"I probably won't be able to make it back!"
Lin Baici had another quick chat with his childhood friend, ended the call, and dialed his mom.
As soon as the call connected, before Mother Lin could say anything, Lin Baici rushed to speak.
"Mom, I made big money, the software I helped my senior with over the winter break got sold, and we're going to get quite a bit of money!"
Lin Baici faked excitement, his tone brimming with bragging.
"It's just too tiring though, having to work for 12 hours a day, and they took away our phones, wouldn't let us chat or play games!"
Mother Lin waited quietly for Lin Baici to finish, then spoke, "Are you eating well there? Have you lost weight?"
"I'm doing great, haven't lost any weight!"
Lin Baici sighed in his heart, he didn't want to deceive anyone, but being a God Hunter was something he couldn't dare talk about, or else Mom would definitely make him give it up.
