Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 1070 You must take good care of yourself!

He's not Miss Yuan, how could he possibly believe his girlfriend's nonsense? He's not even familiar with the performance, so wasn't the drive back smooth?

They're both experienced drivers; he didn't believe Liu Ruyan couldn't distinguish between the accelerator and the brake.

In the evening, the young couple leisurely ate dinner. It has to be said that Lin Mo's reputation as a prospective son-in-law was quite effective. Even though Ms. Cheng knew that her daughter had lied about something, she didn't call and swallowed the bitter pill.

However, while the two of them enjoyed their meal, the Liu family villa suffered a terrible fate. They didn't even have dinner that night, let alone enjoy themselves, and the housekeeper had an easy time.

The next morning at 9:30, it was gloomy outside the window and the wind was blowing.

"Sigh~ It's the rainy season now, and the rain is getting more frequent," Liu Ruyan sighed as she nestled on the sofa and looked out the window.

Hearing this, Lin Mo was taken aback: "Rain is great! Don't you like rain? Besides, you don't have to go to work today, how relaxing!"

Putting everything else aside, he really likes rain, and the more extreme the weather, the more excited he gets.

For example, he likes torrential rain, especially the kind of weather where dark clouds suddenly gather at midday, the clouds hang low, accompanied by strong winds and lightning flashing across the sky from time to time, and finally, with a whoosh, a downpour.

It feels like the world is about to end, but I instinctively know that this kind of weather won't affect me much, so I get excited.

Ideally, there should be a sudden, heavy downpour followed by a quick clearing of the sky. Avoid continuous heavy rain, as it can easily disrupt travel.

"I don't need to go to work, but it started raining last night and it's still going on. I have a feeling today is going to be tough too. I checked the weather forecast, and it looks like there will be a lot of rainy days this month!" Liu Ruyan said helplessly.

Lin Mo: "Isn't it good that there's more rain? If it hadn't rained a few days ago, we wouldn't have been able to plant these crops. Now that there's more rain, the crops will grow better. It would be really difficult if it didn't rain in June or July."

I wonder if it's raining in the South yet. After I graduate this year, let's find some time to go to the South. I love the misty, rainy Jiangnan region, especially during the plum rain season!

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him: "Forget it, if you really go, you'll be unhappy again."

I've been there before, sister. It's been raining for half a month straight, there's not even a sun. The house is damp and full of water droplets. If you're not careful, you won't even have any bitter tea leaves to wear because they just won't dry.

I recently heard that it will rain for 82 out of the next 90 days in Changsha. They've even forced the locals to put up a sun from Plants vs. Zombies on a big screen in the square. I've heard of people praying for rain before, but this is the first time I've heard of people praying for the sun.

"Perfect timing! By the time you graduate and go there, the sun will be high in the sky, you'll be dying of heat!"

Lin Mo:

Although his area isn't as far north as the Northeast, it's still considered northern. Plus, he's hardly ever traveled far from home, so he's naturally interested in the misty, rainy Jiangnan region of the South. But if it rains for three consecutive months, that would be a bit terrifying.

"Then forget it. Jiangnan isn't just one place. The South is so big, there are bound to be places where it doesn't rain or get hot. We can just go to them one by one."

"I was just hoping it wouldn't rain so frequently next week, otherwise it would be inconvenient for me to go out," Lin Mo said helplessly.

He can go on vacation anytime; if the weather is bad in one place, there are other places, so it's not a big deal. But next week he has to help restore power to the new businesses that Yuan and Liu's families have taken over, which is very inconvenient.

As for the information, Comrade Lao Liu's secretary sent over the industry information accepted by the two companies last night.

There weren't as many as he had imagined; it seemed they had been taken over by others. But whether a company is profitable or not has nothing to do with the number of businesses. The key profitable industries have already been taken over by two companies.

However, some factories need to replace equipment. After all, many pieces of equipment have been damaged after the continuous power outages and must be demolished and rebuilt, which is costly and time-consuming.

However, none of this concerns Lin Mo, since he doesn't understand these things and should just focus on doing his job well.

"Will you still be open next Wednesday?" Liu Ruyan asked.

Lin Mo: "Of course we'll open for business! Why not make money if we have it? Don't worry, I took care of things in the neighborhood the other day. After we reopen on Wednesday, I'll go out for a few days and be back in three days. We'll definitely be back by next week!"

It took him a whole week to do it himself back then, but now it only takes about four or five days. After all, some of the businesses aren't in the hands of either of us, so they're not our business and have nothing to do with us.

"Alright, you little money-grubber, nothing can stop you from making money!" Liu Ruyan laughed.

To this, Lin Mo shook his head and said, "My family has been farmers for generations. I haven't dared to spend a single penny of the money we earned. I'm terrified of poverty."

"Get lost. I haven't seen you skimp on spending money when it's necessary," Liu Ruyan said, rolling her eyes at him.

Lin Mo: "I was just using my strengths where they mattered!"

"For example, finding a pretty girl for a Sichuan girl to get a foot massage at the Qingshui Watai?" Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

Lin Mo: "This isn't even the blade!"

"Get lost! I think you're just asking for trouble!" Liu Ruyan spat.

Fortunately, she knew almost everything Lin Mo spent. As long as he didn't go to bars and clubs to find young models and indulge in debauchery, wasn't it normal to have some hobbies? Other women hoped their boyfriends wouldn't play games or go fishing, but she couldn't be happier for Lin Mo to have these hobbies.

How much money can you spend on video games? And you can stay home all day without worry. As for fishermen, they don't have many hobbies besides going to the market to buy a fish to show off, and even the country doesn't prohibit fishing in the Yangtze River.

The meaning is obvious: go ahead and fish, since you won't catch anything anyway. The bait used for groundbaiting can also help restore aquatic life and boost the fishing economy.

Otherwise, a bunch of old men getting together might cause some trouble. They should all go fishing. That's better; it feeds the fish, restores the aquatic ecosystem, and boosts the economy—a win-win situation.

You see, once men get hooked on fishing, they stop thinking about all those other messy things. They focus their energy on fishing, which is much better than messing around!

Just as the two were talking, there was a knock on the living room door.

"coming!"

Lin Mo got up and opened the door.

"Sister Yuan? It's raining, why did you come?"

"Nobody's here, so I had to stay here for a while!" Miss Yuan put her umbrella outside the door, then changed her shoes and jogged into the house.

The air conditioning was on full blast, so as soon as Miss Yuan came in, she took off her coat, ran to the refrigerator, and took out a bottle of soda.

"Nobody here? Where are the others?" Liu Ruyan asked curiously.

Miss Yuan: "They took people to a social event. I didn't go because it was raining, I woke up late, and I was too lazy to go out in the rain."

"Huh? We still have to go to a social event in the rain?" Lin Mo said in disbelief.

Although the rain outside is not heavy, it is close to moderate rain, similar to the localized rainfall summoned by Weathering With You. It doesn't make sense to hold a social gathering in this weather, does it?

"What can we do? So many people came for interviews yesterday, and the time was already set. We can't just change our minds at the last minute, can we?"

"Besides, it's not raining heavily, and the event organizers have indoor venues, so it won't cause any problems," Miss Yuan said, jumping onto the sofa.

Lin Mo thought about it for a moment and still felt something was wrong: "Wait, how many people are there? How did they get through?"

"There are quite a few people this time, thirty in total. The Sichuan girl chartered a bus specifically for their transportation, and it only took one trip. Don't worry."

"Hey, I've found you a garage. It's right at the entrance of the complex, above-ground, right next to your garage," Miss Yuan tossed over an electric key.

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan grabbed the key and said with a warm smile, "Oh, it has to be Yuanyuan, she's really capable. Little brother, bring out the tea, the best tea, the kind we stole from my dad yesterday!"

Miss Yuan:

Lin Mo:

What a blatant frame-up! Did they really steal it? It was clearly Liu Ruyan who committed the crime alone; he's innocent!

But Miss Yuan didn't care. She just looked at the two of them with disdain, as if they were scum.

"Ahem. Sister Yuan, Silver Wing, but without you here, will Chuanzi and the others get into trouble?" Lin Mo asked with some concern.

Miss Yuan rolled her eyes at him and said, "If they get into trouble without me around, then they're really useless."

Meanwhile, in an indoor meeting room at the Jiangning Public Security Bureau, a social event was being held.

"Jiang Jiang, I heard that this event was organized by your cousin and Li Shiya?"

At this moment, at the edge of the venue, a man was chatting with Jiang Feng. Both of them were wearing uniforms, but they were obviously married and didn't need to attend this social event.

"My cousin just joined in the fun, it was Li Shiya who did the work," Jiang Feng said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the man laughed and said, "How about it? Are you envious? If you weren't married, you would have been part of this social event too!"

"Come on, my wife is great. I don't want to think about all that nonsense right now. Dating is more interesting to watch others date! By the way, how did you manage to win over your wife?" Jiang Feng asked curiously.

Hearing this, the man was taken aback, then puffed out his chest: "Of course, it's all about flattery and showing all sorts of care. My wife fell for him immediately!"

Hearing this, Jiang Feng looked his colleague up and down: "You? You care? What makes you think you can do that?"

"What? You look down on me? I was so thoughtful back then. I told her every day to take good care of herself. I put her breakfast at the breakfast shop so she could remember to buy it. I put her salary at the company so she could work for a month. I told her to take her medicine if she got sick, and I put the medicine at the pharmacy. I also transferred 20,000 yuan to her and put it in WeBank's microloan service. She turned her head and blinked and it was all gone."

My wife was instantly smitten when she saw how thoughtful I was!

Jiang Feng: ? ? ?
