The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 702, Eavesdropping at the Door (2)

"Impossible," Ji Mingqian retorted without hesitation, his tone slightly charged, "The last time Jiang Yisheng stopped Mo Su at the entrance of Mo Garden, Mo Su must hold a grudge against him. Even if Jiang Yisheng’s life wasn’t in danger, it’s hard to assure that he wouldn’t be hurt."

"Aqian, calm down," Ye Jiuliang soothed in a quiet voice after being taken aback by Ji Mingqian’s unusual agitation. "Mochan is right. If you startle the snake, not to mention we have no idea where Asheng is right now, if you anger Mo Su and she decides to take Jiang Yisheng down with her, you’ll only be harming Asheng."

It was him who said he wasn’t close to Asheng before, but now that Asheng was in trouble, he seemed more anxious than anyone.

Ji Mingqian’s forehead bulged with veins as his expression turned grim.

"The plan for tomorrow will proceed as usual. As long as we can lure Mo Yu out and capture her, we’ll have a bargaining chip to threaten Mo Su," Ye Jiuliang said, patting his shoulder.

Ji Mingqian nodded almost imperceptibly, suppressing the hostility brewing in his heart.

...

Deep into the night, the starlight glimmered with a dim light, unable to resist the engulfing darkness.

The abandoned warehouse had been untouched for a long time, surrounded by overgrown weeds that cast eerie shadows like sinister shapes on the walls.

"Is anyone there?"

"Is anyone there?"

Wooden boards were nailed across the windows, and a hoarse voice seeped through the gaps.

A gust of cold wind blew, disappearing without a trace.

No response came for a long time.

"Cough cough."

Having shouted for so long, Jiang Yisheng’s throat felt uncomfortable and dry.

He clenched his fist to his mouth, coughing incessantly, the damp and foul smell in the warehouse making it unbearable.

A pale blush climbed onto his water-colored cheeks as Jiang Yisheng glanced at the windows boarded up with planks, his brow furrowing deeply.

All he did was go to the gallery to fetch something, and he ended up being kidnapped.

He couldn’t recall making any enemies, so who exactly were the people who kidnapped him?

They just dumped him here and left, what could their purpose be?

It didn’t seem like it was just for money.

Worst of all, his phone was gone. He had promised his family he would return today; they must be worried not seeing him back.

Jiang Yisheng glanced at his wristwatch; it was almost 4 a.m.

No, he couldn’t just sit here and wait for death.

Scanning his surroundings, Jiang Yisheng noticed an iron rod lying in a corner. He hurried over to it.

Picking up the iron rod, he weighed it in his hand, finding it quite heavy.

Clutching the iron rod, Jiang Yisheng walked back to the window and swung it fiercely at the glass.

"Clang clang clang—"

He smashed wildly, the wooden boards on the window suffered some damage, but it wasn’t much use.

Jiang Yisheng gritted his teeth and continued to bash the window.

After a while, the planks didn’t break, but his wrists gave in first.

Dropping the iron rod, he shook out his hand, easing the soreness in his wrist.

Jiang Yisheng pursed his lips, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over the necklace on his neck, his eyes trembling slightly.

Previously, whenever he was in danger, that person would always appear in time to help him; he feared that might not be the case this time.

That day, he could see that he was genuinely angry.

Jiang Yisheng raised his hand to the pendant, gently stroking it as a low sigh escaped from his lips.

...

Mo Family.

It was dawn, and Mo Su had just returned from finishing up company matters to a silent home.

Not indulging in sleep, she only rested in her room for an hour before she got up.

"Miss, your coffee." Mengzhu carried the coffee into the room and gently placed it on the desk.

Mo Su closed her laptop and reached for the coffee, "Has my mother not gotten up yet?"

"Madam hasn’t gotten up yet, Aqiao said that Madam was busy working until late last night and only just went to bed not long ago," Mengzhu stood opposite her and said respectfully.

The rich and bitter black coffee spread across her lips, and Mo Su narrowed her eyes, "How is the shareholder contact going with MK Group?"

"The situation isn’t very optimistic. Those shareholders, as soon as they hear we’re from Tengyue Group, hang up the phone right away." Forget about arranging a meeting to discuss purchasing shares, they were even afraid to speak another word; they avoided us like the plague.

Upon hearing this, Mo Su’s expression turned slightly cold.

The shareholders of MK Group having such a reaction must mean Ye Jiuliang meddled in some way.

In the corridor, a shadow approached silently.

Upon waking and hearing that Mo Su had returned home, he originally wanted to pry some information out of her, but unexpectedly encountered Mo Su and Mengzhu discussing business.

Fearing that Mo Su would again use some despicable tactic behind the scenes, Mo Chen stayed silent, hiding at the door and eavesdropping.

Even after Dad left the Mo Family, he never would have imagined Master Extinction was so adamant about acquiring shares of K Group, truly obstinate.

At that moment, Mo Su’s voice could be heard again from inside.

"Have you cleared up the assets under my father’s name?"

"Mark went to check. All the assets in the name of the Family Head that have any connection to the Mo Family have been transferred to the young master’s name," Mengzhu reported.

"Heh."

Mo Su let out a scoffing laugh, "All his children, yet he favored Ye Jiuliang, and now he favors Mo Chen, choosing to oppose me alone."

With such a father, what difference did it make if she gave him up?

"Miss, the Family Head has given all of the company shares to the young master. This might lead to obstacles in your decisions at the company," Mengzhu said.

Mo Chen had always sided with Ye Jiuliang, and for Ye Jiuliang’s sake, he would likely stop at nothing to prevent Mo Su from taking actions unfavorable to MK Group.

"Mo Chen is ultimately childlike in nature and immature in his actions, with a habit of favoring outsiders. Not to mention whether I can tolerate him, even just my grandfather’s disapproval would make it impossible for him to act recklessly," Mo Su said with a gleam of confidence in her eyes and an assertive tone.

"Everything at the Mo Family is mine. If he obeys, he can still be the young master of the Mo Family, but if he sides with Ye Jiuliang and opposes me, I will not tolerate his insolence time and again."

The cold words fell on Mo Chen’s ears, causing his heart to race and his face to turn pale.

Since childhood, he knew that Mo Su was very cold, but he never thought her heart could be so ruthless. For the sake of her plans, and the wealth of the Mo Family, she even harbored murderous intent towards him. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

He bit his lip, listening quietly to the noise inside.

"How is the situation with Mark?" Mo Su asked coldly, putting down her coffee cup.

"The person has been captured and is locked up in a warehouse on the outskirts," Mengzhu replied.

Doubt flickered in Mo Chen’s eyes. Who had been captured?

"With Jiang Yisheng suddenly missing, Li Mochan will surely receive the news soon. Tell Mark to be careful not to slip up," Mo Su’s lips curled up in a cruel smile.

"That Jiang Yisheng dared to embarrass me at Mo Garden last time; this time, he needs to be ’well looked after’."

Finishing her statement, Mo Su stood up, picked up her coat, and put it on, "Get the car ready."

"Miss, are you heading to the warehouse?" Mengzhu asked.

Mo Su nodded, "Since he’s already on our turf, it would be rude not to say hello."

"Yes."

Mengzhu walked out quickly, and after a while, Mo Su, taking her time in her high heels, walked out.
