Chapter 397 The Villain Complains First
Mo Family Villa.
Old Mrs. Mo was listening to the show happily at home, unaware of everything that happened in the company.
“Old Mrs. Mo, Young Master Shengli is here!”
Nanny Wu came to report.
“He should be at work now, what is he doing here?”
Old Mrs. Mo was a little puzzled, but she immediately dismissed the performer and waited for Mo Shengli to come over.
“Mom, did Jinrong say anything to you?”
Mo Shengli didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
Old Mrs. Mo was stunned.
“He didn’t say anything. What happened? Aren’t you supposed to be at work? What’s wrong?”
“Mom, Jinrong and I had a fight today, it was my fault.”
“What happened? Why did you guys start fighting?” Old Mrs. Mo asked with concern.
“In the past decade or so, I have grown used to seeing human nature. To be honest, I was a little guarded against Anran, so I got people to monitor her movements outside her house. In the past, I had girlfriends, but they always thought I was rich and ran away with my money. I was afraid Jinrong would be hurt, so I sent someone over to monitor her. When Jinrong found out, he threw a tantrum and said I shouldn’t have done this. I’m doing this for his sake, why doesn’t he understand?”
“Shengli, if you want my opinion on this, you were wrong. You probably don’t know Anran well, she is a good child, she is beautiful and smart. Most importantly, she is loyal to Jinrong. Her family owns a hospital and she is well-matched with our Mo Family. She wouldn’t be interested in Jinrong’s money, so you don’t have to send anyone to monitor her. It wouldn’t be a good outcome. I know you suffered a lot outside and became very careful, but now that you’re back, you don’t have to be so careful anymore. Jinrong is still young and doesn’t understand, so I’ll talk to him.”
Old Mrs. Mo wasn’t angry, she just thought that he might not be used to the environment and people in the house, as he had just returned.
“Mom, Jinrong doesn’t want me to interfere with the company’s matters. I think he just has some opinions about me that are different from when he was a child. I’m just an empty shell in the company with a title that isn’t real. He doesn’t let me do anything and I stay in the company with nothing to do. Those employees are mocking me for being a fake Emperor and spreading rumors that the members of the Mo Family are not on good terms. I’m doing this for the good of the Mo Family.”
When Mo Shengli started to gossip, Old Mrs. Mo’s expression changed. “Who said we don’t get along? Those people in the company only know how to gossip. Don’t listen to their nonsense. As for your rights in the company, Changwen held this position when he was around. You said that you were a stockbroker, but you probably don’t have a thorough understanding of the company’s operations. I’ll get Jinrong to take care of you. After you familiarize yourself with the business world, he will arrange a good position for you to show your skills in.” Old Mrs. Mo had a plan. Mo Changwen didn’t have the ability to manage the company back then, so Jinrong would only give him an empty title. Mo Shengli wouldn’t know a thing either, so it was for the best that he took over Mo Changwen’s position.
Although Mo Shengli didn’t say anything, he was still dissatisfied. He had always felt that Old Mrs. Mo was biased towards this biological grandson of hers and had reservations about him, her illegitimate son, but he still had a smile on his face.
“Mom, I’m different from Changwen. Changwen isn’t good at business and I’ve been in the business world for so many years, making a lot of money with my stocks. This proves that I have talent in business and Jinrong is now in control of the company. I am his uncle after all, so it would be embarrassing to have to ask him for help in everything I do.
I made a decision today and didn’t report it to him, but he shouted at me. I’m his uncle after all, so it’s embarrassing for me.”
Mo Shengli was still complaining about Mo Jinrong. “What decision did you make for him to make such a big fuss? I raised Jinrong single-handedly. Although you weren’t by his side since he was young and you don’t understand him well, I understand him. He’s definitely not that kind of person.”
Old Mrs. Mo knew her grandson the best. He was a well-bred person and would never yell at someone over a small matter.
“He took the liberty of using his authority to cooperate with the Tan and Qin families, but I, the president, didn’t know anything about this. This is an action of overstepping the boundaries. How am I supposed to manage my subordinates in the company? Who exactly is the president? Besides, having to compensate them six times, the compensation isn’t a small sum.
I’ve informed them that I would be holding a shareholder’s meeting to revoke Uncle’s rights. The Mo Corporation is mine and no one can affect my position. If Uncle did his job honestly, I wouldn’t say anything, but Grandma, you know how cunning the other families are. They are already hostile towards us and cooperating with them is just asking for trouble. I don’t know the reason why Uncle is doing this… but I can’t watch you destroy the entire company.” Mo Jinrong suddenly came in from behind.
“You child, what do you mean by I will destroy the entire company? Aren’t I doing this for your sake? Don’t you still have a deal with the Tan Family? Why can’t you cooperate? The Qin Family hasn’t stabilized completely yet, but their abilities can’t be underestimated.
Having more friends is better than having one more enemy. Who has a grudge against money?”
The two of them exchanged words and Old Mrs. Mo was frustrated. “Enough! Do you still respect me? Let me ask you, Shengli, did you really make this decision and not tell Jinrong? This is a big deal. How could you make such a decision when you just came and are not sure of the situation? We were willing to cooperate with the Tan Family because we owed them a favor. Once we returned the favor, the Mo Family would not have anything to do with them.
I’ve heard about Qin Hao’s malicious intentions. This is a big matter, how could you not discuss it with him? You can’t blame Jinrong for being angry. You just need to do your job. Why are you interfering in Jinrong’s matters?
I know you want to help the company, but you don’t know anything. You’ll have to start from the bottom.”
Old Mrs. Mo was in a difficult position.
A big deal like a collaboration couldn’t go beyond the CEO’s own decision. Would a company survive if that happened? “Mom, don’t be angry. I know my mistake, but it’s already happened and there’s nothing I can do about it. I can’t break the contract. The compensation amount is not a small number.”
Mo Shengli looked like he knew his mistake, but deep down, he wasn’t convinced at all.
“You don’t have to worry about this, I’ll call a shareholder meeting to vote soon. Don’t even think about bribing the shareholders. You should go home and speculate on your stocks.”
Mo Jinrong turned to leave.
“Mom, is Jinrong really going to fire me? You have to help me!”
“You’re really worrisome. Go back to your room first, I’ll think about it.”
Old Mrs. Mo didn’t say anything immediately. Although it concerned the company’s life and death, she still remembered their relationship.
