Chapter 1491: He Is My Son (64)
s.h.i.+ Nianyao: [That busy?]
After this message, another one followed closely: [But this shows that my idol is an important person in the office. Go work hard then!]
When Mo Xicheng read that last sentence, he instantly smiled. This turned his gloomy face bright and cheerful at once.
He continued to stare at his cell phone for a while. Then he stood up, intending to go to the pantry to get a coffee.
As he approached the pantry and was just about to step in, he heard people discussing his arrival enthusiastically in there.
“Ah, have you seen Male Idol Mo? He looks better in real life that on screen! In the films, sometimes he wears a beard and things like that, and doesn’t look as good as in real life.”
“So what if he’s good looking? He’s still our Big CEO Mo’s illegitimate son. And didn’t you see what happened during the meeting this morning? When Senior CEO Mo spoke, he didn’t even talk back.”
“Senior CEO Mo?”
“That’s CEO Mo Zhi. You have to make a distinction between them. CEO Mo Zhi is older, so people refer to him as Senior CEO Mo. Mo Xicheng is Junior CEO Mo!”
“Oh, is that how it is? So in the clash of the t.i.tans today, who won and who lost?”
“Need we say more? Of course Senior CEO Mo won. You have no idea how pitiful Junior CEO Mo is. The Human Resource Department has allocated him an office that can’t be used. It is getting hotter lately and the air conditioner in that room is broken. Plus that room has a full-length window that faces the sun. That room is like a steamer.”
“Oh, I thought that the air conditioner in that room worked. You mean it’s broken?”
“If Senior CEO Mo says it’s broken, then it’s broken.”
Then someone said with an enlightened tone, “Ohhhh, right…”
As they were speaking, Mo Xicheng walked in and slowly made his way to the coffee machine, turning it on to make his own coffee.
The two people who were conversing were immediately stunned when they saw Mo Xicheng and they stood rooted to the ground. They watched Mo Xicheng make his coffee and then stared at him as he took his coffee and walked out of the pantry—all the while pretending that he had heard nothing.
The two of them looked at each other, lowered their heads and fell silent. They quietly went back to their work stations to carry on with their work.
After Mo Xicheng got his coffee, he walked back to his office.
He looked in from the entrance. The door was open. As he stood at the doorway, he could feel a wave of heat was.h.i.+ng over him. The difference in temperature between the inside of the office and the outside was distinct.
He lowered his gaze for a while, then looked at the worker sitting nearby and sneered, “Get me the Human Resource Manager.”
Although that person was not a staff of Mo Xicheng’s department, he got up without hesitating and quickly ran over to the Human Resource Department. After a long time, the HR manager appeared, making his way slowly towards Mo Xicheng.
Standing before Mo Xicheng now, he looked at the man and asked, “CEO Mo, how may I help you?”
Noticing that Mo Xicheng was standing outside and had not entered his office, he said with a smile, “Actually, you could have called me and I would have come over. Asking someone to come round looking for me is a waste of time.”
Mo Xicheng lifted his gaze upon hearing this. He turned to glance at his office and suddenly smiled, saying, “I was looking for you to discuss something.”
Having said this, he pointed at his office and said, “Come in.”
