Chapter 123: Xu Mo Gets Involved  

Xu Wanting felt it was time to meet Xu Mo and urge him not to meddle in the affairs of the mistress and her daughter, to refrain from hurting Xie Bingyan.

Xie Bingyan had been languishing for some time now and had finally started to recover. Xu Wanting pleaded with Xu Mo not to rub salt in her wounds.

However, Xu Mo probably wasn’t willing to see her.

The last time they were at the venue, he didn’t even greet them, just turned and left. Xu Wanting didn’t know what to do now, feeling that things were spiraling towards an increasingly dangerous direction.

Xie Bingyan would soon arrive in Wuzhen. In the end, Xu Wanting couldn’t bring herself to see Xu Mo and had to go to pick her up at the airport.

There was only one night left before the mistress would likely leave. They had to act quickly now.

When Xu Wanting saw Xie Bingyan, she noticed Xie Bingyan’s grim expression.

“Where is he?” she asked, clearly suppressing her anger.

“Dad is still at the hotel, but that woman… we’re not sure where she is right now!”

“Let’s go!” Xie Bingyan moved forward swiftly, without hesitation.

Xu Wanting sighed involuntarily at the sight.

“Sis, what’s going on now?” Xu Shuying asked anxiously from behind.

Xu Wanting glanced at her, pondered for a moment, and sighed, “Xu Mo is involved in this. It looks quite serious!”

“What?” Xu Shuying exclaimed.

“We don’t know his intentions yet, but one thing’s certain, Xu Mo has definitely done a lot! I suspect both the mistress and her daughter were brought here by Xu Mo!” Xu Wanting continued.

“…,” Xu Shuying became visibly flustered.

If Xu Mo was involved, it could indeed be terrifying. Recently, he had taken two significant actions against the Xu family, with enormous repercussions. No one knew just how strong his desire for revenge truly was.

According to current speculations, it seemed unlikely that Xu Mo would stop anytime soon.

“What… what should we do?” Xu Shuying asked in a panic.

Xu Wanting shook her head, silent and uncertain about what to do next.

Meanwhile, Xu Mo had already made plans to leave Wuzhen.

However, there were still a few people he needed to meet before departing, so he decided to stay a little longer.

This time, Xu Mo was meeting with several manufacturers from Yiwu, intending to persuade them to join Pinduoduo, requiring negotiations.

After the talks, he planned to leave Wuzhen.

However, at three o’clock in the afternoon, Xu Deming suddenly received a message inviting him to dinner.

Accompanying him were Lu Xiangru and Lu Hongluan, mother and daughter.

Hmm!

It was Lu Hongluan who sent the message, asking if he would join them. She wanted him to have a meal with them.

Originally!

According to Xu Mo’s thoughts, it was impossible to have dinner with Xu Deming, there was no meaning, but at this time, he felt that he needed

Even if it’s just to take a few photos.

He also wants to see how Xu Wanting will handle things.

Besides, even without much affection, Xu Mo doesn’t want Lu Hongluan to get into trouble, so it’s good to go over.

“Xu Mo, are you sure everything’s okay?” Gu Huanxi saw him heading out, feeling somewhat worried.

“No problem!” Xu Mo replied.

“Alright then,” Gu Huanxi said reluctantly.

Xu Mo changed clothes and soon arrived at Xu Deming’s place. Xu Deming hadn’t arrived yet, but Lu Xiangru and Lu Hongluan had already arrived here.

When Lu Hongluan saw Xu Mo coming, she immediately smiled and said, “Big Brother Xu Mo!”

With that, she hurried over to Xu Mo.

Xu Mo nodded and followed them upstairs.

“Are there others from the Xu family coming over?” Lu Xiangru was evidently no fool; she seemed to have an idea about what was going on. After sitting down, she asked Xu Mo.

Xu Mo hesitated for a moment, then smiled, “Possibly! There might be quite a few…”

“I think we should leave early!” Lu Xiangru expressed her concern.

“You leaving or staying won’t make much difference now. They probably already know about these matters! From what I know, they might be here in Wuzhen by now,” Xu Mo said.

“I… I hope Hongluan can settle down in the Xu family,” Lu Xiangru said, revealing her desire.

In truth, she still loved Xu Deming, but because of Xie Bingyan’s influence, she couldn’t get close anymore.

“If it weren’t for my daughter’s heart condition, she probably wouldn’t have come this time.”

Money is secondary; what she truly wants is a status for her daughter.

“I can help you,” Xu Mo said calmly. “You should know my status. Once I approve, others won’t be a problem. Just stay strong no matter what happens next. No one can harm you.”

“But what about you…”

As Lu Xiangru and Lu Hongluan knew, Xu Mo was truly the young master of the Xu family. Although the favored young master received much affection, in terms of status, he couldn’t compare to the real young master. Moreover, Xu Mo had already established his own success. If he returned to the Xu family, he could definitely become a key figure for the next generation of the family.

Xu Mo’s assurances could become a reality.

However, what worried Lu Xiangru was whether Xu Mo, the biological son of Xie Bingyan and Xu Deming, would really do as he said. Could he have some hidden agenda?

“You don’t need to worry,” Xu Mo calmly sipped his tea and said, “I’ve said it. If possible, I hope they all die soon, including Xie Bingyan. I believe you have some understanding of my situation. I won’t say more.”

Lu Xiangru did have some understanding, but she still found it hard to believe. After thinking it over, she said, “Then, we trust you!”

“Good then!” Xu Mo smiled. “So, no matter what happens later, you don’t need to worry. Even if Xie Bingyan brings people here, don’t worry. I’ll handle it! I will ensure Hongluan enters the Xu family, gets registered, and truly becomes a part of the family.”

“…”

“Thank you!” Lu Xiangru felt relieved.

Xu Mo nodded, took a few more bites of food with her, glanced outside, and suddenly saw Xu Deming outside the restaurant.

He seemed to be in a hurry, walking quickly towards them with an anxious expression.

Xu Mo narrowed his eyes, looked up into the distance, and suddenly saw a few familiar figures appearing far away.

Wasn’t it Xu Wanting, Xie Bingyan, and the others?

They were coming over too!

Of course!

Xu Wanting’s people had been keeping an eye on Lu Xiangru and her daughter the whole time, so it was impossible not to know they were here. It was perfectly normal for them to easily find this restaurant.

Xu Mo gestured to a waiter to start serving.

“Sorry I’m late, Xu Mo…” Xu Deming saw Xu Mo again, appearing somewhat awkward yet happy.

Xu Mo felt indifferent towards him now. “Hongluan can’t eat spicy food, so let’s have something light. It’s better for her health.”

“Alright, alright…”

Xu Deming sat down, smiling broadly, and started eating.

Xu Mo also served some dishes to Lu Hongluan, and they all sat together, enjoying the meal and chatting happily.

Meanwhile, Xu Wanting arrived with Xie Bingyan.

According to the intel, Xu Mo was supposed to be present, and Xu Wanting wasn’t keen on coming. However, Xie Bingyan couldn’t contain her anger and stormed towards the restaurant with a dark expression.

When the four of them arrived at the restaurant, they happened to see Xu Mo and Xu Deming dining together, vigorously helping the illegitimate daughter with her food, filling up a whole big bowl.

Silence. Utter silence!

Suddenly it felt suffocating!
