Chapter 528 Suspicion
Qin Muchuan grunted in agreement and left.
A moment later, the sound of him arguing with Qin Muchi could be heard outside.
"No matter how you look at it, neither of your uncles seems like a smart person," Tang Bai said softly. "It's rare for the Qin family to produce a genius like Qin Mo."
Jiang Ruan explained the reason: "Qin Mo lives with his maternal grandfather most of the time."
"No wonder." Tang Bai said with a look of sudden realization.
"How's it going on your end?" Jiang Ruan asked with concern.
"It went quite smoothly." Tang Bai was quite satisfied with the current situation. "However, I might need you to accompany me to the Tang Group's dinner on Friday as my date. What do you think?"
Jiang Ruan: "Okay."
Tang Bai leaned against the door: "Don't you want to reconsider?"
"Is there anything we need to consider?" Jiang Ruan asked.
To her, Tang Bai was one of her own.
She never asks why her own people are in trouble and just helps them.
"The theme of the dinner was to welcome me as a member of the Tang Group," Tang Bai explained, not wanting her to misunderstand. "The real purpose was to see what our relationship really is."
Jiang Ruan: "Mm."
Tang Bai said sincerely, "You just need to make one noodle dish, and I'll take care of the rest."
"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded.
Seeing how smoothly the two were talking, Mo Mo couldn't hold back any longer.
He stood within Jiang Ruan's line of sight and said in a serious tone, "Boss, I also need your help with something."
Tang Bai and Jiang Ruan looked up at him.
My first thought was, "This kid is finally willing to tell me what he really thinks?"
"Go ahead," Jiang Ruan said.
Mo Mo looked at Tang Bai, then at Jiang Ruan: "I don't think you'll agree."
Tang Bai stood next to him: "How do you know you won't agree if you don't tell me?"
Mo Mo remained silent.
"I'll do everything I can to help you," Jiang Ruan said, straightening her expression.
Mo Mo: "Really?"
Jiang Ruan: "Mm."
"I want the balance in your bank card to stay with me in mine," Mo Mo said seriously. "Recently, the balance in my card has been appearing in my dreams, saying that there aren't enough of them to keep me company and that I should put more in."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
Tang Bai: "..."
The two pretended not to hear.
Jiang Ruan was busy with her work, while Tang Bai took the things and left.
The two tacitly isolated Mo Mo.
"Don't you want to help?" Mo Mo stared at Jiang Ruan, his tone still very human.
Jiang Ruan turned a deaf ear.
Mo Mo exposed her: "I know you can hear me."
Jiang Ruan flipped through the documents.
Mo Mo: "You're the ones who made me say it, and you're the ones who ignored me afterward."
“Something seems off here.” Jiang Ruan stood up with the documents in her hand and told Mo Mo, “You stay here and keep an eye on things. I’m going to Qin Mo’s office.”
"Boss," Mo Mo called out to her, "it's pointless to keep pretending."
Jiang Ruan turned around and said, "I really have something to do."
Mo Mo met her eyes: "Then would you be willing to lend me your remaining balance so that it can keep me company?"
"Are you willing?" Jiang Ruan asked in return.
Mo Mo: "I don't want to."
Jiang Ruan: "I don't want to either."
Mo Mo: "..."
Mo Mo felt that his boss was trying to trick him, and he had evidence.
Jiang Ruan took the documents to find Qin Mo, leaving him all alone in the office.
Mo Mo sent Tang Bai another message: "Would you be willing to give your bank account balance a fresh start?"
Mo Mo: [You're rich now.]
Mo Mo: [Giving your balance a fresh start will help it grow.]
Tang Bai replied with three ellipses.

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere here.
On the other hand, Qin Muchuan and Qin Muchi were at loggerheads. After leaving the Qin Group building, Qin Muchi cursed and got into his car, clearly showing his dislike for Qin Muchuan.
"Jiang Ruan is now a major shareholder of the Qin Group. You should think carefully about what you should and shouldn't say," Qin Muchuan admonished. "Don't keep causing me trouble."
Qin Mu scoffed lightly: "Who caused you trouble?"
Qin Muchuan looked at him.
"Don't think you're so great just because you're the head of the family," Qin Muchi said. "You can control everything, but you can't control how I poop or fart. I can do whatever I want."
Qin Muchuan's breathing became slightly heavy, and his lips parted slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, Qin Muchi continued, "Are you trying to tell Dad I'm looking for Jiang Ruan?"
"Good to know." Qin Muchuan replied casually.
"What good would it do you to tell him?" Qin Muchi felt secretly pleased just thinking about how this man had been swaggering around for the past few days. "I was just going to chat with my niece and get to know her better. He would have gotten the same answer if he had asked Jiang Ruan."
After saying that, he didn't care about Qin Muchuan's reaction, told the driver to drive off.
Qin Muchuan watched his car drive further and further away.
Only after he disappeared from sight did he take out his phone and call Qin Luofeng: "Come back, I have something to talk to you about."
I don't know what the other person said.
Qin Muchuan's expression turned serious: "It's not about dealing with Jiang Ruan, it's about other important matters."
Half an hour later.
Qin Muchuan's home.
When Qin Luofeng returned, Qin Muchuan was waiting for him in the living room as usual. Upon seeing him, Qin Muchuan said with a hint of sarcasm, "If I hadn't said that, would you have never planned to come back in this lifetime?"
"I've been a bit busy lately," Qin Luofeng said gently. "I haven't had much time."
Qin Muchuan snorted coldly: "Busy?"
Qin Luofeng responded calmly: "Hmm."
He really didn't want to go against Jiang Ruan anymore.
"Then you can go back to your work." Qin Muchuan's words were laced with sarcasm. "When the police come and arrest you, let's see if you'll still say that."
Qin Luofeng paused.
His attention was drawn to it: "What do you mean?"
“I suspect your second uncle told Jiang Ruan about what happened back then.” Qin Muchuan’s face was somber, and his eyes showed a hint of thought and seriousness. “These past two days, he’s been going to see Jiang Ruan a lot.”
"They're probably just looking for trouble," Qin Luofeng thought simply. "Just like they did at the old house before."
"Impossible," Qin Muchuan said with certainty. "Jiang Ruan's status is not what it used to be. If he wanted to cause trouble, Jiang Ruan would have thrown him out long ago. How could she let him stay inside?"
"It's also possible that what he said wasn't too outrageous, and Jiang Ruan was too lazy to pay attention to him," Qin Luofeng said, offering what he considered a suitable reason.
Qin Muchuan remained silent.
His intuition told him otherwise.
"You know your second uncle's temper." Qin Luofeng remained gentle throughout. "He was also involved in what happened back then, so talking about it won't do him any good."
"But it's our people who can actually do it," Qin Muchuan said.
Qin Luofeng's brows furrowed with a hint of silence.
Qin Muchuan noticed his reaction and added, "Most importantly, he said something very strange to me yesterday."
"What?" Qin Luofeng asked.
"I argued with him for a bit, and he said, 'Why are you being so aggressive? If you're so tough, why are you still acting so aggressive after you've been to prison?'" Qin Muchuan remembered those words very clearly. "Who would bring up prison for no reason?"
