Mo Yan confronts Li Guoguo, who tries to take Mo Yan's contract. Mo Yan refuses, asserting ownership and rebuking Li Guoguo's attempts to curry favor. Enraged, Li Guoguo threatens to expose Mo Yan to Luo Tao and the company, but Mo Yan dismisses her. After Li Guoguo leaves, Mo Yan calls Huo Zhen, who reveals he gifted her Mo Real Estate, leaving Mo Yan conflicted.

“Do whatever you deem necessary,” Huo Zhen stated casually. He had complete faith in Mo Yan’s capabilities, and with the formidable backing of Huo Corporation, Mo Yan’s endeavors would undoubtedly be smoother.

Furthermore, since the company originally belonged to Mo Yan, this felt like a full circle return.

“You make it sound so simple.” Mo Yan let out a deep sigh. Previously, her role as a team leader had kept her occupied and anxious enough. Now, she was tasked with managing an entire listed company. The sheer volume of unfamiliar tasks made her head spin.

“I heard Mo Lian left dejectedly. Also, I informed Mo Dong that Mo Yan would be taking over the company’s management. He was so incensed he nearly swore over the phone. Yan Yan, aren’t you pleased?” Huo Zhen thought the phone call was quite remarkable and wouldn’t mind sharing the recording if Mo Yan wished to relive the moment.

Mo Yan considered his words and smirked knowingly.

“That’s true. You should have seen Mo Lian’s expression when she left earlier. It was priceless. I wish I’d taken a photo to look at when I’m feeling down in the future.”

Then, she shifted the conversation. “However, Huo Zhen, it would be best if you discussed things with me beforehand.”

Her intention wasn’t to scold, but merely to offer a gentle suggestion.

“Understood. I will definitely consult with you next time.” Huo Zhen’s tone softened, laced with a hint of indulgence. While others might be ecstatic in such a situation, Mo Yan was already concerned about his perceived extravagance.

“I’ve already booked the earliest flight back and will be returning soon. I’m informing you now so you can be prepared.”

“Huh?”

Mo Yan furrowed her brows. “Your injury hasn’t fully healed, and you should be resting. Why are you coming back? Can’t you delegate tasks to your subordinates?”

In truth, Huo Zhen’s injury was minor, unlike previous near-death experiences. This was merely a superficial wound. Nevertheless, Mo Yan’s concern was welcome. “My injury has largely recovered. I have other plans upon my return. Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“Oh. Alright.” Mo Yan nodded.

She understood that once Huo Zhen made up his mind, she couldn’t change it. Besides, his injury was already mostly healed when she last saw him. He should be fine.

She returned to the company with the contract. Upon reviewing it, CEO Song’s eyes sparkled, and she effusively praised Mo Yan. “Yan Yan, if not for the official seal on this contract, I’d suspect it was a forgery. The other party is Huo Corporation! We’re the first company to benefit from them like this.”

Mo Yan offered a polite smile. Perhaps Li Guoguo felt too awkward to remain at the company without the contract, and Mo Yan hadn’t had the chance to properly publicize the deal for her.

“I’m serious. Look at this contract. Huo Corporation isn't just contributing funds and resources; they're also shouldering the risk of losses. Yet, we don’t have to invest anything and will earn the majority of the profits. Is this a contract, or is it a charity donation? Such a deal is truly a blessing from the heavens. I never imagined such good fortune would find us.”

Mo Yan quickly closed the contract, forcing a smile. “CEO Song, please put the contract away safely. If Huo Corporation has a change of heart, make sure they can’t find it.”

“You’re joking. Huo Corporation has already signed and sealed it; they won’t go back on their word. Still, you are truly the company’s lucky charm. Whether it’s for a raise or other benefits, we certainly won’t overlook you.” CEO Song patted Mo Yan’s shoulder, encouraging her to continue her hard work.

Mo Yan responded with a charming smile.

“By the way, Yan Yan, while you were away, Su Hai’s secretary contacted us, requesting your presence. It seems they want to expedite our previous contract. You’re truly remarkable, not only knowing Huo Zhen but also having connections with Su Hai. Why not put in some effort to secure that contract too?”

“Su Hai?”

Mo Yan frowned. Too many events had unfolded recently, and she had genuinely forgotten about his existence.

While Su Hai might not appear serious, he was actually quite shrewd, making him difficult to outmaneuver.

“I’ve only met Su Hai once, so there’s no real connection between us. However, I will do my best regarding the contract.” After making a solemn promise, Mo Yan gathered her belongings and headed to the Su Corporation.

Much like the esteemed Huo Corporation, the Su Corporation stood as a pillar of familial enterprise. Their primary focus lay within the realms of real estate and finance, positioning them as undisputed leaders in these respective sectors.
