Soon, Mr. C revealed something else regarding a CEO from an enterprise. A few days later, that incident caused an uproar in the entire nation. He even reminded the public that the incident was related to the CEO's daughter.
That context suited a lot of people.
"Isn't that CEO Mu from Mu Group? There was a fire at his house. Moreover, he was busy with the incident where his two daughters exchanged exam papers!"
"I remember about it too. If that's true, then this man is really a bastard!"
"Didn't the police officers do anything about it?"
The post became popular on the internet because its title was quite interesting. Furthermore, there was money being invested in the post. So, Mu Group was pushed into a difficult state naturally. It only took one day to make the incident worse.
Papa Mu was busy and he did not have any free time to bother about it. However, the post spread in the entire Mu Group.
Mu Tangxue saw the post too. So, she showed it to Grandpa Mu.
Grandpa Mu was infuriated when he heard about the content of the post."Xue'er, has this post created a mess?"
"Grandpa, yes. There are around ten thousand comments discussing the post. The comments are quite nasty."
Mu Tangxue was frightened but she knew that it was not about her.
Grandpa Mu got up from the sofa after he heard her. He walked to the French window with his crutch. Then, he said to Mu Tangxue, "It looks like it's time for that bastard to give up his place as the CEO."
It was a mess now and everyone was keeping a close eye on Mu Group. How could the stakeholders and other members of the Mu family ignore that?
Moreover, that bastard promised the stakeholders that things like this would never happen again after the incident of the exam papers being exchanged. But, only a few days have passed by and the situation has already got out of hand.
Mu Group had resolved its previous issue after much difficulty. But, it met with another incident again.
"Grandpa, are you going to fire Dad?"
"What do you think? Is your father still capable of holding that post?"
After a short while, the stakeholders of Mu Group called Grandpa Mu. The four representative stakeholders requested for a board meeting.
Rumors were spreading. Everyone had their own stand and they argued among themselves. It seemed suspicious for everything to happen at the same time by chance.
After much consideration, Grandpa Mu replied at last, "We'll hold a board meeting tomorrow morning at nine o'clock at Mu Group's meeting room."
When Papa Mu left work, he felt weird as people were staring at him. They were throwing him meaningful glances. Moreover, there were a few people waiting for him at the entrance of the company building. They even stalked him secretly.
Papa Mu did not bother about them and his secretary was too afraid to tell him the truth. So, he was unaware of the fact that everyone was angry with him and gossiping about him when he reached home.
Grandpa Mu was waiting for him just like the night before as he was entering his house. Grandpa Mu was waiting for his son to return home.
"Dad, why haven't you gone to bed?"
Grandpa Mu turned around and took a deep breath. He said to Papa Mu, "There will be a board meeting at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. You're the only one who is unaware of it now."
"Why?"
"Nothing whatsoever. It's just that you could no longer hold the position as the CEO now, " Grandpa Mu sneered. Then, he prepared to go to bed but he was stopped by Papa Mu.
"What do you mean? Why do you say such a thing?"
"I warned you before not to annoy Su Zipei. I asked you to return my daughter-in-law's body to her. But, you didn't listen to me and you made your own decision. Now, you're going to suffer for it. Go and read what they wrote about you on the internet. As a result, the stakeholders have no confidence in you now. Everyone is eager for you to step down from your post, " Grandpa Mu told him the truth. He even threw his phone at him.
Papa Mu's facial expression changed drastically when he read the news on the phone.
"Dad! They've slandered me!"
"It's not slander if the others believe in it. Moreover, it has done a great deal of damage to Mu Group even if it is slander. Do you think that you still have the right to be the CEO now?"
"She's a woman but still she could find ways to get back at you. Did you think that it would be over if you burned my daughter-in-law's corpse?"
"You cannot look down on both Su Zipei and Qiqi now. They have a rich French guy supporting them!"
Then, Grandpa Mu went back to his room with his crutch.
Papa Mu realized that the incident had become quite serious. He immediately called his brothers in order to get their support.
But, his brothers did not side with him. They chose to talk about it the next day.
Papa Mu smashed Grandpa Mu's phone. He wanted to contact Su Zipei but she did not answer him. She totally ignored him.
"That bastard! Surely he's stomping his feet at his home now, " Su Zipei said to Mu Qiqi as she was looking at the missed calls she received.
"Aunt, surely he would think of another way to resist." Mu Qiqi understood her father very well.
"Just give him one night. I'm eager to see how many stakeholders he could meet in one night. How many things he could make use of in order to negotiate with them! Qiqi, let's go together tomorrow..."
"Of course, " Mu Qiqi said calmly.
"Wenhua told me that you're the one who wrote that post on the internet."
"How could I write with feelings if I'm not experiencing it myself?" Mu Qiqi retorted to Su Zipei.
Su Zipei realized that Mu Qiqi's eyes had become teary. She pinched Mu Qiqi's cheeks."Just wait and see. We'll be able to get our revenge soon."
Mu Qiqi nodded her head. She was eager to see how that bastard would be condemned and kicked out by everybody tomorrow.
"How come Young Master Sheng has not come to fetch you?" Su Zipei looked at the time. She found it weird because Sheng Xiao was never this late before.
"I also don't know."
Mu Qiqi shook her head."Maybe, he is tied up with some business."
What was bothering Sheng Xiao now was none other than the DNA report which Jing Yun handed over to him. Actually, the report had been ready after six hours of investigation. However, Sheng Xiao did not open the envelope to read its content after a long time.
There was no one else at the office. He was free to read the report but he didn't.
"Young Master, what are you worried about?" Jing Yun asked Sheng Xiao when he saw him like that.
Sheng Xiao crossed his arms and laid his forehead on the desk."You won't understand what I'm feeling right now."
He was both worried and nervous for Mu Qiqi. All he ever cared deeply about was Mu Qiqi. Since when did the reckless and ruthless Crown Prince have such a facial expression?
Jing Yun never saw him like that too. It was all because of Mu Qiqi.
"Let's get it over with. Give me the envelope." At last, Sheng Xiao decided to read and bear the results first since Mu Qiqi was dependent on him.
Jing Yun nodded his head and handed the yellow envelope to Sheng Xiao. Sheng Xiao took it and tore off the little string from the sealed envelope...
