Chapter 424 Something Big Has Happened
Feng Jinchen initially had an expression that said, "Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he would still use family discipline on Wu Yaoyao."
But the moment he saw who it was, he froze.
His eyes held shock, doubt, guilt, and cowardice.
Out of the corner of his eye, Feng Jinchen saw the servant obliviously about to pull out Wu Yaoyao's fourth fingernail. His forehead throbbed, and he quickly and sternly said...
"stop!"
Wu Yaoyao finally got a chance to catch her breath. Although her whole body ached terribly, she still used her last bit of strength to turn her head and look over.
The moment I saw who it was,
A triumphant smile, as if victory was in sight, curled at the corners of Wu Yaoyao's lips.
As soon as my brain relaxed, I immediately fainted.
Seeing Wu Yaoyao faint, Feng Jinchen felt even more guilty and sternly reprimanded, "What are you standing there for? Call the doctor right now!"
Soon, Dr. Xiao, who was standing nearby, was conscripted into the army.
After examining her, Dr. Xiao said hesitantly, "Miss Wu just fainted from the pain. She'll be fine after a rest. There's nothing seriously wrong with her."
Hearing Dr. Xiao say this, Feng Jinchen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went down from the stage to greet the group of uninvited guests.
He apologized to the woman in the lead.
"Mr. Mo, what brings you here?"
Mo Qian sneered, "If I had arrived any later, my daughter would probably be in your hands. Feng Jinchen, you really have a lot of nerve. You dare to touch my daughter, Mo Qian's daughter."
Hearing Mo Qian admit that Wu Yaoyao was her daughter, Feng Jinchen felt both overjoyed and regretful.
To his delight, his gamble paid off. By keeping Wu Yaoyao around, he could extract a lot of benefits from the Mo family.
The regrettable thing is that he has already divorced Wu Yaoyao, and his biological mother, Mo Qian, witnessed him abusing Wu Yaoyao, which is quite embarrassing.
After a quick thought, Feng Jinchen hurriedly said ingratiatingly,
"Mr. Mo, Wu Yaoyao cheated on me. The child in her belly is someone else's. Afraid that the old man would tell, she personally pushed the old man off a cliff, taking his life."
There's an old Chinese saying, "A life for a life." I only spared her from going to jail because we were husband and wife; I just used a little bit of family discipline to teach her a lesson.
"I'm already under immense pressure, trading a few fingernails for the old man's life. I hope Mr. Mo can understand."
Mo Qian didn't speak, her gaze sweeping across the stage.
Su Xi's back tensed instantly. She was certain that Mo Qian's gaze swept over her, but without lingering or hesitation, and finally settled steadily on Wu Yaoyao.
"I'll take her away, Mr. Feng, is that alright?"
"Huh? This..."
Seeing Feng Jinchen hesitate, Mo Qian sneered, "Yao Yao is currently unconscious. Even if President Feng wants to compensate her, shouldn't he wait until she has recovered?"
Feng Jinchen did indeed think that way, but he felt a little embarrassed when Mo Qian bluntly said it.
However, since Mo Qian mentioned compensation, Feng Jinchen felt reassured and could only wait patiently for Mo Qian to bring Wu Yaoyao to deliver the money.
Feng Jinchen said generously and politely, "Mr. Mo, what are you saying? I just feel a little bad about it and wanted to send someone to take Yao Yao to the capital."
Mo Qian nodded expressionlessly, "Then I'll trouble you."
Feng Jinchen?
It's true that the richer people are, the stingier they become. She actually wants this tiny bit of scrap?
However, he quickly realized that it was just a small amount of money, a wise move to make a big profit from a small investment.
So Feng Jinchen quickly called on people to help, contributing money and effort to escort Wu Yaoyao to the capital.
Of course, that's a story for another time.
Among the guests below the stage, Ren Xingheng stared intently at Mo Qian, his eyes widening with increasing confusion and shock.
If I remember correctly, Mo Qian looks a lot like the rag doll that her mother used to make voodoo dolls.
Isn't Su Mo's mother her mother's rival in love? Could it be that Su Mo's mother didn't die, but instead changed her identity and became the president of the Mo Corporation?
How is that possible?
Ren Xingheng found it increasingly unbelievable the more he thought about it.
He had never seen the real voodoo doll, so it was possible he mistook it for someone else. But his mother shouldn't have been mistaken.
So Ren Xingheng secretly took a picture of Mo Qian in a corner where no one could see it, and then sent it to Ren's mother.
The moment Ren's mother saw the photo, she was completely horrified, as if she had seen a ghost.
She was negotiating a very important collaboration, but now she has to repeatedly apologize to the client.
"Excuse me, I'm not feeling well and need to use the restroom."
She rushed to the bathroom, locked the door, and immediately called her son, her voice trembling.
“Son, how did you get that bitch’s picture? That bitch, she’s really persistent. She’s been missing for so long, why is she showing up again? She clearly doesn’t want me to have a good time.”
After venting her pent-up resentment, the fear on Ren's mother's face lessened somewhat.
Ren Xingheng finally realized that Mo Qian in front of him was indeed his mother's former rival in love, and his heart was immediately filled with shock.
He had a feeling that their peaceful good days were probably coming to an end.
But his mother had gone mad, so he had to remain calm. He said in a low voice, "Mom, can't you admit your mistake?"
"No way, I'd recognize that bitch even if she were ashes. Dressed so smartly, she can't be doing really well, can she?"
In Ren's mother's mind, even if that wretched woman was lucky enough to survive, she was still a homeless woman who made a living by scavenging for garbage. How could she possibly live such a glamorous life? She didn't believe it.
She wouldn't believe it even if you beat her to death.
Ren Xingheng knew his mother wouldn't accept it, but he had to tell the truth.
"Yes, she's doing very well. She's now Mo Qian, the president of the Mo family, the top of the four major conglomerates in Beijing, China."
"What? How is this possible? I don't believe it. Son, she must have switched identities with someone else."
Son, you need to investigate her, investigate her thoroughly.
If she were so audacious as to impersonate someone else, especially someone with such a prestigious identity, she'd be dead, definitely dead.
Ren Xingheng tightened his grip on the phone and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand."
"Son, whatever you do, don't let Su Changduo know about Mo Qian's existence."
"I understand, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Ren was still somewhat absent-minded and stayed in the bathroom for a long time before she was able to mentally prepare herself.
But when she finally composed herself and went out to discuss business, the latter had already left with a dark expression because she had taken too long.
Mrs. Ren launched into a tirade of curses, calling the woman surnamed Mo her nemesis. She had taken away the love of her life before, and now that she had been dead for so long, she had suddenly come back to life and ruined such a big business deal of hers. She would never let her get away with it.
If she can beat her the first time, she can beat her the second time. Just you wait and see!
Ren Xingheng's emotions remained unsettled for a long time.
He had been watching Mo Qian, but then his peripheral vision caught Su Xi, and his gaze suddenly froze.
He then realized that,
Su Xi and Mo Qian,
They even look somewhat alike.
They can't possibly be related by blood, right?
However, Ren Xingheng quickly denied this speculation.
Mo Qian is Su Mo's mother, so it's natural that the mother and daughter look alike.
Since Su Xi and Su Mo look almost identical, it's understandable that Su Xi and Mo Qian would bear some resemblance.
It was purely a coincidence.
However, he didn't know Su Xi very well before, and only now did he realize what she was carrying in her heart.
It takes great courage and determination for a young woman to stand up for her mother in such a grand setting.
Ren Xingheng admired her and couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
Noticing that intense gaze, Su Xi turned her head to look.
The moment she saw it was Ren Xingheng, she immediately looked away expressionlessly. Even when Ren Xingheng greeted her warmly, she pretended not to see him.
She still trusted her intuition.
Some people appear to be good, but are not necessarily so in private.
Su Xi stared intently at Mo Qian, unable to get enough of looking at her.
Mo Qian never responded to her gaze, which showed that she really didn't want to have anything to do with her.
Su Xi felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
However, seeing that she was living a good life, she was relieved.
After Mo Qian and Wu Yaoyao's group left, Su Xi saw no need to stay any longer, and besides, she missed Nianxi.
She then left the venue to catch the earliest flight.
Ren Xingheng originally wanted to leave with Su Xi, but he had more important things to do. He had to stay and investigate Mo Qian.
Mo Qian's disappearance was related to his mother. If this were to be exposed, not to mention how Su Changduo, that doting husband, would retaliate, Mo Qian's current achievements and status would also make things difficult for them.
Ren Xingheng used to not understand why his mother would do such a crazy thing for a man, but now, he seems to understand it a little bit.
Ren Xingheng also quietly left the banquet and followed Mo Qian and her group all the way to the capital.
Feng Jinchen assumed that Wu Yaoyao's trip was to acknowledge her ancestors, so he waited every day for his exorbitant compensation.
He had made up his mind: if he didn't get half of the Mo family's empire, he would insist that Wu Yaoyao pay for the old man's life.
We'll see who compromises first.
Although those inferences are merely speculations and cannot be used as evidence to convict Wu Yaoyao, it is a fact that Wu Yaoyao killed the old man, and finding conclusive evidence is not difficult.
Therefore, Feng Jinchen had been waiting for the day when he could take over half of the Mo family's shares.
Unfortunately, after waiting and waiting, he received news that Wu Yaoyao had been expelled from the Mo family.
Feng Jinchen felt like the sky had fallen; he couldn't believe it was real.
If Wu Yaoyao is really removed from the list, wouldn't all his strategies, efforts, and forbearance be wasted?
Mo Qian wouldn't be that ruthless, would she?
For such a tiny bit of equity, he wouldn't even acknowledge his own daughter?
Feng Jinchen quickly sent his trusted confidants to find out what was going on, and soon the news came back.
Feng Jinchen was completely dumbfounded.
It turns out that Mo Qian brought Wu Yaoyao back to the capital not to reunite her with her family, but to take her back for trial.
Only then did he realize that Wu Yaoyao was the offspring of a rapist.
It was an illegitimate child.
Mo Qian naturally hated this daughter to the core and publicly announced that she would not acknowledge her as her daughter, stripping Wu Yaoyao of her inheritance rights and kicking her out.
With this, Mo Qian's only stain was gone, and she could be considered to have firmly secured her position as president.
No one can challenge her position as the head of the Mo family conglomerate.
Feng Jinchen felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through his mind. He was depressed for a long time before finally finding a glimmer of hope.
Blood is thicker than water. If Mo Qian softens her heart and wants to acknowledge Wu Yaoyao again someday, he can just go and take back the Mo family shares that belong to him.
Mo Qian assigned Mo Yang and other members of the Mo family who were dissatisfied with her and harbored disloyal intentions to subsidiaries around the world, keeping them away from the center of power struggles, which can be considered as completely eliminating a major threat.
Feeling carefree, Mo Qian was distracted at work for the first time. The image of a girl's expectant eyes kept appearing in her mind, and her mood fluctuated accordingly, with a faint sense of guilt welling up inside her.
In fact, Mo Qian knew very well that Su Xi was more likely her biological daughter.
But since she doesn't acknowledge her daughter, they are still related by blood, and she can't bear to hurt Su Xi, then the person to be judged should be Wu Yaoyao instead.
Wu Yaoyao was naturally unaware that she had been used as a scapegoat and a shield.
Feng Jinchen, of course, had no idea that he was destined never to see the day when Mo Qian would recognize Wu Yaoyao.
only,
The day Mo Qian recognizes Su Xi again...
Feng Jinchen will definitely regret his blindness.
He regretted losing a mountain of gold and silver but picking up a pair of worn-out shoes instead.
Their expressions must have been quite something!
The few days that Wu Yaoyao spent being lavishly welcomed and treated like royalty in Luocheng to the capital felt like a fleeting dream.
When she left, she was at the peak of her life, full of pride and joy, and she was determined to take back everything she had lost.
When he was kicked out, he was as destitute as a beggar and became a rat that everyone wanted to beat.
She finally managed to escape back to Los Angeles and retrieve the property she had hidden beforehand.
It's a whopping eight figures, almost nine.
If this were an ordinary person, they would have been overjoyed, but Wu Yaoyao was not.
It's just a small goal; her vision isn't that narrow or low.
Those of lower social class would never understand that no matter how much money you have, it will eventually run out. Only by completely transcending social classes and becoming a superior person can you have a continuous stream of wealth.
She quickly made a bold decision, a do-or-die gamble, and threw all her money at the company.
Looking for someone!
She wants to find her daughter's biological father, Chen Fan.
It's all or nothing for her. Wu Yaoyao would rather die than live a life of poverty and destitution. If she's going to live, she'll live to be someone of high status.
After spending almost all her money, Wu Yaoyao's eyes turned bloodthirsty and crazed. She would cry and laugh at the same time, teetering on the edge of madness and sanity.
The only thing that sustained her belief was waiting for news from Chen Fan.
Chen Fan's identity is very mysterious; it can't be that quick. Wu Yaoyao gave them a month.
A month later, we'll see whether it's hell or heaven.
As time went by, Wu Yaoyao became increasingly insane.
On this day,
Su Xi suddenly received a call from Grandma Feng, who said she wanted to see her and also her daughter.
Su Xi could tell that the old lady's spirits had declined considerably since losing her husband. She missed the days when her children and grandchildren were around her, and she genuinely missed her. By extension, she also missed her daughter.
Scenes from the past flashed through her mind. No one is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes. Overall, Grandma Feng treated her very well.
Su Xi hesitated for a moment before agreeing, and soon took advantage of the weekend to fly back to China with Nianxi and Aunt Liu.
Feng Hanhai was already in poor health. He thought he had found a long-term meal ticket, but he was unexpectedly rejected when he was old. He lost face and felt aggrieved. Soon he fell ill and became bedridden.
Feng Jinchen sent Feng Hanhai back to his old house, citing his busy work schedule and inconvenience in taking care of him.
Seeing her eldest son bedridden every day, the old lady was naturally in a bad mood, and her hair turned completely white.
The moment she saw Su Xi appear carrying Nian Xi, her eyes lit up, shining brightly. She grinned with her toothless mouth, her eyes narrowing into slits, and she wobbled as she ran towards Su Xi.
Su Xi's eyes welled up with tears, and she quickly went to greet the old lady. After helping the old lady sit down, she placed Xiao Nianxi in the old lady's arms without hesitation.
Looking at the tiny, soft buns that looked like little glutinous rice balls, the old lady was even happier, and then she started to cry.
Holding Nianxi in one arm and pulling Su Xi with the other, he repeatedly apologized.
Su Xi felt a pang of sadness, but she held it back and smiled, "Grandma, life is short, let's think about happy things and cherish the people in front of us."
The old lady burst into laughter through her tears, and said reproachfully, "You're not that old, but you have a lot of wisdom."
The old lady stopped being sad and took out a rattle drum that Feng Jue had played with when he was a child to amuse Feng Nianxi. Feng Nianxi actually had a lot of fun playing with it.
Su Xi smiled sincerely as well.
Do you know whose toy this is?
Su Xi was taken aback and shook her head.
“A-Jue’s.”
Su Xi paused.
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat subtle.
Grandma Feng sighed, and just as she was about to say something, a series of chaotic footsteps suddenly rushed in.
The maid looked completely panicked.
"Oh no, Grandma, oh no, something's happened!"
