Chapter 1 Jin Baiyan is Missing
Three a.m., Camphor Garden Villa in Kun City.
A loud “bang” shattered the silence of the night, followed by a distorted roar.
“Jin Baiyan, get your ass out here!”
The roar was mixed with the sound of things crashing from downstairs.
Jin Mo, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened.
He “zoomed” up from the bed, his slightly long hair instantly falling down, and blinked his hazy eyes.
“Chairman, Jin is not here. He went to Mountain City on a business trip!” said Jin Ze, the head butler.
Jin Mo frowned, reached out and rubbed his aching head, brushed the hair off his face, lifted the quilt, put on his slippers, and quickly walked out of the room.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Chairman Jin Huaiyang, who rushed up from downstairs, grabbed him by the collar.
“Tell me, did you bewitch Baiyan into transferring all his shares to you and appointing you as the new General Manager?”
Jin Huaiyang’s face was flushed red, staring at Jin Mo like a wolf, looking frantic, completely losing his well-dressed demeanor.
Jin Mo had just woken up, his head was still dizzy, and he didn’t know what Jin Huaiyang was talking about.
“Uncle, what are you talking about? What shares? What General Manager?” Jin Mo felt uncomfortable being strangled, pulled away Jin Huaiyang’s hand, and asked in shock.
“You brat, don’t think I don’t know?”
Jin Huaiyang wanted to pounce again, but Jin Mo dodged him.
“It must be you who bewitched Baiyan, otherwise, how could he do such an outrageous thing?”
Jin Huaiyang’s chest hurt from anger. He covered his chest with one hand and pointed at Jin Mo with the other.
“Back then, when I adopted you, the master told me that you could either benefit or harm Baiyan, it’s fifty-fifty. Over the years, I’ve been guarding against it, but I didn’t expect to fall into your trap! You…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was out of breath.
“Chairman, calm down, don’t get angry!” Head Butler Jin supported Jin Huaiyang, who was slumping to the ground, “Why don’t you call and ask Baiyan?”
“Called, no connection!” Jin Huaiyang gasped for breath, his hand trembling as he pointed at Jin Mo, “Tell me, did you do something to Baiyan?”
After listening for a while, Jin Mo finally understood a little, and suddenly rushed to Jin Huaiyang’s side, his face very pale.
“Uncle, did you just say that brother transferred all his shares to me?”
“Humph, to transfer shares, you have to sign too. You look like you don’t know anything, who are you pretending for?” Jin Huaiyang’s face was pale, and he was panting with anger.
Jin Mo ignored Jin Huaiyang’s sarcasm and continued to ask, “How much did brother transfer to me?”
Hearing this, Jin Huaiyang became even more angry, and the irritability in his tone increased sharply.
“60%, 60%, he transferred all the shares in his hands to you! Not a single share left! Oh, I can hardly breathe!”
Head Butler quickly reached out to rub Jin Huaiyang’s chest, “Chairman, don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious! Things haven’t been clarified yet! Don’t be anxious!”
Jin Huaiyang pushed away the head butler’s hand, “Did you father and son collude?”
“No, no? Chairman, how could you think like this?” The head butler shook his head repeatedly in fright.
Jin Mo was dumbfounded after hearing Jin Huaiyang’s words.
His brother transferred all the shares in his hands to him!
Why?
When was it transferred, and why didn’t he know?
“Uncle, what else did you say about the General Manager just now? What’s going on?” Jin Mo’s face was pale, his hands trembling, and he tightly grabbed Jin Huaiyang’s arm.
“Just past midnight, the General Manager’s office issued an announcement, appointing you as the new General Manager, how could you not know? I bet you’re overjoyed in your heart!”
Jin Huaiyang looked at Jin Mo coldly, speaking through gritted teeth, his originally refined face looking somewhat hideous.
“Baiyan was five years old when he took you out of the orphanage, treating you with all his heart for twenty years, is this how you repay him? Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?”
Jin Mo couldn’t hear what Jin Huaiyang was saying anymore, his mind filled with the thought that “something happened to brother!”
“Brother!” he shouted, rushing towards the bedroom.
He almost rolled and crawled to the bedside table, picked up his phone, unlocked the screen with trembling hands, found the phone number marked “Brother”, and dialed it.
“Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable!”
A mechanical voice sounded from the phone!
Jin Mo didn’t give up and dialed again!
It was still the mechanical voice replying!
“Stop pretending! I’ve already called dozens of times, I can’t get through at all!”
Jin Huaiyang walked in, staring at Jin Mo with his eyes, wishing he could pounce on him and fight him.
“Something happened to brother!” Jin Mo’s body went limp, and he slumped on the ground, muttering incessantly.
“What did you do to Baiyan?” Jin Huaiyang’s eyes were full of tears, and his tone suddenly changed from anger to pleading, “I only have this one son, can you have some compassion and return him to me!”
Jin Mo buried his head in his arms, trying hard to calm himself down.
The events of the past month flashed through his mind.
More than a month ago, he came home from school and saw Jin Baiyan sitting on the sofa, his face pale and his hands constantly rubbing his head.
The two of them had been having a falling out for the past three years, but when he saw that Jin Baiyan was uncomfortable, he panicked.
“Brother, what’s wrong?” He rushed over, leaned in front of Jin Baiyan, his face tense.
Jin Baiyan stared at him fixedly, his eyes seemingly filled with thousands of words.
“Little Mo, I’m tired. Can you come to the company and help me?” Jin Baiyan asked cautiously after a long while.
Jin Mo’s heart ached.
Clearly, he was just an adopted son, and still an adopted son under the name of Head Butler Jin, yet he made the real young master speak to him so cautiously. He was truly ungrateful.
“Brother, I want to help you, but… doesn’t Uncle Jin not want me to enter the company?”
“It’s okay, I have the final say in the company now!” Jin Baiyan smiled and looked at Jin Mo, “Just tell me, do you want to help your brother!”
Jin Mo’s eyes swept over Jin Baiyan’s pale face, and his heart ached in bursts. He nodded vigorously.
“Yes!”
“Okay, come to the company with me tomorrow! I’ll give you a month to familiarize yourself with the company’s processes! After a month, I want you to be able to get started!”
Jin Mo was dumbfounded, “So urgent?”
“Yes, brother is really too tired!”
In the following month, Jin Mo didn’t rest for a single day, going to work at eight in the morning and getting off work at eleven at night. Jin Baiyan was almost harsh on him.
Jin Mo didn’t understand why Jin Baiyan was so anxious before, but now that he thought about it, Jin Baiyan must have done it on purpose.
As for the Share Transfer Contract, he also understood.
During that time, Jin Baiyan asked him to sign a lot of documents.
Saying that he had read the documents and there were no problems.
He asked him to sign in order to first let the people in the company familiarize themselves with his signature.
Come to think of it, the Share Transfer Contract must have been mixed in with these documents, and he signed it inexplicably!
Thinking of this, Jin Mo suddenly raised his head.
“Uncle Jin, has my brother had a physical examination recently?”
Jin Huaiyang was still staring at Jin Mo hatefully, and was confused by his sudden words!
“What?”
“I’m asking, has my brother had a physical examination recently? Is he sick? This past month, I’ve seen him with a pale face and covered in sweat from time to time, so I want to ask, is my brother sick?”
Jin Mo’s tone trembled, and his face was devoid of blood under the dim light.
“You bastard, you’re actually cursing your brother to be sick!”
Realizing what he meant, Jin Huaiyang pointed at Jin Mo and scolded him angrily.
