After the dishes were served, the two of them hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls before finding an excuse to leave. Huo Xuan nodded and made a call to specially ask Xu Huan to come and try the dishes on the top floor of this restaurant.

A hotel had its own rules. Some of the dishes on the top floor could not be ordered by ordinary VIP guests. Coincidentally, Huo Xuan also wanted to take the opportunity to ask Xu Huan about something else. It was just the right time to ask him to come over for dinner.

Once he heard that they could eat here, Xu Huan arrived in a few minutes. Under the lead of the waiter, he walked straight to the door of the private room.

He raised his hand and pushed open the door of the private room. Xu Huan looked at the huge table of food in front of him with his eyes wide open. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, “Brother Huo, didn’t you reject the Supreme VIP card that they gave you? Why are you eating at the top floor now? Has this hotel opened the top floor to ordinary VIPs?”

Huo Xuan was amused by his words. He looked up at Xu Huan indifferently and said with a smile, “This meal isn’t my treat. Your sister-in-law is the one treating you.”

After Huo Xuan said this, Xu Huan finally understood what was going on. He looked at Mo Zhu in surprise and asked in disbelief, “Little Bamboo, you have this hotel’s Supreme VIP card? You really have hidden it well!”

Mo Zhu calmly picked up some food with her chopsticks and replied as she stuffed it into her mouth, “It’s alright, it’s alright. Someone gave it to me the last time when I worked for them. I saw that this card looks quite pretty and accepted it.”

Upon hearing the girl’s words, Xu Huan gave Mo Zhu a thumbs up in his heart. Only Mo Zhu could make accepting such a precious VIP card into such a trivial matter.

“Alright, stop standing at the door in a daze. Hurry up and sit down and eat before the food turns cold. Coincidentally, I have something to ask you.” Huo Xuan waved for Xu Huan to sit down.

The three of them ate quietly for a few minutes. Huo Xuan took out his phone and fiddled with it. He then placed the panorama view of Golden Sands Beach, which he had found on the internet, in front of Xu Huan and pinched the space between his eyebrows. “Didn’t I ask you to check Black Tiger’s location when you came to Beijing? How was it? Did you find anything?”

Xu Huan swallowed a mouthful of meatball soup and looked up at the map on the phone screen. He scratched his head and replied awkwardly, “We didn’t find it. The Golden Sands Beach is too huge. Our people have searched for it more than ten times, but we still didn’t find any traces of Black Tiger.”

After pondering for a few seconds, Xu Huan stuffed another meatball into his mouth and said as he chewed, “Although we didn’t manage to catch him, I asked the guys in charge of catching him and we have some gains from this trip. According to them, we were about to succeed the last time. However, Black Tiger had somehow gotten help from an Internet expert. Not only did the person cover his tracks, but he had also provided him with a superb escape route. That’s why we had lost the pursuit.”

Xu Huan became anxious as he spoke, and he stopped what he was doing. He frowned and continued, “Now that we’ve completely lost track of Black Tiger, I really don’t know where he hired the expert from. He didn’t even leave behind any useful information. Why didn’t we meet such a talent?”

Xu Huan’s words were considered a compliment to Mo Zhu. She raised her eyes and took a meaningful glance at Xu Huan, her eyes revealing a faint smile.

Upon hearing Xu Huan’s explanation and analysis, Huo Xuan nodded in understanding. He picked up his phone and checked the topographic map of Golden Sands Beach in detail. A moment later, he outlined a circle on his phone screen. “Get someone to surround Golden Sands Beach. Place hidden sentries on every street.”

“This is for?” Xu Huan was a little confused by Huo Xuan’s arrangements.

“When Black Tiger escaped, Golden Sands Beach was surrounded by so many of our people. Not a single drop of water could even pass through. Even if he had wings, he definitely wouldn’t be able to fly out, so…” Huo Xuan didn’t finish his sentence. He raised his eyebrows at Xu Huan, signaling Xu Huan to continue his sentence..

Mo Zhu's mother remarried after her father went missing, and she had lived in the countryside with her elderly grandmother ever since. The girl who had no parents wanted to protect herself. Therefore, to avoid getting bullied, she had turned wild since she was a child—she played truant, fought, and drank. There was nothing she did not know how to do. She was a problematic student in the eyes of her teachers, a big sister in the eyes of her classmates, and a hooligan in the eyes of her acquaintances. When she was eighteen, her birth mother retrieved her to live at her stepfather's house. Everyone in the village claimed that she was going to live a happy life in the city, that her mother had not forgotten that she had a daughter here. "Mo Zhu, the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in the country. It's your good fortune to replace your younger sister in marrying into the Huo family. You have to cherish this opportunity," explained her mother patiently as she held Mo Zhu's hand. Mo Zhu's eyes were filled with sorrow. At that instant, she knew why her mother thought of her. Inviting her over to the city to enjoy life was simply a figment of her imagination—she was simply an exploitable piece of trash that her mother could sacrifice. The Eldest Young Master of the Huo family fell severely ill recently. He did not just develop a twisted personality, but also became violent and cruel. His face had been completely ruined and he had only two years left to live. Mo Zhu's younger sister was supposed to be Eldest Young Master Huo's fiancée, but the ruined young master was no longer a suitable match. Fearing the Huo family's influences, her mother did not dare to cancel the marriage, thus she sent Mo Zhu under the bus to protect her younger sister. However, was Mo Zhu truly just a useless simpleton who knew how to smoke, drink, and fight? No! That was simply a disguise she used for self-defense since she was a girl without parents. After marrying into the Huo family, she stopped smoking, drinking, and fighting. She became the best daughter-in-law a mother-in-law could ever have; the best wife a husband could ever have. What never occurred to anyone was she no longer flunked in her studies. In fact, she transformed into a straight-A student. Half a year later, she enrolled in the best university in the country and majored in specialized medicine. Determined to become an excellent doctor, she cured her husband's illness completely in merely two years. That handsome and suave Eldest Young Master Huo returned. After Huo Xuan's recovery, he allocated a huge budget and held the biggest wedding of the century for Mo Zhu. During the grand wedding ceremony, Huo Xuan announced during his speech, "In this lifetime, there are two people I'm most grateful for other than my parents. One of them is my mother-in-law. Thank you for despising me after I fell ill and forcing my wife to marry me in her younger sister's stead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the most important person in my life! The second person must be my wife! She never despised me when I was at my lowest. Instead, she takes good care of me. She's an angel sent by God, and she has saved me with her forgiveness and kindness, granting me a second chance at life."
