Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 458

Chapter 458: Blackout, Darkness, Mo Jingshen, A Forced Kiss (5)

Seeing that Ji Mengran directly led the topic to the investment, Mrs. Xu took a glance at her with a smile. “Since you are also in this industry, why didn’t you cooperate with your sister to develop MN Group? By the way, Chairman Ji is getting old, and you two will inherit the Ji Corporation sooner or later. Now that CEO Ji has already the MN Group and doesn’t have enough energy and time, you’ll be in charge of the Ji Corporation in the future, won’t you?”

If Ji Hongwen really intended to give everything to Ji Mengran, she would not have to follow Sheng Yihan like a dog every day, nor did she need to look all around for investment.

The problem was that after Ji Mengran came back after disappearing for more than a year, Ji Hongwen was very angry at her although he didn’t drive her out of the Ji family. And because what she once did to Ji Nuan, Ji Hongwen said that he would rather donate the Ji family’s properties than giving them to Ji Mengran to squander.

Ji Hongwen probably had planned to give the Ji Corporation to Ji Nuan. If Ji Nuan, who already owned MN Group, also had the Ji Corporation, she would have her tail up to the air.

Thinking of this, Ji Mengran suddenly felt really bad, but she couldn’t work out a way to change Ji Hongwen’s mind. After all, Ji Hongwen was still healthy now, and after she exposed who Ji Nuan’s biological father was, it wouldn’t be so easy for her to take over the Ji Corporation.

“Mrs. Xu, my father is only in his fifties. Although the Ji Corporation has a lot of trifles to deal with, he can run the company for another ten or twenty years. It is too early to discuss who will inherit the family business. Besides, if I want to inherit our family business, I’ll have to do it on my own merits, and I’ll have to spend more years in the business industry.” Ji Mengran went on, “So I opened a studio to train myself lest I don’t know how to run the Ji Corporation when I take it over.”

Mrs. Xu nodded. “Yes, you are right to think so. Although the Ji Corporation is not as influential as it once was, its business foundation still exists in every city in China. It’s not so easy to run such a big company. It’s right for you to get more experience in the business industry.”

With that, Mrs. Xu smiled and looked at Ji Nuan, who had been very quiet and did not chime in. “CEO Ji, you’re very quiet today. As the most successful daughter of the Ji family, don’t you have anything to say?”

Ji Nuan smiled calmly. “I’m just listening to you and Mengran talk. As you said, I’ve already had enough pressure just managing MN Group. As for taking over the Ji Corporation, I’m afraid I don’t have enough time and energy to do it even if I have a chance, so I have never considered taking over the Ji Corporation. After all, the MN Group is now involved in many industries, which are profitable both at home and abroad. If Mengran needs to take over the Ji Corporation to live on, I will certainly not scramble with her for it.”

In Ji Mengran’s ears, although Ji Nuan’s words sounded like a concession, Ji Mengran could clearly feel Ji Nuan’s contempt for her.

To take over the Ji Corporation to live on, so she meant that her studio wouldn’t last long or have any development, and she would have to go back to the Ji family and live on the Ji family’s business?

Hearing Ji Nuan’s words, Mrs. Xu chuckled. “Yes, MN Group is really a dark horse in Chinese business circles in recent years. You can dominate the Internet technology and real estate industries, which shows that you have a sharp eye on business opportunities. I have confidence in MN Group.”

Feeling it seemed that Mrs. Xu was going to give the investment to Ji Nuan, Ji Mengran hurriedly took out a delicate square box from the bag she had been carrying and said with a smile, “Mrs. Xu, I was talking and almost forgot. This is a gift for you from our studio.”

“Oh, a gift?” Mrs. Xu looked at her with a loving smile. “You’re too polite. Why do you give me a gift?”

Before Mrs. Xu finished, Ji Mengran had opened the box, in which there was a newly released Patek Philippe watch, looking exquisite and expensive.

Mrs. Xu just took a look at the watch but didn’t take the box. She looked at the expensive outfit of Ji Mengran and the bag worth hundreds of thousands of yuan she carried, and said mildly, “Miss Mengran is really generous. This watch is not cheap.”

“It is not very expensive. I just want to give it to you as a welcome gift. I hope you can like it.”

Mrs. Xu looked at her gently for a moment, then gently closed the watch box and then turned to look at Ji Nuan, without taking the box. “You two came to me today to talk about the investment, but we have been talking about the past because of me. Let’s go upstairs and talk about your projects.”

Ji Nuan nodded and raised her hand to ask Mrs. Xu to enter the elevator first.

Seeing Mrs. Xu refusing to take her gift, Ji Mengran hurriedly followed them into the elevator, asking carefully, “Mrs. Xu, don’t you like this watch? Or you don’t like to wear a watch? I can choose another gift for you. Would you like some antique paintings or something else…”

Mrs. Xu looked at her and smiled. “I won’t accept anything from you. I came to meet you kids for the sake of Chairman Ji. I have my own plan for the investment, and you don’t have to please me by sending me gifts. Since your studio is so underfunded, you might as well return the million-dollar watch. You don’t have to spend so much money on me. Why do you make things difficult for yourself?”

Ji Mengran froze.

Ji Nuan glanced at her and said indifferently, “Mrs. Xu’s meaning is since you came here to seek investment in your studio, what you should do is to introduce your studio’s strengths. Do you think Mrs. Xu lacks a Patek Philippe watch or antique paintings? With Mrs. Xu’s financial resources, if she likes something, she can buy it herself, so she doesn’t want anything. You don’t have to do this.”

Ji Mengran glared at Ji Nuan, who just glanced at her casually, with an elegant smile on her lips, and didn’t look aggressive at all.

But Mrs. Xu did not refute Ji Nuan’s words. Ji Mengran clenched the bag and slowly put down her hand, giving up the intention to send a gift to Mrs. Xu.

As the elevator stopped on the sixth floor of the mall, the three women walked out. Ji Mengran kept talking about her studio all the time, whereas Ji Nuan listened with a smile on her face, without interrupting her or rushing to talk about her company. She just listened to Ji Mengran’s chattering for fun, looking at the goods around from time to time while walking.
