Chapter 137:113, a big bargain? A jadeite raw stone worth 30 million!_2
“This might be your only way to get a wife.”
Not long after,
Lin Mo drove a rented car out of the underground parking lot.
The weather was nice today, sunny with a gentle breeze.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Jinwen said with worry, “I feel that it will be quite difficult for Zhang Yihua to find someone in the future. If he starts by taking someone to anime expos, werewolf games, or even maid cafes… hiss…”
Li Jinwen inhaled sharply.
Lin Mo also found it amusing and laughed, “That’s not necessarily true. Some girls like these things nowadays. If he happens to meet someone with similar interests, then it’s settled. We are getting old; it’s the younger generation’s world now.”
“Besides, if ‘Divine Enthronement’ becomes a hit and he makes money, will he still worry about not finding a partner? The girls will flock to him!”
“Hey, the child is still here; you’re spouting nonsense.” Li Jinwen gave Lin Mo a look and lowered her voice to ask, “Lin Mo, tell me honestly, did you show off in the class group just so that girls would throw themselves at you?”
“Don’t try to fool me; at that time, several female classmates came asking me if you really won the ten million lottery.”
“I may have left the group, but I know exactly what’s going on.”
“Where’s the lottery ticket? Where’s the money?”
Uh…
Dark history,
Absolutely dark history!
Lin Mo now found his past behavior in the class group rather amusing.
But it’s also quite normal,
Having lived in poverty for thirty years and looked down upon for the same amount, suddenly becoming rich overnight and having an unlimited future, is it possible not to want to get back at those who once looked down on oneself?
Anyway, he wasn’t that lofty.
At that time, he probably had the typical nouveau riche mentality, just wanting to pretend.
However, now after experiencing a series of events, he had grown a lot, and his way of speaking and doing things had changed significantly from the past.
If asked to show off in the class group again, he might still do it, but not as crudely as before.
Maybe that’s called growing up.
Lin Mo, gripping the steering wheel, said awkwardly, “A true hero doesn’t dwell on past glories! Comrade Jin Wen, student Xiaoxiao, please buckle up, I’m taking you to a great place.”
“As for anything else, Jinwen, please be assured, in this lifetime I will only have you as my woman, and Xiaoxiao will only have you as her mother!”
“Hmph, that’s more like it.” Li Jinwen didn’t say it out loud, but hearing her husband’s sweet words made her heart swell with happiness.
She had a lot of confidence in Lin Mo.
After all, the two of them had suffered together all the way.
Although there are couples who grow apart after becoming wealthy, she believed that she and Lin Mo wouldn’t!
She wouldn’t, and neither would Lin Mo!
After about an hour’s drive following the GPS, the car smoothly parked in the parking lot of an ancient town.
Lin Mo got out of the car and woke up their daughter, who had fallen asleep in the back seat, and carried her out.
The little girl was so excited about going out to play that she hardly slept the night before.
Lin Xiaoxiao rubbed her eyes, still drowsy, and asked, “Daddy, where is this? Where are we?”
Lin Mo said with a smile, “This is Tangxi Ancient Town, a fun place. Hurry up, Dad will take you around and we can buy some gifts too. Don’t you like Hanfu? They should have some for sale here!”
“Really!?”
Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes sparkled, and her drowsiness vanished instantly.
The family headed cheerfully towards the ticket booth, and after waiting in a long queue, they finally entered the park.
Perhaps because the weather was nice, there were quite a lot of visitors in the scenic area, making it very lively.
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was just waking up, became as spirited as if she’d been injected with adrenaline, looking around and finding everything new and exciting.
Since she was still wearing her Nezha outfit, she received a lot of greetings from uncles, aunties, and children.
This made Lin Xiaoxiao incredibly happy, and she hopped and skipped as she walked.
Lin Mo held her left hand, and Li Jinwen held her right, and the family wandered leisurely on the antique streets, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation in life.
Overall, the scenic area was quite nice.
The buildings had distinct ancient town characteristics, and from time to time, actors in traditional costumes performed various acts in the streets, with all kinds of snacks available along the roadside.
Compared to other scenic areas where snacks cost tens of yuan, this place had much more regulated prices, only about 25% higher than outside, making the prices very reasonable and highly rated.
After all, it was just stinky tofu, grilled gluten, octopus balls, roasted sweet potatoes, sugar-coated chestnuts—pretty much the same stuff you find in snack streets around the country, without much taste difference.
The atmosphere, however, was quite good.
But just a few steps in, they were approached by strangers with cameras or aunties holding signs, asking if they wanted their picture taken.
Once or twice was fine, but it got annoying after being asked too many times.
And there were many people taking photos all over the streets.
Every few steps there was a honey or a princess, and amongst them, some in various strange costumes.
They would have minded their own business, but many disliked others passing in front of them, or they would give you a disdainful look if you glanced their way for a second longer, acting as if they owned the place and you were an intruder in their living room.
It was quite mood-dampening.
Of course, most of the girls were well-mannered and didn’t behave like that.
Besides these, there were also many live streamers and short video shooters around.
