Chapter 240 Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills



Xiao Xunfang took two steps back. "So you're Chen Mo. You're a really pretty girl."

Hello, Auntie.

"Sister-in-law... Sister Zhirou."

Chen Mo struggled to swallow back the word "sister-in-law" and sweetly called out "Sister Zhirou".

Liang Zhirou breathed a sigh of relief. If Chen Mo had called her "sister-in-law" in front of her mother, she would have jumped out of the window on the spot.

She's not married yet...

"I came here to get tutoring from Sister Zhirou." Before Xiao Xunfang could ask, Chen Mo said to himself.

"She...she's about to take the college entrance exam..." Liang Zhirou added timidly, not daring to meet Xiao Xunfang's gaze.

Xiao Xunfang nodded slightly, "There is a desk in Zhirou's room, you can go to your room to study."

"No need, Auntie, I'll be fine in the living room." Chen Mo forced a shy smile, looking quite embarrassed.

"Alright, Auntie won't bother you any longer." Xiao Xunfang took the remote and turned off the TV, then said with a light smile, "Zhirou, go wash some fruit for her."

This girl seems a bit shy, unlike her brother.

However, this family has really good genes; they all look just like Xiaoxia.

She muttered to herself, then, supporting herself against the wall, slowly walked into the bedroom.

"Sister-in-law, you two are really going all out," Chen Mo whispered to Liang Zhirou as he watched the bedroom door slowly close.

Liang Zhirou turned her face away, too embarrassed to respond, but the weight in her heart finally lifted, and she quickly took out her phone to send a message to Chen Lu.

The next second, Chen Lu opened the door like a thief, looking around before daring to enter the living room.

Ignoring Chen Mo's disdainful look, he pointed to the door and mouthed to Liang Zhirou, "I'm leaving?"

Liang Zhirou nodded, then waved blankly at Chen Lu, her eyes still seeming to show a hint of reluctance.

Before leaving, Chen Lu glanced at Chen Mo. The savior he had once seen suddenly seemed a bit of a hindrance.

Otherwise, he could have given her a kiss before leaving.

Before Chen Mo could even speak, Chen Lu had already vanished in a flash.

Chen Mo was stunned by the speed. After he came to his senses, he grinned and said helplessly, "Sister-in-law, you must not spoil him in the future. He dares to come and take advantage of you like this. He's too bold."

"Yes... I'm the one who called him."

Liang Zhirou sat on the sofa, fidgeting with her hands, and stammered as she spoke.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo turned around, his mouth agape as if struck by lightning.

"Sister-in-law, let's watch a TV series!" After a while, she recovered from her shock and plopped down next to Liang Zhirou.

“But you only have 159 days left until the college entrance exam,” Liang Zhirou said softly as she flipped through Chen Mo’s exam paper.

? ?

How come you remember it more clearly than I do?

However, Chen Mo was too embarrassed to say this. She gathered her emotions slightly, and her eyes welled up with tears. She looked at Liang Zhirou with a wronged expression.

"Sister-in-law, you have no idea, now as soon as I get home, my parents confiscate my phone and won't let me sleep until I'm studying until 11 o'clock!"

"I haven't been able to sleep at night lately, they're driving me to the brink of depression. Could you just watch some TV with me to relax? Don't force me to study..."

Liang Zhirou blinked in confusion. The images of Wang Xiaoxia and Chen Guanglin described by Chen Mo didn't quite match what she knew.

No, it's not just a little bit, it doesn't match at all...

However, she was easily swayed by emotions, and after Chen Mo pleaded with her a few times, her bottom line quickly lowered.

"Just study for half an hour, and then I'll watch TV with you, okay?" She spoke gently, like a kind older sister next door.

“Let’s watch it first, and then I’ll go home and study it myself for the next half hour,” Chen Mo continued, cracking jokes.

Knowing she was bad at talking and couldn't possibly win an argument with Chen Mo, Liang Zhirou had no choice but to pick up her phone and show Chen Mo the message Chen Lu had just sent her.

The message clearly stated: Don't let Chen Mo make a wasted trip, why don't you give her some extra lessons?

Judging from the timing, Chen Lu sent the message almost the instant he stepped out the door.

"Hey, why do you listen to my brother in everything?" Chen Mo persisted. "Aren't you afraid he'll take advantage of you? You should make him listen to you, and if he doesn't, make him kneel on a keyboard to set an example for the family."

"Because he would definitely think of me." Liang Zhirou was still looking down at the test paper, but a happy smile had already appeared on her lips.

"......"

Seeing the girl's sweet smile, Chen Mo was stunned for a long time before silently saying, "Sister-in-law, I don't love you anymore."

......

While Liang Zhirou was tutoring Chen Mo, Chen Lu on the other end was also busy. Having just escaped from a dangerous situation, he turned around and went back to the company.

The game only needs to wait until New Year's Day for its public beta launch; he doesn't need to put any more effort into it. He is currently planning to start preparing for the lawsuit.

Whether it's a case of better late than never or a case of striking while the iron is hot, their company must now have mature legal capabilities.

Although they don't necessarily have to win this lawsuit, they can't afford to lose too badly either, otherwise, everyone will probably try to take advantage of their company in the future.

So you should still try your best if you can.

We can't let his connections at this university go to waste. There are so many renowned professors; if we could just curry favor with one of them, the lawsuit would be much easier.

The difference between universities, besides the disparity in educational resources, lies here: the difference between the university presidents and professors you regularly interact with and the jobs your classmates take after graduation is significant.
