~5 min read 941 words

Ten minutes later...

The sound of his mother calling for dinner came from outside.

Hearing the sound, Chen Mo opened the bedroom door and came to the living room.

In the living room, Chen Fu was holding a bottle of beer, drinking while watching the World Cup, and Mother Chen was holding Chen Mo's exclusive small bowl and chopsticks, serving him rice.

"Come and sit."

Mother Chen greeted him.

Chen Mo said "oh," then walked to the dining table obediently, climbed onto the chair, and sat down honestly.

After sitting down, Mother Chen started feeding Chen Mo with a spoon.

"Mom, I'll eat by myself..."

Chen Mo refused the feeding, reached out to take the spoon, and started eating big mouthfuls by himself.

Looking at Chen Mo's actions, Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, looking at her son with confusion in her eyes.

A four-year-old child, although he started kindergarten, was usually fed by her; why did he take the initiative to eat by himself today?

Did he become sensible?

Or did he make another mistake?

Mother Chen's heart began to ponder.

Chen Mo didn't notice his mother's gaze; after he finished eating, he got off the chair and ran toward the bedroom.

Arriving at the bedroom door, Chen Mo secretly glanced at the living room, and after confirming that his mom and dad didn't notice him, he walked to the door of his mom and dad's bedroom.

He opened the bedroom door and walked in.

After finding his dad's ID card, Chen Mo quietly returned to his bedroom.

Lying on the bed...

Chen Mo's young face now wore a complex expression that only an adult would have.

His mind couldn't help but recall some things from his past life.

In his past life, in 1992, when he was six, Chen Fu heard the word 'Internet' from his good friend, and after studying it for a while, he made a decision, and later the family went to Los Angeles.

After arriving in Los Angeles, Chen Fu started doing Internet business...

From 1992 to the millennium, in eight years, Chen Fu made the business very big.

At that time, his net worth even exceeded ten million US dollars.

But after the millennium, with the bursting of the Internet economic bubble, his ten-million-dollar net worth evaporated overnight, and he also owed the bank a large sum of money, and the family of three fell from heaven to the bottom...

Since then, his dad began to be depressed...

And he also changed his personality and began to truly mature.

Later, the family moved to the suburbs, his father found a job at a gas station, his mother worked in a restaurant, and he dropped out of school and started working in society.

In those ten-plus years, Chen Mo worked three jobs at most in one day.

Finally, before crossing over, Chen Mo paid off all his external debts and went to Las Vegas to relax, but he didn't expect an accident to happen.

To sum up...

The memories of his past life were all spent working and paying off debts...

So this is why Chen Mo is so eager to earn his first pot of gold!

Poor!

He is really afraid of being poor!

Chen Mo would rather take risks than wait another ten years to achieve something after he grows up!

The night passed without a word.

Early the next morning, Chen Mo finished breakfast, refused his parents' escort, and left home directly.

Because the kindergarten was in the residential complex, and coupled with Chen Mo's personality that even dogs would dislike, Chen Fu and Mother Chen were also at ease with Chen Mo going to kindergarten alone.

Leaving the house, he soon went downstairs...

Standing at the building entrance, Chen Mo looked up at his window, then walked toward the outside of the complex.

Five minutes later...

Chen Mo arrived at the complex gate and happened to see a woman pulling a little girl coming in from outside the complex.

The little girl was none other than Yang Mi, whose skirt was lifted by Chen Mo yesterday.

Yang Mi lived in a complex opposite Chen Mo's house, and she had to cross the road to go to kindergarten every day, so she needed an adult to pick her up.

"Hmph..."

Yang Mi also saw Chen Mo at this moment; she was still angry about this guy lifting her skirt yesterday, so after seeing Chen Mo, she snorted directly and turned her head away.

Chen Mo just smiled at this, then he raised his hand and waved his little hand at Yang Mi, then ran out of the complex.

Seeing Chen Mo run out of the complex, Yang Mi's mouth opened slightly.

The outside is very dangerous; since she was a child, her mother said there are many child thieves outside, and there are so many cars; isn't Chen Mo afraid to run out alone?

Yang Mi thought in her heart...

"What's wrong, Mimi?"

Mother Yang lowered her head at this time and asked in confusion after seeing Yang Mi's expression.

"I... no... nothing..."

Yang Mi shook her head.

"Well, let's go quickly, class is about to start."

Mother Yang said and pulled Yang Mi toward the inside.

Half an hour later.

The kindergarten class bell rang, and the teacher walked in from outside.

After coming in, the teacher looked at the children playing in the classroom and counted the number of people silently...

"Huh, why is one missing?"

A look of confusion appeared on the teacher's face, then she looked carefully again and found that Chen Mo didn't come to school.
