After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 690 - 688: Empower Her!
Chapter 690: Chapter 688: Empower Her!
Xiao Mo’s expression grew even darker...
However, he didn’t have time to contend with Xia Wenjin now, as Song Sinian had already gone missing, and he needed to make his next move.
He got off the bed and headed straight for the bathroom. When he came out of the shower, Xia Wenjin was already lying in bed, asleep.
Xiao Mo glanced at the person on the bed, reached for the mobile phone on the desk, and silently went to the next room.
He stood in front of the spacious floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the endless night and the twinkling lights, a slow, pleased smile curving his lips.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Xiao Jinglan.
"Start contacting the shareholders of the Song Group now."
After he had finished instigating Xia Wenjin, he had shared his subsequent arrangements with Xiao Jinglan.
At that time, he had prepared two plans, just so he could deal with the current situation when Xia Wenjin made her move.
He had also considered what to do if Xia Wenjin failed, but unfortunately, that plan was no longer needed.
He hadn’t expected the Fengya Family to act so swiftly, leaving him no chance to use his backup plan.
Leaning against the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, he felt great and opened the liquor cabinet next to the coffee table, taking out a bottle of fine wine to savor.
He knew Xia Wenjin always indulged in luxury; the red wine she purchased was naturally expensive.
Thinking that Song Sinian’s fate was still unknown gave him a sense of satisfaction.
However, recalling that Xia Wenjin had also disappeared before and then returned with a new identity, Xiao Mo’s brow furrowed again.
It seemed he needed to accelerate the takeover of the Song Group, so even if Song Sinian returned under another’s guise, it would be too late!
He was deep in thought when his phone suddenly vibrated.
It was Xiao Jinglan.
"I started contacting the shareholders after hearing the uncertain news of Song Sinian’s fate. I even have some good news! Old Master Song fainted and was hospitalized immediately upon hearing of Song Sinian’s car accident!"
This was her best chance to take control of the Song Mansion.
Although Old Master Song had indirectly driven her out of the Song Family, her status as the Song Family’s daughter-in-law was genuine.
With Song Sinian missing and his fate unknown, and Old Master Song gravely ill in the hospital, who was left in the Song Family?
If she could just manipulate Old Master Song, she would be able to seize control of the Song Family’s power!
Xiao Jinglan was stirred by this thought.
She couldn’t believe that as her life neared its end, such a significant turn of events had arrived!
Indeed, her son was the chosen one; otherwise, that despicable Xia Wenjin, who had nearly perished, wouldn’t have assumed a new identity to assist her son.
Xiao Mo was clearly uplifted by the news as well.
If Xiao Jinglan could regain control of the Song Family, she would represent Old Master Song externally!
Their aspiration to secure the CEO position of the Song Group would be all the more effortless!
"Mom! Keep a close watch on Old Master Song; whether we can turn the tables depends on this!"
Xiao Jinglan understood as well.
She soon sent a reply.
"Don’t worry, I will head over to Old Master Song today and ensure everything is taken care of!"
If Old Master Song was already unconscious, she wouldn’t need to resort to any measures.
"But if he had only temporarily fainted and tried to find Song Sinian, he couldn’t blame him for being rude!"
Xiao Jinglan looked at the message she received on her phone, and a fierce gleam briefly crossed her eyes.
She quickly packed up and had her driver take her to the hospital.
Having heard that Mr. Song had just been rescued, Xiao Jinglan’s eyebrows almost knotted in tension.
How could he have been rescued?
She had just seen the grave expression on the doctor’s face and thought that Mr. Song might not survive this time.
What a pity...
"The patient’s condition is not optimistic. He cannot withstand any major shocks. When communicating with the patient, try to consider his emotions..."
The doctor’s face was serious, and he looked at Xiao Jinglan with great solemnity.
Xiao Jinglan knew it was not the time to reveal herself, so she pretended to be worried and looked at the doctor, asking, "Can we go see the patient now?"
As she spoke, she picked up the handkerchief in her hand and pretended to dab her eyes as if she was heartbroken.
The doctor frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and then nodded gravely, "You may, but do not stay too long. The patient is old, and his emotions should not fluctuate too greatly."
"I understand, doctor," Xiao Jinglan nodded, her head lowered as she followed the doctor into the ward.
Seeing Mr. Song lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, Xiao Jinglan was also taken aback.
It was her first time seeing Mr. Song in such a forlorn state, as if his soul had departed.
However, she quickly collected herself.
Xiao Jinglan pinched her thigh hard and walked over with reddened eyes, "Old Master, my condolences..."
After saying that, she suddenly realized something and hastily corrected herself, "No, I mean, Old Master, what I’m saying is that Sinian hasn’t been found yet, there is still hope. You must hold on, wait for Sinian to..."
Wait for his body to be found, and then join him!
She thought mockingly. Mr. Song had always adored his grandson, Sinian, since he was young, hadn’t he?
Now that Sinian was dead, wouldn’t his grandfather follow?
Fine, let them be together then! Humph!
Mr. Song glanced at Xiao Jinglan covering her face, pretending to cry, and almost couldn’t keep it in.
Her acting was too fake; if he hadn’t been through much bigger storms, her performance just then would have definitely made him laugh out loud.
Glancing at his old friend standing next to Xiao Jinglan with a grave and bitter expression, Mr. Song tilted his head to the side and looked away.
Ever since Sinian had told him about faking his death to go on a honeymoon in Country E, he had started making arrangements.
This hospital had already been staffed by his people from the inside out, even the person who "rescued" him was an old friend of many years.
He was worried at the time that this old man might slip up and give them away.
Unexpectedly, his acting was quite convincing. If he hadn’t known it was all an act, he would have thought he was truly on his deathbed.
Mr. Song took a deep breath and turned back to Xiao Jinglan, saying, "I’m afraid I can’t go find Sinian myself while I’m in the hospital. You’ll have to oversee this matter."
As he spoke, he tried to look at Xiao Jinglan with hopeful eyes, "Our Song Family is depending on you now, you must stand firm..."
Xiao Jinglan was completely stunned; she hadn’t expected Mr. Song to delegate responsibility to her!
And to delegate it to her!
She could hardly believe her ears!
"Old Master, rest assured, I will dedicate myself fully to the Song Family. Leave Sinian’s matter to me!"
