Chapter 1570: Mo Xicheng Reinstated! (43)
The people in the room looked at Mo Xicheng’s figure as he walked towards the door. Oddly, they couldn’t help but feel as though he was a hero in an awful situation.
Those who had voted for him felt a deep sense of regret and sympathized with the man.
Those who had not voted for him because they had feared that Mo Zhi would get back at them for it could not help but feel a tinge of regret for not having voted for him.
When they thought of Mo Xicheng leaving the company, they felt slightly reluctant.
Although Mo Xicheng had only been there a short time, they had communicated and connected with him in some way.
They had discovered that although the man was not familiar with the business, he took his work seriously and he was exceptionally brilliant. It never took too much explaining for him to catch on, whether it was finances or matters requiring emotional intelligence. For sure, he was a lot better than Mo Zhi.
They liked him as a leader.
So when Li Shu had spoken to Mo Xicheng, they had thought that she was going to warn him to not interfere with the company’s matters from now on, and they felt even worse for Mo Xicheng.
And as much regret and sadness they had felt then, they were now equally shocked.
What?!
What had Li Shu just said?!
Were they hearing things? !
And the next moment, Mo Zhi was shrieking, “Mom! What are you talking about?!”
Instantly, everyone in the room, including Mo Hai, was stunned.
They all looked at Li Shu in astonishment.
Although they had heard every word she had said, that whole sentence just did not make sense.
Or was Li Shu just careless and had said the wrong name?!
As everyone froze in a daze, they heard Li Shu repeate those words clearly again, “I said that I am casting my vote for Mo Xicheng!”
The confirmation came like a bomb that blew up the meeting room.
Ever one in the room turned to look at Li Shu in disbelief, even Mo Hai was shocked.
He walked over to Li Shu and gripped her arm, saying, “Li Shu, stop fooling around. Are you joking? How could you be casting your vote for Mo Xicheng?!”
Mo Zhi was worked up by now and added, “That’s right, Mom, what’s wrong with you? How could you be supporting this illegitimate son? Mom, tell us, did he threaten you? Did he blackmail you?! Tell us!”
Mo Hai looked at Li Shu and said, “Li Shu, say something. Did you say the wrong name?”
Li Shu was ignoring the two men now, as her eyes were fixed on Mo Xicheng.
She could no longer hide all the regret and sorrow reflected on her expression.
Mo Xicheng was her real son.
And she could finally announce it.
Her eyes filled with tears. She had held back and waited for this moment.
Since she had found out about Mo Xicheng’s real ident.i.ty till now, a month had pa.s.sed, but to her it had felt like years.
Mo Xicheng seemed to realize that Li Shu was experiencing something unusual and raised his eyebrows in surprise to look back at her.
He gulped with disbelief. After a moment, he finally spoke. He asked, “Why?”
Why?
The woman’s eyes reddened at once. She choked on the emotions welling up within her.
Because you are my son!
