Five years ago, Gu Momo saved the Empire's richest man and was forced to conceive a child.
Five years later, she returned强势 with countless secret identities. Countless tyants knelt before...
"Damn, He Chen, your boyfriend is... he's a real heavy drinker!" Jenny mumbled incoherently, barely managing to stay rational.
Gu Momo stared at the last sip of wine in his glass, grabbed his wrist and shoved it into his mouth, saying modestly as she did so, "No, he only came after you'd all been drinking for half the night, he's not that great."
Here, someone's face darkened again, and he took a swig of his drink alone.
With Gu Momo pushing him, Jenny downed the last sip of his drink, and immediately felt unwell, bending over and running to the side to vomit.
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting exchanged a glance, then seized the opportunity to run to his side. "Brother Jenny, are you alright? Can you still drink? How about we call it a day? I'll take you back to your room to rest."
She pretended to be concerned and patted Jenny on the back to comfort him, then casually took the warehouse key from his pocket.
"I can't take it anymore, I really can't. You guys keep drinking, I'm going back to sleep." Jenny waved his hand and staggered into the house.
Gu Momo stood there until he walked away, and then Li Zhanting came to his side with a dark face.
From the moment he left until now, this guy has drunk at least two bottles of liquor and countless beers, how come he still looks so energetic?
Could it be that he really can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?
Gu Momo stared into his deep eyes, and a feeling of admiration and envy welled up within her.
"Are you really alright?" She asked, still a little worried, holding up her hand to show a five, then asked again to confirm, "Do you know what number this is?"
Li Zhanting glanced at her sideways, clearly not wanting to answer this rather silly question.
"I think you should be fine." Gu Momo grinned, giving herself an out. "Let's go, I've already got the keys."
As she spoke, she took the man's hand and walked towards the warehouse.
Because they had overheard one of Ala's men casually mention that the warehouse was being guarded by someone, the two remained extremely cautious upon arriving at their destination.
After looking around several times and making sure there was no one guarding the dark area, he walked to the warehouse door.
"With so many warehouses here, can you be sure which one it is?"
“Of course.” Gu Momo blinked, took out a mini flashlight from her pocket, and shone it on the doorknobs of several warehouses. One of the doorknobs immediately flashed a pale green fluorescence.
As Gu Momo walked toward the warehouse door stained with fluorescent agent, she explained, "When I was talking to Ala's men just now, I deliberately applied a little fluorescent agent to his sleeve. This stuff is specially made by me. It doesn't glow in the dark, but it will show its color as soon as you shine this little flashlight on it."
After a few tries, they quickly found the right key to open the door.
"It's open!" Gu Momo exclaimed happily, and Li Zhanting was also happy for her.
After opening the door, the two walked in together, and Gu Momo was completely shocked by the room full of packaged Mandekin products.
The quantity here far exceeds the cargo that Allah hijacked from their ship, so it seems that Allah's motives are not simply business.
He seized all the Mande gold on the market and then sent men to hijack the ship she was loading her cargo. It was clear that he wanted to destroy her jewelry business!
"This guy is incredibly ruthless!" Gu Momo gritted her teeth. He was planning to take over her jewelry business!
Seeing the fleeting anger and hatred in her eyes, Li Zhanting's gaze also turned sinister.
But when he looked at Gu Momo, his gaze was replaced by tenderness.
"Don't worry, we'll settle accounts with him regarding the lives of your men and this shipment!"
Unexpectedly, at that moment, a fierce and menacing voice laughed wildly from outside:
"Hahahaha, settled? Li Zhanting, are you settling accounts with me, or am I settling accounts with you all?"
A sinister laugh came from outside the door. The two turned around at the same time and found that the warehouse door was completely surrounded by Ara's men.
These people had ferocious expressions, and the familiarity they once showed with Gu Momo and Li Zhanting was no longer visible on their faces. Holding knives and guns, they surrounded Gu Momo and Li Zhanting like countless bees, leaving them no way to escape.
The next moment, Ala, leaning on his cane, stood in the very center of the group, exuding an imposing aura:
"Hahaha! Gu Momo, Li Zhanting, I've been waiting for you for so long! I didn't expect you to actually walk right into my trap!"
"Heh...you're pretty impressive too." Gu Momo's mocking gaze swept over Jenny, who had just been complaining about being completely drunk. Now, he was standing unharmed next to Ala, showing no signs of being drunk at all.
Gu Momo and Li Zhanting instantly realized that this was a trap set for them by the wealthy businessman Ala!
Judging from this alone, he is much smarter than his former subordinates in the Dark Moon organization.
"You think you can get this shipment out of my sight by getting my men drunk and obtaining the keys? You're too naive!" Ala sneered. "I knew about your plan all along; I was just waiting for you to walk right into my trap!"
Li Zhanting stood subtly in front of Gu Momo, an unseen smile playing in his deep eyes:
"So, Mr. Alla set up a rather elaborate scheme to capture us?"
The wealthy businessman, Ala, sneered arrogantly, "Hmph! Do you think I, Ala, am just joking? Gu Momo, from the moment you appeared before me disguised as a man, I knew things weren't so simple. I originally thought I could catch you alone, but I didn't expect that President Li Zhanting would actually protect you and be willing to risk his life for you. Considering how much you love each other, I'll be a good person today and send you both on your way!"
