Chapter 467 - The Bomb Crisis

Mo Zhu pondered quietly for a moment before lowering her eyes to think. Although she didn’t know what had happened at the Huo family’s old mansion, she didn’t want to reject her and ruin Chen Man’s mood. “Alright, Huo Xuan and I will rush over now!”

After saying this, she heard Chen Man acknowledge softly. Mo Zhu hung up the phone directly. She didn’t stay at Xu Huan’s place to waste any more time and brought Huo Xuan straight back to the old mansion.

As Mo Wu was already feeling better, he could tell that something had happened in the old mansion from Mo Zhu’s words. He volunteered to be the driver and drove the two of them over.

About half an hour later, Mo Wu parked the car steadily at the entrance of the Huo family’s old mansion.

Chen Man had already instructed the servants to tidy up the room Mo Zhu and Huo Xuan were sleeping in. At this moment, she was standing at the entrance anxiously with a paper box, waiting for them.

Seeing Mo Zhu and Huo Xuan open the car door and get out of the car, Chen Man quickly took two steps forward and said in a low voice, “Xuan’er, Xiao Zhu, you’re finally back. Quickly look at this paper box. There are a few things that look like bombs inside. The courier sent it to the Huo family residence tonight. I was shocked just as I opened it.”

“There are five small bombs in this box. They seem to be timed. Apart from the one that exploded when we opened the box, the other four inside are still intact!”

Recalling the fear she had when she opened the box and realized that there were bombs in it, Chen Man took a deep breath with lingering fear. She took a deep breath and said, “Although the bombs in the box aren’t very powerful and only blew up a corner of the paper box, I think there must be something fishy behind sending such a thing to the Huo family.”

After a pause, Chen Man handed the box in her hand to Huo Xuan. She grabbed Mo Zhu’s hand and continued asking anxiously, “Xiao Zhu, are you guys alright in the small mansion? Did you encounter any danger on the way here?”

When Mo Zhu heard this, a cold glint flashed across her eyes. She frowned slightly in displeasure and forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart. She said coldly, “Auntie, we’re fine. I’ll study the bomb in the box first!”

She wanted to see who had the guts to send a bomb to the Huo family openly!

After saying this, Mo Zhu raised her hand and picked up a small bomb from the paper box Huo Xuan was holding. Unexpectedly, after staring at it for a few seconds, Mo Zhu looked away with a dark expression.

After placing the bomb in the box, Mo Zhu instructed as she walked into the house, “Prepare a computer for me. I want to check all the routes that the courier passed before he sent the parcel to the old mansion!”

When she arrived at the main hall, Mo Zhu sat on the sofa and quickly operated the laptop Mo Wu had handed her. Before everyone could see how she operated it, a map of the entire capital appeared on the screen.

She accurately found the location of the Huo family’s old mansion from the map. Mo Zhu pulled out the surveillance video of the few streets near the old mansion and checked all the delivery points that the courier had passed by in detail. Mo Zhu’s fingers gently knocked on the coffee table and she lowered her eyes thoughtfully.

As if she had thought of something, she raised her hand and checked the surveillance camera in front of the mansion Xu Huan had rented. Mo Zhu only took a rough look for two minutes before her expression changed. A cold glint flashed across her eyes. She suddenly raised her hand and punched the sofa cushion beside her.

Mo Zhu stood up and walked to Chen Man. She held the woman’s hand and eased her anger a little. She said indifferently, “Auntie, I have found out some things about this matter. It’s already so late. You should rest first. Huo Xuan and I will deal with it!”

Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Chen Man naturally believed in her daughter-in-law’s ability. She gently held the girl’s hand and replied softly, “Alright, in that case, I’m relieved. I’ve tidied up the room for you and Xuan’er. The two of you rest early tonight. Let’s have a good meal tomorrow to nourish ourselves!”

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."
