After Mo Yan finished her words, she lifted her dress and left.
Su Hai was left frozen on the spot, along with the guests who were still hungry for more. Mo Lian angrily walked down from the stage, her entire body trembling in anger. She had wanted to humiliate Mo Yan and had also set up a trap. In the end, Mo Yan did not even think about joining in the unveiling segment.
So angry that her cheeks were swollen, Mo Lian called out to the man sitting next to her, “I don’t care. You have to help me take care of Mo Yan.”
The man was in a difficult position. “Miss, it’s not appropriate, is it? Those present tonight are all business partners of the Mo family. If they were to find out, the Mo family would probably have a hard time doing business in the future. Moreover, she has been eyed by Su Hai. We are also following up on several projects with the Su family. This is not the time to go against Su Hai.”
“I don’t care.” Mo Lian knew the pros and cons of her plan, but she still refused to let it go.
The man could only nod and retreat. He lamented that Mo Lian was too willful. If he continued to indulge her, one day, she would bring great trouble to the Mo family.
Mo Yan had just walked out of the venue when a hand grabbed her wrist. That hand was extraordinarily strong. Without any explanation, it dragged her into a safe passage at the side. As the light in the passage was broken, it was dark and long. The man’s entire face was hidden in the darkness. It was impossible to see his face clearly.
Moreover, he was wearing a mask, his eyes staring dangerously at Mo Yan.
He looked like a guest at a party, but all the men had already taken off their masks. There was no reason for him to still be wearing a mask.
Mo Yan bit her lip while the man squeezed her wrist even harder.
“Luo Tao?” Mo Yan subconsciously opened her mouth, but she quickly denied the answer. Although the man’s figure was very similar to Luo Tao’s, both tall and big, the feeling he gave people was completely different. Moreover, she had circled around the charity gala several times that day, but she still couldn’t find Luo Tao.
Moreover, Luo Tao was usually very gentle to her. He wouldn’t have kept squeezing her wrist so hard even if it was to bring her to a safe passage. No matter how painfully she scrunched her face, he had no intention of letting go.
“You are not him,” Mo Yan added.
“Ha.” The man laughed. “Of course I am not him. And I am not afraid of you finding out that there is no Luo Tao in this world. He has only been using a fake name to deceive you and is with you to hide his true identity. He is the eldest young scion of the Huo family, Huo Zhen.”
“What did you say?” Mo Yan interrupted without clearly catching what the man had said in the second half. She was so shocked that she gulped.
Of course, she knew about the eldest young master of the Huo family, Huo Zhen. He was a genius who dominated the business world. His vision and methods were very sharp. None of those old foxes in the business world was a match for him. In just a few short years, he had created an incomparable business empire. His name was frequently published in newspapers and magazines.
“No, you’re lying to me. He can’t be Luo Tao.” Mo Yan shook her head.
Luo Tao was proficient in stock trading and knew the situation of every industry like the back of his hand, and she had never lost money when she bought stocks with him. However, she had never thought that the person next to her was actually the unattainable Huo Zhen.
“I’m not lying to you.” The man smiled contemptuously and sized Mo Yan up from head to toe. She was very beautiful, especially with her exquisite and beautiful outfit today. He did not expect that the prideful legendary young master of the Huo family would give in to the temptation of beautiful women.
He held Mo Yan’s hand even harder. “You will see him again soon. When the time comes, you can ask him as much as you want and ask him what his relationship with the Huo family is.”
With that, he searched his body with his other hand and found a thin needle. He then stabbed it into Mo Yan’s neck and pushed it in.
Mo Yan struggled with all her strength, but there was no strength in her body at all. A few seconds later, she completely lost consciousness. She closed her eyes and collapsed to the ground.
The man smiled and tugged at the corner of his mouth. He simply lifted her up and strode through the safe passage to the outside. A black van stopped outside to receive them. The man carried Mo Yan and quickly got into the van. After the door closed with a bang, the van quickly drove away from the scene.
Everything happened without anyone knowing.
Meanwhile, at the charity gala, Su Hai searched every corner but could not find Mo Yan. He walked back and forth with no intention of giving up and called his assistant over, “I don’t care what methods you use. You have to find out the information about the woman who danced with me tonight. I want to know who she is and where she is. Bring her before me.”
