Guilongchao: I played the domineering CEO to the bone.

Xiao Lin: Aaaaaaah! He...he...he...he hugged me!?! Is this some kind of prince charming rescuing a princess from a castle?!

Hitomi: Aaaaaaah! He...he...he...he even went after Rin! ? ?

Zhu Sha: Wow~ a new sister?

After leaving Qinmin District and her father, Xiaolin traveled around, either practicing figure skating or burying herself in her studies, and rarely had contact with men.

I've never been this close to Min Moyou before!

Even the figure skating instructors they hired were all female, and Rin's mother strictly controlled her friends on a daily basis—in Rin's mother's view, Rin is now considered a semi-public figure, and issues related to public opinion should be avoided as much as possible.

Min Moyou's charm needs no further explanation, not to mention his empathy for Xiao Lin's plight, which made Xiao Lin develop a great deal of affection for him!

Despite the aggressive and offensive verbal attacks from Xiao Lin's mother, Min Moyou still chose to stand up for her without wavering!

Finally... thanks to Rin's mother's hard work, Rin had no worries about food and clothing, but her life wasn't very wealthy—most of the money went to signing up for various competitions, hiring top-notch teachers, or changing her figure skating equipment and costumes.

It could even be said that with such huge expenses, Rin and her mother lived a rather frugal life.

Today, Min Moyou, in support of her, casually threw out over a billion Jiufang coins, a huge sum that left Xiao Lin completely bewildered!

It's one thing for Xiaolin to be unable to accept it and unable to believe it—she simply doesn't think she has such a high value!

She couldn't help but fantasize that if she had such a sum of money, her mother could finally take a break from her grueling work, and she could finally own the clothes, jewelry, cosmetics, novels, and other things she liked but couldn't afford.

We could even dream of living in a luxury mansion! No more squeezing into that ridiculously expensive, tiny apartment in the Muya District that costs 6000 yuan a month!

Perhaps we could buy a luxury car? Or travel by plane when going out to compete? Or take a soft sleeper on the high-speed rail? That way we wouldn't have to worry about sitting in hard seats for too long and getting back pain that would affect our performance!

Maybe we can buy lots of delicious food? Go out for a fancy meal? That way, Mom won't have to argue until she's red in the face with the vegetable vendors every time she goes grocery shopping for just one or two coins...

The benefits of having money are so numerous that Xiao Lin was so overwhelmed with happiness that she fainted, collapsing nervously and dazedly into Min Moyou's arms.

Although she dared not accept the money—she had no right to interfere in the family's financial affairs—this did not affect her eagerness to repay Min Moyou's kindness with everything she had.

...........

Similarly, Lin's mother was also bewildered by Min Moyou's constant showers of money, but with her rich social experience, she quickly began to consider the possibilities of everything Min Moyou mentioned.

Yes, as someone who has been through it all, how could she not know that an ordinary person's lifelong efforts might not be as valuable as a casual gesture from capital?

When Rin's mother was young, she was a lead dancer in a well-known song and dance troupe. At that time, she did come into contact with a lot of "capital," but she rejected them all because she knew all too well what price she had to pay to come into contact with "capital."

For a long time, she even planned to live alone for the rest of her life, to pursue the highest realm of dance, and to stand at the pinnacle of the dance world.

It wasn't until she passed the peak of her physical flexibility and stamina, and her overall physical condition began to decline, that she began to waver for the first time as she looked at that seemingly unattainable goal.

However, as she ages and loses her beauty, she is no longer sought after and favored by "capital" as she once was, and she no longer has as many choices to make.

At that time, she had only two paths: continue, which might not lead to anything; or give up her dance career and experience a complete life as a woman.

Just then, Rin's father appeared. He was handsome, warm, and humorous. Rin's mother, who was confused about her future, finally succumbed to his charm and gave birth to Rin with that man, thus ending her less-than-perfect career as a dancer.

However, only she knows how unwilling she was—perhaps if she had persisted back then, she could have stood at the pinnacle of the art world and seen the scenery she didn't want to see.

But she also understands that she may not have had enough talent or effort when she was young, and missed too many opportunities, which is why she was unable to reach her goal even during her physical peak.

So she went to great lengths to impose the regrets of her youth onto Xiaolin, hoping to see her daughter achieve the success she herself had aspired to in her youth, thus making up for her own regrets...

But! Rin is different!

Rin's mother quickly snapped out of her reverie—

Xiao Lin possesses potential and talent far exceeding what she had in her youth! Xiao Lin's talent was discovered and nurtured much earlier than it was in her younger days!

Xiao Lin started early too! Under her supervision, she has improved much faster than she did back then!

But what if... there's a powerful financial backer supporting it?

Rin's mother trembled with excitement—

It's simply unimaginable! With all the conditions met, what heights will Rin ultimately reach?!

After a quick and careful consideration, Lin's mother readily accepted Min Moyou's proposal: she would relax her requirements and management of Xiao Lin in exchange for Min Moyou's financial support for Xiao Lin!

This isn't about selling a daughter! This is for Rin's future! Besides, Rin seems to really want to and like him!

Rin's mother still firmly believes that every choice she made for Rin was absolutely correct.

Furthermore... after so many years of hard work, Rin's mother is truly exhausted. All for the sake of Rin having a chance to achieve that goal, she has scrimped and saved, putting the bulk of her expenses on Rin, constantly holding herself to the bone, thinking she could endure hardship herself...

With the sudden arrival of such a large sum of money from Min Moyou, the breath that had been clenched in Lin's mother's heart suddenly deflated—an overwhelming sense of exhaustion and a longing for a better life surged into her mind.

She knew that perhaps from the moment the notification sound of the transfer being completed rang, she could never go back.

...............

Min Moyou's "negotiation" with Rin's mother was very successful. In the end, Rin's mother took Rin back to the hotel first.

Of course, the conflict between the mother and daughter has been resolved by Min Moyou, the tension between them has completely dissipated, and the love they had hidden in their hearts has been boldly and sincerely expressed.

Xiao Lin has been away from home for a while and definitely needs to rest. The grudge between Lin's mother and Xiao Lin needs to be resolved through a heart-to-heart talk. Lin's mother also needs to give Xiao Lin some advice on her views and experiences regarding "capital".

As for whether Rin's mother might take the money and not do the service...

Hehe, Min Moyou has already sent people to investigate—Min Zong's money is not so easy to take.

Alright, that resolves Xiaolin's matter here.

As for what's next...

"Little fox! My dear Zhu Sha sister! Please let go of me, okay? Be good! He's coming over here!!"

Good heavens, how can Zhu Sha's grip be so strong! This director tried everything he could but couldn't break free!

We had no choice but to lower ourselves and whine a little, trying to win over the innocent little fox with our affection.

Generally speaking, as long as the director pleads, Zhu Sha never disagrees!

"No~ good~"

Today is an exception.

"Oh my god, that's your husband! Do you really want your husband to flirt with other women in front of you?! Quick, quick, let go of him! I'll let you hold me while I sleep from now on, my dear Zhu Sha!"

Ahhh, Minmoyou, don't come any closer! Zhusha, let go of this director!

Seeing Min Moyou's approaching footsteps, Tong felt inexplicably panicked and desperately wanted to escape.

"What outsider? He's your husband too! If he lets you go, he'll be angry with him!"

Zhu Sha didn't care that Tong was struggling so much that she was almost biting her hand. She dragged Tong and ran towards Min Moyou in a two-way rush.

Bite me? It won't hurt~

"Besides, if someone wants to hold you while sleeping, they don't need your permission, do they?"

Having said that, she ignored the mischievous Tong and skipped over to Min Moyou, leaping into his arms and taking a deep breath of his chest—

"My dear husband, I miss you so much~"

Tong was also brought to Min Moyou's side, albeit unsteadily.

Min Moyou swept them both into his arms, gently stroking Zhu Sha's large tail and saying indulgently:

"I've missed you for several days."

Then he turned to Tong, who was running rampant in his arms:

"As for you... hehe, this time I won't give you a chance to escape."

"Hey! Think this through! I'm from the Dragon Tide Pavilion! I have Lady Mirage behind me! She's a powerful Gold-Rank Dragon Heir! I advise you to be rational..."

"Dragon Tide Pavilion? If you're really that capable, have Lady Mirage come to me personally and snatch you back!"

"Aaaaah! You lawless wretch! Help! Someone's abducting a young woman! Madam Shen! Madam Shen, can you hear me?! Your hardworking employee is about to be taken away!"

Unfortunately, after Min Moyou entered the Gold Rank, the ability of [Noble Bloodline] was further stimulated. No matter how much Tong shouted, even the passing Zhenlong Division law enforcement officers were unmoved and even subconsciously nodded to Min Moyou.

Min Moyou summoned the entrance to the Dragon Realm, a paradise on earth, and stepped inside with Tong and Zhusha.

What happens next... absence makes the heart grow fonder!
