Translator: 549690339
Qin Mu’s eyes darkened slightly.
Looking at Wen Ran, his handsome brow furrowed: “Wen Ran, even if you don’t believe in my character, you should believe in Mo Xiuchen!”
Wen Ran was stunned for a moment, emotion welling up in her watery eyes.
Qin Mu’s lips pressed lightly: “I told them to wait for Mo Xiuchen to make a decision.”
In his nonchalant statement, he glossed over the heated mocking of shareholders in the meeting room and the process of he and Luo Haofeng forcibly suppressing them.
The soft warmth returned to Wen Ran’s heart, extinguishing her previous disappointment. A smile touched her eyes: “Qin Mu, thank you.”
She understood deep down that it must have taken Mo Jingteng’s personal intervention and their effort to get them with Mo Xiuchen’s return as a decision.
It was precisely because she understood the difficulties involved that she did not entertain hopes earlier.
Qin Mu smiled faintly, reaching out his hand, “Where’s the recording pen?”
Without hesitation, Wen Ran drew out the recording pen and handed it to him: “I have not listened to what Yang Xinfa gave me, but seeing how angry the chairman was, I guess that the content must involve him.”
Qin Mu took the recording pen but didn’t immediately listen to it. Instead, he stared at it coldly.
“Aren’t you going to listen to what’s in it?”
Seeing Qin Mu lost in thought, staring at the recording pen, Wen Ran felt slightly anxious.
Qin Mu clasped the pen in his palm, and calmly said: “No rush, let’s wait for Xiuchen to return and listen together. The recorder is not safe with you. The thing Uncle Mo most wants right now is this recording pen.”
Half past four in the afternoon
At G City International Airport, Wen Ran, accompanied by Gu Kai and protected by Qing Yang and Qing Feng, was waiting outside the security checkpoint for Mo Xiuchen to come out.
As soon as her eyes fell on the tall, handsome figure emerging from the crowd, her eyes immediately brightened.
Their eyes met in mid-air; across the crowd and through the air, she clearly saw the deep feelings and longing in his eyes.
“Ranran!”
Mo Xiuchen stepped out of the security check and strode towards Wen Ran and Gu Kai. Calling her name softly, filled with longing, his deep gaze set on her face, making it seem as if no one else existed around them.
Wen Ran looked into his loving gaze, her eyes warming unconsciously, and she reached out to hold his warm, sturdy hand.
“Xiuchen, you shouldn’t only have eyes for Ranran. We and Qing Yang and Qing Feng are here too.”
Gu Kai jokingly broke the intimate atmosphere between them, fearing that if he didn’t interrupt, Mo Xiuchen would pull Wen Ran into his arms and kiss her in front of everyone at the airport.
This was something Mo Xiuchen was likely to do.
Mo Xiuchen finally took his eyes off Wen Ran, looked at Gu Kai, returned a smile at his teasing gaze, held Wen Ran’s hand tightly and gently said, “Let’s go home first.”
“Not home, but the company. Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng are waiting for you at the company.”
Wen Ran corrected him.
“I will send you home first, then go to the company.” Mo Xiuchen did not forget, he simply did not want to bring her to the company. Just as he finished speaking, a group of reporters rushed in from the entrance.
“Mo General is there!”
Someone spotted Mo Xiuchen in the crowd and shouted. All the reporters started running towards them.
Mo Xiuchen frowned, and immediately pulled Wen Ran into his arms. The hand that had been holding hers now moved to her waist, drawing her into his embrace.
Gu Kai also quickly moved to Wen Ran’s other side, with Qing Yang and Qing Feng blocking in front of them.
“Mo General, did you come back specifically to deal with the project accident?”
“Mo General, what are you planning to do with this accident? Solve it with money, or investigate the cause…”
“Mo General, it’s been exposed online that substandard building materials were used in the Commercial Trade Building project. Is it true?”
Countless questions were asked at once, and flashbulbs were constantly flashing.
Mo Xiuchen held Wen Ran tightly. His brows slightly creased, his expression cold and staring sharply, intimidating the reporters to keep their distance.
“As you have all seen, I have just got off the plane. We’ll convene a press conference tomorrow. Any questions you have, please ask them at the press conference.”
Mo Xiuchen’s voice was neither high nor low, but his tone was an irresistible mix of high position and kingly majesty.
After he finished speaking, Qing Yang and Qing Feng chimed in, “You all heard Mo General’s words, please step aside!”
The reporters, despite their reluctance, opened a path, watching as Mo Xiuchen led Wen Ran out of the airport.
Once inside the car, Wen Ran remembered what Mo Xiuchen had said earlier and whispered, “Xiuchen, I’m not going home, I want to go to the company with you.”
Mo Xiuchen’s brow furrowed, and just as he was about to refuse Wen Ran, Gu Kai leisurely advised, “Ranran, it’s best not to go. Seeing you will only make Uncle Mo grind his teeth with anger. It will make things difficult for Xiuchen.”
“What do you mean?”
Moiuchen’s eyes narrowed, his gaze sharply on Gu Kai.
He had just got off the plane and had not yet had time to understand the situation in G City today.
Now, Gu Kai’s puzzling words brought a thick layer of confusion to his eyes.
Wen Ran pursed her lips, explaining lightly, “This morning, Yang Xinfa found me and gave me a recording. I don’t know what’s inside, and then, I also recorded his words. I was planning to go to the company and let Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng listen to it, but then I ran into your dad.”
Mo Xiuchen’s gaze darkened, he picked up her words, “Did my dad ask you for the recording pen?”
“You wouldn’t believe how scary Uncle Mo was. If not for Ah Mu and Ah Feng, I’m sure he would have tried to forcibly seize it.”
Gu Kai expressed his dissatisfaction openly.
As for Mo Jingteng’s tactics in business, he withheld his opinions.
However, when it came to his sister, regardless of whether he was Mo Xiuchen’s father or an elder, he would not allow Wen Ran to be bullied.
Seeing Mo Xiuchen go cold, Wen Ran quickly reassured him, “Xiuchen, it wasn’t as bad as elder brother Kai has described. I also almost angered the chairman this morning.”
Mo Xiuchen snorted disapprovingly, “He’s not behaving like a respectable elder. Even if you did anger him, it’s not your fault.”
Gu Kai smiled, satisfied with Mo Xiuchen’s defense of his sister.
After thinking for a while, he asked again, “Xiuchen, is there any secret between your company and Yang Xinfa? It seems that the tower crane accident is just a trigger, which is bound to lead to many problems. You must be prepared.”
No matter what secrets the MS Group had, Gu Kai would firmly support Wen Ran.
Mo Xiuchen stayed expressionless, revealing nothing.
If you looked closely, though, you could catch a fleeting emotion in his eyes, “We will know how many problems there are when the time comes!”
