Chapter 122: Going Home
Chen Mo finally shook his head helplessly; he still found the revival of Tianlong to be somewhat surreal even now.
Moreover, he seemed to be the biggest contributor, yet initially, he really just wanted to get revenge.
"Brothers, I've decided. I'm going to build the strongest Tianlong account, so if you want to sell the materials and gold coins that drop later on, remember to find me. I'll take them all."
"The price is negotiable, though given my personality, I'll definitely be buying them at the cheapest rate."
"Hahahaha, just kidding."
That gaming blogger said while playing the game.
Chen Mo watched the peaceful game livestream, posted a comment saying 'trash game', and then exited the Livestream room immediately.
Because of one livestream, he had earned so much more money.
This Tianlong was completely ruined; he could only pin his hopes on Fang Chang's new project.
Of course, he still had two other opportunities to develop new industries, so he could take the holiday period to look for ways to lose money.
Time passed, and soon it was time to get off work.
…
Old City Community.
Chen Mo was sitting at Yang Dahai's house eating dinner; previously, Yang Duoduo would always bring the food upstairs.
However, this time, because the holiday was starting tomorrow, Dong Hong had cooked many dishes and just asked him to come over to eat.
"Come on, Chen Mo, eat while it's hot. There are just two more dishes to finish."
Dong Hong placed a plate of large shrimp on the table and hurried back to the kitchen.
Chen Mo smiled slightly but didn't pick up his chopsticks.
As for the way Dong Hong addressed him, it was at his request; after all, they were off work, so there was no need to call him President Chen, and it sounded quite awkward to him anyway.
Not long after, the table was full of dishes. Chen Mo counted them briefly and was surprised to find there were 12 dishes.
"Chen Mo, are you going home for the holiday? If you aren't, you can just spend the holiday here with us."
"It just so happens that our Yaoyao is coming back in the next two days. You are about the same age, so you can hang out together."
Dong Hong sat at the dining table and picked up a piece of meat, placing it into Chen Mo's bowl.
"I'm going home. The train is tomorrow morning."
Chen Mo replied.
"Brother Chen, that's such a pity! My sister is very beautiful, you know!"
Yang Duoduo tilted her little head and suddenly spoke up.
Chen Mo smiled upon hearing this, and seeing Yang Duoduo's cute appearance, he couldn't help but pinch her little cheeks.
"Then between you and your sister, who is better looking?"
Yang Duoduo heard this, looked down at herself, and pouted.
"Duo Duo is too young right now. When I grow up, I will be even prettier than my sister."
The dinner soon ended amidst laughter.
Chen Mo wanted to help clean up the dishes, but Yang Dahai stopped him, so he helplessly returned to his own home.
He called his parents to inform them of the time he would arrive home tomorrow.
To get back earlier, he booked the six o'clock high-speed train in the morning.
However, the place where his home was located was a county-level city that didn't have a train line yet, so the high-speed train could only reach the prefecture-level city, and then he would have to transfer to a bus or take a taxi to get home.
So, after a simple wash, he rested early.
…
The next morning, Chen Mo arrived at the train station early, successfully checked his ticket, boarded the train, and set off on his journey home.
At the same time, a bus slowly stopped at the entrance of the Garment factory.
The bus door opened, and ten figures slowly walked out; they were the ten Garment factory employees who had gone out for training previously.
"I'm here, finally back."
"It's still the same familiar appearance, the same familiar atmosphere."
"The month of training has finally come to an end."
"…" The group of employees looked at the familiar Garment factory before them, unable to help but tear up.
Wu Yu looked at the workshop before him with some emotion. He had finally returned.
…
Jinyang City.
Chen Mo slowly walked out of the train station and glanced at the time; it was exactly eight o'clock.
In order to get home as quickly as possible, he hailed a taxi directly at the station entrance.
"Driver, go to Beiming County." He said this to the taxi driver and got into the car.
Jinyang City is not very far from Beiming County; it takes about forty minutes to get there.
"Driver, stopping here is fine." Forty minutes later, Chen Mo directed the taxi driver to stop in front of an appliance mall.
After paying the fare, he got out of the car. Looking at the appliance mall in front of him, he walked straight inside.
He didn't choose to go home, but instead planned to order a few appliances at the mall before heading back.
After all, given his parents' personalities, if he went back and said he wanted to replace the appliances at home, he would definitely be stopped.
So he prepared to act first and report later, buying them before going back.
Actually, his family was not very poor; in fact, compared to other ordinary families, they were even better off.
His father was a high school teacher, and his mother worked at the county government as a civil servant.
Although their monthly salaries were not very high, they weren't low either, and from childhood to adulthood, he had never been mistreated in terms of food and clothing.
Even his daily pocket money was much higher than other children's.
But the only thing was that these two were very frugal with themselves; they rarely bought new clothes, and for so many years, the house hadn't had air conditioning installed. As for the refrigerator and washing machine, they were also from many years ago.
He often advised them not to be so frugal and that they should enjoy life a little when they could.
But no matter how he tried to persuade them, they would always remain the same.
This time, since he had already made money anyway, he decided to just replace them for them.
He ordered all the necessary appliances at the appliance mall and arranged for the delivery and installation time.
Immediately after, he bought some nutritional supplements, and only then did he feel relieved to go back.
More than ten minutes later, Chen Mo, carrying large and small bags, walked into the Complex where he had lived for over a decade.
Since he started college, he had come back much less frequently.
The familiar layout, the familiar buildings—time had brought no changes to them other than making them look more dilapidated.
Chen Mo took a deep breath of the air here and slowly walked into the somewhat dim stairwell.
On the third floor, Chen Mo looked at the familiar door and knocked gently.
"Coming." A familiar voice came from inside the room.
Soon the door was opened.
"Why did you buy so many things? Didn't I tell you not to buy anything? Is it heavy? You must be exhausted. Come in quickly, I've wrapped the dumplings you love most."
Yang Xiulian looked at the large and small bags in Chen Mo's hands and complained a little first.
Then she hurriedly took the things from Chen Mo's hands and pulled him into the house.
Closing the door, she shouted into the room.
"Old Chen, our son is back. Hurry up and put the dumplings into the pot."
"It's almost noon; he must be hungry."
