Chapter 370 Clarifying the Engagement
Mo Shaochen sighed that Mr. Qin was really old and his composure was not as strong as before. He was so anxious that he exposed his cards.
But this is also normal. In history, emperors were talented and diligent in governing the country when they were young, but they became confused, stubborn and arbitrary in their later years, which led to their ruin in their later years.
Mo Shaochen felt vaguely disappointed.
In his heart, he hoped that Mr. Qin could remain wise and sober.
He always respected Mr. Qin as an elder and didn't want to break off the relationship with him.
"You worry too much. Even if something happens to me, the Mo family still has the first and fourth wives. Even if things get worse, my father is in good health and can hold on for another twenty years without any problem.
I am not a great man. I have done everything I can to the best of my ability. What does the rise and fall of the Mo family decades later have to do with me? "
Mo Shaochen's seemingly cold-blooded words were actually sincere and reasonable.
When a person dies, it is like the extinguishing of a light. For the position of the heir to the Mo family, he paid the price of his life and health. Within just a few years of taking over the Mo family, he increased the output value of the entire Mo industry by 30%.
The shock caused by the death of Mr. Mo was managed to stabilize the situation, and even the Mo family's reputation among famous families was further enhanced.
The Mo family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and Mo Shaochen is undoubtedly the best among the dozen or so generations in power.
This is also the reason why Mr. Qin insisted on pairing the two of them together even though he knew that Mo Shaochen didn't like Qin Jingshu.
Mr. Qin had nothing to say.
Mo Shaochen doesn't care about the future of the Mo family at all, so his worries and thoughts become ridiculous and utilitarian.
Old Master Qin lowered his attitude and said, "Shao Chen, let's not talk about your matter with Jingshu for now. I called you because I hope you can continue the cooperation project with the Chen family. Just consider it my request."
When Mr. Qin was young, he rarely asked for help from others, let alone asking the younger generation.
It was very difficult to say just a few words.
Mo Shaochen didn't want the old man to be like this, but when he thought of the grievances Tang Qi suffered at the hands of Qin Jingshu, Qin Jingshu had his parents, Old Man Qin and the entire Qin family behind him.
And his little friend was the only one behind him.
"You are too kind. As long as there is no problem with the audit and evaluation, the cooperation with the Chen family can be resumed. Speaking of requests, I actually have something to ask of you."
Although Mo Shaochen spoke so politely, Old Master Qin was not happy at all.
He watched Mo Shaochen grow up and knew his personality very well: he was cold, arrogant and strong. He had never even said soft words to Old Man Mo. Now he was speaking soft words to him, which meant he must have great motives.
Sure enough, Mo Shaochen’s next words made Mr. Qin’s heart sink to the bottom.
"There are always some rumors about my marriage. I was single before, so it didn't matter. But now I have someone I like, and I don't want her to be unhappy. So, I really hope you can help me get rid of these troubles and inconveniences."
Mr. Qin's voice became a little hoarse, "Stop talking..."
"After all, I am young, and my methods and means are rather harsh and incomplete. I am afraid that it will hurt your and Miss Qin's reputation."
What I mean is, if your Qin family doesn't resolve the problem as soon as possible, don't blame me for not giving you face.

Mr. Qin was silent for a long time, then he sighed, "On my 80th birthday in two months, I will clarify to the public that your engagement with Jingshu is not valid. How about that?"
"It's not that the engagement doesn't count, it's that it doesn't exist. Although you and the old man mentioned it privately at the beginning, I never agreed. Besides, if the Chen family can wait for two months, then I don't mind."
Old Master Qin didn't expect Mo Shaochen to be so determined. Not only did he haggle with him on words, he even refused to wait for two months. He couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"Shao Chen, Jingshu has liked you since she was a child. She has never been in a relationship for so many years. She has wasted more than 20 years for you. Even if you can't be husband and wife, at least you have the relationship of childhood sweethearts. Don't you even want to give her two months of buffer time?"
