Chapter 139 - Confession

After Luo Tao left, Mo Yan was about to call Xu Tian and tell her everything.

Because after she realized who wanted to kidnap her last night, she understood that they definitely would not win the project. She had to tell Xu Tian and Li Guoguo the reason.

However, compared to Li Guoguo, Mo Yan felt that Xu Tian was much more mature and would be able to handle the news better.

To delay Luo Tao from coming back so soon, Mo Yan specially sent him a text message before the call, hoping that he would go to Mo Nuan to buy her a drink.

After she was ready, Mo Yan dialed the number anxiously.

“Hello, Sister Xu, this is Mo Yan.”

“Yes.”

Xu Tian’s voice was faint on the phone, Mo Yan could tell that Xu Tian was not in a good mood. Thinking back to the conversation that ended on bad terms between the two of them, Mo Yan felt a little awkward. She did not expect so many things to happen.

“Sister Xu, is there anyone beside you? I have something to tell you in private.”

There was a moment of silence on the other side. After a while, Xu Tian said, “There’s no one else.”

After organizing her words, Mo Yan talked about what Chen Ya did before they left C City, as well as her thoughts and what happened after they arrived in Jing City. This included the people she had met last night and the various connections she had with Mo Lian.

The conversation took a long time. After Mo Yan finished speaking, Xu Tian was silent for a long time before she asked, “Why are you telling me this?”

“I think by default we won’t win the project. I hope you can understand.”

Mo Yan knew that she was trying to shirk responsibility, but she could not let Xu Tian distance herself from her because the project had failed.

Xu Tian sneered, “If it weren’t for you, we would have won the project. Moreover, the enmity with Chen Ya is also a problem between you and Chen Ya. Us losing the project is all your fault. Do you think I can forgive you?”

Mo Yan frowned slightly and said with a dark expression, “Sister Xu, if you really think that. way, you probably won’t tell me this.”

“First of all, the personal conflict between me and Chen Ya, to be precise, should be the power struggle between CEO Song and the Deputy General Manager. Expanding into Jing City is related to the development of the company. Without the Deputy General Manager’s permission, no matter how much Chen Ya hates me, she wouldn’t dare to tamper with the documents. Second, I don’t believe what you say is what you truly believe. You previously said that you didn’t want us to get the project because of our good relationship with the Lin Group’s executives. Seeing what type of person the young master is, would you even accept to collaborate with Lin Group? Even if we do accept the project, if the Lin family’s young master makes such a request in the future, are you willing to send your subordinates to his bed?”

Mo Yan chuckled as she spoke.

On the other side, the corners of Xu Tian’s lips curled up slightly. Mo Yan was right. There was no sense of security when working with such a person.

Once they took the first step to expand their market into such a circle, Hong Jing would definitely become the Lin family’s young master’s beauty contest venue in the future.

However, Xu Tian was not going to let Mo Yan off so easily. She said, “You have no proof. Just based on the license plate number alone, you’re saying that the Lin family’s young master harbors ill intentions towards you? Mo Yan, you need evidence to back up your theories.”

Unlike the time with Zhou Shuai, the reason why Mo Yan took the risk was to obtain evidence, therefore, she could confidently reply to Xu Tian, “Mo Lian’s cell phone data is being repaired. Together with my statement and Mr. Du’s car recording device, the truth should be revealed very soon.”

“I’ll wait and see.”

Xu Tian’s words indicated that this matter could be put aside for the time being. There were other matters that needed to be asked, “Other than these, why are you telling me about your stepsister?”

When Mo Yan talked about last night, she naturally had to mention Mo Lian and Mo Lian’s relationship with her.

“I hope you can help me hide the fact that I’m in the hospital from Guoguo.”

“Is it because of the way Li Guoguo addressed you?” Xu Tian asked.

“Not exactly,” Mo Yan thought for a moment before answering, “I can only be friends with Guoguo.”

This was a sentence that had yet to be finished, and the following sentence was ‘There are many things that I can’t let her know.’

Xu Tian also understood what she meant, and there was a hint of surprise in her calm voice. “When I heard you say that you didn’t mind her scheming, it meant that you were willing to be vulnerable with her.”

“I don’t mind her scheming, because her scheming has always been for her own benefit and has never harmed anyone else. But I don’t dare to be vulnerable with her.” Mo Yan smiled bitterly.

“Looks like you’re not totally dumb.”

This was Xu Tian’s evaluation of Mo Yan.
