Explanation

Glancing roughly at the thick stack, there were at least a few thousand yuan.

With a smack, she suddenly pressed the envelope tightly against her thigh, as if afraid the money would grow wings and fly away.

The old woman's voice changed pitch, carrying a trace of trembling and panic: "You... you child! Where did you get so much money?! You absolutely must not do anything bad! Your teacher said you study so well, you can't go astray!"

Lin Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This scene and these lines weren't much different from Feng Binbin's reaction.

It was just that one thought he had robbed a bank, while the other thought he had done something bad.

They really were family.

He had to patiently reassure her: "Second Aunt-Grandma, what are you thinking? This is the scholarship and subsidy issued by the school. Because my grades are good, the school rewarded me."

"Can a scholarship be this much? Although I haven't been to school, I watched your mother study." Grandma clearly didn't believe it.

Lin Mo sighed and simply took out his phone, dialing Chen Xiaoya's number right in front of her.

On the other end of the phone, Chen Xiaoya was wearing a face mask and watching a drama. The call startled her so much she almost threw her phone.

Lin Mo? Late at night, did something happen to this little ancestor?!

"Hello! Lin Mo, is something wrong?" Chen Xiaoya's voice sounded a bit flustered.

"Teacher Chen, sorry to bother you so late, but I have a small favor to ask of you." Lin Mo's tone was relaxed.

"Didn't the school reward me with a lot of subsidies? I gave the money to my grandma, but she doesn't believe it and thinks I did something bad. I have to trouble you to explain it to her."

Saying that, Lin Mo handed the phone directly to his grandma and turned on the speaker.

Chen Xiaoya on the other end was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief.

So it was just this matter. However, considering the old lady's thoughts, it was indeed necessary to explain a little.

She cleared her throat and spoke in an extremely official yet gentle tone:

"Hello, Lin Mo's grandma. I am Lin Mo's homeroom teacher. We spoke on the phone before, do you remember?"

As soon as Grandma heard it, she recognized Chen Xiaoya's voice.

"I remember, I remember. Teacher Chen, right? I recognize your voice."

After all, Lin Mo had nourished his grandma's body previously, so her memory and hearing were completely normal.

"It's good that you recognize it. Don't worry, Lin Mo has performed exceptionally well at school and won a lot of glory for us. This money is indeed a special talent reward and subsidy jointly issued by the school and some educational foundations. We are all proud of him!"

She thanked her repeatedly over the phone: "Oh, so that's how it is... That's good, that's good... I've really troubled you, Teacher Chen. With my Little Mo at school, I still need you to take care of him..."

Just as his grandma was exchanging pleasantries with the homeroom teacher, Lin Mo took out a piece of entirely emerald-green jade from his pocket and seamlessly slipped it into his grandma's empty hand.

People on the phone will subconsciously take things handed to them.

Grandma was chatting enthusiastically when she suddenly felt something cold and smooth in her hand. She didn't pay it any mind and just held it.

Only after hanging up the phone did she open her palm and look at it under the light.

"What is this? A piece of jade?"

The old lady had lived frugally her whole life; how could she tell the difference between imperial green jade and the bottom of a beer bottle?

Lin Mo just smiled, gently patted the back of her hand, and solemnly spouted nonsense: "Yes, it's jade. I specially went to the temple to pray for it for you. It's been consecrated. The master said you must wear it all the time and never let it leave your body. It can bless you with good health and a long life."

Hearing that it was prayed for and consecrated, Grandma's attitude immediately became solemn.

She held the jade pendant in her palms and examined it carefully.

Just then, she suddenly let out a surprised sound.

The jade pendant felt cold to the touch, but after holding it for a while, an indescribable warm current actually flowed along her palm and slowly seeped into her limbs and bones.

She didn't know if it was an illusion or not.

Anyway, Grandma felt that the piece of jade in her hand was indeed very nice, so she simply wore it around her neck.

Seeing his grandma put on the jade pendant, Lin Mo also smiled.

System: The paper airplane from childhood has now finally flown back into your hands.

After staying at his grandma's house for more than ten days, Lin Mo packed his things and prepared to set off.

"Second Aunt-Grandma, Brother Bin, I have to participate in the national competition and enter the base for training, so I can't stay with you for too long."

Feng Binbin didn't understand the rules of the Math Olympiad, and Grandma understood even less.

So they could only say a few more words about paying attention to safety and remembering to keep in touch.

Afterwards, Lin Mo got on the car back to Yangcheng.

However, when the car arrived, Lin Mo had already disappeared from it.

An hour later, Liu Zheng, sitting in his office, received a message.

Lin Mo had disappeared in Yangcheng.

The figure that should have appeared at the station was gone.

It was as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth.

At this time, Liu Zheng's phone received a text message.

"No need to look for me. Mister took me to a trial. Leave the little bat with you for now, we'll talk when I get back."

Looking at the text message, Liu Zheng couldn't help but sigh, "A trial, what kind of trial?"

Saying that, he sent this situation through the internal system to Dongfang Shuye, Director Long, and the others.

They didn't reply quickly over there, but Liu Zheng felt that he should be able to free up his time these days and have a comfortable summer vacation.

System: Super Transformation!

The ocean is boundless.

Even though he had reached Foundation Establishment, Lin Mo still had this feeling.

However, he finally saw an isolated island at the end.

Of course, just because there is an island doesn't mean there are no people on it.

Lin Mo landed on the beach. The biggest feature of a wild beach is that there are many rocks and a complete ecosystem.

The ground was full of water pools and crabs buried in the sand.

Lin Mo casually picked up a cat's eye snail on the beach, squeezed it casually, and water squirted out.

"I'm getting an Ed Stafford vibe."

However, Lin Mo didn't linger, but flew around the entire island.

There were some rudimentary buildings here, but not many traces of life. Probably someone had lived here, but they might have died or left.

Lin Mo checked it out. There was no food here, only some simple tools, but they all looked like they were brought in from the outside.

"It seems to really be a deserted island."

It was actually Lin Mo's first time encountering this kind of environment, but his mindset was definitely much more normal than an ordinary person's.

He looked up at the mountains on the island and could roughly judge that he had arrived somewhere in Southeast Asia.

After all, only countries in these regions would have a large number of undeveloped deserted islands.

Lin Mo rose into the air and flew directly towards the top of the mountain.

He had no intention of climbing up step by step.

The mountaintop wasn't considered steep, but the overgrown weeds made it impossible to even sit down.

However, as Lin Mo raised his hand and pressed down, a spacious area over ten meters wide was cleared out beneath his feet.

Lin Mo sat on the ground, and his body began to brew its energy.

First regulate his breathing, then study how to break through to the Golden Core.
