Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Chapter 275: 133, the legendary treasure of Qianye Island is actually… _2

Xu Qin also asked with concern, “I saw the light in the study on when I went to sleep last night, you didn’t stay up all night, did you?”

Pity the heart of a parent.

No matter how hard it was for themselves, seeing their children suffer even the slightest was unbearable.

“How could I? I did sleep, and for quite a while too. I must have forgotten to turn off the light in the study.” Lin Mo ladled the cooked dish from the wok into a plate, smiling as he said, “I might need to go out for a few days soon, and I’m worried you might forget about me, so I’m showing off my skills now.”

Go out?

Lin Changshui furrowed his brows and asked, “Have you run into some trouble? Do you need Dad to go with you?”

“I haven’t encountered any problems. It’s just that I’ve set my eyes on a money-making project that might keep me busy for a few days.” After finishing, Lin Mo added with a smile, “However, there is a piece of good news that I’ll share during dinner.”

“You kid, now you’ve learned to keep people in suspense.” Xu Qin inquired, “Tell your mom first, what’s the good news?”

“If I tell you now, I’ll just have to repeat it later, so I might as well say it when we’re all together.” Lin Mo started stir-frying another plate of green vegetables, then turned back and said, “Mom, could you see how the congee is coming along? I didn’t add shrimp, just plain rice congee.”

“Seafood is good, but we can’t eat too much of it.”

Seeing that Lin Mo refused to say more and had quickly changed the subject, Xu Qin and Lin Changshui exchanged a glance, not wanting to press further, and began to help with the preparations.

By the time breakfast was ready, the family started waking up one after another. After washing up, they gathered in the dining room and were a little surprised to see Lin Mo cooking.

“Let’s eat first, and I’ll tell everyone the good news after the meal!”

Lin Mo urged the family to eat breakfast. Once the meal was over, without any prompting from Lin Mo, Li Jinwen very considerately took Lin Xiaoxiao upstairs.

Xu Qin asked, “Son, what exactly is the good news? Can you tell us now?”

“Right, I’ve been guessing for half a day now.” Lin Changshui was somewhat impatient.

The in-laws’ eyes were also filled with curiosity.

What could the good news be?

It had been a long time since the family had received any good news.

Now that everyone was present, Lin Mo didn’t keep them in suspense any longer and said with a smile, “The first piece of good news is that I received reliable information that Chen Shanhe, that old bastard, seems to have been caught by someone and is now in a bit of a predicament.”

Hmm?

With Lin Mo bringing this up, it dawned on everyone that they indeed hadn’t seen any news about their family on Douyin’s short videos in the past couple of days.

It was completely different from a few days ago.

A few days back, every time they went on Douyin and scrolled through a few videos, they would come across news about themselves.

Sometimes the news would even trend, obviously a deliberately created buzz.

“Good, good! I thought, how could no one take care of him?”

“Indeed, it’s good news!”

“Does this mean we can go back home now?”

“That would be great, if that old geezer got run over by a car, smashed to a pulp, it would be even better!”

“Retribution! It’s not that retribution doesn’t come, it’s just not the time yet!!”

Hearing the negative news about Chen Shanhe made everyone feel elated.

Lin Mo shook his head with a tinge of regret in his voice, “Going back is definitely not possible. The reason I’m telling you this is to let you all know that even though Chen Shanhe is powerful and influential, he too has people and things he fears.”

“At the same time, it’s to reassure everyone that as long as we don’t make mistakes and maintain our disguises, we shouldn’t run into major problems.”

“Also, there’s another piece of good news.”

More good news?

The family’s interest was piqued once again.

Lin Mo said with a smile, “The good news is that I found a particularly lucrative opportunity on Qianye Island. I plan to head over for a few days, and if I can get this sorted out, our family will truly achieve financial freedom. Then, even if we want to move abroad, we can do so freely!”

Lin Mo wasn’t explicit about what the opportunity was.

Telling his family that he was going to hunt for treasure underwater would undoubtedly seem bizarre and worrisome to them.

As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, his father-in-law hastily said, “Do you need me to come with you? An extra person might provide more help.”

“That’s right, the in-law is making sense,” Lin Changshui also spoke up, “Son, I’ve recovered quite a bit now, and I can handle work too. Why don’t you take Dad along?”

While Zhao Huixian and Xu Qin also wanted to help, they refrained from saying they would join, as their current priorities were to take care of Li Jinwen and Lin Xiaoxiao.

A pregnant woman and a child, both required attention.

Following Li Jinshan and Lin Changshui’s lead, Zhang Li also chimed in, “Bro, the uncles are right, let us go with you. That way, everyone can be at ease, and we can be of help.”

Seeing the family’s eagerness to volunteer, Lin Mo showed no surprise.

This was a scenario he had anticipated.

After pretending to consider it, he said, “Uncles, you don’t need to come with me; we don’t need too many people for this, and having too many could actually be inconvenient.”

“Xing Jiang, you come with me.”

After all, the treasure area given by the system was huge, and having an extra person would increase the chances of success.

As for his father and father-in-law, they were too old for this, not suitable for soaking in the chilly seawater continuously. If there were any tasks later that required manpower, they could be enlisted for help.

Without hesitation, Zhang Li nodded decisively: “No problem, bro, I’ll go with you.”

Lin Mo nodded in response, then seeing his hesitant father and father-in-law, added with a smile, “Uncles, don’t be downcast; you have your own tasks to accomplish.”
