Chapter 1521: He Is My Son (94)

The junior secretary paused and shook her head, saying, “Not very well but I know who he is. What’s up?”

Mo Xicheng hesitated and finally asked, “Does he not get along with Mo Zhi?”

There must be a reason why Gao Feng was so kind to him, and even giving him advice all the time. He had to get to the bottom of this.

He had to develop some trusted allies in the company if possible, and Gao Feng didn’t seem like a bad choice.

If he was someone who Mo Zhi had suppressed, then he would be the ideal person to attract to his side.

But unexpectedly, the junior secretary said at once, “How would that be possible? Everyone in the office knows that Gao Feng is especially protective of Senior CEO Mo. In the past, whenever people objected to CEO Mo’s ideas in the meetings, Director Gao would speak up for him. He has taken care of CEO Mo meticulously ever since CEO Mo stepped into the business. But later on, Senior CEO Mo- Anyway, later on they grew further apart but still, Director Gao would not go against CEO Mo.”

Mo Xicheng had not expected this answer. He paused and probed further, “Why?”

“Because Director Gao and Senior CEO Mo’s mother, Madam Li Shu, are on very good terms. We heard that they were childhood sweethearts and grew up going to the same school. Oh, and he is on very good terms with Chairman Mo Hai as well.”

Then, the junior secretary looked around to ensure there was no one within hearing range. She quickly shut the door and walked up to Mo Xicheng to whisper, “Do you remember the time Senior CEO Mo made a big blunder? Back then, the board of directors suggested bringing you in and there were some fierce debates. Someone suggested that having you around would serve to motivate Senior CEO Mo, so that he knows there is compet.i.tion and he can’t just do as he likes in the company. When Chairman Mo was hesitating and couldn’t quite make up his mind, it was Director Gao who spoke up and opposed it firmly. And that was how Mo Zhi managed to maintain his position.”

The secretary twitched her mouth and continued, “Everyone knows that Gao Feng is Mo Zhi’s watchdog. Hmph, in the past, before CEO Mo came into the company, Director Gao was ok. He was fair in business and was well-regarded in the company. But the moment Mo Zhi stepped in, he started to s.h.i.+eld the man’s shortcomings and sometimes even had to clean up the mess he makes. Really, I’m speechless.”

Mo Xicheng widened his eyes as he looked at the junior secretary and asked, “So it’s impossible that Gao Feng would object to Mo Zhi?”

“For sure he would have objections, but for the sake of Madam Li Shu, he would defend CEO Mo. That’s why CEO Mo, I’m telling you, I think Director Gao has been trying to suck up to you. He could be trying to mislead you so that he can get certain information from you for Senior CEO Mo’s benefit.”

Mo Xicheng could not help laughing aloud when he heard this. It looked like everyone around there had a really active imagination.

But was Gao Feng… really such a person?

Mo Xicheng recalled the few times that he had dealt with the man. His instinct and intuition told him it wasn’t so.

He waved at the junior secretary and said, “Alright, you may leave now.”

After the secretary left, he also did so and headed down the building.

As he was driving out of the parking, he suddenly caught sight of Li Shu and Gao Feng ahead. They were standing there, having a conversation.
