Chapter 243: 129, has the Intelligence System been secretly upgraded? This is a bloody lesson!!_3
Lin Xiaoxiao seemed to understand the rules and nodded emphatically, expressing her interest as she said, “Daddy, I will definitely remember what you said, and I will disguise myself well. All the kids in front of the TV, just wait and watch our family’s wonderful performance!”
The childlike statement brought rare smiles to the faces of everyone else in the car.
Bitter smiles.
If only this were truly a game, how nice would that be?
Li Jinwen laughed, but as she did, her eyes couldn’t help but redden slightly; she quickly wiped the corners of her eyes and took out the disguise materials, saying, “Xiaoxiao, your new name is Mumu, Li Mumu. Have you remembered?”
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously: “I’ve remembered, my name is Li Mumu! From now on, I’m not Lin Xiaoxiao anymore!!”
“Good. Mommy will start doing your makeup now, close your eyes, and it will be done in a moment!”
“Okay, Mommy, hurry, Mumu wants to become beautiful!”
Li Jinwen began to apply makeup to Lin Xiaoxiao, while Lin Mo also started to disguise himself, and finally, he disguised Li Jinwen. After all this was done, the family got out of the car and walked into a breakfast diner by the roadside.
Lin Xiaoxiao was extremely excited and eagerly looked around for cameras.
Under immense pressure, no one in the family knew what to say, or rather, due to nervousness and fear, dared not say much. Afraid of letting slip the wrong words and leaving any traces, they could only eat in silence, exchanging occasional glances.
After eating, they rented two cars from a private rental service and headed for Northern Sea City.
As for their original car, they just needed to pay the rental agency to reclaim it from a different location.
Lin Mo drove a sedan with Li Jinwen, Lin Xiaoxiao, Zhang Li, and Lin Siyu inside.
The other car carried the four seniors.
After getting on the highway, the two cars stayed close. Li Jinshan’s driving skills were quite good, so there was no worry about losing each other.
Zhang Li initially suggested that he drive, but considering his injuries, Lin Mo vetoed the idea.
…
Over 500 kilometers wasn’t considered far.
By evening, the family had already arrived at the Moon Bay development area of Northern Sea City.
The terrain here generally slopes from high in the north to low in the south, and the topography is flat and open. It has a maritime monsoon climate with typical subtropical characteristics. Even in winter, the temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius.
Because of the sea view and the comfortable temperatures, and the cost being much lower than in Sanya, many people from the north choose to come here to spend the winter.
Even during the New Year, there are many tourists, creating a bustling scene on the crowded streets.
Following the information he found on the way, Lin Mo hurried to a property agency by the sea and rented a large villa not far from the beach.
The prices were high for the New Year, but not outrageously so.
After paying and signing the contract, the agent led the whole family to the location of the villa.
The house was luxurious, with a vast footprint, and combined with the outside scenery and the rolling waves of the distant sea, it was a perfect place for a holiday.
However, because they had troubles on their minds, aside from Lin Xiaoxiao, the others couldn’t be considered too happy.
After touring the house, the agent left.
“Mom and Dad, you sit in the living room for a while, and I will check the house,” said Lin Mo.
It had become his habit to check for surveillance whenever he arrived somewhere new.
This was an important habit.
Although it was often in vain, some meaningless tasks had to be done.
“Mo, I will help too,” said Lin Changshui.
“Many hands make light work, bro, I will help too!” Li Jinshan also got up to join, and Zhang Li began looking around every nook and cranny.
Lin Changshui and Xu Qin also started to pitch in, while Zhao Huixian stayed to take care of Lin Siyu, so she didn’t join in.
Although they were all amateurs, Lin Mo didn’t stop them.
It was good to let them have something to do, which would help them adapt to their new identities faster.
Lin Xiaoxiao, curious about the hustle and bustle, asked, “Mommy, what are they doing?”
“They are looking for clues left by the production crew,” Li Jinwen explained with a smile and then asked, “Xiaoxiao, let Mommy test you: do you remember your name now?”
“Hmm!” Lin Xiaoxiao was very eager and nodded, saying, “My name is Li Mumu, my daddy is Li Jingcheng, mommy is Wei Shumeng, and we’re all from Northern Sea City!”
Li Jinwen asked again, “Then who is Lin Xiaoxiao?”
“Lin Xiaoxiao is… who is Lin Xiaoxiao? I don’t know!” Lin Xiaoxiao almost got tricked but responded firmly after realizing it.
“Mmm, not bad! You’re doing great, and we will definitely win the championship!” Li Jinwen comforted her daughter and herself, then smilingly said, “Now, let’s remember Grandpa and Grandma’s names, shall we?”
“Hmm, okay!”
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded earnestly, unaware of the truth and exhibiting a lively and enthusiastic demeanor.
Her joyful actions and full energy also affected the adults, who were beginning to feel worn out. It seemed to rejuvenate them with infinite strength!
No matter how difficult life is or the future might be,
As long as the family is together, there will always be a day to get through it.
..
The villa Lin Mo had rented, despite having only two floors, covered a large area and had many rooms. With five or six people searching, it still took more than two hours to fully check the entire place.
