Happy! The stepmother of a wealthy family will lie down and count money

Chapter 685 Crying?!

Yu Jingmo first expressed both respect and fear for Lin Qingchuan's academic excellence, saying, "Kid, you need to pay attention to the balance between work and rest, don't become a fool."

The boy was silent for two seconds, then, facing a pair of eyes filled with genuine worry, he suppressed the growing helplessness in his eyes and said, "I was selective; I only did one or two questions where I knew the steps and answers at a glance."

So in reality, those exercise books weren't filled to the brim.

Yu Jingmo's academic performance used to be considered above average, except for math, which she spent most of her time on and could only be considered above average.

She is now very glad that she had the foresight to choose the art exam, otherwise she would have been so discouraged to be in class with such academic superstars every day!

The more Yu Jingmo talked about this topic, the more it hurt him, so he chose to change the subject:

What did Gu Xiujing do?

Lin Qingchuan dutifully acted as a relay: "They're fighting."

Knowing that Yu Jingmo liked to hear details, Lin Qingchuan added, "Because someone stole his girlfriend."

Yu Jingmo was shocked: "Who is it? Did they really rob us?"

The on-again, off-again relationship between Gu Xiujing and Peng Ning'er is due to their own internal conflicts. In particular, Gu Xiujing's personality is not much better than before, and Peng Ning'er's ability to restrain him is far from sufficient.

If anyone develops feelings for Peng Ning'er, given Gu Xiujing's outrageously possessive nature, he certainly won't let her go easily.

"No, I heard from others that that person seems to like Peng Ning'er, but I don't know if it's true or not."

In the past, it would have been quite remarkable that Lin Qingchuan even knew about Gu Xiujing's fight, but now she can even explain some of the reasons behind it, which is truly impressive.

This is entirely because we now have a mom who loves to listen to gossip and hear the backstory.

This has led him to unconsciously seek out information to avoid being asked questions he can't answer, thus avoiding the disappointment he might feel in Yu Jingmo's eyes.

As it turns out, my preparation was very helpful.

Lin Qingchuan couldn't help but feel a little happy, but he still maintained his calm demeanor. "Their parents were all called in, and Gu Xiujing's eyes were red when they left."

Yu Jingmo's pupils dilated in shock, "Crying?!"

Lin Qingchuan: "...It must have been because we got carried away with the fight earlier, and we were so angry."

Yu Jingmo pursed his lips sheepishly: "My thoughts wandered a little."

It was more than just a little bit; even Lin Qingchuan couldn't help but want to complain, but he held back.

"The fight happened yesterday; their parents were called this morning."

Yu Jingmo thought of Zhen Zhen's Weibo post, "Who went to Gu Xiujing's side?"

"His housekeeper."

Yu Jingmo nodded. It wasn't entirely untrue that Zhen Zhen had something going on at home, but it wasn't to the point where she needed to put her work aside. There was definitely a problem.

After dinner, it was still time for the family to take a walk to digest their food.

Usually at this time, it's Yu Jingmo who talks, and the other two listen.

Today was different; before she could even speak, Lin Hui spoke first.

"These past few days, several media outlets have been asking about you and wanting to interview you. I've already turned them down, but today a reputable major media outlet has approached us. Would you like to accept the interview?"

She was looking up at the few stars in the sky, and with her hand being held, she wasn't worried about getting lost.

Upon hearing the sound, he didn't react immediately; it took him two seconds to turn to the person beside him.

"Interview me?"

Seeing Lin Hui nod, she was even more confused: "What's there to interview me about?"

"To be precise, it was an interview about 'rent'."

Upon hearing this, Yu Jingmo immediately realized that it was a chain reaction stemming from the previous "forwarding incident."

She thought it was all in the past!
