Chapter 246: On the Eve of the Banquet

As they were talking, the topic of conversation changed to Mo Yan. After all, it was a party organized by the Mo family. Whether Mo Yan would attend or not, they still had to ask.

Mo Yan picked up a piece of shredded potatoes with her chopsticks and said helplessly: “I’ll go, but not in the name of the Mo family’s daughter, but in my own name.”

Xu Wan was a little surprised. She thought Mo Yan would not go.

“Didn’t you break off all ties with the Mo family? Why are you still going? Won’t Mo Lian make things difficult for you?” Xu Wan was puzzled.

Mo Yan sighed: “She specifically called me and asked me to go.”

“Specifically asked you to go? That’s strange! Could it be that she’s trying to trick you to go and make things difficult for you?” Xu Wan asked.

“I’m not sure. She said that Mo Dong asked me to go. I think Mo Lian was humiliated in Hong Jing this time so Mo Dong deliberately made me go back to provoke Mo Lian.”

When she said this, Mo Yan seemed to be saying something very normal, causing the other three people to look over.

Was he not using Mo Yan as a tool? The person who wanted to use her was her father. How did she manage to be so calm?

Other than Xu Wan who knew the situation, Xu Wan was still quite surprised at Mo Yan’s attitude. Could it be that Mo Yan really did not care at all?

“You already know the reason, yet you still went! Isn’t this just being used as a target for others!” Xu Wan stood up for Mo Yan.

Mo Yan chuckled: “I can’t help it. That family has no bottom line. Mo Lian threatened me that if I did not go, she would attack my family. Anyway, if I go alone, she can only humiliate me.”

“Threaten you? Call the police! What kind of person is this? Her family is having a lousy banquet and she still wants you to go.” Xu Wan said angrily.

“I don’t have any evidence. It’s useless to call the police. Anyway, she’s just saying it now. If something really happens, we’ll talk about it later!”

Xu Wan could hear the helplessness in Mo Yan’s tone, but she could not do anything about it.

On the other side, Qiao Li and Zhao Xin looked at each other and said: “Don’t worry. We’ll go tonight too. We won’t let Mo Lian bully Mo Yan.”

Mo Yan could not help but burst into laughter when she saw their worried expressions.

“Don’t worry, the most Mo Lian could do will be to humiliate me. She won’t do anything else.”

Mo Yan could tell from these few incidents that Mo Lian wanted to humiliate her and see her make a fool of herself, but she did not have the guts to do something that would kill her. So as long as she was more vigilant, nothing big should happen.

“Okay, then you should be more careful.”

After Xu Wan said that, she started to talk about other topics. After all, no one was in a good mood when it came to Mo Lian.

While Mo Yan was having a heated conversation, Li Guoguo was not having a good time.

Ever since Mo Yan revealed her stakes to her that day, she did not dare to casually look for Mo Yan. However, everyone in the office knew that she had a good relationship with Mo Yan and often asked her about Mo Yan and the stocks.

When it came to the stocks, Li Guoguo thought of what Luo Tao had said.

“If you don’t understand something, don’t meddle in it.”

She always felt that Luo Tao’s words did not only refer to the stocks but also to her unspeakable thoughts.

No girl would not be moved by such a handsome, elegant, and capable man. Why would Mo Yan be so harsh to her? She only had a crush on her and did not confess. Why would Mo Yan expose her like that?

Thinking of this, Li Guoguo could not help but feel a little resentful.

Li Guoguo thought of Mo Yan’s husband and her boyfriend, and her eyes reddened slightly.

In the past, she had always thought that Mo Yan’s husband was only good-looking but had no money and had to be supported by Mo Yan. If she found a rich man, she would always be like Mo Yan.

But now, comparing Mo Yan’s husband who was only capable and did not show it, and her boyfriend, who relied on his family’s money but had no looks or figure and not only cheated on her but also dumped her, how could she tolerate that?

“Eh? Guoguo, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you eating?” A colleague asked.

Li Guoguo calmed herself down and said: “Nothing! I just thought of something.”

“Thought of something? The stock issue? Guoguo, let me tell you, Manager Mo’s husband is really amazing! I saw that the stocks he recommended are rising these days! I’ve earned a few hundred in these few days!”

The female colleague took out her phone and opened the stock market APP. She said while showing it to Li Guoguo.
