Upon hearing Lin Xue's guess, Mo Yuan revealed a sly smile. He first gave Lin Xue a thumbs up and praised her, saying, "Sister Xue is indeed very clever; she can guess the key point right away." However, just as the two were exchanging banter and teasing each other, Wang Wanru had clearly lost her patience.
She frowned, stamped her foot, and said with a hint of reproach, "Oh dear, you two, stop flattering each other! Can't you see how anxious your father and I have been waiting? If you keep taking this long, you'll make us sick with worry!"
Meanwhile, Lin Zhennan, who had been sitting silently to the side, could no longer hide his joy. He chuckled and chimed in, "That's right, that's right, Mo Yuan, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us the details!"
Mo Yuan then stopped his playful fight with Lin Xue. He cleared his throat and solemnly began to recount the whole story. He recalled the scene when he delivered the letter that day. When he learned that the other party's identity was so special and that their power was beyond imagination, he couldn't help but feel a surge of astonishment. What surprised him even more was that the other party had left him with a very good impression.
As the two were talking, the other person asked Mo Yuan with concern if there was anything he could help with. After a brief hesitation, Mo Yuan decided to tell the truth about the problems his parents-in-law were facing. However, to his utter surprise, this long-standing and thorny issue was resolved in such a short time. At this moment, Mo Yuan's gratitude was overflowing. If it weren't for the other person's help, he didn't know how much longer this matter would have dragged on.
Sitting to the side, Wang Wanru and Lin Zhennan understood everything perfectly after listening to Mo Yuan's account. They immediately realized that this mysterious figure was no ordinary person; otherwise, how could he have resolved such a troublesome matter so quickly?
Wang Wanru said sullenly, "Oh dear, what incredible luck! I never imagined that our Mo Yuan would get to know such a high-ranking and powerful person! But perhaps it's true what they say, 'Good people are always blessed.' Mo Yuan, you're truly our family's lucky star! Putting aside the wonderful thing about you marrying our Xiao Xue, just look at how you've even solved the work problems for me and your father. This is truly..."
Wang Wanru, as if she had opened a floodgate, began to praise Mo Yuan endlessly. She kept recounting the various changes Mo Yuan had brought to the family, her joy and satisfaction barely concealed. At this moment, seeing her mother getting more and more excited, Lin Xue quickly interrupted, "Mom, stop praising him! Why hasn't Mo Yuan mentioned such an important thing to us before?"
Wang Wanru finally came to her senses. Her eyes widened, and she said incredulously, "Oh my, you're right! You wouldn't tell us a single word about something so important beforehand, that's just too much! No wonder you refused to let Lin Lei go with you that day. You probably already sensed his extraordinary identity before you even set off, didn't you? Humph, you rascal!" Although her words sounded like a complaint and accusation, her pretty face was full of warm smiles. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she wasn't really angry, but merely joking and teasing.
Mo Yuan immediately noticed Wang Wanru's cheerful mood, so he quickly and sincerely replied, "Actually, I only made a rough guess based on some clues before, and I couldn't be completely sure. Besides, even though the other party agreed readily at the time, I still wasn't very confident. Who could have imagined that things would go so smoothly in the end? Sigh, it's all my fault, making everyone worry about me. If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have told you everything!"
Seeing this, Lin Zhennan, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up to defend Mo Yuan: "That's true. For such important matters, if you don't have reliable information, speaking out rashly might cause unnecessary trouble and worry. But then again, we should thank Mo Yuan properly. Thanks to you!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan quickly waved his hands like tree branches swaying in the wind, his face full of humility. He smiled and replied, "Oh, Mom and Dad, please don't be so polite with me! From the moment I married Lin Xue, we became a loving family! Helping my family solve their problems and share their burdens is just my duty! Besides, I'm genuinely happy to be able to help you!"
Standing to the side, Lin Xue nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Mo Yuan's words. She playfully took her father's arm and said softly, "That's right, Dad, you're being too formal! It's as if Mo Yuan isn't family. I'm so happy that we've successfully resolved your and Mom's work problems! Now I don't have to worry about anything anymore!"
It must be said that these words make perfect sense. As long as Lin Zhennan and his wife can return to their jobs, even if they don't get the promotion and raise promised by the principal, just maintaining their previous work level would be enough for the whole family to live a comfortable life. In this way, even if Lin Xue and Mo Yuan leave home to pursue their careers, they won't have to worry about the livelihood of their family members anymore.
Thinking of this, Wang Wanru couldn't help but smile broadly, and happily suggested, "Such an important and celebratory event deserves a big celebration!" Lin Xue replied with a beaming smile, "Haha, what a coincidence! We just bought a lot of fresh ingredients when we went out. Why don't we all sit down together at noon today, have a good drink, and fully enjoy this joyous moment!"
