Chapter 140 The Bewitching Vixen

Han Mo looked at Bai Han before him, frowning slightly. "What exactly do you want to do?"

Bai Han said lightly, "I want many things, and I will get them back one by one. But, Brother, do you know? Even if Xi'er were to live again, you could never be with her."

As soon as he said this, Han Mo's slightly shallow pupils widened considerably.

At this moment, Bai Han lowered his voice, bringing his face, as handsome as a prince, closer to Han Mo. In an extremely gentle voice, he uttered words like a curse: "In this life and all future lives, it will never happen!"

Han Mo could no longer endure it. He stood up directly from the bed, his movements swift, and grabbed the collar of Bai Han's shirt. "What do you want to do to her?"

Bai Han smiled faintly. "I've only just awakened. What do you think I can do?"

Han Mo frowned, his brows filled with the sharpness of wind blades and frost. "Did you see something!"

Han Luo's ability was precognition. He could know what was going to happen in the future.

Just then, Tong Yao rushed in, her face full of panic. "Doctor Han, Brother Bai Han, what are you two doing? What's going on?"

After speaking, she looked at Han Mo, wanting him to let go of Bai Han. But with just that glance, she felt a sense of fear.

All along, she had thought of Han Mo as a gentle and deeply affectionate gentleman. But his eyes now were nothing like they used to be, cold and piercing, making her unable to stop feeling afraid.

It was a bit like... Bai Xi returning after six years.

"Who is this woman? I've never seen her before. Is she a new notable figure in Shang Yang?"

"A new notable figure from Shang Yang."

"She's alone. Let's go talk to her."

"Are you crazy? Look at what she's wearing. That's Moonflower Silk. There are only two bolts of this fabric in all of Shang Yang. People either have rich fathers or rich husbands. What do you have besides a small mine? What will you use to win her favor? Your face?"

"What's wrong with my face? I think I'm quite handsome!"

"Heh..."

She glanced casually at the evening gown she was wearing and raised her eyebrows slightly.

She hadn't expected the gown Han Rui had given her to be so lavish.

She casually scanned the surroundings. Seeing that Han Rui hadn't arrived yet, she quietly walked to a secluded spot, found a seat, and silently picked up the wine in front of her.

When Xuan Feng delivered the invitation letter to Ming Shou, he also brought the latest information on the Han family. However, this more detailed information did not contain the information she wanted.

Han Rui's movements were very simple. He had never left Hua Guo, nor had he interacted with any suspicious foreign individuals. He had never sought anyone out or investigated the matter of the Dark Department.

He managed pharmaceuticals and was dedicated to pharmaceutical research. Although his nature was unrestrained, frequenting various circles, he was committed to taking risks himself to cultivate medical talent, researching new drugs to replace outdated ones. He also used the Han family's influence to make commonly used medications as affordable as possible for ordinary people.

Although this person was a swindler to her, his existence, along with his research center and factories, was quite meaningful to the ordinary people of Shang Yang, and even to other places where the Han family's medical services were involved.

Therefore, helping him restore his reputation was not something outside her principles.

As for this evening gown, she would consider it her thank you for helping him twice.

While Bai Xi was drinking, a young woman in a golden long dress walked over from not far away.

The woman was beautiful, with slightly heavy makeup. The golden long dress clung to her body, outlining her delicate curves in a captivating way.

She walked step by step towards Bai Xi, tilting her head slightly. She looked down at Bai Xi with pride, in a manner that seemed to be sizing her up. Finally, her vibrant tomato-red lips moved slightly: "Brother Han Rui's taste is truly poor. How could he fall for a seductive cheap trick like you!"
