From Dusk till Dawn!

Chapter 422: Familiar

"Maybe we should get the headquarters of Mo Empire shifted here," Mo Yuhan suggested ever so seriously. 

Tang Li laughed, "You want to be called a henpecked husband so badly?" She pressed her index finger on his chest, "Go now lest I feel like not letting you go."

In the end, he pressed a soft kiss on her forehead and walked out of the office very reluctantly.

Tang Li jumped from the desk as she sighed. The way she was desiring to cling to him...Alas, if only she wasn't the CEO of Ash Corporations then she might have applied for the position of President's P.A in Mo Empires. Sticking to him all day long did not seem that much of a bad idea. 

"Wow...Who is this goddess gracing us, peasants, with glimpses of her beauty?"

Tang Li tilted her head towards the door as she looked at Lin Shi who stepped inside the office, "Do you have to be so petty?" She pointed her chin towards the piles of files on her desk. 

Lin Shi narrowed her eyes,'' You think I am being petty?" She slumped on the chair, "I have been working my ass off. I don't have a bit of energy left to act petty."

"I have been helping you though," Tang Li walked around the glass desk before taking a seat on the swivel chair.

"I don't know how you manage the position of the CEO. I am half dead being the COO already," Lin Shi sighed, "How was your trip?"

Tang Li raised an eyebrow, "Trip? I wish it was a trip. But it was far from that."

"What do you mean?" Lin Shi straightened up. 

Then, Tang Li explained everything to her from beginning to end in brief. 

Lin Shi was left speechless, "You royal family have a lot on your plate to deal with," She never thought this matter was so deep, "No wonder Si Xiu is your cousin. She did not give off the vibes of a person with ordinary background," To this day, she still found it shocking that Tang Li is the daughter of Song Family. What's more now, the secretary also turned out to be the daughter of the Songs. 

Tang Li sighed, "You have no comments on your siblings?"

"Half-siblings. Ye Jie and Ye Lan are my half-siblings," Lin Shi shook her head, "I do not have much connection with the Lin Family, you know that."

"Are you still not talking to your father?"

The woman tied her hair in a high bun, "He is my father. I can't deny that. We do talk, once or twice a month but our conversations don't last longer than two to three minutes. It's not that I am angry with him but he cheated on my mother and that's a fact. It's not easy to forget all that..." She sighed softly, "But I have already moved on from all of it."

"Why is your neck red...?" Tang Li frowned. 

Li Shi froze for a split second before raising the collar of her top, "There was a power breakage in our area yesterday so there were a lot of mosquitoes."

Tang Li narrowed her eyes. 

"Cough...You said...Ye Lan likes brother-in-law?"

And that successfully diverted Tang Li's attention, "She does."

Lin Shi was silent for a moment.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Just stay cautious of her," Lin Shi spoke up after a long time, "She is not like her brother. Even though I have never interacted much with them but what I know should be more than enough. Ye Jie can be childish at times, but he is reliable and loyal. As for Ye Lan, that woman is very complicated to deal with. After their mother's death, Ye Jie had been more soft-hearted towards her. I just don't have a good feeling about it..." 

Tang Li waved her hand, "You are thinking too much. Even if Ye Lan wants to come after me, she has to think of a plan to tackle my security team..." She laughed, "I don't think she will want to mess with the royal families."

Lin Shi paused before nodding, "What you said sounds right. Maybe I am thinking too much."

"How is Ying Yue?"

"She must be busy with Zihan. I haven't talked to both of them since you left," Lin Shi shrugged, "Since Yueyue is on a break, I also haven't seen her on tabloids recently."

"That's weird. Zihan hasn't called me even once during these days..." Her pufferfish was not like that. He would not live past one week without whining to her about how tough it is to be the CEO of Su Corporations.

"He must be busy after taking over the position of the CEO."

Tang Li nodded, "I'll call him later."

...

Mo Empires.

"Long time no see," Qin Jingze smiled as he took a seat opposite to Mo Yuhan. 

The man raised his head from the iPad, "You're smiling too much," He pointed out. 

"Is my smile beautiful then?" Qin Jingze asked. 

"Ugly!" Mo Yuhan said distastefully. 

"To you, everyone is ugly except your wife," Qin Jingze wasn't offended though. 

Mo Yuhan nodded, "That's a point. She is so beautiful that the rest of the world seems ugly when compared to her."

A plate of dog food was thrown in the air landing straight at Qin Jingze and Secretary Yu who was standing beside him.

Before the former could say something, Secretary Yu spoke up first as he received a text on his phone, "President, one of the major investors of the Creptis Project is here to meet you to discuss some work-related matters."

"Who is it?"

"She is Lan Xingyu, the younger sister of Lan Xifan."

"Lan Xifan, as in the rising business tycoon in States?" Qin Jingze glanced at Secretary Yu who nodded. This Lan Xifan was the talk of the town in recent years. "I do remember the data as I was in charge of checking the investors' background," He glanced at his friend, "Mo Yuhan, don't you think this Lan Xingyu sounds familiar? Do we know her?"

Mo Yuhan's brows tugged together, "I don't remember her."

The man rolled his eyes, "You don't remember any woman except your wife."

"Do I need to?"
