Chapter 323: Chapter 324: The Plight of the Tang Song 2

After spending a few days with Tang Song, Mo Ran worked hard at playing the role of his girlfriend, but she realized she still couldn’t immerse herself in it.

She thought Tang Song was unaware of her inner thoughts, not realizing that he had long seen through them.

People in love are often more sensitive. Mo Ran was too polite in his presence, and too good to him, which led him to guess that her actions were deliberate.

If she truly liked him and saw herself as his girlfriend, she would be particularly dependent on him, and wouldn’t be so overly polite.

However, Tang Song didn’t say anything. He knew Mo Ran needed time to grow affection for him, and he was willing to wait. He believed that after a month, Mo Ran would start to like him.

Even the slightest bit of affection would mean he wouldn’t let go of her.

Recently, the firm took on several cases where despite having all the evidence, as soon as they went to court, the other side would present more compelling evidence and defeat them.

For Tang & Song Law Firm, these were unprecedented failures. Suffering defeats in several cases one after another, their reputation in the industry started to decline.

The firm had guessed someone was sabotaging them in the shadows, and it could very well be Gu Yixuan.

Without showing his emotions, he earnestly searched for the weak points in each case, wanting to strike the opposition with an unexpected blow.

But their opponent came prepared and did it deliberately. No matter how capable he was or how meticulous his thinking, it was impossible to guard against everything.

In just one week, the firm’s performance continuously deteriorated, and the stock price plummeted considerably, putting Tang & Song Law Firm in an unprecedented crisis.

Every day, Tang Song would work late into the night before sleeping, but during the daytime, he still made time to visit Mo Ran, keeping their appointment.

Mo Ran was only aware that he had been very busy recently, but was oblivious to the specifics of what was happening.

In the blink of an eye, several more days had passed, and China’s traditional festival, the Spring Festival, was just around the corner. The issues that needed handling at Tang Song’s company were piling up, creating chaos due to the workload.

To make matters worse, Wen Sha was waiting for him at his doorstep every day, stubbornly refusing to leave, which only added to his irritation.

Through the phone, Mo Ran could hear his exhaustion.

She said with concern, "You still need to rest properly, don’t overwork yourself, okay?"

"Hmm, don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself," Tang Song replied, his tone only softening when he spoke with Mo Ran.

"Do you want to come over for dinner on New Year’s Eve?" she asked.

"I will definitely come. Wait for me that day, I’ll probably be a bit late," he answered.
