You should know, a fake identity is very expensive!
Zhang Li was in charge of driving, and Lin Mo sat in the passenger seat. They didn’t rush home but instead went to a hair salon to spruce themselves up and even bought a set of well-fitting new clothes.
After spending so many days on the island looking disheveled, going back home like that would only have made his family worry that he suffered hardships outside.
After grooming himself, Lin Mo finally called his dad.
Perhaps because he was busy, the call went unanswered.
Lin Mo then called his wife, but it was Xiaoxiao who answered the phone.
She exclaimed excitedly, “Daddy, it’s Mumu! Did you go to the program group to get your reward?”
Lin Mo replied with a smile, “Yes, of course I got it. Have mom send me the location of our new home, and I’ll be there very soon.”
A few days ago, he had talked with Zhang Li on the beach, and his father-in-law had already told him that the new house was ready. However, it wasn’t a villa but a top-floor apartment in a residential complex.
Lin Mo thought it wasn’t bad either.
Compared to a villa that was drafty on all sides, a villa that was easy to peek into, a top-floor apartment actually offered a bit more privacy.
Hearing from Lin Mo, Li Jinwen quickly took over the phone and sent the address to Lin Mo, reminding him, “Husband, have you eaten? I’ll go make something for you.”
Listening to his wife and daughter’s voices, Lin Mo, who hadn’t rested well all night, felt his energy largely restored and said with a smile, “Don’t bother, Xing Jiang and I already ate outside. We’ll be home soon.”
These past few days, Li Jinwen had been worrying and frightened. Now that Lin Mo was safely returning, she felt somewhat excited. “Okay, then take your time on the road, don’t rush, your daughter and I are waiting for you to come back!”
After hanging up, Lin Mo set the navigation and continued to close his eyes to rest.
Before long, the sedan entered a high-end residential complex on the outskirts of Northern Sea City. As it was designed to separate vehicles and pedestrians, they drove directly into the underground garage and parked beneath Building 9..
Both got out of the car and into the elevator, ascending slowly.
Thinking that they would soon see the people they most wanted to see, Zhang Li and Lin Mo were both spirited, showing no signs of fatigue on their faces.
Soon,
the elevator stopped at the top floor, and the elevator doors slowly opened.
“I don’t look haggard, do I?”
“Not at all, you look full of energy! Brother, how about me?”
“You look energetic too. Let’s go!”
“Yeah!”
With smiles on their faces, they walked to the door of apartment 2001, and Lin Mo rang the doorbell.
Ding dong.
“Coming….”
The door opened, and Li Jinwen stood there with a beaming smile, as if she had been waiting for a long time, and said with a look of happiness, “You’re back.”
Lin Xiaoxiao also squeezed to the side of the door, bouncing and saying, “Daddy, hug, Daddy, I missed you so much…”
Looking further inside, the father-in-law, mother-in-law, and his own parents were all smiling at him.
Just this simple scene filled Lin Mo’s heart with endless strength, as if the previous fatigue had completely disappeared.
“Alright, let daddy give you a hug and see how much you’ve gained recently.”
Lin Mo picked up his daughter, then couldn’t help but kiss his wife on the cheek before stepping into the living room. He looked around the spacious living room and the modern and luxurious decor, along with all kinds of smart home appliances, and couldn’t help nodding his head in admiration, “Dad, you have quite good taste, much better than the villas I picked out before!”
At that moment, Lin Siyu, who had been sitting on the sofa watching TV, stared at Lin Mo for a few seconds before slowly standing up. Her previously dull eyes became much clearer, and in a light, slightly hoarse voice she uttered, “…Brother.”
