Chapter 364: Chapter 365 Mo Yizhi’s Method
“You already know it, don’t you?” Mo Yizhi took a sip of tea, leaned on the soft sofa cushion, and smiled, “I can understand your feeling at the moment. You want to kill me, right? I have had this feeling before. Little Chu, do you know why I like you? Because you are just like me when I was young, including our experience…”
I vaguely felt that I was losing control of my emotions. I tried my best to suppress my anger and said, “I’m not here to listen to you talking nonsense!”
Maybe no one had talked to him in such a disrespectful way in too many years, Mo Yizhi was a little surprised, but he still maintained a calm smile, “Fine then, Little Chu, tell me what you have learned in just one night? Also, when I said those words, I wasn’t trying to flatter you or anything, you really remind me of my younger self. So as a reward, as long as your guess is correct, I will not deny it.”
This so-called reward was somewhat of the arrogance of the people who felt that they were superior to other people, but I didn’t mind it. In fact, this was exactly what I needed. With Mo Yizhi’s status, he would not lie to little people such as me. So I asked directly, “I don’t know how you found Ziyuan, or what difficulties she had encountered in the United States, but obviously, you took advantage of her difficulties and arranged for her to enter Fengchang and have sex with me. The purpose is to let me not resign and leave until the dust on the cooperation plan between Fengchang and the Third Lady has settled!”
“Most of them are correct, but don’t you think there is a contradiction?” Mo Yizhi said, “You have already promised me that you would stay in Fengchang for Fei’er and work on the Third Lady’s project. Fei’er also trusts you, so why do I need to do such an unnecessary thing to make you stay?”
The old fox just mentioned the contradiction, but he did not deny it altogether. It proved that my guess was correct, “Don’t try to mislead me. It’s not unnecessary. After all, you originally didn’t want me to stay in Fengchang, and secretly, you are probably still thinking that way.”
After I pointed out what he was thinking, he did not reveal any trace of panic. He was very calm, “I have never denied this, have I? There is only one reason why I want to keep you. That is Fei’er doesn’t want to see you leave. Fengchang’s future is Fei’er’s future. If possible, I certainly hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with the Third Lady to create a glorious future for Fei’er.”
“You used this reason to persuade me to stay at that time,” I interrupted Mo Yizhi and said, “Yes, You didn’t lie. You just used these flowery words to hide the real plan. You know Fei Fei still would not give up on me even if I left Fengchang. If you forced me to leave, it would only make Fei Fei hate you. So the best method for you is to let me stay, and then after Fengchang gets the cooperation project from the Third Lady, you can make Fei Fei give up on me.”
Mo Yizhi’s expression finally became a little bit stiff, and the way he looked at me was no longer that relaxed. Because he had promised me before, he couldn’t deny it. “You are right, this is indeed my plan…”
Having this kind of thought was very normal, and it was actually easy to see through. However, because I had underestimated Mo Yizhi’s fatherly love for Mo Fei, I didn’t expect that he would use all kinds of shameless tactics that did not match with his status.
I was really careless.
I smiled bitterly, “This is why you arranged for Ziyuan to join the company, and why you want her to be Fei Fei’s assistant. After I had sex with her, there are only two choices for me. The first one is to quit my job and leave Fengchang. There is no doubt that after I left, you would tell Fei Fei everything. You would also tell her that I quit because I didn’t want to take the responsibility, then she would definitely look down on me and give up on me completely.
“The second one is that I would not escape, and I would take responsibility. In this way, Fei Fei would have no reason to keep chasing me, and even if I wanted to hide it and be a two-timer, it would still be useless. Ziyuan is Fei Fei’s assistant. Because of her work, she would definitely spend more time with Fei Fei than me. So with Fei Fei’s intelligence, she would discover my secret relationship with Ziyuan sooner or later. Not to mention that the childhood sweetheart’s relationship is already very suspicious…”
Mo Yizhi didn’t deny it, he simply said, “Go on.” Undoubtedly, he admitted what I said silently.
“If I chose the first one, you may not lose the opportunity to cooperate with the Third Lady, but the offer would not be as great as when you have me. If I chose the second, you would get everything you want, so I won’t choose any one of those!” I drank the warmed tea in the cup, and then poured myself another cup of the hot tea. “Chairman, what do you think Ziyuan is? Do you know what chastity means to a girl? ”
“I know,” Mo Yizhi’s answer surprised me. He inexplicably glanced at the room where Mrs. Mo and Long Shan entered, and said with a trace of happiness and bitterness, “Some women don’t care about it, some men don’t mind it; some women cherish it. Some men regard it as their lifetime responsibility, and you and Miss Xue belong to the latter…”
“You knew that I would choose the second one?”
“No, I don’t think you would choose any of them like you have just said,” Mo Yizhi was unexpectedly serious. “It’s just that I didn’t expect you to come here only a few hours after getting up. After experiencing this kind of thing, not only were you not disturbed by panic and anger, but you could also think clearly and calmly. This is not something that everyone can do. Daring to take responsibility is admirable, because when you choose to take responsibility, it means that you may lose more. But you don’t have any hesitation when making choices, The sense of responsibility you have makes me ashamed as an old man…”
Mo Yizhi’s expression was a little rejected, as if he was recalling something sad in the past. His eyes were a little unfocused, and he murmured, “If I dared to make the same choice as you did back then, I wouldn’t have taken so many unnecessary turns…”
I didn’t know what unnecessary turns he had taken. It obviously had nothing to do with the things I wanted to know.
Realizing that he had digressed, Mo Yizhi smiled apologetically at me and said, “Actually, I could have denied it or kept silent. The reason why I didn’t do it is because I quite like you. You are a very smart young man..”
I said lightly, “I’m not smart. Maybe it was because Ziyuan told me everything.”
“I’m old, but I’m not stupid. Do you think you can fool me? But then again, this would only make me like you, even more, Little Chu. If it weren’t for the fact that you already have other women, I wouldn’t have minded Fei Fei staying with you…”
The meaning of his words was that he minded it now?
I knew my own limit, so I didn’t believe Mo Yizhi when he said that he liked me. Seeing that I didn’t say anything, he continued, “Your confidence is based on knowing your own limit. This is a very good thing. Most young people nowadays are blindly confident about their abilities.
“There are too few people who know their own limits clearly. You are an exception. As a reward, I will make an exception and answer your question directly. Miss Xue wouldn’t tell you that I asked her to do that. There are two reasons for it. First, if she said it, she would break the original agreement, and her difficulties would not be resolved. Second… If she really told you that, you wouldn’t come to me and ask me these questions.”
I didn’t understand the second reason, but the first reason told me that they had really taken advantage of Ziyuan’s difficulties and forced or induced her to do that kind of thing!
Knowing this, I was even angrier, but then I heard Mo Yizhi say, “Now you need to answer me a question. Why are you so sure that Miss Xue is not the Third Lady?”
