Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 289: Candy: Eek~ Uncle Is So Scary~

"Boss..."

Evil Wolf wanted to say something but stopped short.

Instead, Lone Wolf stood there with a seemingly carefree smile.

Everyone could tell that Lone Wolf was forcing a smile to hide his true feelings.

Having lost his right hand, it’s not an exaggeration to say that Lone Wolf was seventy percent disabled.

Whether even the remaining thirty percent of his combat ability was still there was uncertain.

Holding his sister’s little hand, Mo Jingchun looked at Lone Wolf, who had lost his right hand, and took a deep breath.

Lone Wolf had also lost his arm because of him this time. Mo Jingchun could never let Lone Wolf just leave the company.

"Let’s go back first and talk later."

"Lone Wolf, you should return to the company and recuperate for a while before continuing to protect me."

Although he knew that the loss of his right hand was Lone Wolf’s sore spot, Mo Jingchun still said, "Your right hand... I’ll think of something."

"I’ll ask the military if there’s a powerful mechanical arm."

Mo Jingchun patted Lone Wolf’s shoulder and said,

"Let’s go, we’ll head back."

As everyone passed by Lone Wolf, they all patted him on the shoulder.

The boss’s intention was clear: he wouldn’t let him leave Candy Technology.

Any lingering worries in everyone’s hearts were swept away.

Nowadays, Lone Wolf was just like everyone else, the pillar of his family. If he lost his income, that would be what Lone Wolf found hardest to accept.

Besides, the boss said he would ask the military to fit a mechanical arm for Lone Wolf.

The last to get in the car, Lone Wolf, let out a long breath.

To be honest, even if time rewound to that moment, he would unhesitatingly go forward to pick up the grenade and throw it away.

A mechanical arm? If he could indeed get a military-grade mechanical arm, he would accept it.

On the way, the car Mo Jingchun was in was rather quiet.

Mo Jingchun, resting with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke to Xia Xiaomin, who was sitting with him in the back seat:

"Lone Wolf’s hand was lost because of me."

"After we return, handle it, and let the finance department issue a compensation of 2 million to Lone Wolf."

"Have Xu Pengfei sign it and say it’s my intention."

Xia Xiaomin nodded and replied, "Okay, boss."

In the front row, the driver Xiaofeixia and Zhang Yuanqi, hearing the boss’s words, were a bit moved.

Two million, Lone Wolf would probably really be able to smile.

At least in his eyes, his son’s future education and marriage seemed secure.

It was just a small town; the house, car, bride price, all summed together, would probably be around two million.

Besides, as bodyguards at Candy Technology, their monthly salary wasn’t low either.

Upon returning to the tech park, as soon as Mo Jingchun got out of the car, he was dragged into the security booth by his uncle and thoroughly scolded.

"You, do you even care about your life?"

"What would Candy do if something happened to you?"

"I’m a rough old man, never been educated much, haven’t heard of whatever prize you’re talking about, and it’s really unwise to put yourself in danger for an award like that."

Beside him, the little guy sat on a chair eating seedless watermelon, her little legs dangling in the air.

Watching the drama was so much fun.

Especially seeing her brother keeping his head down, constantly mumbling "Uh-huh, uh-huh."

So interesting, so interesting, it was really so amusing.

As her uncle grew more engrossed in his lecture, the little one involuntarily shivered.

Ugh! Uncle was so scary, Guoguo must be well-behaved and cute in front of him in the future.

Meanwhile, returning to the ground after parking the car in the underground garage, Xiaofeixia addressed Lone Wolf in front of everyone:

"During the ride, the boss and Secretary Xia said that finance will transfer you a compensation of 2 million."

Lone Wolf was stunned and asked, "Really?"

Though he knew the company would surely compensate him, since losing his hand was technically a work injury.

Yet, he hadn’t expected to receive so much.

"Would I lie to you, brother? If you don’t believe me, ask Qizi."

"What he said is true; the boss indeed said that." Facing Lone Wolf’s eager eyes, Zhang Yuanqi concealed nothing and truthfully answered.

"Not bad, not bad indeed." Hearing Lone Wolf’s murmurs, Wild Wolf and the others were momentarily silent.

Lone Wolf lost his hand protecting everyone.

Moreover, as a fellow special forces soldier, if there was any choice, who would willingly lose their most important right hand?

Yet, given the circumstances, things were already quite good.

He was still alive and received a compensation; he hadn’t lost his job.

Suddenly, standing on the outermost edge, Wild Wolf froze for a moment, then tears welled up in his eyes.

"Gather around, all of you."

Wild Wolf took a deep breath, looked at his gathered comrades, and surprisingly smiled.

"Good news."

"This mission was completed excellently. Lone Wolf voluntarily covered for his teammates to retreat and was awarded a second-class merit. The others, for their bravery and resilience in battle, strict adherence to battlefield discipline, and outstanding completion of combat tasks, were all awarded a third-class merit once."

"Worth it." Lone Wolf said with a silly smile.

When Mo Jingchun, feeling downcast from his uncle’s scolding, came out and saw Wild Wolf and the others gathered together, especially Lone Wolf with that silly smile.

A worry crossed Mo Jingchun’s mind; could Lone Wolf not handle the blow and was having a mental breakdown?

"Lone Wolf, you should go rest and recuperate; remember to go to the hospital regularly for checkups and dressing changes. All costs will be covered by the company."

"Ah? Thank you, boss."

Mo Jingchun shook his head and led his sister into the office building.

That’s about all he could do.

If a neural connection device were successfully developed, Mo Jingchun would attempt to retrofit the mechanical arm.

If successful, this technology would undoubtedly benefit humanity.

It could also find applications in the military.

But just thinking about the stagnation in the research progress of the neural connection device made Mo Jingchun frown.

Where did the problem lie?

Could it be due to insufficient chip computing power?

That seemed unlikely; insufficient chip computing power would at most slow down responses, how could it cause burnout?

"Brother, brother, what day of the week is it today?"

In the elevator, Mo Jingchun was momentarily at a loss, what day was it today?

Fortunately, Zero stepped in to help him out.

"Today is Friday."

Mo Jingchun checked his watch; it was already past three in the afternoon.

At this hour, there’s no point in going to the kindergarten.

"Oh~"

"Brother, I’ll go napnap." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

After sitting in the car for so long, the little one was tired.

Exiting the elevator, Mo Jingchun, holding the little one’s hand, nodded in agreement:

"Okay."

"When we go home, brother will call you to get up."

"Okay~"

Back in the office, the little one let go of her brother’s hand and ran into the bedroom.

Mo Jingchun looked at Xia Xiaomin, who had returned to the office earlier, and said:

"Go over what’s happened in the company during this period and the backlog of documents."

"I’ll deal with the documents this afternoon."

"Okay, boss."

PS: Thanks to Nie Xu and the unfamiliar for their rewards and support.
