CHAPTER 523: CHAPTER 523: WE HOPE YOU CAN ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF HER

"Oh?" Mo Xingyuan’s hand paused slightly while fiddling with the teacup, raising an eyebrow in disbelief as he looked at Mayor Shen, "Uncle Shen, are you the one who declined my offer of two hundred million? In your eyes, does this huge amount of money not count as money?"

"That’s not what I mean." Mayor Shen furrowed his brows, thought for a moment and then seriously looked at Mo Xingyuan, "All along, you have misunderstood us. Whether it’s fifty million or two hundred million, the reason my Shen Family refused it is not because it’s too little, but because my Shen Family never intended to take the money.

When I mentioned five hundred million initially, it was merely to test President Mo’s sincerity, not truly asking you to pay that money. Even if you did provide five hundred million, I definitely wouldn’t have taken it."

"Is that so?" Mo Xingyuan couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.

He gently brought the teacup to his lips and took a sip.

"I came to the Mo Family specifically today to explain this matter. Over the years, the Mo Family has supported my Shen Family a lot. Even though my daughter Zhuyue has been harmed by someone from President Mo’s side and is now hospitalized, considering how President Mo has taken care of Zhuyue in the past, we should not resent President Mo and give him troubles over minor matters, despite feeling pained for our child.

President Mo has visited my Shen Family twice, and there is no reason for my Shen Family to make President Mo come asking three times. I’m here personally today to make it clear to President Mo: don’t worry about the five hundred million anymore. My Shen Family will not take a single cent.

Although Mu Zhenzhen indeed harmed Zhuyue, she is after all President Mo’s girlfriend. Given that President Mo has willingly faced losing face to come to my Shen Family twice to plead for her rescue, how could we refuse to save her?

I also have a daughter, and seeing a young girl enter prison can inevitably affect her entire life. So, I will try my best to cooperate with President Mo to get Mu Zhenzhen out of prison early."

Mayor Shen looked at Mo Xingyuan sincerely, as if every word came from deep within the heart.

Mo Xingyuan almost believed him.

His hand tightened around the teacup slightly and he looked at Mayor Shen, "Uncle Shen means, you don’t want me, Mo Xingyuan, to spend a single penny, and are willing to help me save someone willingly?"

"Xingyuan, with the relationship between you and my Shen Family, you should understand what my Shen Family means. My Shen Family, how could we covet your money."

"Haha." Mo Xingyuan instantly scoffed, "Uncle Shen, doing this now, aren’t you worried that it might aggrieve your own daughter?"

"Zhuyue has been kind-hearted since she was little; even if she knows that Mu Zhenzhen has harmed her, since Mu Zhenzhen is your person, she will definitely not hold grudges."

Mayor Shen’s words made the smile on Mo Xingyuan’s face stiffen slightly.

If Zhuyue were truly awake, perhaps, she would indeed forgive Zhenzhen for his sake.

Because from the beginning to the end, the ones unforgiving towards the Mu Family were the senior members of the Shen Family.

As for Zhuyue...

Seeing that Mo Xingyuan was moved, Mayor Shen pressed further, "Xingyuan, my Shen Family only has one daughter, Zhuyue. We truly don’t scheme for anything more but hope she can live well. Everything we’ve done in our lives has been for her to have a good life.

If possible, after rescuing Mu Zhenzhen, we hope Miss Mu and our Zhuyue can reconcile and I also hope that you can continue to take good care of Zhuyue. My Shen Family has no real support in Rong City; Zhuyue’s accomplishments today are all thanks to your protection. We hope that you can continue to look out for her."
