After accidentally sending a late-night reading to her ex-boyfriend

Xiao Heng, abandoning his usual mild attitude, became furious.

"Mo Chenyuan, what good will this do you? It's not like your Mo family can have absolute power. Yu Yan is a friend we grew up with. This time, I'm protecting Yu Yan."

Xiao Heng became impatient for quick success and instant benefits.

"I am willing to pay compensation and give up the projects that the Mo family has been eyeing overseas. Name your price. I just want Yu Yan to be safe."

"I only want Su Yuyan to pay the price for her actions. What she did cannot be resolved with just an apology, and even if she did apologize, I would never forgive her!"

Mo Chenyuan's tone could be described as resolute.

"Alright, since you insist, let's see who's more capable."

After Xiao Heng finished speaking, he turned and left.

Mo Chenyuan remained calm and composed, but Jiang Yue was a little nervous.

"Mo Chenyuan, will there be any problems? Since you people are able to stand above everyone else, then Su Yuyan's actions might not be too excessive. Xiao Heng seems like someone you shouldn't mess with."

"I'm even more difficult to mess with."

Mo Chenyuan thought for a moment: "However, we must be wary of Xiao Heng. Since he's forcing me like this, I can't be blamed for the consequences."

Jiang Yue was still wondering what Mo Chenyuan meant when Xiao Jing arrived that evening.

……

When Xiao Jing saw Jiang Yue, his eyes were still sparkling, just like before.

He fell in love with Jiang Yue at first sight.

He was naive and innocent. Although he knew Jiang Yue was getting married and heard the warning from the Xiao family to stay away from her, he was still innocent.

Since Jiang Yue's marriage, Xiao Jing hadn't taken the initiative to visit her, and he'd been holding back the news. So when he received Mo Chenyuan's invitation to see Jiang Yue, he was overjoyed.

Xiao Jing was carefree and the Xiao family did not restrict him.

I still think that a rich second-generation like Xiao Jing, who is good for nothing, is not going to amount to anything.

Mo Chenyuan coughed twice before Xiao Jing withdrew his gaze.

"Shen Yuan, this is the first time you've invited me since I found out about your situation. What, are you planning to make up for the wedding banquet?"

At this moment, Xiao Jing still looked righteous.

"About Su Yuyan..."

Mo Chenyuan was about to speak when Xiao Jing quickly waved his hand.

"I heard that Su Yuyan tried to harm Jiang Yueyue, and you called the police. This matter has caused a big uproar. Su's uncle and aunt have already come to our door to plead for help, and my older brother has also agreed. They said that Jiang Yueyue is ultimately alright, so Su Yuyan's life shouldn't be ruined."

What are you thinking?

Mo Chenyuan lowered his gaze and asked.

"She deserves it. I used to think she was a good person, and I thought we knew each other well. If you're going to have a marriage alliance in the end, Su Yuyan is the best choice. How can someone have two faces, one of being innocent, kind, and generous, and the other of trying to harm others, and always aiming to ruin them? Even if Jiang Yueyue doesn't have you by her side, I will still... help Jiang Yueyue."

Jiang Yue was moved by Xiao Jing's loyalty.

But then again...

Xiao Jing lowered his head: "But what can I do? I don't have control over the company or the household. The only thing I have is some money, and they can stop it whenever they want. I know I'm useless. If it weren't for Shen Yuan, I might not have been able to protect Jiang Yueyue. Jiang Yueyue, I'm useless."

"Xiao Jing, you're a real man, at least you're still on my side."

Jiang Yue smiled and comforted Xiao Jing.

"I'll be content if you don't think I'm useless."

What, does Xiao Jing think he has a chance?

Mo Chenyuan frowned as he sat opposite Xiao Jing.

Xiao Jing also felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Shen Yuan, didn't you invite me to dinner and wedding banquet? Where is the food? We're just having a dry chat like this."

"I'm not in the mood to invite you to dinner."

Mo Chenyuan was also very outspoken.

"That's not very nice of you, Xiao Jing. There's still some takeout in the fridge that I just got back and haven't opened yet. I'll go heat it up for you, otherwise what will you eat? We'll go get some in a bit..."

"Xiao Jing, I have something I want to tell you. It's very important and it's related to the Xiao family."

Jiang Yue was stopped when she tried to get the vegetables, and Mo Chenyuan immediately got down to business.

"No... Your affairs with Xiao Heng don't need to consider my feelings. My brother and I... have been estranged for a long time. I didn't think much of it before. I was quite content leaving the company to him and living a carefree life! Who would have thought that we would grow further and further apart now?"

Xiao Jing spoke with a hint of melancholy.

"I need your help to oppose your brother becoming the head of the Xiao family. Otherwise, only two of the four great families will remain."

"Shen Yuan, what do you mean? We've been friends for so many years, family friends for so many years, and the Xiao family hasn't done anything wrong. You're not planning to take action against the Xiao family, are you?"

Clearly, Mo Chenyuan's attack on the Su family has disrupted the original balance among the four major families, and this matter has already spread.

If the next family to join is the Xiao family, Xiao Jing will be in a difficult position.

"I never thought of this. I don't even want anything from the Mo family. My parents are useless, there's nothing I can do! Xiao Jing, it was Xiao Heng who wanted to harm me if I didn't let Su Yuyan go. But Su Yuyan has done so much, I can't let her go, not even for A Yue's sake!"

Xiao Jing agreed with this point.

"My brother... Xiao Heng, he wouldn't do that, would he? The Su family has been on the verge of collapse for a long time, relying on the help of the other three families, especially your Mo family. Everyone already knows that the Su family plans to form a marriage alliance with your family. Even if my brother is confused, he wouldn't make an enemy of you for Su Yuyan's sake."

Mo Chenyuan smiled helplessly.

"I didn't expect Xiao Heng to be so cunning. Perhaps if we had tried to win him over from the beginning, our situation wouldn't be like this now."

Who would have thought that the eldest son of the Xiao family, who is focused on his career, is also a love-struck fool?

It seems the Xiao family has a genetic predisposition to being obsessed with romance.

Perhaps Xiao Jing can understand what Mo Chenyuan is saying.

Because he, too, stood by Jiang Yue's side regardless of everything.

His brother likely shares the same thoughts as him.

Thinking it over, Xiao Jing looked at Mo Chenyuan with a resolute expression.

"I will help Jiang Yueyue. I stand by you in this matter. Not for any other reason than Su Yuyan was the one who did wrong. Even if it weren't for Jiang Yueyue, I, Xiao Jing, will help those in need, not those in my own family." Xiao Jing spoke with righteous indignation, but his legs went weak at the last moment: "Mo Chenyuan, he is Xiao Heng, the one who dominates the business world, is ruthless and praised by everyone. To be honest, in my eyes, my brother is more terrifying than you."

"I've always felt that you guys are the same kind of people. You want me, a good-for-nothing who can't do anything, to compete with him for the family fortune? Are you kidding me? Even if I were willing, my parents aren't stupid. How could they possibly give up Xiao Heng and choose me?"

This isn't Xiao Jing being pessimistic; this is simply how things are.

Even Jiang Yue herself didn't know how this matter started.
