"stop."
Lin Mo chuckled, "Little Fish, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I'm shocked by your photographic memory. Having a good memory is understandable, but to the extent that you have is truly beyond the comprehension of normal people."
An Youyu's eyes darted around, "It's not that exaggerated, just a little bit better than the average person..."
Lin Shu smiled wryly, "Fish, stop being so modest."
Is he just a little bit better than the average person?
Most people would say they won't take the blame for this!
Lin Mo clicked his tongue. "If Xiaoyuer's analysis is correct, then it means that besides us, there are other people who know the truth. For example, this second VIP room didn't participate in the bidding, but as soon as the extraordinary fruit came out, they immediately made a move. Their purpose is quite obvious."
After saying that, he pressed the bidding button five times in a row.
"Box number one has offered two billion!"
As the auctioneer announced the bid, a bid of two billion appeared on the large screen behind her, following the number one. The countdown at the top of the screen then resumed to three minutes.
In box number two.
Jiang Xiao scoffed at the price, saying, "Speed things up. Things could get complicated if we delay. It's better to finish this quickly."
"correct."
Yan Tianzong nodded in agreement.
Jiang Xiao pressed the bidding button thirty times in a row.
"five billion!"
"Box number two has offered five billion!"
The series of price increases left the VIPs in the other private rooms dazzled.
A fruit of unknown origin was auctioned off for a staggering 5 billion yuan after a sudden price increase of 3 billion yuan.
What happened to this world?
Now they had a new opinion of the people in Box Number Two.
Super idiot!
To others, no matter how powerful the so-called advancement fruit was, it would at most help a martial artist advance one level; such a thing was not worth even five billion, let alone five billion!
At most, it's only worth two or three hundred million!
But now...
They've gone mad, they've all gone mad!
These people thought that 5 billion was the peak, but little did they know that this was just the beginning.
After Box 2 bid 5 billion, Box 18 followed with a bid of 5.5 billion. Soon after, Box 27 bid 6 billion, and then Box 2 raised the price to 7 billion.
It only took about a minute to complete one lap.
The price has increased by another two billion, reaching a terrifying seven billion!
Conversely, Lin Shu and her son Lin Mo, who were in VIP box number one, did not make a move.
The two shared the same goal: the auction for the extraordinary fruit had only just begun, so there was no need to get involved; they could wait until the final hammer fell to decide the outcome.
Lin Mo smiled and said, "Mom, most of the ones who were going to show their faces have already done so. Besides us, there are three other competitors."
Lin Shu remained calm, his words carrying a hint of domineering intent, "No matter how many competitors there are, I'm determined to have this extraordinary fruit!"
"cough--"
Lin Mo put on a flattering look, "Mom, can I talk to you about something?"
Seeing her son like this, Lin Shu instantly guessed what he was up to. "No way!"
Lin Mo was quite surprised. "What kind of mother are you? Can't you at least let your son finish what he has to say?"
Does it matter whether you finish speaking or not?
Lin Shu had already seen through everything. "Isn't what you want this extraordinary fruit?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
"nonsense!"
Lin Shu looked at him with disdain, "I raised you, how could I not know your tricks? I can tolerate other things, but not this extraordinary fruit, it's too important!"
Lin Mo's brow twitched, and a familiar smile appeared on his face. "Mom, I have a suggestion, though it may be immature. Would you like to hear it?"
"If it's not mature enough, then don't say anything."
"..."
"My son has some sound advice; would you like to hear it?"
"Do not listen."
"..."
Lin Mo was speechless, and could only wink at An Youyu beside him.
An Youyu glanced at Lin Shu and quickly shook her head.
Lin Mo's lips twitched. "Help me."
"do not want!"
An Youyu refused again.
She is not stupid.
Clearly, Lin Mo was interested in the extraordinary fruit that was being auctioned, and Lin Shu didn't want to give it up; as an outsider, she had no right to get involved in such matters.
Lin Mo slapped his forehead and decided to just say what was on his mind, "Mom, I know this extraordinary fruit is very important, but we're also competing in the capital right now. If we succeed there, can I have the extraordinary fruit here?"
"Of course, if things don't go well in the capital, I will absolutely not consider taking any extraordinary fruits. What do you think?"
Lin Shu glared at him, "I don't think so!"
"Why?"
"You've only been practicing martial arts for a short time, why are you so keen on extraordinary fruits? Giving this to you would be a complete waste of a precious resource. Forget about this extraordinary fruit."
"I didn't say I wanted to eat it..."
Lin Mo muttered something and sighed helplessly.
Just as he was about to give up, Lin Shu raised an eyebrow, "You're not going to eat?"
"Of course I won't eat it."
Lin Mo spread his hands, "Mom, extraordinary fruits are rare treasures that can help a level 10 martial artist advance to the next level. The energy they contain must be extremely terrifying. Didn't you say before that a level 10 martial artist only ate half of an extraordinary fruit and ended up exploding and dying?"
"If even a level ten martial artist is like this, how dare I, a martial arts novice, covet such a treasure? My son values his life very much."
Lin Shu became interested, "What would you do with the extraordinary fruit if you weren't going to eat it?"
"Giving it away."
"..."
After a brief silence, Lin Shu suddenly erupted, "You spendthrift! Do you know how important the Extraordinary Fruit is? If used properly, it can create an extraordinary expert, and you actually told me to give it away? You bastard..."
"Mom, I was born of you. If you call me a bastard, aren't you just insulting yourself?"
Lin Shu, her face flushed, rolled up her sleeves and said coldly, "If I don't beat you to death today, I'll take your surname!"
An Youyu blinked rapidly, glancing at Lin Shu and then at Lin Mo. "Um... don't Auntie and Lin Mo both have the surname Lin? This sentence seems grammatically incorrect."
Lin Shu: "..."
Chapter 278 I'm Going to Kill You
Distracted by the girl, Lin Shu's anger subsided considerably, and she asked irritably, "Xiao Mo, who are you planning to give it to?"
"Master."
Lin Mo told him the truth.
Lin Shu looked surprised. "Oh? What are you thinking?"
Lin Mo's smile was very sincere. "Mom, although your son has good talent in martial arts, no matter how good the talent is, it takes time to accumulate. In a short period of time, it is impossible for me to reach the level of a top master."
"As the saying goes, it's good to take shelter under a big tree. Master is already a top expert among top experts. If he takes the extraordinary fruit, he will most likely be able to break through his current level and reach the legendary extraordinary realm."
"Once Master reaches the Transcendent Realm, who will dare to provoke me? Even if I return to the family then, with Master, a Transcendent expert, around, those people in the family won't dare to resort to underhanded tricks. At most, they'll make things difficult for me openly. Don't you agree?"
After listening to her son's words, Lin Shu's eyes narrowed. "Xiao Mo, who told you all this?"
As she spoke, her gaze drifted toward An Youyu.
The cliff will definitely not tell you; the only possibility is An Youyu.
Seeing Lin Shu looking at her, An Youyu hurriedly shook her head, "Auntie, I didn't say these things to Lin Mo, I swear."
As she spoke, she raised her right hand.
Lin Mo's laughter followed, "I didn't expect even Xiaoyuer knew some things. So you were just keeping it from me, huh?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Shu immediately realized that this matter had nothing to do with the girl, and the doubt in her eyes grew deeper. "Xiao Mo, are you just guessing all of this?"
"if not?"
Lin Mo shrugged. "These aren't hard to guess."
"Not hard to guess?"
Lin Shu's expression was subtle. "Then tell me, what else did you guess?"
Lin Mo picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip without rushing. "You had almost no contact with your maternal grandfather before, which shows that your relationship with him was rather strained."
"Not long ago, you called your grandfather while having dinner to ask him for body shaping cream for your son. The conversation indirectly proved that your strained relationship had disappeared. This change in relationship must have been due to a heart-to-heart talk between the two of you. And heart-to-heart talks are obviously not appropriate over the phone. That means that you and your grandfather must have met recently."
"Now that we've met, my grandfather will definitely want to take you home..."
Lin Shu said expressionlessly, "Why would your grandfather necessarily want to bring Mom home? That's just a completely unfounded guess."
"It is indeed a conjecture, but it is based on an analysis of human nature."
