Mo Jingteng’s face was gloomy. He couldn’t believe that Wen Ran, a woman who had just lost her parents, dared to speak to him like this. However, what she said was reasonable, so he couldn’t respond.

That night, his Zixuan indeed slept with another woman.

He was silent for a while, somewhat annoyed that he couldn’t rebut Wen Ran’s statement. Then, finally, he said bitterly, “You better not forget this day. If you dare to make things worse for my two sons, I definitely won’t let you or your father’s company off the hook!”

The implication was that if he didn’t want the Wen Corporation to survive, it would be useless even if Xiuchen was on her side.

Ignoring the livid Mo Jingteng, Mo Xiuchen walked over, took Wen Ran’s hand, and led her towards the dining room. He then called Auntie Zhang, “Auntie Zhang, bring out the breakfast!”

“Coming, Young Master!”

Auntie Zhang’s voice came from the kitchen. Wen Ran turned towards the kitchen, then struggled to withdraw her hand. “I’ll help Auntie Zhang.”

“You don’t need to do those things.”

Mo Xiuchen’s tone was firm. He dragged her into the dining room, made her sit down, and pulled the chair beside him. Wen Ran gave in.


Meanwhile, Mo Jingteng was still standing in the living room. He was getting angrier at being rudely dismissed by his son.

His eyes were seething, and he couldn’t believe that Xiuchen was holding Wen Ran’s hand.

What surprised him the most was that there was no disgust or disdain on Mo Xiuchen’s face. He seemed to really like this woman. This was something he had never seen in the 18 years since Mo Xiuchen was kidnapped back then.

Auntie Zhang quickly brought out the breakfast. Although she saw Mo Jingteng standing in the living room, she didn’t greet him. Only Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran had breakfast prepared.

Although Wen Ran didn’t look back, she knew that Mo Jingteng hadn’t left the living room.

She tried to catch Mo Xiuchen’s gaze and wanted to ask him if he would call his father to have breakfast. However, when she saw his grim expression, she thought it best not to bring it up.

Mo Xiuchen was about to eat breakfast when his phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and muttered annoyingly, “Hello?” A soft voice came from the other end of the phone, “Young Master Mo, I found the girl with a mole on her chin.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiuchen’s eyes widened. His demeanor softened a bit, “Where is she now?”

“She works in a hotel under the MS Corporation. Do you want to see her now?”

“Yes. I’ll head over now.”

Mo Xiuchen hung up and quickly stood up from his chair and said aloofly, “You have breakfast, then let Xiao Liu take you to work.”

Wen Ran replied, “You’re leaving now? You haven’t touched your food.”

“Yes. I have something else to attend to.”


Mo Xiuchen immediately left the dining room.

“…”

Upon seeing him walk away, Wen Ran frowned.

***

There was a regular meeting every Tuesday.

As soon as Wen Ran arrived at the office, the secretary, Sister Li, came in with a stack of leave of absence slips. “Ranran, these people have gone way overboard,” she began. “Despite knowing that there’s a regular meeting today, they still asked for leaves of absence altogether.”

“Who asked for the leaves of absence?” Wen Ran asked. She was surprised upon hearing that.

Sister Li handed her the request for leave and reported angrily, “The first workshop supervisor of the Production Department, three team leaders of other departments, the deputy supervisor of the Quality Inspection Department, two quality inspectors, the supervisor of the Purchasing Department, and the Sales Department’s…”

Zhou Mingfu bribed all of them. Although Miss Wen solved the factory’s funding problem yesterday, those people weren’t satisfied with Miss Wen because they were founding members of the company.

Back when Chairman Wen and Madam Wen were alive, they didn’t treat any one of them badly.
