Chapter 132 How about you help me arrange a date with your brother tonight?

Mo Chi noticed the way Mo Yuan was looking at Chu Rou, and the pen in his hand snapped in two with a "snap".

The sound was quite loud, attracting everyone's attention.

Mo Chi casually tossed the pen onto the table. "This pen isn't very sturdy. Those who purchase office supplies should open their eyes and see if the manufacturer has given them a substandard one."

The office supplies consumed by the Mo Group are considerable, so they are procured through a unified bidding process by the purchasing department, which is managed by Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan chuckled, "It's because Xiao Chi, your destructive abilities are too strong. You've been like this since you were little, you like to destroy things that were originally intact. Next time, I'll have the purchasing department buy you a pure steel pen, the kind that can't be broken."

If Mo Chi's eyes could breathe fire, Mo Yuan would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Chu Rou saw the veins bulging on Mo Chi's hands and knew that he was getting angry.

She stretched out her arm and handed the pen in her hand to Mo Chi. It was a light purple metal ballpoint pen. "Mr. Chi, I have a sturdy pen here."

Hearing Chu Rou's voice, Mo Chi's volatile heart calmed down. He took the pen and casually asked, "Yours?"

Chu Rou hummed in agreement, her voice not loud, but clearly audible to those nearby, "I'm not used to the company's pens."

Mo Chi turned to look at Chu Rou, a smile in his eyes.

Chu Rou and Mo Chi exchanged a glance, then lowered their eyes expressionlessly.

Before Mo Yuan could speak again, Mo Anbang cleared his throat and said, "Alright, we can start the meeting now."

The meeting was chaired by Mo Yan, and its main content was the company's main operational direction and decisions for the next quarter.

The Mos Group's business spans multiple sectors, with a large proportion of its operations being export trade, resulting in significant annual costs for ocean freight logistics.

The shipping company currently cooperating with the Mo's Group is Blue Whale Shipping. The fees have been increasing year by year, but the sales growth has not been significant.

Moyuan also manages logistics and transportation, and everyone present knows perfectly well why ocean freight costs are constantly increasing.

Mo Anbang turned a blind eye, as long as his bottom line wasn't crossed, and he didn't want to embarrass his own son in public.

He didn't want to fight, but someone else was.

Mo Chi raised objections on the spot and proposed to re-tender the shipping company, with the lowest bidder winning the bid.

Mo Yuan's eyes seemed to be filled with venom as he glared fiercely at Mo Chi.

Mo Anbang seemed to hear it but not quite. He looked down at the financial report in his hand, staring at the arrow pointing upwards at a steep angle, pondering how to make a decision.

Mo Yan suddenly spoke up and suggested, "I think Xiao Chi makes a good point. The transportation cost may not seem high on its own, but it adds up. If every expense in the company is inflated, our operating costs will increase significantly. Saving costs is of paramount importance."

Mo Chi nodded repeatedly from the side and said, "As the saying goes, you won't go poor from eating or dressing, but you will go poor if you don't plan ahead. If our Mo Group wants to develop vigorously, we must control costs and not let some people take advantage of loopholes to put the company's money into their own pockets."

Mo Anbang glanced at Mo Chi and thought to himself, "That person must be you. You just took away a hundred million like that."

Chu Rou suppressed a laugh. That old saying was something she often said to Mo Chi, and he really took it to heart and even used it.

After Mo Chi finished speaking, Mo Yan remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "Since it was Xiao Chi who proposed this shipping tender, let him handle it. Dad, what do you think?"

Mo Anbang looked up at his eldest and youngest sons, and thought they made a lot of sense, so he nodded slightly.

Before Mo Anbang could speak, Mo Yuan suddenly said, "I disagree!"

"I have always been in charge of logistics and transportation, and even the bidding process should be my responsibility."

Mo Chi adjusted his glasses. "Second brother, we all know that you are in charge of logistics and transportation, so you should avoid suspicion and prevent others from saying that you are embezzling."

“You…” Mo Yuan slammed his hand on the table.

"Alright!" Mo Anbang raised his voice, "Leave the shipping tender to Mo Chi. Let's move on to the next question."

Mo Anbang ended the argument between the two young masters with a single sentence, and the higher-ups below dared not utter a word.

Mo Yuan clenched his fist, swallowing his anger.

Chu Rou sat behind Mo Chi, listening attentively to everyone's speeches. A high-level meeting allowed her to quickly understand the internal framework of the Mo Group.

Moyan, Moyuan, and Mochi each manage several sections.

As the eldest son and president, Mo Yan has the largest scope of management, followed by Mo Yuan, and Mo Chi naturally has the smallest.

Chu Rou could tell that Mo Yan and Mo Yuan didn't have a good relationship, which meant that Mo Yuan was now facing two opponents at once. Therefore, Mo Yuan always wanted to deal with the weakest opponent, Mo Chi, first.

This time, Mo Chi was clearly pushed out by Mo Yan to be used as a pawn. Of course, Mo Chi was doing it voluntarily, wanting to stand on the same side as Mo Yan, so he definitely had to put in some effort.

Chu Rou took more than ten pages of notes on the meeting, which was even more tiring than attending class.

It was finally over. Mo Anbang stood up first, and only then did the others dare to move.

Chu Rou moved the chair back to its original position, stood behind Mo Chi, and waited for him.

Mo Anbang stopped after taking two steps and turned to look at Chu Rou. "Chu Rou, right? Please organize today's meeting minutes and send them to all the participants."

Chu Rou was taken aback when she was called. After hearing the task Mo Anbang assigned her, she quickly nodded, "Okay, Chairman Mo!"

Mo Yan turned to Mo Chi and said, "Little Chi, do you have time tonight? Let's have dinner together."

"Is your sister-in-law going?"

Mo Chi was not surprised by Mo Yan's invitation. He had a good impression of his sister-in-law. If his elder brother brought his sister-in-law along, he would also like to bring Chu Rou along so that she could get to know his sister-in-law first.

When Mo Chi mentioned his wife, Mo Yan frowned. He and his wife had a business marriage. They had been married for three years, and each of them was busy with their own things. He was busy with the company, and she was busy with her studio. They did not disturb each other.

Aside from holidays like Chinese New Year, the two would only go to each other's homes to pretend to be a loving couple. He never brought her to such private gatherings on ordinary days.

He didn't plan to bring anyone today either, saying, "Just the two of us brothers!"

Mo Chi nodded, "Okay!"

Chu Rou overheard everything clearly. Mo Chi was going to have dinner with his older brother that night to discuss business, leaving her all alone. What could she possibly do?

"Chu Rou," Mo Chi called out to Chu Rou, who was lost in thought, "Let's go!"

"Oh!" Chu Rou followed Mo Chi out of the conference room.

Chu Rou returned to her seat and, while she still had some memory, began to organize the meeting minutes. The only sound throughout the office area was the sound of her typing on the keyboard.

His typing speed made the secretaries behind him look up.

Finally finished before leaving get off work, Chu Rou checked it from beginning to end and felt that there were no problems. She opened the company's internal email system, sent the meeting minutes to all senior executives of the company, and copied the chairman.

Chu Rou stretched and turned to see Qi Lin, wondering what she could do that night.

She moved closer to Qi Lin, glanced at Mo Chi's office, and seeing that no one came out, whispered, "Qi Lin, how about you help me arrange a date with your brother tonight?"
