Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids

"Hmm?"

As soon as Candy said this, Zhou Xing’s eyes lit up instantly.

Standing to the side, Mo Jingchun silently turned his head to look out the window.

This kid, when Zhou Yaling comes back tomorrow, she’s probably going to get a beating.

At home, she was reminded not to speak recklessly; it seems like it just went in one ear and out the other.

Mo Jingchun thought, should I step in tomorrow or just let it happen?

Poor Candy, laugh all you want now because you won’t be laughing tomorrow.

"Candy, hurry..."

"Tell your uncle, is there any gossip."

Gossip? Candy scratched her head while looking at her excited uncle and said, "There’s no gossip, it’s just that my sister ran off to Shanghai without a word. She probably didn’t go alone, right?"

"If she went alone, she might as well have gone on a trip with us a few days ago."

"Makes sense!" Zhou Xing was so happy he slapped his thigh.

Mo Jingchun sighed lightly. Zhou Yaling didn’t want to go on a trip with everyone because she knew she’d be a third wheel. For her brother’s sake, she decided not to go.

Unlike you, little one, who is the brightest bulb on the street.

"When she comes back, I’ll have a proper talk with her."

"As her father, it’s not too much to scope out the situation first, right?"

Mo Jingchun felt he couldn’t let Candy and her uncle keep guessing, as it would be awkward if it turned out she had just gone out with female colleagues.

Thinking of this, Mo Jingchun tugged at Candy’s clothes, giving her knowing looks.

Candy looked up at her brother in confusion, "Brother, is something wrong with your eyes?"

Indeed, those seeking their own downfall can’t be stopped.

He gave Bun a playful tap on the head. Bun understood and walked out with style, clearly intending to check out the cars parked outside the security control room.

Seeing Bun approach, Lone Wolf grinned and opened the car door.

Bun’s cleverness was well-known to everyone, unlike Little Grey, who often seemed silly unless she was dealing with Zero, in which case she was cunning.

"Uncle, it’s getting late; we’re heading back now."

"Alright." Zhou Xing nodded.

Not giving Candy a chance to say more, Mo Jingchun scooped her up and briskly walked away.

After getting in the car and closing the door, Mo Jingchun looked at Candy with sympathy, "You’re in trouble. You dared to tell Uncle about your sister going on a date. When she gets back, prepare to face the music."

Candy hesitated for a moment and argued, "I said maybe she’s dating."

Mo Jingchun chuckled, "Do you think Uncle will see it that way?"

Hearing her brother say this, Candy thought seriously for a moment and her face changed.

Uncle doesn’t care about what’s real or not; he’ll just ask sister directly.

"Brother~"

"Oh~ sweet talk, are we?"

"Brother, you can’t let such a cute sister get caught in trouble."

Mo Jingchun waved his hand dismissively, "No worries, it’s a small problem. Besides, I haven’t left you unscathed either."

But that’s different, Candy thought.

Her brother only pretended when he "hit" her, feeling sorry for her, but her sister truly meant it.

Her sister was the kind who either didn’t hit at all or went all out when she did.

Pretending to hit? No way.

Thinking of this, Candy couldn’t help but take a cold breath, wanting to lay low. If push comes to shove, she thought of bringing her sister-in-law to back her up; with her around, her sister might not do anything.

"What are you plotting now?" Mo Jingchun was curious.

"Nothing, I’ve decided to come clean with sister."

"Or else Uncle will ruin me!"

"Oh, you’ve gotten wiser. Speaking up before Uncle might actually get your sister to spare you."

"After all, dating and maybe dating aren’t the same thing."

As soon as he finished, Mo Jingchun saw Candy’s eyes light up as she took out her phone and called.

"Moshi moshi..."

"Sister, I’m coming clean!..."

"..."

"Wow, you two."

"I just went out for two days, and suddenly I have a boyfriend? Such luck?"

Sitting beside Mo Jingchun, he coughed.

"Cough~ nothing to do with me though."

"Hehe, I believe you!"

Mo Jingchun rubbed his nose and said helplessly, "Your tone doesn’t sound like you believe it."

The next day at noon, after lunch, Candy went straight to her room for a nap.

After playing for so many days, it seemed like she was sleepy every day.

Soon, back in her room, Candy fell asleep quickly. After she was asleep, her phone exited its apps and went to sleep mode.

On the sofa, Mo Jingchun inquired about the project progress in Anyang County from Su Wenyan. Then, he posted in the work group, thanking everyone for their hard work and promising they won’t be disappointed with the year-end bonus.

After earning some goodwill from the employees, Mo Jingchun nodded in satisfaction.

He was well aware of how tough things were on site.

Even for management, it was no walk in the park. On-site, you need your phone to be reachable 24/7, ready to respond at any time, with overtime as a norm. As for weekends, they were no different from weekdays for engineers—business as usual. Even national holidays called for working.

Putting down his phone, Mo Jingchun lay on the sofa, resting his eyes.

He wasn’t deeply asleep, so he opened his eyes upon hearing the door.

Seeing Zhou Yaling in her floral dress, as usual without makeup, Mo Jingchun yawned and said, "Back this early?"

Zhou Yaling glanced around the corners of the first floor, squinting as she asked, "Where’s Candy?"

Seeing her expression, Mo Jingchun’s mouth twitched.

Just got home and already asking for Candy, you so keen to give her a hard time?

"She’s sleeping."

"Hmph, lucky her."

Mo Jingchun chuckled, refraining from comment, as it wouldn’t do to intervene when she’s giving herself an out.

"By the way, who were you with on your trip?"

"You can’t blame Candy for saying you went on a date. Going to Disney is usually for families or couples, not much room for other kinds of buddies."

Zhou Yaling poured herself a glass of water and casually said, "Who could I go with, my university friends aren’t even that close."

"The proposal came from the executive group chat, so a bunch of us went for a short trip."

Mo Jingchun stood up, stretching with a smile, "Say what you will, it won’t work on me; it’s Uncle you must convince."

"Tut-tut, Uncle was practically glowing yesterday, probably already preparing the dowry."

Splutter~ Zhou Yaling spat out her water, looking as if she could cry but had no tears, she said:

"Don’t scare me."
