Chapter 1881: Chapter 1880: The Son of Your Enemy
Jiang Hui’s whole body was trembling slightly.
Under Mo Xiuchen’s sharp gaze, she couldn’t help but answer.
“Mo General, this is what Qi Jianlin said, please don’t get angry after hearing it?”
Before answering, she could only desperately plead that Mo Xiuchen wouldn’t implicate her.
“Speak.”
Just a simple word.
Jiang Hui was so frightened by the cold aura Mo Xiuchen emitted that she blurted out.
“Qi Jianlin said Bai Xiaoxiao is not President Bai’s daughter.”
“Nonsense.”
Mo Xiuchen’s voice suddenly rose several decibels, causing Jiang Hui to tremble again, with her wide eyes filled with fear.
She even felt cold sweat break out on her forehead but didn’t dare to raise her hand to wipe it.
Mo Xiuchen took out his phone while coldly asking, “Have you already told Meng Ke?”
“I…”
Jiang Hui only glanced at Mo Xiuchen’s eyes before immediately lowering her head again.
Mo Xiuchen’s hand holding the phone tightened, it seemed he was a step too late.
If Meng Ke knows about the events that year, he should call Bai Xiaoxiao immediately; his eyes coldly scanned over Jiang Hui, dialing Luo Haofeng’s number.
The phone was answered after a single ring, and Luo Haofeng’s urgent voice came through, “Xiuchen, how is it?”
Mo Xiuchen closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “You need to rush home now, Qi Jianlin has already told Jiang Hui about the events of that year, and Meng Ke knows as well. He might call Bai Xiaoxiao.”
As he finished speaking, there was a sound on the phone.
If Mo Xiuchen wasn’t mistaken, that would be the sound of Luo Haofeng collapsing into the sofa.
His handsome brows furrowed deeply, and his facial features became increasingly stern.
Luo Haofeng’s current mood was something he could understand, just like back then, when he was afraid Ranran would find out those truths; no matter how much he tried to hide it.
However, there’s no such thing as an eternal secret in this world.
“Ah Feng, we have to prepare for the worst now. If Bai Xiaoxiao knows, how will you respond? How will you explain?”
Silence.
There was an unbearable silence on the phone.
No one knew how much time passed before Luo Haofeng’s painful voice came through, “I understand.”
He didn’t dare imagine what the outcome would be if Xiaoxiao knew those things.
Back then, Luo Haofeng had been coerced by his mother and Qi Meiling, which led him to G City to inquire about those old matters with Qiao Xiuyun.
After meeting Qiao Xiuyun, he agreed to marry Qi Meiling.
Mo Xiuchen still remembered when Luo Haofeng announced his marriage to Qi Meiling, the expression he wore was one of agonizing repression.
After a car accident, Qi Meiling became a vegetable, and only then did Luo Haofeng’s marriage to her come to an end.
After hanging up, Mo Xiuchen looked up again at Jiang Hui, whose face was ashen.
A hint of fear flickered in Jiang Hui’s eyes as she trembled and said, “Mo General, I didn’t mean to tell Meng Ke, he threatened me, saying if I didn’t tell him the outcome, he would find someone to ruin me.”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, looking pitiful and pathetic.
But in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, there wasn’t a trace of sympathy; his gaze was as cold as ice.
“Where is Meng Ke?”
Jiang Hui shook her head, “I really don’t know where he is.”
“What’s the relationship between your godfather and Meng Ke?”
“I…”
Jiang Hui kept trembling, whether from not knowing or not daring to speak, it was unclear.
“You don’t have to say, the police already have evidence of your godfather’s crimes and know he’s colluding with Meng Ke. If Meng Ke threatened you, would he destroy you if you didn’t do as he said?”
“…”
Mo Xiuchen’s lips curled into a cold smile, “You think Meng Ke can destroy you, and we can’t do anything to you, is that it?”
“No, it’s not that, Mo General, I only know a little about my godfather’s affairs.”
Back then, Jiang Hui was terrified of Meng Ke, but now, she suddenly felt that Mo Xiuchen was even more frightening than Meng Ke.
Meng Ke could find someone to destroy her with despicable means, but Mo Xiuchen had countless ways to make her life or death unbearable.
She had approached Mo Xiuchen but couldn’t retreat unscathed. All she could do was comply with him.
“What matter?”
“I accidentally overheard my godfather on the phone; he plans to leave the country, and I feel he knows where Meng Ke is.”
Planning to flee?
That’s certainly the modus operandi for those criminals.
Meng Ke disappeared before the police obtained evidence, didn’t he?
“Besides your godfather, who else knows where Meng Ke is?”
Mo Xiuchen coldly asked Jiang Hui, word by word.
Jiang Hui pondered for a moment, “Meng Ke seemed to have paid someone to take Bai Xiaoxiao out of the country; there’s a woman named Xu Wanqi who loves him deeply, maybe she knows something.”

Villa
When the phone rang, Bai Xiaoxiao and Tian Ruoyi were in the kitchen discussing what to cook for dinner.
“Xiaoxiao, you go answer the phone first.”
Tian Ruoyi smiled slightly at Bai Xiaoxiao, starting to wash the vegetables.
Bai Xiaoxiao said okay, took out her phone, and answered the call.
“Xiaoxiao, it’s me.”
The voice in her ear carried a mix of familiarity, strangeness, and coldness.
As if coming from a distant place, Bai Xiaoxiao’s face changed instantly, blurting out, “Meng Ke?”
Behind her, Tian Ruoyi, who heard the name Meng Ke while washing vegetables, turned to look at her.
“Xiaoxiao, thank you for remembering me. I don’t have much time to call you, so I’ll get straight to the point.”
“Why are you calling me?”
Bai Xiaoxiao’s voice suddenly turned hard, as Meng Ke not only had her mother kidnapped but also tricked her into going abroad.
“Of course, it’s something important to tell you.”
Meng Ke chuckled on the other end, but when another call came in, Bai Xiaoxiao frowned and said, “I’m busy, not in the mood to chit-chat with you.”
Meng Ke wouldn’t tell her where he was, and Bai Xiaoxiao wasn’t interested in hearing anything he had to say, attempting to hang up the phone.
However, before she could, Meng Ke mysteriously said, “Xiaoxiao, don’t you want to know why your mother holds such hatred for Luo Haofeng’s mother?”
Bai Xiaoxiao scoffed, “These matters don’t concern you, Meng Ke. Don’t forget you’re a wanted criminal now, speaking to me for another minute only raises your risk of exposure.”
As he finished his sentence, Meng Ke instead laughed loudly on the other end.
This kind of laughter carried a chilling edge.
Bai Xiaoxiao found it grating, her brow furrowing even tighter.
“Xiaoxiao, I know you’ve been deceived by Luo Haofeng, but I must tell you this truth. I can’t let you be deceived by your enemy’s son any longer.”
“I have no enemy.”
“You do have an enemy; your enemy is Luo Haofeng’s mother, Wu Jingfang. Your biological father is not your current father, but one of the men Wu Jingfang brought, who **** your mother back then.”
Bai Xiaoxiao felt like she was struck by lightning, her mind suddenly blank!
