Chapter 134
Chapter 134: My New Bride Is YanyanMengyang absolutely refused to believe Li Mo’s Penguin account number and level.
How could anyone have such a number?
He found it completely impossible.
“You’re a hacker, right, bro?”
Faced with the admiration of a middle schooler, Li Mo couldn’t help but laugh helplessly.
He walked toward the entrance of Guyue Restaurant, where his parents were already waiting.
Clearly, the person they cared most about was Li Mo’s bride.
After all, in most cases, the people who most want their children to live well are their parents.
“Where’s your bride?”
Shen Caixia’s expression fell slightly. She began to suspect Li Mo might be bluffing. It did seem possible.
“Mom, Dad, she’s resting at the hotel. She’ll be here in less than an hour.”
“Don’t worry, you two.”
Hearing that, his parents finally relaxed.
If he were lying, he wouldn’t have kept it up to this point.
“Alright, enough talk.”
“Let’s head into the hotel. Everyone’s here. Go pay your respects to your grandparents first.”
At that moment, Li Mo suddenly remembered…he hadn’t prepared anything to honor his grandparents.
He had already prepared a bank card for his parents, but his grandparents weren’t technically his responsibility.
Still, he had to show some respect.
In past years, he would give both sets of elders some cash during holidays, even though they had pensions.
But his gesture mattered.
“Mom, Dad, you go ahead. Wait for me a moment.”
Li Mo ran toward a nearby bank.
His parents grew suspicious.
What was this kid up to…
Was he planning to run away?
…
Soon, Li Mo returned with 10,000 yuan in cash. His identity was no longer something he could hide.
Giving 10,000 yuan now wasn’t a big deal.
When he arrived at the banquet hall, he heard his younger cousin bragging that he was a hacker.
“My brother is a hacker! Look, his Penguin number is 100! He’s definitely a hacker!”
Hearing Mengyang’s worshipful tone, Li Mo couldn’t help but laugh again.
“Xiao Mo, you’re back. That’s great.”
His uncle looked energetic. Li Mo’s cousin Guo Saile was now working at Ali as a tech specialist.
His older cousin had landed a government job and was riding high.
His second aunt chimed in, “Xiao Mo, where’s your girlfriend? Didn’t you say you found someone new after the divorce? Someone prettier than Su Xiaoxiao! That’ll drive her mad.”
Though she said that, no one really believed it.
Back when Su Xiaoxiao married Li Mo, all his aunts were green with envy. If their sons could marry such a beautiful woman, it would surely improve the family’s genes.
“She’ll be here soon. Don’t worry, you’ll all meet her.”
Thinking about what was about to happen…
Li Mo silently prayed for Su Qingyan, hoping she had the strength to handle it.
“That’s good, that’s good.”
“No matter what she’s like, marrying our Xiao Mo is a blessing.”
“Living a peaceful life together is all our family ever hopes for.”
“Everything else doesn’t matter.”
His eldest uncle added.
Li Mo walked over to his grandparents and handed them the envelope with 10,000 yuan.
“Grandma, Grandpa, please accept this. It’s a small token of my respect. Open it when you get home.”
Li Mo knew they favored his uncles and had a bias toward sons, but they were already nearing the end of their lives. He didn’t hold it against them.
He also didn’t want them to open the envelope now and make his cousins feel awkward.
Everyone usually gave just 500 yuan. Li Mo didn’t want to steal the spotlight.
They only saw each other during holidays anyway.
“Alright.”
His grandparents smiled and accepted the money without opening it. The family looked cheerful and harmonious.
Once everyone sat down, his uncle began to chat enthusiastically.
“The internet industry is booming. Guo Saile is now a tech talent at Ali, earning 15,000 yuan a month.”
Hearing that, the other relatives looked envious.
15,000 yuan a month was indeed a high salary in this era.
“Plus, Mr. Ma seems to value him a lot. Rumor has it his salary might rise to over 20,000, maybe even 30,000 or 50,000 in the future.”
“Xiao Mo, I heard you’re unemployed. If your salary isn’t high, you might consider switching to the internet industry.”
Li Mo: “…”
He didn’t reply, just nodded. Not everyone in this world was modest and cautious. That was normal.
Li Mo understood that well…
So he didn’t say much. When it really mattered, family would help.
“Or you could take the civil service exam. Your cousin is already in the system. The salary isn’t high, but the hidden benefits are great…bonuses, insurance, and most importantly, job security.”
Li Mo nodded again, without responding.
His younger uncle added, “Actually, doing online sales works too. Bing’er’s monthly revenue is over 100,000.”
Li Mo glanced at his cousin, who was about his age and dressed in fake designer brands. He didn’t expose her.
His uncle clearly didn’t understand these things. He believed whatever his daughter said.
“I think being a doctor is best. If Mengyang becomes a doctor, that’d be great. Menglong is doing customer service and hasn’t made much money.”
Beside him, cousin Menglong lowered his head, clearly envious of Guo Saile and Bing’er.
Or maybe he could take the civil service exam…
His eldest uncle looked at his youngest son with hope.
Mengyang quickly shook his head.
“I don’t want to be a doctor. I want to be a hacker like my brother. I want to hack three-digit Penguin accounts!”
His younger cousin Mengyue argued with him.
“What three-digit Penguin account? You’re crazy.”
“There really are three-digit accounts! Brother Mo has one. He’s a hacker!”
No one took it seriously. They moved on to discussing various industries.
