123: Chapter 123 Visiting Second Uncle

It took a lot of effort for Qin Mo to pull Cheng Xiaoguang up.

Looking at his determined gaze, Qin Mo was speechless. Was it really necessary...

"Oh, right! Don't let your father know you have money. Also, don't give him any money from home; I'm afraid he won't be able to resist taking it to gamble again."

Cheng Xiaoguang nodded upon hearing this, and then the two walked into the room.

After a brief chat, Qin Mo took Murong Lanlan and left. As for Old Gambler, he couldn't be sent in yet; he was currently in a position to redeem himself through service.

Meanwhile, in the car.

Qin Shaojie glanced at Qin Mo while driving.

"Big Brother, do you want to go home and visit my dad?"

Visit Second Uncle? Come to think of it, he should pay a visit, otherwise wouldn't it be impolite for him as a junior?

Qin Mo nodded immediately.

"Let's go! Let's go see Second Uncle."

"Alright!"

Qin Shaojie smiled happily and drove the mercedes-benz g-class along the clean and tidy roads of Sea City towards the Qin Family's residence.

"I'm so envious! When will I ever own a mercedes-benz g-class?"

"To the person above, how much is your monthly salary? Let me calculate it for you."

"1,900 a month, why?"

"1,900? Then you could probably afford it after working for five years..."

"Really? I can buy a mercedes-benz g-class after working for five years?"

"You can afford one wheel of a mercedes-benz g-class..."

???

???

"Hahaha..."

"I'm dying of laughter. The national treasure giant panda is going to sue you in court for taking all its bamboo shoots."

"Look at how angry you made the national treasure giant panda; it even learned to talk."

...

Everyone chatted and laughed along the way, and soon they arrived outside a Chinese-style manor.

"We're here, Big Brother!"

Qin Shaojie opened the car door for Qin Mo.

After getting out of the car, Qin Mo scanned the area and then frowned.

Logically speaking, Second Uncle is the top official of Sea City, so he shouldn't have that much money. Why is this manor so luxurious?

Qin Shaojie, standing to the side, noticed Qin Mo's concern and smiled, "Big Brother, are you curious about how my dad, a Municipal Party Secretary, could afford such a large manor?"

"Actually, my dad didn't buy this. Third Uncle bought this manor for us. Have you forgotten? Third Uncle is a super billionaire."

Qin Mo nodded. He had almost forgotten about that wealthy Third Uncle whom he had never met.

Then, the three of them walked into the manor.

Qin Mo was amazed after seeing the interior decoration. It was worthy of Third Uncle's handiwork; it could be summed up in two words: lavishness!

At a glance, it was at least several thousand square meters, with three floors above ground and two floors below, featuring French limestone facades, Roman columns, a wishing pool... The total value was at least several hundred million.

Qin Mo did a rough calculation: if an ordinary person wanted to buy this manor, they would just need to start working since the Spring and Autumn Period...

Qin Shaojie insisted on taking the two of them on a tour of the entire manor.

"Shaojie, where have you been? Are these your friends?"

Just then, a middle-aged woman walked over and smiled.

Qin Shaojie looked at the woman and smiled lightly, "Mom, look who this is."

As he spoke, Qin Shaojie stepped aside.

When the woman saw Qin Mo and the other person, her eyes lit up immediately.

"Xiao Mo? Why are you here? Why didn't you tell your Second Uncle so we could have picked you up?"

"Mom, have you met Big Brother?"

Before Qin Mo could speak, Qin Shaojie asked, looking puzzled.

The woman glared at Qin Shaojie, "How long has it been since you returned to Yanjing? Your father and I were present when Xiao Mo returned to the family clan. Do you think everyone is like you, not even knowing how to go home?"

"Hehe..."

Qin Shaojie rubbed the back of his head, a trace of embarrassment flashing across his face.

The woman asked curiously, "By the way! How do you two know each other?"

As soon as she said this, a flash of panic crossed Qin Shaojie's face. He clasped his hands together and signaled to Qin Mo, afraid that Qin Mo would reveal his embarrassing story...

Qin Mo smiled faintly and said, "Second Aunt, we ran into each other while eating, and after chatting, we figured it out."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shaojie cast a grateful look at Qin Mo.

The woman said with some surprise, "Then you two really are fated!"

Then she looked at Murong Lanlan, "This must be Lanlan, right? The young lady is truly beautiful!"

"No, no, Second Aunt is very young too."

"The young lady is quite shy. You haven't eaten yet, right? I'll tell the chef to make something delicious today, and Second Aunt will take you to eat."

As she spoke, the woman took Murong Lanlan's hand and walked toward the hall.

Qin Mo exchanged a glance and followed. Come to think of it, he was indeed a bit hungry.

Soon, everyone arrived at the living room. Qin Mo sat on the sofa, looked around, and curiously observed the woman chatting with Murong Lanlan.

"Second Aunt, where is Second Uncle? Hasn't he returned yet?"

"Your Second Uncle? His old ailment flared up again, and he's currently in the study getting his back treated."

"Treating his back?"

"Does Second Uncle have a problem with his back?"

"Sigh... It's an old ailment. Whenever it's night or a rainy day, his waist hurts terribly. He's been to several hospitals, but they couldn't find any issues."

"Your Big Brother found some miracle doctor from somewhere, and is treating your Second Uncle's back. It's probably started by now."

"Oh?"

Qin Mo asked curiously, "Can I go take a look? I happen to know a little bit about medicine, maybe I can help."

"Really?"

The woman's face immediately showed surprise upon hearing this.

"I didn't expect Xiao Mo to know medicine as well. That's remarkable!"

Then the woman looked at Qin Shaojie with disappointment, "Shaojie, look at your Big Brother, and then look at yourself. When can you be as promising as your Big Brother? Then I would be relieved."

"This..."

Qin Shaojie immediately looked bitter upon hearing this.

"Mom! My Big Brother has talent. As far as I know, my Big Brother is skilled in both literature and martial arts, knows everything from feng shui and fortune-telling, can sing, do magic, and solve cases! Most importantly, he has incredible gambling skills. If you ask me to compare myself to my Big Brother, you might as well send me back to be remade..."

The woman became angry upon hearing this, "How are you talking, you brat? Do you want your Big Brother to beat you up again?"

Qin Shaojie immediately shrank his head. It was clear that he was still quite afraid of his Big Brother...

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, everyone headed toward the study.

From a distance, Qin Mo heard bursts of painful wailing.

What's going on? Logically, treating a back shouldn't be painful, right?

With questions in mind, Qin Mo slowly approached the study.

At this moment, two young men were standing at the door of the study. They were the two sons of Qin Mo's Second Uncle.

Qin Xuan and Qin Qiong.

Both of them were a bit surprised to see Qin Mo.

"Xiao Mo? Why are you here? Why didn't you tell Big Brother in advance so Big Brother could welcome you properly?"

Qin Mo smiled slightly, "Big Brother, Second Brother, I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts..."

Qin Xuan immediately looked displeased upon hearing this.

"How are you talking, Xiao Mo? Could Big Brother be so stingy? You're not going to see some guest; this is your home. Why would you bring gifts when coming home?"

"That's right! Xiao Mo, you're not allowed to say that next time, or your Big Brother won't be happy, and I, your Second Brother, won't be happy either!"

Qin Qiong, who was on the side, also added.
