Chapter 846: Chapter 848: Mu Hong Taken Hostage by Pirates

“Hello, how are you? I’m Mu Shanshan, Lin Fei’s… family. May I ask if Mr. Vulture needs something?”

Mr. Bald, Vulture!

The person calling Lin Fei in the middle of the night was none other than the head of Hell’s Judgement Organization’s Central Continent base, the brother of Butcher—Vulture!

After Mu Shanshan, this ice-cold CEO, asked for Mr. Bald, the expression of Vulture on the other end of the phone was undoubtedly quite remarkable.

In Vulture’s many years as a mercenary, it was the first time someone called him Mr. Bald!

Of course, this wasn’t the main reason for Vulture’s silence.

The main reason for Vulture’s momentary silence on the other end of the phone was not hearing the expected voice of Lin Fei.

“Hello? Are you listening?”

After waiting a while and not hearing a response from Vulture, Mu Shanshan, anxious to leave, couldn’t help but ask Vulture on the other end of the phone again.

Mu Shanshan’s second question was undoubtedly a form of reminder to the silent Vulture.

After the woman’s words fell, Vulture on the other end of the phone asked, “Sister-in-law?”

“You, know me?”

“The boss has no siblings. You claim to be family with the boss, besides sister-in-law, I can’t think of anyone else. Moreover, I am somewhat aware of sister-in-law’s personal information. Sister-in-law, are you currently with the boss?”

After hearing Vulture’s explanation, Mu Shanshan, feeling relieved, glanced towards the bathroom, hesitated for a moment, and then replied, “I am indeed with Lin Fei. However, Lin Fei is not available to take the call right now. If there’s something, you can tell me. Of course, if it’s a personal matter between you two, and it’s inconvenient to tell me, you can call later or I can have him call you back after he’s done.”

“Originally, I intended to keep this matter from you temporarily, Sister-in-law. But since the boss is unavailable now, I must tell you first. However, before I tell you, I hope you’re mentally prepared.”

“Is it about me?”

“Strictly speaking, yes.”

“Good news or bad news?”

“For you, Sister-in-law, it’s definitely not good news. Otherwise, you might want to find the boss for me. I am worried that you might not be able to handle it after hearing me out.”

“No need, since it concerns me, I have the right to know. Besides, Lin Fei really can’t take the phone right now. Go ahead, I can handle it.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll say it. To my knowledge, Sister-in-law’s father should be Mu Hong, am I right?”

“Yes, my dad is indeed… What’s happened to my dad?!”

Mu Shanshan, who was merely slightly tense in expression before, instantly tightened up upon discerning the implication in Vulture’s words. Her eyes, like clear water, were filled with tension and anxiety. Inside, she was thrown into turmoil, nearly losing composure.

If there’s anyone in this world who could instantly affect Mu Shanshan, this iceberg CEO’s mind besides Lin Fei and Aunt Lan.

It would only be Mu Hong!

As Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO’s biological father, Mu Hong could be said to be her only close relative apart from Lin Fei.

He is, in this world, the person closest by blood to Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO.

Blood is thicker than water!

Though Mu Hong as a father could be said to be quite unqualified, especially when he forcibly tried to marry off Mu Shanshan to Lin Fei, which once led to her strong opposition and a crisis of kinship and trust between father and daughter.

However, this inborn kinship by blood clearly couldn’t be severed.

Especially for someone like Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, who grew up in a single-parent family after losing her mother young.

In her childhood, to some extent, Mu Hong could be said to be Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO’s only reliance during growth.

Indispensable!

Just like how she came to cherish Lin Fei upon realizing her feelings for him, Mu Hong, to Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, is like Lin Fei, an indispensable person in her life.

Although Mu Hong was often away from home for many years, in Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO’s heart, there was always a seat solely for Mu Hong, her biological father.

This point obviously won’t change no matter when or what happens.

Although Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, usually due to her naturally cold disposition, didn’t show much emotion, upon suddenly hearing that her biological father, Mu Hong, might be in trouble or disaster.

The woman couldn’t help but be nervous.

“Hurry and tell me what’s happened to my dad?!” This is only due to them talking on the phone; if it was face to face, Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, would probably have already grabbed Vulture by the collar to ask.

Concern causes confusion, at this moment, Mu Shanshan’s heart was already in chaos.

Fortunately, Vulture could more or less sense this. Thus, Vulture didn’t hesitate much, after Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO’s words fell.

Vulture, directly and solemnly responded to Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, “I have received news that the cruise ship your father was on was hijacked by pirates an hour ago. The current specific situation is unclear, but Sister-in-law, please remain calm. I have already—”

Bam!

Before Vulture could finish speaking, Lin Fei’s phone, which was being held in the hand of Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, suddenly slid from her hand to the floor.

It was completely unconscious, as for what Vulture wanted to say next, Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, had no intention of listening further.

The cruise ship that Mu Hong was on was hijacked by pirates; just this sentence was enough to completely unsettle Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO.

Bam!

After Lin Fei’s phone unconsciously slipped from her hand, Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO herself, also sank to the floor in a daze.

Tears fell instantly!

Although prior to Vulture’s reminder, Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, was mentally prepared enough, no matter how rich her imagination or how strong her psychological resilience.

She clearly couldn’t remain calm given that the cruise ship her father, Mu Hong, was on was hijacked by pirates.

Impossible to stay calm!

After all, Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, unlike Lin Fei and Vulture, and others who have emerged from the battlefield of blood and fire as top international mercenaries.

She is just a woman, though wealthy, without the strength to even truss a chicken.

Being hijacked by pirates is something that for Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, should only be heard or seen in dramas and movies.

Now, it had truly happened to her biological father, Mu Hong.

For Mu Shanshan, the iceberg CEO, her world, unique to her, in that instant, half collapsed…
