Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Task Completed, Earned 10 Points

"What about the dean later?"

"Dead," Mo Shu paused slightly, her tone unchanged, "Cancer. She was afraid I’d spend too much money and didn’t dare to tell me. By the time I found out, it was already at an advanced stage. She had undergone several surgeries, but her condition only worsened."

Mo Shu’s tone was indifferent, simply recounting the events calmly.

However, the dimness and sadness in her eyes couldn’t be concealed.

Mo Shu’s movements were crisp, as she continued to sketch, as if the things she had just talked about were just fleeting clouds.

For some reason, Sao Zha felt a pang of heartache.

Looking at the drawing under her pen, Mo Shu’s pencil tip pieced together the shape of an elk’s head with the interlocking pieces of diamond shapes, simple and stylish. She quickly added diamonds to the design, creating a luxurious and enchanting look.

Sao Zha was extremely impressed and said, "No wonder you said you had your own way, it’s not just bravado!"

Mo Shu gave him a disdainful glance, "Of course. This single design helped elevate the company to a strong position in the domestic jewelry industry back in the day, and it made me famous in one battle. Unfortunately, no good works have come out afterward. This series is called Diamond Forest."

’Ding’

"Daily death-trigger task completed, 5 points earned. Additional task completed, 5 points earned, total 10 points, balance 15 points."

Mo Shu was taken aback, "What does that mean?"

Sao Zha: "Ahhhhh actually completed the task!? When did you ask the male protagonist to help you?!"

Mo Shu was even more baffled, "I didn’t ask, I already said I had my own way to handle it! What’s the additional task?"

Sao Zha spun around excitedly, screaming, "Arguing with the male protagonist ahhhh!"

Mo Shu’s eardrums were about to burst from his noise, "Quiet!"

Sao Zha immediately fell silent, still buzzing with excitement.

Mo Shu felt very odd, "Although I did argue with him, I never asked for his help. Why would the task complete on its own?"

Sao Zha speculated, "Could it be... the male protagonist felt you didn’t need his help, and out of spite, he decided to help you anyway?"

Mo Shu: "..."

This possibility...

It wasn’t impossible!

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Ji Nan walked in and said, "Princess, there’s a call for you. It’s Mr. Meng."

"Bring it here."

As soon as she picked up the call, she heard Meng Yunjing’s voice, sounding a bit excited, "Shushu, Adrien just called me."

Mo Shu guessed, "Could it be that he can help us now?"

Meng Yunjing chuckled, "I knew it. You talked to Young Master Yu, right? I just knew Young Master Yu wouldn’t have asked Adrien to help us for no reason."

Mo Shu: "I didn’t. He just came to my house, and we even had an argument."

Meng Yunjing was briefly surprised but then smiled lightly, "Either way, Young Master Yu is still your fiancé, the father of your child. Even if you’re angry, try not to stay mad for too long. It’s good that he can help us. Take this chance and make up with him."

Mo Shu didn’t engage in that topic, politely ended the conversation, and hung up.

After ending the call, the more she thought about it, the more it felt off. She wondered to herself: Didn’t the task description say that it could only be completed if I asked for his help?

Sao Zha also rubbed his plump eggshell-shaped body, "Maybe, it was just luck this time?"

Mo Shu: You don’t know?

Sao Zha exploded, "How could I not know, it’s because you’re lucky, so this time the task was completed and you got so many points, huh!"
