I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today
Chapter 389 - Chapter 389: Chapter 389: It’s Still Shen Mo’s SideChapter 389: Chapter 389: It’s Still Shen Mo’s Side
Shen Fei and his father both served the organization, so they were always well-informed.
Shen Mo had also heard about the base relocation from Shen Fei.
“Has it been confirmed about the relocation?” Shen Mo asked, “Where are we moving to?”
“The professor suggests moving south along the coastline.” Father Shen replied, “It’s August now, autumn is just around the corner. Without electricity and heating systems, moving north would pose too many challenges, especially with the shortage of food.”
Moving south would mean warmer climate, continuous plant growth, and people wouldn’t starve to death.
Head north? Or move south?
Two completely opposite directions.
Shen Mo furrowed his brows. If the base were to move, his departure would mean cutting ties with his family.
In a world like this, losing contact was a terrifying thing, because it was like…a final farewell.
Father Shen understood his concern and said: “Don’t worry too much, the professor has already recruited a team that will enter the game tomorrow. They’re all top players, so there’s a high chance they’ll clear the game. If Area 21 is successfully conquered, there will be no need to relocate.”
Shen Mo pondered, nodding in agreement.
“By the way.” Father Shen remembered something and asked Shen Mo, “Since we’re leaving, when will you bring Weiwei over for me to meet?”
Shen Mo was taken aback, looking at him.
“Shen Fei told me you two are living together.” Father Shen paused, then added, “Sleeping together, too.”
Shen Mo:
“Even though the world is in chaos, certain rules must be observed. If you’re sure about being together, bring her over for me to meet.” Father Shen reminded.
Shen Mo gave a barely perceptible frown, remaining silent for a moment.
Father Shen eyed his reaction, somewhat puzzled, and asked: “Was it a misunderstanding by Shen Fei?”
After two seconds of silence, Shen Mo replied, “I’ll bring her over tomorrow.”
It was now Father Shen’s turn to be silent: “…”
He was slightly taken aback. His son had always been reticent, never sharing personal matters. Was this answer a veiled admission that he and the girl were together?
He patted Shen Mo heavily on the shoulder, “Come around tonight, and don’t let your second uncle and cousin find out. They already have a lot to say about Auntie Wang, if they found out about Weiwei coming, they would definitely bug me about it.”
Hearing this, Shen Mo found it somewhat amusing. “Dad, haven’t you given up on Auntie Wang yet?” he asked.
“Why should I give up? Don’t repeat your second uncle’s words.” Father Shen just smiled, “They don’t understand the beauty of love.”
Shen Mo:
The father and son chatted for a while, then Uncle Shen arrived, and it was time for the uncle and nephew to catch up.
When he learned that Shen Mo was planning to collect jigsaw puzzles, Uncle Shen immediately praised him, saying: “You are truly a man of the Shen Family! A man should be adventurous, don’t worry, your father will be looked after by me and Xiaofei!”
He then pulled Shen Fei over, called a few Shen Family relatives, and held a farewell party for Shen Mo.
Some of them had been distant relatives, but now that the Shen family only had a few of them left, they became closer than before.
After eating, it was inevitable for them to drink.
After drinking, it was inevitable for emotions to run high.
From the afternoon to the evening, the whole table was unbridled with laughter, shedding tears, drowning their sorrows in alcohol.
Some were crying over death, some were laughing their heads off, some were cursing the fickle nature of the world…
Shen Mo watched this spectacle, holding his glass. Behind a glass wall, he observed this spectrum of human life clearly and in silence.
He has always been this way since he was a child. Adults praised him for his maturity, but in reality, he was just indifferent.
Father Shen gently patted his shoulder, saying: “Remember tonight well. Even if we don’t get to see each other in the future, when you reminisce, you can still recall how we were all drinking together.”
Upon hearing this, waves rippled in Shen Mo’s calm lake of a heart.
When he looked again at the relatives and friends at the table, he seemed to share in their joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness… he could feel some of it too.
