Chapter 10 - Everyone Has Secrets
After confirming that the lass was sound asleep, Mo Chi quietly left the master bedroom and went to the study.
Mo Qing, who had been waiting here for a long time, held a document in his hand. When he saw him enter, he bowed slightly.
“Have you investigated?” Mo Chi asked.
“Yes.” Mo Qing’s tone was resolute and decisive. Since the first time he met Qin Ran, Mo Chi had asked him to investigate the background of this young lady. A few nights ago, after the young madam had pushed him down on the bed with her bare hands, he had hurried the investigation and sent sufficient manpower to expand the scope of his investigation. Therefore, before this information was brought to Mo Chi, it had already been repeatedly confirmed.
“The young madam has nothing to do with the assassination organization or the competitors. At the very least, the trajectory of her growth has nothing to do with them,” Mo Qing continued.
“Continue.”
“Young madam used to be the daughter of the Qin family, but she was abducted by human traffickers before she was three years old. It was rumored that she was adopted by a country couple, and she lived in the countryside with them. Due to her family’s difficulties, she came out of junior high to work and help out. She worked in a gym for two years. At that time, the boxing coach saw that she was quite talented, and he would always privately teach her some fighting techniques.”
Mo Qing spoke tirelessly as Mo Chi, who was sitting on the boss chair, flipped through the information.
The text only took up about 20% of the information. The rest were pictures. In the pictures, there was Qin Ran, who looked to be five or six years old. Some looked to be eight or nine years old, and some looked to be in her teens. She attended classes in the classroom, she ran on the field, she worked part-time in the restaurant, and she learned combat skills in the gym. She looked like a poor young lady who had been living her life tenaciously.
It seemed like he was too suspicious.
“Sir, you are the number one person on the Dark Net’s assassination list. There are hundreds of people who want to kill you every day. The people who have been by your side for more than ten years are your trusted subordinates. For a young lady to suddenly intrude into your life, you should indeed investigate properly.”
Mo Chi rubbed his hands continuously. Although he had retired for many years, he was still the regiment commander of the Bai Lian Corps and had created many legends in the industry. It was impossible for him to have a peaceful life.
“There’s one more thing recently.” When Mo Chi heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Mo Qing. Mo Qing seemed to be hesitating, but he still had to speak. “It’s about the Beautiful Fox. Ever since she retired more than half a year ago, there hasn’t been any trace of her. But recently, there’s news that she’s married.”
He was extremely familiar with the name Beautiful Fox. She was his sworn enemy.
“Although she is a woman, she has her ways to be ranked second on the Dark Net’s assassination list. However, because she is a woman, she is probably in her forties or fifties. She has no choice but to retire and get married.” Mo Qing wanted to continue, but seeing President Mo’s indifferent expression, he could only shut up.
“Get up and eat.”
This lass was really good at sleeping. She had fallen asleep at nine last night, yet she still didn’t want to get up at seven this morning. Mo Chi looked at his watch. After another five minutes, he picked up his phone and played music.
The petite figure on the bed started to kick her legs and stretch her arms out in frustration as the music started. Finally, she covered her ears with both hands and opened her eyes that were devoid of any desire. She threw a look of disdain at Mo Chi. “I don’t want to get up!”
Young girls at this age were the most grumpy when they woke up.
Mo Chi did not say much. He directly picked up Qin Ran as if he was carrying his daughter. He only put her down carefully when he walked to the washroom. Helpless, Qin Ran could only obediently wash her face and brush her teeth.
Under President Mo’s supervision, she finished her breakfast and drank all the milk before getting into the car that Butler Zhang sent her to work.
The day was relatively peaceful. Nothing messy happened and Qin Ran was very satisfied. Being a nobody in this city was her ultimate wish.
After reaching home, Auntie Sun was preparing dinner. Qin Ran was in a good mood today and had a good appetite. She wanted to try everything in the kitchen, but she also wanted to wait for Mo Chi to come back for dinner. Therefore, she drank a bowl of prawn porridge.
On the way upstairs, she noticed that the uncles and aunties of the Mo Family were all busy at this time. Coincidentally, there was no one on the second floor. Qin Ran quickly entered the master bedroom and turned on the computer.
She entered the website address on the browser and clicked ‘enter’. A website that had never been sold on the market opened. After passing through layers of checkpoints, Qin Ran opened a user chat interface.
She saw the red notification flashing on her computer. It was Ah Li.
