《The Side Character’s Hidden Boss!》The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Mo Li glanced at Mo Yun. This was probably his doing. After all, he had not seen her with a book whenever he came home, so he assumed that she had not been studying.
"The children of the Mo Family have to uphold a certain standard. Take for example your 3 older brothers, even though they were already pursuing different careers when they were studying, their starts in the fields of business, politics and entertainment never affected their academic results." Noting the lack of reaction from Mo Li, Mo Yi could only sigh helplessly. He didn't know how much of his advice had really registered with his daughter. If this continued, he really would have to send his daughter overseas to study. The thought of that instantly brought Mo Yi headache. If he dared to do that, he would have to answer to his parents, they would not let him off the hook so easily.
Just as he was about to say something more, the door bell suddenly rang.
Mo Yi and Mo Yun shared a look, as if asking the other if they were expecting any guest. After getting an affirmative no from his father, Mo Yun stood up and walked to the door.
An unfamiliar face greeted him. It was a senior man with white hair and strange attire. He was dressed in a T-shirt and a colorful long-sleeved shirt jacket, definitely not suitable for someone his age. It made him look like a child.
"Hello, is Miss Mo Li home?" Even though Tao Wen was not really a social person, he knew he had to personally pay a house visit if he wanted to persuade Mo Li.
"Huh? Is that you, Professor Tao Wen?" Mo Li gasped in shock. This was because she heard that Professor Tao Wen never drove or took any vehicle because the odds of dying in a vehicular accident was too high. "Prof, how did you get here?" Mo Li couldn't help but ask.

Tao Wen pointed at the bicycle parked at the door and said, "I cycled here of course."
After inviting the old professor in, Mo Yun shot a look at Mo Yi. This is the type of teacher they have at Mo Li's school? Are you sure this is a good school we've sent Mo Li to?
Mo Li made the introduction, "Prof. Tao Wen is the Math Subject Leader at our school. He has over 176 IQ and has masters' degrees in applied mathematics from Qing Bei University and theoretical physics from Caltech."
Mo Yi had heard of this old man before. This senior professor was a genius, he went to university at 12 and was a guest lecturer at Heidelberg when he was 17. With ease, he gained 2 masters and 1 doctorate. Even though he had a very high IQ, his EQ was practically 0. The man was an eccentric since he was young. He was adamant that there was no one cleverer than him in this world. He even believed that he was omnipotent!
Mo Yi felt a headache coming. How did his daughter get mixed up with this eccentric old man? What kind of trouble she had gotten herself into this time?
Mo Li though could empathize with Tao Wen's eccentricities, because in a way Mo Li was not that different from him. Even now Mo Li had interpersonal problems and refused to be too close with people whom she was not familiar with. But Tao Wen's condition was more severe than hers. He refused to accept anything that he saw as illogical and could not be calculated.
Mo Yi's headache intensified seeing that Mo Li's teacher had come personally to visit them. This couldn't be about any good news.
"Sir, just voice any complaint that you have! Has Mo Li been up to no good at school again? I am so sorry on Mo Li's behalf." Even though seconds ago, Mo Yi was urging his daughter to pay more attention to her studies, when Mo Li's teacher showed up, the first thing he did was to apologize for Mo Li and tried to prevent his daughter from being punished. Old habits die hard. "Did she not finish her papers?"

Tao Wen shook his head, he was confused by the way the Mo Family was acting. Tao Wen had no idea that Mo Li used to hand in empty scripts.
"Then has she done something worse? She didn't go to school? She played truancy?"
"No, it's not that either."
Mo Yun finally cut in, "Then, why has Prof. Tao personally come to visit our home today?" He could barely reign in his disappointment anymore. He thought his sister had finally learned her lesson but she was only acting around him. Once she returned to school, her true colors were revealed. She had not learned anything after all!
Tao Wen frowned. He was shocked that the Mo Family would have such little faith in their daughter. Suddenly he felt a surge of pity for Mo Li. Growing up with such lack of encouragement, she could still blossom against all odds, she was truly a gem to be discovered.
"I'm here because Mo Li has managed a perfect score in our school's IMO mock exam." Tao Wen said evenly, not noticing the expression that had frozen on Mo Yun and Mo Yi's faces. "That is the main reason I'm here today."
