Free Web NovelChapter 189: Chapter 189: Situational Awareness
Xiao Yu’an did not refute.
He was still thinking about Mu Ran and took out his phone to ask her if she had arrived.
He also sent her an emoticon.
"Yu An, you should improve your attitude." Mr. Xiao was deeply disappointed.
"I’m just being honest. You’re all working on so many projects now, but they’re all losing money, one after another acting like you’re blind. For now, Xiao Group can still rely on its heritage to get by, but in time, don’t be surprised if you all flee abroad with the money." Xiao Yu’an flipped through the project book and tossed it on the meeting table, "You discuss. I’ll try to sell my shares at the highest value when they go bankrupt."
Xiao Yu’an stood up and left. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"You, you, you..."
Mr. Xiao pointed at him, his hand trembling, furious.
He stood up to stop him, but staggered and almost fell.
Xiao Baocang hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Mr. Xiao stood up, "I’ll return to my office for a break, you continue discussing."
The others looked at each other, wondering how to proceed without him, knowing the final decision still depended on him.
Father Xiao raised his chin, "Later, when my dad goes to rest, you can discuss it with me instead."
Everyone: "..."
They politely declined.
Talking to him was worse than talking to Xiao Yu’an.
Mr. Xiao took the elevator to the top floor, looked at his tall grandson, and sighed, "I wanted you to act a bit impulsively and put on a show, but not to that extent. You’ve offended a lot of people now, how am I supposed to pave the way for you in the future?"
"They went too far."
It’s completely exploiting Xiao Group and frantically amassing wealth.
"Which large corporation isn’t like that?"
"Mu Ran’s brother isn’t like that." Because of his relationship with Mu Ran, Xiao Yu’an had gotten to know Mu Dixin well.
He and Mu Ran are very naive.
But regarding work, the siblings’ attitude is somewhat similar; they prefer to break rather than bend, won’t tolerate any injustice, and the Mu Group offers excellent conditions and is filled with talent, being the youngest and most dynamic group in the country at present.
"Mu Dixin is a madman. You don’t even know what he did at eighteen for the shares, for his family’s industry, avoiding it falling into others’ hands, utterly ruthless."
Mr. Xiao knew that Mu Dixin had quite a few deaths in his hands.
"Business is like a battlefield. He made his move, they didn’t cope well and resorted to suicide; that’s their business." Xiao Yu’an said coldly.
If Mu Dixin weren’t ruthless.
He and his sister would end up homeless, let alone the fact it was originally their family’s industry! fгeewebnovёl.com
He was merely protecting what was his!
"Things aren’t as simple as you think. We still need to follow social norms and handle everything a bit more gracefully. Mu Dixin’s personality is bad, his sister’s too, and there’s no such story of a young girl having such a bad temper heard in the circle. It’s just that Mu Dixin doesn’t plan to arrange her for a marriage; otherwise, she’d be hard to marry."
"She’s so wonderful, why marry someone else? She can totally choose a partner. Don’t presume that the men in the circle are any good; most of them have a bunch of women, and she’s very particular and wouldn’t be interested in such nonsense." Xiao Yu’an couldn’t bear to hear anyone speak ill of Mu Ran, "Besides, she hasn’t done anything wrong. Every time she gets angry, it’s just tit-for-tat. If others didn’t provoke her, would she lose her temper? Couldn’t others be a bit more perceptive!"
Mr. Xiao: "..."
Aren’t we discussing business?
"You’ve been fooled, and yet you’re asking her to speak. Why are you so cowardly?"
"It’s called speaking the truth, and she hasn’t fooled me. It’s all just your misunderstanding, we’re very much in love."
Xiao Yu’an raised his eyebrows.
Mr. Xiao was speechless.
He truly couldn’t say anything.
"Didn’t expect you to be such a love-struck fool."
"Not really, it’s purely because she’s great," Xiao Yu’an replied.
Mr. Xiao: "!!!"
I didn’t come here to watch you flaunt your romance.
"If you have nothing else, you should go back first."
"Okay."
Xiao Yu’an was ready to leave.
"Wait a moment..."
Mr. Xiao called him again.
"What is it?" Xiao Yu’an turned around.
"Did you reconcile with that little girl Mu Ran?" Mr. Xiao asked.
"Of course!"
Xiao Yu’an’s tone was indescribably smug.
"Forget it, I don’t care about you." Mr. Xiao waved his hand; naturally, his first choice for a grandson-in-law wasn’t Mu Ran.
Although Mu Ran has excellent conditions.
She’s the second-largest shareholder in Mu Group.
She possesses skills.
It’s just that this child... is too troublesome.
She stood up for her sister-in-law, offending so many people, and she not only offended outsiders but even cursed her brother like a dog, I heard they even had a fight.
Her temper is too volatile.
Not so good.
Ah!
Mr. Xiao sighed, he wanted to intervene, but since Xiao Yu’an entered the office, his gaze had been glued to the chat interface with Mu Ran, knowing clearly that he was 26, but if unaware, he’d think he was 16, like a young brat, thoroughly immature!
Speaking of which...
This brat is indeed having his first romance, it’s understandable to be swept away.
He didn’t inherit the trait of being emotionally promiscuous like his own father.
Ah.
Hope this young couple marries soon, he longs for a four-generation household.

Xiao Yu’an got into the car.
Finally received a message from Mu Ran, "Next time, you keep me up so late, I’ll beat you up!"
Xiao Yu’an grinned, "Then should we start earlier?"
Mu Ran: "Get lost."
"I’m at work, not chatting now."
Mu Ran was watching horror movie clips, squinting one eye open, "This sound effect isn’t scary enough, it didn’t even startle someone like me."
Everyone: "..."
No need to downplay yourself like that.
Mu Ran continued her commentary, and everyone listened to her opinions, waiting until after opinions on the film had been discussed.
Mu Ran asked the producer, "Are we ready to schedule the film?"
"Not yet."
The producer was troubled, hesitantly about to speak.
Mu Ran covered her ears.
"I don’t want to hear, don’t tell me."
Producer: "Okay."
Mu Ran really didn’t want to attend drinking parties; once such things start, there’s no end.
The main issue isn’t just the drinking itself, but hearing that man’s constant lectures while seeing those girls plastering themselves on them made a surge of anger rise.
At that moment, if required to drink, given her fierce temper, she might likely smash the bottle on someone’s head, leading that man to the hospital.
Then she wouldn’t only fail to please one person but offend many men instead.
One needs self-awareness.
Mu Ran knew very well that she couldn’t possibly please anyone.
"Consider other ways, negotiate well with my sister-in-law’s company’s people."
"Okay."
The producer left.
The assistant quickly added, "There are also several interviews here that you need to attend, plus you have to return to school to inspire the juniors..."
Mu Ran grabbed her hair.
Work.
It’s truly overwhelming.
