Chapter 516 - Betrothal Gift
Chapter 516: Betrothal Gift
“Dad!”
Lan Yaxin was a little touched to see her father care for her for the first time. He hadn’t cared about her since she was a child and only money could enter his eyes when she was growing up. This was the first time she felt her father’s love!
Tan Shilin couldn’t let her abort the baby!
“Uncle Lan, how can you abort a baby so easily? You don’t get to decide on my flesh and blood, but isn’t it just a wedding? Let’s hold it immediately. My mom is gone and only my dad is left in the family. Don’t worry, I will definitely give her a wedding!”
Lan Yaxin was excited to hear this. This meant that she could officially become the young lady of the Tan Family!
“Mmh, that’s more like it. In the future, don’t call me Uncle Lan anymore. I don’t think I’m much older than you. The betrothal gift is set at one billion yuan, which isn’t considered a large betrothal gift. This bit of money is a little difficult for ordinary people, but it should be a small sum for your family, right?”
Lan Tingyi took a sip of wine and spoke with satisfaction.
Tan Shilin was stunned when he heard ‘one billion yuan’.
When had he spent such money on a woman?
Tan Shilin looked at Lan Yaxin. This woman wasn’t worth so much money at all.
“Dad, one billion is too much, lower it!” Lan Yaxin said guiltily.
She still didn’t know whose child it was. It would be terrible if she wasn’t pregnant with his child.
“No! Not a single cent less. How old are you, 19?! He’s the same age as me. Look at him, he’s old and is almost old enough to be your father. If he marries you, he will have a child. What else does he have besides money? He must give one billion yuan as a betrothal gift! My daughter needs to be protected!
“She needs a house too, the kind with her name on the title deed. Besides that, she also needed a car, expensive gifts, and cash!
“Her mother isn’t around, so I’ll make the decisions for her!”
Lan Tingyi put on the airs of a father-in-law.
If it weren’t for the child, Tan Shilin would have chased him out!
He smiled.
“I’ll make it clear to my father, but one billion is really…”
“Why not? Let your dad talk to me!” Lan Tingyi crossed his legs and said.
“Mr. Lan, although our family is in the business world, we have recently invested in a project. You should know that the Mo Corporation has closed down and is in the midst of an acquisition. We have all our money tied up in the Mo Corporation’s project and really can’t fork it out. But don’t worry, I will tell Dad that I will not neglect all the necessary etiquette for Yaxin’s marriage!” Tan Shilin spoke kindly.
“Mmh, that’s better. Ask your dad to set a date for us to meet!” Lan Tingyi suppressed the joy in his heart and said.
Tan Shilin nodded.
Back at home.
Tan Shilin told Old Master Tan everything.
Although Old Master Tan was unwilling, his grandson hadn’t been born yet, so he could only agree to meet and discuss the price.
….
Mo Family.
Two months had passed and Mo Shengli had arranged to meet the Qin Family to get the contract.
Qin Tian brought the lawyer to the Mo Corporation’s conference room.
“Boss Mo, since I’m going to acquire the Mo Corporation today I would like to know something. I heard that the entertainment city project has found the Mo Corporation for cooperation, I wonder if it still counts.”
“You’ll have to ask them about this. The company is bankrupt and it has nothing to do with me,” Mo Shengli signed the agreement happily as he said.
The truth was that he had signed a contract with Corporation W half a month ago and transferred the company to Corporation W so that he could earn two portions of money.
Qin Tian was pleased, thinking that he had really gotten the Mo Corporation.
“Boss Qin, the Mo Corporation is yours now. We should snatch back the Mo Corporation’s market now!” the little assistant said.
“Of course, contact the Mo Corporation’s previous clients as soon as possible and announce it to the world!” Qin Tian smiled.
Elsewhere…
Mo Jinrong had mostly recovered and was prepared to be the president of the new Mo Corporation.
“Jinrong, the company has been taken down from being listed for acquisition and the Qin Family seems to have taken over the Mo Family Corporation!”
Lan Anran frowned. She suspected that Mo Shengli had taken the money from the two contracts.
“A double-cross! Mo Shengli is really greedy! But don’t worry, I’ve added a clause to the contract. No matter what happens, the Mo Corporation will be mine!” Mo Jinrong wore a tie and said.
“Are we going to show ourselves now?” Lan Anran helped him tie his tie and said.
“Crap! Boss, Mo Shengli is going to the airport. He seems to be escaping!” Fatty suddenly spoke.
“Don’t panic! Call the reporters over and say that there is big news. At the same time, spread the news of Corporation W acquiring the Mo Corporation!” Lan Anran spoke unhurriedly.
“Now, we will go to the airport!” Lan Anran and Mo Jinrong spoke at the same time.
In the car.
Mo Shengli was typing on his computer, looking at the money in his account with a slight smile.
Suddenly, his phone rang and a girl’s voice came from the other side.
“Dad! When are you coming back? I miss you!”
The girl’s voice was sweet.
Mo Shengli revealed a long-lost smile and spoke softly into the phone.
“I’m coming back soon, Lili, be good!”
“Dad, I’m scared. A few uncles came to our house today and asked some inexplicable questions before leaving!” the girl was puzzled as she said.
“Who was it? Lili, don’t be afraid!”
Mo Shengli comforted her.
“I don’t know. They asked me if I knew you, and I cleverly said no. Isn’t Lili very smart? Are those people bad people?”
The girl spoke as though she was asking for a reward.
Mo Shengli reminded her.
“Lili, you’re the best! Don’t open doors for strangers in the future! Dad has something to do, I’m hanging up. We’ll talk when I’m back!”
After Mo Shengli hung up, he called the nanny and asked her to take the girl away to somewhere else.
“Boss! Corporation W is one step ahead of the Qin Family!” the henchman looked at the news and said.
“Then let them fight amongst themselves!”
Mo Shengli looked at his account and smiled.
Suddenly!
Mo Shengli looked at his account again and saw that there wasn’t a single cent left!
He thought he was mistaken, but the money had truly disappeared in a second!
“Stop! Stop!” he shouted anxiously.
“Boss, we can’t stop on the expressway! We’re going to miss the flight!” his subordinate shouted.
“I told you to stop!” Mo Shengli shouted.
The henchman had no choice but to drive to the intersection of the expressway!
“Boss, what happened?” the henchman asked.
“The money is gone! The money is gone!” Mo Shengli shouted anxiously.
He immediately chased after the money, but the other party had set up a very powerful blockade and Mo Shengli was blocked.
At the airport.
Mo Jinrong and Lan Anran sat in the lounge and the reporters outside had arrived.
“How is it? Amazing, right?” Lan Anran bragged.
She had just extracted all of Mo Shengli’s money from his account. Not a single cent was left!
“I didn’t expect my wife to be so capable!” Mo Jinrong praised her.
