Chapter 462: Confession
“Mom, I understand.”
She walked out the door and called Mo Jinrong.
“Jinrong…”
“Anran, I know you’re angry with me and I know I did wrong, so I want to be honest with you. I hope you can forgive me.”
Mo Jinrong and Lan Anran spole at the same time.
Lan Anran suddenly felt that she hadn’t misjudged him, so she let him speak first.
“Anran, I don’t know how Lan Yaxin and I ended up sleeping together. I was clearly at a cocktail party today and after drinking a mouthful of wine, I felt dizzy and was helped to my room to rest. I don’t remember anything from them on but when I woke up, I found her with me.
“In the end, she used this matter to threaten me. I really don’t want to lie to you. I was really framed. Anran, you must forgive me.”
After Mo Jinrong explained the entire matter, Lan Anran was silent for a long time.
When he heard her remain silent, he thought she was angry. The two of them were silent for a long time before he spoke again.
“Anran, I’m sorry! Forgive me, don’t be angry.”
His tone became lower and lower, like a child who did something wrong.
Suddenly, Lan Anran laughed loudly.
“Anran, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”
Mo Jinrong thought she was agitated, afraid that she had become hysterical.
“Jinrong, it’s time for us to put on a show again.”
An idea suddenly popped into Lan Anran’s mind. Now that she and the Mo Family were being watched, she could only go all out.
After the two of them discussed over the phone, Mo Jinrong deeply felt that his wife was an old fox.
“Anran, are you really not angry? Why do you believe me unconditionally?” he asked again, as though he wasn’t confident.
Lan Anran said solemnly, “I have never doubted you, unless you don’t even believe it yourself.”
After she hung up, Mo Jinrong felt a sense of trust. He didn’t hesitate and called Lan Yaxin directly.
“I promise you, you can have whatever you want, as long as you don’t tell Anran.”
Mo Jinrong pretended to surrender and Lan Yaxin’s bitter mood was washed away. She asked for 50 million yuan.
He agreed without hesitation.
Lan Yaxin thought he was afraid of letting Lan Anran know, so she didn’t think too much about it.
“Brother-in-law, I really don’t know what’s so good about her that makes you so afraid. Aren’t I ten thousand times better than her?”
Her tone was slightly seductive over the phone.
Mo Jinrong didn’t listen to her at all. He hung up after sending her the money and reminded her not to call again. Of course, he knew that Lan Yaxin wouldn’t stop. It would be more satisfying to eat fish after it grew up!
“Young Master! Young Madam is so bold! She actually dared to let you do such a thing to her sister. If others were her, they would have been very furious!”
Mo San admired Lan Anran. After all, as a wife, no one could tolerate such a thing, but she smiled and responded so cheerfully. Her nonchalant tone could easily cause misunderstandings.
“She really isn’t an ordinary person. I didn’t expect her to trust me so much.”
Mo Jinrong was indeed surprised. After all, he still wasn’t confident.
“Young Master! Lan Yaxin must be behind this. Should we take any precautionary measures? It will be troublesome if she makes things worse and brings it to Old Mrs. Mo.”
“She wouldn’t dare!”
Mo Jinrong thought that she would restrain herself for the sake of money. After all, it wouldn’t look good on either side.
“What should we do next? There are many people watching the entertainment city project. I heard that Old Master Tan even got Tan Shilin to contact Xie Li, but Xie Li seems to have his eyes on the Mo Family and is more willing to cooperate with us,” Mo San said.
“Have you investigated the background of L Group? I don’t want anything to happen to my partner in the end.”
Mo Jinrong was very cautious in business. After all, this wasn’t a small deal worth tens of millions.
“I have investigated their backgrounds long ago. Xie Li is Xie Hong’s third son and his only heir. He is shrewd and capable. Xie Hong values him very much. In his early years, Xie Li studied business administration in a university abroad and has already obtained a master’s degree.
“He has a well-known name and is known as the financial prince in the financial world abroad. He was the first to propose the entertainment city project, but it’s worth mentioning that the Xie Family’s initial target wasn’t the Mo Family, but the Qin Family.
“Later, the reason for the change of target was said to be because they felt that the Qin Family wasn’t capable enough. Because of this, they deliberately voted through the board of directors to reject this proposal, which was why it was changed to our Mo Family.”
Mo San placed the documents on the table.
“The Qin Family can’t do it domestically, but their strength abroad is far above the Mo Family. This reason is too far-fetched. When was the appointment with Xie Li?”
Mo Jinrong flipped through the information in his hand and spoke casually.
“The meeting is scheduled for tomorrow at 3 p.m.”
“He sure knows how to pick a time. It’s decided, we’ll see him tomorrow afternoon.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
“Boss Mo, can I come in?”
Qiu Cha knocked politely at the door.
“Come in!”
Qiu Cha stood in front of the table with a timid expression, wanting to say something but not daring to. Her gaze drifted to Mo San.
“Mo San, leave first.”
Mo San turned and left. Qiu Cha spoke after closing the door.
“Is there any news about Zhao Han recently?” Qiu Cha couldn’t help asking.
“Can’t you just call him if you want to know? I heard that you two were on good terms a while ago. Did you quarrel?” Mo Jinrong asked as though he didn’t know.
“I deleted his number a long time ago, so I wanted to ask you. If you don’t know, then forget it.”
Qiu Cha was a little dazed and prepared to leave.
Ever since they didn’t contact each other for no reason last time, Qiu Cha deleted his phone number in a fit of anger.
“Wait a minute, we will probably be looking around the shopping mall this afternoon. Come with us to see the sales of your clothes.”
Mo Jinrong spoke deliberately.
Qiu Cha replied casually and turned to leave.
“See you at the shopping mall today.”
Mo Jinrong immediately sent Zhao Han a message.
Ever since Liu Xixi was suppressed by Tan Shilin, she hadn’t had much popularity in the entertainment circle.
However, she still wanted to make a name for herself and return to the entertainment circle. She had tried several times, but no one was willing to help her.
She could only spend money on trending topics, claiming that the past was framed and all the evidence pointed to Lan Yanran.
But this didn’t cause much of a stir. Liu Xixi wasn’t willing to leave the entertainment circle just like that.
In a hurry, she could only look for the Mo Family. Mo Jinrong definitely wouldn’t help her, so she wanted to find Mo Shengli.
