Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids

Chapter 772 - 770: Epic Disaster Movie

What color is pig liver? Mo Jingchun finally got to see it today.

Seeing Zhou Yaling’s pig liver-colored face, Mo Jingchun quickly dragged Candy away.

If he said one more word, Mo Jingchun dared to say, Zhou Yaling would cry.

Crying isn’t shameful, but it depends on the reason.

During the New Year, if you really made Zhou Yaling cry, her uncle wouldn’t say anything, but he’d definitely be upset inside.

After a long while, Zhou Yaling, having calmed down, quietly cleaned up the mess.

Just when Mo Jingchun thought Zhou Yaling was still angry, she approached with a deck of cards.

"Let’s play cards!"

Seeing this, Mo Jingchun immediately understood that Zhou Yaling was still stewing in her own anger.

"Why not play King of Glory? I’m worried you can’t beat me at cards."

"I don’t believe it!"

At the table of four, to prevent Mo Jingchun from cheating, Zhou Yaling insisted that Mo Jingchun hand over all electronic devices and arranged for Candy and Zero to watch cartoons inside the room.

Zhou Yaling even got the old man to join the card game.

...

Watching his daughter confidently play her cards, Zhou Xing remarked grumpily:

"Xiaochun is the landlord, why are you playing my cards?"

Mo Jingchun grinned and unceremoniously threw out the little king.

Today, even the heavens seemed to favor him, as all the cards he drew were excellent.

A few minutes later, while shuffling the cards, Mo Jingchun remarked:

"Won again, that was too easy."

Zhou Yaling’s dark eyes shifted as she stood up and said:

"Big brother, how about we switch places? I want to try being the landlord too."

"What does seating have to do with it?" Mo Jingchun shook his head, but didn’t hesitate to switch seats with Zhou Yaling.

And sure enough, Zhou Yaling became the landlord.

But as for the ending... emm, she got thrashed by three other players.

Especially the uncle, he didn’t hold back at all.

After losing ten rounds in a row, Zhou Yaling was completely crushed.

Zhou Yaling could clearly feel the old man’s disdain.

"You shouldn’t gamble in the future, you’re not cut out for it."

Faced with the old man’s "mockery," Zhou Yaling secretly agreed.

It was all just bad luck, she wasn’t that bad.

Happy and leisurely times are always short-lived; after the holidays, work for those with jobs inevitably resumes.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Lantern Festival, Mo Jingchun had returned to the county with Candy two days prior.

The next visit to their hometown would be during Qingming Festival.

Having gotten used to the freedom of running around back home, Candy found it a bit difficult to adjust after returning to the county.

While Mo Jingchun busily prepared ingredients for the evening, Candy sat on the big sofa, watching cartoons out of boredom.

Her eyelids kept drooping, and it felt like she could fall asleep at any moment.

As the voices on the TV grew fainter and more distant, they finally "disappeared" from her ears.

After a long while, Mo Jingchun, while taking the trash from the kitchen, noticed a slightly surprised Candy already asleep in the living room.

Can she really sleep so soundly?

Not wanting to disturb her sleep, Mo Jingchun was extra cautious not to make loud noises while he worked.

When Candy woke up, she found a blanket on her and a cat lying next to her head.

Only Zero was missing.

Still groggy, Candy sat up, looked around, and while she saw no one, she heard sounds coming from the kitchen.

Candy had a dream, but whatever it was about, she couldn’t recall.

Clearly, during the dream, she kept reminding herself to remember the content.

Rubbing her eyes, Candy thought about it for a while, ultimately remembering nothing.

Finally, Candy gave up, but for some reason, she felt uneasy, as if she’d forgotten something important.

Around 3 PM, Zhou Yaling’s family had arrived by taxi.

Along with them was Li Xuanyu, whom they hadn’t seen for the entire winter break.

With the help of Zhou Yaling and Li Xuanyu, Mo Jingchun seemed to cook dinner much faster.

"Hey, big brother, is this year’s opening bonus the same as last year’s?"

Mo Jingchun glanced back at Zhou Yaling and said, "Otherwise?"

"There’s no need to add more money, reducing it would make everyone unhappy, keeping it the same is the best solution."

"That’s not what I mean. I mean Candy’s school starts tomorrow. Where will you be?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Jingchun raised an eyebrow, "Is there a conflict? I can finish Candy’s registration before 9:30, and usually, school on the first day is just registration, not classes."

"Alright then."

Zhou Yaling shrugged.

At the dinner table, faced with a large spread of delicious dishes, Candy’s mouth watered.

Seeing no one else start eating, Candy’s eyes twinkled, and she cheerfully raised her glass full of soda.

"Happy Lantern Festival!"

"Cheers!"

After taking a small sip, Candy eagerly picked up her chopsticks to eat.

Especially the sweet sausages made by her sister, they were incredibly tasty.

Halfway through the meal, Candy suddenly froze.

The others were quite puzzled by this.

Mo Jingchun asked, "What’s up?"

"I just remembered."

Seeing Candy on the verge of tears, Mo Jingchun was stunned.

How did a meal lead to tears? Nobody had upset Candy.

"I haven’t done my homework yet, and school starts tomorrow."

Just thinking about the teacher’s expression terrified Candy even more.

At that moment, Candy remembered what she had dreamt about that morning after falling asleep.

That’s right, in the dream, she was rushing to finish her homework.

"You have winter break homework?" Mo Jingchun was stunned.

In an instant, the eyes of the whole uncle’s family shifted from Candy to Mo Jingchun.

So it turned out the brother wasn’t doing his job; he didn’t even know if his sister had winter break homework.

With an innocent look, Mo Jingchun explained, "There was no notification in the parents’ group about winter break homework, nor any related costs."

The next moment, Candy couldn’t hold it in anymore.

"Wahhh~ I paid for the winter break homework, it was my allowance."

"Wahhh, the teacher said homework would be checked when school starts."

Massaging his temples, Mo Jingchun, feeling helpless, said, "Finish eating first, you can do your homework afterward. Don’t rush, tomorrow is just registration, there won’t be any classes."

"Stop crying, come on, give us a smile, it’s not a big deal."

"Just smile, success isn’t the goal..."

Listening to her brother’s off-tune singing, Candy couldn’t help but smile through her tears.

Late at night, Candy sat in the office chair, continuously doing homework, while Mo Jingchun kept yawning beside her.

"Candy, why not finish your homework tomorrow? It’s almost midnight."

Looking at the remaining Chinese winter homework, Candy hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

"Alright."

...

The next morning, as Mo Jingchun got up and got ready to go for a run, just as he walked out of the bedroom, he saw Candy coming down from upstairs.

Trailing behind her was Zero, looking amused at Candy’s expense.

"Good morning, big brother."

"Finishing up your homework?"

"Mm-hmm! I suddenly remembered, the homeroom teacher mentioned before the holiday ended that they’d check the winter homework during registration."
