Chapter 6

He saw that the door was already open, with two police officers from the station standing there, and beside them were Chen Fu, Chen Mu, and the young lady from the hotel front desk.

"Mo Mo! Woo woo..."

In the next second, Chen Mu rushed in, then pulled Chen Mo tightly into her arms and began to cry.

Chen Fu also walked in quickly, cursing: "You little rascal! I'm going to beat you to death today! You still dare to run away from home!"

However, just as he finished speaking, Chen Mu, holding Chen Mo, turned her head, her almond-shaped eyes full of tears glaring at Chen Fu as if to eat him.

"You beat him! If it weren't for you always beating Mo Mo, would he have run away from home! From now on, if you dare to touch a finger of Mo Mo's, I'll divorce you!"

Chen Mu shouted angrily.

Hearing Chen Mu's words, Chen Fu shrank his neck.

His words just now were just spoken instinctively; now that he had finally found his son, how could he possibly beat him again?

After scolding Chen Fu, Chen Mu ignored him and continued to cry while holding Chen Mo.

Half an hour later...

The two police officers and the young lady from the hotel front desk left the luxury single room; at this moment, only the family of three was left in the room.

Chen Mu's emotions had calmed down, but she still held Chen Mo tightly with teary eyes, as if afraid that Chen Mo would disappear before her eyes in the next second.

And Chen Fu stood to the side, lighting a cigarette and smoking silently.

"Smoking... you only know how to smoke; hurry up and get something to eat. We don't know how Mo Mo has been getting by these days; look at how hungry Mo Mo is, he's even gotten thinner and darker."

Chen Mu glared at Chen Fu and said.

"Okay, okay..."

Chen Fu nodded and turned to leave.

However, a glance at his son's appearance made him pause.

Not having seen him for a few days, Chen Fu felt that his son didn't seem to have gotten thinner, but rather looked a bit fatter, and his skin seemed to have gotten fairer!

Although this kid was already likable before, he looked even cuter now than before.

Was it an illusion?

A look of doubt appeared on Chen Fu's face.

Chen Mu also noticed that Chen Mo seemed to have gotten a bit fatter than before.

"Eh, Mo Mo, have you gained weight?"

Chen Mu said.

Chen Mo chuckled after hearing this.

For the past ten days or so, he had been staying in the hotel room, eating and living well, and coupled with the gradual optimization of his top-tier appearance, he looked much better than before.

Chen Mo explained: "Hehe, Mom, I've been eating very well; every day I just eat until I'm full and sleep, and when I wake up, I eat..."

Hearing Chen Mo's words, Chen Fu and Chen Mu both frowned.

They had checked at home; except for Chen Fu's ID card being taken by Chen Mo, not a single cent of money had been moved...

So where did Chen Mo get the money?

"Mo Mo, where did you get the money?"

Chen Mu asked softly.

Chen Mo told the story he had organized: "I saved some of the pocket money you and Dad gave me, and then when I ran out of money, I was walking on the road and saw an uncle holding a piece of paper and exchanging it for money at a small shop, so I went over and exchanged it too."

"Exchanged money?"

Chen Fu and Chen Mu were both stunned.

"Yeah... I exchanged a lot, a lot of money."

Chen Mo nodded.

Then he got out of Chen Mu's arms, jumped off the bed, and pulled open the drawer of the bedside table...

Immediately, stacks of hundred-yuan bills appeared in the sight of Chen Fu and Chen Mu.

"Hiss..."

Chen Mu and Chen Fu looked at the stacks of hundred-yuan bills, their eyes widening, and then they looked at each other.

Chen Mo looked at the couple stunned there, and a faint sense of showing off appeared in his heart.

Then he took out the six lottery tickets for the semifinals he had bought from his pocket and said: "But I have to use this to exchange for money, but some wouldn't exchange for me, and some did."

Looking at the six lottery tickets Chen Mo took out...

Although Chen Fu and Chen Mu had never been to Guangdong, they knew that Guangdong had things like lottery tickets.

Chen Fu walked to Chen Mo first, reached out to take the six lottery tickets from Chen Mo's hand, and then looked at them carefully.

Seeing that two thousand yuan was bet on each one, his brows furrowed slightly.

And just at this moment...

The voice of the sports news anchor came from the TV in the room...

"In today's World Cup semifinals, Argentina defeated Italy in a penalty shootout 5-4, and the other team, former West Germany, defeated England with the same score, entering the final..."

Listening to the anchor's voice...

Chen Fu looked at the lottery tickets in his hand with some disbelief, then turned his head to look at Chen Mo, who had a bright smile on his face...

For a moment, Chen Fu was actually stunned there.

An hour later...

Chen Mo fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

Looking at his sleeping son, Chen Mu's eyes were full of tenderness and heartache.

After looking for a long time, she reluctantly moved her gaze away from her son, and then her gaze fell on Chen Fu, who was sitting on a chair not far away, holding the lottery tickets and wondering what he was thinking.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Mu asked with her delicate brows slightly furrowed.

Hearing Chen Mu's words, Chen Fu raised his head and looked at her.

"Wife... our family... seems to be about to get rich."

Chen Fu said hesitantly.

"Hmm?"

Chen Mu was stunned, then walked to Chen Fu and reached out to take the five lottery tickets.

"Did these six all win?"

Chen Mu asked with doubt.

"No... only these two won, and there's another one for the final; we have to wait until tomorrow to know if it won."

Chen Fu pointed to two of them and said.

"Then how much money can it win?"

Chen Mu asked.

Chen Fu shook his head after hearing this.

He didn't know much about this, so naturally, he didn't know how much it could win, but in his view, since his son could win so much money in the group stage and quarterfinals, this win would definitely not be small.

"I'll go to the lottery station tomorrow morning and ask..."

Chen Fu said.

Hearing Chen Fu's words, Chen Mu nodded.

Then she yawned tiredly.

She hadn't had a good night's sleep in the dozen days she had been looking for her son.

"Alright, go open a room for yourself and get some rest; I'll sleep with our son tonight."

Chen Mu waved her hand and drove Chen Fu away.

Chen Fu: "..."

The next day.

Early in the morning, Chen Fu left the hotel and headed straight to the nearest lottery station...

Two thousand yuan was bet on the two semifinals...
