Chapter 1261: His Mom Had Become Naggy
One summer 10 years later.
The weather in Boston, which was located several tens of thousands of kilometers away, was amazing with white fluffy clouds and clear blue skies. There was a tinge of sweetness in the fresh air.
This was the top university in the world and all the students who managed to enroll as students in this university were highly intelligent.
The students emerged from their cla.s.sroom talking and laughing after the school bell rang.
Their smiles were radiant and youthful.
It had been five years since Mo Ling commenced his studies at this university. He was currently pursuing his Master of Business at this university. He had been sent to America by his father Mo Yixuan to further his studies when he was 13, so he had been living in America for the past 9 years.
He had enjoyed studying since he was a child and had always excelled in his studies. He was accepted into this university five years ago because of his outstanding academic achievement of achieving full marks for three subjects. He had graduated with a dual Bachelor’s degree in Economy and Fine Arts over the five years he had been here. This was a university that was teeming with intellectuals and highly talented students and he was also an outstanding student.
He received a call from his mother the moment he stepped out of the school gates.
His mother sounded as warm as ever over the phone and she asked, “Mo Ling, are you done with school?”
“Yes, mom…” he replied.
“Great. Please read your WeChat messages. I’ve shared my location with you, so why don’t you come over and let’s go get dinner?” He Xiyan said.
Mo Ling agreed and quickly headed toward the garage to collect his car.
His mother had informed him that she would be visiting him several days ago but he hadn’t expected her to arrive so soon.
His mother had sent him the location details of a restaurant that was located 5 kilometers from the campus so it only took him less than 20 minutes to arrive.
Soon, he saw his mother. His mother was already 46 years old but because she looked much younger than her age because she had put in the effort to maintain her looks.
His mom would visit every year and she usually came every quarter. She had flown to see him thirty or forty times over the past nine years.
However, this trip had been very sudden. She hadn’t given him much warning before she flew over.
“Mom, you’ve become more beautiful!” Mo Ling said with a smile.
His mother had indeed become more beautiful and he could tell that she had make-up on but nonetheless, he could still see the fine lines that lined the corners of her eyes.
His mother was slowly growing old.
He Xiyan smiled warmly as she looked appraisingly at her child. Yuan Yuan had grown to be a handsome young man before she knew it. He took after his father and his features were well-defined and exquisite, as though they were carefully crafted.
“Mo Ling, how’s school?” she asked.
She always started with the same question.
Mo Ling nodded and said, “Mom, I’m good. There’s no need to worry.”
“I saw on the news that there was yet another serious shooting in America and also saw that it took place on a school campus. You must take good care of yourself. Avoid going out at night and going to crowded places. Don’t get into a fight with others… ” she said. She was just like any other parent who would nag at their child as they grew older and she was no different.
Mo Ling listened to his mother as she nagged at him. He knew that she would always see him as a little boy. She seemed to have forgotten that he was 22 years old and a grown man.
“Yes, mom. I know,” he said with a smile.
They chatted happily as they ate and they looked just like old friends.
She couldn’t help but ask about Mo Yixuan during her conversation with her son.
“Oh yes, Mo Ling. How is your father doing recently?”
