Chapter 1299 A Strategically Important Place

All I can say is that the old man meant well, but his behavior was just too obvious.

Professor Li had always thought Lin Mo was a perfect student: talented, with a good personality, good looks, and capable of handling tasks. Most importantly, he was reliable and steady, unlike Fan Peng who was impulsive and rash.

But as graduation approached, Lin Mo unexpectedly gave him a surprise. He managed to end up in the hospital after taking a simple kidney-tonifying prescription. Professor Li even wondered if he had been bewitched. How come every student who seemed so talented turned out to be so abstract after graduation?

He used to think it was all good, but who would have thought that Lin Mo would also mess with him as graduation approached? Lin Mo himself posed no threat to him in academia, but he managed to ruin his reputation in the education field.

Professor Li was also worried that his student might prescribe medication to him indiscriminately, so he figured he might as well get him something to nourish himself.

My student is young and rich, so this is all the trouble he has left. After all, even Hua Tuo (a legendary Chinese physician) can't cure his beloved wife.

Especially since this beautiful wife is Liu Ruyan, and Professor Li has deliberately examined Liu Ruyan's pulse before, he knows all too well what kind of beautiful wife his student's family is like.

Fortunately, Lin Mo is still young and has a good foundation. He had taken Chinese medicine before because his body was truly deficient, but now that deficiency has been replenished, he doesn't need to take Chinese medicine anymore. He can just drink some of this health-preserving tea.

Lin Mo returned home speechlessly with only a few packets of health tea left. He had to practically snatch those last two packets back from him.

There was no way around it; these few living fathers, upon hearing that it had the effects of tonifying the kidneys, improving the skin, and replenishing qi and blood, were more enthusiastic than anyone else. It felt like this little bit of tea wasn't enough for them.

If Lin Mo said he bought the tea from outside, they would scoff at it, but if he said it was given to him by Professor Li, they would definitely flock to it. That's how authoritative a big shot in traditional Chinese medicine is.

"You're back? How was it?" Liu Ruyan asked with a smile as she saw Lin Mo push the door open and come in.

Hearing this, Lin Mo nodded: "That's right, my teacher is very happy!"

"I told you, listening to your sister is always the right thing to do, now you believe me!" Liu Ruyan said smugly.

Lin Mo couldn't help but give her a thumbs up. Liu Ruyan was indeed much better than him at interpersonal communication; she handled everything with ease.

"I believe it, I believe it. It has to be you, Sister Ruyan. Okay, I'm going to take a nap. I'm too tired! I'm a little sleepy. By the way, this is a health tea that my teacher gave me. You can drink some when you have time. It nourishes the kidneys, replenishes qi and blood, and can improve one's complexion." Lin Mo placed the health tea on the dining table and then waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "Alright, go to sleep now!"

After returning to his bedroom, Lin Mo took off his clothes and immediately collapsed onto the bed. Because he had barely slept the night before and had been standing for most of the night, his eyelids started to droop as soon as he lay down.

When Lin Mo opened his eyes again, he took out his phone from the bedside table and checked the time. He found that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and he finally felt a little better.

I opened the curtains, and sunlight streamed in through the window. Just by looking outside, I knew the temperature was quite high, and the view in the distance was somewhat distorted.

"Sister Ruyan?"

Lin Mo pushed open the bedroom door and called out, but no one responded. He went outside and looked around but didn't see Liu Ruyan. She probably wasn't home.

He didn't care much about it; after all, he was a grown man, and he couldn't just lose himself.

Walking into the living room, he looked at the luggage he had brought back from school, opened the suitcase, and took out the items one by one.

He didn't have much stuff—just some clothes, small items on the table, storage boxes, and the like. As for bedding and shoes he no longer wore, he had already thrown them away. He did bring back all the books, a thick stack that filled half a suitcase, and most of them were new, barely even opened.

Then he took things out one by one, putting the books in the glass display case and folding up some old clothes that were still wearable and putting them in the wardrobe.

He also put small ornaments and storage boxes in the second bedroom, and took out and put away everything that was usable inside, from small items like nail clippers and ear picks to large items like clothes racks and hair dryers.

The moment he finished, Lin Mo looked around and was momentarily dazed.

It was only at this moment that he realized that the strongest reaction to graduation wasn't taking graduation photos, having the last meal together in the dormitory, watching everyone pack their bags and leaving the dormitory empty, or lamenting that he wouldn't be able to see some people often in the future. Rather, it was the inexplicable sense of disconnect created by these familiar items not appearing where they should have been in the dormitory, but instead appearing at home.

No matter how rich the people and events, time will eventually come to an end. He packed four years of his life into a small suitcase and took it home.

The three of them left the dormitory together, and since they lived in the same neighborhood, it wasn't too difficult. On the day they returned, they had to rush to the graduation ceremony, and after the ceremony, they went straight back to Nancheng.

Over the past few days, although he knew he had graduated, he didn't have a clear understanding of it. It wasn't until now, seeing these familiar things at home, that he realized he really couldn't go back, that he had really graduated, and that the so-called start of school would no longer have anything to do with him.

"That's good, that's good!"

Lin Mo muttered a couple of things to himself, then changed his clothes and went out the door.

As an adult, he knew perfectly well that when people experience this kind of emotion, the best thing to do is to go out and talk to someone.

Especially with Chuanmei Wang and class monitor He Xiaoyue around, their presence at least gave them the illusion that they hadn't graduated yet, and gradually they started to feel better.

From pretending not to care, until you really don't care!

Soon, Lin Mo appeared in the studio downstairs, but as soon as he entered through the back door, he witnessed an explosive scene.

There stood Miss Yuan, her back to him, on a chair, wearing a large trench coat that she had opened wide with both hands. In front of her were the class monitor, He Xiaoyue, and Liu Ruyan.

"Hahaha, look how awesome I am!"

The three women in front of her were quite different. Liu Ruyan looked at them openly with a cold smile, the class monitor covered her face and dared not look, and He Xiaoyue also covered her face, but she peeked through the gaps between her fingers.

This scene, how should I put it, is like a perverted scene in a Japanese adult film. If you didn't know better, you'd think Miss Yuan wasn't wearing any clothes underneath and was being indecent!

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was immediately taken aback: "Wow, a new program? Sister Ruyan, how's the scenery?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan gave an OK sign and smiled, "I saw the map of Henan. It really is a strategic location that military strategists must contend for, with flat plains stretching as far as the eye can see."

Lin Mo:

Miss Yuan: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
