Chapter 1033: Insomnia
Mo Tianhan received the news on his way home. It made him extremely anxious.
Not only was he worried about his missing son, but he was also concerned about the elderly and his wife at home.
When the car finally returned to the old mansion, Mo Tianhan alighted in a hurry before the vehicle had even come to a stop. He didn’t care about his image and his footsteps were swift, almost breaking into a jog.
When he saw his family, his heart skipped a beat.
“Dad, Boyuan, he…”
Old Master Mo waved his hand, but it was obvious that his expression wasn’t very good.
“We know everything,” stated Old Master Mo.
Mo Tianhan had originally planned to keep it a secret. Alas, all of them knew, including little Ningning who was sitting upright at the corner of the sofa!
The word ‘missing’ was not something that the little boy could completely understand.
After all, he had never experienced something like this before, nor had he ever lost anyone important.
However, after seeing the various reactions of his great-grandfather, grandma, and his mother, he had cleverly guessed that something big must have happened to his father, something very bad!
Thinking about his father getting into a mishap, Ningning felt very uncomfortable and wanted to cry.
However, he held it in.
He kept encouraging himself in his heart: “Don’t cry, don’t cry. Don’t cry in front of Mom, Grandma, and Great-Grandfather! Dad had said that Ningning was a man and had to protect everyone in the family! So, don’t cry!”
Mo Tianhan’s legs felt a little weak when he stepped into the house, especially when he saw his wife’s swollen eyes from crying and his elderly father who seemed to have aged overnight.
“I’ve already asked Ah Tie and the others to rush over,” he said.
When it came to international issues, he did not dare to send too many people over.
Old Master Mo clenched his fists tightly.
“Things have already come to this point. Your focus should now be on the Mo Group,” he chided. “There’s still the old man over there!”
n.o.body was stupid enough to not realize that there surely was a problem if a living person suddenly disappeared!
It was very likely that the perpetrator had long planned this.
“I know,” replied Mo Tianhan. “In that case, I will return to the company first!”
It was crucial to keep an eye on things at the company. Who knew if there would be someone who would use the opportunity to take advantage of a loophole or something like that?
In the duration of Mo Tianhan’s return and subsequent departure, he did not even have the time to console his wife.
Right now, the company still needed to make some adjustments as soon as possible. There wasn’t much time left.
Once the news of Mo Boyuan’s disappearance was exposed, the stock market would be in turmoil. At such a time, the most taboo thing was for people to be in a state of panic.
Old Master Mo simply said these words, “Pay attention to your safety!”
A mult.i.tude of meanings was contained in this short phrase.
An hour pa.s.sed.
Two hours.
Five.
Eight.
Ten hours later…
From the moment they received the news in the morning until the night before they went to bed, the calls did not stop. However, not a single call was what everyone was looking forward to.
Every time the call was connected with antic.i.p.ation, it would always end in disappointment.
Old Master Mo was not young after all, and his body could not hold on much longer. However, he still had to sit in the hall and wait for the call!
In the end, it was only after Jiang Tingxu spoke out that the stubborn old man was persuaded to go back to his room to rest. Nevertheless, everyone in the Mo family could not sleep that night.
Still, it was better to let the old man lie down and rest than to sit and wait!
At midnight, Jiang Tingxu finally convinced Mrs. Mo to go back to her room as well.
As for little Ningning, he had already fallen into a fitful sleep in his mother’s arms. Each time there was movement, he would wake up instantly.
