"Well," Qi Tan continued, "you should also pay more attention to villains like Ren Huaibo. If you want to deal with him, you have to start with his uncle. Without someone to protect him, he will lose his voice. Also, yesterday he joined forces with that group to force you out. It wasn't just because of the dispute between you and him about the scholarship, there was a more important reason..."
"Money," Zhou Mo said bluntly, "The money you promised to the School of Health Management. I know."
"As long as you understand," Qi Tan gritted his teeth and said, "But...dating someone like that who's only interested in profit makes me question your judgment."
Zhou Mo was originally quite grateful to Qi Tan, but Qi Tan always said bad things about her, which completely destroyed the little good impression he had of her.
"No matter how bad my vision is, I'm already married. It's none of your business," Zhou Mo glanced at Qi Tan, pushed the door open and got out of the car.
Qi Yan got into his Mercedes Benz and immediately paused the game on his phone when he saw Zhou Mo coming.
"Senior Sister, what did you talk about with my brother? Why did it take so long?"
"Nothing," Zhou Mo said with a serious and disappointed look on his face, "Just play your game. Children shouldn't ask about adult matters."
"..." Qi Yan reacted for a moment and said dissatisfiedly: "I'm not a child, okay?"
"You're not a child, but you do things that even children can't do?"
"What did I do?" Qi Yan said stubbornly.
"Let Ren Huaibo say bad things about me. He seems like someone like that can be trusted. It has nothing to do with you. Why are you trying to get involved?"
"I...I just can't stand what he said to you?" Qi Yan said with a gloomy face, "Senior sister, I helped you, why are you like my brother and scolding me instead?"
"I'm very grateful for your help, and I want to say thank you," Zhou Mo said earnestly, "but can you weigh the pros and cons? What's the situation now? If you start a fight and drag your brother into it, is that the result you want?"
"Then I can't just watch Ren Huaibo jumping around like that."
"Wait a minute, let's finish the disaster relief work first. As for Ren Huaibo... can't we just wait for an opportunity? Those who do evil will eventually perish. Let's wait, there will definitely be a time to deal with him."
Qi Yan pouted, "I'm afraid there's no chance. Even my brother is afraid of Ren Huaibo's uncle."
"There's nothing we can do. Let's just keep our distance and not provoke him. If we can't provoke him, can we hide from him?"
"But...but I just can't swallow this!"
"Many people can't bear this," Zhou Mo said. "I can't bear it either. I'm trying every possible way to deal with it, but the premise is that after we retaliate, we won't injure the enemy by 200 and ourselves by 1,000. Don't you know what's going on with your brother? The dispatch center and dispatch station he's in charge of are seriously short of staff. It's good to have people working, and you're adding fuel to the fire. Qi Yan, I'm begging you, can you please not be so impulsive?"
Qi Yan had been taught a lesson by Qi Tan before, and now Zhou Mo said these words to him again. He knew, of course, that he had thought too simply and acted too impulsively, and there were many things wrong with him.
"I understand." Qi Yan lowered his head, looking apologetic.
"However, regardless of whether you handled this matter properly or not, I still want to thank you solemnly," Zhou Mo said, "Thank you for protecting me."
"They are all small things," Qi Yan was a little depressed at first, but when he heard the thanks, he became happy again.
Seeing Qi Yan's carefree self again, Zhou Mo couldn't help but laugh too.
"Senior Sister, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll treat you." Qi Yan said generously.
"I haven't made up my mind, and I don't have an appetite. You can order the food yourself. I'll just make do with whatever I want."
"How can that be possible?" Qi Yan complained, "Aren't you feeling uncomfortable eating these boxed lunches? I feel like I haven't had a proper meal in days."
"It's okay. The lunch boxes at the dispatch center taste good, better than those at the dispatch station."
"It's true. It's different when there's a leader around," Qi Yan said. "The boxed lunches at the dispatch station are killing me. Broccoli is a delicacy. I'm sick of eating cabbage every meal."
“…”
***
The car drove to Xiangbin Yali.
Zhou Mo said he was going to buy something, so he asked Qi Yan to get out of the car first.
Qi Yan waved to her and ran into the community.
Zhou Mo went to the supermarket.
I haven’t been home for almost two days, so I have to buy some groceries. I haven’t stocked up on daily necessities at home for a long time.
She only picked up a few urgently needed items and made some simple purchases.
After returning home.
I thought the place would be empty and lonely, but as soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by the aroma of food.
Zhou Mo exclaimed in surprise: "Mom!"
"Hey," Liu Xiangru came out of the kitchen excitedly, "Momo, you're finally back."
Zhou Mo casually placed the things in his hand at the entrance, slipped on his slippers, and came up to give Liu Xiangru a bear hug.
"Mom, I miss you so much."
"Oh my, I miss you too," Liu Xiangru took Zhou Mo's arm off her neck, "Come and let mom see if my daughter has become thin due to hunger."
"It's okay, the boxed lunches at my dad's workplace are pretty delicious," Zhou Mo said.
"What else can I say..." Liu Xiangru sniffed around Zhou Mo, "You stink. Go take a shower quickly, the water is already heated for you. Don't you have mysophobia? You haven't taken a shower for two days, I don't know how you can stand it."
Zhou Mo smiled sheepishly, "It's a special situation, I'll just bear with it and come over."
"Go wash up, dinner will be served soon."
"Why."
Zhou Mo's happiness was beyond words.
Is there anything better than returning home after a long journey to find your loved ones waiting for you?
Zhou Mo suddenly remembered that when she was in college, she went back home twice a month. No matter when she went back, Liu Xiangru would prepare dinner for her, and she would always make her favorite food.
At that time, I was ignorant and didn’t think it was a big deal. But after experiencing more, I realized that the waiting and companionship of family members are the most precious things.
Zhou Mo didn't need to tell Zhou Zheng about going to the dispatch center for support, as Zhou Zheng's old colleague had already told him about it.
When Zhou Zheng found out about this, Uncle Zhang had already been sent to the hospital.
Zhou Zheng asked Zhou Mo what was going on, and Zhou Mo gave a brief reply.
Zhou Zheng asked Zhou Mo to focus on his business and stop chatting.
In the afternoon, Zhou Mo knew that he could go home, so he told Zhou Zheng.
Unexpectedly, Liu Xiangru came to greet her early.
Zhou Mo came out of the shower.
"Where's my dad?"
"He went fishing with his friends again, somewhere."
"Where's Aunt Liang?"
"Oh, I didn't ask today, but she went back to the nursing home yesterday and sang opera with those old men and women all day."
"She didn't ask Han Chen, right?"
"Han Chen didn't ask, but he asked you."
"How did you reply?"
"Just say you went to the dispatch center," Liu Xiangru said, "Don't worry, your Aunt Liang..."
"Bang bang bang."
