Chapter 1423 - Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (96)

Mo Zhi frowned and looked at his cell phone impatiently. Then he picked up the line.

A voice said, “CEO Mo, I have bad news.”

The man snorted frostily. “What bad news? Huh! I’m still alive and kicking. Can’t you say anything good?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The voice choked for a moment and said, “I’m not referring to that, I’m saying that there’s bad news at work.”

“What’s the matter at work? Can’t you speak clearly?”

The person frantically tried to explain, “The Chairman has just called for a board meeting and during the board meeting, he proposed to let Mo Xicheng take over the CEO position.”

When Mo Zhi heard this, he sat up straight immediately and looked at his cell phone in shock. “What- what did you say?”

The voice at the other end o fthe line repeated the information.

Mo Zhi sprang up from the bed and cried, “This is not possible!”

The voice sighed and continued, “CEO Mo, I knew you wouldn’t believe it, but it’s true. The board meeting has just ended. Right now someone is probably on the way to the hospital to see Mo Xicheng. I’m just giving you a heads-up. It seems that the Chairman is not kidding! Also, you know Old Li and his gang, they weren’t happy with you. Now that they hear Mo Xicheng is taking over, they are ecstatic. You know these people more than I do.”

Mo Zhi was furious at once. “These old ignorant fools have distorted views! They can’t see who the real successor is. I’m sure Dad has made a mistake and there’s some misunderstanding. I think I know, I’m sure he threatened Dad into this. This is simply abominable!”

At these words, Mo Zhi hung up the phone furiously.

He started pacing back and forth in the ward.

“What’s the matter?” Yao Lili asked.

She could see that something serious had happened.

Mo Zhi told Yao Lili what had happened. The woman was immediately stunned and said, “How did this happen?”

Mo Zhi took in a deep breath and asked, “What do we do now? Do you think Dad changed his mind all of a sudden... because they have found out?”

His words threw Yao Lili into a panic. Why else would Mo Hai suddenly change his mind? It was impossible.

“This is quite incredible. For so many years, Mo Hai has taken exceptional care of you because of Li Shu, so he wouldn’t possibly relinquish the headship of the Mo family to someone else, unless...”

Mo Zhi anxiously asked, “Unless what?”

“Unless the person who requested was Li Shu! Otherwise, Mo Hai would ever do such a thing?”

Mo Zhi’s pupils shrank back at once. “Li Shu? How- how could that be possible?”

On this note, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

The two of them turned around simultaneously and saw Li Shu standing at the doorway. She walked in as they turned to look at her.

Li Shu had not expected Yao Lili to still be around.

She stood at the doorway and paused. Then she furrowed her brow.

Following this, she said to Yao Lili, “I have things to tell Mo Zhi, please leave the room.”

Yao Lili threw a glance at Mo Zhi and shifted her gaze to Li Shu. Then she nodded. She turned around to pack her belongings and shot Mo Zhi a look to tell him to remain calm, before she walked out of the room.

The ward fell silent at once.

Mo Zhi looked at Li Shu, as a sense of conflict began to grow in him.
