Mo Jingshen slowly shifted his gaze away, calmly fixing the sleeves of his suit.
At this moment, his cold, dark eyes seemed especially ice-cold. “Tonight, if Ji Nuan were to lose even a single strand of hair, you can consider your Han family’s luck to run out. Are you sure you want to gamble with me?”
Han Tianyuan’s expression instantly froze. His calm demeanor began to crack.
“I’ll give you one last chance.” Mo Jingshen eyes were frigid, his murderous intent rising to the surface. “Ji Nuan, where is she?”
Han Tianyuan seriously confessed, “I’m not sure. However, early on, I saw her show up at the ball. After someone placed something unpleasant in her glass, she crazily followed several men into an elevator. Most likely, right now, she’s having fun in some room…”
Han Tianyuan’s words had yet to end when a cold hand suddenly gripped his throat. The feeling of suffocation instantly landed. He stiffly glanced toward Mo Jingshen.
His movements were fast and clean. There was no opportunity for Han Tianyuan to evade.
“CEO Mo, a gentleman uses his words and not his hands. Not to mention, this has absolutely nothing to do with…”
Mo Jingshen coldly smiled, his gaze becoming even more chilling.
If a young master’s neck were to be broken in the middle of the street, even if he died, it would be too humiliating. Han Tianyuan was confident that tonight’s incident left no evidence that could implicate him, but he also knew that tonight they had really played with fire.
Even if Mo Jingshen were to kill him personally in front of a crowd like this, no one would dare to ask him to take responsibility.
“CEO Mo, all the entrances have been sealed. Should we go in now?” Shen Mu approached Mo Jingshen’s back, quietly asking.
“Search each room—one by one!”
——
Inside the hotel ballroom, due to Mo Jingshen’s sudden appearance, the crowd spoke in hushed voices. After hearing the news, the organizer of the ball and the hotel manager rushed over but came to a halt when they met Mo Jingshen’s ice-cold gaze.
Everyone was driven to various corners of the room, and the pub connected to the hotel was sealed. Even a fly could not escape.
“You, stop there!” Shen Mu saw that there was a man at the back of the crowd acting suspiciously and immediately had the guards bring him over.
After being plucked out of the crowd, the terrified man turned green. After meeting Mo Jingshen’s gaze, he immediately trembled and did not dare to raise his head.
Based on his reaction, it was easy to tell that he was guilty.
“Stand properly! Why are you trembling?” Shen Mu kicked the man from behind.
“Mo… CEO Mo…” The man was frightened; his entire body was tightly wound, and he could barely stand straight. His voice quivered as he tried to shift the blame by honestly confessing everything. “It has nothing to do with me… It really has nothing to with me… someone ordered me, CEO Mo… Please, please let me off…”
Mo Jingshen glanced at him coldly. “Where is she?”
He stiffly raised his hand to point toward the stairs. “T-tenth floor, on the tenth floor. Miss Zhou was the one who brought your wife up…”
In an instant, Mo Jingshen’s figure had already entered the lift. Everyone else in the ballroom exchanged glances.
Usually, even if he was invited, Mo Jingshen would never attend such events. That he would suddenly appear today, and in such terrifying circumstances too, could it mean that something serious had occurred?
On the tenth floor of the hotel, they kicked the doors open one by one until they arrived at the end of the corridor. The moment Mo Jingshen stood in front of the door that was locked from the outside, he heard the sounds of a woman yelling painfully without restraint.
Shen Mu, along with the guards who had rushed over from the back did not dare to show any emotion on their faces, nor did they dare to look at Mo Jingshen’s expression.
Mo Jingshen only paused for an instant; his eyes calmly looked at the door before him.
That voice was not Ji Nuan’s.
Even if she were to be drugged with something dirty, even if she were to lose all rationality, a horrendously piercing voice like this would not belong to Ji Nuan.
Mo Jingshen directly kicked the door open. Inside the dark room immediately came a stench that caused one to feel disgusted.
The moment the door opened, his icy gaze landed on the woman being pressed down by several unclothed men. The woman’s hair was a mess while her body was extremely dirty, covered in bruises, and all sorts of white liquid.
Men continuously entered her lower body. Even though someone had intruded, they continued without stopping.
When the door opened, Shen Mu instinctually closed his eyes.
However, Mo Jingshen coldly glanced at that woman’s eyes.
When he realized that Mo Jingshen did not speak, Shen Mu open his eyes, looking at the scene inside.
The woman was crying while struggling. The men were acting as though they had lost their rationality. Such an unpleasant scene… was really rare to see…
This… was actually Zhou Yanyan?
“CEO Mo…” Shen Mu came back to himself, abruptly turning to look toward Mo Jingshen.
“Continue looking.” Mo Jingshen’s eyes were pitch black; his voice extremely calm.
This hotel was a renowned six-star hotel in Hai Cheng; It had many floors and rooms. If Ji Nuan was truly drugged, there was no way she could leave this place by herself.
The group of people split up and searched through the different floors. The surveillance cameras on the tenth floor and the elevator had all been tampered with.
After a while, the men in the surveillance room suddenly called, “Found her! The surveillance cameras on the first floor are working normally! Twenty minutes ago, Mrs. Mo crossed the hallway alone and walked to the club connected to the hotel!”
———
Inside the room, Ji Nuan pushed aside the two beast-like perverts, struggling to stand up. She raised a hand and picked up a beer bottle on the table, smashing it on the floor and pointing it at them. At the same time, she held onto the sofa to stand up; her gaze extremely fierce and bright like fire. “Move away!”
The moment she thought about how one of the fat-headed, big-eared men had carried her to the sofa earlier, she instantly felt disgusted. Her entire body was uncomfortable!
In the past twenty minutes, she struggled a lot. These two perverted men were fat and strong. Although they drank a lot, they were in better condition than her.
She used the broken bottle as a sharp weapon to protect herself but could only exhibit a weak threat. The two men harshly pushed her against the sofa, quickly snatching the glass away and throwing it on the floor.
“Move away, don’t touch me—”
“Fuck you, let’s see how long you can keep this up!” one of the perverted men shouted angrily as he directly tried to rip her clothes off. Ji Nuan lowered her head and harshly bit onto his hand.
“Ah! God damn it! Stupid woman! Not giving us any face.” The man raised his hand in pain, harshly slapping her across the face.
That one blow caused Ji Nuan’s head to be thrown backwards and her vision to turn black. However, it also forcefully cleared up her mind. She grabbed the fruit plate on the table and picked up the fruit knife, and with no hesitation she stabbed it into his thigh.
“Ah, fuck—”
He shrieked loudly. The lecherous man was in so much pain that he instantly jumped up. The other man saw the knife in her hands and immediately tried to snatch it from her.
Ji Nuan kept on swinging the fruit knife in her hands, aiming it randomly toward the two. When they moved back to avoid the knife, she quickly grabbed another beer bottle, smashing it hard against the coffee table. With one hand, she wielded the fruit knife, and with the other, she raised the broken glass. Her eyes were filled with caution and she did not relax for even a moment.
When Mo Jingshen kicked open the door and rushed in, this was the scene he saw.
