Nian Xiaomu’s gaze flickered for a moment. Looks like without even having to ask, Mo Yongheng’s assistant must be working for Mo Kun to keep a close watch on him.

Being around someone as paranoid as Mo Kun, Mo Yongheng definitely could not have lived these past three years well…

But, he obviously had other better options.

As long as he left the Mo Family, given his capabilities, he could lead a better life than this.

However, for the sake of her grandfather, he had stayed in the Mo Family.

Nian Xiaomu’s heart faltered for a moment and even her gaze towards Mo Yongheng was filled with some gratitude.

Mo Chengliang had said that Nian Xiaomu and Mo Kun were not to visit Mo Chengxian.

Given the opportunity now, Nian Xiaomu wanted to find out about her grandfather’s situation and also ask about today’s matter.

She had thought that Mo Kun would not want her to enter the company and would create obstacles to prevent her from doing so.

However, within just a few days, Mo Kun had actually given her the position of the Vice-President and asked her to take over the work as soon as possible.

When Nian Xiaomu had finished asking her question, Mo Yongheng looked up and pondered for a moment before starting to write down his reply.

It seemed that her question was something that he was not quite sure about either. Hence, he hesitated for quite a while and wrote down a rather long answer.

Nian Xiaomu waited anxiously while turning to look out of the office with extreme trepidation.

She was worried that the assistant who had gone out to brew coffee would suddenly return.

Finally, Mo Yongheng gave her his answer before his assistant returned.

“The exact situation is not clear. Mo Kun suddenly made me come back today, he didn’t say anything but merely instructed me to let you take over the work at the company. He also told me to arrange the colleagues who will work with you in the future.”

There was some elaboration following this.

“These people, as far as I know, are Mo Kun’s loyal followers in the company.”

“…”

Nian Xiaomu’s gaze flickered and a dangerous look flashed past her eyes.

So this was what he was plotting.

He wanted to plant his own men around her and with such restrictions, she would not be able to produce any results in her work.

Mo Kun would then have a reason to complain about her to the elders of the Mo Family, saying that she was not qualified to become the successor of the Mo Family.

But, he would not have imagined that Qi Yan had already concocted the antidote.

As long as they returned and treated her grandfather, Mo Kun would lose everything!

At the thought of this, Nian Xiaomu picked up the pen and swiftly wrote a time and contact number for Mo Yongheng to remember.

Having asked her to come and take over the company’s work at this point in time, Mo Kun must have received some news.

For safety’s sake, it was best if she got Mo Yongheng to pick up Tan Bengbeng directly and get the antidote from her!

She would then be responsible for staying here to distract Mo Kun’s attention and make him let down his guard.

“Okay.”

After understanding what she meant, Mo Yongheng replied her with a single word.

The sounds of footsteps approaching came from outside the door, and the two unanimously crushed the pieces of paper in their hands into balls and stuffed them into their pockets.

Their movements were fluid and without a tinge of hesitation.

When they were done, they raised their heads to look at each other after realizing they had done the exact same movement, the two were in slight astonishment.

It was as if they had both recalled something…

Nian Xiaomu’s memory of the past was still rather blurred.

She could only vaguely remember that when she went to school at Angel with him, she had often passed notes to him like that too.

Every time they were about to get caught by their teacher, they would crush the slip of paper into a ball and stuff it into their pockets with their movements completely in sync…

It was exactly like what had just happened!

Could she and Mo Yongheng have…

Nian Xiaomu bit her lip in hesitation, not daring to clarify her doubt.

The moment his assistant pushed the door open and returned to the room, Mo Yongheng had already stood up from his seat while muttering, “I’m going out to take a breather.”
