Transmigrated into a vicious stepmother, striving to raise the little villain

Mo Jingyu turned off her phone, got up, and went into the bathroom. When she came out after washing up, she found a missed call on her phone. Just as she was about to call back, the other party called again.

"Hello, is this Ms. Mo Jingyu?" A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.

“It’s me,” Mo Jingyu replied while drying her hair.

"Here's the thing, the evidence you submitted a few days ago regarding Mr. Zhou Yu's involvement in prostitution has been investigated further and we have the results. We hope you can take some time to come to the police station."

Upon hearing this, Mo Jingyu quickly switched to another app to ask the director what time the show would end tomorrow. After learning that the recording would finish in the morning, she said into the phone, "I'm free tomorrow afternoon. Can I come over then?"

"Okay," came the affirmative reply from the other end of the phone.

The live broadcast ended smoothly at noon the next day. Jiang's mother, dragging her suitcase, said with a helpless yet doting smile, "I have to go back and check on things. If I don't go back soon, your old man will cause a huge uproar."

Mo Jingyu hurriedly stepped forward to help Jiang's mother carry her luggage to the door, and replied with a smile, "Okay, Mom, please be careful on your way." After seeing Jiang's mother off, Mo Jingyu walked around the house and quickly found Jiang Yan'an playing on a tablet.

She knelt down and said gently, "An'an, Mommy has some work to do this afternoon. Can you play at home by yourself?"

Jiang Yan'an looked up, her eyes sparkling, and asked while holding up her tablet, "Brother Zi'ang said he'll be coming here with his mother this afternoon. Can I go play with him?"

Mo Jingyu thought that Jiang Yan'an would have more fun if he had a friend with him, so she took out her phone and sent a message to ask Zhao Momo if it was convenient for her.

After receiving a positive reply, Mo Jingyu drove Jiang Yan'an to the recording studio that afternoon.

Upon seeing Zhao Momo, she warmly opened her arms and hugged Mo Jingyu, saying coquettishly, "Oh, I missed you so much!" Mo Jingyu smiled and patted Zhao Momo's head, saying, "The next episode will air in a week, then we can see each other every day again."

"That's different. Going on variety shows means dealing with those scheming women. I really don't want to go," Zhao Momo muttered meaningfully.

Mo Jingyu smiled helplessly and said, "I have some work this afternoon, and it's not convenient to take the child with me. I'd appreciate it if you could help me look after him." Zhao Momo smiled and rubbed Jiang Yan'an's little head, saying, "What are you saying? An'an is much better behaved than our little boy."

Hearing this, Li Ziang, who was standing to the side, lightly punched Zhao Momo with his fist and protested, "Mom, don't I have any dignity?"

Mo Jingyu squatted down, carefully explained a few words to Jiang Yan'an, and then drove to the police station.

Upon arriving at the police station, Mo Jingyu immediately spotted Ouyang Zhenhua and his apprentice. The dark circles under their eyes were so thick they looked like ink could drip from them. Mo Jingyu was surprised and asked, "What happened to you two...?"

Ouyang Zhenhua waved his hand wearily and said, "I've been keeping an eye on Zhou Yu these past two days, and it wasn't for nothing. By the way, I called you here because we've been digging deeper into the leads you provided, and we've discovered a few people behind Zhou Yu, but we're not sure yet if they're the mastermind."

Mo Jingyu pondered for a moment and said sincerely, "Thank you for your hard work. If I have any new clues, I will definitely provide them to you in time."

“Thank you very much for your cooperation, Miss Mo. We called you here because we currently only have conclusive evidence of Zhou Yu’s crimes. If we arrest Zhou Yu now, it might alert him, so…” Ouyang Zhenhua explained with a troubled expression.

Hearing this, Mo Jingyu roughly understood and said, "I know, I understand. It does take time to find out the whole criminal team. I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, I've already terminated my contract with Zhou Yu. When he's arrested won't affect me."

Ouyang Zhenhua was very grateful for Mo Jingyu's understanding and cooperation. Mo Jingyu returned to her car and casually dialed Mei Lan's number. The phone rang a few times before being answered.

"Hey, Sister Mei, Zhou Yu's arrest won't be quick. Let's deal with the company's business first."

Meilan expressed her understanding on the other end of the phone, and then said, "We need to get the company sorted out quickly, otherwise that young girl who applied for the job will keep having all sorts of wild thoughts."

"Okay, I'll be at your house in a bit. You can prepare the materials, and we'll go register the company and choose a company address while we're at it."

Thirty minutes later, Mo Jingyu picked up Mei Lan in his car. Mei Lan sat in the passenger seat, carefully examining the documents in her hand, and asked, "You made an appointment, right?"

"Of course, I booked it a long time ago," Mo Jingyu replied confidently.

Mei Lan asked curiously, "Have you decided what name to give the company?" Mo Jingyu looked at the flat and open road in front of the car and said firmly, "Let's call it Xiangyang Media."

"To grow towards the sun, that's a good name," Mei Lan nodded in approval.

Mo Jingyu showed Mei Lan several houses, and they finally chose a detached villa. Looking at the villa, Mei Lan pointed at it with some doubt and asked, "There are only a few of us, do we really need such a big house?"

Mo Jingyu smiled and began to paint a rosy picture for Mei Lan, "There aren't many people now, but that doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Besides, the workplace needs to be warm and comfortable so that employees will feel like the company is their own home, and they'll be more motivated to work."

The two toured the five-story villa carefully, and Mo Jingyu already had a rough idea of ​​the design in mind. She said to Mei Lan, "You contact the design team and communicate with them. I'll be responsible for making the requests and providing the funds."

The company registration process went very smoothly, but Mo Jingyu always felt that the staff were being unusually attentive to her, and she couldn't help but wonder: Have I become so beautiful that people find me irresistible?!

At the same time, Jiang Zhiyan, who was sitting in his office, suddenly sneezed. Seeing this, Shi An immediately asked with concern, "Boss, are you catching a cold? I'll go call the doctor. Should we cancel your afternoon psychology appointment?" Jiang Zhiyan waved his hand, indicating that it wasn't necessary.

Mo Jingyu went to the recording studio to pick up Jiang Yan'an and take her home. Along the way, Mo Jingyu keenly noticed that Jiang Yan'an was in low spirits and seemed rather sullen. She asked softly, "An'an, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Jiang Yan'an pouted and said aggrievedly, "Mom, you haven't spent much time with me these past few days, and I'm a little unhappy. I know you're busy with work, but I still really want you to spend more time with me."

Hearing this, Mo Jingyu's heart clenched. She had been so busy these past few days; she had truly neglected her child's feelings. She thought about how she had finally managed to raise him to be cheerful, and what if he became emo again?

She glanced at the little dumpling in the back seat through the rearview mirror and said with a guilty look, "It was Mommy's oversight. Mommy will sleep with you tonight and tell you stories, okay? If I can take you with me to work in the future, Mommy will definitely take you with me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan'an's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously.
