It's already 2026, how can we still talk about having many children and having many blessings?

At this moment, Chen Mo is on the plane.

He was unaware that the Jinming Law Firm was launching an investigation against him.

The seven numbers he left for Gu Qingyao, along with the phrase "smashed," are causing an earthquake in Ningcheng's cultural and museum circles.

The plane landed at Kunming Airport (hereinafter referred to as Kunming Airport) at 8 pm.

Chen Mo turned off airplane mode on his phone, and a row of missed calls immediately popped up on the screen.

He called back immediately.

"Chen Mo, have you gotten off the plane?"

"Yes, Mr. Gu, what's the urgent matter?"

"I originally planned to host a top-tier family banquet for you, but I found out you boarded the plane by asking Zhao Siman through Luo Li."

Gu Qingyao's words lacked the anxiety she had before; perhaps it was an act.

"Chen Mo, I did as you said. The bottle was smashed that day, and there was indeed a QR code underneath."

"All the collections handled by Zhao Qiming's team are being investigated one by one. So far, more than seven items have been found to be problematic, with a total value exceeding one billion yuan."

After listening, Chen Mo felt a deep respect for Gu Qingyao.

This girl is impressive, decisive, and has great drive; no wonder she became a chairperson at the age of twenty-seven.

She attacked him the moment he left.

But he only hummed in response.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Chen, I would like to hire you as the chief appraiser for Shengheng Culture. Name your terms."

Chen Mo frowned.

"Let's talk about it when I get back."

"No, I want to finalize it tomorrow. My flight is at 1 a.m. Wait for me in Kunming. We'll go to the auction together. You probably don't have an admission ticket, right? Come in with me."

"Sorry, I have something urgent to attend to tonight and won't be staying in Chuncheng. You don't need to rush over. Bye."

He hung up the phone.

Just kidding.

He came here this time to make a fortune by gambling on stones in a low-key manner.

With a stunning beauty like Gu Qingyao by his side, how could he possibly keep a low profile?

She must be quite famous in the industry, and those suitors from prestigious families, like Zhao Mingyuan, will definitely cause her trouble.

He didn't want to be a pretentious show-off.

He's not the kind of person who's so easily swayed by the sight of a rich and beautiful woman that he can't resist her charms.

He wants to make a fortune quietly and find his child and the child's mother.

After all, which woman who can become the mother of his child doesn't have an overall score of over 80?

As for the chief appraiser, once he agrees, even a fool would know who the mastermind behind the attacks on Zhao Qiming's team is.

That's a huge interest group.

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents; he didn't want to become a target.

Making a fortune quietly is the best approach.

Of course, if Zhao Mingyuan guesses it's him, he can only face it and then wipe them out completely.

……

At this moment, at the villa on Cuihu Road.

Gu Qingyao stared at the phone that had been hung up, her face full of anger.

This guy actually hung up on her?

Is he not interested in Shengheng's chief appraiser at all?

They made him state his terms.

She frowned, stood up and walked around for a while, when suddenly she remembered what Chen Mo had said in the private restaurant.

"Don't say it was me who said it; I don't want to offend anyone."

She was somewhat taken aback.

She knew she was being too hasty.

Chen Mo didn't expose the fakes in front of Zhao Mingyuan, clearly not wanting to offend him.

If he agrees to become the chief appraiser, even a fool would know that he is the mastermind behind her, and he will also come into Zhou Yue's sights at Chen's Culture.

"No, we can't make him the chief appraiser; instead, he should be... our most important secret partner."

"But if I want someone as capable as him to cooperate willingly and help me, besides money, the safest way is... to win him over!"

She was certain that Chen Mo's abilities surpassed those of the veteran experts, so she was determined to win.

Although Chen Mo told her not to rush over, she still packed her things and went out alone an hour later.

"Qingyao, I feel it's dangerous for you to go alone. You should bring a few more bodyguards."

"It's okay, sister. The people who are watching me know that I'm going to Ruili with the company team tomorrow. Only my assistant Liu Xi knows that I'm leaving tonight. Besides, it's too late to make arrangements now."

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"urgent!"

After she went out, she was unaware that several pairs of eyes were watching her.

Inside, in a luxury car, a young man picked up his phone. "Ha, Liu Xi's information is true. She really did go out alone. This is God helping us."

"Immediately have the people in Ruili prepare to sell her to the industrial park. Also, have someone leak information to Zhao Qiming and his group to shut him up."

……

Chen Mo and Yu Linglong waited for more than an hour in the waiting hall of Kunming Airport before boarding a flight from Kunming to Ruili.

During the more than one-hour flight, Yu Linglong and Chen Mo sat together and, unusually, became quite talkative.

She said she had been to Ruili many times and knew it very well.

"Linglong, what if she gets knocked unconscious on the street and then gets her kidneys ripped off?"

"No, it's actually quite safe over there. It's a legitimate tourist city. As long as you don't cross the border without permission, it'll be fine."

"That's good. Since you're so familiar with it, you can arrange the rest of the trip."

"Okay, besides work, I'll take you to try the local specialties."

Yu Linglong looked at Chen Mo, feeling a little excited.

As the saying goes, which young girl doesn't dream of love?

Chen Mo is handsome, rich, and capable; who wouldn't like him?

It will be great to be able to travel with him next.

Tonight, I'll take him to my dad's friend's little bar to drink Dai-style homemade rice wine.

In case of drinking...

【Oh dear, Yu Linglong, are you in heat? We've only known each other for a short time, you don't even know if he has a wife or girlfriend, and you're already thinking about this…】

Yu Linglong glanced at Chen Mo, then immediately turned her head to look out the window, her face flushed.

Chen Mo saw through Yu Linglong's thoughts.

Tsk tsk, this usually quiet and innocent girl actually wants to sleep with him?

However, he is confident in his current appearance and demeanor.

After all, it's a process of cleansing the marrow and tendons, the pinnacle of human achievement.

It would be strange if it didn't attract attention.

As the host of the "Many Children, Many Blessings" system, he accepts all comers, neither taking the initiative nor refusing... to have children.

Looking closely, this girl is actually very pretty, with a well-proportioned figure and her curves in all the right places.

He just doesn't pay much attention to his clothes, only likes to wear sportswear, and has short hair.

She would look absolutely gorgeous if she dressed up.

"System, Yu Linglong, what's your score?"

[Ding dong, scanning... Overall score 85... Suitable for breeding excellent offspring...]

……

It was already past ten o'clock when I got off the plane.

The airport in this border town is not large, and a row of taxis is parked at the exit.

Yu Linglong, familiar with the area, negotiated a price with the driver, and the two got into the car, heading straight for the Jiegao Border Trade Zone.

The car stopped in front of the guesthouse we had booked.

The landlady was a warm-hearted Dai woman who helped them check in.

After settling my luggage and taking a shower, it was almost midnight.

Chen Mo knocked on Yu Linglong's door, and she opened it after a short while. Yu Linglong had changed into a clean tracksuit, and her hair was a little wet, so she had obviously just taken a shower. She was full of youthful energy.

"Linglong, I'm hungry. Let's go out and find some food."

"OK."

Yu Linglong tidied herself up, went outside, and led him into a small alley. After walking for about ten minutes, they stopped in front of a barbecue restaurant.

"This is a unique Dai-style barbecue from Ruili." Yu Linglong sat down and started ordering, "Grilled pork belly, grilled pork skin, grilled tilapia, grilled chicken feet tendons, and this lemongrass grilled tofu."

"They use fresh lemongrass, it smells so good. I haven't had it in a long time, I really miss it."

"Oh, young lady, you know your stuff. Come, please have a seat," the boss immediately invited.

The dishes were served quickly.

Chen Mo picked up a piece of grilled pork belly, dipped it in the sauce on the table, and tasted the sour, spicy, and savory flavor.

"It's really good. How did you make this dipping sauce?"

"Lemon juice, bird's eye chili, houttuynia cordata, chopped lemongrass, and Dai-style homemade pickling paste."

Yu Linglong chewed on the roasted pork skin, making a crunching sound as she bit.

"The pickled vegetable paste here is homemade and not for sale. My dad used to come here to eat every time he came to the city."

After she finished speaking, she continued to eat with her head down.

Chen Mo glanced at her.

This girl is usually quiet, but she opened up in Ruili and acted like a little tour guide.

After finishing the barbecue, Yu Linglong hesitated for a moment.

"Brother Mo, it's still early. The nightlife here is just starting. How about I take you to my friend's unique bar to watch the Dai girls dance?"

"OK."

Chen Mo is really looking forward to tonight's show.
