Mo Xicheng looked at Mo Zhi and was about to speak when the man fired off again.
Mo Zhi did not let it go and continued berating him.
Mo Xicheng stayed silent and sat there patiently, staring into the space before him. He didn’t even hear what the man was saying.
After twenty minutes of this, Mo Xicheng finally snapped back to the present and looked at Mo Zhi. Just at this point, Mo Zhi was saying, “You are staying quiet precisely because you’re guilty! I know you haven’t managed to seal the deal with Director Wang. Director Wang’s investment deals are the toughest to negotiate. Now you’re quiet because you’ve bit off more than you could chew and you’ve been busted. Huh! If you’re really so capable, get the agreement signed!”
Upon these words, Mo Xicheng got onto his feet and said, “If you’re going to keep talking, I’m afraid the agreement’s off.”
Mo Zhi paused and asked, “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is that you’ve kept Director Wang’s representative waiting for twenty minutes. Are you intending to make him wait another thirty?”
Mo Zhi was stupefied and asked, “Since when have I kept them waiting for twenty minutes—”
At this point, he suddenly seemed to have realized something with a snap of his head. He looked at Mo Xicheng in disbelief. “Are you saying the person who’s e looking for you…”
Mo Xicheng nodded and said, “That’s right, the person who came looking for me is Director Wang’s representative.”
Mo Zhi immediately sprang to his feet and said, “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Did you give the chance to speak?”
Mo Zhi gulped and said, “That receptionist is too much. Such an important person and she just kept quiet?”
Mo Xicheng continued smirking and replied, “Did you give her a chance to speak?”
Mo Zhi: …
Mo Xicheng stared at him and continued, “Everyone has a certain amount of knowledge and sensibility. The receptionist must have known it was urgent since she decied to interrupt the meeting. I kept telling you to listen to what she had to say, but did you let her?”
Mo Zhi gulped and then started, “I- I was not aware, I—”
Before he could finish, there was another knock on the meeting room door. The receptionist opened the door and walked in, saying, “CEO Mo, Director Wang’s representative is a little annoyed, he’s planning to leave.”
Those words caused Mo Zhi to panic at once and he said, “What? They can’t leave! We will go over right away! Hurry up, let’s go!”
Mo Xicheng leaned back in his chair languidly to look at Mo Zhi. He reminded the man, “Didn’t you say that even if the gods were here, they were not to interrupt your meeting? So let’s not hurry, let them go. At worst, it’s just an investment project gone awry. Let’s continue with the meeting.”
Mo Zhi’s face turned a bright scarlet at Mo Xicheng’s caustic remark and scornful attitude.
Now everyone was staring at Mo Zhi, making Mo Zhi even angrier.
He frowned and said, “Mo Xicheng, you’ve already screwed up one project! Are you planning on screwing up another one?”
Mo Xicheng laughed icily and replied, “I screwed up? I was the one who secured Director Wang’s project. I just wanted to go over to sign the agreement, but you were the one who would not let me go, what could I do?”
Angrily, Mo Zhi replied, “Go now then!”
Mo Xicheng gave another icy laugh and said with dripping sarcasm, “I’m sorry, I’m in a mee
