Chapter 3: Re Ba's Little Treasury!

~6 min read 1,139 words

The next day.

At noon, they went to a relatively upscale restaurant.

When asking someone to do something, you should at least show some sincerity.

Lin Mo understood that.

Although, he and Re Ba didn't need to do that.

But today's occasion was a bit special.

He asked Re Ba for a loan, not just a few tens of thousands...

Even Lin Mo himself wasn't sure she could lend him that much money all at once.

Originally, he had arranged to meet Re Ba here at 12:30.

The result...

Re Ba had already arrived, but he hadn't.

So, he pushed open the private room door.

He saw Re Ba playing with her phone.

Lin Mo felt a little embarrassed.

On the contrary, Re Ba didn't show any displeasure; instead, she lifted her head, gazing at him with those gentle eyes, the corners of her mouth curling into a smile, and said with a laugh, "Mo Ge, you're not punctual, you're late!"

"Um... there was a bit of traffic on the way..."

Lin Mo said apologetically.

Indeed, there was a traffic jam on the road.

MD.

He had left 40 minutes early.

The result was a traffic jam halfway.

He only arrived just now.

"I've already ordered the dishes, including your favorite little potatoes~"

Re Ba knew Lin Mo's preferences inside out.

Potatoes, you know.

The favorite of those from Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan.

As for meat...

Before, when Lin Mo and Re Ba went out to eat, he basically never ordered pork dishes, such as braised pork.

After all, Re Ba is an ethnic minority, and eating pork in front of her isn't appropriate.

Of course, she has also told Lin Mo more than once, "It's fine, go ahead and eat; it doesn't bother me."

Not long after.

The dishes were served.

The two ate while chatting.

Re Ba also asked Lin Mo about his ideas for the graduation project.

"Mo Ge, I saw in the group that our classmates in the same major have started preparing to shoot their graduation projects; do you have any plans?"

Upon hearing that, Lin Mo gently put down his chopsticks, smiled, and said, "I'm not in a rush; I still have one semester before graduation."

He wasn't panicked at all.

He was joking.

For him, the graduation project was nothing trivial.

Likewise, Re Ba had a blind admiration for Lin Mo.

She knew Lin Mo's grades.

Then Re Ba brought up another matter: "By the way, Mo Ge, I mentioned you to Mi Jie; she's especially interested in you and even asked me to invite you to join her studio!"

At present, Yang Mi is not yet the future Boss Yang.

She only established her studio the year before last.

She herself is still busy filming.

However, Lin Mo shook his head: "I'll pass, you know I like freedom and don't like being constrained."

After hearing that, Re Ba felt a bit disappointed but nodded understandingly: "Okay..."

Actually, Re Ba wanted to persuade Lin Mo to join Mi Jie's studio so they could see each other more often.

Moreover.

She also knew that Mi Jie intended to start a company.

With Lin Mo's talent, he might even become the company's chief director in the future.

Over the course of that meal, the two ended up eating for a full hour.

During it, they chatted about all sorts of topics.

For example, Re Ba shared with Lin Mo the gossip she had heard after entering the entertainment circle.

And Lin Mo was the perfect listener.

Seeing that they were almost done eating.

Lin Mo then proactively asked, "Shall we order a few more dishes?"

He knew well.

This girl is a total foodie.

Otherwise.

How did the nickname Pang Di come about?

They say you can only get a name wrong, never a nickname.

Her stomach has always been a mystery to Lin Mo.

Mainly, yeah.

She still hasn't gotten fat—tell me, isn't that amazing?

Burp—

No, no. Lately my manager and Mi Jie have been telling me to control my mouth and maintain my figure.

Re Ba let out a burp without any pretense, and her words carried a hint of coquettishness, making her look especially adorably clumsy.

Seeing her so goofy, Lin Mo couldn't help but smile, then he pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth; Re Ba, as if sharing a telepathic bond, leaned in slightly.

Their movements were natural and in sync.

At that moment, the air was filled with a faint sweetness and warmth.

It seemed as if everything around them had become soft.

Um..

"Re Ba, actually I have something I want to trouble you with today..."

Suddenly, Lin Mo became stammering.

After hearing that, Re Ba's smile brightened even more, her big eyes seeming able to see into people's hearts, and she gazed gently at Lin Mo: "What's wrong? If you need any help, just say it."

"Um... I, I want to borrow some money from you."

Re Ba, without any hesitation, asked, "How much? Just tell me directly!"

The tone she used made it seem like borrowing money was just a trivial matter to her.

Lin Mo, caught off guard by this sudden candor, scratched his head: "Um... just borrow as much as you can."

Re Ba, upon hearing that, immediately began to calculate seriously, and after a moment she said cheerfully, "I have over two million on me now; that should be enough, right?"

After saying that, she still worried it might not be enough, and added, "If it's not enough, I'll call Mi Jie and borrow some from her!"

Hearing that.

Lin Mo quickly waved his hand: "That's enough, that's enough, two million is already enough!"

How could such a matter let Re Ba trouble anyone else?

Come to think of it, this was a bit beyond Lin Mo's imagination.

It was supposed to be.

He thought Re Ba only had around a hundred to a few hundred thousand.

He didn't expect this girl's small treasury to actually have so much money.

I guess.

She probably disclosed all her savings.

This left Lin Mo feeling a bit...

But when he thought that investing in "Heartbreak 33 Days" was no different from picking up money.

He thought that after making money later, he could compensate her more.

As for the remaining money.

He would get some from home.

Lin Mo's family is decent; pulling out a hundred to a few hundred thousand shouldn't be a big problem.

It mainly depends on what excuse he finds.

"No problem, I'll transfer it to you in a moment!"

Re Ba agreed cheerfully.

However, she never asked Lin Mo why he needed to borrow money or what he would use it for.

But.

"This feeling is actually quite nice,"

It's something Lin Mo has never experienced before.
