Rong Moyun blurted out, "Is there even a need to ask? Your biological father is of course Fu Jinye, the young master of the Fu family!"

"Hahaha... Momo, you have no idea how amazing your mother was back then! Fu Jinye was a diamond bachelor who never even touched a woman, the dream lover of countless women in the capital! But your mother not only forced herself on him, she succeeded! Isn't your mother amazing? Hahaha..."

Gu Momo couldn't help but give her own mother a thumbs up in her heart!

Wow, my goodness! This actually works?!

However, speaking of which, she did have some impression of the Fu family.

That's the Fu family, which once dominated the capital and later shifted its focus to Ye City.

The capital city was once filled with powerful families, including the Li, Rong, and Fu families, plus the once-declining Shao family. They seemed to dominate the entire capital and were the four most feared families in the city.

However, the Shao family later declined, and the Fu family's power also shifted entirely to Ye City. In the end, the only true overlords of the entire capital were the Li family and the Rong family, while the declining Shao family became a legend that could only live on in people's memories.

Gu Momo quickly gripped her phone and asked urgently, "What happened to Fu Jinye after that?"

The entire Fu family moved from the capital, but with such a prominent figure as Fu Jinye, it's impossible for the Rong family to have completely disappeared without a trace, right?

Grandpa Rong was slightly taken aback, then said in a deep voice, "Mo Mo, there's something I need to tell you."

"After your mother slept with Fu Jinye, she completely disappeared from the capital's sight. Later, for some reason, Fu Jinye also quickly disappeared from the capital. At that time, many people were saying that Fu Jinye did it to pursue a woman..."

Gu Momo's delicate eyes curved into a charming smile, and she smiled playfully, "Could it be that you're pursuing my mother?"

Without even thinking, Rong Moyun immediately rejected the idea, "Impossible! Back then, Fu Jinye disliked your mother the most!"

Speaking of this, Rong Moyun was filled with anger, "Back then, everyone in the capital knew that your mother loved him, loved him passionately, and the whole city knew about it! But Fu Jinye didn't even glance at your mother!"

"That little bastard, when your uncle finds him, he'll pluck all the hair off his body!"

"Pfft, hahaha..." Gu Momo couldn't help but laugh. "Thank you, Uncle and Grandpa! I understand some things now. I'll come back to the Rong family to visit you another day."

She hung up the phone, her eyes gradually becoming clear and cold, her gaze growing increasingly firm.

She absolutely trusted her mother's judgment and was absolutely certain that she wouldn't misjudge Fu Jinye.

But where could she possibly find Fu Jinye?

Soon, Li Zhanting's car arrived at the outskirts of the capital.

Here, the maple leaves are as red as fire, and for dozens of miles there are only desolate mountains and fields, rarely visited by people, making it a good place to hide important secrets.

What appears to be just wilderness is actually a secret base planted by Gu Momo in the capital. All the important items that Gu Momo needs to handle in the capital are sent here.

Naturally, this also includes that box that no one can open.

Li Zhanting parked the car in the maple forest. His deep eyes gazed intently into the depths of the forest, his gaze darkening slightly.

"Momo, are you planning to go in by yourself, or do you want me to come in with you? Hmm?"

Without a second thought, Gu Momo strode into the depths of the maple forest, saying, "Just you wait!"

This guy actually wants to go in with her? What is he thinking? Ha!

This is the underground base of the Liuli Pavilion in the capital. Bringing Li Zhanting in would be like exposing our identities.

Just as Li Zhanting was about to say something, he suddenly sensed dozens of killing intents approaching from not far away.

A ruthless glint flashed in the man's deep eyes, like that of a hawk. He changed his mind before speaking, "Fine, then Momo, go do what you need to do. I'll wait for you here."

Li Zhanting naturally knew that Gu Momo was hiding countless secrets.

Just like him, he never revealed his countless secrets to Gu Momo.

Since she has her own secrets, all he can do is respect her and help her keep them.

Gu Momo patted Li Zhanting on the shoulder affectionately, "Thanks!"

Li Zhanting: "..."

I'm going to be your husband, can you please stop treating me like a brother?

Gu Momo quickly turned around and walked deeper into the maple forest.

Li Zhanting's deep gaze followed Gu Momo's departing figure until she completely disappeared from sight, at which point his dark eyes turned cold and ruthless.

The cold smile on his thin lips was chilling. "If you want to make a move, then come out."

*

Gu Momo quickly stepped into the underground base.

Gu Momo had actually already spotted the assassin outside.

She couldn't easily lead the assassins into the secret base, but in reality, once the assassins stepped into the outer perimeter of the maple forest, they were already completely surrounded by an infrared mesh in the air.

After she leaves, the subordinates guarding the Liuli Pavilion will immediately step forward to help Li Zhanting.

What she had to do was get to the base and get the box!

"Sect Master!" As Gu Momo arrived, Li Mo came to greet her from afar.

The underground base in the capital is just a small branch among the countless branches of the Liuli Pavilion.

This place is constructed with various high technologies, and its external defenses and internal systems are all forged with high technology to form a tight system.

Gu Momo casually waved her hand, "This is just a meeting place, not the headquarters of Liuli Pavilion. You don't need to follow the rules of Liuli Pavilion so strictly. Is the box open? Give me what's inside first."
