I married a petty hooligan in place of my sister, living a life of poverty. Who knew that my husband would suddenly transform into a mysteriously powerful and influential tycoon?

Huo Junyu thought so too.

But how can we get Huo Junyang to accept this?

Neither of them had any good ideas and they were in silence when Huo Junyu's phone suddenly rang.

It was Jiang Can's anxious voice on the other end:

"Junyu, Yangyang just ran out in a panic, saying... saying Ranran wants to break up with him! You need to contact your brother right away and ask him what happened!"

Huo Junyu's expression changed, and he hurriedly dialed Huo Junyang's number.

However, no matter how many times he dialed, no one answered.

Jiang Mianmian told him not to worry, and then dialed Lu Ran's number, but Lu Ran's voice was trembling with tears:

"Sis, I...I just got home and I found that Mom is gone!"

"What?!"

At this moment, both of them had a bad feeling.

"Ranran, listen to me." Jiang Mianmian calmed down and explained the situation in the shortest possible way, "We already know about your mother... That's why you broke up with Junyang, right?"

"sister……"

"How could you be so foolish!" Jiang Mianmian said anxiously. "No matter what, we can't let you face this alone!"

Lu Ran didn't speak. After a long while, she burst into tears on the other end of the line.

"Don't cry," Jiang Mianmian said softly. "Calm down and think carefully. Where might Aunt Cheng go? She's your mother; you definitely know her better than we do!"

"Send the location to my phone once you've decided on it, and I'll send someone to find it!"

"Sister!" Lu Ran suddenly remembered something. "Last time I asked you to go west to find Pei Nian, I also sent you a phone number, right?"

Jiang Mianmian was taken aback; it was indeed true.

“That number should belong to someone my mother contacts frequently.” Lu Ran’s voice trembled slightly. “No… I mean, my mother’s other personality. This number is closely connected to that other personality of my mother’s. I think my mother might have gone to see him!”

"Okay, I understand," Jiang Mianmian replied.

Huo Junyu had previously investigated the backgrounds of those people; they were a small, insignificant gang in Yangcheng, operating in the gray area.

Huo Junyu glanced at Jiang Mianmian, and the two prepared to go find Huo Junyang. However, not long after, another phone call came in.

This time it's Huo Zhixing.

Huo Junyu had never heard his father's voice so panicked: "Junyu... quick, quick, come to the hospital!"

"Dad," he felt a sudden sense of unease, "what happened?"

"Yang Yang..." Huo Zhixing's voice choked slightly as he spoke.

He was proud for half his life, weathered many storms, yet he still had his moments of heroism and tender feelings for his children.

Even the toughest person will be moved when it comes to children.

"Junyu, Yangyang was in a car accident on the road and is currently in emergency treatment. Your mother and I are outside the emergency room..."

"Dad, I'm coming right away!"

Huo Junyu's expression changed, and he immediately took Jiang Mianmian to the hospital.

Thanks to timely rescue, Huo Junyang is out of danger, but he has multiple bruises and will need to rest in bed for a while.

Jiang Can and Huo Zhixing breathed a long sigh of relief and embraced each other, weeping. Huo Junyu watched from afar and realized that his parents had truly grown old.

He and Junyang were their biggest concerns. To ensure their parents could enjoy their later years in peace, they needed to protect their own safety first.

Huo Junyu stepped forward, hugged his mother, and patted his father on the shoulder. He knew that his seemingly calm and composed father was actually very scared, but he couldn't show his vulnerable side in front of his mother.

"It's alright, it's alright!" Jiang Can said in a trembling voice, looking at her eldest son. "You scared me to death!"

"Yangyang has always been a lucky child." Huo Junyu smiled faintly. "Mom, you don't need to worry too much. My brother is a lucky person, he'll definitely be fine!"

“But the way his car accident happened is too bizarre.” Huo Junyu frowned slightly. “His driving skills have always been good, how could this be…”

Before she finished speaking, Jiang Mianmian came over with several police officers.

"No matter how good your driving skills are, you're still afraid of being harmed by others!"

Huo Junyu walked to her side, and saw Jiang Mianmian smile gently.

“These police officers—strictly speaking, they are detectives—are all friends of my father. I notified them as soon as Junyang had the accident. And the case wasn't complicated; it was solved during the rescue process!”

"real?"

Huo Zhixing and Jiang Can quickly went over to them.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry." Jiang Mianmian held Jiang Can's hand. "Actually, Junyu and I both know who the mastermind is. We asked the detectives to investigate in order to be more certain of our guesses."

“That’s right.” One of the detectives smiled and said, “Miss Lu and Young Master Huo are right. The people who caused the Second Young Master’s car accident were a few people from a small gang. These people have now been brought to justice.”

"Their mastermind... is Cheng Suyue?" Huo Junyu's eyes narrowed slightly.

The detective nodded.

“These people have confessed that Cheng Suyue ordered them to keep an eye on the second young master of the Huo family, and to deliberately crash into his car when he drove out.”

"These people were driving heavy trucks, and they deliberately crashed into the vehicle, causing considerable damage. Fortunately, the Second Young Master's car has a high safety rating, otherwise... it might have really turned into a tragedy."

"Damn it!" Huo Zhixing couldn't help but curse, "She dared to hurt my son, I'll take her life!"

"Dad, calm down," Jiang Mianmian advised. "The one who wants to hurt Junyang is not the real Cheng Suyue, but the split personality that she created."

Huo Zhixing did not respond, but gently put his arm around Jiang Can's shoulder.

"This is a bit troublesome," Jiang Can said softly. "She's Yangyang's future mother-in-law and Ranran's biological mother! We..."

"Mom and Dad, don't think too much about it right now," Huo Junyu said. "The most important thing right now is for Yangyang to focus on recovering."

“But…” Jiang Mianmian said worriedly, “Now it’s not just about Jun Yang recovering from his injuries, the most important thing is that Cheng Suyue has disappeared!”

The group fell silent again.

At that moment, another detective who had just gone out to make a phone call turned back and looked at everyone with a light smile.

"Several of my colleagues have already finished reviewing the case."

Jiang Mianmian was taken aback, "So fast?"

"These people don't have strong mental fortitude, so they quickly spilled the truth."

"They said they had always been working for Cheng Suyue, and that Cheng Suyue gave them money, which all came from an account belonging to someone named Lu Ming..."

Jiang Mianmian and Huo Junyu were taken aback.

So it turns out Cheng Suyue had indeed received money from Lu Ming before...

Or rather, the real Cheng Suyue would disdain associating with someone like Lu Ming, while the split personality readily accepted any benefits offered by Lu Ming.

That's why Lu Ming repeatedly forced Lu Ran to impersonate Lu Xiaoyou.

“Furthermore,” the detective continued, “the case of Miss Lu’s project design being plagiarized has been solved, and it was Cheng Suyue’s masterpiece.”
