Chapter 479: Internal Fighting among the Wealthy
This is also the voice of the people.
It's just that as an adult, it's hard to say it to someone's face.
They looked at each other.
As the oldest, Lin Su'e reached out and touched her granddaughter's hair: "Let nature take its course."
Zhao Baozhu blinked in confusion.
The child is still young~
She started school early and now she is only 16 years old and already a sophomore in college.
Lin Su'e didn't say anything else. She raised her head and looked in the direction where Zhao Zhenyi and Mu Yao left, as if she wanted to see something through the wall.
The other side.
Zhao Zhenyi's bedroom.
The two stood face to face, no one spoke, and the atmosphere became stagnant.
It was Mu Yao who broke the deadlock first: "Brother, I'll call my cousin right now."
Zhao Zhenyi nodded silently.
She dialed the number and the other party picked up quickly. Mu Yao turned on the speaker and placed it between the two of them.
I only heard a pleasant female voice: "Yaoyao, is there anything else?"
Mu Yao: "Cousin, my senior brother has to go to Hong Kong City for something urgent, he will be the day after tomorrow..."
He looked at Zhao Zhenyi inquiringly.
Zhao Zhenyi replied: "3 o'clock in the morning."
Mu Yao gestured and took over the conversation: "He will arrive in Shenzhen at 3 am the day after tomorrow. Do you know of a reliable ship that can take him there?"
The other party did not hesitate: "That's easy."
"Give me the name of your senior brother, and then go to the dock to find a man called Brother Snake."
Mu Yao: "How to find it?"
"Brother Snake is very famous. Just ask anyone and you will know."
Mu Yao: "Okay, got it."
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "My senior brother's name is Zhao Zhenyi."
This was the first time she called Zhao Zhenyi by his full name. Usually, she called him "Senior Brother" or "Senior Brother Zhao".
Aside.
When Zhao Zhenyi heard her calling his name, he inexplicably felt a little tender, his ears felt slightly hot, and he tried to remain calm.
There was a cry of surprise from the other end of the phone: "Zhao Zhenyi, this is not you..."
Hearing this, Mu Yao's face changed drastically, and before she could finish speaking, she hung up the phone with a snap.
Zhao Zhenyi looked at her in surprise.
Mu Yao explained in a panic: "Hahaha, I accidentally, accidentally died."
Zhao Zhenyi's eyes were deep, and he didn't say much. He nodded and said, "Do you want to call again?"
Mu Yao shook her head: "No need."
"Anyway, we already know what we need to know."
Zhao Zhenyi: “That’s right.”
The atmosphere fell into silence again.
Mu Yao smiled very fakely: "Brother, pack your luggage first, I won't bother you anymore."
Zhao Zhenyi nodded slightly.
She turned and left.
Step by step, very slowly.
After this separation, perhaps there is no possibility for them to be together again. She is reluctant to let go and wants to keep this precious time alone, even if this time alone is only because of her love rival's accident.
Behind.
Zhao Zhenyi said: "Wait!"
Mu Yao turned back suddenly.
When their eyes met, Zhao Zhenyi said from the bottom of his heart: "Yaoyao, thank you."
Mu Yao smiled faintly and shook her head, her eyes hooked, and her tone was earnest: "Brother, you must come back safely."
Zhao Zhenyi promised earnestly: "I will."
Mu Yao called out again: "Senior Brother..."
Zhao Zhenyi's heart skipped a beat, but he looked at her expressionlessly.
Mu Yao opened her mouth again and again, and finally uttered a sentence: "If you have any difficulties, you can tell my name and ask my cousin for help."
She wanted to confess her feelings just now, but hesitated when the words came to her lips. At least, as his junior sister, she could always stand by his side.
Hearing this.
Zhao Zhenyi looked at her deeply and nodded slightly.
He could see that Mu Yao wanted to say something to him, and he also guessed a little, but fortunately, she didn't say it out loud.
He really didn't know how to answer!
Now that Xu Mo was in trouble, he was very confused and had no time to think about the relationship between men and women.
…
Early morning.
At Zhao Zhenyi's insistence, only Lu Chengjun drove him to the train station.
the next day.
Lin Su'e and others had to set off for Hai City.
TRAIN STATION.
Lin Su'e looked at Mu Yao: "Yaoyao, are you really not going to go to Hai City with us?"
Mu Yao shook her head: "Aunt Lin, my mother has a first birthday party for my cousin's child, I have to go back."
"You guys have fun."
Actually, it’s not.
She just didn't want to see the scene of Zhao Zhenyi and Xu Mo reconciling, so she left in embarrassment and tried to cover up her mistake.
Lin Su'e: "Okay."
"Then be careful on the road, and remember to call me when you arrive."
Mu Yao nodded.
Her train was an hour late, so she stood on the platform and watched them leave.
Lin Su'e and her group all had sleeper berths, occupying 5 compartments: the families of her eldest and second brothers, Wang Bowen's family, and their entire family.
Lin Su'e, Zhao Zhenli, Chen He and Zhao Zhenxin shared a box.
Sitting next to Lin Su'e, Zhao Zhenxin stretched his neck to look at Mu Yao, stroking his chin and said, "Mom, do you think Sister Mu Yao is really going to attend the full moon banquet? She has clearly already booked a train ticket to Hai City. Something is wrong, something is extremely wrong..."
He swears by his professionalism as an actor.
Hearing this, Lin Su'e raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, thinking: This boy is quite sensitive, he deserves to be discovered to act since he was young~
She said, "Sister Muyao doesn't want to go. It's no big deal. She's already participated in one anyway."
Zhao Zhenxin: “…Oh.”
…
On the evening of the 3rd, the group arrived at Hai City.
The man was fully responsible for the wedding this time, so Lin Su'e was free.
However, she was uneasy and was always thinking about the second brother. She had no contact information and could only wait for him to call her.
Wait and wait~
The wedding on the 5th was completed.
Wait and wait~
Zhao Fenglan and her husband went on their honeymoon.
Wait and wait~
Lin Su'e returned to Shuikou Village, and the other children went to work and school.
Wait and wait~
Just when she was completely unable to sit still, on the afternoon of October 8, she received a call from Zhao Zhenyi.
"Hey, second brother!"
"Is Xiaomo with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Mo's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Aunt Lin, I'm here. I'm sorry for making you worry about me."
"As long as you are safe."
Lin Su'e asked a series of questions: "Xiaomo, you weren't bullied, were you? You weren't hurt, were you?"
Xu Mo felt warm in his heart: "I'm fine, thanks to Zhao Zhenyi for coming to rescue me in time."
Lin Su'e was very curious: "What happened? How did Zhao Zhenyi save you?"
Xu Mo slowly explained: "This is what happened..."
It turns out that this was not a simple business crisis or an act of marriage to resolve the crisis, but a conspiracy of Xu Mo's stepmother.
This kind of conspiracy has a professional term in later TV dramas: internal strife among wealthy families.
The cause was a dispute over succession. Originally, Xu Mo's stepmother did not take her seriously, but she did not expect that she would develop "Wan Guoyuan" into a leading company in just a few years and won the victory in one fell swoop.
How could she possibly accept her family's failure?
So, she came up with a crooked idea, which was to cooperate with the second young master of the Li family. She made some moves to enrich herself and cause problems for the family business. When Xu Tiancheng was in a desperate situation, she asked him to express his love for Xu Mo, propose marriage and be willing to lend a helping hand. As a result, Xu Tiancheng chose to sacrifice Xu Mo to save the business.
