Chapter 197

~7 min read 1,339 words

Soon, it was evening.

Because the school dormitory had a bed check, Chen Mo sent Yang Mi back to school.

Then Chen Mo took a car back home.

After arriving home, Chen Mo saw Chen Fu, Chen Mu, and his grandparents sitting at the dining table eating.

"I'm back."

Chen Mo called out with a smile.

As he spoke, he leaned behind Chen Fu, grabbed his head with both hands, and rubbed it.

"Dad, you've worked hard, let me rub it for you."

Chen Fu: "..."

Just as Chen Fu was about to explode, Chen Mo had already let go, stepped back a few steps, and sat down beside his grandmother.

"You brat, what kind of sickness are you having again?"

Chen Mu rolled her eyes at Chen Mo and said.

Chen Mo chuckled.

Then his mind stirred, and he started the lottery.

【Ding! Lottery successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining Stamina +5】

【Ding! Lottery successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining Strength +10】

【Ding! Lottery successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining Top-tier Acting Skills.】

【Ding! Lottery successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining Advanced Parkour Ability.】

Opposite him, Huang Bo also hurriedly extended his hand and said, "Hello, Teacher Chen Mo."

Hearing the last reward, Chen Mo's mouth twitched immediately.

Is this tongue flexibility decent?

Although the last reward was a bit strange, the other rewards made Chen Mo very excited.

Top-tier acting skills were exactly what he needed!

Stamina and strength go without saying.

As for advanced parkour, although he didn't need it right now, he might use it when filming in the future!

Sure enough, Old Chen is the chosen one!

This thought was confirmed once again by Chen Mo!

"You brat, I found you a bodyguard today, bring a bodyguard when you go out from now on."

At this moment, Chen Fu suddenly said.

Ever since the incident in Los Angeles, both Chen Fu and Chen Mu had planned to find a new bodyguard for Chen Mo, and it just so happened that they found a suitable person a few days ago.

"Oh, okay."

Hearing Chen Fu's words, Chen Mo didn't object and nodded directly.

If he had a bodyguard last time, he wouldn't have had to take risks himself; having a bodyguard by his side was a must.

"Right, the bodyguard is your Uncle Zhou's son, named Zhou Guotao."

Chen Fu said again.

Chen Mo said with some surprise, "Following in his father's footsteps? Is this nepotism?"

"What kind of nonsense is that? Your Uncle Zhou's son is also a veteran from the army, and I heard he was in the special forces. I don't know what the unit was called because it's classified. I heard from your Uncle Zhou that Guotao participated in several operations and was injured while covering his teammates at the border, and after the injury, he couldn't keep up with the daily training, so he retired."

"Although he was injured, generally ten or so people can't get close to him. If he has a weapon in his hand, he could take you all the way to Japan."

Chen Fu's last sentence was a joke.

After hearing Chen Fu's words, Chen Mo became curious about this Zhou Guotao.

Half an hour later.

After finishing dinner, Chen Mo greeted his family and went upstairs.

The next day, Chen Mo got up from bed.

After going downstairs to have breakfast, Chen Mo drove to the company.

After arriving at the company and reaching the first floor, Chen Mo saw his little assistant, Xu Xiaofeng, chatting with a man around thirty years old who had slightly dark skin, a sturdy build, ordinary looks, and a buzz cut.

The man looked very similar to Chen Mo's previous bodyguard, Uncle Zhou Baoguo. Perhaps because he came from the army, he looked shy while chatting with Xu Xiaofeng.

"Brother Mo."

Seeing Chen Mo enter, Xu Xiaofeng hurriedly walked over and lowered her head to call out.

The young man also walked over. Because he was older than Chen Mo, but Xu Xiaofeng called Chen Mo "Brother Mo," the man didn't know how to address Chen Mo.

Chen Mo smiled and replied to Xu Xiaofeng, then looked at Zhou Guotao and smiled, "Brother Guotao, right? You're older than me, just call me Chen Mo."

As he spoke, Chen Mo extended his hand.

Zhou Guotao smiled after hearing this, extended his hand, and said, "Alright then, I'll call you Chen Mo, and you just call me Guotao."

As their hands gripped together, Chen Mo felt that Chen Guotao's palms had many calluses, especially on the web of his thumb, where the calluses were thicker, which looked like it was caused by frequently holding a gun.

"You are Uncle Zhou's son. Uncle Zhou has been protecting me by my side all these years. I treat Uncle Zhou as my own uncle, so it's only right that I call you brother."

Chen Mo let go and said with a smile.

After finishing, without waiting for Zhou Guotao to say anything else, he said to Xu Xiaofeng beside him, "Xiaofeng, you take Brother Guotao to buy a few sets of clothes, let Brother Guotao choose for himself, whatever is comfortable. Then go to a car dealership and look around, pick a car. I need to use the car, and Brother Guotao will be responsible for driving. Pick one that's safe and strong. I'll transfer the money to you later."

"Okay, Brother Mo."

Xu Xiaofeng hurriedly agreed.

"Brother Guotao, you go with Xiaofeng. I'll stay at the company for a while. Just come find me at the company when you're done."

"Mm, okay."

Zhou Guotao nodded.

Then Xu Xiaofeng took Zhou Guotao and left the company, while Chen Mo took the elevator upstairs.

First, he went to Chen Fu's office, had Chen Fu approve a sum of money to be sent to Xu Xiaofeng's account, and then Chen Mo went to Wang Jinghua's office.

Arriving at the door of Wang Jinghua's office, Chen Mo raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

A voice came from inside.

Hearing the voice, Chen Mo pushed the door open and walked in.

"Mo is here, sit."

Wang Jinghua smiled and stood up.

Chen Mo smiled and called out "Sister Wang," then walked to the chair opposite Wang Jinghua and sat down.

After sitting down, Chen Mo said, "Sister Wang, how are those nine girls kidnapped from Korea doing?"

Hearing Chen Mo use the words "kidnapped" and "nine," Wang Jinghua first rolled her eyes at Chen Mo, then replied, "They are still practicing. The main issue is that their Mandarin isn't very good yet. They won't debut until at least next year or the year after."

Chen Mo nodded after hearing this.

In his previous life, the Girls' Generation girl group didn't debut until 2007.

Two years later will be 2007, so it's not too late.

"Has the company signed any new talent with potential recently?"

Chen Mo asked again.

"There is one... I think the potential is very good."

"Oh? Who?"

Chen Mo asked.

"An actor in 'Crazy Stone,' named Huang Bo. Don't look at his ugly appearance, but I've seen his potential, and it's very good. He should be able to become a solid actor in the future."

Wang Jinghua said.

Chen Mo nodded after hearing this.

"Oh, right, do you have anything on tonight?"

At this moment, Wang Jinghua thought of something and asked.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Chen Mo asked with confusion.

"There's a charity gala tonight. I had originally sent you an invitation, but I rejected it because you were filming 'Crank' at the time. Since you're back, you should go and attend. Now that you're famous, you can't just focus on development; you need to build a golden reputation."

Wang Jinghua said.

Hearing Wang Jinghua's words, Chen Mo pondered for a moment and then nodded.

He had always been thinking about making money and development, but he had forgotten about charity.

This thing is the golden reputation!
