Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

At that time,

the elevator doors opened.

Song Xuyan took the initiative to stand aside, blocking the elevator door while slightly bowing and saying, “If there’s a problem with your health, then it would be my greatest fault.”

“How about this, could you spare two precious hours? I could find a couple of beautiful nurses, skilled ones, to help you recuperate?”

All of Lin Mo’s family members had gradually been discharged from the hospital, and Song Xuyan was clearly aware that he needed to create another anchor point in Lin Mo’s heart.

As long as that anchor was in place, he wouldn’t have to worry about Lin Mo spilling his secrets.

Lin Mo also detected the subtext in Song Xuyan’s words, and once the elevator closed, he asked with a slightly cold expression, “Director Song, are you treating me like that addict?”

The addict referred to was naturally Chen Kainan.

“No, no, no… I really didn’t mean that.” Song Xuyan waved his hands repeatedly, his expression turning to panic at a visible speed, and he quickly explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lin, I shouldn’t have spoken out of turn, my apologies, it’s my mistake….”

Ding.

The elevator doors opened.

Lin Mo felt his waist for a moment, which was indeed a bit uncomfortable.

Having eaten poorly and slept poorly for several consecutive days, on top of doing so much heavy work, was exhausting.

After thinking for a bit, he said, “Forget the beautiful nurses; I have a wife and kids. Save your honey trap for someone else. Just find me a couple of experts in massage and acupuncture.”

Lin Mo wasn’t the type who was totally oblivious to enjoyment, only knowing hard work. Now that the urgent matters were out of the way, taking care of his body wasn’t such a bad idea.

Song Xuyan nodded repeatedly: “Sure, sure, don’t worry, I’ll arrange it right away.”

…..

Acupuncture, massage, traditional Chinese medicine, cupping, scraping….

After the full-service treatment, when Lin Mo walked out of the hospital’s pain department, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

It was as if his body was no longer there.

His bones no longer ached, his waist felt much better, and after catching a little sleep, he felt completely refreshed.

To exaggerate, it was even more comfortable than being intimate with his wife.

That won’t do,

after the New Year, he must arrange for his in-laws and wife to enjoy it together.

As for his parents and little sister, they’d have to wait until their health was fully restored.

“Hu…”

Lin Mo yawned comfortably, then left the hospital, driving the minivan, and checked into a decent-looking hotel.

Going back to the West River was too far, and there was no need.

After checking in smoothly, Lin Mo took out his phone to check the unread messages.

Mr. Hai Dong had sent him two messages.

One said he had already arrived in Rakshasa City, and the other was a reminder to be careful.

It seems he really was considered a valuable asset.

“Mr. Hai Dong, thank you for your efforts. I’ll be in Rakshasa City tomorrow morning; send me a message about where we should meet.”

After replying to Hai Dong’s messages, Lin Mo then sent a video call request to his wife.

Having not chatted with his family for a few days, he was quite concerned about them.

Soon,

the video call connected.

The background was bustling with many people at the village square, very lively.

“Honey, wait a sec, I’ll find a quieter place.” Li Jinwen quickly walked aside, found a quieter spot with fewer people, and said, “Have you finished up over there?”

Lin Mo replied with a smile, “Yeah, pretty much done. What are you all doing over there? It seems so lively?”

“Wait a second, let me show you!” Li Jinwen turned the camera around, aiming at the crowd in front and the temporary opera stage set up, saying, “See that? They’re putting on a play. It was organized by the head of the village, who says it will go on all the way until New Year’s Eve.”

[The Empress Dowager Wu sits in the Buddha hall…. Listen carefully to Liu Bei narrate his home and family….]

The crooning lyrics rose amidst the noisy crowd.

“Oh, Dragon and Phoenix Presenting Auspiciousness? The village head has improved his taste this year.” Lin Mo teased, not surprised by the event since it was similar to previous years, and then with a smile, he asked, “Where are mom and dad?”

Li Jinwen turned the camera again, focusing on two elderly people sitting in wheelchairs, “There, my parents are chatting with the village head, and the village officials are all there too.”

“As for your in-laws, they’re probably up front with your little sister and daughter, joining in the fun.”

Seeing the silhouette of his father, Lin Changshui, talking animatedly with the village officials, Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel sentimental.

They were once just a common family in the village, hardly influential, and could never have hoped for such treatment.

Li Jinwen then asked, “Should I get dad to take the call?”

“No need, let him talk. Just remind him to go back and rest early, and you should also take care of yourself, you know…” Lin Mo rambled on somewhat fussily, feeling a bit naggy himself.

“Oh right, tell the folks that I’ll probably be back the day after tomorrow. Since Zhang Li has woken up, we can go back together for the New Year.” The day after tomorrow was the twenty-ninth of the twelfth lunar month, a day dedicated to ancestor worship according to their local customs.

Aside from having to visit the family tombs, in the afternoon, everyone would gather at the ancestral hall to worship together.

“Alright, I’ll let mom and dad know in a bit. They’ve been looking forward to you coming back,” Li Jinwen replied happily when she heard her husband would be returning, and she immediately advised, “You be extra careful on the road, and if it’s convenient, bring some good wine back with you.”
