The smile in mo shenbai’s eyes deepened. &Quot; do you want to make a bet? ”
“What?”
&Quot; if she lowers her head and apologizes … &Quot; mo shenbai lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his voice so low that only the two of them could hear.
Xu Youyou’s face turned red and she glanced at him with eyes full of anger.
***
At seven o ‘clock in the evening, mo shenbai and Xu Youyou had dinner. The heavy rain outside showed no signs of stopping.
After mo shenbai asked the servant to bring a plate of fruit, Fu Anbang walked in with Fu ning.
It was raining heavily. Although the two of them were holding an umbrella, their clothes were still wet. Because they had been standing for a long time without eating, their faces were pale and Haggard, and they could not hide the fatigue between their brows.
Mo shenbai held a fruit plate and sent the fruit with a golden fork to Xu Youyou’s lips.
Fu Anbang’s gaze fell on Xu Youyou first, then on mo shenbai.
He had met mo shenbai once at a business cocktail party a few years ago. Because the relationship between the two families was awkward, he had not gone up to greet this young man at that time.
At that time, the mo Corporation had just recovered from its near-death state. Although the young leaders had a sense of alienation, they were still a little childish compared to those sly old foxes who were involved in the business world.
Now, besides the coldness between his brows, there was also a restrained ambition and strength.
Fu ning watched as Xu Youyou sat beside mo shenbai like a little bird, and a hint of disdain flashed across her eyes, but no one noticed it.
Fu Anbang had been complimented by people for most of his life, but now he had to lower his head in front of a junior. &Quot; President mo, long time no see. &Quot;
Mo shenbai’s handsome features were calm. He didn’t even look at him and continued to feed Xu Youyou fruit. &Quot; are oranges sweet? ”
Xu Youyou nodded. &Quot; it’s very sweet. &Quot;
The smile on Fu Anbang’s face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered and greeted Xu Youyou. &Quot; you must be Mrs. Mo. You’re a match made in heaven with President mo. You two are a perfect match. &Quot;
Xu Youyou raised her head and looked at the man with a hunched back in front of her. He was a little fat, his eyes were cloudy and deep, and his face was full of years of hardships.
Mo shenbai followed her gaze and looked at Fu Anbang. He asked calmly, ” President Fu, what’s the matter? ”
Seeing that he finally reacted, Fu Anbang secretly heaved a sigh of relief and immediately said, ” previously, my daughter was young and ignorant and offended President mo. I’ve specially brought her here today to apologize to you. I also have a small gift for her, I hope President mo doesn’t mind. &Quot;
He placed the box he was carrying on the coffee table.
Xu Youyou glanced at the packaging. It seemed to be tea leaves. This apology gift seemed a little unsightly!
Mo shenbai glanced at him indifferently and didn’t say anything. He didn’t even look at the tea leaves he had put on the table.
Fu Anbang quickly gave Fu ning a warning look.
Fu ning wasn’t convinced, but she had no choice but to lower her head and apologize to her father. &Quot; President mo, I was bewitched by second aunt and did something stupid. I know I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and don’t stoop to my level! &Quot;
Xu Youyou furrowed her brows. She had really apologized!
She tilted her head and looked at the man beside her in confusion. How did he guess so accurately?
Mo shenbai put down the fruit plate, wiped his hands with a wet tissue, and said casually, ” “Is that so?”
“Yup!” Fu Anbang quickly echoed, ” you know my second sister-in-law. She has a strong personality. That’s why my younger brother and my daughter were bewitched by her! &Quot; I’ve already severely reprimanded her, so do you think we can just put an end to this matter?”
They were determined to push all the blame onto Bai Ying.
This was because Bai Ying was his biological mother!
&Quot; I’ve been in poor health recently, so I’ve handed the company’s matters to President Lu to handle. President Fu seems to have found the wrong person. &Quot; Mo Shen’s white and thick eyelashes were clear.
They could push the blame to Bai Ying, but he could also push the blame to Lu Heyun.
The moment Fu Anbang heard his words, he knew that his apology was useless. Thinking of his life’s work, he suppressed the humiliation in his heart and asked him with his old face.
&Quot; President mo, we’re both open people. I understand that you’re angry about this, but the ansheng group isn’t my own creation. It concerns many other people! They’re all innocent. As long as it can appease you, I’ll do anything!”
Every word he said was sincere and reasonable, and he only hoped that mo shenbai would be magnanimous and let him off.
Xu Youyou also understood what he meant. If the ansheng group was really gone, many people would be laid off.
Her fair little hand gently tugged at Mo Shen’s white sleeve.
Don’t involve innocent people in Bai Ying and Fu ning’s mistakes.
Mo shenbai’s big, warm palm wrapped around her soft, boneless little hand. His thin lips opened slightly. &Quot; I have some friendship with President Jin from city H. Mrs. Jin passed away many years ago, and President Jin has never remarried. Today, I’ll be the moon elder and lead this red string, how about it?”
Fu ning was stunned, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
The president Luo he was talking about was a bald uncle in his forties. He was a nouveau riche who had opened a factory and started his business. He was now involved in real estate, but he was still a nouveau riche in essence. He did not remarry after his wife died, but his private life had always been unclean. He was famous in city H for being a lecherous old man.
Fu Anbang was stunned as well. His eyes were filled with confusion and hesitation. &Quot; President mo, this President Yan … &Quot;
Before he could finish, mo shenbai glanced at him coldly. &Quot; what’s wrong, President Lin? ”
Fu Anbang met mo ting’s eagle-like eyes and a chill ran down his spine. He seemed to understand the meaning in mo ting’s eyes and swallowed the words that were stuck in his throat. With great difficulty, he said, ” then, I’ll have to thank President mo for his kind intentions. &Quot;
Fu ning held her breath and looked at Fu Anbang in disbelief. &Quot; dad, you … &Quot;
She was just about to open her mouth when Fu Anbang sternly interrupted her. &Quot; shut up! Hurry up and thank President mo!”
Fu ning’s pupils kept expanding, and disbelief was written all over his face. He was so angry that his chest was rising and falling.
Mo shenbai didn’t seem to notice Fu ning’s anger. His thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was extremely calm. &Quot; the wedding date has been set. Remember to inform me. I’ll definitely send a generous gift. &Quot;
Fu Anbang forced out a smile and nodded. &Quot; &Quot; alright, I’ll definitely invite President mo to my wedding! &Quot;
&Quot; President Fu, you must be tired after a long day. Go back and rest early. &Quot; Mo shenbai’s indifferent voice ordered him to leave.
&Quot; I won’t disturb President mo then. Mrs. Mo, please rest. &Quot; Fu Anbang tactfully dragged Fu ning away.
Xu Youyou looked incredulous. &Quot; he … He agreed to marry his daughter to that President Chu? ” What kind of person was president Yan? Are you two on good terms?”
That’s not right. If they had a good relationship, why would he introduce such a vicious person like Fu ning?
“I don’t.” Mo shenbai leaned back, no longer as cold as before, and his gaze fell on her small face with a little gentleness. &Quot; I just heard that he’s old and lecherous, and has been drooling over the fu family’s daughter for a long time. &Quot;
