Chapter 423: 320 Hope is Her Master_2
“But you can’t just watch the Mo family fall, can you?”
An elder blurted out in desperation.
“Yes, Shiting, the Mo family can’t go on without you.”
“Just let go of the past and return to the Mo family.”
The other elders also expressed their concerns.
Mo Jianming and Mo Jianyu remained silent.
If it weren’t absolutely necessary, they wouldn’t have come to Mo Shiting to beg for mercy.
But in the end, they had to submit to reality.
The budget deficit of the Mo family is very severe, and it has always been supported by Xinghe. Now, if Mo Shiting doesn’t lend a hand, they might go bankrupt within a year.
Since it is a family business handed down from generations to generations, they naturally didn’t want it to be ruined like this, so they had to plead with Mo Shiting.
Who could’ve known that this damn kid would be so unwilling?
He was rejecting kindness!
The brothers Mo Jianming cursed Mo Shiting in their hearts simultaneously.
Mo Shiting didn’t care about their dissatisfaction; his long legs gracefully crossed, lazily yet showing an aura of invincibility. “I can agree to return to the Mo family, but the premise is that you all must leave.”
“Leave? How could we?”
An elder, with wide-eyed, refused.
There was another person who didn’t want to give up and complained to the old master. “Brother, you have to comment on this. We asked Shiting to come back, but he wants us to leave. Is… this something a human would do?”
Old Master Mo retorted coolly, “Didn’t you all do the same previously?”
Hearing this, Gu Li slightly curved her lips, trying her best to suppress her laughter.
The grandfather was totally biased, right? Awesome!
When it came to momentum and eloquence, no one in the room could match the old master. The elders were scolded a few times and finally quieted down.
This matter was argued for about an hour, with no conclusion.
In the end, Old Master Mo slammed his palm on the table, “It’s time for dinner. Everyone, go home!”
“Brother—”
“Uncle-”
The people were still persevering.
Mo Shiting pursed his lips, his tone serious: “Here are two options for you all, go back and think about them. Once you agree, we can talk.”
“What are the options?”
Someone asked impatiently.
Mo Shiting looked at them coldly and said, “First, sell your shares to me. I will offer 50% more for the price. After this, your relation to the rise and fall of the Mo family will end. Second, you only take the dividends and do not interfere in any company decisions, the control of which will always stay with me. Besides, no matter how you choose, Xinghe will never merge with the Mo family.”
“This…”
“Fine, allow us to consider it for a few days.”
The two proposals provided by Mo Shiting, even though they didn’t meet their expectations, at least it was better than the Mo family going bankrupt. Even if they were unwilling, they had no choice but to agree to consider it for now.
The crowd left soon after.
Only the Mo family’s grandfather, grandson, and Gu Li were left in the spacious room.
Having watched an intense family feud unfold, Gu Li sighed quietly in her heart. Then she turned to Old Master Mo with a sweet smile, “Grandfather, I’m a bit hungry, shall we go to eat?”
“Hmm.”
Old Master Mo stood up, “We should have eaten earlier. Let’s go, don’t let these ungrateful people spoil the mood.”
“Hehe, I won’t.”
Gu Li affectionately hooked her arm around his, supporting him as they slowly walked towards the dining room.
Mo Shiting followed them silently.
The dinner was quite sumptuous, with the servants preparing twelve dishes and two soups.
The portions were delicate, making it a visually appealing feast.
Mo Shiting sat next to Gu Li, constantly serving her food.
Old Master Mo sat across from them, witnessing an overwhelming show of affection, and he could hardly bear to watch.
Gu Li tasted a few bites of the meat served by Mo Shiting. When she saw Old Master Mo looking at them, she quickly picked up a pair of public chopsticks, served him some broccoli and spinach, and said with a cheerful smile, “Grandfather, you should eat more greens. They say that broccoli and spinach contain several times more vitamin K, calcium, and riboflavin than lightcolored vegetables. It’s good for elder people.”
“Ah, only my dear granddaughter, Gu Li knows how to treat elders, unlike someone else, tsk tsk…”
Old Master Mo was enjoying the food served by Gu Li and casually taunting someone else.
Mo Shiting, however, acted as if he hadn’t heard at all. He didn’t even bother to look at him and continued serving food for Gu Li.
“Alright, alright, stop serving me. Look at my bowl, it’s piled up like a small hill. I’m almost full.”
