Chapter 127 - 127 Re-Election of an Heir
127 Re-Election of an Heir
“Mo Ting doesn’t even have a decent woman by his side, let alone getting married. Everyone knew that although the ceremony was supposed to celebrate his inauguration, it was actually Elder Mo’s way of choosing a wife for him! All the rich ladies of City A’s wealthy families were here! Which head of the Mo family was like him, taking over the family before marriage? Why is he a special case?”
An old Chinese man said, “My family has been working with the Mo family since my grandfather’s time. At that time, EL Corporation didn’t exist. I did hear from my grandfather that the Mo family has a rule that requires the heir to get married before taking over the family. The older generation felt that as the head of the family, he had to first get married before he could start his career. He had to manage the small family well before he could take charge of the family. This is also a test for the patriarch.”
The old Chinese man was very old and seemed to have a lot of prestige among the crowd. As soon as they heard his words, the direction of the wind in the venue changed.
“If that’s the case, then Mo Ting doesn’t have the right to be the head of the Mo family.”
“Where’s Elder Mo? Ask him to come out and uphold justice. Otherwise, if word gets out, it’ll look like we old guys are bullying a child.”
“Mo Ting isn’t the only one in the Mo family. Doesn’t his third uncle already have a family?”
“That’s right, the Mo family is full of talents, anyone can be the head of the family, I think Mo Yi can be the head too, I vote for him.”
“I also agree.”
“I’m voting for him too.”
…
Nearly half of the guests below the stage raised their hands to express their opinions, while the remaining half remained silent with complicated expressions.
At this moment, Mo Yi was pushed onto the stage by his assistant. He waved his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet, “Everyone, I know you’re very concerned about the Mo family. I’d like to thank everyone first. About my nephew taking over EL, even if he hasn’t started a family yet, my father is already trying to find one for him. Regardless of whether it was sooner or later, the final result would not change. The family rules had been in place for a hundred years. Ah Ting grew up abroad and received a Western education. He’s different from us old fogeys. If you don’t follow the rules, then so be it! Everyone, let’s not get tangled up in this matter. It’s a bit difficult for a junior like him.”
Mo Yi’s words were said with skill. Although it seemed like he was speaking up for Mo Ting and telling everyone not to make things difficult for him, he was actually trying to trap them. Not only did they make Mo Ting look like someone who did not follow the family rules, they even placed him on the opposite side of everyone. Even his own father was slandered. In the end, he simply wanted to say that Mo Ting had no right to take over EL Corporation.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the guests in the audience became even more noisy. Just now, someone had just initiated a vote, but now someone was going to restart the board meeting of El and re-select the heir. This affected many people’s interests, and the guests who had been silent just now began to stand up and oppose. The entire hall was in chaos.
“Hehehe.”
Mo Ting, who had been silently watching the crowd’s performance, suddenly let out a gentle laugh. His voice was not loud, but it was enough to penetrate through the crowd. Everyone fell silent as they looked at Mo Ting.
Mo Ting stood quietly on the stage with one hand in his pocket. His expression was casual and he looked like he did not care, but his entire body exuded the pressure of a superior, “Continue, why aren’t you fighting anymore?”
His cold words made the audience so quiet that even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard.
Fu Wen gritted his teeth and looked at the people who were the fiercest. These bastards wanted to use the inauguration ceremony to prevent President Mo from inheriting the Mo family. They must have had enough of living! They did not know President Mo’s temper. If they did not handle this well, they might end up being fed to the sharks tonight!
After that, Fu Wen heard President Mo’s cold tone change as he slowly said, “Did you guys hear that I’m single?”
After hearing Mo Ting’s words, the venue fell silent for a long time. Did you not just say that you wanted to re-elect a successor? Why did they suddenly return to the question of whether Mo Ting was single? Everyone was at a loss after hearing his words.
Fu Wen turned his face to the side. He could not stand President Mo’s gloating.
At this time, the middle-aged man stood up again and said, “President Mo, we don’t care if you’re single or not. As long as you’re not married, you can’t take over EL group!”
Many nodded in agreement, and Mo Yi’s eyes flashed with pride.
Mo Ting was silent for a moment before he suddenly looked at Mo Yi with a smile that did not look like a smile, “Third uncle, what do you think of this?”
Mo Yi immediately put on the face of a loving elder, “Of course I’m on your side.”
Look, how heartwarming and touching those words were!
Fu Wen kept rolling his eyes in his heart and thought, ‘You can really act! Aren’t you the one who found these troublemakers? If it wasn’t for that, I would have pulled my head off and let you use it as a wheelchair! He was acting one way in front of others and another behind their backs!’
