The two argued endlessly over this little thing. In the end, Lin Mo asked Zhang Xiang to leave on the pretext of having a meeting, and promised her that he would prepare a "big gift" for Su Nan as soon as possible.
After Sun Mo returned to Hongyue, he made some arrangements and finally found out the truth of the incident.
After returning to the office, he hurriedly contacted Zhou Rang: "Brother Zhou, I'm afraid this situation of yours is going to be difficult to handle!"
Zhou Rang was shocked. Could it be that the Lin family was really causing trouble?
"Brother Sun, what have you found out?"
Sun Mo didn't expect Zhou Rang to be able to face this matter so calmly. When he asked him about it, his voice didn't even tremble. This young man was indeed a material that could do great things, but it was a pity that he had to deal with such a thing.
"Brother Zhou, what is the grudge between you and the Lin family? They actually spread rumors about you in Jing City, saying that you are rich but unkind, selling inferior products as good ones, and selling poisonous cosmetics to customers..." Sun Mo told Zhou Rang everything he had heard.
It really is like that! Lin Mo, you can do it!
"Brother Sun, thank you for your help. I know what to do about this matter. I'll ask you for help once I find a way to resolve the rumors." Zhou Rang hung up the phone and fell into deep thought.
The next day was Wednesday, and Su Nan and her classmates only had half a day of classes, so she and Chen Jie went back to the store.
She originally thought that Zhou Rang had returned to Shanghai, but as soon as she opened the door of the lounge, she saw Zhou Rang sitting in a chair in a daze.
"Oh my God! Why don't you make a sound? Do you want to scare me to death?" Su Nan patted his chest and complained.
Zhou Rang looked at Su Nan a little tiredly, then stood up and approached her, holding her tightly in his arms, like a big golden retriever that had been wronged.
Su Nan immediately noticed Zhou Rang's abnormality and her voice became extremely gentle: "Lao Qi, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Rang didn't say anything, but held Su Nan's hand even tighter.
Su Nan complained silently in her heart: Oh my god! This is too scary. If you use a little more force, you can break my waist.
"Old man, I can't breathe. Can you tell me what's wrong with you? What happened?" Su Nan spoke calmly with patience.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have hidden it from you. I shouldn't have thought that I could handle everything." Zhou Rangtu finally spoke, but the result was an inexplicable apology. This move would never work for Su Nan again.
Su Nan scratched his head, confused: What was going on? Could it be that he was possessed in broad daylight?
"Old man, can you please tell me what you want to say? Don't scare me like that. What exactly happened?" Su Nan asked worriedly.
The grudge between Zhou Rang and Lin Mo couldn't be explained in a few words. At this moment, he thought of what Chang Yelin had said to him: "A woman isn't necessarily angry because of your so-called bad behavior, but more often because of the past you've concealed from her."
So he is now ready to reveal all the grievances between himself and the Lin family, so that Su Nan can be more wary of those two people.
"Nannan, you must be careful of Lin Mo and Zhang Xiang. My suspicions are not groundless. Listen to me and I will explain it to you slowly."
Su Nan broke free from Zhou Rang's arms and sat obediently on the chair, listening to Zhou Rang talk about some of his past experiences.
"Lin Mo's maternal grandparents and my family used to be close, and we lived very close to each other, so we often visited each other. Lin Mo's maternal grandparents often compared me with them, and over time, our relationship went from being friends to being competitors."
From Zhou Rang, Su Nan learned about the complicated situation in Lin Mo's family.
The eldest and second branches of the Lin family are more powerful, while the third branch, which is Lin Mo's father's branch, is relatively weak.
In fact, the Lin family made their fortune with the help of women. The wives of the eldest and second wives were all ladies from prominent families, and their families had influence in both the black and white worlds. That was why Lin Mo's grandfather looked down on Lin Mo's father.
However, his daughter insisted on marrying him, and he had no choice but to threaten her with severing the father-daughter relationship. Unexpectedly, she was so determined that she had to be with Lin Mo's father.
Later, Lin Mo's mother died of illness when he was seven or eight years old. From then on, the lives of Lin Mo and his son became increasingly difficult.
In order to prevent him from suffering with himself, Lin Mo's father sent him to be raised by his maternal grandfather, and only returned to the Lin family after the old man passed away.
At that time, Mr. Lin was also dying, so the first and second branches of the Lin family came up with a trick to trap Lin Mo's father, falsely accusing him of being an enemy of the people who had embezzled the funds.
Lin Mo, who was desperate, knew that the Zhou family had a certain influence in the military, and remembered that he and Zhou Rang had a friendship since childhood, so he asked him for help.
At that time, Zhou Rang readily agreed, but because he couldn't stand some of his elder brother's behavior, he quarreled with him, so Zhou Qian got angry and no longer cared about it, which led to Lin Mo's father being unable to bear the torture and had to die to express his determination.
Since then, Lin Mo began to secretly hate Zhou Rang. He felt that his father's death and the life he led in the Lin family that was worse than pigs and dogs were all caused by Zhou Rang.
From that time on, Lin Mo kept competing with Zhou Rang maliciously, from big things like company projects to small things like food, clothing, housing and transportation. As long as Zhou Rang had something, he would always try his best to snatch it from him.
At first, Zhou Rang felt that he had wronged him too much, so he tolerated him everywhere. Later, Lin Mo's behavior became more and more excessive, and Zhou Rang could no longer tolerate it and had to fight back. The feud between the two became deeper and deeper.
In the end, the Lin family felt that Lin Mo was just like his dead father, a hopeless case, and drove him abroad for further studies. Only then did the two stop fighting.
After hearing this, Su Nan felt that Zhou Rang was innocent. She quickly hugged him and comforted him, saying, "This incident has nothing to do with you. It's clearly his own extreme thinking."
"Don't worry, I will be careful with those two people in the future. But you must be more careful than me. You said that when your company ran into trouble last time, was it possible that he was behind it?" Su Nan recalled the situation that Zhou had caused in his company some time ago and asked hurriedly.
Zhou Rang calmly shook his head. "I'm not sure. So far, we've only found a few people who were responsible for accepting bribes. They're very tight-lipped, so I can't get anything out of them. I can only ask them to spit out the money they swallowed..."
Su Nan felt that this incident must be related to Lin Mo, and he must have come back this time to seek revenge on Zhou Rang.
"It's important to be on guard against others. You'd better return to Shanghai as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble there."
