CH 180

In a magnificent restaurant of M Country, soothing music played in the background and psychedelic lights filled the space.

In the undisturbed private room, Mo Beichen was dressed in an exquisite hand-made suit. Two buttons of the collar of his shirt had been unbuttoned and he looked a lot more unruly than usual.

Mo Beichen’s hair was slightly messed up, and he appeared less meticulous than usual. He completely integrated into the surrounding atmosphere. He glanced at the time on his mobile phone and figured that it must be afternoon in Beijing at this moment.

The man across from him was holding a glass of red wine in his hand, curling his lips while he watched Mo Beichen’s movements.

“So, what brings you here? Is there anything else that you need to deal with?” the man asked faintly.

Mo Beichen lifted his head and said, “I’ve settled all the agenda on this business trip.”

“Oh!” Lin Beice smiled and he grew more curious, “So whose messages are you waiting for?”

“If I say I’m waiting for my wife’s text message, would you believe it?”

Lin Beice didn’t believe Mo Beichen’s words at all. He lifted his eyebrows and said, “This joke of yours is too cold. Who doesn’t know that you never get close to women? I’m even worried you will end up being a bachelor for life. How is it possible…”

Lin Beice said while looking at Mo Beichen’s unusually serious face. He couldn’t help but pause. He asked with uncertainty, “You’re not joking, aren’t you?”

Mo Beichen didn’t answer but looked at him calmly. There wasn’t a hint in his eyes that he’s joking.

“F*ck!” Lin Beice leaped from the sofa, with a shocked expression. He pointed at Mo Beichen and asked emotionally, “So you…you said that you…have a wife? Not a girlfriend, so, you’re married?”

Mo Beichen curled the corners of his lips and nodded gently.

Lin Beice went stiff from shock. He stood there with an unreadable expression. His eyes were flashing with all kinds of expressions. This shocking news is even bigger than an old monk getting married.

“Quick, tell me which young miss is it. Do I know her?” Lin Beice felt that ever since he went abroad, some news must have been blocked because he hadn’t heard about this before.

“If you are so curious, I’ll introduce her to you when I have the opportunity to do so.” Mo Beichen stared at his phone again. He suddenly received a text message on his phone from Xia Weilan. He opened it, ‘I’ll be going back to visit Old Master Mo tonight. Today happens to be the once-a-week family dinner. Are you coming home tomorrow?’

Mo Beichen did not hesitate to reply to her text in front of Lin Beice, “I will be going back tonight.”

Lin Beice extended his neck and was stunned when he saw Mo Beichen’s reply, “You’re going back tonight?”

“Mm, the plane will leave in an hour.” Mo Beichen put away his mobile phone and looked at Lin Beice.

Lin Beice curled his lips, “You’re leaving so quick? After all, you have not been here for a long time.”

After that, Lin Beice focused the topic of their conversation on Mo Beichen’s mysterious wife. He really couldn’t wrap his head around what kind of woman could take down Mo Beichen.

Meanwhile, Xia Weilan drove to the Mo family’s old mansion alone.

She noticed that Liu Yinyin’s car was already parked at the parking lot. Xia Weilan realized that she must be here for dinner too. Although she didn’t like Liu Yinyin, she convinced herself that she only needed to endure this for a while only.

She parked the car and entered the living room. As soon as she got in, she saw Liu Yinyin standing at the door of the kitchen, instructing the kitchen servant to do something with her arms crossed, “Wash this again, don’t make it too spicy.”

Liu Yinyin was playing the score of a young madam. When she heard footsteps coming from behind her, she thought it was from another servant and she was about to pass down an instruction with a straight face. When she realized that it was Xia Weilan who came alone, she couldn’t help but let out a cold smile, ” I was wondering who that could be. So, it’s the Young Miss of the Xia Family.”

Lin Yinyin said the words ‘Young Miss of the Xia Family’ with a sinister vibe.

Xia Weilan looked around her and fixed her gaze on the study on the second floor. She knew that Old Master Mo might be talking to Mo Donglin in the study at this moment..

“You’re really a young miss. Do you plan to stand there and wait for food to be served while everyone is busy?” Liu Yinyin couldn’t help but remark ironically when she saw that she had been ignored.

Xia Weilan walked into the kitchen and saw the servants working busily inside the kitchen. She took the things in one of the servant’s hands, “Let me do it. You can boil the water.”

The maid was taken aback because she didn’t expect Xia Weilan would help her. She said in a sincere and frightened manner, “It’s okay, young madam. You should go outside and wait. Don’t overexert yourself. We can handle this sort of rough work.”

Xia Weilan has already taken the ingredients and started preparing them, “It’s okay, I just happened to know how to make this dish.”

Xia Weilan didn’t think there’s anything wrong with this. After all, she’s not born in a super-rich family and she used to cook from time to time. Besides, she was not afraid of Liu Yinyin, but she just felt that since she has nothing better to do, she should help out.

Liu Yinyin who stood at the door of the kitchen became even more arrogant. She let out a disdainful sneer as she stared at Xia Weilan getting busy in the kitchen.

Xia Weilan boiled the water, removed the feather and inner organs from the chicken, and placed it in a pot.

At this moment, Old Master Mo’s voice was heard from outside the kitchen, “Weilan, why are you in the kitchen?”

Xia Weilan was helping the servants cook other dishes. She turned around and looked at the old Master and Mo Donglin who had already walked in, and Liu Yinyin who was putting on a sour face at the door.

" "

“Grandpa.” Xia Weilan wiped her hands and explained, “I plan to cook a few dishes for you. I have made your favorite Fei Long soup. You can wait outside first, and it will be ready soon.”

Old Master Mo put on a gentle expression when he heard her words, “Silly girl, get out of there quickly. Just let the servants do this.”

“No, grandpa. I can do it. I’ve cooked this dish many times. Go wait outside so that the smell of the oil doesn’t choke you.” Xia Weilan sent Old Master Mo out.

Old Master Mo praised Xia Weilan for her thoughtfulness. That made Liu Yinyin twitch her eyebrows.

In the living room, Liu Yinyin quickly made tea for Old Master Mo. Unwilling to show any weakness, she said, “Grandpa, how’s the discussion with Donglin went? Recently, Donglin has helped the company obtain a big business deal. Don’t you think that it’s a waste of his talent for him to be a manager only? I am certain that he is more than capable of doing more important tasks.”

The more important job role above the manager will be the position of Mo Beichen, the president or the position of the vice president.

“Well, Donglin did a very good job this time, and he is really performing more steadily nowadays.” Old Master Mo touched his beard and didn’t conceal his appreciation for Mo Donglin.

When Mo Donglin heard this, he was delighted and straightened his back more than usual. He looked a lot more energetic.

“I’ll propose for you to be the vice president during the next shareholders meeting. However, it still depends on the decision of the shareholders.” Old Master Mo revealed his plan.

Liu Yinyin was overjoyed and immediately let out a smile.
