Chapter 470: 469 You can’t do this

Over these years, Mo Xiuchen had gradually taken control of the group, forcing Xiao Wenqing into repeated retreat. Only in her inability to oppose him did he have peaceful days.

If it were not for his marriage to Wen Ran, his weak point, the combined efforts of Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi could not have harmed him.

However, he was ready to let go now, which Luo Haofeng didn’t agree with, especially not at this moment.

Qin Mu’s eyes were heavy, looking at Mo Xiuchen’s indifferent eyes, he spoke calmly: “I think there is some truth in what Ah Feng said, of course, not entirely for that reason.”

Mo Xiuchen furrowed his brows without a word.

“Xiuchen, I understand that you’re worried Wen Ran may eventually learn the truth. You want to resign as CEO and take her away from the disputes in G City, but it’s too sudden. You can’t guarantee Wen Ran won’t be suspicious.”

Not to mention if he gave up everything, he wouldn’t be able to fight against Wu Tianyi. Wen Ran herself was a woman who was thoughtful. If Mo Xiuchen took her away once, it could be explained as a surprise vacation, but how about the second time?

“Xiuchen, I think, Wen Ran will not leave with you.”

After hearing what Qin Mu said, Luo Haofeng also expressed his own view.

Currently, only Xiao Wenqing was caught, Wu Tianyi was still at large. Given the occurrence of Bai Xiaoxiao’s kidnapping, how could Wen Ran possibly elope with Mo Xiuchen, thereby allowing those who would harm those she cares about?

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes glanced over an array of emotions, he said solemnly: “At present, the only person who knows Wu Tianyi’s whereabouts is Xiao Wenqing. The only person who can make Xiao Wenqing speak is Mo Zixuan. If I want to find Wu Tianyi as soon as possible, I must have Mo Zixuan persuade Xiao Wenqing.”

“During your time in Bali Island, Mo Zixuan had already publicly severed ties with Xiao Wenqing in newspaper ads. It’s unlikely that he could persuade her.”

Qin Mu once again detailed to Mo Xiuchen the incidents that had happened in G City these days.

The moment he finished speaking, a knock sounded on the office door.

“Come in!”

Mo Xiuchen calmly called out as he looked up towards the door.

The office door was pushed open from the outside, and Mo Zixuan strode in. He glanced at Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu, and then turned to Mo Xiuchen. “I have completed the tasks you assigned me. Now that you’re back in the office, shouldn’t you fulfill your promise?”

At the words of Mo Zixuan, both Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu snorted disdainfully. Mo Xiuchen’s eyes remained calm, showing no surprise or contempt towards his words.

All he displayed was indifference.

Mo Zixuan came to stand in front of the sofa, but chose not to sit down.

Truth be told, the three men in this room were domineering, especially Mo Xiuchen. In front of him, Mo Zixuan instinctively felt lesser.

Standing up, looking downwards, helped relieve a bit of the oppressive feeling in his heart, and gave him a bit more courage when speaking with him.

“Just now, I was telling Ah Feng and Ah Mu that I intend to resign as CEO and recommend you for the position. But one thing I must remind you of, when I leave, all my people will also leave.”

Mo Zixuan’s face changed drastically after hearing this.

Originally, if Mo Xiuchen and his people left, it would be the best-case scenario.

If Mo Zixuan were to take office, he naturally would not want to use Mo Xiuchen’s men, who are loyal to him, as they didn’t show any concern or importance towards Mo Zixuan.

However, reality didn’t permit him to act willfully.

For the entire ten years of Mo Xiuchen’s time within the group, he had been able to change all of Xiao Wenqing’s people. One could say the whole group had been permeated with his people.

If he were to take all his people away, MS Group would be ruined.

That was the reason why, even when Mo Xiuchen was not in the company, Mo Zixuan didn’t dare to act rashly with Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu, he simply couldn’t afford to be reckless.

He wanted to be CEO, but he lacked the ability to take total control of the entire group in a short period of time.

In truth, even if he were to become CEO, he currently needed Mo Xiuchen’s help.

He would need time to slowly replace Mo Xiuchen’s men little by little, gradually infiltrate his own power.

“What are you shocked for, Mo Zixuan? Don’t tell me you thought when Xiuchen is gone, Ah Mu and I would remain here to help you?”

Luo Haofeng sneered at Mo Zixuan. He was simply daydreaming.

Honestly, if he were Mo Zixuan, he wouldn’t even dare to dream this way.

He didn’t have the skills, but he wanted the power.

“Well, I can continue my travels.”

Qin Mu didn’t pay any attention to Mo Zixuan, only mumbling to himself lazily.

Luo Haofeng chuckled, “Ah Mu, last time you went on a carefree vacation alone, this time, let’s do it together. Xiuchen, why don’t you organise a meeting later and ask, to see who is willing to take a vacation? We can have a group tour around the country. You and Wen Ran can lead. Everyone has worked hard for so many years and also deserves a good rest.”

“Mo Xiuchen, you can’t do this.”

Mo Zixuan’s face changed several times, his voice filled with a mix of urgency and anxiety, as well as a touch of anger.

Mo Xiuchen glanced at him, and asked indifferently, “Then what do you hope I do? Have Ah Feng and Ah Mu still help you?”

Mo Zixuan said with difficulty, “At least, let them stay temporarily. Once I find suitable replacements, they can leave. If you take all the people away at once, MS Group will become hollowed out.”

“Mo Zixuan, are you sure you’re not running a fever?”

Luo Haofeng scoffed, he was really daring to dream.

Mo Zixuan was a bit annoyed, but didn’t dare to flare up and forcefully restrained his anger, “Before, you only said you were resigning, not that you would be taking away all the people. Even after you leave the group, you still hold shares. You also have responsibility towards the MS Group. Do you really want to watch as MS Group collapses and your old man becomes furious to death?”

He knew that Mo Xiuchen had no feelings for Mo Jingteng, but no matter what, they were father and son, and blood was thicker than water. Mo Xiuchen wouldn’t be so cruel.

“Ah Feng and Ah Mu remain in the group to help me because they’re my brothers. But, why should they stay to help you?”

Mo Xiuchen’s mouth curled up in a cold smirk as his cold gaze landed on Mo Zixuan.

“The police have only caught my mother, and not yet Wu Tianyi. I can persuade my mother to disclose Wu Tianyi’s whereabouts, and perhaps Fu Jingyi, whom Gu Yan and his son are desperately seeking. Using these two individuals to trade, that should be enough, don’t you think?”

Mo Zixuan had thought of this point even before he came.

Previously, he had traded Xiao Wenqing for the position of CEO with Mo Xiuchen. Now, he wanted to trade Fu Jingyi and Wu Tianyi for the stability of MS Group, giving him time to cultivate his own people.

He felt that this transaction was extremely beneficial and believed Mo Xiuchen would definitely not refuse.

As he spoke, he kept his eyes firmly on Mo Xiuchen, not missing any subtle changes in his expression.

Mo Xiuchen snorted coldly, picked up a cigarette from the table, handed one each to Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng, and lit one for himself.
