When Poppy heard this, her tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed. Her real name was Yang Yun and only Almighty K knew about this.
It seemed like this unfathomable young lady in front of her was the legendary Almighty K!
Upon hearing Mo Zhu take the initiative to introduce herself, Huo Xuan understood that this woman in front of him must be the girl’s good friend, in order for her to place so much importance on her. He took two steps forward and greeted Poppy politely, “Hello.”
Poppy was someone who had seen all sorts of situations. When she heard Mo Zhu introduce her real name instead of her code name, she immediately realized that Almighty K had definitely not announced her own identity to these people. Thinking of this, she raised her eyes and looked back at Huo Xuan, replying with a smile, “Hello, hello.”
The few of them greeted each other and had a simple introduction to have a better understanding of each other. After Mo Zhu placed them in the living room, she went to Zhang Fen’s room alone.
It had been a long time since they left Qingyuan Village. The tables and chairs in the room were covered in dust. Mo Zhu walked two steps to her grandmother’s bed and quietly looked at the photo of the two of them on the bedside table. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
The photo was wrapped by Zhang Fen with a transparent tape a few times. As Mo Zhu did not like to take photos, her grandmother was afraid that the photo would turn yellow after a long time and specially placed it in a sealed photo frame.
Mo Zhu picked up the photo frame and gently rubbed her grandmother’s smiling face in the photo with the tip of her fingers. She recalled the situation when they took the photo. At that time, she and Jiang Yu were still studying in Qingyuan Village, and Uncle Jiang was still alive. That day, when Uncle Jiang heard that her grandmother was bringing Mo Zhu to take a photo, he was afraid that her grandmother would be weak, so he specially borrowed a camera from the photo studio in the village and took the photo for them at their house.
After recalling for a while, Mo Zhu looked up and held back the tears in her eyes. Thinking of what her grandmother had said before she died, she stood up and lifted the mattress on her grandmother’s wooden bed, revealing the uneven bed frame.
After counting the number of bed boards, Mo Zhu found the second one that Zhang Fen had mentioned. She raised her hand and gently knocked it. A crisp sound rang out and Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows. It was indeed empty.
Mo Zhu’s fingers were very thin. Her two knuckles were clasped in the gap between the bed boards. With a light pinch, the bed board was opened by her. In the secret compartment under the board lay a jade-faced Guan Yin. There was a thick stack of papers under the Guan Yin statue. The ink on it was obvious, and it looked like a stack of documents.
Mo Zhu reached out and took out the jade-faced Guan Yin. It was small and it lay in her palm. Just by touching it, she knew that it was something good. Although Mo Zhu did not understand why so many people were fighting for it and did not hesitate to sacrifice so many lives to obtain this treasure, she knew that her grandmother had died for it. Therefore, as long as she was alive, this thing would definitely not fall into the hands of others!
Putting the jade-faced Guan Yin in her pocket, she reached out and took out the pile of information at the bottom of the secret compartment. She gently blew at the dust on the information and the neatly arranged words appeared in front of Mo Zhu.
Mo Zhu looked up and scanned through these documents. After quickly browsing through them, she knew that these were all information about the Zhang family that her grandmother had secretly investigated behind her back all these years.
Not only did it contain the history of the Zhang family’s development, but it also contained the development of the Zhang family’s business and business partners over the years. Even the personal matters of the Zhang family’s descendants in the Zhang family’s mansion were printed on these documents in detail.
Mo Zhu’s eyes darkened again. In all the years she had been by her grandmother’s side, she had never mentioned that she had the Zhang family’s bloodline. Every time Mo Zhu asked, she would find all sorts of reasons to gloss over it. Mo Zhu had always thought that her grandmother’s unwillingness to mention the past was because she had something unspeakable. She did not expect that there were some secrets that she had not found when she investigated.
If her grandmother had really been like how she had portrayed herself, then why did she secretly gather so much information about the Zhang family secretly?
All these years, when she used K’s hacker identity to check the entire country, she only found out that her grandmother had some relationship with the Zhang family. The Zhang family was too powerful and had too many industries. Even if she used other connections, there was very little information that K could find.
Her grandmother was a sick old woman who had to be bedridden all year round.. Why was she able to investigate the Zhang family’s matters so clearly all these years? It seemed like everything was not as simple as it looked.
