After losing her memory, Mo Xiaotuo enters a flash marriage to continue managing her property but mistakenly marries Luo Chen instead. They agree to divorce after one year. Not long after the weddi...
conscience!
You call it conscience when you swallow up my parents' property?
Mo Xiaotuo was furious but dared not vent her anger. She was afraid of causing trouble for Mr. Luo, and also afraid that they would really stop giving her brother any money.
She absolutely must get her degree from University A so she can find a good job.
Seeing the self-reproach in Mo Xiaotuo's eyes, Mo Tansheng thought victory was assured and stated the conditions he had prepared.
"Luo Chen, I heard that the Chen family has recently set its sights on that piece of land in Dongyan Bay and is preparing to put it up for tender. Although our Mo family is not one of the top companies in City A, we are definitely a force to be reckoned with. If..." He said, looking at Luo Chen.
Luo Chen tapped his fingers on the table, his cold eyes revealing no emotion. He still held Mo Xiaotuo's hand with his other hand, and he could feel that the little wildcat was getting more nervous.
He deliberately kept Mo Tansheng in suspense for a while before finally asking, "What benefit would I get if I helped you?"
benefit!
What other benefits do you want?
Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, Yan Bing angrily replied, "Isn't paying that much money for that sickly guy every year enough of a benefit?"
hehe……
Luo Chen laughed after hearing this, and said unhurriedly, "That's between you and Xiao Tuo, what does it have to do with me? I married her, not your entire Mo family. Business is business, Mr. Mo, you're a businessman too, don't you understand?"
"Are you saying that you won't help us unless there's something in it for you, and you'll just find another wife?" Morissa deliberately said something hurtful, and then looked at Mo Xiaotuo triumphantly.
Mo Xiaotuo felt a tightness in her chest, but thinking that they were just a couple in a contract, there was nothing to be upset about. It was just a charade, and they would separate when it was all over. Why make things difficult for herself?
Yan Bing glanced at Luo Chen with disdain. She thought he was a man of principle, but now that she knew Mo Xiaotuo was a burden, she knew to distance herself from him.
Mo Tansheng looked at Luo Chen with a serious expression. He was a veteran in the business world, but he couldn't see through this kid.
At first, seeing him defend Mo Xiaotuo, I thought they had a good relationship. Now that he's severing ties so quickly, is he also a bottomless pit that can't be satisfied?
"What do you want?" This time it was his turn to ask.
Seeing that the trap he had set was working, Luo Chen pretended to be greedy and said, "If I can help the Mo family win the bid for that piece of land in Dongyan Bay, I want 10% of the Mo family's shares."
"What did you say?" Yan Bing exclaimed excitedly upon hearing this.
Even she only owns 10% of the shares; this is outrageous.
"Luo Chen, you're too greedy!" Morissa said, but in her heart, she liked Luo Chen even more.
Greedy people are ambitious, and she likes ambitious men. Only such men are domineering enough and worthy of her, Morissa.
"Hehe..." Luo Chen chuckled coldly, glancing at the family of three with amusement before saying disdainfully, "Given the current state of the Mo family, it's nothing more than a death throes. If this 10% share can save the Mo family, you should be grateful to me as your benefactor."
"You!" Yan Bing was so angry at Luo Chen's attitude that she jumped up and down.
"Whether you want it or not is up to you. Plenty of companies like yours are seeking to cooperate with me," Luo Chen said, standing up.
Mo Xiaotuo never expected Mr. Luo to be so powerful, daring to threaten even her usually arrogant uncle. She secretly gave him a few stars in her heart.
"What are you still standing there for? Haven't you been bullied enough?" Luo Chen saw the little wildcat still sitting there dumbly, grabbed her, and strode out of the hall.
Mo Xiaotuo looked at Mr. Luo; she had never seen anyone who could keep her uncle in check.
She didn't even know how she left the Mo family home; he just pulled her along towards the entrance of the villa area.
The atmosphere inside the room became oppressive.
Clang!
The calm that follows is a frenzy, a furious rage.
Mo Tansheng swept the food off the table. In all these years, he had never been choked by such a young junior. Thinking of Luo Chen's arrogance and the company's difficult situation, he clutched his chest in anger.
"Honey, what's wrong? Don't scare me!" Yan Bing saw her husband clutching his chest and quickly went to help him up.
Snap!
Mo Tansheng slapped Yan Bing across the face, then shouted angrily, "What did I tell you before? You actually withheld her food and tuition fees! Are you that short of money?"
Yan Bing hadn't seen her husband so angry in a long time, and she touched her face, not daring to utter a sound.
Seeing her mother being beaten, Morissa cried out to her father in distress, "Dad, how could you hit Mom for a stranger? Mom, let me see..."
"You don't know anything!" Mo Tansheng pointed at Mo Lisha and cursed. He paced back and forth irritably, then glared at the mother and daughter fiercely: "I don't care what you did with the money, just go and pay Zhiyan's living expenses for the next few months."
"Why should we go, Mom? We're not going!" Morissa didn't want to waste money on that little bitch.
"Why should she? Because the man she married is the only one who can help the Mo family," Mo Tansheng warned the mother and daughter, word by word.
Morissa didn't believe it at all. How could a mere laborer help the Mo family? Her eyes darted around as she said, "Instead of placing your hopes on a laborer, why not just give her to the Zhang family? The Zhang family is much better."
"Fine, why don't you go? Don't think I don't know what you're up to!" Mo Tansheng glanced at the two of them coldly.
Morissa was speechless, but Yan Bing couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to give 10% of the company's shares to that brat?"
"If you can get that project for me, I can give you 10%!" Mo Tansheng felt that he could no longer talk to this mother and daughter. He angrily kicked a chair, but his foot hurt and he shook.
He limped on one leg and walked towards the door without looking back.
"Where are you going?" Yan Bing chased after her husband and grabbed him.
"Anywhere is better than staying at home!" Mo Tansheng shook off Yan Bing's hand and left the villa.
Waaah...
Yan Bing was so angry at this cold look that she immediately burst into tears.
"Mom, what's there to cry about? It's not like we can't afford that much money. Besides, you have so many friends. You can ask them for help. If you can get that 10% of the shares, let's see if Dad will dare to treat you like this again!" Morissa was eyeing that 10% of the shares. Once her mother got them, they would be hers.
Yan Bing stopped crying after hearing what her daughter said.
That's right. As long as she gets that 10% of the shares, she'll have a say in the company.
After discussing it, the mother and daughter started calling their friends and arranging to meet up to talk things over.
On the other side, after Luo Chen and Mo Xiaotuo left the Mo family villa, they both slowed down their pace in unison.
"Look over there, that used to be a lake with lots of lotus flowers. In the summer, my brother and I loved to go there to see the lotus flowers." Mo Xiaotuo couldn't help but run over to take a look as she passed the former lotus pond.
