Chapter 55: He Doesn’t Need to Look Up to Anyone Anymore

Even though Xie Bingyan’s condition might not be severe, with her fever not subsiding, they hoped Xu Mo would come to visit. After all, she was his biological mother and father.

Despite the strained relationship within the family, outsiders couldn’t compare. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water!

Xu Wanting and Xu Xuehui also hoped to take this opportunity to have a good chat with Xu Mo. It had been a long time since they had a normal conversation with him. Every time they saw Xu Mo, he always wore a disgusted expression on his face.

Xu Xuehui and Xu Wanting acknowledged their past mistakes and admitted they were wrong. They swore that they would never behave like that again and only hoped that Xu Mo would come back home.

Xu Wanting grabbed a sunshade and prepared to leave.

“Where are you going, Wanting?” Xu Shuying suddenly asked.

“I’m going to find Xu Mo. Mom is in the ICU, and I hope he can come to visit her. After all, we are family,” Xu Wanting said softly.

Xu Shuying hesitated for a moment before saying, “Let me go with you! I know where he is!”

“Okay!”

In truth, Xu Shuying was hesitant to see Xu Mo now. In their previous encounters, Xu Mo completely ignored her, behaving as if he didn’t know her at all, leaving Xu Shuying feeling lost.

She had already read through some of their chat history from a few years ago, where she found dozens of unanswered messages. Most of them were trivial matters or things that would make him happy.

He used to have so much to say to her, so many things to share, but now he pretended not to know her.

It seemed that Xu Mo had already understood everything.

“Do you think Xu Mo knows about our chat group?” As they left the hospital, Xu Shuying suddenly asked.

The matter regarding their sister chat group was a sore spot for them. Most of the messages there were actually mocking Xu Mo, and Xu Shuying, much like Xu Manni, had contributed a lot.

“Xu Mo knows,” Xu Wanting nodded.

Xu Shuying’s expression changed, and her breathing became rapid.

Looking at her, Xu Wanting continued, “He’s well aware that you and others don’t like him, exclude him from our family, and sometimes even bully him. He must have endured it for many years, until he came of age and got his ID. When he left home, it was almost a decision made without hesitation.”

“I thought he was just fooling around,” Xu Shuying said, her voice filled with difficulty.

Xu Wanting didn’t bother to say anything more. “Where is he now? Take me there!”

“He rented an office near the hospital, in the Mingding Building,” Xu Shuying replied.

“The Mingding Building?” Xu Wanting was momentarily stunned but quickly followed her to a tall building nearby.

The building was tall, with about thirty to forty floors, and it was a luxurious structure near the Fu Yi Hospital.

Most of the building housed various offices.

However, as Xu Wanting looked up at the building, her eyes turned red.

The building was similar to the Tianhao Building where her company was located, not only in its design, height, and signage but also in its decoration style. In fact, both buildings were constructed using the same blueprint.

“What floor is he on?” Xu Wanting sniffled, her eyes reddened.

“He’s on the twenty-third floor. He rented an entire floor for his office. I heard their company has expanded to one hundred and twenty employees!” Xu Shuying said.

“The twenty-third floor…” Xu Wanting felt tears welling up. It was almost the same floor as her own office.

That one time Xu Mo had visited her office, he had looked as intrigued as if he were Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden.

He had once fervently promised that he would also work in a place like that in the future, hoping to become as excellent as those office workers. He had looked at everything with anticipation, longing to be a part of it.

However, he had only been there once, and he never had the chance to return.

Now, he had rented a floor for himself with his own strength, and no one could evict him anymore.

He had achieved his dream.

But why did Xu Wanting only feel sadness and regret? It was as if a large piece of her heart had suddenly disappeared, leaving her feeling heavy-hearted. Tears welled up in her eyes.

“Sister?” Xu Shuying noticed her unusual demeanor and called out hurriedly.

Xu Wanting quickly wiped her eyes. “I should have him go to the Tianhao Building to see. He used to want to work there, but now, he doesn’t need to. He has his own place now! He doesn’t need to look up to anyone anymore!”

Xu Shuying’s expression faltered.

“Let’s go! Let’s find him!” Xu Wanting sniffled and continued, “As long as he’s willing to come to the hospital to see Mom, it’ll be fine!”

Xu Shuying didn’t know how to comfort her, so she just nodded and followed her towards the Mingding Building.

Xu Mo should be up there.

Recently, apart from relocating bicycles, he had been training new employees up there, explaining the company’s future plans.

Little Monster Bike has been developing rapidly, with already three to four hundred thousand bicycles deployed, and still expanding every day.

According to Jiang Wanting and Auntie Song, their Company has expanded to surrounding cities.

These days, Xu Shuying had specifically looked into the concept of “Internet Sharing Economy”. Many entrepreneurs praised this concept, seeing it as an emerging economic trend, a new opportunity.

She still remembered the day when Xu Mo attended the banquet, confidently discussing with some people.

And speaking, introducing the future plans for the Internet sharing economy.

Even in front of many business tycoons, he still maintained a calm and composed demeanor, leisurely articulating his concepts.

Shared bicycles are not the only thing; in the future, there will be more in the sharing economy—shared books, shared electric bicycles, shared cars, shared power banks, and so on.

Nowadays, these concepts have been brought up for discussion by many.

They want to see if these concepts can succeed?

From this perspective, if someone were to implement these concepts, Xu Mo’s foresight is simply terrifyingly accurate, definitely not something an ordinary person can compare to.

Such a person, Xu Shuying couldn’t evaluate for a moment.

The company is on the twenty-third floor. The two of them took the elevator and quickly arrived.

There hung a huge plaque, yellow background, black font, quite eye-catching, with the words “Little Monster” written in a lively manner.

There was already a receptionist on duty at the front desk, and many employees were working inside, orderly and methodically. It was evident that Xu Mo had done an excellent job in this aspect of planning.

Even high-level executives like Xu Wanting, who manages a multi-billion-dollar cosmetics company, couldn’t find fault. It’s hard to imagine Xu Mo achieving this level of success in just a few months.

“May I ask whom you are looking for?” the receptionist asked as they entered.

“We’re looking for Xu Mo. Where is he?” Xu Wanting inquired.

The receptionist looked at the two elegantly dressed, noble-looking women with slight surprise. “Could you please leave your names and identities for a visit? I’ll inform Mr. Xu,” she said.

Xu Wanting and Xu Shuying nodded, leaving their information behind.

“What does Madam Xu want to discuss with Mr. Xu?” the receptionist inquired.

“We are his sisters and just want to see him,” Xu Wanting replied.

“Mr. Xu’s sisters?” The receptionist looked surprised as she scrutinized them.

“This is my business card,” Xu Wanting said, handing over a card, fearing that she would refuse to let them see Xu Mo.

The receptionist took the card and glanced at it, then suddenly looked astonished. “You… you’re…” She seemed unable to believe that Xu Wanting and Xu Shuying were Xu Mo’s sisters, wearing a look of utter amazement.

However, she muttered to herself, “Mr. Xu still has sisters? Wasn’t he supposed to be an orphan?”

These words made Xu Wanting and Xu Shuying feel uncomfortable.

“You two wait here! I’ll go inform Mr. Xu right away. He’s in a meeting inside!” the receptionist hurriedly said.

“Okay.”

The receptionist probably didn’t know whether their identity was genuine or not, and she quickly left.

Xu Wanting turned to Xu Shuying and said, “Let’s go with her. Xu Mo… might not want to see us.”

Hearing this, Xu Shuying nodded and followed the receptionist.

Inside the company’s office, many people were busy working. The receptionist quickly approached an office marked as the general manager’s office and knocked before entering.

Xu Wanting and Xu Shuying hurried over as well.

“Not seeing anyone. Tell them to scram!” Xu Mo’s voice immediately came from inside as soon as they reached the door, sounding icy.

“Xu Mo!” Xu Wanting pushed the door open in haste.

Inside the office, several people were seated, likely discussing the company’s future development plans, each holding documents and reading.

When they saw Xu Wanting and Xu Shuying push open the door, they were all startled.

Xu Mo’s expression immediately darkened.

“Xu Mo, I know you’re in there! Big sis… there’s something we need to talk about!” Xu Wanting hurriedly said, “It won’t take much time. Can you talk to your us first, please?”
