Chapter 461 - MA RUI'S PRIDE
The inauguration ceremony went smoothly. After short speeches from President Mu Liang and President Mo Zhen, both Presidents cut the rep string together. The area filled with heavy applause and camera flashes.
The customers came and looked around the shopping mall. There were varieties of products at different prices. Anyone could come and buy from here. Cheap products were on the first ten floors, products with moderate prices were on the next ten floors and the expensive products were on the last ten floors.
The customers complimented the interior and exterior designs. It was both elegant and lively. Most of all, children loved the small theme park. The security inside the mall and the park were tight. The meals were healthy and delicious. Overall, everyone was satisfied.
Ma Rui praised Han Luo's effort and "The idea of yours is really excellent, Luo'er. But I'm worried that rich customers will bully the poor customers and won't let them use the elevator."
John Lu aka Han Luo smiled at her and explained properly. "That won't happen unless someone is asking for trouble. You see, there are six elevators. The first two elevators go to the first ten floors. The second two elevators go to eleven to twenty floors and the last two elevators go to twenty one to thirty floors."
She added, "Even after that if someone causes trouble, we have security cameras and listening devices. Even if it's a VIP customer, the culprit will be taken out of the mall without hesitation. The rules are clearly written in front of the shopping mall. No rudeness is allowed."
"My Luo'er is the best!" Ma Rui hugged her.
"Mom, I'm John Lu right now." Han Luo panicked.
"Ah Luo is mine, mom. Not yours," Mo Yuan complained. He had an aloof expression.
"Luo'er, don't listen to him," Ma Rui demanded.
"Give it a rest, honey," Mo Zhen told his wife, feeling helpless.
At that moment, Mo Yuan's cell phone rang. It was his assistant. He excused himself and went further away from them to answer the call. "What's wrong?"
His assistant spoke in an urgent voice, "Boss, something happened."
-------------------
Meanwhile, in London, Tang Yujin went to Han Luo's house.
Han Sheng Ming opened the door for him and said, "You said something happened. What happened? Did you manage to make a mistake and come for my help?"
Tang Yujin smirked. He sarcastically remarked, "It might happen, in your dream."
"How cruel! All my friends are selfish. No one cares for my heart," Han Sheng Ming complained.
Tang Yujin frowned. "Don't be creepy. Why will we care for your heart? You got a girlfriend for that."
Han Sheng Ming sat on the couch and hugged the cushion. "She is working till late at night because she wants to spend some time with me after graduation. I love her so much."
"No time for lovey dovey chat. Check this out." Tang Yujin turned on his laptop and showed his friend a website.
Han Sheng Ming was confused. "What am I looking at?"
Tang Yujin explained with a serious expression, "Someone from Xiao Yuan's company took pictures of Xiao Yuan with his family in Paris and shared it in his company forum."
Han Sheng Ming shrugged not understanding his friend's reason behind showing the picture. "What's wrong with that?"
Tang Yujin's eyes were cold. He replied, "Nothing. The problem is little Luo is there with them as in disguise of John Lu. They uploaded the picture to slender her."
"What?" Han Sheng Ming was startled. He wasn't expecting this.
Tang Yujin narrated shortly, "They are saying that she was close to Xiao Yuan's family and that's why she got the project. They are defaming her as a gold digger."
Han Sheng Ming clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "Who could have done this?"
Tang Yujin shared his opinion. "Someone in the company who anted that international project I guess. I think little Luo would know better than anyone."
Han Sheng Ming slammed the table. "Damn those people! Little Luo Luo disguised herself so that no one can blame her for getting any position as a fiancée of Xiao Yuan. Now I'm getting mad."
Tang Yujin leaned against the sofa. He stated, "I don't think you will be able to do anything. If someone has to do something, that is Xiao Yuan."
"If he doesn't do anything, I'll slaughter him." Han Sheng Ming's eyes were bloodshot.
Tang Yujin tried to calm down his friend, "No need to get all bloody."
"Fine! If he cannot even protect my baby sister from those malicious people. I won't hand her over to him," Han Sheng Ming stubbornly declared.
------------------
In the meantime, in Paris, Mo Yuan's family and Han Luo already found out about the news. They went to a VIP room to take a break from the party.
Ma Rui was furious, "Those losers! How could they try to spread malicious rumors about my Luo'er?"
Mo Zhen stated, "After handing over this project to Luo'er, some Executives began to feel jealous of her and that's what let this do something shady."
"How could they!" Ma Rui was on the verge of exploding.
Mo Zhen eased his wife, "Calm down, honey. Xiao Yuan will take care of it."
Han Luo quietly sat on the corner. Seeing Ma Rui throwing tantrum, she mumbled, "Whatever it is, I cannot reveal my identity anytime soon."
"Don't worry. As long as you don't want it, no one will disclose your disguise. Furthermore, everyone saw how hard you worked. Even the Board of Directors of the Mu Corporation like your charisma. They can give solid proof of your success tonight. Nothing will happen," Mo Zhen assured her.
"Thanks, dad." Han Luo smiled at him. She was forever grateful for having a father like him.
Mo Zhen answered, "It's my job to protect my children from harm."
At that moment, Mo Yuan came back and stated, "Dad, please call for an emergency meeting for the Executives and the Board of Directors. I want everyone to be present."
He glanced at Han Luo and went to her. "Are you tired?" he asked.
"No, I'm fine. What will you do?" Han Luo was worried that she caused trouble for Mo Yuan who was already tired working on this project.
Mo Yuan squeezed her hands and said, "We will confront them. Together."
"Okay.." There was no reason for Han Luo to say 'no'.
