Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

At some point, while Zixiao and Qi Xinye were still trying to get information out of her, Xiao Lizhi quietly led Mo Lingyun away from the room.

Seeing that she couldn't get any answers out of him, Mo Lingyun's eyes were already reddening. Even if Xiao Lizhi was immature, she had to be brought out first. Continuing to watch these things was too cruel for her, a victim of the Mo family incident back then.

But seeing the tears that seemed about to fall from Mo Lingyun's eyes at any moment, Xiao Lizhi panicked: "Hey! Lingyun, don't cry! Don't cry, we'll try our best, that guy what's his name... Ink! Yes, Ink! We'll definitely bring him to justice!"

"puff..."

Mingming felt terrible, but Xiaolizhi looked so certain...

Mo Lingyun couldn't help but chuckle even though she had mispronounced Mo Chi's name.

No wonder... Brother Yu Zhe said that Little Lychee is a very cute person. Apart from being a little silly, isn't she quite interesting?

"I'm fine..." Mo Lingyun wiped away her tears. "I just remembered some things from the past. And Xiao Lizhi, it's not ink, it's ink pond. But it doesn't matter. That person doesn't deserve to have a name, at least he doesn't deserve the surname Mo!"

Little Lychee clenched her little fist and said, "Right! Oh, I misspoke earlier! Anyway, that Mo Chi is definitely not a good person! It's okay, really. You might not know, but Brother Yu Zhe is really amazing. Before you came, he solved so many troublesome cases, and I believe this time will be the same. Even if we can't get any information out of him, once Brother Yu Zhe recovers, he can come and help us. With Brother Yu Zhe on the case, even the worst people will have to beg for mercy!"

"Isn't that a given?"

Upon hearing Yu Zhe's name, the gloom in Mo Lingyun's heart immediately vanished without a trace.

And you, Little Lychee, you idiot! What do you mean I don't know? I've known about Brother Yuzhe for way longer than you have!

But since she was still comforting me, I decided not to argue with her about it.

Just as she was about to take Xiao Lizhi back to the room.

Her phone rang.

Mo Lingyun took out her phone and looked at the video call notification from "Brother Yu Zhe," her eyes widening in surprise.

...................

"So, you're saying you absolutely refuse to talk about it, right?"

On Zixiao and Qi Xinye's side, they were completely at a stalemate. Even with audio and video recordings, Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang showed no intention of being honest at all. On the contrary, their attitude became more and more resolute as they were questioned.

But we can't let Lu Ling and Lu Yao actually beat them up, otherwise it would be like setting up a private court, which is illegal.

Just when she was at her wit's end, a familiar voice rang in Zixiao's ears.

"Thank you for your hard work, Zixiao, and Sister Ye too~ I'll take care of the rest."

"elder brother?!"

Zixiao instinctively turned around to look, but she didn't see Yuzhe.

Ah, that sound just now sounded a bit like a phone call coming from a cell phone.

She and Qi Xinye quickly focused their attention on the phone in Mo Lingyun's hand.

Turning her head slightly, she indeed saw on Mo Lingyun's phone screen that she was currently on a video call with her brother.

Yu Zhe was sitting on the sofa in the living room, dressed in her usual casual clothes. Next to her was Yu Che, who was also dressed in a casual dress. Yu Che looked at the screen with unusual seriousness, as if she had become the decisive and efficient eldest daughter of the Su family again.

Clearly, Yu Che, the older brother, wants to take over the management of things going forward.

Although Zixiao felt a little guilty for her incompetence in not being able to handle things properly before her brother got involved, it still made her feel extremely at ease.

Qi Xinye is the same.

With Xiao Zhe here, there's no need for me to stand at the very front.

Mo Lingyun didn't say anything, but simply turned her phone screen forward, took a few steps forward, and aimed it at Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang, who were kneeling on the ground.

When the two people came into Yu Zhe's field of vision on the phone screen, Yu Zhe waved to them casually.

"Hey there, gentlemen! Do you recognize me?"

"You... Su... Su Yuzhe?"

Uncle Lin immediately tensed up. He knew that the most difficult person to deal with in Fenghai City was none other than Su Yuzhe.

Uncle Wang added on his behalf, "His sister is there too... Be careful, Lao Lin, don't say the wrong thing."

"I know."

The two quickly finished exchanging information and looked back at the screen.

Yu Zhe nodded and said nonchalantly, "It's good that you know me, so I don't have to introduce myself. But I don't know you, because who you are and what your positions are in the Mo family are not important to me. But believe it or not, within half an hour, your pseudo-patriarch Mo Chi will obediently surrender."

44. One reaps what one sows

Hey, this feeling is really nice.

Yu Zhe had wanted to try this for a long time. Not being there in person, but suddenly appearing on the phone screen when the event is about to end or when things are at a stalemate—doesn't that give you the feeling of being a behind-the-scenes boss?

Cough... You've got it backwards, you've got it backwards. Mo Chi should have been the final boss, but Yu Zhe has taken over a bit this time.

His words surprised not only Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang, but also Zixiao and the others.

Just a moment ago we were at a loss, but now the situation has turned into Mo Chi willingly walking into our trap?!

How did you do it? !

Uncle Lin was a little angry: "Do all the families in Fenghai City get things done by bluffing? But unfortunately, let me tell you, this is useless against the Mo family! We have never been afraid of... Ahhh, it hurts!"

Uncle Lin felt another sharp pain in his arm.

Compared to the last time he spoke disrespectfully to Zixiao, this time the pain was even more intense.

Lu Yao pressed his arm to an unfavorable angle, her voice unusually trembling as she spoke: "Watch your...words..."

"Okay, okay, I know! Grandma! Be gentle!! Help me!"

On the screen, Yu Zhe said helplessly, "Lu Yao, take it easy. Don't really break his arm. If you do, we'll have to help with the treatment, which is too much trouble."

"Yes... young master..."

Disrespecting the young master is unacceptable; even twisting your head off wouldn't be too much.

...................

The next wait time was a bit long.

This is no way.

Yu Zhe was certain that Mo Chi would come.

But it will definitely take some time to get here from Cangming City. I guess we should be arriving by now.

Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang firmly believed that Su Yuzhe was bluffing. More than twenty minutes had passed since they intervened, and nothing had happened yet.

Fine, it's just a matter of time. They can afford to wait it out. They won't betray their owners just because it takes a few days.

But... it turned out that this didn't last that long.

Just a few minutes later, a bodyguard from the Qi family wearing sunglasses ran up from downstairs.

He hurriedly reported to Qi Xinye, "Miss! There's a man downstairs claiming to be Mo Chi, the head of the Mo family, who wants to come here. Should we let him in?"

"Specifically? Can you confirm it's Mo Chi himself?"

"We haven't confirmed it yet, but the person looked flustered and uneasy."

Qi Xinye thought for a moment and said, "First, find a way to confirm his identity. Only after confirming that it is indeed Mo Chi himself, then transfer more people to bring him over. Go and do it quickly."

Her caution is not wrong.

It's possible that someone impersonated Mo Chi to rescue these two people, which would be very troublesome.

But before the bodyguard could nod and go downstairs again, Yu Zhe's voice rang out.

"Hmm? They've arrived? Ah, Sister Ye, there's no need to investigate anymore. Just let them pass. Don't worry, it's definitely Mo Chi himself; there's no mistake."

"..."

Qi Xinye didn't ask why; she simply admired Xiao Zhe.

There's nothing to ask; if Xiao Zhe is so certain, then it can only be the truth.

So Qi Xinye instructed the bodyguard again, "No need to verify their identities, just bring them over."

"Understood, Miss!"

Upon receiving the order, the bodyguard swiftly jogged downstairs, apparently to fetch someone.

As for Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang, they were just staring at each other in disbelief.

If someone's already downstairs, can it really be considered bluffing?!

No, they had agreed with the family head before they came that if the mission to capture Mo Lingyun failed, they would take the blame and make amends for Mo Chi's crime.

But what's going on with the patriarch suddenly showing up?

No...it might not be true. Maybe it's just Su Yuzhe's scheme.

But soon, the door was opened, and two Qi family bodyguards, flanking the people in from the left and right, completely extinguished Uncle Lin and Uncle Wang's last hope.

"Master, what brings you here!"

This middle-aged man with half-white hair is none other than Mo Chi, the patriarch of the Mo family.

Seeing him appear here, neither of them knew what the point of their previous insistence had been.

But Mo Chi did not answer their questions immediately. Just as the bodyguard had said, he looked around anxiously with a flustered expression.

"Su Yuzhe! Where is Su Yuzhe?!"

He looked around frantically, but couldn't see Su Yuzhe anywhere.

"Don't bother looking, Uncle Mo, I'm right here."

"you...!"

Even with that pleasant voice, Mo Chi didn't know where the person was, and instead became even more anxious.

The moment Mo Lingyun saw Mo Chi appear, she felt an urge to kill him.

But now, after being persuaded by Zixiao and Xiaolizhi, she has calmed down.

We shouldn't cause trouble for Brother Yu Zhe, and people like Mo Chi should be punished by law.

She simply walked a few steps toward Mo Chi with a cold look in her eyes, holding her phone, and then, without saying a word, pointed the phone screen at Mo Chi.

Thus, Yu Zhe could also see Mo Chi's aged and flustered appearance.

Mo Chi was stunned when he saw Mo Lingyun, but he was in no mood to care about that now. What he cared about more was finding Su Yuzhe!
