Chapter 379 Retirement

Before Mo Shengli came, he had investigated everything. Mo Changwen was the figurehead, but that wouldn’t stop him from doing things as long as he could enter the company. “Shengli, hurry and eat. I’ll get them to perform an opera for you. I wonder if you’ll like the show,” Old Mrs. Mo smiled and said.

She got someone to pick a song and let them sing it on stage.

Mo Shengli smiled. “You’ve suffered a lot on the island over the years. It’s great to have a chance to hear it,” she said.

“Uncle, which island was it? Jinrong and I would like to thank them,” Lan Anran smiled and said.

The islands had names and they would know if Mo Shengli had lied.

“It’s an island in the neighboring country, called Anise Island. This is the name from many years ago. I don’t know how it turned out after I went abroad and I miss it,” Mo Shengli said.

Lan Anran immediately took out her phone and searched the island. It seemed that Mo Shengli had made ample preparations. “Uncle, is it this?”

Lan Anran took out her phone and searched for a scenery photo for Mo Shengli to see.

Mo Shengli narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“It’s been so many years, I don’t know what the island has become, but it’s very possible. I remember the sunset was the most beautiful.”

What an old fox!

Lan Anran didn’t manage to get anything out of him, so she put away her phone.

“Hurry and eat. It’s getting old. In the past, I could still cook for you when I was younger, but now, I can’t anymore. But I still remember the cooking method. Pick your favorite food.”

Old Mrs. Mo placed many dishes in front of Mo Shengli.

“Mom, it’s my fault that I couldn’t take care of you all these years, but don’t worry, I will take care of you when you are old. Since my brothers are gone, you can only rely on me. I will help Jinrong take care of the company, just wait to enjoy life,” Mo Shengli said.

Old Mrs. Mo was overjoyed.

“Good, good! My villa is finally a little crowded.”

Old Mrs. Mo looked at Mo Jinrong and Lan Anran. It didn’t seem like what they had said. Shengli didn’t seem like he was here to harm anyone. They might have misunderstood.

Mo Jinrong watched Mo Shengli’s every move and had a hunch that there was something wrong with this person.

He hadn’t been back in years and now that he was here, there must be a problem.

After the meal, Old Mrs. Mo took Mo Shengli around the entire villa.

Mo Shengli looked around the villa, which was very different from when he left.

He then walked into his room. The original items were gone and now, it was brand new furniture. Mo Shengli sighed.

“Mom, things are different here. Things are the same, but people have changed.” Old Mrs. Mo nodded sadly.

“Yeah, I put everything away after you left. I didn’t throw it away, it’s still in the storage room. I can get it back for you if you want it, but it might be a little old.”

Mo Shengli shook his head and smiled.

“There’s no need, those things can’t be used anymore. It’s alright if the useless trash is

gone!”

After leaving the Mo Villa, Mo Jinrong and Lan Anran went to the company.

“Jinrong, what do you think Mo Shengli’s purpose for coming here is?”

Lan Anran observed Mo Shengli secretly. This person was shrewd and wasn’t easy to deal with.

Mo Jinrong shook his head.

He didn’t know either. He didn’t know the current Mo Shengli yet, so he couldn’t act rashly. He could observe him in the company later.

“Jinrong, I want to ask you something. Now that things have come to this, I don’t want to hide it from you anymore. I hope you won’t hide it from me as well.”

Lan Anran was solemn.

Mo Jinrong stopped the car by the roadside and looked at her quietly. “I know you have a business in the black market, you are Xiang Tian!” Lan Anran told the truth. She wanted to know why Mo Jinrong did this. She hadn’t received any news about Xiang Tian in the past few days, and he hadn’t sold any medicine either. Something was wrong.

“What are you talking about? I don’t know Xiang Tian, you have the wrong person!”

Mo Jinrong stared straight at her, as though denying her words.

“You know I wouldn’t hurt you. I’ve investigated you for a long time. I hope you can tell me the truth. You know that I’m investigating you, right? You haven’t had any news recently. Why?”.

Lan Anran came clean with Mo Jinrong, not knowing what he was up to.

Mo Jinrong looked at her quietly and said, “I did it for Ying’er’s sake. I have always been upset about her death. I hope to develop more medicine for heart disease, so that people like Ying’er can have a second chance at life. If it weren’t for me, Ying’er wouldn’t have died. I’m atoning for my sins. But after Zero cured me last time, I had let it go. After all, the black market wasn’t a long-term plan. If my identity was exposed, there would be thousands of pairs of eyes watching me. I couldn’t take the risk anymore.

I know you’ve been watching me. I’m going to put those medicines on the market now so that more people can afford them.”

Mo Jinrong spoke tirelessly and Lan Anran finally understood why he was so obsessed with medicine for heart disease.

She grabbed Mo Jinrong’s hand tightly and comforted him.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely help you! Zero has agreed to continue your treatment in a week.”

A glint flashed in Mo Jinrong’s eyes.

“Thank you!”

Lan Yanran had been busy with variety shows and the production team, so he couldn’t care less about going home.

“Yanran, I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?”

Wang Qing was both overjoyed and worried.

“Of course it’s the bad news first. I like bitter before sweet.”

Lan Yanran smiled brightly.

“Your spot for the rural variety show has been replaced.”

“Why? I have already been booked by the Rural Countryside Records. The director is very satisfied with me. Who took away the resources I got from almost being taken advantage of by a big shot?”

Lan Yanran was a little agitated.

Previously, he had accompanied the big shot for a meal and a drink, almost losing his virginity to get the spot for the variety show. He was furious that it had been replaced.

“I don’t know, the producers said that it was Liu Xixi. There is only one spot there, so it’s

gone.”

Wang Qing smiled bitterly. Lan Yanran, who didn’t have any financial backers and counted on his fans and popularity, was at a disadvantage. It was normal for someone without a sugar daddy to be bullied.

However, his brother-in-law was Mo Jinrong, so there wasn’t anyone in the industry who would dare to touch him. At most, they would steal his resources.

“What about the good news?” Lan Yanran asked in dissatisfaction.

“The good news is that recently, an official has extended an olive branch to you. Think about whether you want to accept it or not, but the female lead is Liu Xixi. Would you like to deal with her?”

Wang Qing asked carefully. “Sis Wang! Don’t you know how badly I was harmed by that woman last time? I’m not going!” The thought of Liu Xixi disgusted Lan Yanran.

He originally thought that she was his goddess, but he didn’t expect her to be such a beast! “Yanran, this is a proper drama, why don’t you endure it? This is a good opportunity for you to change your style. If you survive, your image will change to that of a capable actor and you won’t have to just count on your popularity.”

Wang Qing persuaded.
