Chapter 554 The Young Master Guessed Correctly
"Xiuchen, do you blame me for bringing Zixuan back in the first place?"
At the beginning, Mo Jingteng brought Mo Zixuan back after being expelled from his home and asked him to go back to work in the company, not only to contain Mo Xiuchen, but also to deal with Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi.
He has been in the shopping mall for decades and is as shrewd as an old fox. When the construction site accident happened, he keenly smelled something unusual and guessed that it might have something to do with Xiao Wenqing.
He didn't really want Mo Zixuan to replace Mo Xiuchen, because he knew better than anyone that Mo Xiuchen was a hundred times better than Mo Zixuan.
MS Group has been his lifelong effort. To develop the company into a leading enterprise in G City and make the Mo family become the largest wealthy family in G City, he has used many unscrupulous methods...
"Xiuchen, I didn't let Zixuan come back to let him take your position. I wanted to deal with Wu Tianyi and Xiao Wenqing."
At this point, Mo Jingteng sighed heavily. He didn't know whether he was really blaming himself or just pretending. His voice was full of apology and self-blame, as if he had aged ten years: "I know, these years, , you have always hated me. Back then, I was obsessed with things, so I was deceived by Xiao Wenqing, which not only caused your mother to jump off the building, but also almost killed you. "
On the sofa, Mo Xiuchen looked extremely cold and indifferent. Whether it was Mo Jingteng's self-blame or his confession, it seemed that it had nothing to do with him, as if he was listening to other people's affairs.
Only the sarcastic coldness at the corner of his mouth never went away.
"Xiuchen, I have been trying to make it up to you all these years. Although you don't appreciate it, I have not forgotten the responsibilities of a father. I let you join the company not because you are a genius in business, but because, You are my son, Mo Jingteng, the eldest son of the Mo family. From the day you entered the company, I have thought about handing the company over to you in the future..."
The more Mo Jingteng spoke, the more excited and guilty he became. Every word was not as ruthless and forceful as before, but with the attitude of a loving father towards his son.
Unfortunately, Mo Xiuchen was not moved by this.
It's not so much that his words were spoken too late, it's more that Mo Xiuchen didn't believe his words at all. When he let him join the company, wasn't it because of his business acumen?
He actually said that he had been trying to make up for it all these years?
Haha, it's really ridiculous. If he wanted to make up for it, how could he turn a blind eye and let Xiao Wenqing harm him again and again and try to kill him.
If he wanted to make amends, how could the three of them live happily in Mo's house and leave him to fend for himself?
If he wanted to make amends, why would he drug his wife...
"Are you done?"
Mo Xiuchen's thin lips pursed in a cold arc, his voice was cold and indifferent, and there was a hint of impatience.
"Xiuchen, I'm done."
Mo Jingteng had been strong all his life, and it was rare for him to let go of his majesty in front of Mo Xiuchen, and just play the role of a father, his voice gentle, with a hint of helplessness and sadness.
"You remember to go to the company tomorrow. I will submit my resignation at the shareholders' meeting."
After Mo Xiuchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

That night, Wen Ran lay on the bed, tossing and turning without feeling sleepy.
Although she was sleeping on a familiar big bed, there was no familiar, warm and broad chest next to her, no that person's clear and mature breath, no his hug, no his arms as pillows.
Wen Ran was enveloped in boundless loneliness and sadness, but the scenes of her and Mo Xiuchen's love and happiness were played in front of her eyes.
In her heart, two selves were split. One was deeply in love with Mo Xiuchen and would not leave him even if she died. The other one was very rational and indifferent and felt that he should not drag on like this any longer and should leave immediately.
The two of them argued and fought all night long, causing her to almost have a schizophrenia.
It wasn't until dawn that she fell asleep exhausted. When she woke up, the sun was shining brightly outside the window, and a beam of golden light came in from the corner of the curtain and hit the wallpaper next to her bed.
Wen Ran yawned, raised her hand, and rubbed her eyes gently, then turned her head and picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table. When she saw the time on the screen, she frowned slightly.
He actually slept so late, it was already ten o'clock.
She washed up and went downstairs. Zhang Ma came out of the kitchen, still wearing an apron. When she saw her, Zhang Ma immediately smiled and said: "Young lady, you woke up just in time. I have already prepared breakfast for you. I plan to Go upstairs and see if you're awake!"
Wen Ran blinked slightly in surprise, probably because she cried last night. Her eyes were a little astringent, but a touch of gentleness appeared between her beautiful brows: "Mother Zhang, why are you making breakfast now?"
At this point, it shouldn't be time to make breakfast. It's time to prepare the ingredients for lunch.
Seeing her surprise, Zhang Ma's smile became even brighter and she explained briskly: "In the morning, the eldest young master said that you were not awake yet and asked me to make breakfast for you later. At about ten o'clock, there was no breakfast." Come to think of it, the young master’s guess is really accurate.”
The uninformed Zhang Ma didn't know that she and Mo Xiuchen slept in separate rooms last night, and Mo Xiuchen didn't show it. Therefore, when he said it in the morning, she thought it was their one last night. Wen Ran was too tired. .
At this moment, when she said these words, the look in Wen Ran's eyes was somewhat ambiguous.
Wen Ran's eyes flashed, and the hand on her side clenched involuntarily. She felt as if she had knocked over a condiment bottle, with mixed feelings.
Last night, Mo Xiuchen was so angry that he even slept in the guest room all night.
Unexpectedly, he was so considerate and asked Zhang Ma to make breakfast for her later.
Could he stop being so nice to her that she would feel so distressed that she couldn't breathe just thinking about leaving him?
"Young lady, you sit down first and I'll bring you breakfast." Zhang Ma said with a smile and turned back to the kitchen.
Wen Ran sat at the dining table alone, eating breakfast alone. It was a delicious breakfast, but it lost its taste because of her mood.
"Young lady, isn't it delicious?"
When Zhang Ma's voice sounded behind him, Wen Ran was startled, and his body trembled. He suddenly raised his head and saw Zhang Ma standing aside. The expression on her face was still confused after being frightened.
"Young lady, did I scare you?"
Upon seeing this, Zhang Ma immediately asked apologetically. Wen Ran twitched the corner of his mouth forcefully, and just as he was about to say something, his cell phone suddenly rang.
She put down the spoon, took out her cell phone with one hand, and wiped her mouth with a tissue with the other hand.
When she saw the caller ID, she paused in wiping her mouth, and pursed her red lips slightly.
Zhang Ma, who was standing next to her, leaned forward. When she saw the incoming call on the screen, she said with a smile, "Madam, I won't disturb you to answer the phone." and quickly left the restaurant.
