Before she could finish, Mo Zhu vaguely heard a series of gunshots coming from the receiver. With the whistling of the wind, the phone was suddenly hung up without warning.
Mo Zhu did not speak. Her eyes darkened quietly as she pondered for a moment. After a while, as if she had made a decision, she looked up indifferently and picked up her phone to make a call again. “Pass down my orders. From now on, lock down Cloud City completely. No one is allowed to enter tonight, and no one is allowed to leave as they please!”
After saying this, she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “Bring a team of elites and quickly go to the Central Hospital to check on the situation. If they encounter an unknown attacker, take action immediately. I want them to be unable to get out alive!”
Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s ruthless tone, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to understand that the situation was a little urgent. He agreed to her instructions softly and immediately arranged for someone to take action.
After putting her phone back on the armrest beside the chair, Mo Zhu turned her head and stared intently at the shadows of the trees that flashed past outside the window. In the quiet night sky, the car sped steadily and quickly on the road, leaving only the sound of the car rubbing against the air in the wind.
Seeing that Mo Zhu was in a bad mood, Huo Xuan raised his hand and gently patted the girl’s shoulder. He was going to say something to comfort Mo Zhu, but when he opened his mouth he couldn’t say a word. He sighed, pinched his glabella, and fell silent.
Ever since the two of them met, he knew that Mo Zhu was a strong-headed girl. She did everything herself, especially since this matter involved her grandmother, whom she cared about the most. Now, the only thing he could do was to accompany the girl and let her decide and solve it herself.
Half an hour later, Xu Huan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, received a message. He suddenly turned to look at the two people in the back seat with a serious expression and said with a grave expression, “Mo Qi just sent me a message. The group of people who sneaked into the hospital tonight are very skilled. There aren’t many people that were sent by the Huo family left. Should we find some helpers…”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Xu Huan. She frowned slightly and thought for a moment before picking up her phone and making a call.
The call was picked up very quickly. Mo Zhu did not wait for the other party to speak and said bluntly, “Uncle Jiang, I want to ask you to help me with a small favor…”
At the same time, in Cloud City’s Jiang family.
Just as Jiang Yan received Mo Zhu’s call, he stood up, got dressed, and prepared to leave. After everything was prepared, he thought of something and called Zhong Zhe, asking him to hurry to the hospital to see if there was anything he could help with.
When Zhong Zhe heard that Mo Zhu was in trouble, he immediately agreed without hesitation. He quickly put on his clothes and opened the door. Just as he walked to the main hall on the first floor, he bumped into Jiang Yu, who was sitting quietly in the living room watching television.
Seeing Zhong Zhe’s anxious expression, Jiang Yu frowned and asked curiously, “Uncle Zhong, where are you going at this late hour? Is there something urgent?”
When Zhong Zhe heard this, he subconsciously paused in his steps towards the door. He lowered his head, unsure if he should tell the girl about this matter. Considering that Jiang Yu and Mo Zhu had been sisters since they were young, he said after a while, “There was a terrorist attack at the Central Hospital tonight. Something happened to Mo Zhu’s grandmother. I was about to go there to take a look.”
Upon hearing Zhong Zhe’s words, Jiang Yu suddenly stood up from the sofa. Her eyes were filled with tears as she muttered with a choked voice, “Grandma Zhang… Did something happen to Grandma Zhang?”
Knowing that Xiao Yu and Zhang Fen had a deep relationship, Zhong Zhe was worried that she wouldn’t be able to bear the blow. He patted the girl’s head comfortingly and said indifferently, “Xiao Yu, listen to Uncle Zhong. You go upstairs and rest well.. We’ll talk about the exact situation over there when I return.”
