Chapter 395: 146, you are Chen Shanhe, I am Lin Mo!!_8

“`

Chen Shanhe nodded, “That’s true, makes sense. So, in that case, you could also be Lin Mo?”

You wouldn’t have guessed, but I really am.

Li Jinwen found the dark humor appealing and continued, “Yeah, I can of course be Chen Shanhe, or I can be Lin Mo, as long as I master the art of disguise, anyone could be anybody!”

“Haha… interesting, interesting…” Chen Shanhe pointed ahead and said, “So Lin Mo, it’s your turn to buy the steamed buns.”

Li Jinwen turned around and realized it was indeed his turn.

He looked at the food on the stall and called out, “Five meat buns, five vegetable buns, five cups of soy milk, thank you.”

After ordering, Li Jinwen turned to ask, “Shanhe, what would you like to eat?”

Shanhe?

Haha…

I just called him Li Jinwen, so he’s calling me Chen Shanhe?

Quite an interesting guy.

Chen Shanhe chuckled and said, “Lin, are you treating me to breakfast?”

Li Jinwen nodded, “Yeah, we’re all neighbors here, and we might run into each other often. Plus, you’re quite elder, so it’s only right to offer you something to eat.”

“Alright, alright, alright, then I really must accept your gracious offer.” Chen Shanhe looked at the food on the stall and said, “Then… just a cup of eight-treasures porridge, and a vegetable bun will do for me.”

Li Jinwen told the breakfast shop owner his order, then scanned the QR code to pay.

Soon, the owner finished packing the items and handed them over.

Li Jinwen found the eight-treasures porridge and vegetable bun and handed them to Chen Shanhe: “Here you go, Shanhe, your breakfast.”

“Then this old man shall not stand on ceremony,” Chen Shanhe found it amusing as well and took his breakfast, saying, “You bought breakfast for five. Your family is quite large, huh.”

“And, if I remember correctly, during Lin Mo’s live broadcast yesterday, there were five people. I’m almost convinced you are Lin Mo.”

The years of experience had given Li Jinwen a strong composure.

“It’s for six people, my wife, my two kids, and my parents also came over to help me take care of the children. The little ones eat less, one portion is enough for both of them,” Li Jinwen said with a smile.

“Alright, no more chatting for now, I have to hurry back and deliver the breakfast to my family. How about you? Heading back?”

Chen Shanhe shook his head, “No, I have other business to attend to. You go ahead, and once I’m done, I’ll come over to visit.”

“Since you’ve treated me to breakfast, of course, I should return the favor. It’s only proper to reciprocate.”

Li Jinwen and his family were about to board a plane to flee the country, but there was no need to mention such things to a neighbour he had just met.

He nodded, “Haha, sure, I’d definitely welcome that. My dad is retired now too, so he gets quite bored. You should come over whenever, we’d be delighted to have you.”

“Alright, it’s a deal then.”

“Yes, it’s a deal.”

“You’d better go now, the breakfast will get cold. Be careful on your way back and don’t get injured again. And your back, remember to get treatment for it. Don’t think you’re young and it’s nothing; it can easily lead to chronic problems.”

“Sure, I’ll take care. Then, goodbye for now, Shanhe.”

Li Jinwen waved goodbye with a smile.

“Hmm, goodbye.”

Chen Shanhe too waved back smiling.

The two natural adversaries had never expected to meet under these circumstances.

Nor did they expect to have such an enjoyable conversation.

Perhaps, given some time, the two could become close friends despite the age difference.

Unfortunately, there are no ‘what ifs’ in the world.

….

Li Jinwen returned home, and it was already getting late. He saw that everyone had finished packing and were waiting for him in the living room.

Lin Siyu, can’t wait to eat, rushed over and grabbed a bun. She took a bite and said while eating, “Brother, you’re finally back. I would have starved to death otherwise!”

“With all that meat on your bones, if you were on the Titanic, you’d probably outlast the leading lady,” Li Jinwen teased with a roll of his eyes. He then distributed the breakfast to everyone and added, “I’m going to take a quick shower, and after everyone finishes eating, we’ll head out.”

“Do we still have enough time?”

Everyone nodded. Li Jinwen noticed Li Jinwen’s torn sports clothes and asked with concern, “Honey, what happened to your clothes? How did they get torn?”

“`

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Lin Mo took off his tracksuit and tossed it onto the couch, smiling as he explained, “I just grazed against something, my clothes are torn but I’m not hurt.”

“Are you really not hurt?” Li Jinwen followed him into the bedroom and, seeing the abrasion on Lin Mo’s shoulder, said with concern, “You call this not injured? What happened to you, it looks pretty bad.”

“Back when we were fighting against buildings, this kind of injury was just part of the everyday routine, it’s nothing. Go have breakfast. After I take a quick shower, I’ll just spray on some medicine and I’ll be fine.”

Li Jinwen wanted to say more, but Lin Mo had already entered the bathroom.

…..

About ten minutes later, when Lin Mo came out, his family had already finished breakfast and was waiting for him.

Lin Mo’s gaze swept across each person’s face before he finally spoke up, “Are we all set? It’s about time to head out. But we can’t go to the airport together because our numbers and genders are too coincidental, we could easily get checked.”

“Just like yesterday, we’ll divide into two groups and take taxis to the airport.”

“Little sister, brother-in-law, and dad, you three go together.”

“My wife, father-in-law, and I will go as the other group.”

“Once we get to the airport, we’ll check in separately, even if we run into each other, try to act as if we don’t know one another. If anything comes up, we’ll communicate by phone. Everyone got that?”

Everyone nodded.

They were already accustomed to operating this way.

Lin Changshui suddenly grew sentimental, “I hope our family can come back soon. To be honest, I really like Northern Sea City. It’d be nice to retire here in the future.”

“Don’t worry, I believe that fate is fair. We’ll be back soon!” Li Jinshan nodded with confidence before saying, “You three go first, we’ll leave a few minutes later.”

Zhang Li, with luggage on his back, passed by Lin Mo and reminded him, “Bro, be careful!”

Lin Mo patted his shoulder and said, “Yeah, don’t worry, I will. You guys take care too and look after the family.”

“Bro, you can count on me!”

Zhang Li nodded firmly.

“Let’s go.”

“Hmm, take care on the road, in-laws.”

“You too.”

“See you at the airport.”

“See you at the airport.”

The family members said their farewells to each other, and Zhang Li’s group was the first to step out of the door.

Lin Mo and the others stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching them get into a taxi and vanish into the dense traffic flow.

About ten minutes or so later, Lin Mo rose from the sofa and said sentimentally, “Dad, wife, it’s our turn to go.”

“Let’s go.”

“Dad, you didn’t forget to pack anything, did you?”

“No, and even if I did, it doesn’t matter. We can buy anything we need once we’re there.”

“Yeah, dad’s right.”

The party of three took one last glance at the living room and then turned, closing the steel door behind them and stepped into the elevator. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

…

At the same time.

In the main bedroom of the 2101 duplex.

The room had been modified, devoid of normal furniture and home appliances. Instead, it was filled with surveillance screens, almost covering every wall of the living room.

And if one looked closely, they would find that these screens weren’t showing anything else but the airports and train stations of Northern Sea City.

Several staff moved back and forth, performing various controls.

There were also a few observers and recorders, specifically tasked with closely monitoring all the surveillance feeds.

Chen Shanhe sat in the central position of the room, holding a cup of eight treasure porridge Lin Mo had just bought for him, as he stared distantly at the screens, murmuring to himself, “Mr. Lin…”

“The game of cat and mouse has just begun. I hope you don’t get caught too quickly…”

“I’ve only just begun to enjoy myself; it would be such a bore if it ended prematurely.”
