Chapter 88 The annoying little goblin
Mo Jingyu and her group arrived at the playground and saw a group of people gathered on the lawn from afar. As the four of them approached, they were astonished to see several children being fawned over by a group of high school students, looking like little emperors.
One moment the older brother would ask softly, "Are you thirsty?" and the next the older sister would ask gently, "Are you hungry?" Mo Jingyu couldn't help but sigh inwardly at the irresistible attraction that children had for high school students.
"Thank you for the delicious food, brothers and sisters. I really like it." Jiang Yan'an stood up from the crowd, a sweet smile on her face, and bowed deeply to everyone. Her adorable appearance instantly melted the hearts of the surrounding students.
Finally, some classmates standing on the periphery noticed Mo Jingyu and her group of four and made way for them. Mo Jingyu quickly waved her hand, saying with a gentle smile, "No need, no need, you guys continue playing."
Hearing his mother's voice, Jiang Yan'an poked his head out from a pile of school trousers, his eyes lighting up instantly, and shouted, "Mom!"
After shouting, it pulled its head back in. A little while later, several more little heads popped out, and this cute and funny scene made everyone burst into laughter.
The students quickly made way for the children to run past. Mo Jingyu looked around and noticed two people were missing, so she asked, "Where are Ye Ye and your Uncle Ye Shu?"
“Those two went to the restroom over there,” Jiang Yan’an replied obediently.
"Sis, you're here. Gu Shiqing and I are going to play basketball first." Mo Jingyu nodded, waved goodbye to her classmates, sent a message to Ye Shu on her phone, and then prepared to return to her office.
Before returning to the office, Mo Jingyu took Jiang Yan'an back to the dormitory first.
She opened her suitcase and took out a small gift she had prepared. Zhao Momo asked curiously, "Jingyu, what did you give me?"
Mo Jingyu smiled and took out a packet, handing it to Zhao Momo. She explained, "This was prepared by An'an. It contains a small gram of gold, and it's even engraved with 'Passing the Imperial Examination.'"
Zhao Momo's eyes widened in surprise as she exclaimed, "An'an, you're richer than your aunt!"
Jiang Yan'an smiled a little shyly, a blush rising on her face, and said, "This is the pocket money my grandma gave me, and I haven't spent it. I thought I'd give it to my older brother and sister; they would like it. My mom especially loves gold."
Mo Jingyu gently patted Jiang Yan'an's head and sighed, "When people get to a certain age, they just like these gold and silver things."
Holding a toy in his hand, Li Ziang looked at Zhao Momo earnestly and said in a childish voice, "Mommy, if you like it, I'll buy it for you." Zhao Momo's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked in surprise, "Really?" Li Ziang nodded vigorously.
Zhao Momo quickly took out her phone, swiped through the shopping cart, and held the screen up to Li Ziang. "Let's take this one, the little gold bag that's been sitting in your mom's shopping cart for ages."
Li Ziang stared at the price on the screen, counting the zeros one by one with his little finger. After finishing, he frowned.
Busy moments and little incidents in the office
After the fun was over, the office returned to quiet.
The conversation quickly shifted to preparations for the sports meet training. They still had to supervise a class during evening self-study tonight.
Mo Jingyu held a pen in her hand, staring at the blank sheet of paper in front of her, her brows furrowed, her mind a complete blank, unable to come up with any ideas. In the past, when she participated in sports meets, she never made any training plans; she would just familiarize herself with the events in her spare time and then go on the field.
Left with no other option, Mo Jingyu pulled out her phone and asked netizens for help. She posted a message on social media: "[Zhangzui Yuruyi v: Does anyone have a training schedule for the sports meet that I can refer to?]"
[No, but my personal suggestion is that you can ask the students; they must have had their plans from last year, which you can use as a reference.]
[Slap Jade Ruyi v: Good idea.]
[Haha, that's hilarious! Sister Yu has become this lazy.]
[Slapping Jade Ruyi: Sigh↗ I see through it all, but I won't say it, everyone]
Mo Jingyu turned off her phone, her thoughts drifting away. Since she couldn't come up with a plan for the time being, she might as well recall the plot of the original book.
In the original text, Ye Ye did not participate in this variety show, but there was a game competition segment. After the competition, Ye Ye gained some fame, and many clubs offered him contracts.
Ye Shu's brother was initially not in favor of his son pursuing this career, but considering he had a younger brother in the entertainment industry, he didn't strongly object. With Ye Shu's encouragement, he finally agreed to let Ye Ye give it a try.
Ye Ye had always performed quite well in competitions. However, during one Chinese New Year, a relative, whether intentionally or unintentionally, accidentally injured Ye Ye's wrist.
This injury directly prevented Ye Ye from participating in the competition after the new year. It's important to understand that missing this competition means waiting another three years, after which Ye Ye's age advantage will be completely gone. Furthermore, the inability to train during the wrist injury could leave lasting effects, which is practically tantamount to ending Ye Ye's future esports career.
During that time, there was a barrage of criticism online regarding Ye Ye's sudden change of heart, after all, this was a team game. Ye Ye had only recently come of age, and his mental fortitude couldn't withstand such pressure, causing him to fall into a state of emotional distress.
Ye Shu confronted the relative during that time, but the relative dismissed it with a casual "it was an accident." Ye Shu wanted to report it to the police, but she lacked evidence.
Mo Jingyu thought it over carefully and concluded that the relative had done it on purpose.
According to the message X sent, the relative's child also participated in that competition but was defeated by Ye Ye, so he deliberately sought revenge.
That family is quite cunning, making their parents do such a despicable thing; it's utterly disgusting. Mo Jingyu thought to herself, if they're so capable, they should compete fairly and squarely, instead of resorting to these shady dealings.
Just then, Ye Shu walked in through the door. As soon as Ye Shu entered, she plopped down on the coffee table in the office, let out a long sigh, and prepared to rest for a while.
Ye Ye wanted to sit down too, but Jiang Yan'an and the others pulled him away. Mo Jingyu turned around and asked, "What did the director ask you to do?"
Ye Shu picked up her cup, drank the last sip of water, and said, "The director said I'm the supervisor, specifically to oversee your work. Your schedules need to be handed to me before evening self-study ends."
"What a cunning director," Mo Jingyu couldn't help but complain.
Zhao Momo slumped in her chair, looking utterly dejected. "I was thinking of asking our class monitor to help with the planning, and I'd just be the supervisor." Mo Jingyu slid her chair closer to Zhao Momo and said, "The director must have anticipated that we'd slack off, because that's what I was thinking from the beginning too."
The two felt a deep sense of sympathy and embraced each other tenderly.
Seeing this, Lin Yunyuan took two steps back and said, "I really have no ideas. I've been thinking about how our high school PE teacher used to arrange things. By the way, do we still need to write cheering speeches?"
Mo Jingyu nodded and said helplessly, "Yeah, I was tormented by this thing when I was in school, and I still can't escape it now. The motivational speech and that annoying little devil keep me exhausted."
Ye Shu crossed her arms and leaned back on the sofa, saying with a wry smile, "Not only do I have to supervise you all, but the director also wants me to put on a show." Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, then looked at the camera in unison and said, "Director, you'd better protect yourself and stay out of the way."
At this moment, Mo Weiwei looked up from her desk and said, "I know a little bit. If you don't know how, I can help you." Zhao Momo and Lin Yunyuan quickly thanked her and politely declined her offer.
Mo Jingyu slid back to her desk and said, "I'm so sorry, I've gone to so much trouble for you."
"No, it won't happen," Mo Weiwei insisted.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jingyu immediately agreed, "Then I'll leave my encouragement speech to you. Thank you for your hard work."
Mo Weiwei gripped the paper she received tightly, forcing a stiff smile as she nodded in agreement. Ye Shu, sitting on the sofa, nearly burst out laughing; he knew Mo Jingyu all too well—she would never miss an opportunity to slack off.
Mo Weiwei: Still so shameless!
