Not long after, things came to light.
The original document was a land development plan that the Mo Group agreed to.
However, a construction team soon unearthed an ancient tomb beneath that plot of land!
As a result, all the funds invested by the Mo Group in the early stage were wasted, not to mention that due to tight cash flow, other plans within the group were also shelved.
At this time, the Mo family...
"What happened? I've only just handed the company over to you, and such a huge blunder has already occurred!" The original owner's father, Mo Jing, shouted angrily.
His voice carried a hint of anger.
"Dad, I never expected it to turn out like this."
"Who knew there was an ancient tomb down there!" Mo Yan argued with an unpleasant expression, his voice tinged with grievance.
“Developing land is such a big deal, why didn’t you consult with others before making the decision on your own?”
Upon hearing Mo Yan's words, Mo Jing's expression did not improve at all; on the contrary, she became even angrier.
Then, with a furious expression, he shouted angrily, his face flushed red with rage.
“I…I thought that if this land was developed, the company could take a step forward. It was a rare opportunity, so I didn’t discuss it with anyone.”
Upon hearing Mo Jingdi's words, a hint of guilt flashed across Mo Yan's face, and he then made up some nonsense.
After the incident came to light, Mo Yan recalled the previous events and realized that he had hastily signed the development plan on that occasion.
Thinking back to that woman from that time, Mo Yan sent people to look for her, but they couldn't find her.
Only then did he realize that he might have been set up.
Because he was primarily responsible for the incident, he was afraid of being scolded by his father and dared not reveal the real reason.
"Is it so easy to rise?! With such a huge flow of funds, you just made the decisions on your own?!"
"If this hadn't come to light, I wouldn't have known!" Mo Jing said angrily.
"Dad, stop scolding me! What are we going to do next?!" Mo Yan said irritably after hearing Mo Jingdi's words. His voice was tinged with impatience.
"Now you know you've caused trouble, and you'll have to make someone clean up the mess!" Mo Jing's face was extremely ugly, and his voice was several octaves louder because he was so angry.
"Old Mo, don't rush to scold him now. Let's resolve the current predicament first," the original owner's stepmother said anxiously.
His face looked equally pale. His voice held a hint of worry.
"It's all your fault! I knew I shouldn't have let you take over." Mo Jing said angrily to Mo Yan after hearing the original owner's stepmother's words.
His voice was filled with deep regret.
Upon hearing Mo Jing's words and seeing Mo Jing's angry expression, Mo Yan didn't dare to add fuel to the fire.
Instead, he sat on the sofa with a sullen and dejected expression.
When Mo Jing saw Mo Yan, who was utterly dejected and lacked any ambition, a deep disappointment flashed in his eyes.
After that, Mo Jing ignored Mo Yan and instead actively tried to raise money to get other projects in the company running.
Otherwise, we're losing money every day, and we simply can't afford to delay any longer.
Mo Jing first thought of taking out a mortgage loan from the bank, but because there was already a loan that had not been repaid, the bank did not lend money to the Mo family this time.
After failing to get help from the bank, Mo Jing tried to borrow some money from her previous business partners, but they all refused.
After encountering setbacks at every turn, Mo Jing first sold some of his real estate properties and invested the proceeds into the group.
But it's still a drop in the ocean.
This time, things were far less fortunate than when Mo Jing was young.
When Mo Jing was young, he could raise a sum of money through marriage.
However, because Mo Yan's reputation in the industry is not very good, and he has many female confidantes, he can't find anyone to marry into the family.
With all methods failing, the Mo Group quickly declared bankruptcy!
At this time, the Mo family was living in a cramped three-bedroom house, which was nothing compared to their previous large villa.
Because of the bankruptcy, Mo Jing, who should have been enjoying his retirement, now has to worry about living expenses every day.
Since going bankrupt, Mo Yan has stopped going out and having fun as before, and instead stays in his room all day.
He dreamt of getting rich.
Because of this, I met some people online and came into contact with some information about gambling sites.
Later, encouraged by those people online, Mo Yan went to an underground gambling den in the city.
At first, Mo Yan won a few times and was very excited.
And because of this, Mo Yan's mood improved a lot during those few days.
He didn't seem that impatient when he heard Mo Jing arguing with him.
However, his good fortune didn't last long. When Mo Yan went to the casino to gamble later, he suffered repeated losses, losing all the money he had won earlier.
Driven by greed, Mo Yan, at the urging of others, borrowed money from the casino.
But his luck didn't improve after that. He borrowed some more money, but still couldn't turn things around.
After Mo Yan regained his senses, he was told that he owed three million yuan.
If you don't pay, one of your legs will be cut off!
Mo Yan must repay the debt within ten days!
After hearing what the casino staff said, Mo Yan broke out in a cold sweat.
Afterwards, he hurriedly left the casino, his mind elsewhere, a hint of panic on his face.
I jogged all the way home.
After returning home, Mo Yan tearfully complained to Mo Jing, looking utterly dejected.
"Dad, please save me! I promise I'll never do it again!" Mo Yan rushed forward and hugged Mo Jingdi's leg. His voice was filled with fear.
"What's wrong? What did you do again?" Mo Jing's heart skipped a beat when he heard Mo Yan's words, and his face turned ugly. Then he said in a harsh tone.
"Dad, someone set me up. I owe the casino three million. If I don't pay it back, I'll lose my leg," Mo Yan said, tears streaming down his face. His voice was filled with anxiety.
"Who told you to gamble!" Upon hearing Mo Yan's words, Mo Jing nearly fainted, but managed to recover by pinching her palms hard. She then angrily shouted at Mo Yan.
"Dad, please help me. If you don't help me, I'm doomed," Mo Yan said immediately after hearing Mo Jingdi's words.
There was a hint of shrillness in his voice.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have let her have the baby!" Mo Jing felt a pang of regret upon seeing Mo Yan's current state, her face showing remorse and exhaustion.
Not only did he not get to enjoy his old age, but his company went bankrupt, and now he can't even keep this place that shelters him from the wind and rain!
Upon hearing Mo Yan's words, the original owner's stepmother, whose eyes were already red from crying, couldn't help but slap Mo Yan on the back.
"What a tragedy!" The voice was filled with resentment and despair!
