Chapter 501: Candy Chickened Out

Although he hasn’t heard of Newton’s Third Law, Wang Haoran was 100% sure that whatever Newton’s Third Law was, it didn’t mean this.

"If you want to hit me, just say so, no need to bring up Newton’s Third Law."

Seeing the mocking look in his son’s eyes, Tang Jinglan gripped the wooden stick in her hand even tighter.

"Son, you’re right, your mother here does want to hit you."

"Be good, a good child is one disciplined by the stick."

"Mom, the elders say, a gentleman uses words, not fists. Just drop the stick."

"Hehe, your mom here isn’t a gentleman; she’s just a little lady," said Tang Jinglan in a faint tone.

On the other side, Mo Jingchun watched as the two disappeared from the surveillance footage, feeling a bit disappointed.

Why not fight outside? Mo Jingchun still wanted to see how this guy would react.

"Zero, shut down the computer."

As soon as he said that, the computer monitor screen dimmed.

Before long, the cooling fan of the computer host also stopped spinning.

Mo Jingchun patted his sister’s head and said with a smile, "Let’s go home."

Only after glancing inside did Mo Jingchun realize Zhou Yaling hadn’t come over yet.

Taking this opportunity, Mo Jingchun teased his sister with a smile and said, "When your sister was at school before, I would just send her a red envelope on her birthday."

"This year, your sister is back, so sending a red envelope might not work."

Candy, who had just sat on the bicycle, looked up at her brother with confusion and asked, "Is sister’s birthday coming up?"

"Yeah, in five days, it’s your sister’s birthday."

"You didn’t forget, did you?"

Candy widened her eyes, stretched her neck, and retorted, "How could I? Guoguo definitely remembers sister’s birthday."

"Really?"

"Of course! Sister’s birthday is in five days."

Little did Candy know, as soon as she finished speaking, Mo Jingchun smiled and said,

"Oh, I just remembered wrong, it’s actually six days until your sister’s birthday."

For a moment, the office was eerily quiet, and Xia Xiaomin, who had just come in, stopped in her tracks instinctively.

Standing from Xia Xiaomin’s position, one could only see Candy’s face full of disbelief.

After a long while, Candy scratched her neck and said earnestly, "Maybe Guoguo just isn’t good at math, that’s why I counted wrong."

Mo Jingchun chuckled with his lips curled, "So that’s how it is."

"Mmhmm."

"So have you thought about what birthday gift to give your sister? Don’t just give a couple of verbal blessings like before."

"A gift...?" This really posed a problem for her.

What would be good to give?

"No rush, let Guoguo think about it some more."

Candy would never admit that the reason she said this was because she couldn’t think of a good gift for the moment.

Hmph, when I get to school tomorrow, I’ll have the whole bunch of cuties in our class help think, I’m sure we can think of a suitable gift.

Listening to her boss and Candy chatting, Xia Xiaomin felt relieved and sat down at her workstation, casually putting the document into one of the blue folders.

"Yeah, definitely need to think about it carefully."

"Let’s go see what trouble your sister is making; it’s been half a day since work ended and she still hasn’t come over."

"This isn’t the proactive behavior your sister usually shows after work."

On the sofa, seeing the little master riding a bicycle out, Bun thought they were going home.

Without any hesitation, Bun leaped off the sofa and landed perfectly on the back seat of the bicycle.

"Oh no."

Bun came so suddenly, and Candy hadn’t expected Bun to jump up, she wasn’t prepared at all.

In an instant, the bike almost toppled over.

After stabilizing, Candy angrily looked back at Bun.

Thinking to herself, Bun, don’t you know how heavy you are?

"Hmph~" Seeing Bun’s innocent little eyes, Candy just let out a soft hum and didn’t make Bun get off the bike.

After all, Bun was technically her first passenger.

This honor was supposed to be Xiang’Er’s.

When Mo Jingchun and Candy arrived at the CEO’s office, only Zhou Yaling was left there fighting on her own.

Work had ended a while ago, and everyone else had already left.

"Oh? Busy, little sister?"

"I wonder how much longer it will take you, sister."

Concentrating on the electronic spreadsheet, Zhou Yaling didn’t have the energy to argue with the sarcastic tone of her elder brother.

"Almost done, just give me ten more minutes."

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun shrugged at Candy, casually pulled over the nearest chair, and simply sat down.

"Then your ultra-rich brother here will wait for you."

After a while, Candy got a bit bored.

Sitting on the bicycle, from time to time she used her foot to tease Little Grey.

Suddenly, Candy realized something and looked up at her brother with curiosity and asked, "Brother, Little Grey is getting bigger and bigger, will we still call it Little Grey?"

Mo Jingchun, browsing today’s news on his phone, glanced at his sister, "What else would we call it? If not Little Grey, should we call it Big Grey?"

"That sounds terrible."

"Woof woof woof~" As if agreeing, Little Grey suddenly barked twice.

"See, even Little Grey thinks it’s terrible."

Candy glanced at Little Grey and pouted.

Since there’s a Big Black, why can’t there be a Big Grey?

Hmph, I’ll find Big Black to play when I have time.

On the training field, the dagger suddenly sneezed.

Instinctively, he glanced around.

After confirming several times that he didn’t see the Little Demon King, he relaxed, watching everyone train.

In the CEO’s office, Little Grey watched its owner’s eyes, tail tucked, feeling a bit scared.

Those eyes, looked like they could eat a dog!

"Alright, finally done for the day." Closing the laptop lid, Zhou Yaling stretched her stiff neck, and both Mo Jingchun and Candy clearly heard a creak.

"Wow, sis, didn’t you just break your neck?"

Stretching, Zhou Yaling rolled her eyes at Candy.

"If my neck were broken, could I still stand here talking to you?"

"Let’s go, need to cook once we get home."

Unexpectedly, Candy giggled, "Sis, but I don’t have to cook, so there’s no rush for me."

In the next second, Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling both looked at Candy with a grudge-filled gaze.

That look made Candy’s scalp tingle, itching to ride away on her bicycle.

"Do you still want to eat tonight or not?"

Beside her, Mo Jingchun nodded in agreement, clearly declaring his support for Zhou Yaling on this matter!

Having someone cook for you is already a blessing, how could you diminish a chef’s enthusiasm?

Under their combined pressure, Candy yielded.

Food is essential, you feel empty without eating for even one meal.

You can’t miss eating, unless it’s breakfast.

Outside the office building, as Mo Jingchun got in the car, Candy pointed at the dormitory building and said reassuringly, "Brother, there’s that big sister again."

Following her finger, Mo Jingchun also saw the mother and son duo.

The difference was, the little guy was walking with embarrassment at the back, his gait awkward.
