Chapter 378: Father-in-law’s Protection!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“President Shang, you’ve really let me witness the banquet of the upper class of Sea City.” Mo Junyan’s cold tone was filled with mockery. “Originally, my purpose in attending this banquet was to find a few partners! The Mo Corporation has a plan to develop a few projects in Sea City and also intends to find local companies to cooperate with. However…”
Since Mo Junyan had said that he wanted to invest in a few big projects in Sea City, he naturally couldn’t underestimate such a big business project.
Not only would this have a huge impact on Sea City’s economic development, but if local companies were lucky enough to participate in the investment, the companies would definitely develop by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, as soon as Mo Junyan opened his mouth, the business owners and elites of Sea City were tempted.
However, Mo Junyan seemed to dislike these enterprises.
When Shen Yizhi heard Mo Junyan’s words, he raised his eyebrows again.
He thought to himself, “When did the Mo Corporation plan to invest in Sea City? Why doesn’t he, as the general manager of Sea City Branch, know?”
Of course, the entire Mo Corporation belonged to Mo Junyan. If the Mo Corporation wanted to invest, Mo Junyan, the boss, had the final say.
Since he said that he wanted to make a big investment in Sea City, he would do it. However, Shen Yizhi was a little puzzled. Did Mo Junyan have a motive for doing this? Hearing Mo Junyan’s words, Shang Chenghao’s forehead immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
He wiped his forehead and said with a smile, “President Mo, calm down! This… this, President Rong and the rest were just joking with Chairman Gu, right, President Rong?”
Rong Cheng was taken aback by Mo Junyan’s words. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead even more than Shang Chenghao’s.
He was secretly regretting it. He felt dizzy. He was the boss of a big company in Sea City, but he was gossiping at a cocktail party like a gossipy woman. It was annoying.
This was great. He had made the big shots unhappy.
He clearly wanted to please President Mo, so why did he make him unhappy?
However, the only thing he could do now was to try his best to please Mo Junyan.
Rong Cheng smiled and said, “That’s right, President Mo. Actually, I have a good relationship with Chairman Gu. We’re just joking with him now, right, Chairman Gu?”
Rong Cheng believed that this involved the economic development of the entire Sea City. As long as Gu Jianguo took the overall situation into consideration, he would definitely reduce this matter to a small matter.
However, Rong Cheng did not know that, as an elite businessman in the business world, Gu Jianguo was bold and had methods. He was also tolerant and magnanimous to some companies, but he was a very protective person.
Besides, these people were ruining his daughter’s reputation at a banquet. They were mocking his precious granddaughter for being a bastard. Hmph, he would remember it in his heart.
Not to mention that he was petty, he was just a protective father who loved his daughter.
Gu Jianguo sneered and said, “Oh, President Rong, were you joking with me just now? You’re using the reputation of my daughter and granddaughter to joke with me? Rong Cheng, do you think I’m really easy to bully? Then can I say that your daughter has a messy private life, keeps a man, and even had an abortion a few times? Oh, I’m sorry, President Rong. I’m just joking with you. You won’t mind, right?”
Rong Cheng was speechless.
The celebrities in the business world who had daughters at home were all useless!
Gu Jianguo’s daughter had only gotten pregnant because she had misjudged someone and accidentally slept with the wrong person.
They became the targets of attacks and ridicule from the upper class.
However, how many of the upper-class socialites were innocent?
Basically, with some money in their family, they became arrogant and despotic. They did not have any academic achievements and their work was not good, but they had a lot of connections. They stayed in bars all day and did not return home at night.
Hmph, compared to their daughters, Gu Jianguo thought that his precious daughter was really obedient.
Originally, he was the richest man in Sea City. As a man, it was not appropriate for him to criticize a girl.
However, they had an unreasonable father, so they could not blame him.
As soon as Gu Jianguo finished speaking, not only Rong Cheng, but the people from the association had ugly expressions.
Rong Cheng’s face darkened. He gritted his teeth and said angrily, “Gu Jianguo!”
Gu Jianguo said calmly, “Why, President Rong, did I say anything wrong?”
Shang Chenghao’s expression was slightly ugly. His expression was very serious as he warned in a low voice, “Chairman Gu, please consider the overall situation! This concerns the economic development of the entire Sea City. Don’t let these private matters between you affect President Mo’s impression of Sea City!”
When Gu Jianguo heard this, he glanced at him and said with a fake smile, “Alright, President Shang, I won’t argue with them for the time being!”
However, he thought to himself that Shang Chenghao, that sly old fox, was obviously biased toward Rong Cheng and the others. Previously, when these people were talking about his daughter, he didn’t say a word. Now that it was his turn to talk about others, President Shang persuaded him to take into account the bigger picture. To hell with the bigger picture!’
Gu Jianguo and Shi Yashu walked up to Mo Junyan with wine glasses.
This simply shocked everyone.
It was fine for Gu Jianguo to go forward, but the problem was that Madam Gu was a woman.
Rong Cheng regained his impression and immediately stood in front of Shi Yashu. With a serious expression, he said, “Madam Gu, please wait! President Mo can’t get too close to women!”
This time, Shi Yashu did not say anything. She nodded and said, “Alright!”
However, her eyes, which were exactly the same as Gu Qingming’s, glanced at Mo Junyan indifferently.
She had also heard of the rumor that Mo Junyan could not come into contact with women.
However, she was a little puzzled as to whether she really couldn’t come into contact with him or if it was fake.
If he really couldn’t come into contact with women, then how did he sleep with their daughter?
It was said that he could not come into contact with women, and he did avoid women.
Mo Junyan received a strange look from his future mother-in-law, and his forehead twitched slightly.
He immediately said, “Chairman Gu, Madam Gu, I’ve heard a lot about you!”
With that, he walked forward.
His words shocked everyone again.
Gu Jianguo wanted to act like a father-in-law, but he could not be unreasonable.
After all, only they knew about Gu Qingming and Mo Junyan.
Most importantly, Gu Qingming had even given birth to a child now. The child was already a few months old.
Neither Mo Junyan nor the Mo Family responded.
At the thought of this, he became a little worried.
Did Mo Junyan or the Mo Family look down on their daughter or abandon their granddaughter, Little Orange?
Sigh, as an old father, he really worried too much.
Seeing that Gu Jianguo and his wife did not respond, Mo Junyan immediately said, “Chairman Gu, Madam Gu, I have a project that 1 want to cooperate with the Gu Corporation. Why don’t we discuss it at the side?”
Everyone was speechless..
