"Haha, I know, stop nagging."

Lin Mo hung up the phone and waited patiently for Pang Hu and Li Qi.

Fat Tiger and Li Qi soon came into Lin Mo's view.

Both of them were still wearing elementary school uniforms, but Lin Mo seemed to take it for granted. He walked up to them and put his hand on their shoulders.

"After we finish eating, let's go to the internet cafe. It's on me."

"Wow, Dog Bro, you've struck it rich?"

Li Qi asked in a childish voice.

Lin Mo chuckled: "My dad gave me pocket money."

"How many?"

Li Qi and Pang Hu both cast envious glances at him.

Lin Mo held up two fingers, and Li Qi immediately exclaimed, "20 yuan!"

Lin Mo glanced at him in surprise, and he blushed: "Don't be fooled by my dad's wealth. He doesn't give me much pocket money, and his company seems to be facing a financial crisis recently. We're really strapped for cash at home right now."

"What financial crisis?"

Fat Tiger asked curiously.

"Oh, what else could it be? Probably bankruptcy. My mom said it's good that it's bankrupt, so my dad won't be so busy with company business all day and never come home. He doesn't even want this family anymore."

"Is your mother still alive?"

Lin Mo asked in surprise.

Li Qi rolled his eyes at him: "What do you mean my mom is still alive? My mom is fine."

"Let's go, let's go up quickly, don't keep Auntie waiting."

Fat Tiger chuckled and handed Lin Mo a basket of eggs, saying, "My mom insisted I bring them, saying I can't come to your house empty-handed."

Thanks.

Lin Mo accepted the eggs without hesitation.

Li Qi scratched his head, feeling that it wasn't right to leave empty-handed, so he picked a few wildflowers from the nearby flower bed and handed them to Lin Mo: "This is a gift."

Lin Mo broke out in a sweat. "Thank you so much."

The three of them went upstairs together. Kids are so healthy; they climbed eight floors in one go without even breaking a sweat.

"Auntie, we're here," Fat Tiger greeted politely.

"Xuanxuan, look who's come to see you." Li Qi retorted, and then Lin Mo punched him.

The three of them went to the living room. Lin Xuan picked up Xueqiu and smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons: "When we go out to play later, can you take me with you?"

"No, what kind of image would it be for a boy to go out with a girl?"

Lin Mo refused outright, mainly because she didn't want her younger sister to share her allowance.

Li Qi and Pang Hu nodded in agreement: "Girls will only slow down our sword-drawing speed."

"Wow--"

Lin Xuan burst into tears, and tears streamed down her face. Lin Mo and Li Qi immediately covered her mouth, very nervous, afraid that their mother in the kitchen would hear them.

"I'll take you there, I'll take you there."

Lin Mo sighed helplessly, and Lin Xuan finally stopped crying.

Mom opened the kitchen door and brought out plates of food.

Steamed sea bass, braised pork, twice-cooked pork, cucumber salad, meatball and tofu soup, as well as garlic-flavored greens and shredded potatoes with meat.

The table was laden with dishes, and the children's mouths started watering.

Mom served herself a bowl of rice, the white rice already 10cm higher than the porcelain bowl.

"They're all growing, so eat more."

"Mom said gently."

Lin Mo was the first to pick up his chopsticks, and Li Qi and Pang Hu couldn't wait to start eating as well.

Lin Mo thought her mother's cooking was delicious. She ate three bowls of rice in one go before putting down her chopsticks and letting out a satisfied burp.

Li Qi only ate one bowl of rice, while Pang Hu ate eight bowls.

Lin Xuan only ate half a bowl of rice before starting to eat snacks; she just doesn't like to eat a proper meal.

Her mother spoiled her and never scolded her; she would buy her whatever snacks she wanted.

Lin Mo always felt that her mother was spoiling Lin Xuan, especially her teeth, which would definitely cause cavities in the future.

Nevertheless, Lin Mo didn't say anything, since those were adult matters, and he should think about his games and homework.

"Auntie, we're full."

Fat Tiger patted his round belly and said.

Mom smiled gently again: "Go for a walk after you've eaten, but don't stay out too late."

She seemed to notice that several people were absentmindedly looking out the window, and patted Lin Mo's head, "Go on."

Lin Mo immediately sat up and ran outside with Li Qi and the others.

Lin Xuan hugged the snowball to her mother's arms and followed her brother with her short legs.

As soon as the four children left the residential area, they went into a nearby internet cafe.

The internet cafe was bustling with people of all ages. The owner was very familiar with the kids in the area, and he turned a blind eye as long as no one came to check.

"Let's play together!"

"I want to play Contra."

Fat Tiger muttered, only to be met with disdain from Li Qi: "That's an old man's game. We all play King of Glory now."

"Okay, let's play King of Glory then."

Fat Tiger sighed, reluctantly.

Lin Xuan looked at her brother excitedly: "I want to get on the plane too."

"Forget about you, just sit next to me and watch me have my fun. You don't have an ID card, so I can't open it."

"How come my brother has it?"

"I used my dad's ID card."

Lin Mo said with a smile, while Lin Xuan looked aggrieved and could only pull up a small stool and sit next to Lin Mo.

"Brother, brother, can you let me play a round?"

"No, you're too bad, you'll wipe us out."

"You stingy brother, where did you get the money to go online?"

Lin Xuan looked at Lin Mo with suspicion.

Lin Moluo said, "Then I'll let you have a turn."

Lin Xuan immediately smiled, revealing two cute little tiger teeth.

Li Qi and Fatty Tiger glared at Lin Mo, looking at him with disappointment and disappointment.

As expected, this wave resulted in a total wipeout.

Several hours later, as darkness fell, Lin Mo bid farewell to Li Qi and Pang Hu, and took Lin Xuan home.

By then, Dad had returned home, lying drunk on the sofa.

My mother sat to the side, scolding me: "I've told you to drink less, why don't you ever listen?"

Dad, his face flushed, hiccuped: "I had to entertain guests. I didn't want to drink so much, but my boss insisted on making me drink, saying he was going to promote me to manager."

Will we get a raise?

The mother asked the question that the whole family cared about most.

"Of course, it will increase by 1000 yuan."

"Dad said with a chuckle, then lay down on the sofa like an invertebrate."

Lin Mo and Lin Xuan ran to their father's side and reached out their hands for pocket money.

How can you not give me pocket money when I get a raise?

Chapter 195 Breaking the Calm

Lin Mo only withdrew his hand after his father glanced at him sideways, but Lin Xuan persisted.

"The raise will be next month, I'll give it to you next month."

The father lovingly picked up Lin Xuan, kissed her, and then fell asleep.

Mom sighed helplessly, "You two should go take a shower and go to bed."

Lin Mo and Lin Xuan nodded, ran into the bedroom, picked up their pajamas, and entered the bathroom in order of size from smallest to largest.

While Lin Xuan was taking a shower in the bathroom, Lin Mo turned around and looked at his father lying on the sofa and his mother taking care of him, and once again showed a happy smile.

He thought to himself, "If only life could be like this forever."

He reached out and wiped the inexplicable water stains from his face, then looked up at the ceiling: "Is it leaking?"

When Lin Xuan came out of the bathroom, she had already washed herself and smelled wonderful, and changed into her pajamas.

"Brother, the water is a bit cold, you'll have to wait a little longer."

Lin Xuan reminded him, but Lin Mo shook his head: "Boys can take cold showers too."

"Brother, why are you crying?"

Lin Xuan looked at Lin Mo curiously.

Lin Mo looked at Lin Xuan with a puzzled expression, then touched the corner of his eye, which was wet.
