"Don't tell me about righteousness or fairness. In this industry, all I know is, the winner takes all!"
"Tangning, if you have a move to make, then throw it at me."
After she was done talking, Feng Jing hung up the phone.
Just behind Tangning, Mo Ting had heard her conversation with Feng Jing. As he carried one of the kids in his arms, his expression remained calm, "Did someone try to threaten you again? Why do you keep getting threatened?"
"I can't help it. Whenever I'm persistent about something, I always end up offending someone. Is President Mo tired of protecting me?" Tangning turned around and smiled.
Mo Ting shook his head as he placed their son on the floor and pulled Tangning into his embrace, "No, you don't know how special you are to me."
There weren't many people in this world that were brave enough to go against convention. But, Tangning was definitely someone that was up for the challenge and didn't easily admit defeat.
"No matter what, I'll first meet with Hong Jie."
"Always bring your bodyguards with you and take note of your safety," this was Mo Ting's most basic request for Tangning.
Tangning nodded her head and wrapped her arms tightly around him. Probably because so much had happened lately, Tangning only felt safe and at ease when she was in Mo Ting's arms.
"That's enough, Zichen is still outside, let me bring him in." After speaking, Mo Ting turned around to open the door. But, the little rascal, Tang Zichen, ended up crawling in from the living room on his own and stared cheekily at his father with his big round eyes.
He wasn't like Mo Zixi, he didn't ask to be carried as soon as he saw Mo Ting come home. In fact, it wasn't something that he cared for; he was just like a little adult.
"When this rascal grows up, he's going to be trouble!" Tangning couldn't help but laugh.
"Hmmph," Mo Ting humphed, "Developing an early understanding means he'll learn quickly."
"But he's still so young..."
"He's Mo Ting and Tangning's son."
The little rascal didn't understand what his parents were saying yet as he wiggled his butt and shuffled towards his bed. Of course, he couldn't climb up on his own. So, in the end, Mo Ting sweeped him up and placed him on top of the bed.
Mo Zichen sat on the bed and stared straight at his father. After staring at each other for a while, he turned and picked up a toy next to him and completely ignored Mo Ting; he could happily play on his own.
Tangning was surprised by the way the father and son interacted.
For some reason, Mo Zichen's actions were nothing like a one to two-year-old child.
"This kid is so smart. I wonder who he inherited it from."
"Of course he got it from you," Mo Ting said as he patted Tangning on the head.
"You sure know how to make me happy."
Mo Ting smiled. After coaxing the kids to sleep, he returned to the bedroom. No matter how much conflict there was in the outside world, he was always Tangning's warmth and happiness.
...
Meanwhile, Lin Qian was about to start on her new project. But, before that was to happen, Mother Li had been hounding her for a while about making things official with Li Jin. She wanted her to be Li Jin's rightful wife.
"Qian Qian, I don't mean to offend you, but I would like to ask if you have any other family members at home? Why were you adopted by the Quan Family?"
After hearing Mother Li's questions, Lin Qian felt a little uncomfortable. But, she understood that she shouldn't hide anything from the Li Family since she was living in their home and they treated her so well.
"If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to..."
