Chapter 63: 63. Mother-in-law is coming? _1
The next day, Ren He smoothly completed the 5000m run along with the push-up task, which tired him out quite a bit, but starting from today, he also considered himself the owner of a permanent skill… Etic Water!
This thing doesn’t sound cool at all, does it?!
My transmigration welco package must have been a freebie with a phone recharge, while everyone else is having a blast, here I am stuck with such a headache-inducing Divine Punishnt System!
But I guess it’s better than nothing, huh? This could count as an odd trick after all. I just wonder if people will start to notice sothing if there are too many vomiting around ?
No matter, it’s not like I’m going to be using it that frequently. As long as I don’t encounter too many people like Li Luobo and Liu Yinghai, harmony will prevail in society!
The winter break ca, and still, there was only
at ho. Sir Ren and Mrs. Ren were so busy that they weren’t even aware that I had winter break to begin with, or they just didn’t know when it was supposed to start, leaving
free as a bird.
As long as I complete one more task tomorrow, I’ll be ready to set off!
However, at this mont, Xu Nuo unexpectedly called , “Ren He, is anyone at your place? I need help!”
“What’s going on, don’t tell
your dad called Li Luobo?” Ren He said in surprise. Li Luobo had gone mad, so how could he even be reporting grades to parents?
“It’s hard to explain. It’s not about the grades. My dad suddenly found out from my cousin that I’ve been helping my cousin work secretly. Then, for so reason, he got furious and said that I don’t study, only doing useless things all the ti, and that I’ve neglected my studies because of this!” Xu Nuo’s voice was filled with frustration.
“How am I supposed to help you with that?” Ren He was vexed, too. Who can stop a man from spanking his own son? Even the police generally don’t bother with these kinds of matters. He consoled sympathetically, “It’s okay, just endure a beating and you’ll be fine… ”
“The key point is my dad smashed my computer, now what am I going to do!”
Ah… that’s a small matter. Ren He thought for a mont and said, “It’s fine, you can borrow my computer for now.”
Frankly, his plan was to buy Xu Nuo a new laptop outright. Money didn’t an much to him in this life; earning it to fulfill his own dreams, and incidentally helping a friend achieve theirs, was no big deal.
He had originally planned to go to the rooftop with Yang Xi to practice singing that afternoon, but after Xu Nuo’s incident, Ren He promptly dragged Yang Xi to the computer mall to buy a laptop. With over two million in his account, it was only satisfying for him to spend it in a nouveau riche manner…
A nouveau riche has to look the part!
He bought Xu Nuo the best laptop available in stock in the small city of Luo City, and he replaced his own as well. He wanted to gift one to Yang Xi, but she refused to accept it no matter what.
Yang Xi asked curiously, “Where did you get so much money from?”
“Your cousin bought three of my songs, rember? Plus, there’s the manuscript fee from Kunlun,” Ren He didn’t hide it, though he also didn’t reveal his actual earning potential from writing novels.
“You really look like a nouveau riche now,” Yang Xi said, laughing at Ren He.
“Where have we even started? If I really beco a nouveau riche, then I’ll just want the most expensive, not the most suitable. I’ll casually buy a few houses to wait for appreciation, live in one, and hoard the rest…” Ren He said, chuckling.
“Alright, alright,” Yang Xi pushed him and started walking towards the exit of the computer mall. “You and Xu Nuo are really close, huh? You can even give him such an expensive gift.”
“It’s called a long-term investnt. You guys think that Little Fatty is dumb, but I see him as a treasure. Many future plans might fall onto his shoulders,” Ren He explained. “Our Chinese education doesn’t tailor to individual needs at all. That kid can already take on jobs by self-learning. If soone were to guide him with dedication, who knows what he could achieve.”
Since the two of them hazily confird their relationship last night, Yang Xi realized that Ren He was genuinely poor, but this was her first love. She thought the boy in front of her was wonderful in every way.
A miraculous boy.
Her best friend Song Ci called her last night to discuss the plot of Kunlun. Whenever the other person praised the book, Yang Xi would agree: Yep, the author of this book must be a genius.
As she talked, she began to laugh first, seemingly influenced by Ren He to also beco a bit shaless. However, this feeling was like the sweetest fruit tasted while imrsed in a beautiful dream of youth.
Everyone falls in love, sooner or later. Yang Xi was thankful that at the age of 16, she could foresee Ren He. Many years later, when she suddenly recalled the ti when she was 16, she felt that all the surprises of her life began that year.
In the evening, when Ren He took Yang Xi to invite Xu Nuo to dine together at the small restaurant by the entrance of Yang Xi’s ho, when Ren He placed the very elegant-looking laptop into Little Fatty’s arms, Little Fatty almost cried: “This must be new, right? An old one definitely wouldn’t look like this.”
“Don’t you cry now, otherwise, others will see and think I have so kind of misunderstanding with you,” Ren He continued, stopping Little Fatty’s sentintality dead in its tracks. “I’m clearly telling you, this is an investnt. I value your programming skills, so don’t waste your talent. Did you know that society is inevitably heading towards the era of computers and networks? Don’t look at how terrifying the burst of the previous bubble was; this is the inevitable historical trajectory of future developnt. I want to catch that train, and you might just be my biggest reliance in chasing the era. So you must make yourself more competent and wait for opportunities with .”
Xu Nuo was confused by Ren He’s words, a 16-year-old boy wouldn’t have thought about these things, he even found it a bit hard to understand.
But he always felt that sothing big was bound to happen in the future, so for the future that Ren He ntioned, he had to work even harder.
“Let’s eat, let’s eat. The winter break has just started. Enjoy life!” Ren He said joyfully. “But I see you don’t look beaten up. Has your dad shown rcy this ti?”
“My mom stopped him, really. He hit
too hard last Chinese New Year, my mom was afraid he might cripple
this year…” Xu Nuo said with a wry smile.
This is literally learning programming with his life, Ren He clicked his tongue: “Hide this laptop well. Even if you smash another one, it’s not a big deal. I’m just afraid that you might perish young.”
On the way ho with Yang Xi that night, Ren He suddenly realized that Yang Xi stopped at the entrance of the residential area, and not far in front of her, a dignified-looking, neatly-dressed middle-aged woman stood quietly. The woman’s gaze shifted back and forth between him and Yang Xi. When she looked at Yang Xi, her eyes showed a hint of tenderness; when she looked at him, that murderous aura aid directly at Ren He’s face…
From her attire and deanor, the woman seed to belong to the social elite. Judging by her expression… he had just t his future father-in-law, and now was it the mother-in-law’s turn?
…
Christmas special, where are the people who said they’d give
a gift?
