Chapter 113: Holiday Over, Departure for the Capital

  Chapter 344: Romantic Wedding

  Because there were many people, Su Mo didn't go to the shopping area in the mall for inspection first, but instead entered the management area of the mall with everyone else, starting to inspect the management area that actually controlled various activities and work within the mall.

  First, I went to the planning department, a company's planning department is usually the most important soul department. Before even entering the planning department, I could already hear the sound of keyboards clacking away, a tense atmosphere spreading out, allowing Su Mo at the door to clearly feel it.

  "Chairman—"

  Just as someone was about to ask Su Mo if she wanted to go in and take a look, Su Mo had already raised her hand to stop them, her eyes calm and collected. "Let them be busy, we won't go in and disturb them." Who was pretending and who was really doing something, her eyes weren't blind, she could still tell.

  "You guys stay here, I'll go downstairs with Huichen and take a stroll around." Then, she said to Huichen, "Huichen, do you know where the stairs are? We'll take the stairs."

  "You all stay here." Huaiqin instructed her subordinates before heading towards the staircase with Sumo.

  Huiqin first took Sumo to the men's clothing area. Although men do not like to stroll around these shopping malls, the males who come here to consume are all elites from the business and political circles, busy people. However, during this shopping week, there were still many men and women walking in the men's clothing area, picking out clothes for each other, making it a lively scene.

  Watching the sales staff with elevator smiles on their faces, respectfully taking out cards to swipe and politely asking customers if they need door-to-door delivery, because this activity was previously proposed by Su Mo as free, so in the past week it has also become familiar to these customers. The customer nods slightly, and the sales staff will politely bring the purchased items to the customer's face for inspection, then pack them up and put them aside. After the customers leave, they will notify the dedicated flower delivery staff to deliver the goods to the customer's home.

  "Chairman, the activity plan you proposed is really good. This week, not only has our sales volume risen sharply compared to before, but also the customers' evaluation of our shopping mall has been increasing steadily." The shopping mall under the Mu Group already had a certain advantage, possibly like chain hotels, because of the Mu Group's international reputation, people have always been consuming subconsciously for this brand. However, now the mall has added many new customers, and there has also been a significant improvement in the external evaluation of the mall.

  "Uh-huh." He nodded slightly, not paying much attention to the matter, and immediately shifted his gaze to a nearby clothing store. It was a men's clothing store, but there weren't many customers inside. The sales staff looked rather lazy, leaning against the clothes rack with their body relaxed, like someone without bones. Their eyes were also somewhat dazed, clearly showing that they hadn't woken up yet after coming to work early in the morning.

  "Who is she?" Someone like that, who can be so blatant in the mall, and still during the hot Golden Week, probably doesn't have any backing. She had heard before that in such a large group, employees with some backing would do things without fear, and this girl's appearance and clothing showed that her family background was not ordinary either. However, she has a strange temper, people who receive salary under her must follow her rules to do things, otherwise, no matter how big your backing is, you will also be fired.

  Huiqin looked at him for a while, then honestly replied, "That girl is the daughter of our company's veteran. Originally, according to the boss's intention, she was supposed to be given a high position to let her live a leisurely life. However, this girl refused and only hoped to come to this store as a salesperson, and especially insisted on going to this one. We don't know the reason either, but we still agreed with her idea. However, business in this store is generally not very good, which also puzzles us..."

  "If you can't do it well, let her go." Su Mo's expression was cold and calm, not thinking that just because he was a company elder, his descendants could be so reckless as to ruin the image of the commercial service sector.

  “……But……” Huī qín listened to Sū Mò Ruò's words, her face filled with difficulty. After all, it had been many years since then. The store's annual sales were always subsidized by the company itself, but the boss never had any objections. How could she go back and say anything now that Sū Mò Ruò brought it up? Thinking of Mù Xīn Huá's special care for this store and this girl, she found herself at a loss for words.

  "What's wrong, is it difficult?" Turning her head to look at Huiqin, Sumo's tone was light and flat, with no hint of emotion.

  "...it's like this, the boss has never mentioned any performance issues with this store." Huichen hesitated for a moment before telling the truth.

  Her eyebrows slightly furrowed, but Su Mo still showed respect for Mu Xinhua. Now that she heard Huiqin's words, she didn't continue speaking and knew there might be some hidden reason behind it. Although her style was quite tough in this area, she decided to put the matter aside for now and discuss with Mu Xinhua after returning home on how to handle it.

  However, looking back is necessary. Huiqin followed Sumo, with a hint of worry in her eyes, looking at the idle salesperson inside the store.

  "Xia Xia, this is the chairman, come and take a look at yours." Entering the store, it's clear that the salesperson also knows Su Mo Ruo, and with a smile slowly collecting, looking at Hui Qin, smiling respectfully.

  "Director Li, you've arrived." Xiaoxia, a girl with an awkward smile, didn't know where to look with her eyes, because she always felt that the new chairman had too strong of an aura, making it hard for her to face him.

  "Yes, come and take a look, business in the mall has been very good lately..." Huaiqin said, hesitating to continue.

  "Yes." When Huiqin said this, Xiaxia's face also flashed a hint of embarrassment.

  "Can you tell me, why all the other shops are doing well, but yours has so few customers?" Su Mo Ruo was straightforward, although she had already decided to go back and discuss with Mu Xin Hua before making any arrangements for this girl. However, at least for now, Su Mo Ruo had the right to ask the reason.

  "Sorry, Chairman." The girl didn't explain much, her eyes were deep and mysterious, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking, but Su Mo could sense the melancholy aura emanating from her.

  "You are the shopping guide here, you must do your job well. The company is good to you, I hope you can remember that being silent in your own world or changing for others, there may not be anyone who feels sorry for you... because you don't even know your own goals and how to move forward with confidence... You are lost." Su Mo said coldly, then turned and left.

  Huiqin was taken aback by these words, but still subconsciously glanced at Xiaoxia, left a sentence "We'll go first" and quickly followed Suomoruo's footsteps.

  After listening to Su Mo Ruo's long speech, Xia Xia's eyes changed slightly. Looking at the back figure that was gradually moving away, the strong aura emanating from his body, and his thin lips, he thought of himself in the past.

  A sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth, yes, she was once so spirited and proud, but now she had become like this, even she herself didn't know what the reason was, or perhaps, subconsciously, she had been escaping that reason all along, the one that made her become like this, aimless and uncertain about her future.

  Then went to many places, the mall was well-stocked and the preparatory work was done very well, this aspect of the goods department is worthy of praise. After a stroll around, there were no problems found from the previous two days. One by one, people who came in and out of the mall shopping had big smiles on their faces, looking very satisfied with their purchases.

  "Chairman, the employees of each department in the mall are all waiting for you." Standing on the lowest floor of the mall, Huiqin glanced at the time on her wristwatch and reminded Suomoruo softly.

  It seemed like there was such an arrangement today, but I just nodded slightly and followed Huaiqin directly to the elevator and went straight to the conference room.

  Inside the conference room, all high-level managers in the mall were waiting. When they saw the door open, everyone's eyes fell on Sumo who walked in from outside. Youth was their first impression, but this time the success of the mall's event also made them unexpected. The gaze at her was filled with a hint of expectation, and some even had a bit of admiration.

  Seated in the main seat, the high-level executives below were all sitting upright and alert, with pairs of eyes fixed on Su Mo Ruo.

  "Bring what's been prepared for you." said Huiqin, breaking the silence.

  One by one, the mall executives breathed a sigh of relief. Some departments that needed to report data did not come up one by one to recite, but instead handed the documents directly to Sumojo's face, regardless of when she looked at them.

  Looking at the file in front of her, Su Mo nodded slightly and casually flipped through two pages before putting it aside. She turned to the merchandise department and said, "The inventory is quite sufficient, but I suppose you didn't expect the mall's business to be even better than previous years' sales during the holiday season? These goods are probably enough until after the New Year."

  As soon as the words were spoken, the merchandise manager's mouth twitched, his facial muscles tensed up, and his eyes flickered. He forced a smile and said, "This time was my oversight, there won't be a next time, Chairman."

  "Hmm, this time's mistake can be forgiven, and as you said, I don't want a next time." He nodded slightly, his voice neither high nor low, but just right to add pressure, and the air was filled with a unique aura of majesty that belonged only to Su Mo. Just one question had made all the subordinates below him look tense.

  Sumo also pointed out some problems with the mall, and emphasized that those who enter the company through connections but have no real talent or skills should get out early, otherwise it will be embarrassing when she personally gives the order.

  One by one, their faces became somewhat embarrassing, but the next words made a hint of joy flash in some people's eyes.

  "Of course, for companies with capable people or those you know who are capable, they can be recommended. As long as they pass the assessment, they can also be reused, even if they are not reused now, they can still be in the future."

  "Today's meeting ends here. After this, everyone should think carefully and if they really believe they can do a good job, then do it well. In the future, I hope to see diversification, innovation, and progress in our business operations and various activities, rather than just going through the motions. Those who are not willing to change, please leave the company as soon as possible, don't bother me with your presence." Her gaze was icy cold, scanning the entire room, she knew that these activities were what Muhuihua thought were fine, so it was still too early to judge people's abilities now, but in the next few months or even a year, those who were not qualified among them, she would unhesitatingly ask to leave the company.

  "Yes, Chairman, we will definitely do our best." In the conference room, everyone stood up, slightly bowing to Su Mo Ruo, their voices loud and clear, shaking the entire room.

  At noon, Su Mo stayed behind to have lunch with everyone. After all, today was the first time they met these people. Although he left a strict impression on them today, after all, people's hearts need to be won over by others, otherwise, they will also lose.

  At the dinner party, Su Mo's performance made Huiqin's eyes widen in surprise, and she couldn't help but wonder if she was a versatile woman. Although she had a calm and cold temperament, she rarely showed a gentle smile, spoke with a warm tone, and even took the initiative to raise her glass to adjust the atmosphere.

  A meal, also because of Su Mo Ruo's attitude, made many people relax a lot. Many people in their hearts even took Su Mo Ruo as their own goal to strive for. When leaving the hotel again to send Su Mo Ruo away, Hui Qin saw frenzy from their eyes.

  Is this really the charm of Su Mo's personality? Can a small meal like this actually make people lean towards her? The severe words in the conference room this morning have turned into a force, making these people believe that they can save a lot of trouble with her in future business dealings.

  She also knew what Su Mo Ruo meant. Not to mention the business world, even within the Mu Corporation, most people were related to these old men by blood or marriage. Mu Xin Hua had always been very lenient with them, fortunately, they had all maintained a proper attitude towards him over the years and never caused any disputes, so the company was calm and peaceful. But now it's different, the situation has changed, and if these people can't be controlled, they will have to be eliminated or put aside.

  After returning to the company, after handling a few more important documents, I asked Huichen if there were any other important things that needed to be handled. After Huichen replied that there weren't any, Sumo then got off work first and drove into the city.

  A white Ferrari specially prepared for her by Huiqin, actually she had some reservations about such a car, but Huiqin had already made preparations, so today she could only make do and drive into the city, heading towards her destination.

  The car had just stopped in front of the Starbucks coffee shop when the phone rang, "How come you're not here yet?" Min Jing's dissatisfied voice burst out. Upon hearing this, Su Mo Rou subconsciously held the phone a little further away, "I'm already here."

  "Oh, it's arrived, that thing, the package." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone. The sudden change in tone made Su Mo Ruo momentarily unable to react quickly while holding the phone.

  Entering the coffee shop, I was led by the waiter to the private room of Mochi Story. Inside, Min-jeong was sitting alone, looking a bit bored. I walked over and sat down on the other side, and after the door closed, I asked: "How long have you been here?"

  "How dare you, we clearly agreed on 2:30 this afternoon, look at what time it is now?" As she said that, she handed her wristwatch over to Su Mo Ruo, her eyes filled with resentment.

  "What time is it now?" She knew she was definitely late, but exactly how late she had no idea. After all, where did she have the time to look at the clock all day?

  Min Jing was extremely dissatisfied with Su Mo Ruo's response, her eyes seemed to be spitting fire as she glared at him fiercely, "Just how busy are you every day?"

  "You should have guessed." Sumo replied calmly, shrugging his shoulders.

  Looking at Su Mo's serious appearance, Min Jing closed her mouth and didn't speak. Yes, since she found out that Su Mo was the granddaughter of the chairman of the Mu Group and the future heir, even her cousin and Grandfather Mu were so concerned about her, how could she just sit there waiting for others to bring her the latest news? So, recently, what she's been most concerned about is probably Su Mo's affairs.

  Murong's family was abuzz with rumors about Li Qingrong, the chairman of the board, and even Murong's grandfather had defined Su Moruo as a heartless and ruthless woman. As she was good friends with Su Moruo, she couldn't believe such things. She had also watched the press conference held by the Mu family regarding Chairman Li's death and wanted to invite her out, but knowing she was busy, they only got the chance to meet today. However, about Su Moruo standing her up, it was just a casual joke to add some atmosphere.

  "Alright, say it, what do you want to do by asking me out?" She knew that Min Jing was always a girl with good manners and sincere towards others, so she agreed to meet Min Jing, precisely because of this reason.

  “…I just don't quite believe that you've actually become the chairman of the Mu Corporation now.” After all, Su Mo Ruo was still so young, and even if he were the talented cousin from the Mu Rong family, he was only a department head within the Mu Rong Group Company. To say that he truly controlled the power of the Mu Rong Group was still far, far off.

  "Now, don't you believe me?" He poured himself a cup of floral tea from the teapot in front of him and took a slight sip, his expression serene.

  For someone as calm and collected as Su Mo, Min Jing thought that if it were her, she would definitely not be able to do it, but Su Mo did it with ease. At such a young age, she already had an aura about her that made people involuntarily believe in her, and she had the pressure of being superior. This was truly the biggest difference between them.

  "Everyone's personality and the path they will take in life are different, don't think that just because I'm like this, you should be too." He looked up at Min Jing, seeming to see right through her heart, his tone carrying a hint of gentle guidance.

  Listening to this, Min Jing was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "I know... but I feel that your temperament has changed a lot recently."

  "Oh? What's changed?" She didn't seem to have noticed anything.

  "Don't you think you've become more talkative?" In the past, Su Mo Ruo was someone who spoke very little and concisely. She would use as few words as possible to convey her message, but now, although she still didn't speak much, she had improved, and her facial expressions would also change subtly at times.

  As for Min Jing's analysis, a hint of interest flashed in Su Mo Ruo's eyes, "I didn't notice that."

  "It's true, you wouldn't believe it." Having said that, Min Jing fell silent, emitting a hesitant aura from her body, slightly lowering her head, looking somewhat constrained.

  "Is there something that can't be said?" Looking at Min Jing's appearance, Su Mo Ruo knew that today was definitely not just a simple gathering.

  "What if... you said that if siblings fall in love with each other, would it... would it..." The rest of the words were left unsaid, as she didn't have the courage to say them out loud.

  Su Mo didn't say a word, but just stared straight at Min Jing with her eyes. Indeed, this girl was a bit abnormal today. However, judging from the tone and meaning of her words, she probably guessed something in her heart, but still encouraged herself to finish speaking with her eyes.

  Under Su Mo's gaze, Min Jing's heart was filled with a kind of strength, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up. "......You said it wouldn't... Heaven won't tolerate." The last few words were spoken cautiously, and his eyes watched Su Mo closely, not missing a single expression on her face.

  "Is justice not allowed?" Su Mo looked straight at Min Jing, as if wanting to see into the depths of her eyes, and when he said these four words, he enunciated each word clearly and heavily, as if savoring them.

  Although intimidated by Su Mo Ruo for a moment, Min Jing still clenched her fists tightly and looked straight into Su Mo Ruo's eyes with immense courage at this very moment.

  In Hong Kong, Sumo is the only one who can help her come up with a plan, and she naturally hopes that she can help her make a name for herself and calm her restless heart.

  "It depends on what's in this person's heart, after all." Her emotional world was very simple, and she didn't have much experience, so she just subconsciously said that one sentence, and then directly ran out of words.

  Her eyes blinked twice, and she realized that she had not misheard, just now Su Mo Ruo was indeed giving her advice, but this advice made her a bit confused.

  "Ask your own heart, ask others, my feeling is that you already have the answer in your heart, and asking others is just trying to get an answer that matches what's in your heart...". Her eyes gleamed with intensity as she watched Min Jing's expression change constantly, but she didn't say another word. As for what happened next, let Min Jing think about it herself. She had never heard her friends around her talk about emotions, and even more so, forbidden love. But if it was something she liked, no matter what, she would go after it, without worrying about status or identity.

  "......Alright, I understand." It wasn't until a long time had passed that Min Jing finally found her voice again. Subconsciously, she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip, but after drinking for half a day, she didn't see any tea entering her mouth. She lowered her eyes and suddenly felt embarrassed.

  "Alright, it's rare for us to meet today, let's not talk about that anymore, let's chat about something else." Min Jing returned to her usual personality, smiling at Su Mo Ruo, and immediately got up and sat down beside her, one hand stretching out to put around her shoulder. "Tell me, now that you're the chairman of the Mu Corporation, how does it feel... is it very satisfying?" As she spoke, her other hand was excitedly gesturing in front of Su Mo Ruo's face.

  ...no answer came, but instead a pair of eyes fell entirely on Min Jing's excited face.

  Feeling embarrassed by his gaze, she immediately pulled a long face and said, "Forget it, I know you must be very busy these days. Our family's broken company can make my parents so busy, let alone the international giant like Mu Corporation."

  "Uh-huh."

  As Su Mo returned to his taciturn phase, Min Jing didn't seem out of place and continued, "I might stay here until school starts too, would you help me cover for a bit?"

  Blinked, but didn't say a word, just stared at Min Jing.

  "Aw, come on, you know that if you can cover for me and tell them I'm waiting here for you to return together, my parents will definitely send someone to pick me up..."

  "Aren't you here for a blind date?" Suddenly remembered what Min Jing said with a bitter melon face expression when she came to Hong Kong before.

  "Hmm... yeah, it's a match, and it's right, but this matched person isn't the one my parents originally liked." Thinking of her brother-in-law and herself again, she scrunched up her face in distaste.

  "Good."

  "Can't you just add one more word?" Min Jing couldn't help but roll her eyes in annoyance.

  "It can." Sumo continued to answer.

  "It's boring." She cut in with a wave of her hand, but Min Jing's expression relaxed a lot. Today, she asked Su Mo to come out just to unwind and let go of some of the gloominess in her heart. Today's goal was also achieved.

  After chatting for a while, they had dinner together around 6:30. After Su Mo drove Min Jing back, he headed to Mary's Hospital.

  And tomorrow, she believes, someone will come looking for her.
