Chapter 69: How Could This Scare Her?

“It’s delicious, right? I don’t like sweet things, but I especially like this.”

Mo Chi didn’t want to dampen the lass’s spirits as he saw her joy and encouragement, so he nodded fiercely and said with difficulty, “Delicious!”

As the saying goes, one has to return the favor to that person when you gain benefit from them. Qin Ran took the opportunity to say, “Actually, I have something to ask of you.”

As expected. “What is it?” Mo Chi swallowed the meat pine and picked up the milk tea to wash down the sweetness. He felt much better.

“Don’t hire a lawyer for me. Don’t pursue Zhang Lan’s legal responsibility anymore. She has learned her lesson. This matter is over.” Qin Ran lowered her head and said.

“Why?”

“It’s not appropriate to talk about personal reasons.” Mo Chi did not hesitate to use the company to stand up for her, but she stopped him and wanted to let the other party off. She was indeed quite embarrassed to talk about this.

“Alright.” Mo Chi was straightforward. As long as she wasn’t willing to talk about her personal reasons, he wouldn’t ask further. His heart ached when he saw his precious wife being bullied in all kinds of videos on the Internet. However, the person involved was Qin Ran after all. He had no right to make any decisions for her.

She thought that Mo Chi would say more, but she didn’t expect him to agree so readily. Qin Ran felt that she had spent so much money on all kinds of bribes for nothing, but she also felt complicated. She and Mo Chi were strangers who had met by chance, and it was only by chance that they had come to this day. However, he seemed to understand her better than those who had been with her for a long time. He understood her weakness and her bottom line.

A commotion suddenly came from outside the door. She tilted her head to listen. It was Mo Chi’s second uncle, Mo Huai, bargaining with his secretary.

“President Mo is really busy. You can’t barge in. Please wait here first.”

“I’m his second uncle. How can an elder wait for a junior? Even if he’s the chairman, he has to follow the rules.”

“Let him in!” As soon as Mo Chi finished speaking, the office door was pushed open.

“So there’s someone in your office? No wonder you didn’t let me in. Are you afraid that I’ll ruin your plans?” His tone was so annoying that Qin Ran wanted to teach this second uncle a lesson.

“If you have something to say, say it. If not, go out and turn right. I won’t send you off.” Mo Chi was straightforward.

“Alright, then let me ask you why you suspended Mo Lai from his work and stopped his salary.”

The Mo Lai that Mo Huai mentioned was his son. He had been hanging around in the corporation since he graduated from an unranked technical school. He said that he was here to work, but he would be sick for five days a week. The remaining two days were the two days off. Mo Chi was domineering. On account of his grandfather, he had plenty of money to support an idle person like him.

However, in the past month, there were always female employees who inexplicably resigned. After an investigation, they found out that this good-for-nothing Mo Lai actually molested female employees in the office. Mo Chi was afraid that this matter would be blown up, so he suspended Mo Lai indefinitely.

“You shouldn’t ask me about this. Go home and ask your son. He knows better than me.” Mo Chi was afraid that he would scare Qin Ran, who was coming to his office for the first time, so he didn’t want to be too blunt and unpleasant.

“Mo Lai said that you don’t like him at all. You always make things difficult for him at work.”

When Mo Huai reached the exciting part, he raised his hand and pointed at Mo Chi’s nose. “Do you think that after you become the chairman of this corporation, the entire corporation will be yours? Don’t blame me for not reminding you. The old master is still around. He dotes on Mo Lai the most. Do you think he will settle scores with you?”

Mo Chi did not speak. Instead, he turned around to look at the scenery outside the window.

“Do you believe that I’ll bring this matter to the Old Master?” Mo Huai threatened.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Second Uncle to make a trip to the old residence.” Mo Chi did not care about this threat at all.

It was Mo Lai’s fault in the first place. If he stayed in the corporation, the Mo Family’s reputation would be ruined. The Old Master was a sensible person. He would definitely not do anything foolish to protect his grandson.

What happened next was imaginable. Mo Huai’s face turned green and black from the mockery. He could only slam the door and leave. Before he left, he didn’t forget to say something ruthless, “Just you wait.”

“Did I scare you?” As soon as Mo Huai left, Mo Chi walked up to Qin Ran and patted her head gently.

How could this scare her? After all, she was the famous Beauty Fox on the Wanted List.

An hour later, Qin Ran returned to the Mo Residence under the escort of Mo Chi’s chauffeur.
