Chapter 553: Noticed Something Amiss
There was indeed a problem. It was no wonder that Xue Ni had been willing to kidnap and threaten her just so she could be together with Shi Mo.
Shi Mo saw that Fang Mo’er was deep in thought and his expression softened. He asked her, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Shi Mo had always treated Xue Ni as his sister, even though Fang Mo’er did not know how deep their relationship was.
However, it seemed to be mainly due to the fact that Xue Ni had saved his life and not much more than that.
Fang Mo’er quickly thought about whether she should tell Shi Mo about how Xue Ni had kidnapped her, or think of another way to solve it herself.
She did not want to create a misunderstanding between her and Shi Mo because of Xue Ni. She did not want to create a scene like in novels where the misunderstandings were torturous.

The most important thing was to solve the problem. As a fanatical reader who had read countless similar novels, Fang Mo’er began to think about what she should do.
“How do you plan to help her?” Fang Mo’er tentatively asked Shi Mo.
Shi Mo turned on the computer in front of him and opened a document. He gestured for Fang Mo’er to look at it.
He said, “The company we’re working with also had a problem. The situation is very serious now, so I’ve decided to give her a sum of money first. Then, I’ll send two professionals over to help her design a specific solution.”
“The mistake that Xue Ni made is too big this time. It’s a little tricky to solve, but it’s not impossible. I might have to make a trip to Country Y soon to keep an eye on this matter personally, so I won’t have much time to accompany you in the future.”
Fang Mo’er gaze followed Shi Mo’s hand and looked at the document. It was a report on the problem that Xue Ni’s company had encountered.
Due to Xue Ni’s failure to make a detailed risk assessment during the investment project, the sales of the products were slow. Coupled with the change in the finance department, the accounts had not been handed over clearly, resulting in a serious shortage of liquidity. The company was now in a precarious situation.
Secretly, Fang Mo’er gloated. What was this called? This was bad karma.
However, in order to maintain her image, Fang Mo’er still put on a surprised expression and said in disbelief, “Xue Ni is a strong woman who has been working alone overseas for so many years. How could something like this happen to the company so suddenly? This doesn’t seem like a mistake that she would make.”
Shi Mo shook his head. He was also a little confused. “Indeed, everything was normal before the accident. However, after she invested in a project, the company started to fall apart for no reason.”
Something seemed to be coming out of Fang Mo’er’s mind. She tried hard to recall what Xue Ni had done in the past.
Bai Rong was an actress that she had supported because she knew that Fang Mo’er and Bai Rong were not on good terms.
In fact, Fang Mo’er was the one that Bai Rong hated the most.
One blamed her for her relationship with Mu Chen, while the other hated her relationship with Shi Mo.Hence, the two of them had joined forces.
Later on, something had happened to Bai Rong, and a connection to Xue Ni had also been revealed.
Xue Ni had not wanted her relationship with Bai Rong to affect Shi Mo’s trust in her, so she had gotten Bai Rong banned.
Who was Xue Ni? She had relied on herself to make a name for herself in Country Y, and she was still the eldest daughter of the Xue family.
Even if she was not favored, with the backing of the Xue family, no matter which circles she was in, they would still have to give her some face.
Since Xue Ni had personally said that she wanted to ban Bai Rong, then Bai Rong’s company would definitely not dare to go against her.
This was because sheltering an artist who was full of negative news and was not that popular was not a huge loss to the company.
On the contrary, they could still sell Xue Ni a favor.
The main crack in the relationship between Mu Chen and Bai Rong was that Bai Rong had destroyed Mu Chen’s child and had even humiliated him greatly.
Logically speaking, it would be impossible for Mu Chen and Bai Rong to get back together. However, the two of them seemed to be working together now.
Fang Mo’er knew Mu Chen and Bai Rong’s personalities very well. She had read the entire book and the two of them as the main characters had been thoroughly written by the author.
If it was not for some special reason, they would never have worked together again.
In that case, Xue Ni might be the special reason.
In order to confirm whether what she had said was correct, Fang Mo’er needed to ask a secret question about the business.
She adjusted her expression and asked Shi Mo, “Miss Xue is investing in the Mu family’s business, right?”
He had not expected Fang Mo’er to be so smart that she could guess it in an instant.
Although investments were usually not an absolute secret, Fang Mo’er was usually immersed in the entertainment industry and Shi Mo had never seen her care much about business matters.
Shi Mo nodded his head and praised her, “My wife is very smart. Mu Chen earned a lot of money from playing the stock market and managed his own company well. He also received the Mu family’s attention. The Mu family thought that he had room to grow, so they gave him a lot of power. Aren’t you curious as to why you haven’t heard from Mu Ye recently?”
