After a pause, as if she had made up her mind, Mo Zhu quickly clicked on the mouse twice. Then, the document was opened and a case report appeared in front of her.

Before Mo Zhu could focus and see what was recorded inside, the sound of a door opening came from behind her.

“Why isn’t Xiao Zhu doing the questions properly?”

Without even turning her head, Mo Zhu knew who it was. Her back instantly tensed up. As she listened to the man’s slow footsteps, she turned her head and looked coldly at Huo Xuan.

“What’s your relationship with Feng Yu?” Mo Zhu asked Huo Xuan. There was redness between her brows, and she was so agitated that her hands were clenched into fists as she panted, as if she was going to kill someone in the next second.

At this moment, Huo Xuan had already walked in front of Mo Zhu. Through the girl’s small body, he saw that the top-secret document related to Feng Yu had been accessed on the screen. He frowned and looked at Mo Zhu. “What’s your relationship with Feng Yu?”

Compared to Huo Xuan and Feng Yu’s relationship, the man was more curious about how Mo Zhu met him. One of them was the young master of the Beijing Feng family, and the other was an ordinary student from Qingyuan Village. How did these two people get to know each other? Furthermore, from the girl’s tone, it seemed like the two of them had a close relationship.

“Did you send someone to capture Feng Yu? Where is he now? You better tell the truth and don’t force me to use my fists!” Mo Zhu no longer had the patience to continue arguing with Huo Xuan. She stood up abruptly and grabbed the man’s collar.

Seeing how irritable Mo Zhu was, Huo Xuan quickly explained, “Xiao Zhu, calm down and listen to me properly. I didn’t kidnap Feng Yu. A few years ago, he was schemed against by others and I saved him. However, his health isn’t good now. No matter what your relationship with him is, I’ll definitely bring you to see him when the time comes!”

After hearing Huo Xuan’s explanation, Mo Zhu couldn’t make up her mind. She didn’t know whether she should believe the man’s words or not.

After calming down a little, Mo Zhu loosened her grip on Huo Xuan’s collar and questioned him angrily, “Who ambushed him? How many enemies does he have? Tell me everything, no matter how big or small!”

Staring at the girl’s eyes that were about to spew fire, Huo Xuan placed his finger on the table and gently tapped it. “To be exact, this matter is a little strange. I’m still investigating the mastermind, but I have news from my people that this matter with Feng Yu has something to do with my second uncle…”

Mo Zhu glanced at the man coldly. “Huo Peng?”

“Yes. Back then, when Feng Yu was seriously injured and saved by me, he only left behind one sentence, which was to tell me to be careful of my second uncle. At that time, the situation was urgent, and I noticed that he probably had a lot to explain, but his injuries were too severe. After saying that, he fell unconscious, and he has been unconscious till now…”

When Huo Xuan said this, he looked very gloomy and his tone was also a little sorrowful. Mo Zhu couldn’t help but ask, “So what’s your relationship with Feng Yu?”

“Xiao Zhu, did you know that Feng Yu is the illegitimate son of the Feng family in Beijing?” After a pause and seeing no reaction from Mo Zhu, Huo Xuan continued, “His mother is an illegitimate daughter raised by the Huo family overseas and she is my youngest aunt.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Zhu’s eyes lit up. She looked at Huo Xuan in disbelief and asked, “You’re his cousin?”

“You could say that. Feng Yu had always been raised overseas by his aunt. It wasn’t until he was 13 years old that the old madam from the Feng family brought him back to the old mansion. Not many people know about the fact that his mother is a member of the Huo family.”

If not for Mo Zhu’s question today, Huo Xuan would actually be unwilling to mention Feng Yu. Towards this cousin of his, Huo Xuan owed him too much. If the day came where the truth about how Feng Yu’s had attained his injuries is revealed, his intuition told him that it would definitely have something to do with him!

As if he had thought of something, Huo Xuan pursed his lips and asked, “You’ve been suspecting me since a long time ago? Someone tried to hack into my computer not long ago. Were you the one who did this too?”

Mo Zhu already believed more than half of Huo Xuan’s words. With the man being so honest, she didn’t plan on hiding anything. She nodded and replied, “Yes, it’s me. At that time, I only found out that the Huo family had something to do with Feng Yu’s disappearance, I didn’t know who the culprit was.”

“Now that you know everything, what do you plan to do?” Huo Xuan sighed lightly and asked Mo Zhu indifferently.

“Take revenge for him. No matter who did this, if he dares to lay a finger on Feng Yu, I will definitely return Feng Yu’s injuries and make it a thousand times more painful for him!” Mo Zhu’s tone was like one of a bloodthirsty vulture, and she looked like she could not wait to tear that person into pieces immediately.

Hearing Mo Zhu’s words, frustration suddenly rose in Huo Xuan’s heart. This strange feeling pierced his entire body, making him feel abnormal.

He had asked repeatedly, but Mo Zhu was unwilling to reveal her relationship with Feng Yu. Besides that, she was willing to put herself in danger for this man despite knowing how difficult the path of revenge was.

Who exactly was Feng Yu to Xiao Zhu? It was impossible for them to be siblings. Putting aside the fact that the Feng Yu’s family, the Feng family, was from the capital, Huo Xuan was certain that she was Qin Ya’s biological daughter.

Thinking of this, Huo Xuan felt even more depressed.. In this situation, it might mean that the fiancée he had painstakingly found had someone else in her heart since long ago, and that person was his cousin…
