CEO, You Look Like My Daddy

C189 The Ancestral Hall



C189 The Ancestral Hall

0A large group of people had already gathered in the ancestral hall of Mo Family early in the morning.    

    

Mo Wanshaan sat on the main seat while Jia Minnzhi sat beside him. Ning Jiwei sat below him. This represented the difference in status and identity between them.    

    

When Mo Tine came, she saw Ning Jiwei sitting there. She sneered and sat on the second seat opposite him.    

    

After waiting for a while, Mo Sheng still hadn't arrived. Mo Wanshaan frowned and said to Mo Tine, "Where is your second brother? Why hasn't he come yet?"    

    

"I don't know." Mo Tine said.    

    

Mo Wanshaan's face darkened. He ordered Yue Feng behind him, "Go and see what's going on."    

    

"Yes." Yue Feng had just walked out of the ancestral hall when he saw Mo Sheng lazily walking over.    

    

"Big brother, can we not hold meetings in the morning in the future?" Mo Sheng sat opposite of Ning Jiwei and said lazily, "You always make me abandon beautiful women and come here for meetings. You are going too far."    

    

Mo Tine smiled and said, "He did not have a marriage life, so he thought that other people did not have one."    

    

"How dare you!" Mo Wanshaan coldly scolded.    

    

Jia Minnzhi, who had not spoken the whole time, glanced at Mo Tine and said coldly, "Are you talking about me?"    

    

"I dare not." Mo Tine quickly waved her hand and said.    

    

When she said this, the ancestral hall was silent for a second. Mo Sheng coldly said, "Mo Tine, you talk too much."    

    

Mo Tine only calmed down after Mo Sheng spoke.    

    

The person she respected the most was not Mo Wanshaan, but Mo Sheng.    

    

Ning Jiwei raised his head and looked at Mo Sheng. He did not expect that Mo Sheng was also looking at him.    

    

Their eyes met, and neither of them took a step back.    

    

Mo Wanshaan looked at Mo Sheng and said the ultimate purpose of today's meeting, "You all know that I have been ill in recent years. According to the tradition of Mo Family, I have found my eldest son, Ji Wei. From today onwards, I will officially pass the position of family head to him. "    

    

"Big brother."    

    

Mo Sheng stretched his body and interrupted Mo Wanshaan's words. "You are too casual. Let's not talk about whether Ning Jiwei has the bloodline of our Mo Family or not. He had to follow the rules of the Mo Family and enter the Ancestral Shrine. If he passes three tests, he will be able to inherit the position of the patriarch."    

    

" That's right. " Mo Tine sneered and echoed, "Big brother, I know you are biased, but you can't make it so obvious. Originally, if you passed the position of the family head to Xiu Yu, I would have nothing to say, but you suddenly found someone from outside. Just say that he is your eldest son. Don't you feel that you have let sister-in-law and Xiu Yu down by doing this? "    

    

Jia Minnzhi who was at the side did not speak but when Mo Tine said those words, her expression became even worse. Her hands tightly grabbed the hem of her clothes as if she was forcefully controlling herself to calm down.    

    

Mo Wanshaan also did not say anything for a moment. Mo Tine looked around. She smiled and asked Jia Minnzhi, "Sister-in-law, where is Xiu Yu? In the past, Xiu Yu also had to attend this kind of family head meeting. Why did Xiu Yu not even have the qualifications to participate now?"    

    

Mo Wanshaan frowned and said, "Mo Tine, don't try to sow discord here."    

    

"You and sister-in-law are husband and wife. How can I sow discord between you two?" Mo Tine said quietly.    

    

"Enough." Mo Wanshaan said angrily, "I called you here today to discuss the matter of Ji Wei inheriting the position of the patriarch. There is no need to say anything else."    

    

Mo Tine smiled coldly and did not say anything. Mo Sheng said lazily, "Big brother, as long as he can prove that he has the bloodline of Mo Family and has passed three tests in the Ancestral Shrine, Mo Tine and I can't object even if we want to."    

    

"Mo Wanshaan frowned and did not say anything. Instead, Ning Jiwei, who had been silent the whole time, said," What are the three tests? "    

    

Seeing that he skipped the two steps of proving his identity and entering the temple, Mo Sheng raised his eyebrows and smiled. "It seems that our Young Master is very confident in himself. These three tests were simple, but they were just the most basic considerations. First of all, money. If you want the family to live for a long time, an endless amount of money is the foundation. Our Mo Family has assets all over the place. As long as you can complete a specific target within a month, you will pass the first trial. This should be a piece of cake for you. After all, I have heard some legends about the Maiteng."    

    

"What about the second stage?" Ning Jiwei asked.    

    

Mo Sheng smiled, "If you want to take charge of the Mo Family, you have to be smart enough to pass the test of the Hall of Bronze Men."    

    

There was no expression on Ning Jiwei's face, he just asked indifferently, "What about the third round?"    

    

"The third stage is even simpler." Mo Tine looked at Ning Jiwei provocatively and said, "If a family wants to be strong for a long time, they must form a bond with other strong people. As long as you can find a powerful family to work with, then you have succeeded. "    

    

Ning Jiwei did not have any reaction to the first two stages, but the third stage made him frown.    

    

The so-called "cooperation" between families was 90% maintained through marriage, but this method was obviously not feasible to him.    

    

If inheriting the Mo Family meant betraying Jian Haixi, Ning Jiwei would rather not have this power.    

    

"I..."    

    

Ning Jiwei was about to say that he refused the challenge, but he was interrupted by Mo Wanshaan before he could say anything.    

    

"Alright, Ji Wei will complete the three tests according to the rules." Mo Wanshaan said.    

    

"Alright." Seeing Mo Wanshaan's words, Mo Sheng stood up with a smile and said, "Then let's use a month as the limit. If Young Master can't finish in a month, then the position of family head..."    

    

"Please give up." Mo Tine added with a cold smile.    

    

Mo Wanshaan narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "If he finishes the three tests, then you can't have any objections at that time."    

    

"Of course." Mo Sheng and Mo Tine said at the same time.    

    

Ning Jiwei frowned and looked at Mo Wanshaan without saying anything.    

    

After the meeting ended, Mo Wanshaan called Ning Jiwei to the study room. He asked coldly, "Were you planning to reject the three tests?"    

    

"That's right." Ning Jiwei said, "If I were to marry in order to inherit the position of the family head, I would not do anything."    

    

"You..."    

    

Hearing his words, Mo Wanshaan said angrily, "That woman is that good? Is it worth you giving up the position of family head for her? Do you know what the patriarch of Mo Family represents?"    

    

Ning Jiwei sneered and said," You have chosen the position of patriarch, but it doesn't mean that I also want that position. "    

    

" Bastard! " Mo Wanshaan was disappointed and said, "Do you think you will be fine just because you have given up the position of patriarch? From the day you came back, you could only go up. Once you give up the position of patriarch, you won't even be able to protect your own life. How can you provide protection for your child?"    

    

" This is my matter, you don't have to worry about it. " Ning Jiwei said coldly, turned around, and wanted to leave.    

    

"Stop!" Mo Wanshaan said angrily, "Can't you use your brain?"    

    

Ning Jiwei frowned and looked at him in confusion.    

    

Mo Wanshaan was angry and helpless. He really wanted to scold Ning Jiwei, but he knew his son would never listen to him. Therefore, no matter how angry he was, he could only help him think of a way.    

    

"You still have a month's time. One month is enough for you to do a lot of things." Mo Wanshaan said.    

    

Ning Jiwei narrowed his eyes. Only now did he come back to his senses. "Do you have any information about the families of the other major powers in Xiang City?"    

    

Mo Wanshaan snorted and said snappily, "Later, I'll ask Yue Feng to send you to your room, but you have to think of a way yourself."    

    

Ning Jiwei nodded and looked at Mo Wanshaan. He said, "Thank you."    

    

This was the first time Mo Wanshaan had heard his son say thank you to him. He felt a little awkward. He waved his hand unnaturally and said, "Get lost. Go and do your work. If you mess it up in a month, I will teach you a lesson."    

    

"I won't fail." After saying that, Ning Jiwei turned around and left the study.    

    

Looking at his back, Mo Wanshaan slowly withdrew his trembling hand.    

    

This was enough for Mo Wanshaan.    

    

In the clinic.    

    

Lin Xiaodou had just come out of the bathroom when she saw her colleague Fang Gan waiting for her in the corridor.    

    

Seeing her come over, Fang Gan quickly went forward and asked with concern, "Xiaodou, are you alright?"    

    

"I'm fine." Lin Xiaodou forced a smile and said.    

    

Fang Gan sighed and said, "Why don't you take a leave of absence and rest? Seeing you suffer like this all day long makes me feel uncomfortable."    

    

Lin Xiaodou was stunned for a moment. She smiled and said, "I will be fine in two days."    

    

Fang Gan could only say, "Then tell me if you feel uncomfortable. I bought you milk tea and placed it on your table. Remember to drink it. "    

    

"Thank you." Lin Xiaodou politely thanked him.    

    

Fang Gan looked at Lin Xiaodou and said seriously, "Xiaodou, I am willing to work for you."    

    

Lin Xiaodou smiled and took a step back to widen the distance, "Thank you. I will go back to work first."    

    

Finishing, Lin Xiaodou quickly ran away.    

    

After seeing Fang Gan leave, Lin Xiaodou finally let out a sigh of relief.    

    

Ever since Fang Gan found out that she had broken up with Jian Chenrann, he had started to pursue her. It was useless for her to reject him several times.    

    

Furthermore, Fang Gan had sent her home several times. He quickly formed a good relationship with her parents. Now, when her parents saw Fang Gan, it was as if they were seeing their son-in-law. They even told Lin Xiaodou not to make things difficult for him.    

    

After work, Lin Xiaodou just walked to the door of the clinic when she saw the car parked at the door and Fang Gan standing by the car. She suddenly felt that she might as well work overtime.    

    

Seeing her come out, Fang Gan opened the car door and smiled, "Xiaodou, I'll send you home."    

    

"No need." Lin Xiaodou was just about to say no when Fang Gan smiled and said, "I've made an appointment with Auntie. I'll go over for dinner tonight."    

    

Lin Xiaodou was helpless.    

    

In Lin Family, Lin's mother was excitedly preparing dinner. Lin's father sighed and said, "Isn't it too much for us to do this?"    

    

Lin's mother glared at him and said, "Do you have the heart to let your daughter live alone with her child?"    

    

"That's not what I meant." Lin's father sighed and said, "I just feel that we are too anxious now. Furthermore, Xiaodou clearly does not like Fang."    

    

"She likes Jian Chenrann, but what about the result?" Lin's mother snorted coldly.    

    

Lin's father opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but there was a knock on the door. He could only turn around and open the door.    

    

The door opened and Lin Xiaodou walked in with a tired face. Behind her was Fang Gan.    

    

"Come in quickly." Lin's mother heard Fang Gan's voice and quickly came out to welcome him warmly.    

    

Fang Gan handed over the gift box and said, "Auntie, this is the health supplement I brought for you and uncle."    

    

Lin's mother pulled Fang Gan into the living room.    

    

Lin Xiaodou looked at this scene and felt that it was extremely absurd. The person who received this kind of treatment at their house not long ago was still Jian Chenrann. Now, she just broke up with him.    

    

Thinking of Jian Chenrann, Lin Xiaodou smiled bitterly. She took the bag and turned around to go upstairs.    

    

"Xiaodou, where are you going?" Lin's mother chased after him and said, "It's rare for Fang Gan to come here. You should talk to him."    

    

Lin Xiaodou impatiently said, "It's not like I asked him to come."    

    

Finishing, Lin Xiaodou angrily locked herself in the room.    

    

Lin's mother was helpless.    

    

"It's fine, Auntie." Fang Gan said, "I know that it is still difficult for Xiaodou to accept me now, but I will continue to work hard."    

    

Looking at Fang Gan, Lin's mother patted his arm in satisfaction and said, "You are a good child, I will cook for you."    

    

"I will help." Fang Gan said.    

    

"No need. Sit down." Lin's mother glared at Lin's father and said, "Talk to Fang Gan. Stop watching TV."    

    

"Got it." Lin's father could only put down the remote control. He turned around and smiled awkwardly at Fang Gan. "Are you busy with your work?"    

    

Lin Xiaodou had been hiding in the room until Lin's mother came up to urge her to eat before she went down.    

0

    

After the meal, Fang Gan stayed for a while. He saw that Lin Xiaodou was clearly getting impatient before he got up and left.    

    

Lin's mother warmly sent him to the door. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard the doorbell ring.    

    

Lin's mother looked at Lin's father, puzzled. "Who could it be at this hour?"    

    

Lin's father was also puzzled. When the door opened, they saw Yun Ling standing at the door.    

    

When Fang Gan saw Yun Ling, he was stunned for a moment before he turned around and said to the Lin Family's parents, "Uncle, Auntie, I'll go over first. I'll come and see you guys another day."    

    

"Alright, be careful on the way."    

    

After they sent Fang Gan away, Lin's mother frowned and looked at Yun Ling and asked, "Who are you looking for?"    

    

"Hello Auntie. My name is Yun Ling. I have something to do with Xiaodou." Yun Ling said politely.    

    

Just as he finished speaking, Lin Xiaodou, who heard the voice, walked over. She looked at Yun Ling in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?"    

    

Yun Ling smiled and said, "I came to see you. Chenran was too busy right now. Only Chen Yi and I were here. We were afraid that you might need something, so we came here to take a look."    

    

" We don't need anything. " Lin's mother's expression instantly changed when she heard that he was Jian Chenrann's friend. She did not even want Yun Ling to come in. She said, "You can leave. Xiaodou and Jian Chenrann had already separated. They had nothing to do with each other anymore. We don't want your benefits, and don't come and disturb us anymore."    

    

" Separate? " Yun Ling was stunned. He looked at Lin Xiaodou and asked, "Do you guys have any misunderstanding?"    

    

"Of course not." Lin Xiaodou said, "We are separated for another reason."    

    

Yun Ling frowned slightly. He thought for a while and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. Other than visiting you today, I also want to tell you. If you discover any abnormalities, or if you encounter any danger, you must contact me and Chen Yi as soon as possible. "    

    

Lin Xiaodou was stunned. She smiled and shook her head. "Thank you for your good intentions. But Chenran and I have already separated. Even if there is danger, it will not be my turn. You don't have to worry about me. As for Old Master Fu, I still need you to worry about him."    

    

Yun Ling handed over the locator he brought with him and said," To be safe, you should take this with you. "    

    

Before she finished speaking, Lin Xiaodou suddenly felt a wave of discomfort in her stomach. She did not have time to speak and hurriedly ran to the bathroom.    

    

Yun Ling looked at Lin Xiaodou's back and a trace of suspicion flashed across his eyes, "Auntie, what happened to Xiaodou?"    

    

"She's fine!" Lin's mother pushed Yun Ling angrily and said, "Whatever happened to her has nothing to do with you guys. Take your things and quickly leave!"    

    

"Auntie."    

    

Yun Ling still wanted to say more but Lin's mother had already closed the door in front of him.    

    

Yun Ling looked at the closed door and shook his head helplessly. He could only turn around and leave. He wanted to call Jian Chenrann after he returned and then send some people over.    

    

However, Yun Ling did not expect that before he could make the arrangements, an accident had already occurred.    

    

Mo Family's West Court.    

    

Mo Sheng looked at the photo on the table. He raised his brows and asked, "Are you sure Lin Xiaodou is pregnant?"    

    

"Yes." The woman sitting next to Mo Sheng smiled and said, "Master, you don't even know how weak her admirer is. Our men had already frightened him before they even made a move. He knelt down on the spot and revealed everything. "    

    

Mo Sheng stuck out his tongue and licked his upper lips. His index finger gently caressed Lin Xiaodou in the photo and said, "That's great."    

    

"Master." The woman asked worriedly, "I heard that Lin Xiaodou has a very deep relationship with Jian Chenrann. Furthermore, she and Jian Haixi have been good friends for many years. What if she refuses to explain?"    

    

"She will." Mo Sheng's mouth curled into a cruel smile. He said word by word, "If it was before, it might not be, but now it is different. People are afraid of weaknesses. Once a person has weaknesses, even if it's a shield that has been tempered countless times, It'll also become like paper, broken with a poke. "
