Chapter 373 - Another Matter

After saying this, Mo Zhu was in a daze. Before she could hang up, Cheng Yi started chattering again, “By the way, girl, the last time you video called me, I remember you mentioning that you were studying in Cloud City, right?”

Mo Zhu looked away from the window and rubbed the bedsheets beside her. She replied lightly, “Yes, Jingyang High School.”

When he heard that Mo Zhu was studying in Jingyang High School, Cheng Yi’s eyes instantly lit up. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Girl, listen to me. Jingyang High School is a middle school with a high enrollment rate. If you can study there, your results definitely won’t be bad. Study hard and see if there are any good schools or universities in Beijing that you like after you graduate. When you come to Beijing to study in university, it will be more convenient for you to enter and leave the Love Pavilion. You can come to the office to have tea with me more often…”

After a pause, afraid that Mo Zhu would reject him because of her results, Cheng Yi added firmly, “It’s fine if your results aren’t ideal. With my ability, it’s very easy for you to find a top university in Beijing. Girl, feel free to take the college entrance examination and take a look at any universities you like. Leave the rest to me!”

Upon hearing Cheng Yi’s words, Mo Zhu could not help but laugh. “Forget it. If you have the time to help me consider the future, why don’t you think about how to develop the Love Pavilion better?”

After being reminded by Mo Zhu, Cheng Yi frowned. He suddenly recalled a huge matter that had caused the people in the Love Pavilion to be extremely busy recently. He coughed twice and said in a low voice, “Girl, to be honest, there’s really something tricky these two days. Everyone is helpless and I was just about to ask you for help. I was thinking that if you came to Beijing to study, it would be more convenient for us to do things.”

Although the Love Pavilion was established by Cheng Yi, he could not control the entire Love Pavilion one handedly. There were still management levels above him. If he offended the people above him, he would not be able to bear the consequences.

Coincidentally, this very tricky problem was handed to him by his boss and also to the entire Love Pavilion. If the Love Pavilion could not find out the truth behind it or do it well, they might be implicated by this matter and their year-end performance would be severely affected.

Everyone had been busy with this matter for a long time but they were not able to find any clues. Originally, Cheng Yi had wanted to take the initiative to call Mo Zhu two days ago and ask her for help. However, considering this girl’s temperament, she was usually not easy to talk to. As he thought that the investigation time given by the higher-ups was not that tight, he did not ask her for help for a long time.

When Mo Zhu heard this, she raised her eyebrows and changed her posture on the bed with interest. “Oh? What’s so difficult? Tell me about it?”

After hearing Cheng Yi’s words, Mo Zhu was very curious about this matter. As one of the four gods of the Love Pavilion, she had joined the Love Pavilion for many years. For such a long time, Cheng Yi had always given her the impression that he was a calm and steady person. From the rising development of the Love Pavilion, it could be seen that the manager was a brave and intelligent person, so Mo Zhu rarely heard the word ‘tricky’ from the man.

It seemed like the matter this time was definitely not that simple.

Cheng Yi trusted Mo Zhu very much. Seeing that she had taken the initiative to ask, he did not plan to hide it. He immediately picked up the teacup on the desk and took a sip. He said in a low voice, “Have you heard about the multiple kidnappings in Beijing some time ago?”

Upon hearing Cheng Yi mention this, Mo Zhu also straightened her expression and replied seriously, “I’ve heard about this.”

The man nodded and continued with a serious expression, “After so many days of investigation by the Love Pavilion, these mysterious kidnappings were all done by one person. Furthermore, the other party specially picked on the children of noble families. The strange thing is that with so many cases happening one after another, the police can’t even capture the face of a suspect. It’s really strange!”

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."
