Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Chapter 31: 30, go home, see mom and dad, and sister. _i



“Honey, what do you think we should do?”

Li Jinwen, utterly unable to make up his mind, could only turn his gaze to Lin Mo by his side.

Liu Meihong was also waiting for Lin Mo’s final decision.

If it were an ordinary parent from out of town, she wouldn’t bother so much; allowing a transfer would already be a grace.

The most straightforward solution would be to have Lin Xiaoxiao withdraw from school outright—it wouldn’t break any rules and would also please Zhang Ziyue’s parents.

In fact, at the education bureau meeting the day before yesterday, some leaders had made it clear, openly and covertly, that they needed to be extra careful when dealing with student conflicts.

They didn’t name names, but everyone knew exactly who they were talking about.

It was only because Lin Mo had something on her that Liu Meihong found herself between a rock and a hard place, trying to find the best solution.

“Alright, we’re aware of the situation,” said Lin Mo after some thought. “Principal Liu, could you give us some time to discuss it as a couple?”

“Also, I’d like to request a day off for Xiaoxiao, if that’s okay?”

“Mm, no problem, taking the child out to clear her mind is appropriate.” Requesting leave wasn’t a big deal, so Liu Meihong readily agreed, “Just remember, you need to make your decision quickly. The sooner you transfer Xiaoxiao, the less it will affect her grades.”

“Thank you.”

“You’ve been very helpful.”

Lin Mo and Li Jinwen thanked the principal separately and then left the office with Lin Xiaoxiao, who was waiting in the hallway, and left the school grounds.

Walking on the sidewalk outside the school, the couple wore troubled expressions. Li Jinwen couldn’t help but murmur in complaint, “What kind of situation is this? It’s not like our Xiaoxiao has offended them. Why do they keep picking on us?!”

“What’s with the education bureau leaders, does having power mean they can bully people?!”

“Hmph, if they push me too far, I’ll take it to the court and sue them!”

Lin Mo, leading Lin Xiaoxiao by the hand, could only offer words of comfort, “There’s a solution to every problem, panicking won’t help.”

“Let’s have lunch outside today, what would you like to eat?”

Li Jinwen shook her head with irritation, “I’m not hungry, how can I have the appetite to eat right now?”

Lin Mo continued to ask, “What about you, Xiaoxiao? Is there anything you’d like to eat, or any place you’d like to visit? Mom and Dad will take you this afternoon.”

Lin Xiaoxiao herself was also in a bad mood; wiping her red, swollen eyes, she said pitifully, “Dad, I want to visit Grandpa’s house. It’s been so long since I last saw him.”

Lin Changshui also lived in Rakshasa City, not in North City District, but in the Eastern New District.

He too rented a place there.

The family used to live together, but things got inconvenient when Lin Mo got married and had a child, prompting Lin Mo to move out and rent a place of his own.

Lin Changshui was very fond of his granddaughter, and every time something upset Xiaoxiao, she thought of her grandparents.

“It indeed has been a long time since we last visited Dad,” Li Jinwen reflected, then continued, “I was thinking of saying this when we looked at cars; I just forgot. We’re making money now; we should get Dad a new phone.”

Seeing his wife’s thoughtful side, Lin Mo felt incredibly touched and teased with a smile, “Not angry anymore?”

“Angry, why wouldn’t I be angry? I wish they would just go…” Seeing her daughter next to her, Li Jinwen stopped herself and paused before continuing, “But anger is just anger. I’m not angry at our family.”

“Besides, my husband earned over a million in one day; who knows who will come out on top in the future!”

Excited by the topic, Xiaoxiao hastily asked, “Dad, Dad, did you sell that Guang… Guangxu Yuanbao?”

Lin Mo patted Xiaoxiao’s head and said with a smile, “Of course I sold it. The profit wasn’t much, just 1.24 million.”

“Wow…” Xiaoxiao’s eyes sparkled as she counted on her fingers, “One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand… Seven figures! That’s more than our teacher’s salary for many years.”

The sight of their daughter so enchanted by money once again successfully brought smiles to Lin Mo and Li Jinwen’s faces.

“Alright, let’s forget about the unpleasant things for now.”

“Off to the supermarket to get some supplies, then rent a car, and head to Grandpa’s house!”

“Hey, wait for me!”

“Dad, run fast, don’t let Mom catch us!”

“Haha…”

“Slowdown, don’tfall!!”

“Go, Dad, go!!”

Lin Mo sprinted forward with Xiaoxiao in his arms while Li Jinwen chased after them, and all three faces were brimming with joy.

Every hurdle can be overcome,

Everyone’s life is filled with troubles. Learning to adjust one’s attitude is of utmost importance.

Two hours later.

The family of three, laden with large and small bags of daily necessities, got into the rented sedan and set off for the Eastern New District.

Inside the car.

Lin Mo connected to Bluetooth and dialed his mom’s phone.

Dial tone… more dial tones…

The call was soon connected.

“Hello, son.”

Before Lin Mo could speak, Lin Xiaoxiao shouted loudly, “Grandma, guess who lam!”

Initially, Lin Mo’s mother had a rather robust voice, the typical kind you’d find in village women, not the type to speak in a low and petty manner; usually, she would resolve any issue by raising her voice.

But upon hearing Lin Xiaoxiao’s voice, her tone instantly became shrill with happiness effervescing in her throat.

” Is that Xiaoxiao? Grandma has been missing you so much!”

Lin Xiaoxiao also called out, “Grandma, I missed you too! Mom, Dad, and I are on our way to your place; we’ll be there soon.”

“Is Grandpa at home?”

” Grandpa is not at home. Are you guys coming back? Then I’ll call your grandpa later and tell him to hurry back!”

“Okay, I’ve brought a lot of nice things for Grandpa.”

“Haha, Xiaoxiao, you’re so sweet. Mo, what made you decide to come back today? Doesn’t Xiaoxiao have school today?”

” Let1 s talk in detail once we get there; I’m driving right now. What has Dad been busy with lately?”

“Sigh, who knows what he’s busy with? Lately, he’s been leaving early and returning late. Sometimes he doesn’t come home the whole night. If I ask him, he gets anxious, so I dare not keep asking.”

Listening to his mother’s words, Lin Mo realized that it seemed Dad was having trouble getting paid for his construction work.

Lin Mo sighed inwardly, not wanting to delve into it further with his mom; he simply responded with a smile, “Alright, then make some extra dishes tonight. Is little sis at home too? Let’s have a good family get-together.”

“Sure, sure, sure! I’ll start right now. Ask Xiaoxiao what she wants to eat, then text it to me. I’ll go get the groceries; it’s still early, and the supermarket should still have everything!”

“Mom, don’t go to too much trouble; a simple meal will do!”

Li Jinwen interjected.

Yet Lin Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, “Grandma, I want to eat your braised pork belly! And tomato scrambled eggs!”

“All right, all right! I’ll go buy it right now~~ ”

4 p.m.

Lin Mo parked the car in front of a simple dwelling in Hero Village, Huinan Town, Eastern New District.

All around were very ordinary rural houses, and high-rise buildings were seldom seen.

Without looking at a map, it would be hard to believe that such a place was also within the bounds of Rakshasa City.

But that’s just the way it is, just as the Imperial Capital’s Forbidden City is bustling, but not far beside it, you’ll find an area of low, decrepit, narrow houses.

After parking the car,

Lin Mo was the first to get out.

Already waiting at the door, a stylishly dressed woman around 25 years old said teasingly with a smile, “Yo yo yo, big brother, you’re doing well! Got yourself a car?”

She is Lin Siyu, Lin Mo’s younger sister. Although she may not have stunning looks, she has a lively and extroverted personality and is the glue that holds the family together.

“I rented it. If I want to buy a car, you’ll have to get rich first and help me out!”

Lin Mo opened the trunk and pointed at the contents, saying, “Come over and help; these are all for Mom and Dad.”

“Auntie!!!”

Lin Xiaoxiao had already run down from the car, bouncing over excitedly.

“Xiaoxiao is such a good girl.”

Lin Siyu naturally picked up Lin Xiaoxiao, smothering her with kisses, and then said helplessly, “Big bro, I’d help you carry stuff, but my hands are full!”

“I’ll head back first then. Make a couple more trips and you’ll be fine.”

“Sister-in-law, don’t move; my brother is strong. Come with me to the house, Mom has been waiting for you for half the day!”

“Mm, okay!”

Awkwardly,

only Lin Mo was left alone next to the car, cruelly abandoned.
