Chapter 174 - The Fault Is Mine (3)
Indeed, what Lu Qingfeng said was right. There were other ways to cause trouble for Mo Yuchen. He still hadn't ascended as the CEO of Golden Star Entertainment yet, so there was still a chance to prevent his ascension.
Mo Yuchen had recently joined Golden Star Entertainment, and it would take some time before he became the company's CEO.
A smile found its way through the mask of Su Xiaofei's uncertainty. She was unaware of the captivating picture she made in front of Lu Qingfeng when she smiled.
"Xiao Feng, you are really a genius! How come I didn't consider that?" Su Xiaofei exclaimed.
Mo Yuchen wasn't the only one who was being considered to succeed the Mo family business. In fact, he had been stuck in a fierce battle with his younger half-brother, Mo Yuan to succeed the company.
They shared the same father, but were born from different mothers. After Mo Yuchen's mother died when he was merely six years old, his father remarried and a year later, Mo Yuan was born to his second wife.
However, for some reason, even before Su Xiaofei met Mo Yuan, the man had died in a mysterious car accident. It happened five years before she married Mo Yuchen. With his death, the company naturally ended up in Mo Yuchen's hands.
Even when she had become Madam Mo, no one from the Mo family mentioned what truly happened to Mo Yuan. It was as if his name and identity was already forgotten by the family. Su Xiaofei had also never met Mo Yuan's mother and only knew her father-in-law.
Su Xiaofei's thoughts halted at that, as it finally dawned to her that Mo Yuan might be still alive around this time. Five years… If Mo Yuan was still alive, preventing his death would not give Mo Yuchen a headache in the future, she could even ask Mo Yuan for compensation for saving his life.
Ah, wouldn't it be like hitting two birds with one stone? Now, she only needed to make sure that Mo Yuan was alive, and then she would need to figure out the details of his 'death' later based on what she could remember.
She lifted her head and gripped Lu Qingfeng's arm, her eyes glinting with mischief. Lu Qingfeng briefly thought that she was prettiest when she was like this.
"Xiao Feng, do you think you can find out if Mo Yuan is back in the country?" She asked her childhood friend.
Lu Qingfeng inwardly smiled. He knew that Su Xiaofei would be able to follow his way of thinking. He only needed to drop a clue and she was able to understand it easily. The death of Mo Yuan in their past life was related to Mo Yuchen, of course. But surprisingly, the mastermind was the matriarch of the Mo family and not Mo Yuchen himself.
The old matriarch doted on Mo Yuchen as she was the one who raised him after his mother died and his father remarried, building another family. For some unknown reason, the old woman didn't approve of her new daughter-in-law. Since she had deemed Mo Yuan as an obstacle to Mo Yuchen's future, she wanted to eliminate him.
'Even a ferocious tiger won't eat its own cubs, but the old woman killed her own kin, her other grandson to secure Mo Yuchen's future.' Lu Qingfeng thought. He didn't want Su Xiaofei to get involved with that kind of family ever again.
The relationship between the Old Matriarch Mo and Su Xiaofei was also not good. The old woman occasionally troubled Su Xiaofei and treated her with a cold shoulder. For the Mo family, Su Xiaofei was nothing but a pawn for their family to prosper. When Mo Yuchen started ignoring her, Su Xiaofei felt more alone than ever as she had no one to rely on.
So how could Lu Qingfeng let the Mo family off the hook? It wasn't enough for him to destroy Mo Yuchen alone. Since the Mo family was so proud of themselves, Lu Qingfeng wouldn't spare any of them.
After Su Xiaofei's death, he exerted all efforts to destroy the Mo family, not giving them any chance to recover at all. Even now, Lu Qingfeng didn't regret what he had done one bit, and would have done the same thing all over again if the Mo family dared to hurt Su Xiaofei again.
"I can ask Nine to check it for us, but you would need to give him a day or two to investigate. We wouldn't want the Mo family to know that we are snooping into their private affairs." Lu Qingfeng suggested.
"Yes, yes, of course. I don't mind waiting at all. Also, if you don't mind, tell Nine to snoop on what Mo Yuchen is up to these days and find anything related to his younger brother." She told Xiao Feng.
'Heh, Mo Yuchen, since you fucked up my life before, see if you would like me ruining yours!'
"Okay, but you have to promise me not to meet Mo Yuan in public. I would have to be your accomplice in this scheme of yours."
Su Xiaofei pulled away from him and considered her options. She knew that meeting Mo Yuan would be dangerous. What if she and Lu Qingfeng were caught by the Mo family? If Mo Yuan's death wasn't really a simple accident, then she and Lu Qingfeng shouldn't act recklessly this time.
Lu Qingfeng patiently waited for her to make a decision. He had to make Su Xiaofei aware of the kind of danger she would face if she dared to use Mo Yuan against Mo Yuchen. As far as he could remember, Mo Yuan was also not a simple person that anyone could simply trifle with. He might be just as cunning and vicious as his older brother.
"Fine. As long as you keep whatever we're up to from Mama. I don't want her to worry about these things.." Su Xiaofei conceded.
