Chapter 384: 383 discovered them in City B

Xiao Wenqing looked timidly at Wu Tianyi. Seeing him seated in silence with a sullen face caused her to reach out and grip his hand, “Tianyi, I know I made a mistake, I promise you, I will not leave again.”

Yesterday, she sneaked away from the villa for a beauty treatment at the beauty salon while Wu Tianyi was taking a nap in the afternoon.

Her facial injuries had completely healed, restoring her previous beauty. She was eager to get further beauty treatments to maintain her appearance. However, Wu Tianyi forbade her from leaving, fearing they would be noticed by the police and Mo Xiuchen’s people.

He wanted her to fully indulge herself once they were abroad.

“Tianyi, I was very cautious yesterday. Those people may not necessarily be looking for us.”

As Xiao Wenqing spoke, she felt somewhat guilty. Initially, she thought there was no problem — yesterday, she was really careful.

“Qin Mu came to City B, even brought his men. They are from the criminal underworld in F City. How would they have come to City B if it weren’t for someone spotting you?”

Wu Tianyi was not as foolish as Xiao Wenqing. Upon learning that Xiao Wenqing had gone to the beauty salon yesterday, he had been on edge, and today, he was even more cautious.

Just half an hour ago, his subordinate informed him that Qin Mu had come to City B.

His phone started buzzing again.

At that sound, Xiao Wenqing felt her heart tightening. Wu Tianyi answered the phone, greeted the person on the other end, and a man’s voice said, “Brother Wu, Qin Mu and his men went to the beauty salon – the same one Sister-in-law went to yesterday.”

Upon hearing that, Xiao Wenqing’s face turned pale.

Wu Tianyi gave Xiao Wenqing a cold look, gave a few orders to the person on the phone, and then hung up.

“Tianyi!” Xiao Wenqing was beginning to feel scared.

“You heard it, right? You still want to say now that you going out wasn’t a problem? Qin Mu has found the beauty salon, that means they are targeting us. I still don’t want to expose us, lurking in the shadows has its advantages.”

Wu Tianyi spoke and at the same time considered his options.

“What shall we do then? Should we call Professor Fu and ask him if we can leave the country earlier?”

Xiao Wenqing wanted to avoid being found even more now. She had evidence against Mo Jingteng in her hand, and likewise, Mo Jingteng had evidence of her guilt.

The reason he agreed to let Mo Zixuan stay in the company was to avoid damaging his reputation all in one go.

However, if she were found by Mo Xiuchen, whether Mo Jingteng would still be threatened by her was uncertain.

“This seems to be the only choice now.”

There was a ruthless glint in Wu Tianyi’s eyes. If it had just been Qin Mu, it would have been manageable. Pushed to the edge, he could’ve resorted to drastic measures and dispatched him.

But he brought other parties into this. Now, other than hiding, Wu Tianyi had no other option.

He dialed Fu Jingyi’s number, hoping he was already prepared and could get them out of the country immediately. If they could escape the country now, Qin Mu finding this place would be pointless.

The phone rang twice. A cold voice answered— it was Fu Jingyi himself.

“Professor Fu, it’s me. We’ve been discovered by Mo Xiuchen. Are things ready at your end? Could we possibly leave the country ahead of schedule?”

Wu Tianyi asked respectfully. He didn’t dare to be disrespectful to Fu Jingyi. Without Fu Jingyi’s help over the years, he would not have opened a pharmaceutical plant.

Most importantly, Fu Jingyi provided him with all the drugs he needed.

Besides, Fu Jingyi was collaborating with a mysterious person of enormous influence. He did not know the identity of the other party, but he knew that they wielded immense power — much greater than he could handle.

That’s why Fu Jingyi was able to evade arrest for so many years and live leisurely.

“Just a few days ago, you said there was no problem. How were you suddenly discovered?”

The voice that came over from the phone betrayed a touch of displeasure. Wu Tianyi’s face changed slightly as he truthfully said, “Yesterday afternoon, Wenqing ventured outside and was seen. Just now, Qin Mu and others went to the place she visited yesterday.”

“What an annoying woman.”

Fu Jingyi coldly huffed at Wu Tianyi over the phone, his voice filled with disdain. He could not understand why Wu Tianyi would take a fancy to a vase like Xiao Wenqing.

And was even stupid enough to have waited all these years for her.

“Professor Fu, I’m worried that Qin Mu will find this place. If we could leave the country now, that would be best. If not, we will hide somewhere else.”

“You leave that place first, I’ll notify you the day after tomorrow.”

Without awaiting his reply, Fu Jingyi hung up the phone.

When Mo Xiuchen received Qin Mu’s call, night had already fallen.

At that moment, he was being invited into a hotel private room by a group of higher-ups from the branch company. When his phone rang, everyone stopped in their tracks. He gestured to them to sit first and then turned and left the room.

“Ah Mu!”

In the brightly-lit corridor, Mo Xiuchen’s tall and slender figure was reflected on the marble wall, a lean silhouette cast back at him.

“Xiuchen, I am just informing you, yesterday someone spotted Xiao Wenqing in City B. Uncle Ming and I arrived in City B this morning, but we were a step too late. She escaped.”

“You are in City B?”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes slightly narrowing when he asked a question that was besides the point.

“Yes, I just arrived today.”

Qin Mu kept his tone steady. Mo Xiuchen’s thin lips tightened slightly, “She must be with Wu Tianyi. If it was just Xiao Wenqing, you would have found her by now.”

“I agree. Besides, Xiao Wenqing’s face is healed now, hinting that your suspicion in the past could be true.”

Over the phone, Qin Mu’s voice was gentle and indifferent as always. Emotion was hard to perceive.

“I thought you were in Qinghai-Tibet, now that you are in City B, you should probably return!”

The words of Mo Xiuchen did not immediately bring any answer from Qin Mu. There was a pause before he lightly replied, “I won’t return for now. I was prepared to move on but delayed my schedule after hearing about someone spotting Xiao Wenqing in City B.”

“Ah Mu, actually…”

Before Mo Xiuchen could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Qin Mu. “I am simply reminding you, Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi have not shown any signs of surfacing. Behind the scenes, they must be strategizing, please be careful.”

He knew that with Mo Xiuchen’s acumen, sooner or later, he would guess the reason for his departure.

Therefore, he didn’t mention Wen Ran’s name, but only asked him to be careful.

In case Mo Xiuchen admitted all, it would lead to even more embarrassment.

Mo Xiuchen, interrupted by him, did not continue talking but answered calmly instead, “I understand. I am currently at the branch company, so it will take at least a week to get back to G City. I have told Ranran to be cautious.”

“Good!”

Qin Mu seemed to smile, albeit a little forced. When mentioning Wen Ran, something twinged in his heart.

It seemed strange. He had met so many women these past few days, paying close attention to each one’s strengths.

Yet, in the end, he discovered none was someone he was willing to spend time with.

All of those women were excellent – whether it be their looks, qualifications, or speech. The issue was that he had certain standards that couldn’t be met.
