Chapter 419 - Meeting Between Rivals

“I just invested in a project. Coincidentally, the stock market wasn’t doing well recently and I had to pay a lot of money. That was why I wanted to promote my stocks. Who knew that this person wouldn’t appreciate my kindness and dare to look down on me? He’s too much,” Mo Shengli said furiously.

“Manager Cai, no matter what, he is a member of the Mo Family and can be considered your superior. You can’t disrespect him.” Lan Anran criticized the finance director.

“Young Madam, I didn’t.” The man explained.

“Uncle, I’ve criticized him, but what he’s saying is the truth. You definitely can’t use the company’s money for personal use, but this isn’t something I can decide. You’ll have to wait for Jinrong to come back,” Lan Anran smiled and said.

Mo Shengli watched as he was defeated and started to threaten Lan Anran.

“Lan Anran, you really think too highly of yourself. Have you forgotten about our…” “Uncle! This is the company, not a place for you to quarrel. Let’s talk in private.”

Lan Anran turned to leave and she was followed by Mo Shengli.

The two of them arrived at a deserted place and started to talk about private matters.

“Lan Anran, are you crazy? How dare you stop me from getting money from the company? I’m still a boss in front of those people, and your actions have embarrassed me. Have you forgotten that I have your secrets? Mo Shengli said furiously.

“Uncle! Don’t be angry! You wanted to take the money from the company so blatantly. If Jinrong finds out, I won’t be able to explain myself. If you want the money, I can transfer it to you from another place, but you can’t drag me down so blatantly.

If you really want the Mo Family’s money, be smart. Everyone in the company knows your identity. If any rumors spreads to Jinrong’s ears, it won’t look good.”

Lan Anran was furious.

“You dare to threaten me now? I don’t think you want your secrets anymore. In that case, don’t blame me for being merciless.”

Mo Shengli took out his phone, prepared to share her secret.

“Uncle, you have to think this through. This isn’t a smart move and you will definitely pay the price. When the time comes, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I will definitely help you, you don’t have to be so anxious.” Lan Anran threatened.

“Then I’ll trust you again. Don’t disappoint me, transfer the money to my card as soon as possible, or you’ll suffer.”

Lan Anran didn’t take Mo Shengli’s threat to heart, but she still nodded pretentiously.

“Uncle, don’t worry, this isn’t a small sum. You have to give me some time, right?” Lan Anran smiled and said.

Mo Shengli snorted and turned to leave.

“Manager Cai, I’m sorry for troubling you today. I’ll leave this account with you. If he comes to make a fuss again, show him this account and I’ll double your salary to compensate for the losses you suffered today,” Lan Anran smiled and said.

“Thank you, Young Madam!

Manager Cai bowed to express his gratitude. Lan Anran sat in Mo Jinrong’s office. Since Mo Jinrong wasn’t around, she would temporarily take over.

She had just flipped open a contract when there was a knock on the office door.

“Come in.”

A long-haired woman walked in with a lollipop in her mouth, wearing a short skirt and high heels.

The two women looked at each other, sensing a trace of hostility.

“Who are you?” Lan Anran was the first to ask.

The woman didn’t reply and continued to chew her lollipop. She eyed Lan Anran and unceremoniously sat on the sofa, crossing her legs as she examined her.

“Are you Mo Jinrong’s wife, Lan Anran?” she asked provocatively.

“Who are you?”

Lan Anran sized her up as well. She was dressed in designer clothes, had a cool and handsome hairstyle, wore a necklace and had a ring on her finger. Each item was very expensive. She seemed to be a little wealthy woman.

“I’m Chen Xiao! Nice to meet you! I wonder if Jinrong mentioned me to you? I just came to find him a few days ago. I can be considered his savior and he helped me find a hotel. I’ve been staying there the past few days. Did he not tell you?”

Chen Xiao radiated confidence from head to toe and Lan Anran didn’t lose to her at all.

She smiled disdainfully.

“So you’re Chen Xiao? Jinrong mentioned you to me, but he didn’t say anything about Miss Chen’s appearance.”

Chen Xiao knew that there was a deeper meaning in her words.

“What do you mean? What do I look like? Miss Lan, aren’t your words too hurtful?” Chen Xiao asked harshly.

“Miss Chen, don’t be angry! Jinrong described you as vulgar and plain-looking. Now that I look at you, you don’t seem like the type Jinrong described, but you have the temperament of a rich young lady.”

Lan Anran smiled deliberately.

“Is that how Jinrong described me? You have good taste. My father is a banker, you should be grateful that I saved Jinrong. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have married him today,” Chen Xiao said.

The more Lan Anran looked at her, the more she disliked her. If she was just Mo Jinrong’s savior, she could treat her kindly, but she didn’t expect his savior to be so arrogant. Since it was like this, then there was no need for her to be polite.

The most infuriating thing was that Mo Jinrong didn’t tell her about it.

Did he have a guilty conscience?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Of course I should be the most grateful to you, Miss Chen. When he first told me about it, I wanted to come over to express my gratitude. However, I didn’t expect you to come knocking on my door. Jinrong isn’t around today, or else I would have treated you to a meal,” Lan Anran smiled and said.

“Actually, it’s alright today. There’s nothing wrong with two people eating. If you want, I’m willing to accompany you.” Chen Xiao continued to chew her lollipop.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened.

“Anran, I heard that you were here, I…”

As she spoke, she saw the woman on the sofa, who didn’t seem very approachable.

“You have a guest, I’ll come back later.” Qiu Cha smiled.

“It’s alright, Ms. Chen just so happens to want to have lunch with me. It’s almost noon, why don’t we all have lunch?” Lan Anran smiled and said.

“Who is this person? She barged in so suddenly, doesn’t she know barging in without knocking is rude? Doesn’t she know that this is the president’s office? Shouldn’t she greet us? Are the people from the Mo Corporation so disrespectful?”

Although Chen Xiao spoke with a smile, her tone wasn’t kind at all.

“She is my best friend and the chief designer of this company, Qiu Cha. Jinrong specially hired her from abroad with a high salary. Is she not worthy to have a meal with Miss Chen?” Lan Anran smiled and asked.
