Chapter 1516: He Is My Son (89)

Right now, Mo Zhi was seriously nervous.

While he knew that Mo Xicheng bore the responsibility for the original deal falling through, if Director w.a.n.g’s representative left now, then it would be clear to everyone that he was the one who hadn’t let the receptionist speak.

He turned to look at the receptionist angrily and rebuked her, “What on earth are you doing? How could you leave such an important guest in the meeting room? Hurry up, take me to him!”

Full of grievance, the receptionist retorted, “CEO Mo, it was you who wouldn’t let me speak.”

Mo Zhi: …

The man snorted and turned to look at the people in the meeting room. Then he quickly walked out.

After Mo Zhi left, Mo Xicheng lowered his gaze and stood up immediately.

He looked at everyone in the meeting room and then, without another word, walked out the door.

For sure, the meeting had ended.

Everyone started to file out of the room.

Mo Xicheng had barely taken a few steps when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind, “Mo Xicheng.”

He halted and turned around. Gao Feng was walking towards him, looking at him with a stunned expression. At once, he said, “You- you have something personal against Director Li?”

Since he could sense that Gao Feng had now taken a new perspective on things and looked concerned, Mo Xicheng contemplated it carefully for a moment and then replied, “Liu Liu was my friend.”

Having said this, he nodded at the older man and continued to walk away.

Gao Feng stood rooted to the ground. Liu Liu again.

Who was this Liu Liu?

As he stood there wondering, his a.s.sistant walked up to him and said, “Mr. Gao, I’ve found out about Liu Liu. The fact is this…”

After hearing the story from his a.s.sistant, a troubled expression appeared on Gao Feng’s face.

He paused for a moment, then sighed deeply and mumbled, “Really, one can’t ignorethe power of genes.”

The a.s.sistant asked, “What was that?”

“Although Mo Xicheng was brought up by a mistress, look at his every move. Do you know that he accepted the project with Director Li and prepared well just to teach the man a lesson? And he must have sealed the deal with Director w.a.n.g much earlier on. So all of this was but a part of his plan. Do you not see how hard Mo Zhi has been slapped in the face? The senior management staff have started to look at Mo Zhi in a different light.”

At this point, Gao Feng exclaimed, “This Mo Xicheng is not like a blockhead son of a mistress at all, on the contrary, he is very much like Li Shu! And looking at Mo Zhi now, he is like a clown. The son of Li Shu… he’s not simple at all.”

The a.s.sistant couldn’t help but smile. “No matter what, he’s young after all. Oh, Director Gao, a call for you.”

Gao Feng nodded and took the cell phone from his a.s.sistant. He smiled when he saw the caller ID. “Li Shu, I have good news for you. Your son…”

–

Mo Xicheng walked ahead and, as he neared the meeting room, he saw Mo Zhi smiling broadly at the guests, as though trying hard to please. “I’m so sorry, our receptionist was ignorant and didn’t inform us fully, so we’ve kept you waiting. But do stay for the afternoon, I’ll host you and buy lunch for everyone, is that alright?”

The guests hesitated when they heard this and spoke up, “CEO Mo, Director w.a.n.g has sent us to sign the agreement. However, it’s supposed to be with Mo Xicheng. I don’t think… this is right?”
