Chapter 131 InterludeChen Mo had lunch at Lin Nanxi's place and then drove to Southern Media. "Hey, hey, hey, I can't stop, I can't stop" Just as Chen Mo was about to reach Nanfang Media and passing the art gallery next door, he saw a girl on roller skates rushing towards him on the long slope in front of the art gallery, shouting. Seeing this, Chen Mo immediately slammed on the brakes. "Ahhh~~" "boom!" Chen Mo had already stopped the car, but he still watched the girl rush towards him screaming, and then with a bang, she fell on the hood of his car. "Ouch~~ It's over." The girl was muttering to herself and was about to stand up. When she looked up, her eyes met with Chen Mo in the car, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. "Hello." Chen Mo raised his eyebrows and greeted. "Hi," the girl responded with a dry laugh and a wave.
The two greeted each other through the windshield in front of the car. Seeing that the little girl was still alive and well, Chen Mo was relieved and got out of the car to check, "Are you okay?" "I'm fine, thank you." The girl jumped down from the hood of the car. "I'm asking about my car." Chen Mo looked at the girl strangely. "Oh." The girl stood there awkwardly. Chen Mo looked at the girl in front of him who was fully armed with a helmet, gloves, elbow pads, and knee pads, while his car was already stationary at the time. In this case, the problem was obviously with his car, as the paint was scratched. The girl also saw the scratches on the car and quickly apologized: "Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." "You have to pay compensation even if it wasn't intentional." Chen Mo deliberately put on a stern face. "I will compensate you. How much do you think it will cost?" The girl looked at Chen Mo's car and thought about her own pocket money. She was not very confident. "Do you know what kind of car this is?" Chen Mo threatened. The girl pursed her lips and said, "I know, Range Rover." "Huh? You really know that." Chen Mo was a little surprised. Not to mention the little girl in front of me, most girls can probably only recognize the brand of a car, and they can't tell the model or type. "I usually like to assemble various car and airplane models." said the girl. As soon as Chen Mo heard it, he knew that the girl must come from a well-off family, and assembling models is not a hobby that saves money. "Now that I know, it's easy to tell. What's your name?" "Fang Taichu." "Little boy Fang Taichu, right?" Chen Mo repeated.
"Do you know that it is very dangerous to rush onto the road while roller skating? If I hadn't stopped just now, what would have happened if I had hit you?" "I'm not a kid." Fang Taichu defended himself, and then explained, "That was an accident. I didn't mean to play on the side of the road. I just learned roller skating not long ago. I didn't expect to slide down the slope so fast and couldn't stop." Chen Mo looked inside the lobby of the art museum. The whole thing was an inclined surface with a large water system in the middle. In the center of the water system was a stone sculpture, which was designed with a very artistic atmosphere. Although the place is big enough, it is not very suitable for practicing roller skating. Not only is there a pond next to it, but the long slope extends to the door, and there is a road right outside, which is obviously unsafe. "Why don't you find a flat ground to practice when you're just starting to learn?" Chen Mo asked. Fang Taichu pointed to the next door and said, "I used to practice on the flat ground in front of that building, but it was rented out a few days ago, so I can only practice here." Chen Mo looked in the direction of Fang Taichu's finger, and saw that it was his own Nanfang Media. "You are not allowed to skate next door, but you are allowed to skate here in the art museum?" Chen Mo asked curiously. "My mother works here." Fang Taichu explained. Chen Mo touched his chin and said, "Oh, so that's the case. Then I won't be afraid that you will run away without money." Fang Taichu's face fell when he heard this, but he still said seriously: "Brother, I won't run away. If I don't have enough money to compensate you, I will call my mother." Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, "Okay, your attitude is very good and you are quite responsible." "Then brother, how much do you think it will cost to repair it?" Fang Taichu asked cautiously. Chen Mo looked at the small scratched area and didn't say anything like there was no need to compensate. The money wasn't a big deal, but he felt that the children should have a deeper impression and remember it better. This behavior of rushing onto the road is no less than a ghost poking its head out. If he had not been driving slowly in the industrial park just now, he might not have been able to react and brake. If they had really collided just now and the other person was a child, he would have to bear part of the responsibility even if it was not his fault. If you encounter this situation while driving, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck. Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "You just said that your mother works in an art museum, right?" "Yeah." Fang Taichu nodded, not understanding why. "Then please invite me to the art exhibition." Chen Mo said. "Ah?" Fang Taichu's face was confused. Chen Mo looked at Fang Taichu's silly look and said, "I haven't been inside this art gallery yet. If you treat me to an exhibition, I'll consider it as the cost of repairing the car." Fang Taichu finally realized that Chen Mo didn't want her to pay for it, and she felt a little embarrassed. "Is this okay?" Chen Mo smiled. The little girl was still shy. "If you insist on paying me, that's fine." "No, no, it's fine to go to the exhibition, let's go to the exhibition." Fang Taichu agreed quickly, then thought of something and asked tentatively, "Brother, you're not going to complain to my mother, are you?" Chen Mo shook his head, "Don't worry, I won't complain." There was still a bit of disbelief in Fang Taichu's eyes.
Chen Mo said with a smile: "If I really wanted to file a complaint, I would just ask you to call your mother to come and pay the money. There is no need to go through so much trouble." Fang Taichu thought about it and it seemed to be the case. Chen Mo added: "But you have to promise not to slip like that next time. You were lucky today and nothing happened, but you can't be so lucky every time." "I went into the exhibition just to get to know the place. Next time if I pass by and see you sliding dangerously down the road, I'll have to talk to your mother." "No more sliding, no more sliding. Next time I'll find another place to slide." Fang Taichu promised. She thought of what happened just now and felt a little scared. Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "Next time if you want to skate, you can go skate next door." "Next door? But there..." Fang Taichu hesitated. "That's my company, feel free to go there. If anyone chases you away, just tell them I agree." Fang Taichu's eyes lit up, "Really?" Chen Mo pulled the corner of his mouth, "Fake." "Hehe, thank you brother." Fang Taichu also realized that Chen Mo was teasing her. "Don't be too happy, you still have to invite me to the exhibition first." Chen Mo reminded. "No problem, brother, just follow me in." Fang Taichu agreed readily. After Chen Mo parked the car, Fang Taichu carried a pair of roller skates and walked into the art museum with Chen Mo. Seeing this, Chen Mo joked, "No need to go through the back door?" "No need, I know everyone here." Fang Taichu patted his chest and promised. Fang Taichu walked forward, greeted the ticket inspector at the entrance of the art museum, and then muttered something and waved to Chen Mo. Seeing this situation, Chen Mo guessed that Fang Taichu's mother must hold a high position in the art museum, otherwise the child of an ordinary employee could bring people in so ostentatiously. But it makes sense that ordinary employees are unlikely to bring their children to the workplace to play roller skating at will. Sure enough, when Chen Mo and Fang Taichu entered the art museum, they saw many staff members greeting Fang Taichu. Fang Taichu also called them uncle and auntie, and his mouth was quite sweet. "I didn't expect you to be so popular." Chen Mo teased. Fang Taichu chuckled, "I inherited it from my mother." (End of this chapter)
