Chapter 387 The truth behind life: conspiracy uncovered and love reunited
The antique shop was filled with the scent of dusty wood. In the dim light, the old man's cloudy eyes stared at Wen Nuan, as if he wanted to see through her.
"You...you are..." He trembled, and his voice was as hoarse as sandpaper rubbing against wood.
My warm heart rose to my throat. Could this be the Zhao Yong mentioned in the letter?
"My name is Wen Nuan," Wen Nuan tried to remain calm, "I want to know something about my life."
When he heard the word "warmth", the old man's face changed suddenly and he started coughing violently. His hunched body curled up even more, as if he wanted to hide himself.
"I don't know what you're talking about! Go away! Go away!" He waved his skinny hands, his tone full of fear.
Wen Nuan's heart sank. Zhao Yong's reaction confirmed what he knew, but it also showed that he felt threatened.
"Mr. Zhao," Wen Nuan stepped forward and said firmly, "I know you know something and I understand you have concerns. But I promise you that I will protect your safety as long as you tell me the truth."
Zhao Yong looked at her in horror, his lips trembling, but he refused to speak.
Time passed by minute by minute, and warm anxiety climbed up my heart like vines.
Mo Han's suspicion of her and the potential crisis of the Mo family are like a sword hanging over her head.
She must get the truth as soon as possible!
Wen Nuan took a deep breath and said slowly, "Mr. Zhao, I know you're afraid, but have you ever considered that the truth will eventually surface? Instead of passively waiting, it's better to take control of your own destiny. If you don't speak up now, you may never have the chance to speak up again." She paused, her tone softening. "I know you have no choice. Tell me, who is threatening you?"
A trace of struggle flashed in Zhao Yong's turbid eyes. Finally, he sighed like a deflated ball.
"It's...it's the Sun family..." he whispered, his voice as thin as a mosquito.
"The Sun family?" Wen Nuan was shocked. The Mo family's competitor!
"Why are they doing this?"
"They... they want to use your background... to bring down the Mo family..." Zhao Yong said intermittently, "You... you are actually..." He suddenly stopped and looked towards the door in horror. A black shadow flashed by.
"Actually what?" Wen Nuan asked anxiously.
Zhao Yong suddenly grabbed Wen Nuan's hand, squeezing it as hard as if to break her bones. "Child... you are... you are..." He uttered a few words with difficulty, "You are the Mo family's... long-lost... child..."
"What?!" Wen Nuan was so shocked that she was speechless.
Zhao Yong was panting, as if he had used up all his strength, "Your existence... is of great significance to the Mo family..." He suddenly widened his eyes, as if he had seen something terrible. His hands dropped weakly and he muttered, "They... they are coming..." Outside the dim antique shop, a black car stopped silently.
The car door opened and a man in a black suit with a stern face stepped out.
He was exactly the "they" Zhao Yong mentioned - the people sent by the Sun family.
However, he was one step too late.
Wen Nuan tightly grasped the token that Zhao Yong gave her before his death - an ancient jade engraved with the Mo family emblem, and staggered out of the antique shop.
In the chaos, she caught a glimpse of the antique shop owner Zhao Yong, who was already dead. The mixture of fear and grief made it almost impossible for her to breathe.
But she knew that she had to be strong and return to the Mo family with the truth.
The Mo family mansion was brightly lit, and family members gathered together in a solemn atmosphere.
The sudden appearance of warmth broke the strange calm.
She held the ancient jade tightly in her hand, her eyes determined.
"I have something important to announce!" Her voice echoed in the empty hall.
Sun Zhiming, a member of the Sun family, sneered: "Wen Nuan, what tricks do you have? Do you think you can still turn things around?"
Wen Nuan ignored his provocation and walked straight to the head of the Mo family and presented the ancient jade and Zhao Yong's letter.
"This is the evidence I found. It can prove my identity and expose the Sun family's conspiracy against the Mo family!"
The head of the Mo family took the ancient jade, looked at it carefully, and his expression gradually became solemn.
The letter recorded in detail how the Sun family used Wen Nuan's background to plan to divide and disintegrate the Mo family and seize the Mo family's assets.
The truth came to light, and everyone in the Mo family was in an uproar.
Sun Zhiming's face turned pale. He wanted to argue, but was interrupted by the Mo family's patriarch's angry shout: "Sun Zhiming, what else do you have to say?!"
The Sun family's conspiracy was exposed, and the Mo family's business avoided a huge crisis.
Everyone looked at Wen Nuan with eyes full of gratitude and admiration.
Wen Nuan, the girl who was once abandoned by her family, has now become the guardian of the Mo family.
Wen Nuan took a deep breath, looked around, and her eyes finally fell on the empty doorway.
She slowly said, "One more thing..."
Wen Nuan's voice trembled slightly, but was extremely firm: "There is one more thing... about Mo Han." Everyone's eyes were focused on her, including Mo Han, who had been standing in the corner in silence.
Wen Nuan walked towards him step by step, each step felt like walking on the edge of a knife, but with an unswerving determination.
"I misunderstood you before, I'm sorry."
Mo Han's deep eyes were tightly locked with warmth, and no emotion could be seen on his face, making it difficult to read.
Wen Nuan stood in front of him and told him without reservation about Mo Han's previous doubts about her life experience, as well as the misunderstandings and grievances she had caused because of it.
The hall was silent, with only warm voices echoing, telling about the misunderstandings that had occurred between them during this period.
When Wen Nuan talked about how she went alone to find the truth and encountered danger, and how Zhao Yong told her the truth before he died, Mo Han's face finally changed.
A trace of pain and self-blame flashed in his eyes, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line.
After Wen Nuan finished speaking, she looked at Mo Han quietly, waiting for his response.
After a long time, Mo Han slowly spoke, his voice low and hoarse: "I'm sorry, Wen Nuan, I shouldn't have doubted you." He took a step forward and hugged Wen Nuan tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones.
"I'm so afraid of losing you, that's why..."
Warm tears finally burst out of her eyes, and she hugged Mo Han tightly back, feeling the familiar breath on him, feeling his warmth and strength.
The misunderstanding between the two of them completely disappeared at this moment, and their feelings quickly heated up, becoming even stronger than before.
"Together, let's make those who hurt us pay the price." Mo Han's voice sounded in Wen Nuan's ears with unquestionable firmness.
Wen Nuan raised her head, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "Okay."
With complete evidence of the Sun family's conspiracy in hand, Wen Nuan and Mo Han teamed up to launch a fierce counterattack against the Sun family's business.
They submitted the evidence to the relevant departments and used the power of the media to expose the ugly face of the Sun family to the public.
The stock price of Sun's company plummeted, partners terminated their contracts one after another, and the company fell into a crisis.
Sun Zhiming was extremely anxious and ran around everywhere, but was powerless to save the situation.
In the end, he was dismissed by the board of directors, and the Sun family business faced bankruptcy. The once invincible Sun Zhiming now ended up in disgrace.
The dust settled, and the Mo family mansion returned to its former tranquility.
Wen Nuan and Mo Han stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the night view of the city.
"It's all over." Wen Nuan said softly.
Mo Han held Wen Nuan's hand tightly, his eyes filled with tenderness. "No, this is just the beginning." He turned to look at Wen Nuan, a meaningful smile on his face. "Next, we have more important things to do."
At the same time, in a hidden corner, a pair of eyes were watching all this closely...
Wen Nuan uncovered the mystery of her life experience and crushed the Sun family's conspiracy. The entire Mo family looked at her with admiration.
The warm-hearted mother who had been hiding in the dark finally plucked up the courage to step forward in front of everyone after seeing her daughter being so strong and brave.
With tears streaming down her face, she trembled as she walked towards the warmth, choking with sobs and unable to speak.
When Wen Nuan saw her mother, her eyes also turned red. The two hugged each other tightly, and all the grievances and longings turned into tears at this moment.
The touching scene of mother and daughter reunion moved everyone present.
Wen Nuan and Mo Han joined hands to completely bring down the Sun family, not only saving the Mo family business, but also making Sun Zhiming receive the punishment he deserved.
Mo Han looked at the strong and intelligent woman beside him, his heart filled with love and admiration.
After going through so many ups and downs, their relationship has become stronger and their trust in each other has become deeper.
In the garden of the Mo family mansion, Wen Nuan and Mo Han walked side by side, enjoying this moment of tranquility.
"Everything is over." Wen Nuan leaned gently on Mo Han's shoulder, her tone was a little tired, but also full of happiness.
Mo Han hugged Wen Nuan gently and whispered in her ear, "Yes, everything is over. From now on, I will always protect you and will never let you get hurt again."
Wen Nuan raised her head and looked into Mo Han's deep eyes, her heart filled with sweetness and emotion.
She reached out her hand, gently stroked Mo Han's cheek, and said softly, "Thank you, Mo Han."
Mo Han held the warm hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it gently, "Silly, why are you thanking me? You are my wife, and it is my duty to protect you."
Just as the two were immersed in a happy atmosphere, a servant came running over in a hurry, looking panicked.
"Sir, Madam, something bad has happened! Something happened at the old house!"
Wen Nuan and Mo Han looked at each other, and a sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.
They immediately rushed to the old house, only to find the door open and the inside in a mess, as if it had been through a catastrophe.
"What's going on?" Mo Han asked in a deep voice.
The servant trembled and said, "I... I don't know. I just heard a loud noise coming from the basement, and when I went downstairs... it looked like this..."
Wen Nuan and Mo Han immediately rushed to the basement, only to see a huge crack on the wall of the basement. Next to the crack was an ancient wooden box with some strange symbols engraved on it, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
Mo Han looked at the wooden box, his brows furrowed. "What is this?"
Wen Nuan walked forward and reached out to open the wooden box, but was grabbed by Mo Han.
"Be careful, this thing looks dangerous."
At this moment, the wooden box suddenly opened by itself, and a dazzling light shot out from it, illuminating the entire basement...
"This..." Wen Nuan looked at the contents of the wooden box in surprise, her tone filled with disbelief, "Could this be..."
