As Ruan Qian'an walked, she asked Yan Ling, who had already removed his mask, completely unaware that Huo Jingmo had already run away: "Have Ji Tian and Gong Chen been brought under control?"

Yan Ling nodded: "It's under control."

Ruan Qian'an: "Don't leave him any chance. I don't want anyone to come to his rescue either, understand? Yan Ling, don't betray my trust."

Word Spirit: "I know, sister. I've already taken care of everything."

Ruan Qian'an: "Have Chi Xiao bring more men over to keep an eye on Huo Jingmo."

"I need to go to the lab."

Upon entering the laboratory, Ruan Qingyu lay quietly inside the incubator, while Lin Jiang stood guard outside.

He was neither dead nor injured, and now he had no idea what was happening outside; he just looked at the people inside with worry.

When Lin Jiang saw Ruan Qian'an come in, she asked her, "Can she wake up? I clearly felt that she had stopped breathing before."

Ruan Qian'an: "Yes."

Yan Ling came over and whispered in her ear, "Boss Huo Jingmo has run away."

bang

The glass that Ruan Qian'an was holding in her right hand shattered in her hand.

Ruan Qian'an looked at Yan Ling with a forced smile and said, "How could a perfectly healthy person just run away? Don't you guys take me seriously at all?"

"Was what I said really that unpleasant to hear?"

Yan Ling's face turned ashen: "We didn't have enough manpower, and we couldn't keep an eye on things."

Ruan Qian'an: "How did you find out?"

Yan Ling said, "The guard where Huo's mother was kept was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he said that the people inside were gone."

Ruan Qian'an pondered: "Bring them back."

Yan Ling walked over and said, "Boss, do you know where he went?"

"He contacted Gong Chen, and now Huo's mother has been taken into custody, while Huo Jingmo has gone to the Huo family's old residence."

Ruan Qian'an: "What are you going to the Huo family's old house for?"

Ruan Qian'an's eyes sharpened: "I'll go myself."

Yan Ling said worriedly, "Boss, you just finished treating Miss Qingyu and you are very weak. Let me go instead."

Ruan Qian'an: "You can't catch him."

Huo Jingmo led his men a long way out of the area before stopping to hail a taxi.

Huo's mother: "Son, where are we going?"

Huo Jingmo said with a serious expression, "Go find Gong Chen. You stay with him for a couple of days until I come to find you."

Mrs. Huo: "What do you mean? You're not planning to come with me? Are you going back?"

Huo Jingmo: "Mm."

Mrs. Huo said anxiously, "No! I don't agree. You have to come with me."

Huo Jingmo smiled and said, "If I went with you, you would still be in this situation today."

Mrs. Huo hesitated for a moment and then fell silent. She was truly terrified by what had happened today and didn't want to experience it again. After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Huo decided not to cause any more trouble for Jing Mo.

Huo Jingmo remained calm, knowing what he would say to make his mother give up.

But my heart still aches slightly, and I still can't remain indifferent to my mother's reaction.

Huo Jingmo sent a message to Gong Chen, asking him to arrange a place for his mother to stay.

It took Gong Chen a long time to reply to his message. Huo Jingmo sent his mother there as soon as he received the address, and without lingering, he went straight to the old house to retrieve the things that Ruan's mother had given him.

I hope Ruan Qian'an will let my mother off the hook for this reason.

After retrieving his belongings, Huo Jingmo knew he couldn't delay any longer, so he drove a sports car from the old house and headed back, thinking that Ruan Qian'an might already know about his escape.

He wanted to tell Ruan Qian'an that he had not run away recklessly.

Instead, he decided to have an open and honest conversation with her about everything.

Just as he was about to leave, someone called him. Huo Jingmo didn't want to answer when he saw it was an unknown number, but the other party persisted, so Huo Jingmo had no choice but to answer.

Gong Chen's anxious voice came from the other end. He gave Huo Jingmo his location and asked him to come pick him up as soon as possible.

Huo Jingmo was anxious to get back, but he was also afraid that Ruan Qian'an's people would harm Gong Chen, so he drove quickly towards where Gong Chen was.

Gong Chen was sitting peacefully in the hospital office, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

Chi Xiao came in, and he was knocked down as soon as he stood up to greet him. Luckily, he was careful and managed to escape.

He borrowed a phone from someone to call Huo Jingmo. He had learned that Ruan Qian'an was planning to harm Huo Jingmo while he was pretending to be unconscious, and he had managed to contact Huo Jingmo through various means.

She was anxiously waiting for Huo Jingmo to arrive next to an internet cafe.

He saw a car in the distance, and Gong Chen waved. The car stopped, and before Gong Chen could even sit down properly, it sped away without a second's delay.

Huo Jingmo frowned after listening to everything Gong Chen said. He said, "You were already tied up? Then who was the person who gave me the address before?"

Gong Chen said, "It might be Chi Xiao. Anyway, let's get out of City A now."

Huo Jingmo: "How could that be? My mother is probably in her hands again. There's no way I'm leaving."

"Besides, I've already decided to talk everything out with Ruan Qian'an, so there's no way I'm going to leave."

"Let me find you a safe place first."

Gong Chen: "Wake up. Her target is you. Your mother will be safer if you leave."

Huo Jingmo said again, "I've decided to be honest with her about everything."

Gong Chen said with exasperation, "She treated you like this, why didn't you run away? In just a few days, she acquired your company and then sold it to your father at a low price."

"Isn't her behavior just trying to embarrass you? And now you're going to walk right into her trap?"

Huo Jingmo's lips trembled upon hearing the news: "I didn't know. I thought it was just a shortage of funds in the company, and that she had become the largest shareholder."

"I didn't expect things to turn out this way."

Gong Chen hesitated for a moment and then said, "All the entertainment venues under your name have been shut down, and your house and car have been mortgaged."

"I bet all your current funds have been frozen."

"You're penniless now, do you still want to throw your life away? Don't play with Ruan Qian'an, you can't beat her," Gong Chen advised earnestly.

When Gong Chen learned that Huo Jingmo's leg was damaged at Ruan Qian'an's behest, and that she was the one who fixed it, Gong Chen knew that her friend was no match for Ruan Qian'an.

How could Huo Jingmo know these things? Things happened too quickly, and he had no chance to fight back.

He couldn't help but feel a little foolish, just as he was thinking this.

A car next to him overtook him, pulled up in front of him, and tried to force him to stop.

Huo Jingmo felt a chill run down his spine. Gong Chen asked, "What's going on?"

The two cars were speeding along.

Huo Jingmo did not stop; on the contrary, he walked faster and faster, and the car suddenly drove to the side.

A black sports car sped up in front of Huo Jingmo's car.

A beautiful drift brought Huo Jingmo's car face-to-face.

Huo Jingmo recognized the person inside through the glass as Ruan Qian'an.

Ruan Qian'an's eyes were fierce, her lips curled into a faint smile, and she seemed to be saying something, as if to say, "You can't escape."

Huo Jingmo swallowed hard. The two cars were going so fast that the wind howled like blades hitting his face.

He wanted to drive to the side, but Ruan Qian'an's car was too close to his, so he couldn't move to the side.

There was another car blocking him from behind, preventing him from slowing down.

Ruan Qian'an accelerated her backward movement, straightened the car, and without hesitation rammed into the car where Huo Jingmo was.

Huo Jingmo was suddenly hit and lost control of the steering wheel, crashing into the guardrail on the side. The car scraped against the body, making a screeching sound.

Gong Chen was also knocked on the head and cursed under his breath, baring his teeth as he shouted at Huo Jingmo, "What did you do to offend this madman?"

Ruan Qian'an's car scraped against his body, forcing him to stop abruptly.

His car was quickly surrounded from dozens of meters away. No one knew what methods Ruan Qian'an used, but there were no other cars nearby and the police were not alerted.

Ruan Qian'an got out of the car, and the sound of the door slamming shut startled Huo Jingmo and made him realize what was happening. He quickly locked the car door.

Ruan Qian'an opened Huo Jingmo's car door but found it wouldn't open.

The glass shattered instantly; it was Ruan Qian'an who had smashed it open with his bare hands.

Ruan Qian'an opened the door with ease.

Ruan Qian'an's mad aura was overwhelming, and Huo Jingmo realized at that moment how terrifying Ruan Qian'an was.

Ruan Qian'an used her bloodied hands to restrain Huo Jingmo: "The revenge hasn't been settled yet, why are you running away?"
