Chapter 199 He Thought You Were Pregnant
Jian Mo didn't say much, his face looked extremely pale and ugly.
When I was discharged from the hospital, I met Xu Ming. It seemed that Huo Qichen had already left. He put his hands in his pockets and said lightly, "He thought you were pregnant just now."
The man who usually kept his emotions to himself was almost panicking not long ago. After hearing that the vomiting was just due to stomach upset, he looked faintly disappointed and said to him with some embarrassment, "Don't you want to do an ultrasound?"
Xu Ming was stunned at that time.
"Oh, no, I just have a bad stomach."
Xu Ming didn't dare to look at Huo Qichen's expression. He already knew that this man's love for Jian Mo had reached a certain level, to the point where he wanted to have a child with her.
like……
"I only vaguely heard some rumors about you. What happened? Did you and Huo Qichen fall out?"
Jian Mo sat in the passenger seat and took out her phone to check who was calling. Most of them were from colleagues in the department. "He's maliciously attacking the Zhou family, and he didn't even let Huo Wan go."
Qingying understood and glanced at her, "Wen Yuan has been looking for you."
"Well, pitiful Miss Wen, if I were a man, I would also fall at her feet." Jian Mo selectively replied to some messages, including Xiao Chen.
"It seems like you're going to stand against Huo Qichen." Qingying said.
"I have to stand." Jian Mo knew that she didn't have that much ability, so she could only do her best. Then she suddenly remembered to ask: "The heir of the Wen family is Wen Yuan? Why not Wen Qiushi?"
When Qingying mentioned this, her expression darkened. "You may not know this, but the Wen family loves their daughter, especially their daughter. Furthermore, Wen Qiushi's abilities are not outstanding enough, so everyone assumes that Wen Yuan is the future heir."
"It's strange, the eldest son always inherits the family business, and the Wen family doesn't favor boys over girls."
"There is a hidden story." Qingying didn't say much.
After receiving Jian Mo's reply, Xiao Chen immediately called her: "What's going on? How can you dismiss me just like that? Have you gone to see your boss?"
Not only did he not look for it, he also had a quarrel with the "leader".
"It's okay, it's just a job. I won't starve."
Seeing Jian Mo so calm and composed, Xiao Chen was very confused. "This is not your style, Xiao Mo. Did you read the financial news that broke out today?"
"……Um."
"You have nothing to do with this, right?" Xiao Chen asked cautiously.
"..." Jian Mo felt really guilty for a moment, "What does it have to do with me?"
"You scared me! I always thought what happened between you two was such a coincidence that I thought they were related." Xiao Chen took a deep breath. "I just entered the tea room and heard the leaders discussing it. I heard that the amount of money the foreign company used to acquire Huo Wan's team was between 1 billion and 2 billion."
Jian Mo choked on her saliva, "Is this true?"
"I heard them say that. I'm not sure. You seem surprised."
"No, thank you, Xiao Chen. Please keep an eye on the design department. It doesn't matter whether I can go back or not." After giving the instructions, Jian Mo hung up the phone and said to Qingying, "Send me to Huo Wan."
Qingying turned the steering wheel and said, "Okay."
After she got married, her personality became much smoother, which made Jian Mo a little uncomfortable. "Are you okay in the Wen family?"
"Don't ask."
It doesn't look good.
Jian Mo put away her curiosity and stopped there.
She told Huo Wan the purchase price, and he was delighted. "This is very important to us. Knowing the approximate amount will give us a way to deal with it."
Jian Mo smiled and said, "Why don't I stay and face it together with you. Anyway, I have been dismissed by Huo Qichen and have nothing to do."
"That's not good."
"It's decided."
Although Jian Mo knew nothing about finance, she stayed and helped the team members without asking for any salary, doing purely voluntary work.
From today on, she frequently received unknown takeouts.
The team was very busy. Jian Mo almost lived in the office. When she felt sleepy, she would take a nap on the sofa. When she woke up and saw the employees arrived, she would immediately start a morning meeting. The takeaway seemed to have been timed perfectly, usually arriving at this time. Breakfast was light porridge and side dishes, and everyone in the office had a share.
Although it is a small thing, it tastes incredibly delicious and has a refreshing taste, and a lot of people have praised it.
They all thought it was takeout that Jian Mo ordered.
No way, you can tell it’s the work of Mingyuan’s chef just by taking a bite.
She remembered the cold expression of the man in the hospital yesterday. She threw the spoon in her hand into the bowl with a crisp sound, and put it down without eating.
Who knew there would be one and two? Not only breakfast, but also lunch and dinner were delivered at mealtimes. After lunch there was afternoon tea, which came with a bouquet of flowers, pills and ointments. It was so exquisite.
She expressed her thoughts through actions, without moving or looking, and threw everything into the trash can.
The person who was responsible for delivering the meal had a bitter look on his face and whispered to her, "Mrs. Huo, if you don't eat, I won't be able to report back. My husband will scold me..."
It was the same trick again. Jian Mo was almost angry, but still did her own thing.
Over time, not only did the employees notice something was wrong, but even Huo Wan started asking, "Is there a man pursuing you, sister-in-law?"
Jian Mo rolled her eyes and said, "You think too much."
She really wanted to condemn the man, but her fingers stopped on the dial pad, unable to press a single number.
She didn't go back to Mingyuan. If she really needed to, she would go to the hospital and spend the night on the sofa in Jian's father's ward.
The next day, Jian Mo went to bed late. When she left the house, she was thinking that she must have missed breakfast. But when she opened the door, the delivery man was standing at the door of the ward.
Jian Mo felt like cursing.
People who haven't fully recovered from their illnesses are always particularly bad-tempered. "Keep an eye on me!"
The delivery man had a hard time saying, "Mrs. Huo, we are just following orders."
Jian Mo didn't even turn around, "Go back and tell your husband that if he really wants me to eat, ask him to deliver it personally."
After informing Huo Wan of the acquisition amount, she began discussing her plans with Zhou Liangqi. "I've received accurate information that the funds they're using for the acquisition are between 10 and 20 billion. The funds Huo Wan can raise in the short term are very limited, so there's probably a funding gap of 10 billion."
After a brief pause, she said, "I'd like to borrow the money from you. Huo Wan has agreed to use all of his Huo shares as collateral."
Over there, Zhou Liangqi was helping Xu Xiaolin make mango mousse. His hands were covered in flour, and his cell phone was on the table with the hands-free mode on.
He didn't answer for a long time, and even Xu Xiaolin, an outsider, could hear the anxious tone of the woman on the other end of the phone.
The flour was finally mixed, and Zhou Liangqi put it aside to wake up. He turned around and washed his hands before saying, "Do you know what will happen if you use the largest stake as collateral and win a great victory but fail in the counter-takeover?"
He said calmly, "If we fail, it won't be as simple as losing everything. Huo Wan won't be able to repay these debts in his lifetime. And if I backstab you and then compete with the acquirer, you'll be mine in no time."
"This is a thankless task, Jian Mo, have you thought it through?"
