After the explosion scene was canceled, Elder Nangong's expression was naturally not good. After all, this was a rare opportunity that he had been waiting for.
Who would have thought, he was just one step away from killing Mo Ting. But, a phone call from Tangning completely destroyed everything he had planned.
Most importantly, the explosives that he had set up were a huge safety hazard. After all, he had no intention of leaving Mo Ting with a chance of survival.
But, now that filming had been canceled, he had to clear out all the traps that he had set up. Otherwise, he would definitely alert the enemy.
In reality, this wasn't because of Tangning's intuition, but because of her cautiousness.
The explosion scene was such a big scene. If someone tampered with it, who could guarantee her husband's safety?
But, because Qiao Man was about to film the next scene, she instructed the miscellaneous items team to clear out the set. So, before Elder Nangong appeared, she had to clear out the other traps first. But, unexpectedly, she triggered the switch that Elder Nangong had set up.
All that was heard was a loud bang …
The entire film studio was shaken by the loud bang.
Afterwards, there was a strong explosion of fire and debris … Everyone was still in shock. But, as they watched the terrifying scene, a thought suddenly popped into their heads.
An explosion!
The entire set was filled with screams, arguments and questions. Afterwards, Mo Ting immediately called Lu Che to report in and called the police.
In an instant, the explosion at the film studio spread like wildfire. Online, all sorts of rumors and guesses began to appear.
How many people died? What caused the explosion? Now, it was all just a rumor.
But, only Mo Ting and a few others knew the real cause of the explosion.
After the police arrived, they quickly cleaned up the scene and verified whether there were any casualties. Luckily, even though the trap had been triggered, the person that triggered it jumped into a nearby pit in time, so he did not suffer any serious injuries. As for the staff closest to him, he only suffered superficial injuries.
How lucky …
No one was seriously injured.
"Where's the explosives technician? Where's the person in charge of the explosion? Did he start working without any identification? " The police questioned the staff on set. At this time, everyone realized that Elder Nangong was nowhere to be found.
At this time, he received a phone call from Nangong Quan, "I've thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out. But now, I finally know who to watch out for: the explosives technician."
"Your phone call was late. Didn't you see the news?" Mo Ting asked.
Nangong Quan furrowed his brows and gestured for his assistant to hand him his phone. At this time, he finally found out from the news that an explosion had occurred at Hai Rui's film studio.
Not long after, Tangning arrived on set. As soon as she saw Mo Ting, she stretched out her arms and hugged him, "Thank god you're fine..."
Mo Ting hugged Tangning tightly. If it wasn't for Tangning's phone call, he would have been...
"I'm fine. I'm fine. Don't worry."
"First, help the police clean up the scene. Everything else can be discussed at home," Tangning regained her composure and comforted the crew.
Seeing this, Mo Ting asked Lu Che to contact Fang Yu and ask him to give him a detailed report on the incident.
In reality, Mo Ting wanted Fang Yu to keep an eye out for clues. In this aspect, Lu Che wasn't as meticulous as Fang Yu.
Afterwards, Hai Rui publicly announced that there were no casualties and that the police were currently investigating the cause of the explosion. Hai Rui would also give the public an answer as soon as possible.
...
Of course, this incident was blown out of proportion and almost cost Mo Ting his life.
As soon as Elder Mo heard about it, he immediately returned to Hyatt Regency.
"That old bastard is extremely cunning. It's normal that you couldn't find anything. 20 years ago, we spent a lot of manpower and resources to send him to prison. Who would have thought, as soon as he was released, he would try to take my grandson's life."
"Luckily, Xiao Ning reacted quickly this time..."
After returning home, Mo Ting did not say a word as he sat on the sofa. As he looked at the old man, his expression turned cold.
"If you had cleaned up the mess back then, you wouldn't be in such a state."
"Who would have thought that he would survive until he was released?" Elder Mo scoffed.
"After this incident, his identity has already been exposed. So, it's impossible for him to use a fake identity to get close to us again. This is actually a good thing," Mo Ting stood up from the sofa. "Now that he's staked everything on the Mo Family, I'm afraid there's going to be another bloodbath when he returns to the Nangong Family."
Elder Mo humphed without saying a word.
This was the first time he had been scolded by a junior.
"Let's wait for Fang Yu's report to come out and see what the situation is like..." Tangning comforted as she patted the back of her husband's hand. "Fortunately, no one got hurt. This is the best outcome."
"From now on, when he's in the open, he won't have as many opportunities to strike again."
Mo Ting did not say a word. His expression was dark as he waited for Elder Mo to leave before he held onto Tangning's hand and led her into the bathroom. The couple then lay in the bathtub.
Seeing him close his eyes, Tangning couldn't help but ask, "Are you tired?"
"Nangong Quan and I are the same. We don't want to get involved in this mess. We simply want to live a stable life. No matter how old the grudges are, I don't want you and our child to get involved."
"But we've already encountered it. What can we do?" "You can't expect grandfather to shoulder the responsibility on his own … besides, he didn't do anything wrong in the past."
"Don't force me to take action." Mo Ting said calmly as he opened his eyes and looked at Tangning. But, Tangning could see a deep look in his eyes that she had never seen before. "Right now, I don't care if I'm threatened or injured. But, if it's you..."
"I will definitely send him to hell …"
"Your life is in danger today. I already want him to go to hell." "Ting, don't always think of me as a weak person. With you around, I have nothing to fear." "Don't think of me as a weak person.
"We're already used to the disputes in the industry. Isn't it just revenge? Isn't that common?"
"Let's see how Nangong Quan is dealt with first. That old bastard can only return to the Nangong Family for now!"
Indeed …
Because the old man had failed, he had no choice but to give up his identity as an explosives expert, and the police had nowhere to find him.
Therefore, he could only return to the Nangong family by leaving the prison.
But, was Nangong Quan happy?
Not at all …
It wasn't because he didn't want to see his grandfather, but because his grandfather had just placed a bomb in someone else's territory. What was even more frightening was that his grandfather didn't think what he did was wrong. He didn't respect life at all!
