Chapter 395: Caught
“It’s that man pulling strings.” Chen Guiren said, “The Tangs are not that influential enough to get their hands on something like the video of our base.”
“How did the man get it?”
“A mole in our underworld?” Liu Hai laughed. “I must say, he has guts to betray the Liu family.”
Jinhai calmly said, “He will be caught in no time.”
But Liang Zou had other worries too.
“Nana…” he glanced at Jinhai, and at the mention of her, he slightly stiffened.
“This has complicated the things between you two.” He sighed.
Liang Zou might be angry about how Jinhai made Nana pregnant to marry her, but no way in hell was he against him for what he did to Suyin.
As a father, he was furious to learn that his daughter was at risk of getting raped. That, too, twice! How could he bear it?
So it didn’t bother him to see what and how Suyin suffered. For him, she deserved it. But Nana or all the women in their families were a different case.
They didn’t openly come out with the discussion yet. But inwardly, all men didn’t feel what Jinhai did was wrong, and all women agreed with Nana that Jinhai was simply inhumane.
Even if Liang Xiao Dan was Nana’s mother, she was of the same opinion whose daughter was the victim.
Jinhai said after a long time. “Father-in-law. I am taking Nana back with me to the Liu villa.”
It wasn’t a request. It wasn’t to ask any permission. Jinhai simply stated it.
Liang Zou stared at him hard. At this point, he also understood his thoughts. “And you really think that Nana is going to agree?”
“I will talk to her once she wakes up. She would agree.”
Liang Zou didn’t know from where he was getting the confidence.
Huo Shen said, “That man behind the scenes…he must be that mysterious CEO of the Moon Corps.”
Jianyu clenched his fingers into a fist. “Once I get my hands on him…”
Serena’s pale face flashed in front of his eyes. The way she helplessly lay on the floor in pain, crying for their baby’s life and her face swollen with the palm prints made him feel as if somebody was squeezing the life out of him.
The already frozen temperature dropped a few more degrees.

In his luxurious villa, Pei Yuan couldn’t help but sweat in stress.
“Fools!” he cursed.
He took out Nana’s photo and gently caressed his hand on it. “Nana. I am so sorry. I-I was careless. Will you forgive me? But don’t worry. They will suffer for hurting you. I am so sorry…I am so sorry…”
He pressed her photo on his chest and sobbed. “You are hurt. I didn’t know that they would come after you…Please, please forgive me…”
Pei Yuan had the urge to rush to the hospital to meet his love, but he knew he couldn’t do it. He had no right as an acquaintance, and by now, the four family’s guards would have tightly secured the place, not allowing anyone from outside to enter.
He punched a fist on the wall until his knuckles started to bleed.
“My fault…all my fault…”
He was also anxious about the families getting on the trail of the Tangs. He clearly understood that they would never let go of them. And now four influential families were after them.
Naturally, he had tightened the security around the Tangs. But he still got anxious.
“Bastards! They will ruin my plans! At no cost, I would let it happen!”
—
But contrary to Pei Yuan’s thoughts, the guards of all the four families barged into the place where Tang Ning and Tang Feng were kept.
Assistant Xin and Assistant Fan teamed up to crack down their location. They were more worried about the Asuras after their lives who had coldly ordered them to find the Tangs in an hour, or the consequences would be dire. They united as kindred spirits.
Pei Yuan’s guards immediately informed him about the intrusion.
“What!?”
Just as he feared, they caught the Tangs. It was impossible to stay hidden from them.
But right now, protecting his own identity was more important.
“Don’t fight with them. Just get out of there. Don’t let them catch even a single man of ours!”
He threw the phone on frustration.
“Damn it! Those fools ruined everything!”
He took a deep breath.
“No, calm down. Calm down. Breathe. Those fools won’t say anything about me.”
If they still hoped for Pei Yuan to save them, they wouldn’t utter a word about him.

Jinhai was watching over his sons, who were finally sleeping in peace. Nian was coughing a bit in his sleep, and Jinhai’s aura turned dark once again.
If not for what happened in the banquet, Nian wouldn’t have to cry and scream and suffer sore throat. He saw how painful it was for Nian as he coughed and how his brows tightened.
His phone buzzed. It was Xin.
“Sir, we have caught Tang Ning and Tang Feng. We have already taken them to our base. But the guards of that mysterious man who were keeping an eye on them when we barged in, fled from the spot. They didn’t put up any fight with our guards and ran away.”
Jinhai narrowed his eyes.
“What about the mole?”
Xin sweated. “Sir, he has escaped. We ransacked his house, but it was empty. His family is also nowhere. We are already tracing his location.”
Jinhai sinisterly chuckled. “Find out his family. He would come automatically out of his hiding. After all…”
Jinhai lowered his gaze and stared at the sleeping twins who were clutching his finger.
“…everybody loves their family. If he doesn’t want me to hurt his wife and his sweet little daughter, then he would have to come out.” Jinhai said without much emotion.
“Yes, sir.”
He hung up and looked towards the ceiling in a blank daze.
Now the tension in between his brows eased up a bit to know that the culprits were caught. He would now take his own sweet time in showing what real torture is.
