Chapter 793: Wen Ran has betrayed you.
Mo Xiuchen wasn’t lying in this case.
He did indeed stumble upon the newspaper by chance, perhaps even, the heavens were helping him.
The fact that last year’s paper would miraculously appear only now, and in the cab he was riding, was so unbelievable that no one would buy it if he told them.
Of course, such a dramatic coincidence was no coincidence at all. Most of the coincidences in this world were artfully arranged by someone, including this newspaper.
Same with the words of the taxi driver referring to the ‘lady who rode before him’. All of these were purposefully arranged solely for Mo Xiuchen. Not only in that car, but there were copies of the same paper in other cabs parked on the street too.
Mo Jingteng’s eyes flickered with suspicion, wondering whether Mo Xiuchen was genuinely oblivious or if he was lying.
...
Mo Xiuchen acted as though he didn’t notice Mo Jingteng’s skepticism, lazily leaning against the couch in a state of indifferent coolness, without showing any signs of pretense.
Mo Jingteng carefully formed his words and after a while, he explained, “Xiuchen, the scandal Cheng Jia had with Little Liu last year was actually because Little Liu took advantage of her. Her feelings for you have always remained the same from start to finish. You later agreed to be engaged to her, indicating that you didn’t mind what had happened. The only problem was, you had an accident in surgery and lost your memory.”
Mo Jingteng was gambling.
He was betting that Mo Xiuchen knew as much as he had just mentioned.
“Why did Wen Ran and I divorce?”
Instead of revealing whether or not he believed Mo Jingteng’s words, after a moment of silence, Mo Xiuchen simply asked a question.
Mo Jingteng’s face altered slightly. A hint of rage surfaced on his weather-beaten face and he replied curtly, “Xiuchen, your divorce with Wen Ran certainly wasn’t without a reason, but because Wen Ran wronged you.”
“What did she do to wrong me?”
Mo Xiuchen’s brows furrowed, his body leaning slightly forward on the couch, his cold gaze fixed on Mo Jingteng.
Mo Jingteng, feigning indignation on his behalf, said, “She was having an affair with Qin Mu, so you divorced her. In a fit of anger, you then got engaged to Cheng Jia. Not many people know about this. Compared to Wen Ran, Cheng Jia was always loyal to you.”
“However, if you don’t fancy her, I won’t force you. After all, considering Cheng Jia’s background and past, she isn’t worthy of you. I’ve decided to throw a banquet next week to celebrate your recovery. We’ll invite some of G City’s young and distinguished women. I’m sure there will be someone better.”
Mo Jingteng didn’t dare to push Mo Xiuchen to accept Cheng Jia, nor did he want him to turn back to Wen Ran. Therefore, while he had yet not sought Wen Ran, and had yet to remember his past, Mo Jingteng planned to introduce him to another woman as soon as possible.
If he got another woman, naturally, he wouldn’t go looking for Wen Ran again.
But as he finished speaking, he felt the atmosphere change slightly.
Mo Xiuchen’s already cold demeanor turned icy cold. His narrow eyes concealed a chill, framing him in an aura of anger.
“Dad, are you saying Wen Ran betrayed me?”
“Yes. I didn’t want to tell you this. Wen Ran, that frivolous woman… you were so good to her, but she betrayed you, and hurt your heart. Xiuchen, you must not forgive her if you see her,” Mo Jingteng angrily declared.
With Mo Xiuchen having lost his memory, and Wen Ran having vowed not to tell him about their past, it’s likely that even if Mo Xiuchen asks Wen Ran, she wouldn’t dare tell him anything. Mo Xiuchen would then inevitably believe that it was Wen Ran who had betrayed him since she wouldn’t reveal their past.
Thinking this, a cold smile spread across Mo Jingteng’s face. Mo Xiuchen had repeatedly gone against him for Wen Ran’s sake in the past. Now that he had lost his memory, he wouldn’t allow Mo Xiuchen to reconnect with Wen Ran again.
“I understand,” Xiuchen’s voice was tinged with frost. Mo Jingteng, seeing that he seemed to believe, softened his righteous anger a bit and comforted him, “Xiuchen, your memory loss might be a good thing. Now you don’t have to grieve over Wen Ran anymore. You can focus all your energy on the company and we will find a woman befitting of our Mo family.”
“Mm.”
Mo Xiuchen responded lightly, indicating his agreement with Mo Jingteng’s words.
Mo Jingteng’s mood significantly improved. He finished the water in his glass, stood up, and said with a smile, “Xiuchen, you should rest for a bit, I’ll head home so you can get some work done.”
“Dad, I want to participate in tomorrow’s bid personally.”
“Good. Our biggest rival this time is Haochen, but don’t worry, we, the MS Group, will undoubtedly win the bid.”
A hint of cold, smug triumph gleamed in Mo Jingteng’s eyes, revealing his well-laid plan for defeating Haochen the next day.
“Mm, I’m curious to see Haochen’s capabilities. Secretary Wu can handle things temporarily on D Country’s end. I’ll stay here and make sure to acquire Haochen,” Mo Xiuchen said, exuding the same confidence and determination that delighted Mo Jingteng even further.
After showering Mo Xiuchen with praises, Mo Jingteng left him in the office and headed home reassured.
As he reached the ground floor, he ran into Mo Zixuan, who was coming to work.
Mo Zixuan greeted him respectfully as usual, not expressing any resentment for Mo Jingteng’s previous abandonment.
“Zixuan, your brother’s back. He’s in the office right now. If he asks you anything, be careful with your words,” Mo Jingteng whispered, lowering his voice, “Your brother has forgotten about Ran Wen now. If you still have feelings for her, you can pursue her freely. I won’t oppose you two being together anymore.”
Upon hearing Mo Jingteng say that Wen Ran was a flirtatious woman, if Mo Xiuchen sees Mo Zixuan entangled with her later, he would surely hate her much more.
Mo Zixuan looked down, his voice steady, “Dad, I don’t have such feelings for Wen Ran anymore.”
Mo Jingteng froze when he heard this, staring at Mo Zixuan’s calm eyes. He frowned, then encouraged, “Zixuan, didn’t you like Wen Ran quite a lot? Is it because you almost killed her last time? You really don’t need to worry about this. You’re my son, Mo Jingteng’s son. You liking Wen Ran is her blessing. Just go ahead and pursue her, I’ll make sure she agrees to marry you.”
In order to make Mo Xiuchen his puppet for life, he simply could not let Wen Ran come back to him.

And right now, Mo Zixuan was the best candidate.
Mo Zixuan looked puzzled, “Dad, didn’t you dislike Wen Ran? Why do you want to let her into our Mo family now?”
Mo Jingteng scoffed, “I can’t let her bewitch your brother again. Zixuan, if you genuinely don’t like her, I will have no option but to… make her vanish from this world.”
Mo Zixuan’s face paled instantly at his words. Seeing his reaction, Mo Jingteng patted his shoulder, “Zixuan, I knew it. You still haven’t let go of Wen Ran.”
