Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'

Su Mo furrowed his brows deeper upon hearing the female employee's words; he was now certain something was amiss.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll be leaving work now."

The female employee noticed Su Mo standing silently for a while and asked.

"No, nothing. Thank you."

Su Mo replied gratefully.

After the female employee left, Su Mo hesitated for a moment before turning to leave the factory.

Much later, Su Mo arrived at the Lin Family's estate, where the butler greeted him respectfully.

"Mr. Su Mo, you're back."

"Hmm, where's Lin Xiaoyu?"

Su Mo asked indifferently.

"Miss Xiaoyu is out on some business, she's not home."

The butler replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Su Mo's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he asked nonchalantly.

"Where did she go? What business is she attending to?"

"I don't know about that. After all, as servants, we should not ask too many questions."

"Why does the house feel exceptionally deserted?"

Su Mo glanced around, seeing only the servants and security personnel, no one else.

"Recently, the family has been dealing with a lot of intricate matters, and the master is out on a business discussion. Therefore, the house seems a bit deserted. Mr. Su Mo, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll prepare dinner for you right away."

The butler answered calmly, without any facial change.

"No need, I just came back to grab something quickly, and once I have it, I'll be off. Don't worry about me, go attend to your duties."

Su Mo said as he headed towards Qian Chengxue's room.

...

Not long after, Su Mo picked up the Heavenly Sin Blade and returned to Chenxi Group.

He headed straight for Zhao Han's office.

"Hello, Director Su Mo."

"Director Su Mo, you're still not off work yet."

...

Several on-duty employees whom he passed greeted him.

Su Mo didn't respond to them but quickened his pace.

The on-duty employees looked puzzled, whispering among themselves.

"Why does Director Su Mo seem a little off-state?"

"I feel it too, maybe he's not in a good mood."

...

After a short moment, Su Mo arrived at Zhao Han's office door. The door was open, and the lights inside were on.

He went in.

Seeing Su Mo return, Zhao Han was also a bit surprised, then broke into a bright smile.

"Such a good day, are you planning to stay late with me?"

"Zhao Han, be honest with me, where did Qian Chengxue go?"

Su Mo directly questioned.

Zhao Han paused slightly, then with a puzzled expression responded, "Sister Xue went with her father to discuss business. Is there any issue? Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"For a business discussion, does she need to bring so many people? Almost all the company's senior executives?"

"Not really, the company's been quite busy lately."

"I went to the factory, and the company hasn't had any business recently, so what's busy about it? I also visited the Lin Family, and there's nothing going on there either. Be honest with me, what's going on?"

Su Mo stared at Zhao Han, questioned.

"It's nothing really."

Zhao Han grew increasingly embarrassed, replied stiffly.

"No need to continue hiding, it's certainly something you can't conceal. From the moment I returned to the company, I've had a sense of something being off, you kept watching me."

"There's really nothing, you're overthinking."

"I don't want to argue with you. Even if you don't tell me, I can find out by investigating."

Su Mo laid his cards on the table with Zhao Han.

"Hey, do you really want to know?"

Zhao Han responded with a resigned look and sighed deeply.

"Isn't that a given?"

Su Mo replied without patience.

"Sister Xue followed her father to deliver supplies to the front line."

Zhao Han, unable to hide it any longer, decided to be upfront.

Hearing this, Su Mo's eyelid twitched sharply, feeling somewhat angry, he said: "Such a big matter and you concealed it from me, Zhao Han are you dumb? How dangerous is transporting goods to the front line, aren't you aware? Especially right now during the Negative Energy Pollution upheaval period."

"Of course I know, but I've got no choice."

Zhao Han responded with a helpless smile.

"No point talking about this. How long since Qian Chengxue left, and which route did they take?"

Su Mo took a deep breath to calm his anger, he understood blaming Zhao Han was futile now.

"What are you planning? Sister Xue specially instructed me to keep an eye on you, not letting you act recklessly, especially given your condition, which is very risky."

Zhao Han didn't answer Su Mo's question but instead tried to persuade him.

"I know my limits, just tell me the details."

Su Mo wasn't listening.

"Stop asking, I truly don't know which route they took, it's confidential."

"Then I'll figure it out myself."

"Wait, take this."

Zhao Han sighed deeply, seemingly having anticipated the situation, she pulled out an envelope from her pocket.

"Another letter?"

Su Mo paused slightly and took it.

"Sister Xue left it for you, look at it yourself."

Zhao Han employed her final bargaining chip.

Su Mo opened the letter, the familiar elegant handwriting caught his eye, it was indeed Qian Chengxue's note, she seemed to have prepared for this beforehand.

"Su Mo, by the time you read this letter, you should know I've gone to the front line to deliver supplies. I understand this action is risky, but someone has to do it. I know you're definitely upset about being kept in the dark, please don't blame Zhao Han, I instructed her myself. I'm well aware of your temperament; once you find out, you won't rest easy and will definitely come after me. Your condition is known better to me than anyone, you can't afford to exert yourself. Listen to me, stay at the company, I don't want anything happening to you, because to me, you're the most important thing. Rest assured, nothing will happen to me here, I'll take care of my safety, don't worry too much, peacefully stay at the company, manage it well. If you comply, once I return safely, I'll agree to one of your requests, anything at all....."

After a long pause, Su Mo quietly folded the letter away. His head lowered slightly, his expression filled with melancholy.

Seeing this, Zhao Han sighed softly and said to Su Mo, "Don't feel bad, Sister Xue is doing this for your own good, just stay put."

"I understand, I'm tired, going to rest."

Su Mo responded in a low mood.

"Okay."

Zhao Han sympathized deeply.

Then Su Mo turned and walked toward the company exit.

Watching Su Mo's departing figure, Zhao Han felt a complex emotion and sighed helplessly.

She looked at Su Mo like this, feeling bad inside too. But there's nothing she could do, it's for his own good.

...

Before long, once Su Mo sluggishly exited the company doors, he glanced back to ensure Zhao Han hadn't followed.

Su Mo immediately transformed, hurriedly leaving.

Kidding, how could he not chase after his wife?
