Chapter 49: Can’t Swallow this Breath of Old Air
“`
But unexpectedly, this was a video that implicated them in a crime!
After watching the video, Mo Zhenggang, Zhang Qin, and Mo Xinyu were all shocked.
Mo Zhenggang’s face turned even darker, “I knew these idiots would mess up! Look, these are the people you found, and now, we’re caught trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice, losing both the wife and the soldiers!”
Mo Zhenggang couldn’t help but vent his anger on Zhang Qin.
Zhang Qin felt somewhat guilty but still defended herself, “How was I to know they would fail? Mo Jun is just a little girl; I thought it would be easy to catch her.”
Yes, even Mo Zhenggang had thought it would be a sure thing to catch her.
And they had deployed so many people.
Who would have thought that not only did they fail to catch her, but they were also captured by the other party?
“Dad, it’s really strange. Who is helping Mo Jun? She couldn’t have caught these people and made them confess about us all by herself,” Mo Xinyu asked with a slight frown of confusion.
“Indeed, husband, there must be someone helping that little wretch,” Zhang Qin said deliberately inciting further.
“You don’t need to tell me, I know!” Mo Zhenggang replied grimly, but he couldn’t figure out who was helping Mo Jun.
Who could be so capable, to have captured all the people he had sent and even forced them to honestly confess everything?
Although the people Zhang Qin found were from all walks of life, they were people who honored their word.
After all, without credibility, they wouldn’t be able to mix in the future.
Yet there were no signs of severe torture on their bodies, and the other party had made them talk, which showed that the methods used were no ordinary means, they were incomparable.
But Mo Jun didn’t know anyone, who would go to such lengths to help her?
As Mo Zhenggang was pondering, Mo Jun’s call came through.
Seeing it was from her, his gaze turned even more sinister, as if the caller was not his daughter, but his archenemy!
“Hello,” Mo Zhenggang said, his tone dark as he answered the phone.
“Have you seen the video? I’m sure you are all shocked, but there’s no need to doubt. I indeed have evidence in my hands of your attempt to kidnap me, and if I hand over the evidence, the Mo Family’s reputation will be utterly ruined. So father, the one-week deadline is almost up. What have you decided about my proposal?” Mo Jun asked with a sneer on the other end of the line.
A daughter who used to be obedient to him was now learning to threaten him.
Mo Zhenggang couldn’t swallow this insult!
“Hah, you think you can threaten me with this? If you run away from home, and I catch you to bring you back, who would dare say I am guilty? Mo Jun, this is a family matter, and the law won’t interfere.”
“Is that so? Who knows I am your daughter?” Mo Jun retorted.
Mo Zhenggang was left speechless…
“If you take it as a family matter, then you have to acknowledge my identity. If you don’t want to acknowledge my identity, then we’ll treat it as a criminal case. Do as you see fit.”
Having said that, Mo Jun didn’t bother with further talk, and immediately hung up the phone.
Mo Zhenggang was so angry he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Dad, what did Mo Jun say?” Mo Xinyu asked immediately.
Mo Zhenggang said through clenched teeth angrily, “What else could she say? She wants to use this to threaten me into agreeing to her terms.”
“We can’t agree to her terms. Dad, Mo Jun’s identity can’t be exposed,” Mo Xinyu said with an appearance of concern for him, “Dad, I’m really afraid that if she finds out everything, it will be bad for you.”
“Yes, husband, we can’t disclose her identity!” Zhang Qin also advised anxiously.
