Chen Mo looked uninterested and shook his head, saying, "Boring, isn't it about time to end this?"

The gong struck.
Before the emcee could announce the result, Yu'er leaped down from the stage, holding up the hem of her dress, and dashed toward Chen Mo.
Utterly disregarding the gazes of others, she plunged into his arms like a bird returning to its nest, clinging to his sturdy back while misty water brimmed in her almond-shaped eyes.
"Master, didn't I tell you not to come?"
"Just passing by, decided to stop over."
"Master still won't admit it, but you were clearly worried about me!"

Yu'er took out a stack of silver notes from her bosom and handed them to Chen Mo, "Yu'er will forever belong to Master; there's no need for Master to spend money to acquire me. This is the… the remaining savings of the Xu Family, Master, please accept."
Chen Mo, of course, knew the origin of this money.
