Chapter 374: 144, Lin Mo’s Achilles’ heel exposed? Chen Shanhe’s comeback against the odds!_5
“But after causing such a big commotion, it’s going to be tough for Lin Mo to come out unscathed. Chen Shanhe’s move to sacrifice a pawn to save the rook definitely won’t spare him. There’s bound to be a fierce battle between them, and it’s still too early to say who’ll win or lose,”
“There are many who would help Chen Shanhe, this guy is also quite enigmatic, maintaining so many relationships that even I can’t see through them.”
“Take my advice, don’t inquire, don’t ask. Everything’s a mess at the top right now. Anyone who pops up at this time is bound to get cut. As for you and me, as long as we stay in our lanes, there’s nothing to worry about.”
“This chessboard of Grand Xia won’t be overturned just because of a live broadcast.”
Wu Jingguo nodded and said politely, “Yes, I’ve taken your point. Now, back to the matter at hand, let’s continue our game and not discuss state affairs.”
In fact,
It wasn’t just Wu Jingguo, or just Rakshasa City, but the entire Grand Xia where nearly all major families and powers were in a state of panic, fearing that Chen Shanhe was just the beginning and the next blow would fall on them.
After all, Lin Mo’s actions were really bizarre!
He was just an ordinary citizen, yet he ended a broadcast with a bang, and what’s most crucial was that he even got away unscathed!
…
In Northern Sea City, downtown.
A luxurious apartment.
It took Lin Mo and the others almost half an hour to emerge from the kitchen, but the dining table was now full of delicious dishes.
Everyone sat around the table in a very harmonious and joyful atmosphere.
Li Jinwen was the first to pick up his chopsticks, took two pieces of buttered prawns, gave one to Lin Changshui and the other to Li Jinshan, and said with a smile, “Dads, try this, it’s made by your son himself.”
“Where, I just helped out~~” Lin Mo said with a smile.
“Yo, you’re getting shy now, eh? Afraid it won’t taste good? Sister-in-law, that’s a hint for you!”
Lin Siyu was also quite happy at the moment and teased.
“Get out of here! A dog can’t spit out ivory!!”
Lin Mo stood up, lifted his foot, and pretended to kick Lin Siyu.
Lin Siyu quickly got up and dodged behind Zhang Li, “Hey, hey, gentlemen should use words, not fists!”
“Move aside, let me discipline this girl!”
“Don’t you dare move, if you do, I’ll never let you off!!”
Zhang Li said bitterly, “Bro, please don’t make it hard for me!”
“You little brat, only picking on him because you can!”
Lin Mo stood with his hands on his hips, clearly annoyed.
Seeing this, Li Jinwen, Li Jinshan, and Lin Changshui all laughed.
The live broadcast was a huge success… It had significantly lessened everyone’s burden!
“Alright, alright, give your sister some space.”
“Girl, you’re not allowed to be disrespectful to your brother anymore!”
“Everyone sit down and eat.”
“Let me taste how these buttered prawns turned out!” Li Jinshan took a bite and said with a smiling face, “Mmm, it tastes good, it’s a pity your mom isn’t here to try, too.”
Lin Mo, holding his phone, said, “Dad, don’t be impatient, I’m sending her a video message right now, it should connect soon.”
Everyone’s gaze turned to the phone screen, waiting for the video to connect so they could share the day’s joy with the two of them.
…
At the same time.
Overseas, in a manor.
The sun was shining brightly, and waves of floral scent drifted in through the window.
In the living room.
Lin Xiaoxiao sat by the window, doing homework assigned by Zhao Huixian, next to her was a baby cot where Lin Xi lay sucking his thumb, turning over and over in the sun.
Xu Qin sat on the couch, still immersed in the shock of the live broadcast she had just watched.
Zhao Huixian said with a smile, “In-law, it’s all good now. With our son making such a buzz, even if Chen Shanhe doesn’t die, he’d have to skin off a layer. Our family will soon be able to live a peaceful life!”
Xu Qin nodded and lamented, “Yes, it’s been almost a year. It’s tough on our son to have carried so much on his own, and to have arranged everything so well for us. Thankfully, it’s all coming to an end.”
“It must be almost 10 o’clock in Grand Xia now, I wonder what they are doing.”
“I don’t dare to call them…”
Although staying overseas meant no danger, it was still hard because they were always worried about the safety of their family back home.
If possible, they would prefer to give up safety and fight alongside their family.
Zhao Huixian thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t we send them a video to ask what they’re doing?”
Xu Qin shook her head: “No, let’s not. My son said to avoid contacting them as much as possible. They will contact us whenever they have time.”
Zhao Huixian nodded; it made sense.
Chen Shanhe had not yet been brought to justice, and many other threats still remained, so the danger was not completely eliminated.
Just as she was about to speak, she noticed that Lin Xiaoxiao was staring out the window idly, not doing her homework.
“Xiaoxiao, what are you daydreaming about?” Zhao Huixian, bringing out her teacher mode, went over to scold, “You need to focus when you’re doing your homework. Your recent grades have slipped a lot. If you keep this up, your dad will definitely scold you when he gets back.”
Lin Xiaoxiao pointed out the window and said, “Grandma, look, there’s an airplane! A little airplane!”
An airplane?
Zhao Huixian was taken aback, looked in the direction Lin Xiaoxiao was pointing, and saw two small drones flying in the distance.
The manor was surrounded by beautiful scenery, and it was common to see similar scenes.
However, Zhao Huixian, still cautious, drew the curtains and said, “Alright, stop looking. Don’t get distracted. Finish your homework first, and if you behave, grandma will take you to play with a drone.”
