Gu Qingyao smacked his hand away so she could continue cooking.


Mo Beihan simply reached out and covered the pot to let it simmer a while. He turned her around in her arms and lowered his head to give her a hard kiss!

Meanwhile, Bai Fei was aghast to discover that Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing had vanished!


“How could they vanish? Weren’t you supposed to be watching them?”


His men did not reply. They also did not know how they vanished.


“We… we were watching them. But… they suddenly disappeared.”


Bai Fei asked angrily, “Didn’t you look for them?”


“We did, but we found no trace of them. It’s as if they vanished into thin air.”


No trace of them?


Bai Fei finally understood that someone had been plotting against the Bai family. He hurried off to report the matter to his grandfather.


“Grandfather, we’ve fallen into a trap. Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing have vanished and my men can find no trace of them. These two women could not possibly have shaken off my men.”


Especially since they have vanished without a trace such that even his men could not find them. An ordinary person could not have achieved this.


Old Master Bai was shocked!


“Vanished? How can two adults vanish?”


Bai Fei lowered his head. “The mastermind was probably afraid of being found out, so he secretly sent them away.”


Old Master Bai’s expression was very ugly. “Who? Who could be so bold as to plot against our Bai family?”


Bai Fei was silent for a long while, then replied, “I think that it’s most probably Mo Beihan, the Gu family and the Qiao family.”


Old Master Bai looked at him.


Bai Fei said, “Gu Yunshen knew that Zhang Xiaohui swapped the children. He said he did not know who Zhang Xiaohui swapped the child with, but that might not be true. Zhang Xiaohui is a very stupid woman. She remembered our family, so Gu Yunshen might also have seen us then.


“If Gu Yunshen knew, then the Qiao and Gu families certainly knew about it too. It’s no secret in the capital that Youran fancied Mo Beihan, although he was engaged to Gu Qingyao in their hometown long ago. The Gu and the Qiao families want to marry Gu Qingyao off to Mo Beihan so that she can be the next matriarch of the Mo family. It’s not surprising for them to plot against us.”


When he put it that way, it did seem that they had a strong motive.


“But…” Old Master Bai frowned. “The greater the motive, the more obvious the suspect and that increases the probability that they were framed. Although Mo Beihan has the support of the other branch of the Mo family, that branch is not much use to him. It’s just that Mo Yunhao is too useless, so they prefer Mo Beihan.


“That fellow has been studying overseas for three years and has only just returned. He can’t be so capable that he can plot against us without leaving a single clue.


“As for the Gu family, if they wanted to plot against us, shouldn’t they have done it a few years ago? Gu Qingyao then was studying overseas, and her engagement to Mo Beihan was not yet public. If they had gotten rid of Youran then, we would not even suspect the Gu family.”


Bai Fei frowned. It was true. To destroy Bai Youran at this critical juncture, render Mo Yunhao useless, and also trap the Bai family was just too noticeable and conspicuous. They would obviously guess that Mo Beihan, the Gu family and the Qiao family had worked together to do this.


The Qiao family had just returned to China. They were rich, but they did not have much influence here. They were just starting up. They did not have the ability to plot against the Bai family.


Bai Fei said, “In that case, then… is someone deliberately inducing us to suspect the Mo, Qiao and Gu families? Mo Beihan has married Gu Qingyao, and they are now allied. Can the mastermind be trying to create enmity between us and the Gu, Qiao and Qin Families so that we will fight each other while they reap the benefits?”
