Thinking of Mo Cheng, the conversation between Luo Tao and Mo Cheng also came to Mo Yan’s mind. What exactly did they say that made Mo Cheng change so much?
Mo Yan had asked about it a few times, but Luo Tao never said anything.
In fact, Luo Tao did not know what to say. Mo Cheng was very smart, but he had been blindfolded. When someone was willing to listen and give him confidence, he could walk out on his own.
The two of them strolled along the street. Mo Yan leaned her head against Luo Tao’s arm.
“I really hope that I can continue walking like this with you.” Mo Yan sighed.
From that night onwards, Mo Yan had an inexplicable sense of uneasiness. It was as if Luo Tao would leave her at any moment.
Luo Tao looked at Mo Yan and smiled lightly. “You will.”
From the beginning of their life together, it was like a vacation. There was no distrust or scheming. There was only the daily grind to grapple with.
The night light elongated their shadows, and as they moved, they got closer and closer.
…
In the Mo family’s villa.
Mo Lian rushed back from country M. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mo Dong sitting on the sofa. Her heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to turn around and leave, but Mo Dong stopped her.
“For what are you leaving?” Mo Dong said icily.
Mo Lian reluctantly walked to Mo Dong’s side. “Dad.”
Seeing Mo Dong glaring at her, Mo Lian hurriedly apologized, “Dad! I was wrong about what had happened before. Dad, don’t be angry.”
“What was wrong?” Mo Dong continued to ask.
“I shouldn’t have targeted Mo Yan in Mo Yan’s company and embarrassed Dad,” Mo Lian lowered her head.
“What else!”
Mo Lian didn’t know what else she had done wrong, so she lowered her head and kept quiet.
“Also, you can do a lot of things to mess with her, but you have to choose the stupidest one. Not only Hong Jing, even the employees of our own company don’t like you,” Mo Dong said with a snort.
Actually, what made him most dissatisfied with Mo Lian was that Mo Lian had started thinking about his company at such a young age. He hadn’t even retired yet, but she had already spread the word that she would inherit the company in the future.
In the end, Mo Dong was a person who did not love anyone. He only loved his company and his money. Once someone coveted his things, he could not bear it, let alone a daughter like this who did not have a brain, and had embarrassed him in front of other companies.
“Dad! I’m sorry, I won’t do it again in the future. I know my mistake.”
Mo Lian dared to be arrogant towards others, but she did not dare to say anything to her father.
Firstly, it was because she and her mother had to rely on her father for a living. Secondly, her father would really throw punches. If her father wanted to hit her, even her mother would not be able to stop him. Hence, she did not dare to go head-to-head with her father.
Mo Dong glanced at her coldly and said, “Enough! Let’s forget about this matter. In the future, think before you act.”
Mo Lian nodded obediently.
“In a few days, Mo Real Estate will hold a charity banquet. Clean yourself up and attend it.”
“Okay! I got it, Dad!”
Hearing Mo Dong mention the banquet, Mo Lian’s expression remain unchanged, but her heart was filled with joy.
When she received the call asking her to return, she heard her mother wanted her to hurry home, saying that they were going to hold a charity banquet.
Mo Lian liked this kind of occasion the most. Once the Mo family held a banquet, she would be the center of attention. Regardless of whether it was someone more powerful than the Mo family, they would all have to show respect to her.
Mo Dong looked at Mo Lian and said frostily, “For this banquet, invite Mo Yan as well.”
“What?”
Mo Lian shrieked a little, but when she saw Mo Dong’s gloomy expression, she had no choice but to shut her mouth, not daring to speak further
“Mo Lian, look at you now. You still want to inherit the company? I might as well give it to Mo Yan.”
Mo Lian looked at Mo Dong in disbelief. Her father had actually said that he wanted to give the company to Mo Yan?
“Father! Mo Yan and her mother have done so many things in the past! How can you say that!”
Seeing Mo Lian’s agitation, Mo Dong’s expression became even more frigid.
“Mo Lian, let me tell you, with your current state, not only will you not inherit the company, you won’t even be qualified to be a junior supervisor.”
Mo Dong suddenly thought of Mo Yan in the video. If he had not broken off with mother and daughter, Mo Yan would probably be much better than Mo Lian. At least there would be someone to keep Mo Lian in check, so Mo Lian would not develop into such a brainless character, with a habit of doing things solely based on her preferences.
“Go and invite Mo Yan. If you can’t, you don’t have to attend the banquet as well.”
“Dad!”
Mo Lian growled at Mo Dong’s back, but Mo Dong ignored her and went straight upstairs to his room.
