Chapter 372 - Cheng Yi's Phone Call

After the young nanny left the room, everyone considered that Mo Zhu had just woken up and her body had not fully recovered. Thus, under Chen Man’s suggestion, they went to do their own things and let Mo Zhu rest quietly.

After everyone left, the room instantly fell silent. Mo Zhu took the coat she had worn last night from the wooden chair by the bed and prepared to take out her phone from her pocket to look at the time and news.

Unexpectedly, just as she reached out and was about to touch her coat pocket, she suddenly heard a hurried vibration of her phone from the other side of the pillow.

Mo Zhu frowned slightly and looked up to follow the sound of the vibration. It was her phone that had been fully charged. At this moment, there was a caller ID on the phone screen. Looking at the few numbers at the end, it should be from Cheng Yi.

Raising her hand to take the phone, Mo Zhu swiped the answer button neatly. A deep male voice instantly came from the other end of the phone.

“Girl, why can’t I get through to you this morning?”

Mo Zhu pinched the space between her eyebrows calmly. “I had something on in the morning and my phone was turned to silent mode.”

Not wanting to continue this topic, she raised her eyebrows and took the initiative to ask, “Why are you looking for me?”

Cheng Yi had called Mo Zhu twice in the morning, but she did not pick up. He was originally quite worried about this girl, but now that he heard Mo Zhu’s calm tone, he was relieved and said softly, “There are two things I want to tell you.”

“The first matter is about the Huo family. The young master of the Huo family, Huo Xuan, personally sent someone to the Love Pavilion to place an order with me. He wants you to personally investigate a mysterious young man who appeared in the Kang family last night. He also gave me some unusual news. He said that the young man’s martial arts are different from ordinary martial arts. He asked you to pay attention to internal energy cultivation methods and it might be easier to investigate from that aspect.”

Cheng Yi rubbed his palms and paused for a few seconds, as if he was considering something. A moment later, he did not wait for Mo Zhu’s reply and continued, “From the information provided by the Huo family, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to investigate this matter. My thoughts are that our safety is the priority, so I wanted to ask for your opinion first before deciding how to deal with this matter!”

Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and knocked her fingers lightly on the bedside table. She looked like she was really thinking seriously about whether to take this order.

In fact, she had already known about this when Huo Xuan and Mo Wu were talking in the room in the morning. Although she was still unconscious at that time, she didn’t miss a word they said and she heard it very clearly.

After so much had happened in the Kang family last night and that she had already woken up, she more or less had to give Huo Xuan an explanation for these things. Beijing had been filled with danger recently, and now, an expert who was proficient in internal energy like her had appeared. For the safety of Huo Xuan and the Huo family, she had no choice but to investigate the conspiracy behind the truth step by step.

She lowered her eyes and pondered quietly for a few minutes. Cheng Yi, who was on the other end of the phone, was also very tactful and didn’t disturb Mo Zhu. After a while, she seemed to have thought of something and replied in a low voice, “I’ll accept this mission. Later, you can personally reply to Huo Xuan’s people and discuss it with them.”

When Cheng Yi heard this, he nodded and said, “Alright, there haven’t been many orders recently. Although this matter is a little tricky, I believe that with your strength, it’s only a matter of time before you find out the truth. Since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll reply to the Huo family truthfully. If you need anything, we can ask them to cooperate with us with all their might!”

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."
