Ah Mo did not say anything and just silently stared at Gu Qiwu, his reserved and imposing manner not giving in to Gu Qiwu's.

While as Ah Mo was sizing him up, Gu Qiwu also fixed his gaze on him while his dark eyes refracted a shifting light. His stern face was a little tense, but you could not quite read his expression.

The two of them seemed to confront each other for quite a while before Gu Qiwu spoke up, "Nice to meet you, Ah Mo! Looks like you still remember me." His deep voice contained a hint of amusement, but it sounded cold to Ah Mo.

"Mr. Gu of the Hui Gu Corporation, you were quite popular a while back. It'd be quite hard to not remember you." Ah Mo's face was calm as he responded calmly.

The curve on the corner of Gu Qiwu's lips widened. Then, he pointed at the seat across him. "Have a seat!"

Ah Mo looked at him thoughtfully, then walked over and sat down.

"I remember the last time we sat across each other like was a few years ago when Mu Yinan came to City B to talk business. I made an appointment with him, but he didn't come and sent you instead. He regards you quite high, and you have quite a status in the Mu family."

Gu Qiwu's inquisitive gaze paused on Ah Mo's face. Although his tone seemed a little meaningful, Ah Mo could hear a hint of disdain. Still, he was used to these things because he had seen such tricks before.

"Mr. Gu, you're wrong. There's no such thing as a hierarchy in our Mu family, just the elders and those who come after them," Ah Mo replied.

Gu Qiwu suddenly laughed. His calm tone was filled with a hint of disdain as he taunted, "No hierarchy? Our Mu family? Are you already part of the Mu family? I heard that you were just an orphan that Mu Yinan adopted from the orphanage."

Even if that were hard to hear, Ah Mo's expression did not change at all. He looked at Gu Qiwu calmly, "I think you don't want to see me today just to discuss my background, do you?"

"You're quite a hard one. I heard about you from Ah Yong. You used to be Mu Yinan's expert help, and now you're a capable subordinate of Mu Yuchen's. Even Ah Yong was praising your capabilities. However, these things cannot cover up the truth of your background."

When Gu Qiwu said this, he paused and examined Ah Mo again before continuing, "You should have a better chance, and not lower yourself to just be Mu Yuchen's subordinate as Glory World Corporation's common project manager, don't you think?"

In the end, Gu Qiwu's tone seemed to sound like he was probing. His dark brows were slightly raised as he looked at Ah Mo with amusement.

Ah Mo slowly lowered his gaze, hiding the shadow that flashed in his eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"You know what I mean! But I won't point it out either."

A sneer flashed across Ah Mo's lips. "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu. I don't understand what you mean."

"You and I understand each other. I personally admire your capabilities and think you're very responsible. You've stayed at the Mu family for so many years, and done so much for them. Mu Yuchen should at least arrange for a better position for you, shouldn't he? Do you need me to make it any clearer? I accidentally found out a while back that your wife's pregnant too. As a man, don't you think that you should give your child a better life?" Gu Qiwu's voice continued to drone on.

"Let my woman and child have a better life? Mr. Gu, do you know this logic too?"

When he heard this, Ah Mo found it even more ironic. This man did not mention Lingshi at all, and instead, talked at length about these things.
