"Oh, oh." Madam Gu nodded as if she understood but not quite. She didn't know much about the business world and only thought that her daughter-in-law wanted to cooperate with the Luo family, after all, her daughter-in-law owned a company.
After exchanging a few more words, Ji Zhinan hung up the phone.
………
Ji Zhinan had just arrived at the company when Xing Minggao and Xing Fei walked in right behind him.
"With the Mu family scandal exposed, their stock price plummeted, and Mu Daxiang is now in a real bind."
Such a huge scandal involving Mu Zeyu would have been easily dismissed under normal circumstances; a little more money could have resolved the matter. However, it was exposed at Mu Zeyu's wedding, in which most of Beijing's elite families were present, causing the Mu family to lose face in high society.
"I heard that Ji Pengfei was just saved. The doctor said that he vomited blood and fainted because he was so angry that he had a heart attack."
The Mu and Ji families are in complete chaos right now; even without Ji Zhinan's intervention, they are too preoccupied with their own problems.
Xing Fei curled her lip: "Serves you right!"
The sins of Heaven may be forgiven, but the sins of oneself are unforgivable!
“I heard from a friend that Ji Zhitian is arguing with Mu Zeyu every day now. On the one hand, Mu Zeyu cheated on her, and on the other hand, it’s about whether or not to have the child.”
Everyone knew that the last woman at the wedding was pregnant with Mu Zeyu's child, and that the child was already four or five months along.
"After the incident, Mu Daxiang's wife, Wu Yan'e, immediately took the woman to the hospital for a DNA test, and the results were expedited. The woman was indeed carrying Mu Zeyu's child. Originally, they didn't plan to keep it, but the woman was carrying a boy..."
In wealthy families, children are the most valued thing.
Mu Zeyu and Ji Zhixia had just gotten married and didn't have any children yet, so Mrs. Mu was still thinking about that child, after all, it was a boy!
Which wealthy family doesn't have an illegitimate child? Madam Mu wants that woman to give birth to the child and then send her away with some money, with the child to be raised by Ji Zhixia, but Ji Zhixia absolutely refuses to agree...
"..." Ji Zhinan had never taken the Mu and Ji families seriously. In her eyes, they were just clowns, people she would tease and amuse herself when she was bored.
Right now, Ji Zhinan still cares most about the Luo family.
Ji Zhinan looked at Xing Minggao and said, "Uncle Xing, do you remember I asked you to look into a charity gala in North America?"
"..." Seeing Ji Zhinan's serious expression, Xing Minggao also withdrew his smile. After thinking for a few seconds in silence, he immediately nodded after remembering, "There is such a thing."
At the time, Ji Zhinan was still in Y country. When he saw Luo, he heard from Madam Gu that she and Luo Ling had met at a charity gala. He then instructed Xing Minggao to investigate. However, due to many things that happened later, and because Ji Zhinan was not sure if the Luo family was related to him, he did not ask Xing Minggao about the follow-up.
"I've been too busy lately, and since you didn't ask me, I forgot to tell you."
Now that Ji Zhinan had asked, Xing Minggao told him what he had found out.
“My friend in North America inquired about the charity gala you mentioned. It’s a very private event, and cell phones are confiscated from everyone who enters.”
This is exactly what Madam Gu said.
As Xing Minggao recalled, he said, "But later my friend also attended that charity gala. Although his phone was also confiscated, the staff at the venue caught someone taking pictures secretly."
(For those who have forgotten the plot, go back to chapter 435. Nan Nan asked Uncle Xing to investigate that auction~~~)
