Chapter 1460: The Great Blessing After a Disaster
Under the hospital’s treatment, Wen Xinya’s meticulous care, as well as Mother He and Mother Jiang’s careful recuperation, Old Mr. Mo had recovered extremely well. His damaged and torn heart muscle had already recovered fully and the doctor had already said that he could be discharged. However, Wen Xinya didn’t intend to let Grampy be discharged just like this as she felt that it was better to stay under the hospital’s observation for a while longer.
Old Mr. Mo objected to this slightly, but due to his granddaughter’s coquettish ways, Ninth Si’s unwavering support, and Uncle Zhang and the rest’s cooperation, under the lack of supporters, he finally caved in and could only bear with being hospitalized for some more time.
Wen Xinya’s life had also returned to its tracks because of this. She started to get busy with the heirloom sales strategy and keeping track of any updates regarding the International Jewelry Design Compet.i.tion held by the Milan World Expo.
“I heard that Old Mr. Mo has recovered pretty well. When is he expected to be discharged?” Since Old Mr. Mo was hospitalized for his critical illness, Secretary Cao had followed Old Mr. Wen a couple of times to visit him.
With the mention of Grampy’s health, an uncontrollable smile broke out on Wen Xinya’s face. “The doctor will conduct an in-depth examination of Grampy’s body in these couple of days. If there’re no issues, he’ll be discharged.”
All these years, Grampy had lived alone and been troubled. The sudden myocardial infarction this time had indeed been a blessing in disguise as it totally got rid of his silent ailment, which explained his swift recovery.
A sincere smile appeared on Secretary Cao’s face. “A great blessing definitely awaits Old Mr. Mo after this disaster!”
Old Mr. Mo’s critical condition this time almost attracted the attention of everyone following his entire recovery journey, and Missy’s tireless and conscientious care at his bedside had been praised by the ma.s.ses. Everyone knew that it was all thanks to his filial granddaughter that Old Mr. Mo could recover so quickly.
Previously, although Missy had been outstanding and attractive, people didn’t have a thorough understanding of her character. However, after Old Mr. Mo’s critical illness this time, everyone knew of Missy’s filial piety.
China was the country that emphasized the most on filial piety, which was the foundation of their ruling. It could be imagined just how good was Missy’s reputation in the upper society circle right now.
“Thank you!” Wen Xinya thanked sincerely.
Although Grampy’s illness this time had caused her great aggravation, as she accompanied Grampy whose health improved gradually, those feelings of self-reproach, guilt, regret, pain, and all sorts of emotions, buried deep within her from her previous lifetime, also dissipated bit by bit.
Towards Grampy, she no longer felt a sense of remorse. Now, she enjoyed the kins.h.i.+p even more.
Secretary Cao changed the topic into something more formal. “The recent progress for the heirloom sales strategy has been rather smooth-sailing. This project will officially be completed next month.”
Honestly, although the heirloom sales project wasn’t major, it held immense purpose for the Wen Corporation and any mishap was intolerable. Additionally, the investment for this project was also rather huge—regardless whether was it Wen Haowen, the Director’s Office, or the entire shareholders’ meeting had all their eyes on this project, hoping that it would bring not only immense honor for the Wen Corporation but also ma.s.sive benefits.
Naturally, Missy, being the one in charge of this project, was a subject of focus in the entire Wen Corporation, as this project would become a test of Missy’s capabilities, which was extremely important for her to take over the entire Wen Corporation in the future.
“Smooth-sailing indeed—around half a month earlier than my estimation.” A slightly meaningful smile appeared on Wen Xinya’s face.
It seemed like Wen Haowen had rendered her much help recently!
“Ever since Wen Haowen learned that the entertainment city project has been halted for unknown reasons, he has worked endlessly for the heirloom sales project. Previously, at the Director’s meeting for the capital funding, Wen Haowen didn’t voice any objections either.”
Previously, when Missy told him to reveal the halting of the entertainment city project to Wen Haowen, he had already known that she wanted to tie him down. Compared to the more heavily invested entertainment city project which could fulfill his wild ambitions, to work for the heirloom sales project seemed insignificant.
Cao Secretary was in awe of Missy’s cunningness.
“Any movements at Wen Haowen’s end?” Given that Wen Haowen had been suspicious of Ning Shuqian, it was impossible that he’d done nothing. Although she had always gotten people to follow Wen Haowen, when it came to his movements within the Wen Corporation, no one was sharper than Secretary Cao.
“Wen Haowen is currently investigating the reason for the sudden halt of the entertainment city project, wanting to strengthen his control over the project. However, everything is happening very secretively—even his secretary and a.s.sistant don’t know.” As the in-charge of the entertainment city project, Wen Haowen would naturally have unexpected advantages. Since he’d been the CEO of the Wen Corporation for so many years, albeit always being pressurized by the shareholders, he also had his own way of management and could do things secretively.
“I didn’t expect him to have such forbearance.” Wen Xinya sneered.
However, forbearance might not be a good thing under some circ.u.mstances.
A forbearing person must first have the wits, capabilities, cunningness, and plans to match it. Without these, forbearance could only become suppressed firewood—the more it acc.u.mulated, the harder it would explode.
Now, Plan S had already implicated Ning Shuqian, Wen Haowen, the Zhou Family, and even Xia Ruya, and couldn’t tolerate Wen Haowen ruining things.
Secretary Cao knew that this was a serious matter and said with a solemn look, “Missy, don’t worry.”
“Recently, Grampy’s health hasn’t been great and I’ve been too busy caring for him to have the energy for other matters. In the future, many things will have to trouble you, Uncle Cao.”
Ever since she took over the heirloom sales strategy, Secretary Cao had been following and a.s.sisting her openly. This made the ma.s.ses in the Wen Corporation understand that Secretary Cao was already under her.
Secretary Cao was conscientious in his dealings and would always complete the tasks that she a.s.signed him perfectly. Additionally, Secretary Cao had been by Grandpa’s side for many years and had gathered much commandment in the Wen Corporation. Many things wouldn’t go awry when left to his charge.
For this period of time, she was devoted to caring for Grampy. Regarding the heirloom sales strategy, she couldn’t care much and had left everything to Secretary Cao.
“Missy is being too kind. This is part of my job and isn’t trouble at all.” Regardless whether was it for the heirloom sales strategy or the entertainment city project, Missy had planned well—indeed, it wasn’t troublesome.
