“Boss, run! Mo Shiting already knows you impersonated him for a marriage registration. He’s coming for you himself.”
“What?!”
Gu Li was abruptly awakened from her sleep by a frantically worried Da Ha. She instantly jumped out of bed.
Heaven and earth are her witnesses, she didn’t mean to offend Mo Shiting. She was just out of options, which forced her to steal his identity document and get someone to impersonate him for marriage.
She thought she could keep this up secretly for a while, then quietly file for a divorce after some time. However, her secret plot got discovered in less than a day, and now the man is knocking on her door.
Danger!
Without even packing, Gu Li hurriedly stuffed her marriage certificate into a small bag, and fled the place under cover of night.
Just as she was leaving the compound, she saw the road ahead was blocked. The glaring headlights blinded her, forcing her to shield her eyes instinctively.
At that moment, a group of sturdy bodyguards quickly surrounded her.
Sigh, seems like she was not escaping after all.
Gu Li stood where she was and involuntarily looked towards the man who alighted from the Rolls Royce not too far away.
He was tall with broad shoulders and long legs, dressed all in cool black. The tail light from the car flashed onto him, making his complexion glow like jade.
No doubt, the man was extremely handsome, but all appreciation left Gu Li the instant her eyes met his cold, intimidating gaze.
“Good evening, Young Master Mo. Didn’t expect to see you so soon again, is this what they call fate? Hehehe.”
Nobody hits a smiling face, the girl squeezed out a sweet smile, exposing her signature eight teeth.
She was adorable and gentle, like a cute pet cat. But, no cat would dare mess with him like she did.
Offensive!
His grim gaze moved away from her pretty face, unemotionally ordering, “Dump her into the sea. Feed her to the fishes.”
“Yes, sir.”
The bodyguards instantly acted upon his command, grabbing hold of Gu Li and slipping her into a sack.
Thinking she was about to die, Gu Li shouted while struggling, “Young Master Mo, I’m sorry. Let’s get the divorce tomorrow if that’s what you want!”
“A divorce is always better than being widowed, Young Master Mo—”
“Mo Shiting, you reckless descendent! Grandfather Mo loves me so much. Are you willing to break his heart if you kill me?”
“Mo Shiting, I literally saved your grandfather’s life. How dare you turn my repayment of kindness into a lash of vengeance—?”
The bodyguards briefly hesitated at her words, at which point Gu Li quickly pulled her head out of the sack, bent her eyes at him, and sweetly said, “Young Master Mo, you are very generous, please forgive me this time.”
The girl’s dazzling smile took Mo Shiting by surprise for a moment.
Realising he was distracted, the man’s exquisite face darkened. He swerved around, and simply started walking away.
The bodyguards didn’t dare to delay, quickly resuming their task of sealing the sack.
In desperation, Gu Li gave her all, and yelled, “Mo Shiting, your life is incomplete without me! Without me, you will grow old and die in loneliness—”
Mo Shiting: “…..”
His temples were throbbing. He finally stopped, turned back, and squinted at her.
Gu Li felt her scalp prickle under his gaze. She wished to scramble back inside the sack but survival instincts drove her to squeeze out a smile that was more painful than weeping.
Mo Shiting’s expression was unchanged. His thin lips were about to move when his aide, Lu Yang, rushed in with news, “Young Master, there is an emergency. The Old Master had a stroke and is in hospital.”
What?!
———-
Mo Family Hospital.
Given the hospitalization of Old Master Mo, the entire VIP floor was reserved.
In a room far from the ward, members of the Mo family, each with their own agendas, were gathered.
The Mo family, has deep roots with extensive accumulation over generations, it is now the head of the Four Major Families in Hua Country.
Old Master Mo, Mo Shiting’s grandfather, Mo Shaoyuan, holds significant weight.
Before Mo Shiting arrived at the hospital, the Old Master had already been declared out of danger.
However, although he was rescued, recovery would take several years, according to the doctor. This gave those with ambitions another chance to snatch Mo Shiting’s position as president.
Sure enough, someone started making moves already.
“Everyone, the first rule of family instruction is that the successor, who is under 30, must form a family before assuming power. Although Shiting was the president before, the control was in the hands of uncle, so we didn’t have much to say. Now that uncle has had a stroke and cannot handle the affairs of the group in the short term, if Shiting continues to serve as president, it will violate the family instruction. I propose holding a meeting and voting again to select the appropriate candidate.”
The one speaking was Mo Shiting’s uncle, Mo Jianming.
They had been suppressed by Mo Shiting for so many years. Now that the day had finally come, how could he give up the opportunity to overthrow Mo Shiting?
As soon as he finished talking, another uncle, Mo Jianyu, immediately added, “Shiting does have ability, but he is only 26. Before the age of 30, if he is not married for a single day, he cannot take on this great responsibility. Mo family cannot be without a leader for a day, so the voting matter is urgent.”
If they could take control of the Mo family, they wouldn’t have to fear Mo Shiting even when he was 30 and eligible for power.
Under the instigation of the two brothers, Mo Jianming, others also began pointing fingers at Mo Shiting.
“That’s right, family mandates should never be violated. Even if Shiting is competent, we have to make him step down.”
“Shiting, don’t blame your uncles and aunts for not supporting you. We’re all part of the Mo family and we should follow the teachings of our ancestors.”
“If there’s anyone to blame, it’s yourself. Why didn’t you find a girlfriend earlier? You know our family has such a mandate.”
“Who could’ve known, who could’ve known…Old Master Mo who was healthy suddenly had a stroke…”.
…
Mo Shiting sat on the sofa, watching the old foxes make their hypocritical comments. He gently knocked on the sofa armrest and asked nonchalantly, “Are you all done talking?”
Most of the people in the room still feared him. When he spoke, they chose to shut their mouths.
Mo Shiting’s deep eyes darkened slightly as he stood up.
In the large room, the natural king’s aura that the man carried spread out, the immense pressure making it difficult for those present to breathe.
They instinctively looked at him and saw him with one hand pocketed, an icy look in his eyes that could freeze a crowd. “Lu Yang!”
“Yes, sir.”
Lu Yang promptly responded.
“Bring her in.”
“…..As you wish.”
Lu Yang bowed and walked out.
Several minutes later, the door opened and a young girl graciously walked in.
Her skin was fair, her face delicate and pretty. Her hair was styled into a bun, and she exuded a refreshing youthful aura.
Who was this girl?
Everyone in the room scrutinized the girl, speculating about her identity.
Gu Li didn’t expect so many people in the room, and was momentarily stunned.
Mo Shiting had kept her in the car, originally trying to find a chance to escape, but then Lu Yang suddenly appeared and brought her here.
