Old Master Mo sat on the sofa in silence. His eyes were filled with grief.
But he was suddenly comforted at the thought of the children. It wasn’t so bad!
He was old and could not protect the Mo family much longer. But this grandson, Mo Beihan, had the ability to hold the Mo family together.
Jiang Hongying, who was listening, was bewildered!
“Yun-Yunhao, what did you just say? What six hundred thousand?”
Mo Yunhao wailed, “Mother, hurry up and think of a way to raise money for me. I was cheated while doing business. If word gets out, I’ll have to go to jail. Even if the Mo family can settle it to keep me out of jail, my reputation will be ruined.
“Hurry up and think of a solution! Grandfather, Grandfather, save me!”
Mo Yunhao looked at the stunned Bai Youran and suddenly roared, “Why are you just standing there? Hurry back to the Bai family and get that three hundred thousand yuan back. Or you can forget about having money to spend.”
Get it back?
The roar made Bai Youran snap out of her trance!
How could she get back the money he had given? The Bai family had just publicly announced that she was their daughter and had protected her status. If she went back to ask for the money now, the Bai family might get angry and abandon her.
“How did you lose money? Who dared to cheat you? You were so capable, and you’ve earned so much money in a short time. How did you lose money?”
Bai Youran felt unable to think. Why was she so unlucky as of late?
After she got married, she should have been leading a life that everyone envied.
After getting married, she should have been driving a beautiful car every day, shopping and buying lots of pretty clothes and jewelry.
She had just gotten married, but nothing was like how she imagined it would be.
Where had things gone wrong?
She had just preserved her status as the Bai family’s young lady, and now something had happened to Mo Yunhao. Would she have any money to spend in the future?
Jiang Hongying was terrified when she understood!
She hurriedly flung herself in front of the Old Master. “Old Master, Yunhao is your grandson. You must save him! If word gets out, Yunhao will never hold his head up again.”
“Six hundred thousand yuan. Just six hundred thousand yuan will save Yunhao. Old Master, please hurry and find the money to save him. All right?”
Old Master Mo looked at this mother and son. It had not occurred to the two of them that Mo Yunhao would really go to jail. They just wanted to solve the problem and prevent news of it from spreading. They were not worried about jail, but humiliation.
In their eyes, a grandson of the Mo family did not need to go to jail even if he broke the law.
That was the most terrifying thing!
No wonder Beihan wanted to deal with them. Such scum would drag down the other Mo children sooner or later.
Old Master Mo grunted coldly. “You speak so lightly. Do you know how much six hundred thousand yuan is? Could you casually come up with a sum like that?”
In that era, 600,000 yuan was definitely a huge sum of money.
Most wealthy families could not produce that kind of cash.
Not even the Mo family.
They had many antiques, gold, jewels, porcelain and other things. But they did not have much cash.
Old Master Mo knew that if the wealthier families sold their antiques and treasures and added that to their gold, they might be able to scrape up 600,000 yuan. But few could achieve that easily.
Six hundred thousand yuan was enough to invest in all the children in the family for their education.

“We don’t have that much cash. You think of a way to raise money! You used to spend so much, be it on cars or houses.. I’m sure you have plenty of money.”
