Chapter 800 - 798: Knowing How to Enjoy Life

"That slick?"

Mo Jingchun was just saying it casually; he didn’t expect Candy to finish all her homework in one go.

Handing over the homework with both hands, Candy raised her brows and said:

"Of course. Tomorrow I’m going to see pink piggies with my brother."

Hearing that, Mo Jingchun’s head was full of question marks. Pink piggies? What the heck.

"What are pink piggies?"

Candy looked at her brother in surprise and said, "They’re piggies, obviously. We eat piggie meat every day."

"Those are black-haired pigs, they’re not pink."

"How could they not be?"

Mo Jingchun shook his head and burst out laughing, "You’ll see whether they are or not when you go tomorrow."

...

In the moonlight, Candy drifted off to sleep, dreaming of seeing pink piggies the next day.

In her sleep, drool trickled from the corner of Candy’s mouth.

With that blissful expression on her face, the little one had probably already started eating delicious pink piggy in her dreams.

No one knew whether that poor little piggy was having a nightmare tonight.

Downstairs, Mo Jingchun twisted his old waist and said to Zhou Yaling, who was still engrossed in her drama:

"You should sleep early too. You’ve got nothing to do on weekends anyway, and no boyfriend, so just come out with us tomorrow. I heard Old Xu say that place is not only pushing agriculture and livestock hard, they’re also developing tourism."

"Outdoor barbecue, ever tried it? Experience original, additive-free grilled meat."

"Okay, once I finish this episode, I’ll go to bed."

"Huh, I just noticed you’ve got less hair. Are you losing your hair?"

"Yeah." Zhou Yaling raised her head to look at her big brother, puzzled. It’s just hair loss; a bunch of hair falls out every time she washes it, what’s the big deal.

"Yeah? You’re about to go bald and you’re still staying up late. Staying up late is the worst for your body. If you don’t change, you’ll have a shiny bald head in less than two years."

Pressing his lips into a smile, Mo Jingchun squinted his eyes and said:

"You don’t want to end up like those bald big shots in my lab, do you?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yaling imagined herself with a Bright Summit on top and shivered.

That look... was way too scary. She hadn’t even dated anyone yet.

Zhou Yaling instantly jumped up and turned off the TV.

"Sleep, sleep. Early to bed, early to rise, keeps you healthy."

With Mo Jingchun smiling faintly, Zhou Yaling didn’t even wait for the elevator; she ran up the stairs straight to bed.

Turns out, as long as you look at things from a girl’s perspective, girls will be way more proactive about anything.

In that moment, Mo Jingchun suddenly saw the light and instantly understood why it was so easy to make money off women.

All those businesses, without exception, were flying the banner of "it’s for women’s own good."

As the lights in the indoor corridor switched off automatically, the whole villa became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

In the villa next door, aside from the staff on duty, everyone sat together discussing the security arrangements for the trip the next day.

Every time they went out, with Zero tagging along, safety was greatly improved, but they didn’t dare let their guard down. For every outing they’d draft all kinds of contingency plans to deal with any possible emergencies.

It wasn’t until the early hours that everyone finally went to sleep.

At dawn, in a daze, Candy felt something furry moving against her face.

A bit itchy, she raised her hand to scratch her face.

The next second, Candy opened her eyes and let out a soft, spoiled little "mm," then pushed Bun away with one hand.

"Bun, your fur’s tickling me."

"Huh? Why is my pillow wet?"

"Bun, be honest—did you pee the bed?"

Bun, sitting on the edge of the bed, looked at his little owner with a completely innocent face.

At this point, Zero, who had been sitting there all night, really couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up:

"Candy, that’s the drool you drooled last night."

Candy froze on the spot. She drooled last night.

"Tss~"

"Zero, you have to keep this a secret for me!"

Half an hour later, after his shower and a change of clothes, Mo Jingchun went downstairs to make breakfast. Before he even reached the living room, he heard noises from the kitchen.

He walked over and, whoa, there was Zhou Yaling with two guardians at her side, quietly watching her make breakfast.

"Morning, brother."

"Morning."

"You’re up pretty early."

Candy grinned and said, "Teacher says the early bird gets the worm."

"Did your teacher ever say that dumb birds should take off first?"

"Nope." Candy scratched her head, utterly confused. A dumb bird would know to fly first?

Most likely it would just stand there spacing out.

Just then, Mo Jingchun received an announcement in the class parent group.

Reminded by Zero, he pulled his phone from his pocket, puzzled.

Could there be a make-up class today? Otherwise why would Zero remind him there was a new announcement in the parent group?

After reading it, Mo Jingchun frowned.

Putting his phone back in his pocket without a word, he stayed silent for a moment, then asked:

"Candy, how’s your relationship with your classmate He Xiaofei?"

"He Xiaofei? Brother, you know He Xiaofei too? I think she took a leave; she hasn’t come to school since last week."

Mo Jingchun raised a brow and asked again, "I’m asking if you two get along."

Candy didn’t understand why her brother suddenly got so serious. A bit at a loss, she answered honestly:

"Pretty good. Everyone plays together usually. He Xiaofei is really gentle; she never bullies other classmates."

Mo Jingchun nodded. "Got it."

With that, he left the kitchen, leaving Candy and Zhou Yaling both baffled.

Only Zero knew why.

In the yard, Mo Jingchun dialed Xia Xiaomin’s number.

Still in dreamland, Xia Xiaomin was startled awake by the ringtone.

Seeing that it was her boss calling, she hurried to answer.

When the boss calls outside normal work hours, it’s usually not for something trivial.

"Boss, what are your orders?"

Casually plucking a camellia leaf, Mo Jingchun said, "Contact Candy’s homeroom teacher and, in Candy’s name, donate 100,000 yuan to He Xiaofei."

"Okay, boss."

After the call ended, Xia Xiaomin immediately asked Zero for the details and He Xiaofei’s file.

After reading through the file, Xia Xiaomin let out a long sigh and stayed dazed for a good while.

"Sigh, another unfortunate kid."

A hereditary family disease—there was no doubt He Xiaofei’s parents had cut back on necessary checkups during pregnancy to save money.

......

"Let’s go!"

Handing Bun and Little Grey over to her uncle, Candy grabbed Zero and dashed into the car.

After saying bye to her uncle, Candy kept urging Xiaofeixia to start the car.

Xiaofeixia was helpless. The cars in front of the convoy hadn’t moved yet; how was he supposed to go?

For safety reasons, his car had to stay in the middle of the convoy at all times.

"Woof woof woof~"

Watching his owner ditch him again to go have fun, Little Grey was so anxious he spun in circles on the spot.

They never took him along whenever they went out to play.

Bun, on the other hand, was lying in the sun, completely unbothered.

Going out to play was nothing compared to sleeping.

The sunlight on his body was just the right warmth.

That dumb dog just didn’t know how to enjoy life.
