Chapter 4 Poor Development

"It's not good for children's development if they drink too many sports drinks."

"..."

The brightly lit hall fell into deathly silence.

The butler who had just appeared at the archway turned around silently and gracefully and returned to the restaurant.

Yu Jingmo blinked and said, "This is the truth."

As she said this, she glanced at the drink bottle in Lin Qingchuan's hand again, and it seemed that there was not much left.

Well, as boys, they will sweat a lot when they go out to play. If they only have a bottle of water at hand, of course they can drink it.

She comforted him: "It's okay, it's not a big problem to drink a bottle occasionally."

Lin Qingchuan suddenly felt that the bottle in his hand weighed a thousand pounds.

"Ahem," a suppressed cough came from the side, "I'll go upstairs first."

After he finished speaking, Lin Hui walked steadily, and his tall figure quickly disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Yu Jingmo turned his feet and saw Lin Qingchuan coming back. It was not safe to take the dessert down.

Soon, the hall, which had been a little lively before, became quiet.

The originally golden sunlight outside the house was blocked by thick clouds, and the house immediately became darker.

Finally, the "statue" in the shadow of the door moved.

His steps were stiff and his movements were slow.

In the dim light, a cylindrical object could be vaguely seen falling into the trash can in a parabola.

**

Without exception, the Lin family's dinner starts at 5:30 to 6:00 in the afternoon.

Today, it was a rare occasion that the man of the house showed up at the dinner table, and dinner... was no different.

The three of them had three dishes and one soup, which were all delicious and satisfying. Yu Jingmo was quite satisfied with the meal.

As long as there are snacks, she is not picky about what she eats for dinner.

Halfway through the meal, the person she thought was least likely to speak spoke:

"There's an auction the day after tomorrow night. Xiaochuan, if you have nothing else to do, would you like to come with me?"

Lin Qingchuan paused for a moment, then nodded, "Yeah."

After getting the answer, Lin Hui said nothing else.

Yu Jingmo was shocked by the rather "businesslike" conversation between the father and son.

After a moment of silence, he picked up a large piece of tender tomato and egg with his chopsticks.

Lin Qingchuan raised his long eyelashes and looked at the woman who was still eating happily.

He didn't see any doubts about the auction on her face, and he wasn't surprised.

Although the two got married suddenly, they appear to be a real couple.

Her father must have told her about this a long time ago.

Therefore, Lin Qingchuan tacitly agreed that the action the day after tomorrow would be carried out by three people.

Until that evening, he appeared downstairs alone in a suit.

"Young Master, it's time to set off." The butler reminded.

Lin Qingchuan paused, glanced at the stairs out of the corner of his eye, opened his mouth, and finally said "hmm".

He went out and got in the car only to realize something was wrong.

Because the next second after he fastened his seat belt, the driver was ready to start the car.

He sat up straight subconsciously, "Uncle Zhang, wait, everyone is not here yet."

The driver was stunned, "Young Master, President Lin will go directly from the company."

Lin Qingchuan frowned slightly, "I know."

Uncle Zhang suddenly realized, "Young Master, are you talking about Madam?"

"Yeah." Seeing that he realized it, the boy relaxed his straightened body and leaned back slightly.

But he soon discovered that Uncle Zhang still hadn't stopped and the car was about to start completely.

His brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed even tighter.

Uncle Zhang is an elder of the Lin family, he shouldn't make such a disrespectful mistake...

At this time, a voice came from the front, dispelling his doubts, "Mrs. Lin told me in advance that she would not go."

Lin Qingchuan subconsciously said, "Wait!"

Uncle Zhang stopped and asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Did you forget to take something?"

Lin Qingchuan was silent for a moment, "Well, I'll go back."

"it is good."

Lin Qingchuan unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car and walked back.

In the villa.

Yu Jingmo lay comfortably on the small sofa in the bedroom.

I ordered a capacitive stylus first and then slowly considered computer accessories and drawing tablets.

The debt owed by Yu Chun was deposited into her account at 7:58 p.m. the day before yesterday.

The next second she blocked all contact information from that end.

She also finished the bag of dessert.

Now I have more than 120 million in my pocket and an exorbitant amount of free time.

She planned to buy a high-performance computer and continue her work-from-home career to earn some living expenses.

But my eyes are a bit dazzled after looking at them, and I haven’t chosen a single accessory yet :)

Yu Jingmo put down the tablet and chose to let himself go.

In her previous life, she also hired someone to help her install her computer.

As expected, professional matters should be left to professionals.

Having decided not to embarrass himself, Yu Jingmo wanted to go downstairs and watch TV.

As soon as she sat down on the sofa, she heard the door open.

When I turned around, I saw Lin Qingchuan who should have been on the road.

"You haven't left yet?" She looked at the boy in the white suit a few more times.

Tsk, isn’t this the standard Prince Charming?

She suddenly became curious about what the male protagonist in the original text looked like.

"System, is the male lead more handsome than Lin Qingchuan?"

[That's not the case. They are equally matched, right? They just have different temperaments.]

Yu Jingmo understood.

So sometimes the second male lead doesn’t lose because of his looks or sincerity, but because of his identity.

If the second male lead becomes the male lead, that’s another story.

"You're not going to the auction?"

Yu Jingmo came back to his senses and turned back to continue flipping the tables. "No, I don't have anything to buy."

Although Lin Qingchuan had already heard Uncle Zhang say this, he still felt complicated when he heard her confirm it in person.

This was the first formal occasion after Yu Jingmo and his father got married, and it was also a good opportunity for her to appear in everyone's vision.

Now she gave up this opportunity lightly.

Looking at this man lazily lying on the sofa watching TV, Lin Qingchuan suddenly felt a trace of envy that could not be ignored.

Lin Qingchuan, who is about to become a high school student, experienced the bitterness of being a social animal several years in advance.

After a long while of no movement, Yu Jingmo glanced sideways and said, "Aren't you going yet? It should be about time, right?"

As soon as the last syllable fell, she keenly caught the envy and jealousy in the boy's eyes.

She was slightly stunned, and a smile of understanding appeared on her lips, "You don't want to go either?"

Lin Qingchuan met the woman's smiling eyes, and suddenly froze, then turned and walked away, "No."

Yu Jingmo looked at his thin back and chuckled, still a child.

But Lin Qingchuan will definitely inherit Lin Hui's position in the future, so he needs to be more familiar with similar occasions and show up in front of people of this class.

And given her status, she had no right to ask him not to go.

Yu Jingmo was thinking about some random things, and his hand was unconsciously pressing the remote control.

Finally, a familiar yellow square appeared on the TV, and she stopped with satisfaction.

It was neither early nor late now, and she had just finished dinner half an hour ago, but she felt like eating again.

Let’s order some takeout!

Just as Yu Jingmo picked up the phone, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a shadow out of the corner of his eye.

She glanced sideways and saw that the child who was just walking out was now sitting on the single sofa.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you have anything else?"

at the same time,

[The host has a mission: Speak up and stop Lin Qingchuan from going to the auction! ]

Lin Qingchuan's handsome face showed no expression. "I'm not going either."

People are most afraid of comparison.

Lin Qingchuan had attended many banquets, big and small, in the past. Although he was reluctant, he went every time.

But it’s different now. With Yu Jingmo, who goes when he wants to and doesn’t go when he doesn’t want to, it forms a sharp contrast with Lin Qingchuan’s desire to rebel.

Yu Jingmo blinked, "Are you sure?"

【…】

Lin Qingchuan said "hmm" with an extremely cold expression.

"Then you have to tell your dad." Yu Jingmo certainly wouldn't persuade her.

Not to mention the mission, she doesn't have the position to do so, and doesn't want to worry so much. It's best to let it go!

Lin Qingchuan looked at the yellow square on TV for two seconds, then looked at Yu Jingmo who was sitting lazily and casually, and silently picked up the phone beside him.

During the waiting time, Lin Qingchuan's heated mind calmed down.

I hesitated and wanted to hang up the phone.

This was something he had never done before, and would his father be disappointed?

Thinking of this, Lin Qingchuan unconsciously wanted to put down the microphone in his hand.

But as soon as I moved, the other side picked up the call.

His whole body stiffened instantly.

Yu Jingmo glanced over as if realizing something, his eyebrows slightly raised.
