章節 15: Chapter 15: He Wants to Sell the House
Lu Yuzhen had just returned to the country a few days ago and immediately learned from an acquaintance that Mo Nanze was recruiting an assistant.
Her mother, Meng Jie, urged her to apply for the job.
"Your disappointing sister has married Mo Qianyan, you cannot marry worse than her!"
"All the juniors in the Mo Family are good-for-nothings, but that Mo Nanze is both young and capable, you must seize this opportunity!"
"If you hook Mo Nanze, you'll be riding high above your sister!"
"..."
Meng Jie's words struck Lu Yuzhen's heart, one by one.
Lu Yuzhen felt somewhat indignant that Lu Yinfeng could marry Mo Qianyan.
She couldn't understand how such a prominent family like the Mo's could take a fancy to someone like Lu Yinfeng.
However, if Lu Yinfeng could do it, then she, Lu Yuzhen, could certainly do it too.
Lu Yuzhen had been comparing herself with Lu Yinfeng for more than a decade and she couldn't lose this time either.
Thinking this, Lu Yuzhen undid the first button of her shirt and walked into Mo Nanze's office after knocking on the door.
"Lawyer Mo, Mr. Wang's case documents have been organized. The meeting just now ended abruptly, but I've explained everything to Mr. Wang and scheduled another meeting for two days later."
Mo Nanze glanced at her and nodded indifferently.
Knowing her place, Lu Yuzhen prepared to leave.
Winning over Mo Nanze was not an easy task, and she even wondered if Mo Nanze might not be interested in women.
After all, why did he simply drop her at the hotel alone after she had pretended to be drunk and tried to seduce him following a client meeting yesterday?
However, Lu Yuzhen maintained a good attitude, knowing that to someone of Mo Nanze's caliber, seduction was nothing new.
Regardless, she was now Mo Nanze's assistant, and there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
"Wait a minute!" Mo Nanze suddenly called out to Lu Yuzhen.
Turning around, Lu Yuzhen could hardly hide her surprise.
"Lawyer Mo, is there anything else?"
"Help me arrange a dinner tonight with the chairman of Sea Light Group, and say that Shengnan is very interested in managing their company's legal affairs."
After he had spoken, Mo Nanze looked down at the documents again, not sparing any additional gaze for Lu Yuzhen.
Lu Yuzhen took a deep breath and flashed a bright and radiant smile, "I will take care of it immediately."
That night, Mo Nanze did not come back again.
Lu Yinfeng lay on the pink bed, continuously attentive to the sounds outside.
She was certain that before she couldn't resist sleep any longer, Mo Nanze had not returned.
She couldn't help but think that perhaps everyone was deceived by Mo Nanze's aloof exterior, believing him to be a man who practiced abstinence and was indifferent to women.
In reality, his nightlife was likely quite rich.
The next day, Lu Yinfeng decided to go back to the Mo Family Mansion to retrieve the bank card that Old Master Mo had given her previously.
Returning to the Mo Family Mansion, where everything had changed, Lu Yinfeng felt inevitably sentimental.
She quickened her pace and went to the room she had lived in before, pulled open the bedside drawer, and took out the bank card.
It was given to her by Old Master Mo when she had just married Mo Qianyan, with three million inside to be used as pocket money.
Lu Yinfeng had tried to refuse several times but could not persuade Old Master Mo, so she kept it in the drawer.
Now, this money could solve her urgent financial crisis.
Lu Yinfeng took the card and was about to leave, but accidentally glimpsed through the bedroom window several strangers in suits standing in the garden outside.
They seemed to be touring the mansion, looking around and pointing at things incessantly.
Lu Yinfeng was puzzled and hurried out to ask the old housekeeper of the mansion.
"Uncle Wu, who are those people? I've never seen them before,"
Wu Houbao saw Lu Yinfeng, his face showing difficulty, yet he knew that Lu Yinfeng was now the master of the mansion.
"Miss Lu, those are people brought by Mo Qianyan," Wu Houbao honestly replied, "As for what kind of people they are, I'm not sure."
Mo Qianyan, always Mo Qianyan.
Lu Yinfeng got angry whenever she heard that name.
She quickly walked to the garden and called out displeasedly to the group of men in suits, "Hey! Who are you, and why are you here?"
The men, upon hearing Lu Yinfeng's words, turned around in unison, fixing a tight gaze on her.
Lu Yinfeng instantly felt somewhat guilty, and her tone softened a bit, "This is my house; I didn't allow you to come in."
That's when a tall, scholarly-looking middle-aged man walked forward from behind, coming face to face with Lu Yinfeng.
He handed Lu Yinfeng a business card, speaking very politely, "I'm sorry to disturb you. This is Old Master Mo Qingfeng's residence, we were brought in today by his grandson, Mo Qianyan."
Lu Yinfeng glanced at the business card.
Sea Light Entertainment Group—Li Haiguang.
Lu Yinfeng was struck dumb and blurted out, "You are Li Xinzhang's father!"
Li Haiguang was also somewhat surprised, smiling as he asked, "Are you a friend of Xinzhang?"
Lu Yinfeng forced a smile, finding it hard to reconcile the scholarly and amiable middle-aged man before her with the rebellious youth from yesterday.
After a moment of silence, Lu Yinfeng asked in a serious tone, "What did Mo Qianyan invite you here for?"
"I have taken a liking to this mansion and would like to buy it, refurbish it, and turn it into a high-end club," Li Haiguang said, pointing to the mansion's architecture and describing his vision with animated enthusiasm, "Under the management of Sea Light Group, this place will surely become the most high-end and wealthiest entertainment club in Mochuan City!"
Lu Yinfeng frowned, displeased, cutting off Li Haiguang's words.
"I'm sorry, there seems to be some misunderstanding. The current property owner of this mansion is me, and I have no intention of selling it."
Li Haiguang was taken aback, a trace of indescribable expression appearing on his calm and composed face.
After a moment of thought, sizing up the young woman before him, he finally spoke, "I'm sorry, you have not introduced yourself, I don't know who you are."
Lu Yinfeng sighed, "I am Mo Qianyan's ex-wife. I can assure you that whatever promises Mo Qianyan has made cannot be fulfilled."
Li Haiguang's urbane, amiable expression collapsed, and his gaze sharpened.
He just looked at Lu Yinfeng quietly, making her feel a chill.
At that moment, the group of men in suits behind him suddenly circled around Lu Yinfeng, looking menacing.
The atmosphere grew tenser, and Lu Yinfeng clenched her fists, showing a strained smile as she tried to appear more formidable.
"President Li, although it's a bit impolite to say this, I must ask you to give up this idea."
Although scared, Lu Yinfeng thought that this was the Mo Family's turf; they shouldn't be hitting someone here.
"Miss, I think you are the one who is mistaken." Li Haiguang was silent for a while before smiling and saying, "In Li Haiguang's life, there has never been an option to 'give up'. Once I have an idea, I make it happen. Moreover, I've already made an agreement with Mo Qianyan and paid the deposit."
Damn Mo Qianyan! Lu Yinfeng cursed inwardly, angry that he would dare to commit such an act without consulting her first!
Lu Yinfeng would never let the Mo Family's Old Mansion become some sort of entertainment club!
As the stalemate continued, Mo Qianyan walked out from inside.
Seeing Lu Yinfeng surrounded by Li Haiguang's bodyguards, his alarm bells went off, and he hurried over, showing a pleasing smile to Li Haiguang.
"President Li, what brought you out here? Come, let's go inside and talk leisurely."
