Chapter 224 How Could Such a Thing Happen?

Mo Nancheng looked at Mo Beichen. Mo Beichen coughed and briefly told them about the tracker he had installed on the necklace. After he finished speaking, Xia Weilan wasn't overly surprised. She seemed to have expected it and just nodded faintly.

This time, Mo Nancheng looked at Xia Weilan in slight surprise. He faintly wondered if Xia Weilan had known about the tracker on her body all along, which was why she hadn't been afraid before.

Just then, Mo Beichen suddenly said, "Big brother, when are you going back to China? It's been a long time since you last went home to visit Grandpa. It's been two years, right?"

"I'll go back in a few days after I finish handling things here." Mo Nancheng straightened his posture. After he finished speaking, he stepped towards the door. Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan automatically followed.

Outside the hotel, several cars were parked. In one of them, Xia Ruolin had already been taken in.

While Mo Beichen and Mo Nancheng were saying their goodbyes, Xia Weilan walked towards Xia Ruolin's car. The door was immediately opened from the inside, revealing Xia Ruolin's guarded face. "What? Didn't you say you'd let me go? You can't go back on your word, can you?"

"What are you afraid of? I'm not like you." Xia Weilan snorted disdainfully.

"Then what do you want from me!" Xia Ruolin said without much confidence.

Xia Weilan rolled her eyes, took out a piece of paper from her bosom, and handed it over. "This is what Grandpa left for you."

Xia Ruolin opened it and saw a half - written will. It said that all the foreign stocks and bonds would be left to Xia Ruolin. These stocks were indeed enough to buy the Xia Group.

The paper was crumpled, but Xia Ruolin's eyes widened. She recognized the handwriting as Grandpa's.

"The other pages were cleaned up. I found this under the table." Xia Weilan's voice was calm.

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.

"I don't know. I don't know." Xia Ruolin's murmured voice came from behind. Xia Weilan didn't look back. The car door behind her was closed again, and suppressed sobs came from inside.

When Xia Weilan walked back to Mo Beichen's side, Mo Nancheng had already left.

"What did you show her?" Mo Beichen looked at Xia Weilan in confusion.

"An eye for an eye. It's just a will with forged handwriting, but it was indeed Grandpa's intention before he passed away." Xia Weilan's tone was calm. She had been angry for a long time before, but strangely, she could calm down now.

She thought Xia Ruolin had no conscience and that this trick might not work, but unexpectedly...

Mo Beichen looked at her expression seriously. It was a long time before he let out a sigh of relief. He reached out and grabbed her hand. His gentle palm wrapped around hers and led her into the car.

After traveling back to China from a foreign land, Xia Weilan finally got one thing off her mind. On the domestic road, looking at the scenery outside the car window, the snow had gradually melted, leaving only wet marks on the ground.

It wouldn't be long before spring arrived. When the sun shone on this land, it could melt the snow and bring prosperity.

Xia Weilan returned to the company. School was about to start in a few days, so she had to arrange the company's affairs properly, especially entrusting Han Yishi to manage the company on her behalf.

Not long after, the Mo family held a grand family banquet.

They invited all their relatives and friends in the capital to celebrate because Mo Nancheng had returned on this day.

Many people had come to the hall one after another, and the old master was also there to receive the guests.

Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen had just arrived not long ago when Mo Nancheng magically produced a delicate rectangular box from somewhere and handed it to Xia Weilan. "Sister - in - law, this is a meeting gift."

"For me?" Xia Weilan's round eyes lit up, and she immediately couldn't wait to open it.

Lying inside was a small but extremely sharp dagger. Just lying quietly in the scabbard, one could feel an extraordinary aura. If it were taken out of the scabbard, it would surely be able to cut through iron like mud.

Xia Weilan stroked it lovingly and said to Mo Nancheng, "Thank you, Second Brother. I like it very much."

"I'm glad you like it. It's for your self - defense. The blade is thin and flexible, so you can carry it close to your body." Mo Nancheng's sharp eyes were bright, deep and charming.

Those eyes were very similar to Mo Beichen's, but more incisive than his.

Seeing the two of them chatting happily, Mo Beichen couldn't help but cough. He said to Mo Nancheng half - jokingly, "Big brother, this is my woman."

Mo Nancheng withdrew his admiring gaze and raised his eyebrows. "Why are you so possessive?"

Before Mo Beichen could react, Xia Weilan had already lowered her head shyly, and her ears turned red. Was it really okay for them to talk about such a topic right in front of her?

However, Xia Weilan didn't notice that Mo Beichen was also stunned for a moment. He awkwardly pulled Xia Weilan closer. His eyes darkened. He had indeed been a bit abrupt just now.

"Hehe." Mo Nancheng let out a soft laugh. "Let's go. Grandpa is waiting for us."

After Mo Nancheng left, Mo Beichen and Xia Weilan immediately followed.

The so - called family banquet was attended by close relatives.

Everyone gathered in the hall, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.

When the old master of the Mo family saw Mo Nancheng coming, a look of satisfaction flashed across his face, but he said, "This kid is never at home. It's been two years since he last came to visit me. Oh, come here quickly and sit beside Grandpa."

If Mo Beichen was the old master's most beloved grandson, then Mo Nancheng was the one he missed the most. Since he finally came back, the old master couldn't help but ask, "Are you tired outside?"

Mo Nancheng looked calm and reserved. He let the old master's kind gaze fall on him. Since he rarely came home, he naturally tried his best to make the old master happy. "Grandpa, how can a man complain about being tired? It's my responsibility."

Hearing this, the other relatives immediately echoed, "Yes, Second Young Master is bringing glory to the country and the family."

"Yes, Second Young Master is really promising."

Mo Donglin and Liu Yinyin were sitting on one side. At this moment, Mo Donglin also said with a faint smile, "Second brother has gotten darker, but also stronger. Second brother, don't leave this time after you're back."

But Mo Nancheng replied, "I'm only back for three days."

Three days was too short. The old master of the Mo family stroked his beard unhappily.

After the family banquet, the three brothers walked into a private room to chat and closed the door.

Liu Yinyin and Xia Weilan stared at each other in the hall.

Liu Yinyin drank tea on her own. During this time, she pretended not to see Xia Weilan and kept a polite distance.

Xia Weilan also had nothing to say to Liu Yinyin and pretended not to notice Liu Yinyin's dissatisfied gaze.

In the room, Mo Donglin took out his treasured fine wine, opened it, and filled the three cups in front of them. "This is the good wine I've specially collected. Second brother, third brother, come."

After a cup of wine, the three of them relaxed and leaned back on the sofa.

They casually asked about Mo Nancheng's recent situation.

Suddenly, Mo Beichen's phone rang. He took a look and suddenly frowned tightly.

"What's wrong?" Mo Nancheng noticed the change in Mo Beichen's mood and couldn't help but ask with concern.

Mo Beichen glanced at Mo Donglin and said calmly, "There's a problem in the company. A batch of fake goods has been found."

Hearing this, Mo Donglin's heart skipped a beat. He also sat up straight and said in surprise, "How could such a thing happen?"

Mo Beichen kept staring at Mo Donglin's reaction. His deep eyes narrowed, and his complex and disturbing gaze shot straight at Mo Donglin. "I also want to know what's going on."

Mo Nancheng sensed something and kept silent, watching the two of them.

"Ring ring ring!" The sudden ringing of the phone broke the silence. Mo Donglin took out his phone, couldn't control himself anymore, and stood up and walked out. "I'll go answer the phone."
