Su Yu lowered his head slightly, pressing his face close against Qin Shiya’s.
“Which places did Bai Mo touch when he came over?”
Su Yu’s breath brushed against Qin Shiya’s face, causing her mind to instantly go blank.
“The… the sofa.”
…Qin Shiya dragged her suitcase and walked out of the residential complex with Su Yu.
“You’re really annoying. Is your possessiveness that strong?”
Qin Shiya gave Su Yu a resentful look.
In truth, Bai Mo’s image was becoming increasingly blurred in her heart, while Su Yu’s was becoming clearer.
Su Yu didn’t respond.
In his heart, Qin Shiya was merely a plaything, a means to get back at Bai Mo.
Compared to Bai Mo, who used his money to annex his own assets, Su Yu felt that Qin Shiya’s act of giving Bai Mo money was even more egregious.
Seeing that Su Yu was ignoring her, Qin Shiya curled her lips unhappily.
“What a scumbag, forgetting everything the moment he puts his pants back on.”
Qin Shiya muttered under her breath.
While Su Yu and Qin Shiya were busy having fun, Bai Mo had already used the money Qin Shiya gave him to register a company.
The company’s name was Daydreaming Network Co., Ltd.
Bai Mo didn’t choose this name randomly; he used it to mock Su Yu.
Did he think he could defeat him by threatening Qin Shiya to leave him or by driving a wedge between him and Lin Wanqing?
Stop daydreaming!
Bai Mo looked at the space in front of him, which was less than thirty square meters, and nodded with satisfaction.
It was normal to be frugal in the early stages of a startup.
Besides, he still had to rent equipment and pay salaries, which would be significant expenses.
While Bai Mo was busy running errands, his heart suddenly twinged with pain.
He felt as if he were about to lose something important.
However, there were too many things to do in the early stages of his startup, so Bai Mo didn’t have time to dwell on it.
Although he wanted to independently research and develop the chip to surprise Lin Wanqing, he prepared to seek investment to sustain the company’s growth.
He would use this company as a starting point to overthrow the Su Corporation.
Just as Bai Mo was envisioning the future, a man brushed past him, and then his wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Bai Mo, his fantasies interrupted, was somewhat displeased.
He turned around and saw that the person grabbing his wrist was a white-haired middle-aged man.
“What are you doing?”
Bai Mo spoke up in dissatisfaction.
He tried to pull his hand back, but the man held on tightly.
Feeling the pain in his wrist, Bai Mo grew angry.
“What exactly do you want?!”
Bai Mo shook off the middle-aged man’s hand and immediately ran away.
He was afraid the man was a scammer.
Before, Bai Mo wouldn’t have cared—after all, he didn’t have a cent to his name and his life was worthless, so he could have just waited him out.
But not now.
Now, he was a man with a million yuan.
He had to stay away from these scammers; otherwise, his million might disappear one day.
Seeing Bai Mo run off, the middle-aged man stared blankly at his back.
“So similar… He looks so much like him. Xiao Mo, is it really you?”
Bai Ruohong murmured, then hurriedly took out his phone and dialed a number.
“Xiao Lian, I think I’ve found our son.”
The woman on the other end was stunned for a moment, then spoke with a touch of helplessness.
“It’s been so many years, and you’ve said that countless times.”
Wang Lian didn’t know how many times she had heard those words.
After repeated hopes and repeated disappointments, Wang Lian had become somewhat numb.
“This time it’s for real. He looks exactly like Xiao Mo did when he was little, and I can feel that he’s my son.”
However, Bai Ruohong’s attitude was unusually firm, which caused the woman on the other end of the line to fall into deep thought.
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
Bai Ruohong replied without the slightest hesitation.
“Alright, wait for me. I’m flying to Magic City right now.”
Having long since departed, Bai Mo had no idea that his life was about to undergo a major upheaval.
He walked up to the entrance of a company and went inside.
“Hello sir, who are you looking for?”
The receptionist asked politely.
Hearing this, Bai Mo took out a business card he had prepared earlier and handed it over.
“I have a big deal I’d like to collaborate on with your boss.”
The receptionist took the card and frowned slightly in confusion after seeing the company name.
Daydreaming Network Co., Ltd.?
Why haven’t I heard of it?
“Hello, do you have an appointment?”
Although the receptionist hadn’t heard of it, he still asked Bai Mo politely.
Bai Mo’s expression stiffened upon hearing this.
“I came in quite a hurry and don’t have an appointment.”
Hearing that Bai Mo didn’t have an appointment, the receptionist shook his head.
“I’m sorry, but you can’t enter without an appointment. However, I can check for you.”
Seeing that he couldn’t just slip in, Bai Mo could only nod.
After all, trying to see the boss of a large company like this was easier said than done, let alone for someone from a newly registered company like his.
The receptionist made a call on the landline.
Bai Mo had already given up hope, but then he suddenly saw the receptionist respectfully gesture toward him after finishing the call.
“Our boss is waiting for you in the office on the eighth floor. You can take the second elevator over there directly to the eighth floor.”
Bai Mo was overjoyed, thinking to himself, “Could it be that my luck is finally turning around?”
Whether it was because of Su Yu or something else, Bai Mo felt that nothing had gone right for him lately; he couldn’t seem to do anything properly.
Although the outcomes were ultimately good, he always encountered small difficulties along the way.
Just like a moment ago—if he hadn’t run fast, he would surely have been scammed by that old geezer.
Fortunately, things were going well with seeking investment this time.
He hoped no more accidents would occur.
And so, with a mix of nervousness and excitement, Bai Mo stepped into the elevator heading straight for the eighth floor…
