early morning,

While Mo Ran was eating breakfast, Ya Zi, dressed in her police uniform, picked up a piece of bread and said as she ate.

"Aran, my dad just called!"

"They said Huo Zhengguo from the Huo family invited you to lunch today!"

After Ya Zi finished speaking, Mo Ran didn't show any expression, she just gave a simple "oh" to indicate that she understood!

Mona and the other girls, however, showed a hint of surprise on their faces!

Oh, Huo Jia…!

That's one of the four major families in Hong Kong!

From birth to death, the people of Hong Kong Island are inseparable from the control of the four major families.

The hospital where I was born was controlled by one of the four major families, as were the schools I attended, and even the places I worked after I grew up.

Even if someone dies of old age, the place where they are cremated and buried is a company controlled by the four major families!

To put it another way, the four major families in Hong Kong today are like the chaebol families in South Korea in later generations, controlling every aspect of Hong Kong!

"Ah Ran, Huo Zhengguo is the head of the Huo family. Aren't you surprised that he took the initiative to invite you to dinner?"

Despite Guan Zhilin's surprise, Mo Ran's expression remained unchanged as she asked in return.

"It's just asking me out for dinner!"

"It's not like the Huo family is being adopted by me, what am I surprised about!"

When Guan Zhilin heard Mo Ran's explanation, she was stunned for a few seconds before giving him a thumbs up!

If she hadn't been sitting opposite Mo Ran, she would have definitely given Mo Ran a big kiss on the cheek and said that.

"My husband is amazing!"

After wiping her mouth, Mo Ran spoke to the little Jewish boy.

"Little Jew and Gangsheng, you two will come with me to my appointment at noon!"

After hearing Mo Ran's words, Xiao Youyi and Gang Sheng exchanged a glance, and a hint of fear appeared on their pretty faces.

"Aran, we're afraid of embarrassing you...!"

Upon hearing the two women say this, Mo Ran pinched the cheek of the little Jewish girl sitting next to him and said.

"What's there to be afraid of!"

"Huo Zhengguo doesn't have more hands than anyone else. The reason I'm having you two come with me is because you two are in charge of the business on the mainland!"

"And Huo Zhengguo is a mainlander, so you can talk business with him after you go there!"

After hearing this, Xiao Youyi pondered for a moment before speaking.

"The Huo family owns their own port in Guangzhou, so can we rent their port to transport goods?"

Seeing how petty Xiaoyou was, Mo Ran pinched her cheek again until Xiaoyou got a little annoyed and slapped Mo Ran's hand away. Only then did Mo Ran speak.

"Do I really need to take you two along for such a small business?"

"What is that?!"

Facing the little Jewish girl's bright, big eyes, Mo Ran took a piece of paper and wiped away the bread crumbs left on her lips before speaking.

"channel!"

"Didn't our first batch of Panda home appliances leave the factory in Guangzhou?"

“Our original channels only opened up those big cities in mainland China, but Huo Zhengguo invested in mainland China decades earlier than us!”

"Their distribution channels can be said to cover the entire mainland. By using their channels, our Panda Home Appliances can immediately be sold throughout the entire mainland!"

Upon hearing Mo Ran's grand vision, a mischievous glint immediately appeared in Xiao Youyi's big eyes!

"Ah Ran, the factory in Guangzhou needs to be expanded again!"

"When I go to Guangzhou tomorrow, I'll talk to Mayor Wu about increasing the land acquisition..."

Before Mo Ran could finish speaking, the landline in the living room rang!

Li Jiaxin, who was closest to the phone, put down her milk and answered the call.

"Who are you looking for?"

Shao Yifu on the other end of the phone recognized the voice as Li Jiaxin's, and his tone became more polite than Li Jiaxin had ever heard before!

"It's Jiaxin, isn't it!"

"This is Shao Yifu. Is Mr. Mo home?"

"I have something I want to discuss with him!"

Li Jiaxin heard Shao Yifu's tone on the other end of the phone. To put it nicely, he was very polite; to put it bluntly, he was extremely humble!

This is a completely different person from the one when Shao Yifu made her sign a predatory contract with Sister Alin!

Feeling incredibly pleased, Li Jiaxin then curled up her lips and revealed the same expression she used to have with Shao Yifu.

"Oh, it's Xiao Shao!"

"My husband is having breakfast. I'm asking him if he has time to answer the phone!"

When Shao Yifu heard Li Jiaxin's words, there was not a trace of anger on his face!

Instead, he spoke in an even more fawning tone.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Jiaxin!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaxin put down the phone and immediately rushed to Mo Ran's side.

A pair of fair arms wrapped around Mo Ran's neck from behind, and warm red lips kissed Mo Ran's face several times like a chick pecking at rice!

Mo Ran patted her pert buttocks and said...

"Whose phone call made you so happy!"

Hearing Mo Ran's words, Li Jiaxin stopped kissing Mo Ran's cheek, but a smile still appeared on her face.

Hehehehe!

"It's Shao Yifu!"

After saying her name, Li Jiaxin's expression brightened with even more joy as she continued.

"Haha, I've always wanted to call him Xiao Shao, but I could only think about it in my mind!"

"But it's done now, even though it was just a phone call!"

"Hehehe...!"

When Mo Ran heard that it was Shao Yifu who was looking for her, she didn't even need to guess why he was looking for her at this time!

It's simply because he's afraid that he'll use the same methods he used on Huo Zhaotang on Shao Yifu!
