Chapter 84: In Trouble
Huo Min instructed Manager Wen to personally escort Mu Yuan back to the villa.
He said he would deliver it personally.
To be more precise, it was an escort.
On the sightseeing bus, Manager Wen looked through the rearview mirror at Mu Yuan, who had been wearing a stern expression since getting on the bus. He said cautiously, "Madam, the terrain here is complex, and there's already a professional search and rescue team. President Huo didn't let you go because he was worried something might happen to you."
Just now, President Huo asked him to send Mu Yuan back personally.
Mu Yuan's expression changed immediately.
He also said, “I’m not going back.”
As a result, Mr. Huo said directly: "You can't help."
Mu Yuan was so angry that she left.
Mu Yuan's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and just looking at him made people shrink their necks in fear.
Seeing Mu Yuan said nothing.
Manager Wen closed his mouth nervously, not daring to speak anymore.
"Drip, drip." The raindrops hit the roof of the sightseeing bus, making a sound.
It's raining.
Mu Yuan's brows gradually furrowed.
There is a lot of moss on the north side, and the road is already slippery. If it rains, the road may become even more slippery and unwalkable.
Search and rescue operations may even be forced to stop.
By the time the car came to a complete stop, the rain had escalated from a drizzle to a heavy downpour.
Manager Wen hurriedly wanted to get out of the car and hold an umbrella.
But Mu Yuan stared at the raincoat he stuffed into the storage compartment: "Please give me the raincoat."
Manager Wen didn't think much about it and obediently handed her the raincoat.
Mu Yuan took the raincoat and said thoughtfully: "Thank you."
Manager Wen watched everyone enter the house before he dared to leave.
Mr. Huo has instructed that the person must be sent home.
Manager Wen then drove back.
The rain is too heavy.
The search and rescue operation was forced to be suspended.
The person has not been found yet and the situation is serious.
The agent kept wailing.
Zhao Xitao was annoyed when he heard this and called someone to send her away quickly.
Then he walked over to Huo Min, took in his cold expression, and sighed, "Your tone when speaking to my sister-in-law just now wasn't very nice. Although she's quiet and gentle, she's actually very strong-willed and doesn't like being suppressed. I know you're worried about her being in danger, but next time, speak nicely."
Huo Min recalled Mu Yuan's angry expression just now, and pursed his thin lips into a straight line.
Without saying a word.
Zhao Xitao shook his head helplessly.
Anyway, in his opinion, there are still big problems in the relationship between these two people.
One is arbitrary and the other is stubborn, so sooner or later they will have a conflict.
Manager Wen got out of the car.
He felt a sharp gaze, and when he looked up, he met Huo Min's sharp black eyes. He walked forward nervously and reported: "Boss Huo, the person has been sent home."
Huo Min said sternly, "Did you see her enter the house?"
"Enter the house, enter the house!"
The chill in Huo Min's body finally faded away.
Not far away, Captain Lu, the last search and rescue team leader to return, walked over.
Ask directly: "Are you sure the person was lost in the northwest direction?"
Huo Min raised his brows: "What? Did you find anything?"
Captain Lu frowned. "We just searched along the cliff edge and didn't find any footprints. This proves that no one was near the edge of the cliff. There's no possibility of falling off the cliff."
Manager Wen quickly responded, "That's impossible. The photography team said the man disappeared on the northwest cliff."
Huo Min's dark eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, and he said in a deep voice, "Captain Lu, if you have something to say, just speak frankly."
Zhao Xitao glanced at Huo Min and realized something: "Yes, Captain Lu, there are no reporters or media here. We are all family. You can speak directly if you have anything to say."
Captain Lu: "Anyway, we can now rule out the possibility of someone falling into the cliff. Relatively speaking, this is good news. Once the rain stops, I'll send team members to search other directions as well."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards where the team members were.
Manager Wen turned his head and wanted to say something, but when he saw Huo Min's sinister expression, his heart skipped a beat: "Huo, Mr. Huo, what's wrong?"
Zhao Xitao, who had already guessed Huo Min's thoughts, spoke for him directly: "Where is Tang Nana's agent?"
hall.
Huo Min leaned lazily on the sofa, his long legs folded, his black eyes filled with ice-pick sharpness as he examined his agent expressionlessly.
The agent swallowed hard and spoke nervously, "Mr. Huo."
"Where are they?"
The agent played dumb: "Who are you talking about?"
Zhao Xitao, standing aside with his arms folded and a face full of speech, said: "Stop pretending. What on earth are you trying to accomplish by playing this disappearing trick?"
The agent suppressed his panic and said, "Doctor Zhao, what are you talking about? What disappearance trick? Nana is really missing."
Huo Min's expression was stern: "Three seconds. If you don't speak up, you will suffer the consequences."
The agent's eyes widened.
Huo Min's voice, as if about to chop down a sickle, had already begun counting down: "Three... Two..."
Zhao Xitao: "You guys put on this show on purpose, what exactly do you want to do? Tell me now!"
"one."
The agent was already on pins and needles, but he kept repeating, "I really don't know..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, he was frightened to death by the sudden kick over of the table.
Even though there was a carpet, the wooden table still made a muffled sound when it fell to the ground.
The agent raised her head as if her neck was rusty, looking at Huo Min who had suddenly stood up and was now looking down at her coldly.
Huo Min's voice was as gloomy as a ghost: "Don't you want to be in the modeling industry anymore?"
The overwhelming low pressure around her was like an invisible hand, tightly gripping her neck and suffocating her.
The agent looked terrified.

villa
Zhao Keqiong was tired from climbing the mountain, so she gave the task of taking care of Guangguang to her.
Guangguang was playing when he remembered something. His eyes became bright and round: "Aunt, I just saw my cousin's red cloth!"
Mu Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa, was stunned for a moment, her almond-shaped eyes filled with curiosity: "What did he... write?"
Guangguang was puzzled but repeated, "May my wife live forever, and may spring come to her every year. Auntie, what does this mean?"
Mu Yuan's eyes were turbulent, and for a moment she seemed to have lost her voice and couldn't speak.
Guangguang waited until he lost interest and went upstairs to play by himself.
Mu Yuan sat alone in the hall, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Her shoulders moved slightly, she came back to her senses, and walked out in confusion.
I met a strange man wearing a resort uniform, and he looked anxious.
"Hello? What's going on?"
"Madam, Mr. Huo and Dr. Zhao just fell to the bottom of the mountain during the search and rescue operation. Manager Wen asked me to come and inform you."
Mu Yuan was shocked, her heart in her throat: "What?!"
"The search and rescue team is currently carrying out the rescue. Please don't worry too much."
Mu Yuan's brain was buzzing, and she couldn't listen anymore. She tightly grasped the other person's hand and stared blankly: "Where did the accident happen to them?! Take me there!"

hall.
Manager Wen rushed in and said, "Mr. Huo, we've found Miss Tang!"
Huo Min's cold gaze finally left his agent's face.
The agent breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Xitao was curious: "Where did you find it?"
Manager Wen said, "Ms. Tang came back on her own. She fell and got covered in mud, and suffered some minor injuries. The medical team from the search and rescue team is bandaging her right now."
"That's good that I found her. I'll go find Nana!" The agent showed a relieved expression and ran away.
A hint of thought flashed across Huo Min's eyes.
Zhao Xitao also came over with a confused look on his face: "So, is Tang Nana really missing? I thought they were playing some tricks. It seems like this agent is hiding something. But now that she's been found, it's fine as long as nothing happened."
Huo Min didn't reply, but looked at Manager Wen with a stern expression: "Which direction did she come back from?"
