At 8 p.m., Old Lady Luo and the others ca out of the police service center.
Luo Zitong complained, "These guys are really too much, what do they an by not being able to file a case if soone hasn’t been missing for 24 hours? Is it that troubleso for them to look for soone?"
Luo Xuanran spit out a mouthful, "They’re just a bunch of people who live off free als!"
"Mom, where are we going now?"
Luo Yuantu, seated in a wheelchair, looked blankly at the night outside, his expression filled with confusion.
His wife had run away, the money was gone, and he himself was disabled—life was as tragic as it could get.
Old Lady Luo was also burning with rage inside. She had been astute her whole life and never expected to be played by her daughter-in-law, Chen Guihua.
"There’s sothing wrong with this!"
Old Lady Luo furrowed her brow and said solemnly, "Even if Chen Guihua took the money and ran, she only has a little over 4.8 million on her hands. That amount is not considered a large sum in Jiuzhou, let alone overseas."
"She also has to support a lover; that little money is not enough for her expenses! She must have gone after more money!"
"Mm!"
Having been husband and wife with Chen Guihua for many years, Luo Yuantu agreed deeply with his mother’s words.
Considering Chen Guihua’s usual spending habits, a re four million would only be enough for a few years of squandering. If she went and bought so luxury house or car overseas, it wouldn’t even last a year.
Mother was right, Chen Guihua must have sched to get more money!
It’s just that we haven’t figured out how she did it yet.
After pondering for a while, Old Lady Luo spoke up, "Xuan Ran, bring the car around. We’re going to Platinum Luxe One!"
Luo Xuanran looked startled, "Platinum Luxe One? Isn’t that where Luo Ning and Mo Han live? What are we going there for?"
Old Lady Luo said firmly, "We’re going to confront Yang ifeng!"
"I always feel that Yang ifeng is up to sothing. Think about it, how could she know that Xiao Shuai and purposely give us his information?"
"With Yang ifeng’s hatred for our family, would she tell us like that? She must know so insider information and is deliberately aggravating us!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them looked at each other in disbelief.
But considering that there wasn’t a better place to go at the mont, they all nodded in agreent, "Alright! Let’s go to Platinum Luxe One to confront Yang ifeng!"
...
Platinum Luxe One.
Mo Han was busy fiddling with elixirs in the utility room in the front yard garden.
He had co to an agreent with Chen Fuyuan that he would take care of the integration of Fuyuan Pharmaceutical Factory over the next couple of days, while he himself would be responsible for producing the Yangqi Elixir.
Today, he had so spare ti and he began to work on the Yangqi Elixir as soon as he got ho.
Compared to the Qiankun Elixir, the Yangqi Elixir was much simpler to make. Over twenty types of herbs were dumped into a pressure cooker, and after just over two hours of processing, it was basically done.
"Hm? Mo Han, what are you up to? It slls pretty good," Luo Shanchuan, having nothing better to do, followed the scent and found his way to the garden.
Seeing his father-in-law approaching, Mo Han’s eyes lit up, seeing an opportunity to test the elixir, he chuckled and said, "Dad, this is a recipe given to by Physician Gui Nongsang. He said it can enhance certain functions for n."
"Look, I’ve just produced a few pills. Dad, why don’t you give them a try?"
"Nonsense!"
Luo Shanchuan’s face turned serious, "I’m in perfectly good health, what’s there to enhance?"
"You always fuss over these things!"
Mo Han cunningly backed off, "Oh, okay, then I’ll just give them to soone else."
"Actually, one of my chess buddies ntioned he’s been feeling uncomfortable with his kidneys lately. Since your elixir can strengthen them, I’ll take a few doses back for him to try."
Luo Shanchuan said with a red face, "Don’t look at like that. I definitely won’t be using this thing."
"By the way, are there any side effects to this thing? Not like ’Super Bro One,’ that made people uncomfortable and spaced out after a few doses."
Pah! Taking it for soone else? That’s nonsense!
Seeing the look on his father-in-law’s face, Mo Han knew he was reluctant to admit he wanted it for himself, but he didn’t bother to call him out and said instead, "Dad, don’t worry, this dicine doesn’t have any side effects, it’s quite good."
"Even if you don’t trust , you should trust Physician Gui, right?"
Luo Shanchuan, who trusted Physician Gui Nongsang—who was new to Jiangling City and opened a dical shop—a lot because he was the Taishan Beidou of the Chinese dicine community of the day, believed that there should be no problem if the respected physician said so.
Thud, thud...
Just then, there was a loud knocking at the iron gate.
"It’s almost 9 o’clock, who is knocking?"
Luo Shanchuan grumbled annoyedly, "Mo Han, go open the door and see."
Mo Han nodded and opened the iron gate, only to find Old Lady Luo along with Luo Yuantu and his son standing at the doorway. He furrowed his brows as if he realized sothing but still calmly asked, "What are you here for?"
"Out of the way!"
Seeing Mo Han, Luo Xuanran beca imdiately irritated and shouted at Mo Han, "Bring out Yang ifeng, my grandma wants to ask her so questions!"
Mo Han gave Luo Xuanran a light look and said, "Luo Xuanran, please understand that this is my residence, not the Luo Family Villa. The person who should leave is you, got it?"
Luo Xuanran was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond, but Old Lady Luo, who was more experienced, glanced at Luo Shanchuan beside her and spoke indifferently, "Luo Shanchuan, what now? I can’t even enter your ho?"
Luo Shanchuan, who had an inherent fear of Old Lady Luo, shrank back a bit, tugged at Mo Han’s hand, and gestured for her to co in, "Mom, what are you saying? It’s chilly outside, please co in and we can talk."
"Big brother, Xuan Ran, Zi Tong, you all co in too. Mo Han, go pour so tea..."
