“So what if I’m confused?” Gu Momo said without hesitation. “He’s my dad. If I don’t trust him, who can I trust? Besides, in terms of experience, probably no one here can compare to my dad. He’s trustworthy!”

Gu Momo's firm voice sounded completely genuine, causing Ye Ruyu and Ye Wanqing to break out in a cold sweat.

Helpless, the two could only grit their teeth and say, "Since you insist on doing this, there's nothing I can do."

After saying that, Ye Ruyu turned around and said, "This is your own decision. If anything happens in the future, you will have to bear the consequences yourselves. Just don't blame us for not reminding you."

Gu Momo smiled mischievously: "Don't worry, I'm determined to believe in my dad!"

Ye Ruyu and Ye Wanqing snorted coldly and then turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zhancheng stopped him: "Wait, since you two have finally found this place, and now is a crucial moment to deal with the Emperor-Slaying Alliance, why don't you act with us? That way, you can look out for each other."

His eyes held a subtle smile, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts.

Ye Ruyu and Ye Wanqing were slightly taken aback, then frowned and said, "You want us to go and die with you? No way!"

Ye Wanqing grabbed Ye Ruyu's hand and started to leave: "Sister, let's go! Don't pay attention to them!"

Just as the two were about to leave, Ye Lingxiao's tall figure subtly blocked their path: "Gentlemen, all information about the Dark Night Alliance and the Glazed Pavilion is confidential. Do you think we'll let you leave after you've uncovered this place?"

"You..." Ye Ruyu was furious, turning her head to glare at Gu Momo and the others through gritted teeth:

"You really are making unreasonable demands! So this is the kind of behavior the Emperor-Slaying Alliance and the Glazed Pavilion engage in!"

"Alright, I'll stay here with you. If you have any plans, feel free to take me with you! I want to see what tricks you'll pull after handing the Blood Jade Ring to Fu Jinye!"

Ye Lingxiao's lips curled into a mysterious smile: "Alright, then we'll see what happens when the time comes."

As he spoke, Ye Lingxiao instructed his subordinates to prepare rooms specifically for Ye Ruyu and Ye Wanqing.

The subordinates immediately began preparations, and the people of the Dark Night Alliance quickly rearranged the floors and rewrote all the internal programs.

Gu Momo specially prepared a large meal for Fu Jinye and even chose some free time to chat with him.

She became increasingly adept and at ease in front of this imposter, even managing to crack jokes with him.

She knew very well that the Emperor-Slaying Alliance was now a disorganized mess, and if she exerted a little more effort from within, this disorganized mess would easily collapse!

Before going to bed, Gu Momo made a special call to Rong's maternal grandfather.

On the other end of the phone, Grandpa Rong was so moved he almost cried: "Waaah, Momo! You finally called your grandpa! My darling Momo has missed Grandpa so much these past few days! How are you all doing in L country? Did you encounter any danger? If you need anything, just tell Grandpa, and Grandpa will make sure you take care of it!"

Hearing that kind and cheerful voice, Gu Momo felt her mood improve, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips:

"Grandpa, that won't be necessary. You and Grandma just need to take good care of Mom. We'll handle things with the Shao family. By the way, Grandpa, you were so familiar with the Shao family back then and you still have a lot of information about them. Could you send me electronic copies of those documents?"

Upon hearing Gu Momo's words, Grandpa Rong immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

He asked in a serious tone, "What's wrong, Momo? Are you really alright over there? You really don't need Grandpa's help?"

Hearing Grandpa Rong's concerned voice, Gu Momo couldn't help but smile: "Grandpa, you're really alright. Zhan Ting and my brother are taking good care of me. Everything is going smoothly here."

"Really?" Old Master Rong was clearly skeptical. Then he said, "Mo Mo needs those documents, right? Wait here, I'll send them to you later! I'll even send you Yue'er's documents!"

Gu Momo's mind skipped a beat when she heard the familiar name Yue'er.

She remembered that Shao Yue'er was very much loved by her maternal grandfather back then, and she also knew that her grandfather had kept a lot of information about the Shao family.

And many of those things were about Shao Yue'er.

So, she said with a heavy heart, "Grandpa, isn't Yue'er the person you miss the most? You should keep it for yourself as a memento. I don't need those documents for the time being."

Grandpa Rong sighed softly on the other end of the phone, his voice betraying his disappointment and regret:

"Yue'er is still a member of the Shao family after all, so there's no point in me keeping it to myself. I'll send it to you, Momo."

Gu Momo heard that Grandpa Rong seemed to have made up his mind, so she said, "Alright, then thank you very much, Grandpa."

After hanging up the phone, a slight look of worry appeared on Grandpa Rong's wrinkled face. Shao Yue'er's clean and clear face seemed to reappear in his mind, and a thick veil seemed to cover his dim eyes.

If Yue'er were still alive, the Shao family might not have suffered this catastrophic disaster!

Unfortunately, Shao Yue'er will never exist again.

Thinking of this, Old Master Rong narrowed his eyes and immediately called his three sons: "You three, get ready immediately and contact the Criminal Investigation Department as quickly as possible. I need your full support for Momo!"

Not long after, Old Master Rong actually sent over all the information about the Shao family, and Gu Momo spent the whole night reviewing it.

But this time, will she really be able to find any useful information from these materials?

......

Fuying woke up again, having already left the abandoned building.

But the scene of Ye Sijue forcing her to shoot arrows was still vivid in her mind. She wrapped herself in the quilt, desperately trying to drive away those terrifying memories from her mind.

Why did Ye Sijue become like this? Why did he have to force himself to do such a thing?

Does he feel happy if he makes her fearful and terrified?

As Fu Ying was still thinking, she heard footsteps outside the door. She quickly crawled back into bed, pretending to be asleep.

The butler, Uncle Mou, came in carrying a bowl of calming soup. She heard the bowl being placed on the table, and the old man nodded respectfully. "Miss Fuying, drink some of this calming soup; it will help you sleep better tonight."

Fu Ying turned over and sat up in bed. "You knew I wasn't asleep?"

“Miss Fuying must have been terrified just now, so once she wakes up, it will be very difficult for her to fall back asleep.” He had experienced this many times before. When the young master was a child, whenever he was taken to that house, he would run out covered in blood. After that, he would lock himself in his bedroom and refuse to sleep all night long, constantly banging his head against the wall while counting in his mind.

But the Dark Moon leader never showed him any mercy.

Because what he wants is a perfect successor, requiring the other party to be completely ruthless and devoid of love, and ultimately capable of using every ruthless means possible!

Why would they care whether the other person is made of flesh and blood?
