Chapter 1585: How’s Dad?

Xi Mucheng was stealing money from the Shi family in such a self-righteous manner. Before treating everyone else as fools, he should see whether others agreed with his logic or not.

Ning Shu said to the secretary, “Inform the finance department that Xi Mucheng’s cooperation agreement will not be approved, and no funds will be allocated.”

Xi Mucheng’s project was moving tens of millions of dollars, and would be investing even more later. However, there would be no profits at all.

The secretary acknowledged and turned to call the finance department.

“Also, none of Xi Mucheng’s collaboration proposals will be passed,” said Ning Shu indifferently.

It wasn’t yet Xi Mucheng’s turn to make a fortune out of the Shi family’s properties. Besides, now that the old man had written his will, everything of the Shi family belonged to her.

With that taken care of, Ning Shu started to read the documents. At that moment, with a ‘bang’, the office door was violently pushed open.

Ning Shu looked up from the file to see Xi Mucheng walk in with a cold expression. He slammed a folder down in front of Ning Shu.

Xi Mucheng glared at Ning Shu. He then said in a haughty manner, “Why didn’t the cooperation agreement pass?”

When he went to the finance department to get the money, he was informed that his agreement wasn’t approved.

Ning Shu picked up the folder that Xi Mucheng threw over. She flipped it open, took out the document, and, without even glancing at it, tore it to pieces. “You dare to propose useless projects. Xi Mucheng, is your brain full of shit?”

Xi Mucheng stared at Ning Shu coldly. “Even if you don’t agree, there are plenty of people who will. The board of directors is looking to make money and take advantage of your situation. They’ll definitely agree once they see the handsome return from this project.”

Ning Shu sneered. That group of people would rather be killed than part with their money and give it to someone. And this new energy project? It was a complete joke.

“The company’s stocks have been going down lately, so I won’t be making any investments.” Ning Shu directly rejected Xi Mucheng.

Xi Mucheng narrowed his eyes, “That’s exactly why the company needs new projects to boost the stock.”

Ning Shu: Haha…

“No means no.” Ning Shu was full of indifference. “You can go now.”

Xi Mucheng narrowed his eyes and changed the subject, asking, “How’s Dad?”

When he said the word dad, his voice was very cold.

“Quite well,” said Ning Shu.

What was this guy up to now?

Xi Mucheng turned around and sat on the sofa. He crossed his legs as he said, “Speaking of which, I should also go see the old man. Where is he?”

So he was now targeting the old man?

“Dad’s fine, no need for you to worry. Your last name’s Xi, not Shi. It’s not your turn to care about how Dad’s doing,” replied Ning Shu coldly.

Xi Mucheng’s finger tapped his forehead. He stared at Ning Shu and said with malice, “Is the old man not here anymore?”

“You’re the one who’s gone; your entire family’s gone.” Ning Shu sneered.

When Xi Mucheng heard Ning Shu’s harsh words, his face was filled with killing intent. His eyes turned bloodshot, as if he was possessed. When he looked at people, it made them shudder.

“I really kind of miss the old man. Where is the old man’s hospital? I have to go see him. After all, I am also his son,” said Xi Mucheng.

Ning Shu sat on the leather chair and crossed her arms. “The doctor said that Dad needs to rest and isn’t fit for visitation. I’ll naturally tell you when he’s better.”

Xi Mucheng hooked the corners of his mouth and stood up. Before leaving, he didn’t forget to throw a sneer at Ning Shu.

It wasn’t long before a shareholder called to ask how Ning Shu’s old man was doing, suspecting that Ning Shu was secretly in mourning.
