Vol V Chapter 37
The house was in the old lady's name. The old lady should be the one signing the papers and getting the money. What did it have to do with Mo Junbao?
Mo Junbao also reacted after hearing Mo Zihan's words. He did not bother to look at Mo Zihan and quickly turned to the old lady." Mom, I'll accompany you to sign the papers tomorrow, okay?"”
The old lady snorted and ignored him.
Wang Fengying was instantly pleased." I'll sign the papers with Mom tomorrow. No matter how big or small it is, we have to buy a three-bedroom apartment with simple renovations. I'll save the rest of the money for Zihan's school expenses." Mom, you don't object, do you?"
The old lady nodded, stood up, and walked into the house. These two days, the old lady had gotten used to returning to Mo Zihan's room directly. Compared to Mo Junbao and his wife's room, the old lady preferred to enjoy the peace and quiet in this small room.
Mo Zihan followed her back to her room and closed the door.
That night, the Mo family had another sleepless night. Mo Junbao started to make a fuss and quarreled with Wang Fengying until dawn.
Mo Zihan rubbed his eyebrows. His mother, Wang Fengying, had to go to work early in the morning every day. Mo Junbao was not sensible at all. He only cared about his words. If he was unhappy, no one in the family could be happy.
Early the next morning, Wang Fengying called her coworkers to ask for half a day off before taking the old lady to the demolition office. Mo Zihan was afraid that Mo Junbao would ruin things, so he followed him out.
The signing process was done very quickly. After all the procedures were completed, the group returned home to pack their things.
Mo Junyi called early in the morning to say that he had booked rooms for the four of them at a nearby hotel. He told them not to worry about anything else and to focus on finding a house in the next few days.
Mo Junbao was very happy and immediately went home to pack his things. In fact, there was nothing much to pack at home. It was just some broken quilts and old furniture. Under the constant opposition of Wang Fengying and Mo Zihan, these things were disposed of cheaply.
They were busy until the afternoon before they finally shipped everything to the hotel. Actually, there was nothing else, just some clothes and four chairs.
Then there was Mo Zihan's chest of gold. She had wrapped this chest of gold in her clothes and carried it out. She had been holding it in her arms all this time, and no one had noticed it.
As soon as they left the Pingfang District, they began to demolish the houses. The rumbling sound of the bulldozers made everyone except Mo Zihan sigh.
The hotel was a good four-star hotel in Lan City. It was built in the bustling commercial center and had 16 floors. The exterior was made of tempered glass, which looked dazzling under the sunlight.
Mo Junbao had never stayed in such a high-end hotel before. From the moment he entered the hotel, his chin was raised and his handbag was between his legs. Those who did not know better would think that some big boss had arrived. Even when he walked into the elevator, he still commented on the hotel's decor. To put it bluntly, he was pretending to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.
There were two double rooms, one for Mo Zihan and the old lady, and one for Mo Junbao and Wang Fengying.
After entering the room, Mo Zihan placed the gold under the bed. Anyway, the old lady stayed in the room every day to watch, so there wouldn't be any other problems.
At night, the family had to eat a simple bite at the snack bar outside. Before going out, Mo Zihan hung a do not disturb sign in front of the room door. After all, the gold could not be carried with him, so he had to take the risk and leave it under the bed in the room.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into Huang Bonan in the lobby as soon as she walked out of the elevator.
Beside Huang Bonan was a tall, handsome, and well-defined young man. The two of them were smiling and chatting as they walked toward the hotel lobby on the first floor.
At this moment, Huang Bonan noticed Mo Zihan walking out of the elevator. He stopped in his tracks in surprise." Zihan, right? Why are you here?"”
Mo Junbao did not expect to meet Huang Bonan here, and Huang Bonan even stopped to talk to his daughter. He was so excited that he could not speak.
Huang Bonan was someone that Mo Junbao respected very much. Usually, when his buddies were drinking and chatting in a small restaurant, they would often mention Boss Huang. Now that he had the opportunity to chat with him, Mo Junbao would not let go of it.
"Aiya, Mr. Huang!" Mo Junbao imitated the style of a Hong Kong businessman and reached out his hands to shake hands with him." Mr. Huang, I didn't expect to meet you again. It's fate!"”
Huang Bonan furrowed his brows subtly. Since the other party was Mo Junyi's brother, he reached out and shook his hand." Hello, Mr. Mo."”
Mo Junbao quickly let go of Huang Bonan's hand in a reserved manner." Mr. Huang, are you going to eat?" How about this, I'll be the host. Mr. Huang, will you do me the honor?”
Huang Bonan wanted to refuse, but he turned to the tall young man beside him and said," Chief Bai, this is Junyi's brother. That young lady is the capable person I mentioned on the way here. What do you think…"
The tall young man beside him revealed a sinister smile and said in a clear voice," Since you are Mister Huang's friend, we will listen to your arrangements.”
Huang Bonan laughed and said," Let's have a meal together then. It just so happens that that little guy makes me curious.”
When Mo Junbao heard the words " Chief Bai," he was so scared that he stood at the side. Wang Fengying nervously held her daughter's hand. Never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that this young man in his thirties was actually Chief Bai, who had just been transferred from the province.
Although Lan City was only a county-level city, all the officials were in their fifties.
Mo Junbao's family followed Huang Bonan to a private room called Qinxin Garden in a daze. Then, Huang Bonan ordered a table full of luxurious dishes and asked the waiter for a bottle of Maotai. Mo Junbao couldn't help but feel in his pocket.
He had forgotten that he had no money in his pocket. During this period of time, with the chairs and the relocation, he had long subconsciously treated himself as a nouveau riche, but he had forgotten that he did not have a share in any of these things.
However, on second thought, since Huang Bonan invited Chief Bai to a banquet, he couldn't possibly ask him to foot the bill. Only then did he feel at ease.
Mo Zihan sat next to her mother, and the old lady sat next to her. In fact, the guests at this table were very strange. One was a young and promising mayor of the city, one was a local tycoon who dominated the passenger transportation industry, and the other few were a family of old and young who lived in slums every day, worrying about their livelihood.
Mo Zihan didn't know what Huang Bonan was planning. Why did he drag them into this dinner? It was obvious that this Chief Bai had something to discuss with him. This dinner shouldn't have included their family.
Many things seemed to form an outline when they were linked together. However, she did not know if Mo Junyi was really working for Chief Bai, what was his relationship with Huang Bonan, and who was the person who assassinated Mo Junyi last time. What was his motive? What kind of role did Huang Bonan play in this?
"Chief Bai, come, come, eat. Hehe, right, I mentioned earlier that this is Third Brother Mo's little niece. In the previous incident, it was all thanks to her that Third Brother Mo's life was saved!”Huang Bonan looked at Mo Zihan with malicious intent and said with a smile.
