"Hello, my name is Gu Changfeng, Gu Fan's father."

Gu Changfeng smiled gently, "I often hear Xiaofan mention you. Recently, Xiaofan has become unusually enthusiastic about studying. It must be because of your influence, right?"

"Uncle, you flatter me."

Lin Mo smiled modestly, "Gu Fan's love of learning has little to do with me; it's mainly because he's figured it out."

"How can it not matter much?"

Gu Fan didn't quite like Lin Mo's modesty and half-jokingly said, "Brother Mo, you've gone to such lengths to pursue An Youyu, that kind of spirit is so rare and precious!"

"I need to work hard so that I can meet great girls in the future!"

Lin Mo kicked Gu Fan in an annoyance, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever pursue... An Youyu?"

"cut--"

Gu Fan curled his lip. "We're all men, so stop pretending. Everyone knows each other, right?"

Gu Changfeng was not interested in the conversations of the young people.

He doesn't care about the process, only the result.

My son has developed an interest in learning, and he is very satisfied with the result.

"Perfect timing, I haven't been home in a long time, let me take you out for a nice meal."

"Thank you, Uncle."

……

If Lin Mo were to describe this meal, there would only be one word.

Cool!

If we disregard his previous life, this meal was definitely the most luxurious feast he had ever eaten.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

After finishing a test paper, Lin Mo glanced at Gu Fan, who was reading on the bed, and quietly left the bedroom.

Upon arriving in the living room, he saw Gu Changfeng on the phone, so he didn't disturb him and quietly sat down opposite him.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, Gu Changfeng hung up the phone and looked at Lin Mo on the other end with surprise, "Did you need something?"

"There is something."

Lin Mo nodded in agreement and then recounted how Gu Fan had stolen money to buy stocks.

After hearing this, Gu Changfeng's face instantly darkened. "That brat..."

"Uncle, please don't be angry."

Lin Mo smiled apologetically, "Actually, I also bear some responsibility for this. If I hadn't let Gu Fan taste the benefits before, he definitely wouldn't have dared to do that. I was also at fault."

Gu Changfeng stared at Lin Mo for a long time with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

Lin Mo met his gaze, a calm and serene smile always on his face.

Gu Changfeng placed his hands on his knees and slowly withdrew his gaze. Having worked in the business world for so many years, he had seen all sorts of people, but he could never see through the young man in front of him.

"Lin Mo, there's something I don't understand. Could you explain it to your uncle?"

"Uncle, please ask away. I will answer whatever I know."

"Since you've already lent money to Xiaofan to cover his losses, why are you complaining to me now?"

Gu Changfeng's eyes gleamed with amusement. "Given your relationship with Xiao Fan, you should have kept it from me as much as possible."

Upon hearing this question, Lin Mo revealed a malicious smile, "Uncle, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Of course it's the truth."

Lin Mo turned his head and glanced towards the bedroom. After confirming that Gu Fan hadn't come out, he whispered, "The reason I told Uncle about this is because... I wanted to see Gu Fan get beaten up."

Gu Changfeng: "..."

Chapter 105 Are you a devil?

"why?"

Gu Changfeng remained silent for several seconds, but ultimately could not suppress the doubts in his heart.

Seeing his puzzled expression, Lin Mo smiled frankly: "Uncle, wrongdoing must be punished. Some mistakes can be made up for, but others cannot. This matter cannot be tolerated; he must learn a lesson."

Gu Changfeng asked with great interest, "Aren't you afraid that doing this will affect your relationship with Xiaofan?"

"afraid?"

Lin Mo laughed and countered, "Why should I be afraid?"

Why aren't you afraid?

Meeting Gu Changfeng's ambiguous gaze, Lin Mo shrugged. "Helping him is a matter of brotherhood, and exposing him is also a matter of brotherhood; in short, I just want him to be better."

Upon hearing this explanation, Gu Changfeng burst into laughter. "Interesting. It's rare to see such an interesting young man. This rascal may not be good at much else, but his ability to make friends is quite good."

"When are you going to let me beat up Xiao Fan?"

"The sooner the better."

As soon as Lin Mo uttered those four words, he saw Gu Fan swaying into the living room and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Uncle, he's here."

Gu Fan walked towards the two of them with a puzzled look on his face. "Dad, what are you and Mo talking about? I rarely see you smiling so happily."

"Nothing to talk about."

Gu Changfeng said casually, "We just talked about some things related to beating you up."

Gu Fan didn't take these words to heart at all, thinking his father was just joking with him. He took the initiative to ask for credit, saying, "Son, I've been studying so hard lately, are you going to beat me? Giving me some reward would be more like it."

How did you know I was going to give you a reward?

Gu Changfeng looked surprised. "I did have that idea."

Gu Fan had only said it casually, but he didn't expect his father to react like that, and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Really?"

"of course."

Throughout, Gu Changfeng showed no unusual expression. "What reward do you want?"

Gu Fan chuckled, "Um... my son's a little short on cash lately, could you give him some pocket money?"

"Money? No problem."

Gu Changfeng got up and went upstairs. In less than a minute, he returned to the living room with 20,000 yuan in cash. "Here, this 20,000 yuan is for you."

Gu Fan grinned from ear to ear, "Thank you, Dad."

These 20,000 yuan were the same 20,000 yuan that Lin Mo had lent him. He never expected that it would end up back in his hands, and he could return it to Lin Mo.

Thinking of this, he secretly winked at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo's lips curled up slightly.

Laugh!

Wait a minute, he's going to cry...

Gu Changfeng placed the 20,000 yuan on the coffee table, stood up, and went to his son. "The reward has been given. Now, shouldn't we talk about the punishment?"

"punish?"

Gu Fan looked slightly taken aback. "What punishment?"

Gu Changfeng squinted. "Of course, it's your punishment for stealing money. One thousand yuan for one slap, twenty thousand yuan for exactly twenty slaps. Don't worry, Dad won't hit your face, he'll spank your bottom."

"..."

Gu Fan was stunned for more than ten seconds before he finally reacted. "Dad, what are you talking about? When did I steal money? Is there any money missing from the house?"

Faced with his son's feigned ignorance, Gu Changfeng glared at him and coldly reprimanded, "Don't try to evade the issue. If I wasn't sure, would I say that?"

Gu Fan shrank back, grabbed his hair with both hands, and muttered, "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that this guy secretly installed a camera in the house?"

Lin Mo, who was just watching the show, burst out laughing.

Gu Changfeng's face darkened, and his voice grew even colder, "What did you just call me?"

"cough!"

Gu Fan realized his slip of the tongue and quickly apologized with a smile, "Dad, you should know very well how much money we had before you went on your business trip; you must have made a mistake."

Gu Changfeng said with a stern face, "You're not mistaken, I'm sure you stole the money."

"How are you sure?"

"I reported it."

Lin Mo raised his hand and admitted the truth.

Gu Fan was completely dumbfounded, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. "Brother Mo, what... what did you just say?"

Lin Mo grinned, "I've already told your uncle everything about you stealing money to buy stocks; it's no use trying to deny it now. Get ready, you're about to get a beating."

Gu Fan: "..."

After thinking it over and over, he still couldn't accept this fact.

In his view, Lin Mo had no reason to do that!

"Why are you so stunned?"

Gu Changfeng kicked his son in annoyance and pointed to the sofa, "Climb up there. If I don't give you a beating, how will you learn your lesson? You're so young and you're already stealing money to buy stocks. Why don't you just fly to the moon?"

Gu Fan, unwilling to give up, turned to stare at Lin Mo, "We're brothers, why did you do this?"

Lin Mo smiled maliciously, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Nonsense! Of course we'll listen to the truth!"

"The truth is..."

Lin Mo paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Whenever I do something wrong, my mom beats me; so I want you to get beaten too, isn't that what brothers are all about, sharing joys and sorrows?"
