"I really didn't mean to lie to you."
"Still being stubborn, huh?"
Lin Xue put her hands on her hips and said, "You just said you have a lot of studies to do, are you going to say that the bet is off now?"
"No."
"Then what do you want to say?"
Hearing Lin Xue's question, Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just let her speak."
He suppressed his smile and became extremely serious. "I do rarely go to the classroom, but that doesn't mean I'm idle all day. Since you've investigated me, you should know that I own a company called Cuttlefish Technology in the capital."
Lin Xue replied calmly, "I know."
Lin Mo clapped his hands. "Sister, Moyu Technology is just starting out. We're facing a lot of difficulties right now, and there are too many things that I need to do myself. If I have to help you with your work every day, to be honest, I won't even have time to date Xiaoyuer."
"This is probably not the outcome you wanted, is it? After all, the faster my relationship with Xiaoyuer develops, the faster you can hold our child."
Lin Xue gave a half-smile. "So? Go on."
Lin Mo chuckled, "I definitely won't renege on my debt, but we can choose a compromise."
"A compromise?"
Lin Xue walked to the stone table next to her and sat down, lazily crossing her long legs. "Tell me about it."
Lin Mo sat down opposite her. "The compromise is quite simple: the family's work can be handed over to me, but I won't do it myself. Can I find someone else to do it?"
"Find someone to do it?"
Lin Xue guessed, "The person you're talking about wouldn't happen to be Yu'er, would it?"
"Of course it's not her."
"Who is that?"
“My partner at Cuttlefish Technology is named Bi Yan. He is very capable, and I can absolutely trust him with the work in the family.”
Upon learning of Lin Mo's so-called compromise, Lin Xue rolled her eyes, tapped the table, and said in a tone full of warning, "Family work, especially work involving financial approvals, you're entrusting it to an outsider, and you expect me to feel at ease? Tell me, how can I feel at ease?"
"If something goes wrong, can you take responsibility?"
"Sister, you have to trust my judgment of people."
Lin Mo smiled confidently, "I can assure you that if any mistakes occur at work, I will personally cover the losses. I won't take any money from home. How about that?"
Lin Xue exclaimed, "Xiao Mo, you're pretty confident, aren't you?"
"A person who lacks self-confidence will ultimately achieve nothing."
Although Lin Mo's tone was light, his brows revealed an air of domineering confidence.
Seeing his spirited appearance, Lin Xue's eyes lit up. She nodded slightly, a hint of admiration in her eyes. "To be honest, it's really hard to find a young person more outstanding than you at your age."
As she spoke, she patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, "Since you've brought it up, I'll naturally give you face. Okay, let's do as you say."
"Let me make this clear from the start: if any losses occur, you'd better keep your word and not take any money from home. You'll have to cover the losses yourself."
"It must be."
Seeing that Lin Xue had accepted his suggestion, Lin Mo immediately gave his assurance.
After saying that, seeing that Lin Xue didn't seem to be leaving, he tentatively asked, "Sister, are you going to practice martial arts next? Or, I can make room for you?"
"Practice my ass!"
Lin Xue's tone was clearly resentful, "My martial arts talent is too poor. No matter how much I practice, I can't catch up with someone like you who has only average martial arts talent."
Lin Mo gave an awkward smile. "You still remember what happened last night? I was just joking with you, why did you take it so seriously?"
"Alright, enough of that nonsense. Do you remember our agreement from last night?"
"What agreement?"
Lin Xue noticed Lin Mo's blank expression and was furious. "A challenge!"
"oh oh!"
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow with a strange expression. "Sis, are you sure you want to fight me? It's not that I look down on you, it's just that the difference in our strength is too great. There's no point in forcing a fight. In my opinion, let's just forget about it."
"We can't let it go!"
Lin Xue's firm stance left Lin Mo feeling helpless. "Do you really want to take action?"
"Correct!"
"Alright, I'll give you a handicap with one hand."
After saying this, Lin Mo put his right hand behind his back and slowly raised his left hand, looking every bit the part of a hermit master.
Lin Xue's eyes held amusement. "Xiao Mo, I only challenged you to a duel, but I didn't intend to fight you personally."
Lin Mo's eyes widened instantly, sensing something was wrong, and he hurriedly said, "Sis, does what you're saying mean you want someone to play for you? No way, that's definitely not allowed!"
"You can't do it if you say no?"
Lin Xue smiled smugly, "Xiao Mo, I am your elder. As a junior, do you have the right to bargain with me?"
"I……"
"Lin Geng!"
Lin Xue didn't give Lin Mo a chance to refuse. With a cold shout, a dark shadow flashed across the training ground.
The next second, a man in his thirties appeared behind Lin Xue, with a resolute face and dressed in a tight-fitting outfit.
Lin Mo could sense this person's extraordinary nature just from his aura.
Lin Xue pointed at Lin Mo and casually gave the order, "Lin Geng, give this kid a beating!"
Lin Geng glanced at Lin Mo cautiously, inwardly groaning.
When he received the message from the second young lady this morning, he only knew that she wanted him to help beat someone up. He never expected that the person would be the young master.
This is going to kill him!
"Second Miss, this...this might not be appropriate."
"What's wrong?"
Lin Geng clasped his hands in a fist salute, swallowing hard. “Second Miss, you are also a martial artist, so you should know that it is easy to get injured in a martial arts spar. If I accidentally injure the young master while sparring with him, not to mention the head of the family and his wife, even the eldest young lady will probably skin me alive. I beg you, Second Miss, to be merciful.”
Lin Xue stood up, turned around and looked at Lin Geng behind her, her face dark as she said, "Aren't you afraid of offending Sister Shu, but not afraid of offending me?"
"I……"
Lin Geng was on the verge of tears. Faced with this situation, he could only secretly give Lin Mo a pleading look.
Lin Mo clicked her tongue and spoke up to help out, "Sister Xue, please don't make things difficult for them."
"shut up!"
After giving a light rebuke, Lin Xue stared at Lin Geng with a threatening look on her face, "Let me tell you, I am now in charge of distributing the monthly salaries of the Lin family's martial artists. If you do not obey my orders, be careful I may deduct your monthly salary."
"No, no, no!"
Upon hearing that his monthly salary was to be deducted, Lin Geng's face instantly turned sour, and he pitifully pleaded, "Second Miss, I'm counting on my monthly salary to cultivate. If you deduct my monthly salary, my cultivation progress will definitely be greatly reduced."
"If you don't want your monthly salary deducted, then do as I say."
Lin Xue rolled her eyes at Lin Geng, "If the sky falls, someone taller will hold it up. I'll handle Sister Shu's situation. What are you afraid of?"
"Okay, I promise you, after you beat up Lin Mo, no one will bother you. I'll take full responsibility. Is that alright?"
After receiving Lin Xue's assurance, Lin Geng's expression improved somewhat, but he was still a little uneasy and couldn't help but ask to confirm, "Is Second Miss really telling the truth?"
"really."
"it is good!"
Having been forced into this situation, Lin Geng understood that he had no other choice. He clasped his hands together and gave Lin Mo an apologetic smile, "Young Master, as you can see, I don't want to fight you either. If you have any grievances, go find the Second Miss. Please don't make things difficult for a working-class person like me."
Lin Mo waved his hand, "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you, but I have one request."
Lin Geng was taken aback. "What are your requirements?"
Lin Mo leisurely poured himself a glass of water, showing no sign of panic on his face, not at all like someone about to be beaten up.
In fact, he really didn't want to get beaten up. After calmly taking a sip of water, he suggested with a smile, "Don't hold back when we spar later."
Lin Geng: "?"
What!
No holding back?
This……
What do you mean?
Not to mention Lin Geng, even Lin Xue's eyes widened when she heard Lin Mo's request.
She stared at Lin Mo for a long time before finally managing to utter a sentence.
"Xiao Mo, are you crazy?"
Chapter 770 Second Miss, what do you want me to do? What do you want~~~
"Xiao Mo, are you crazy?"
Lin Mo wasn't surprised by Lin Xue's reaction. He chuckled and explained, "Sis, you've already hired someone to beat me up, can't I even lash out once?"
"Get out of here!"
Lin Xue glared at her and retorted irritably, "I can hire someone to beat you up, but who gave you permission to go crazy? Do you know how strong Lin Geng is?"
"If he didn't hold back, he could cripple you in one move!"
Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled bitterly, "You crippled me in one move? Sister, am I really that worthless in your eyes?"
"You don't believe it, do you?"
Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, Lin Xue guessed what he was thinking, shook her head helplessly, and gave Lin Geng a look.
Lin Geng understood and stepped forward, saying, "Young Master, although the Second Miss's words were somewhat exaggerated, I have practiced martial arts for many years. I heard that you only came into contact with martial arts before returning to the Lin family. No matter how talented you are, your time in martial arts training is so short that your improvement in strength is limited."
