Chapter 1490: He Is My Son (62)

Li Shu panicked when she heard his remark. She said, “Old Gao, do you consider me your friend?

Gao Feng paused and replied, “Li Shu, that’s a bit of a serious thing to say. Of course I take you as a friend.”

Li Shu softened her tone and continued, “I have only one son and he was swapped when he was a baby. I had no idea. It is already a miracle that he has grown up safely under the care of the mistress. Old Gao, please don’t place too much pressure on him, is that ok?”

In the end, it was really more like a plea from Li Shu.

Gao Feng opened his mouth and looked as though he was going to say something. Eventually, he sighed and said, “Uhm, I know, I know.”

After he had hung up, the other middle-aged man who had walked in with Gao Feng couldn’t help but sigh as well. “Look at what has become of this whole affair! That woman Yao Lili is scheming indeed, to actually swap babies. It’s no wonder that I couldn’t see a single bit of Li Shu’s integrity in Mo Zhi. So it turns out he’s not even her son.”

Gao Feng nodded. “That’s right. Mo Zhi isn’t the least like Li Shu. But no matter what, Mo Xicheng was brought up by a mistress. She must have tried to ruin him as much as she could. Look at him now, he turned out to be a fool who knows nothing.”

The other man immediately asked, “So what do we do now?”

Gao Feng said with a sigh, “What do we do? What else can we do? In so many years, this is about the only favor Li Shu has ever asked, can we say no? Don’t forget that when the woman was younger, she meant every word she said. For Mo Xicheng’s sake, she’s pleading with us. When she was just admitting defeat, I couldn’t even bring myself to- Argh! What the hell. Even if this Mo Xicheng is a blockhead, we have to support him and get him up to par. We don’t have a choice. It is the one and only favor Li Shu has ever asked of us.”

The other middle-age man nodded.

Gao Feng couldn’t help but add, “Also, even if he is a blockhead, we will just have to work that bit harder to help him watch over the business. Right, and Mo Zhi arranged for him to have a meeting with Director Li tonight. Which hotel is that at again? Go find out and then book me the private room next to theirs.”

“Sure.”

After the meeting, Mo Xicheng walked to his own office.

The Investment Department was just a name. It was a position created by Mo Zhi and Mo Xicheng had no one reporting to him in reality.

They were obviously out to make things difficult for him.

Mo Xicheng narrowed his eyes and smirked. He turned to look at his office, then reached out to pull a chair and sat at one of the workstations outside instead.

His cell phone then rang.

He looked down at the screen. It was a message from Shi Nianyao.

[Are things going well on your first day?]

Going well?

He looked up. He could sense people throwing furtive looks in his direction. They wanted to approach him, but at the same time they were afraid of offending Mo Zhi. Mo Xicheng twitched his mouth helplessly and then looked at his office—an old and shabby room that had yet to be renovated. Then he lowered his head again, showing no expression as he typed out his reply:

[Things are great in the office.]

A response came back from Shi Nianyao shortly after he had sent his message: [“What time do you finish work? Should I pick you up?”]

Mo Xicheng: [No, there’s no need to. I have to entertain tonight.]
