"You're pushing your luck! You're not even worthy of demanding higher prices!"
"Miss Ge, don't be in such a hurry. I have a recording here that I'm sure you'll find interesting."
"What are you going to do!" Ge Ning felt a strange sense of panic at this moment.
"We're all quite gentlemanly and want to be gentlemen, not wanting to fall out with Miss Ge! I also hope the recording on my phone will never be used. So... Miss Ge... you understand."
"Tell me how much you want," Ge Ning said, worried that he would release the recording, ruining her reputation and her entire future.
"Not much, ten million," the man on the other end of the phone said with a grin.
"Ten million! Why don't you just rob someone?! I don't have any."
She only gets three million in pocket money each month. After deducting the money she spends on clothes, jewelry, and bags, where would she get that much money?
"Miss Ge, tell me... if I were to send this painstaking effort to the Mo Group, to Mo Jingchen, would it be worth ten million?" the man on the other end of the phone threatened.
“You…” Ge Ning was angry, but he was powerless to refute it, after all, what he said was true.
If Mo Jingchen finds out, she and the Ge family will be sent to hell!
"Moreover, as far as I know, Mo Jingchen is investigating this matter with all his might! If you can give us the money quickly, we brothers can take it and head abroad, saving you from having to live in fear every night, right?"
"Wait, give me a few days. After all, ten million is not a small amount."
Ge Ning gritted her teeth and agreed, thinking that if An Yiruo could be disliked and kicked out of the Mo family this time, then... would she still have a chance?
Then, multiple ten million will be waiting for me. Well, fortune favors the bold, I'll take the gamble!
"That's right. I hope to continue working with Miss Ge. Hahaha."
The laughter on the other end of the phone sounded sarcastic to Ge Ning, so she promptly hung up!
The phone was slammed to the ground; she was being led around by the nose by a few thugs!
Ten million...
She brought out all her private savings from over the years, plus the several million in savings in her account, which barely amounted to ten million.
Meanwhile, in Mo Jingchen's office, Assistant Zhou said, "President, the IP addresses of these posts all show up overseas, making them difficult to trace. However, we have already begun searching for the original photos, hoping to clear Madam's name as soon as possible."
"Okay, go do it."
After Assistant Zhou left, Mo Jingchen made a phone call.
"Li Ye, do me a favor."
"Is it about your sister-in-law?" Li Ye guessed that Mo Jingchen would call him.
"Well, the other party is acting discreetly, and Assistant Zhou hasn't found anything yet." At this point, Mo Jingchen felt a slight headache coming on.
"When I saw the news, I checked it out immediately. These people always use the same old tricks, so it's nothing new."
"Any results?"
"Those people's methods can't be investigated openly, but who am I? I believe there will be results soon. Just wait a little longer."
"Thanks."
"Don't be so polite with me. Besides, your sister-in-law's business is our business. How can we stand idly by?"
Having such brothers in this life is enough!
Two hours later, Li Ye called: "Jing Chen, I have news. It was done by a few thugs who tinkered with computers. An hour ago, a huge sum of money was transferred into their account."
"Has anyone explained who ordered it?"
"I'll be waiting for you to come and interrogate me personally," Li Ye said with a bloodthirsty expression.
"Coming right away."
Everyone knows Mo Jingchen as a cold and aloof young nobleman. But little do they know, when he gets ruthless, he's no match for anyone else!
In a mysterious room in a corner of the basement of the club run by Li Ye, these people were kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs.
All of them wore expressions of resentment.
"I hope you'll have the same expression in a little while."
As Li Ye finished speaking, the door was kicked open, and Mo Jingchen entered. He unbuttoned his suit jacket, took it off, and tossed it casually onto the sofa. He loosened his tie with one hand, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and looked like a god of the night.
“Tell me, who ordered you?”
These people wanted to uphold their professional ethics and stubbornly refuse to admit it, but the next second, Mo Jingchen's fist showed no mercy.
In a few moments, his companion fell into a pool of blood beside him.
"To tell or not to tell?"
The other two, seeing their compatriot lying on the ground, were terrified and their voices trembled as they said, "Speak, I'll talk."
"There are still some who listen. Go ahead and speak."
Mo Jingchen wiped the blood off his hands with a wet wipe, pulled over a chair and sat down. This must be what the oppressive feeling of a king is like.
"Yes, it was Miss Ge who told us to do this. She said she would give us ten million if it was done."
"The Ge family?"
"Absolutely true! If there is even a sliver of a lie, may I be struck by lightning!"
"You handle the rest. You know what to do."
Mo Jingchen got up, picked up his suit jacket from the sofa, and walked out the door.
As the light outside gradually faded, the remaining two thugs felt a chill run down their spines. What awaited them... would be no easier than their fallen companion...
Driving back to Xinghai Bay, Mo Jingchen learned that the mastermind behind it all was the Ge family! They no longer had any reason to exist.
When he got home, Mo Jingchen was worried that he might smell of blood, so he took a shower in the guest room before returning to the master bedroom.
Looking at the dim light in the room, with the curtains tightly closed, his An'an was curled up on the bed, her thin and frail appearance was heartbreaking.
Mo Jingchen carefully reached out and touched An Yiruo's shoulder: "An'an?"
“You’re back.” An Yiruo turned around, lay on Mo Jingchen’s lap, and looked aggrieved.
"Okay, don't be sad! I'll take you out for a walk in a few days to cheer you up."
"But what about the reporters downstairs from my apartment?"
"Ignore it."
"Do you know who did this?" An Yiruo lay on Mo Jingchen's lap, like a frightened kitten.
"It's been confirmed; it's the Ge family."
"The Ge family? Ge Ning?" Upon hearing this, An Yiruo immediately sat up and looked at him with disbelief.
"Hmm, you know her?"
"Do you remember the first time you went back to the old house, Mom and Grandma told me they would take me to buy clothes?"
That day, when the three of us were having hot pot, we happened to run into her. She took the initiative to come over and greet us, showing great curiosity about my identity.
However, at that time, we didn't make it public, and therefore didn't tell the truth.
"It seems this was premeditated."
"It's all because you're too outstanding! Too attractive!"
"It's not my fault that I'm good-looking," Mo Jingchen said, looking at her with a wronged expression.
"Stop playing the victim!"
