7: Waiting for an earthquake

Lin Wan blinked, tilting her head expectantly as she looked at him.

But after looking and looking, he still had that handsome face, calm as if the sky was falling, and he was even curiously looking around.

Finally, he said one sentence.

"This place is really nice."

Good, good, good, worthy of someone who has seen the world.

Little did they know, even though Shen Mo Chi had seen the world, he was actually extremely shocked inside.

The legendary spatial dimension actually exists!

Lin Wan rolled her eyes and pulled him along for a tour.

Shen Mo Chi roughly understood this treasure trove of a space and seriously cautioned her:

"Wanwan, from now on, you cannot tell anyone about having the space!"

"I know! It's fine, I only told you, I only trust you."

Shen Mo Chi could no longer remain serious; those two short sentences coaxed him so much that the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Right? Who would casually expose such a good thing in front of others? It was only because of him that Wanwan finally recognized how good he was.

...

Lin Wan pulled him and said mysteriously.

"Shen Mo Chi, I'm telling you, I had a dream. The end of the world will arrive in a month, so I plan to do something big now. Tomorrow, there will be an earthquake in Japan..."

"You want to do a zero-yuan shoplifting spree?"

"Clever!"

"Okay, I'll go with you. Although you have the space, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."

"Is that okay? Don't you still have a company?"

Lin Wan said this, but her eyes were full of anticipation.

Shen Mo Chi played along with a smile.

"The Apocalypse is coming, what does having a company even matter? After so many years of constant infighting, I'm tired. Now that you have the space, I have to stick close to you, hoping the wealthy Wanwan can take me along to get rich."

...

Where was the aloof CEO? He was acting playfully, flirting with whom?

"Fine, then I'll reluctantly agree. After all, possessing hundreds of billions in supplies in the future, it would be a bit lonely at the top for one person, ha ha ha..."

Shen Mo Chi's eyes curved, and the corners of his lips lifted into a smile, so handsome it hurt to look at.

"Okay, it's all yours. Our family is rich. We'll listen to you."

He felt that all his good luck in this life must have been used up by this moment. It was worth it, completely worth it!

The two seemed to have endless things to say. With their misunderstandings resolved, they felt every second was as sweet as honey.

So the two of them only slept for two hours in the end.

The next morning, Shen Mo Chi prepared to return to finish up his work and needed to take Lin Wan with him.

Lin Wan naturally thought the same. After washing up, the driver was already waiting for them at the hotel entrance.

Getting into the car, the driver greeted them respectfully.

"Hello, Miss Lin Wan."

The familiar voice startled Lin Wan. She looked up and saw it was Uncle Wang!

She froze instantly.

Everything became clear. Why did Uncle Wang always appear to help her out whenever she was in trouble? Why, in the Apocalypse, when food and drink should have been a problem, did she end up living in a clean single room in the base and eating relatively normal food...

Unlike the vast majority who had to drink sewage, eat grass roots, and even human flesh...

Back then, Uncle Wang had said he had connections in that base...

Uncle Wang had also taught her various skills, self-defense, and survival techniques, which was why she had always regarded Uncle Wang as her benefactor, viewing him as a father!

It turned out Uncle Wang was sent by Shen Mo Chi. How much had he done for her!

"Uncle Wang..."

Wang Peihua was stunned, looking at her in confusion. Although he had known her for a long time, this should have been the first time she met him. Perhaps it was Mo Chi who mentioned it.

Wang Peihua smiled and nodded at her.

Shen Mo Chi was also slightly confused. He took her hand and asked softly:

"You know Uncle Wang? My driver was ill these past few days and resting, so I asked Uncle Wang to drive. Have you met before?"

Lin Wan snapped back to her senses, forcing back the tears, and smiled:

"Yes, I think I saw him from afar once before. I heard you call him that. Let's go quickly."

"Mm."

"Wanwan, Uncle Wang grew up with me. He is my bodyguard, my butler, and also like family. He is the person I trust most by my side."

Lin Wan nodded, deeply moved once again.

A person like this should be extremely important, but in her previous life, he always thought she despised him because of his background, so he never appeared before her.

Instead, he had his most trusted aide take care of her and arranged for her to be in the base he worked so hard to establish, allowing her to survive relatively safely in the cruel Apocalypse for five years...

In the end, he even risked his own life to exchange for her rebirth.

Thinking of the super virus in his body, a cold light flashed in Lin Wan's eyes. That was given to him by Shen Mo Chi's father in the fifth year of the Apocalypse before he died, an attempt to take Shen Mo Chi down with him!

This time, she would not let Shen Mo Chi suffer any harm!

"Mo Chi, thank you..."

Shen Mo Chi stroked her hair.

"What silly things are you saying."

After handling their affairs, Shen Mo Chi told everyone to return to the country first.

Uncle Wang also went back to keep an eye on everything in the group and was also tasked with selling the house at Jinghua No. 1 and some other properties.

When the end came, all of that would turn into ruins. Of course, he unconditionally trusted Lin Wan, and the recent weather was indeed unusual.

Lin Wan had already received the money from selling the house today, totaling over thirty million.

With that, she now had over a hundred million in hand.

She also gave her share certificates to Uncle Wang, entrusting him to help her sell the shares.

She also handed over the company's top-secret documents to him; he knew what to do.

Uncle Wang would naturally handle it with care. He had always seen Mo Chu's feelings for Lin Wan, and now that they were finally together, he was only filled with happiness and relief. He was old and couldn't accompany him forever.

After they left, the two went directly to the port in Japan, then entered the space to rest, quietly awaiting the arrival of the earthquake.

Lin Wan spoke about the events that would happen in the Apocalypse while Shen Mo Chi held her, listening intently to the dream...

...

Capital City.

The Lin Family.

The atmosphere in the entire living room was heavy.

Lin Zhiyuan, his clothes wrinkled, angrily hung up the phone.

"A bunch of trash! It's been two days, and they still haven't found anything. Now they even suspect us of staging it ourselves! Humph, am I a lunatic? So many things, so many cars, how could they just vanish into thin air!"

Xu Lan and Lin Ran had dark circles under their eyes, and Lin Ran's eyes were red and swollen.

"There isn't a single penny of cash left in the house now, and all our things are gone. We have no leads, what are we going to do!"

Xu Lan thought it over and over, feeling something was wrong.

"Zhiyuan, can't we still contact Wanwan? Aunt Zhang investigated countless times, but there wasn't a single clue. Why don't we ask her? Maybe she has some leads?"

Lin Zhiyuan's face was cold.

"She blocked all of us. She doesn't answer unknown numbers, we can't reach her at all! I suspect she changed her number!"

"Then let's go to Jinghua No. 1 to find her! She should still have quite a bit of money on her!"

Although they still had money in their bank cards, enough for basic necessities, for them, it wasn't much. They were used to a lavish life and couldn't possibly be frugal!

The family's assets, besides what was lost, were various shops and real estate. The company hadn't been doing well these past two years, and there were many places money was needed. The lost items were worth tens of millions! Including the cars, it was nearly two hundred million!

The more Lin Zhiyuan thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He also wanted to take his anger out on Lin Wan and demand back the forty percent share.

"Let's go! Let's go find Lin Wan! She's becoming more and more outrageous!"

Lin Ran, Xu Lan, and Lin Zhiyuan went to Jinghua No. 1, but when they got upstairs, they found the door wide open, and people were moving things out.

"What are you doing? This is our house!"

Lin Ran was irritable and shouted sharply.

"Your house? This house was just bought by us. The owner is Lin Wan. The contract is right here! Are you Lin Wan?"

"What? Sold!"

Lin Zhiyuan and the other two were completely stunned, but with the contract clearly written in black and white, what could they do!

Who told them the owner of this house was Lin Wan!

At this moment, Lin Zhiyuan's malice reached its peak; he wished he could beat Lin Wan to death immediately!

Lin Ran's face was also livid with anger.

"Dad, Lin Wan is too lawless. She knew I wanted to live in this house, but she'd rather sell it to outsiders than let me live in it. This was the best chance to get close to Shen Mo Chi!"

Xu Lan also complained from the side.

"Yes, I don't know what's wrong with Lin Wan. First, she injured Lin Ze and Lin Xu, and now she secretly sold the house. Such a big thing happened at home, and she can't be contacted, nor does she offer any help. This house is worth a lot of money!"

"Speaking of which, why did she sell this house... Heavens, Zhiyuan, those things lost at home, they weren't related to Lin Wan, were they!"

Lin Ran's eyes were full of viciousness, instigating:

"It must be that she holds a grudge. Dad, she definitely walked past the surveillance cameras empty-handed on purpose to clear her suspicion. In fact, she is the mole! She must have hired professional thieves! Creating a diversion, she is taking revenge on our Lin family for her mother!"

Lin Ran's words struck a chord with Lin Zhiyuan. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Wasn't Lin Wan causing trouble at home every day precisely because she felt wronged for Tang Wanyun!

"I'm going to the police station right now to explain the situation and investigate her whereabouts!"

Just then, Lin Xu called.

"Dad, it's bad. Hurry to the company. Lin Wan sold her shares! Also, our company was reported for tax evasion, and the evidence has been submitted! Now they are going to seal the company! My brother is trying to manage it!"

"What!"

Lin Zhiyuan roared, no longer caring about calling the police. He directly ordered the driver to turn around and head to the company.
