mo Han sneered, rushed forward, grabbed Butler Lin's collar, and threw him to the ground.

"Cough cough..." Butler Lin coughed painfully, his eyes full of fear.

Mo Han looked down at him with a cold tone: "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

Butler Lin's eyes flickered and he didn't dare to look directly into Mo Han's eyes.

At this moment, a cold voice came from a distance: "It's me."

Mo Han and Wen Nuan turned their heads at the same time and saw a tall man slowly approaching, followed by a group of men in black, approaching with menacing momentum...

The man slowly approached, revealing a familiar yet unfamiliar face under the dim street light.

It turned out to be Uncle Mo San!

There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were sinister, staring at Mo Han and Wen Nuan like a poisonous snake.

"Third uncle? Why is it you?" Mo Han's tone was filled with disbelief. He didn't expect that the mastermind behind this was actually his own third uncle.

Uncle Mo smiled contemptuously: "Why? Are you surprised? My dear nephew."

Steward Lin seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw. He crawled behind Uncle Mo and cried, "Uncle San, save me! They want to kill me!" Uncle Mo waved his hand impatiently, "Alright, shut up! Useless thing!"

"Uncle San, what do you mean?" Mo Han protected Wen Nuan behind him, staring at Uncle Mo San and the man in black behind him with vigilance.

"What do you mean? Of course it's to clean up the mess!" Uncle Mo San gave an order, and the men in black behind him rushed forward and surrounded Mo Han and Wen Nuan.

"It seems like I need to stretch my muscles tonight." Mo Han sneered, took off his suit jacket and threw it to Wen Nuan, then got into a fighting posture.

A fierce melee ensued.

Mo Han was agile and his moves were fierce. He moved through the crowd like a ferocious cheetah, and the men in black could not get close to him at all.

Wen Nuan was looking for an opportunity to fight back. Although she did not have as strong fighting ability as Mo Han, she was not a weak woman who could not even lift a finger.

She picked up a stone on the ground, aimed at the black-clad man's vital points, and smashed it hard.

"Ah!" A man in black screamed and fell to the ground, covering his legs.

Seeing Wen Nuan injured, Mo Han was extremely anxious. He roared angrily and rushed towards the several men in black who were besieging Wen Nuan like a tiger descending from the mountain. His fists and kicks fell like raindrops, knocking them to the ground in an instant.

"Wife, are you okay?" He pulled Wen Nuan into his arms and nervously checked her injuries.

Wen Nuan shook her head and said while trying to endure the pain, "I'm fine, be careful!" Feeling Mo Han's deep love and protection, Wen Nuan felt warm in her heart, and at the same time, she became more determined to fight alongside him.

At this moment, Wen Nuan's eyes fell on the men in black lying on the ground. She suddenly discovered that they all had a strange tattoo on their arms...

A black spider-like pattern.

"Wait..." Wen Nuan grabbed Mo Han's arm, pointed at the men in black, and said in a serious tone: "Look..."

Mo Han followed the warm gaze and frowned.

The black spider mark, strange and eye-catching, spread like toxin on the arms of every man in black.

"What is this thing?" Mo Han murmured, an uneasy premonition coming to his mind.

Countless fragments flashed through Wen Nuan's mind quickly. Suddenly, she had an idea and exclaimed, "I remember it! This mark... I seem to have seen it somewhere!" She tried hard to recall, and finally, a vague picture appeared in her mind - there seemed to be a similar mark on the employee roster of a marginal department of the Mo Group!

That department...

He is responsible for security work, but has always been unknown and has a very low sense of presence.

"Wife, are you sure?" Mo Han realized the seriousness of the matter and his tone became serious.

"I... I'm not completely sure, but I think it's necessary to check it out." Wen Nuan nodded affirmatively, with a firm light flashing in her eyes.

Just do it!

Mo Han immediately took out his cell phone and contacted a confidant in the family, asking him to help investigate the situation in that marginal department.

In less than ten minutes, the confidant replied to the message, and the result was shocking - the department was ostensibly responsible for security work, but in fact it was a secret organization of thugs, secretly controlled by some dissatisfied collateral relatives of the Mo family. The purpose was to accumulate strength so that one day they could seize power in the Mo family!

"As expected!" Mo Han slammed his fist down, his eyes filled with rage. "These traitors actually dared to do something like this behind my back!"

Wen Nuan also felt a little scared. If they hadn't discovered this secret in time, the consequences would be disastrous.

"What should we do now?" She looked at Mo Han, waiting for his next instruction.

Mo Han's lips curled up into a cold smile, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "Since they want to play, we will play with them. Wife, let's pretend to be defeated..."

Mo Han smiled evilly and whispered in Wen Nuan's ear: "Baby, it's time to show your real skills." Wen Nuan understood and cooperated with a scream, pretending to be hit by the man in black, staggered back a few steps, and "accidentally" knocked over a flower pot on the roadside, raising a cloud of dust.

"Madam!" Mo Han's acting skills came into play. He held Wen Nuan with a nervous look on his face, but his eyes were secretly observing the reaction of Butler Lin.

Seeing this, Steward Lin indeed revealed a smug smile.

He was sure that Mo Han and Wen Nuan were no longer able to resist, so he waved his hand, signaling the men in black to stop.

"Mr. Mo, I'm sorry. The head of the family has ordered that you two go back and have a good rest." Butler Lin said in a sarcastic tone.

Mo Han pretended to be defeated, covered his chest and coughed a few times, and said weakly: "Cough cough...Okay, we'll follow you." He deliberately pretended to be in a mess, and even "accidentally" tripped and almost fell, which caused Butler Lin to sneer contemptuously.

After returning to the Mo family branch mansion, Mo Han and Wen Nuan were imprisoned separately.

Butler Lin proudly reported the "results" to the masterminds behind the scenes - Uncle Mo Er and Uncle Mo San.

"Hmph, these two little bastards finally fell into my hands!" Uncle Mo slammed the table viciously, with greed flashing in his eyes.

Uncle Mo San sipped his tea calmly, no emotion visible on his fox-like face, but he was secretly calculating how to profit from it.

Second Uncle Mo can't wait to seize the power from Mo Han, while Third Uncle Mo prefers to sit on the mountain and watch the fight, waiting for the right time to take action.

The two men each had their own ulterior motives, but on the surface they pretended to be friendly and respectful brothers.

"Second brother, don't be too happy too soon." Uncle Mo put down his teacup and said slowly, "Mo Han is not that easy to deal with."

"Hmph, he's already in our hands. What kind of trouble can he make?" Uncle Mo said with disdain.

"Better safe than sorry." Uncle Mo gave Steward Lin a meaningful look. "Go and find out their strength."

Butler Lin took the order and left, then came to Mo Han's room again.

However, he was greeted by a pair of eyes as cold as a knife...

"You...you..." Butler Lin was horrified to find that Mo Han's complexion was much better than before. He didn't look injured at all.

Mo Han curled up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile and slowly said, "Butler Lin, long time no see..."
