Chapter 333: Chapter 207 - Satisfied Smile! (Three-in-One, 5/5)_4
Su Tianxin looked at Chen Mo and asked, "So, the Academy Alliance was involved in you passing fifty levels?"
"Hush, it’s all a secret, we can’t talk about it," Chen Mo whispered again.
But no matter how quietly he spoke, the surrounding teachers heard him very clearly.
Soon, this news spread to Rangu.
Rangu had already guessed the Academy Alliance was up to something, and this just confirmed his suspicions. He lost even more interest in Chen Mo.
However, just to be cautious, he still decided to send someone to investigate thoroughly.
After explaining things at school, Chen Mo was finally allowed to go home by the teachers.
However, on the way, Su Tianxin personally escorted him, fearing that Chen Mo’s earlier words might genuinely provoke an attack from the Aliens.
Chen Mo’s repeated refusals were useless; he could only let her escort him.
"Chen Mo, there are some things I shouldn’t say if they’re arranged by the Academy Alliance. But no matter what arrangements come from above, if anything endangers your personal safety in the future, you must learn to refuse, understand?" Su Tianxin said with concern on the way.
"Understood," Chen Mo nodded.
"To think you still went along with it so obediently!" Su Tianxin glared at Chen Mo.
"Well, I only knew because you told me," Chen Mo said with a smile.
"You child, you usually seem so smart, but at times like these, you’re easily taken advantage of. Anyway, you need to be more careful in the future. You’re about to go to university, and I won’t be able to look out for you anymore. From now on, you’ll have to rely entirely on yourself."
Hearing these words, Chen Mo felt a bit sentimental. After all, he had spent so many years at Seaside Second Middle School and had developed deep feelings for his teachers. To suddenly leave, he truly felt a bit reluctant. Especially since his teacher was still so responsible and caring towards him, right up to the very end. Even though, on the surface, he was just an ordinary Skeleton Mage. To this kind teacher, she didn’t discriminate against students based on their ultimate achievements.
After she dropped him off at home, Chen Mo had intended to invite his teacher in for a cup of tea, but Su Tianxin had other matters to attend to and left first.
Seeing this, Chen Mo didn’t insist on her staying.
Upon returning home, Chen Mo was very surprised to see that Sister Yiyi had already prepared a large table full of delicious food, waiting for him.
"Sister Yiyi, why have you made such a feast again today?"
"Isn’t it because your college entrance exam is over? I thought if I prepared a lavish meal in advance, it would be like celebrating for you, and then you would surely come back with good results."
"That’s so metaphysical," Chen Mo laughed. "But it was very effective. I got full marks on my college entrance exam this time; top-tier universities are within reach."
"Top-tier universities!?" Liu Yiyi almost doubted if she had heard correctly.
"That’s right, you heard correctly. Top-tier universities, the best top-tier universities in the world," Chen Mo repeated with a smile.
"That’s wonderful, that’s wonderful!"
Instantly, Liu Yiyi was so overjoyed she stood up, momentarily at a loss for what to do as she danced around excitedly.
The very first thing she thought of was to share the good news with relatives and friends. Immediately, she began sending messages and making calls one after another.
Watching Liu Yiyi excitedly share the good news for a whole hour, Chen Mo couldn’t help but smile.
Previously, although Sister Yiyi often smiled, it was always a gentle smile. Chen Mo had very, very rarely seen her laugh as unrestrainedly and openly happy as she was now. In fact, he could say he had never seen it. This time, seeing her able to reveal such a heartfelt, happy smile, Chen Mo also felt a sense of joy from his own achievement. He was delighted that this achievement could make Sister Yiyi so genuinely happy.
When Liu Yuanzong and Qiu Yuehong heard about Chen Mo’s outstanding college entrance exam results, they were so excited they said they would buy train tickets to come over and celebrate with Chen Mo.
"No need to buy tickets. I can bring you over right now," Chen Mo said, leaning towards the phone.
"Are you going to fly over?" the old couple asked with a smile, remembering Chen Mo could fly.
"Faster than flying."
Chen Mo smiled. Suddenly, a magic wand appeared in his hand. He tapped it on the ground, and a transfer mark materialized.
With a thought, the next moment he had already used Divine Flicker and appeared in his grandparents’ home.
Before Liu Yuanzong and Qiu Yuehong could say anything, Chen Mo activated the Transfer Ring again. They received the Teleportation prompt and didn’t refuse.
With a flash of light, they were group-teleported to Chen Mo’s home, where he had just left the transfer mark.
"Mo, your Teleport ability is incredible! It’s as fast as a Teleportation Array, back and forth so quickly," Liu Yuanzong said, very surprised.
"It’s an ability similar to a Teleportation Array. Sister Yiyi just cooked a huge table of food, saying she prepared it in advance to celebrate. Let’s all eat together," Chen Mo said with a smile, bringing over two chairs.
As the four of them sat down at the table, the three elders were all beaming at Chen Mo, continuously putting food into his bowl as a reward.
In no time, Chen Mo’s bowl was nearly overflowing with food, which made him both amused and helpless.
"You all eat too! How can I possibly eat this much by myself?"
In the warm and happy family atmosphere, the table full of dishes was mostly finished.
Chen Mo, patting his round belly, said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Sister Yiyi and I bought a big house near the Global Academy Alliance Headquarters. In a couple of days, let’s go check it out. You two should get ready to move in with us then."
"Global Academy Alliance Headquarters?" Liu Yuanzong and Qiu Yuehong exchanged a surprised glance, wondering if they had misheard.
Chen Mo nodded with a smile.
"I heard that the prices of houses near our City-Level Academy Alliance Headquarters are already unbelievable, something like several billion. How much would a house near the Global Academy Alliance Headquarters cost?" Qiu Yuehong asked in disbelief.
Liu Yuanzong knew a bit more about these things. He said, stunned, "Old houses would be at least ten billion, new ones probably around twenty billion."
"Grandpa, you guessed it right. It’s twenty billion," Chen Mo said with a smile.
"What? Twenty billion!? That’s too expensive," Qiu Yuehong exclaimed, her face a picture of shock. She had never even heard of a house that expensive, let alone lived in one.
"Price isn’t the issue; safety is key. Living next to the Global Academy Alliance Headquarters, we won’t have to worry about red-named individuals or Aliens causing trouble anymore. That way, I can also be more at ease when I’m out on adventures. You know how some of those crazy red-named individuals can go on random killing sprees when they lose it."
What Chen Mo said sounded quite reasonable to Liu Yuanzong and Qiu Yuehong. Living in unprotected areas, if a deranged red-named individual appeared, innocent people could indeed get hurt. To let their child rest easier, they, as elders, should indeed live in a safer place.
Seeing this, the two of them didn’t say anything more.
After reassuring his grandparents and telling them to pack what they needed to bring over the next two days for the move, Chen Mo teleported them back.
After saying goodbye to his grandparents and cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks with Sister Yiyi, Chen Mo returned to his room. He washed up and then lay down on his bed.
Finally, his college entrance exam was over. He couldn’t help but start fantasizing about his life and plans after entering university. He’d heard that the competition for resources within universities was quite fierce, and he wondered what the environment would actually be like.
