"I want to come back too...but my home is too far from school, it's inconvenient for me to go to school, and I've paid rent for half a year, and the landlord won't refund it."
In Zhou Mo's mind, money is no small matter. He wasted half a year's rent and was going crazy.
Liu Xiangru was about to say something when Zhou Mo suddenly interrupted, "Mom, please don't worry about me. I'm an adult now. If Yu Yizhou really harassed me, I would be happy to call the police and have him arrested. That would be a relief."
"Girl, what nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Xiangru patted her.
Zhou Mo smiled and said to Liu Xiangru with a smug look, "Mom, I finally got home. What delicious food are you going to make for me? Do you have braised spareribs?"
Liu Xiangru rolled her eyes at her and said, "Your father has such high blood lipids, how can he eat that kind of greasy food?"
He shook off Zhou Mo's arm and went into the kitchen carrying the basket of vegetables.
Zhou Mo pouted and turned to her father Zhou Zheng. She said half coquettishly, "Dad, I want to eat spareribs."
"Okay, I'll buy it for you later," Zhou Zheng said in a low voice.
"No, I'll go by myself, but... I want to eat what my mom cooks."
Zhou Zheng frowned, "You're putting me in a difficult position."
Liu Xiangru heard it and came out of the kitchen with a knife in hand. The father and daughter rolled their eyes at each other and said to Zhou Zheng, "I can cook it for Momo, but you can't eat it."
Zhou Zheng was speechless and looked at Zhou Mo helplessly.
Zhou Mo looked at his father sympathetically and said, "Dad, my mom is right. You should eat less of this kind of thing. I'm going to buy some spare ribs."
Having said that, he ran out the door happily.
Liu Xiangru watched Zhou Mo leave, then turned back and glared at Zhou Zheng, "It's all your fault."
"What do you mean I spoiled you? It's obviously you who spoiled you." Zhou Zheng felt wronged.
They both knew it, it was obvious that they both spoiled him.
Zhou Mo has been the apple of their eye since childhood.
I only have this one daughter, so I have to love her very much, right?
…
Zhou Mo went to the stall in the vegetable market she often visited and cut two pounds of pork ribs. She chatted with the owner warmly for a few words, and the owner gave her two more pieces.
She can't whistle, otherwise she would definitely whistle at this moment, carrying a bag of ribs.
As soon as I entered the community unit door, I almost bumped into two people head-on.
Zhou Mo just looked up.
A surprised voice came from the other side, "Momo?"
Zhou Mo was dazed for a moment before he barely recognized the person. It was Han Chen's mother Liang Xinyun.
It's no wonder Zhou Mo didn't recognize Liang Xinyun. Over the past decade, Liang Xinyun had changed a lot. Her face was a sickly pale, and her face was thin, making her cheekbones stand out. Her hair was no longer a neat, shoulder-length bob. Instead, it was grown out and loosely pinned back with a shark barrette.
With her was a young woman wearing a goose yellow pearl-trimmed Chanel-style dress and short, milk-coffee-colored hair that hung over her ears, which was the most popular Korean style this year.
Weekend politely greeted, "Hello, Aunt Liang."
Liang Xinyun smiled and said, "It's amazing that you can still recognize me."
She pulled the person next to her over and introduced him, "This is Zhou Mo, our neighbor across the street and Han Chen's high school classmate."
The young woman nodded, showing a polite and sweet smile, and extended her hand to Weekend. She said, "Hello, my name is Xu Qingli, and I'm Han Chen's colleague."
Zhou Mo was about to return the handshake, but her hand stopped mid-air and she suddenly withdrew it. She said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I bought some meat and my hands are dirty."
"It's okay," Xu Qingli gracefully withdrew her hand and took Liang Xinyun's arm. "Auntie, should we go back to the sanatorium or to Han Chen's place?"
"Let's go back to the nursing home. Han Chen is busy with work, so we won't bother him anymore," Liang Xinyun said, looking at Zhou Mo. "Momo, we're leaving first. When my house here is renovated, I'll invite you and your parents over for dinner. We can get together."
"Okay, I'll talk to my parents. If you need anything, you can always ask them. They're always at home."
Liang Xinyun looked at Zhou Mo and sighed, "Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors."
Zhou Mo smiled embarrassedly.
After seeing the two off, Zhou Mo strode upstairs.
As he walked, Zhou Mo was thinking, that Xu Qingli just now... She was Han Chen's colleague, so she was also an orthopedic doctor. Female orthopedic doctors were quite rare.
Doesn’t Han Chen already have such a beautiful and marriageable woman by his side? Why does he still need her to get the marriage certificate?
I don't understand.
Zhou Mo shook his head and took the key to open the door.
In the evening, Liu Xiangru stewed pork ribs. Zhou Zheng couldn't resist his greed and ate a piece, which led to a scolding from the mother and daughter.
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Zhou Zheng took the initiative to hand over the TV remote control and watch a family emotional program with Liu Xiangru.
Zhou Mo was running code in his room.
Mentor Shen Qingyi recently had a project to be completed. Shen Qingyi was used to being unhurried and had always taken his time, so the project did not move forward as he had hoped. Faced with the completion of the project, he could only cram and speed up the work.
Zhou Mo is Shen Qingyi's only PhD student. His junior and senior students are all masters. They can do odd jobs, but Zhou Mo has to take on the heavy responsibilities of building databases and running codes.
This is also one of the reasons why Shen Qingyi actively helps Zhou Mo deal with daily chores, for fear that Zhou Mo will delay the progress of the project because of Yu Yizhou's affairs.
At eleven o'clock, Zhou Mo sent a message to Shen Qingyi: The database has been built, and the code will be able to produce complete data results tomorrow. Tomorrow, ask the junior brothers and sisters to fill in the results in the paper and publish it as soon as possible.
Shen Qingyi sent a "crying" expression: Teacher knew you could do it.
Zhou Mo broke out in a cold sweat.
When others go to graduate school or doctoral studies, they are pushed by their supervisors, but for her, it is the opposite. She pushes her supervisor.
Zhou Mo often joked to herself that if she continued like this, her mentor would sooner or later be pushed by her to become a scholar or academician.
Shen Qingyi sent another message: "I've found the lawyer you asked me to help you find. It's Liang Dongyan from LT. I'll give you his assistant's contact information later."
Zhou Mo: Thank you, teacher.
Shen Qingyi: You have helped me a lot, you are welcome.
Zhou Mo sighed deeply. When he thought about Yu Yizhou, he couldn't be happy. There was always a feeling of depression in his chest that he couldn't vent.
I hope the lawyer introduced to her by the unreliable Shen Qingyi can be more reliable.
Zhou Mo was worried, so he took out his phone and did a random search for "Liang Dongyan".
You don’t know until you search, and you’ll be shocked when you do.
He turned out to be one of the founders of the most famous law firm in Dongjiang.
Looks very reliable.
Without saying anything, Zhou Mo quickly added the WeChat business card that Shen Qingyi sent him.
It passed quickly over there.
Before Zhou Mo could reveal her identity, the other party said, "Hello, Ms. Zhou, I am Mr. Liang's assistant, Fang Shuo. Mr. Liang and you would like to meet at 3:00 p.m. this Saturday. Is that okay?"
Zhou Mo was overjoyed: Of course.
She longs for weekends, but she has things to do during the weekdays.
Fang Shuo: Okay. I'll send you the location.
Zhou Mo clicked on a restaurant called "Zhulu Zhongyuan".
Just hearing the name, Zhou Mo's heart trembled. How much would it cost?
