Chapter 1554 - Mo Xicheng Reinstated (27) (1/2)
Shi Nianyao’s heart ached for him when she thought about these things.
She gulped and looked at the man immediately. “Uh huh. Don’t be afraid, I’ll be by your side.”
Mo Xicheng looked at her again and said, “But it will cause you suffering.”
Shi Nianyao was taken aback. “What? What sort of suffering could I possibly face?”
Mo Xicheng hung his head and said, “If people know that you’ve married an illegitimate son, won’t you become a laughing stock?”
Shi Nianyao fumed when she heard this. “Why would they say that?! I was the one who pursued you! Besides, who dares laugh at me? I’ll get my brother and father to make stew with their tongues.”
Mo Xicheng lowered his head at seeing that haughty and arrogant look and started chuckling.
She realized that he was only teasing her.
She laughed at once. At the same time, Mo Xicheng’s desk phone rang.
He picked up the call and heard the receptionist say, “CEO Mo, Director Wang is here. He says there are some gaps in the contract and wishes to confirm them with you. I’ve arranged for you to use the meeting room on the first floor. Will you come downstairs?”
Director Wang was here?
Gaps in the contract?
Could it be that they had not received their funds and thus had decided to come?
Without hesitating, he said, “Alright, I’ll come right away.”
After he hung up, he looked at Shi Nianyao and said, “Wait for me here, I’m going downstairs for a meeting and will be back in a bit.”
Surprised, she asked, “What sort of meeting?”
At this point, shouldn’t he avoid doing anything that would arouse suspicion?
Mo Xicheng explained, “There’s probably some issues with the investment contract. I’ll go and take a look.”
She nodded.
