My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"Of course!"

"You're doomed to lose."

An Youyu was very confident, "Auntie is such a kind person, she would never discourage you when you get such a high score."

Lin Mo did not offer any explanation for this.

How long has this girl known her mother?

That's for the best; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so easily fooled.

After the second period in the morning, Yan Shiming called An Youyu to his office.

Lin Mo was very self-aware and followed behind the two without saying a word.

When Yan Shiming noticed Lin Mo behind him, he stopped and glared at him, annoyed. "Who gave you permission to follow me?"

"Teacher Yan, what are you saying?"

Lin Mo smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's break time now, students can go wherever they want. Besides, I'm An Youyu's spokesperson. If you need to find her, it's the same as needing to find me. Isn't it normal for me to come along?"

An Youyu lowered her head, her eyes shimmering with a smile.

Yan Shiming sized up Lin Mo, whose expression remained unchanged, and smirked, "I've figured it out, you really are shameless!"

"cough--"

Lin Mo chuckled dryly, "Teacher Yan, as a teacher, you should be mindful of your words."

Yan Shiming, his beard bristling and eyes wide, said, "Are you trying to teach me how to do things?"

"..."

Seeing that Lin Mo didn't say anything more, Yan Shiming turned his gaze away and walked towards his office.

Lin Mo quickened his pace, walking alongside An Youyu. "How is it?"

An Youyu's eyes flashed with doubt, "What do you mean, 'how'?"

"How well did I perform as a spokesperson?"

"It's alright..."

"Since things are going well, remember to pay me my salary from now on, okay?"

"what?"

An Youyu stopped in her tracks, her big, watery eyes widening in surprise. "You want money back? That's so...heartless!"

Hearing the girl's complaints, Lin Mo's eyes filled with amusement. "No businessman is without guile, so there's nothing wrong with being ruthless, is there?"

An Youyu curled her lips, "I won't pay you a salary, do you think I'm stupid?"

Lin Mo chuckled softly and quickened his pace.

An Youyu followed with some difficulty, "You, you don't walk so fast, wait for me..."

"No wait."

Lin Mo said this, but his body language betrayed him, and his speed instantly decreased.

An Youyu followed, a captivating smile uncontrollably appearing on her lips.

Her smile was like a clear mountain stream, sweet and pure.

A gentle breeze swept by, brushing across the boy's face and through the girl's hair, aimlessly heading into the distance, just like that innocent and ignorant youth, unaware of where the road ahead leads, yet still fondly remembered.

In the office.

Yan Shiming took out two certificates of honor and two medals from the drawer. "An Youyu, these are from the annual literary journal. You won both the gold and silver awards this year. That's amazing!"

"Teacher, you flatter me. The juvenile fish are nothing special."

Just as An Youyu was about to step forward to accept the certificate and medal, Lin Mo beat her to it.

Lin Mo examined the certificates and medals in his hand. "Teacher Yan, is this all?"

Yan Shiming raised an eyebrow. "Otherwise? What else do you want?"

"bonus."

"No."

Lin Mo clicked his tongue. "This literary annual is really stingy. It only awards two prizes a year, but it won't even give out a penny of the prize money. It's really a miser!"

Yan Shiming rolled his eyes, speechless.

The gold and silver awards for literary yearbooks are coveted by countless people; for writers, these two awards represent immense honor.

When it came to Lin Mo, he didn't care about the honor at all; instead, he was concerned about whether there would be a prize money...

Their thought process is truly unique!

Upon hearing that there would be no bonus, a hint of disappointment flashed across An Youyu's face, and she couldn't help but add, "That's really stingy. Even a little something would have been nice..."

Yan Shiming: "..."

have to.

Here comes another one!

"Cough-cough-"

Yan Shiming's smile held a hint of helplessness. "An Youyu, you've already signed a contract with Tsinghua University. After you go to university, you won't have to worry about money like before. Focus your energy on academic research. With your talent, you're sure to achieve remarkable success in the future. Keep it up!"

"Don't worry, teacher, the young fish will definitely remember your teachings."

An Youyu whispered her promise, "Once I get to university, I will dedicate all my energy to mathematical research and work hard to earn money... no, I will work hard to improve myself."

Yan Shiming had a strange expression.

In the end, it all comes down to making money.

This little girl is really obsessed with money!

Upon hearing the girl's promise, Lin Mo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

An Youyu blushed slightly and stammered, "I... I meant I'm trying to improve myself. You're not allowed to laugh."

Her soft, sweet voice made people's ears go weak.

Lin Mo stopped laughing. "I'll supervise you to work hard... no, I'll supervise you to improve yourself."

"you……"

An Youyu knew perfectly well that Lin Mo was teasing her on purpose. She blushed and glared at him, then nodded to Yan Shiming, "Teacher, if there's nothing else, I'll head back to the classroom now."

"Go."

Yan Shiming waved his hand, and when his gaze swept over Lin Mo, he couldn't help but say, "You did well on the second mock exam. Keep it up. Next is the third mock exam and then the college entrance exam. You must not let your guard down. I hope you can create a miracle of a comeback."

Lin Mo smiled and nodded, "I will do my best."

……

After school.

Lin Mo and An Youyu walked onto the sidewalk, facing the sunset, their shadows stretched long.

The two walked very slowly. Having spent so much time together, both Lin Mo and An Youyu had gotten used to this pace.

An Youyu took one step at a time on a bluestone slab, her waist-length hair swaying behind her.

Her stunning beauty was beginning to show, attracting frequent glances from passersby.

After returning home, Lin Mo placed the honorary certificate and trophy from the annual literary journal on the coffee table, then pulled his mother, who was cooking, to sit down on the sofa.

"These are Little Fish's spoils of war."

Lin Shu looked at the two certificates of honor and the two trophies in front of her, and doubts arose in her eyes. However, after she finished reading the two certificates of honor, her doubts disappeared.

She took a deep breath and asked her son for confirmation, "Little Fish's essay won another award?"

"Correct."

Lin Shu closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she looked at An Youyu as if she were looking at a rare treasure. "Yu'er, can you promise Auntie something?"

A hint of surprise flashed across An Youyu's face, and she nodded obediently, saying, "I will do my best to do what Auntie asked me to do."

"When you take the third mock exam, control your score."

"what?"

Upon hearing this request, An Youyu looked at Lin Mo in surprise, her eyes filled with questioning.

Lin Mo shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.

An Youyu sat down to Lin Shu's left. "Auntie, I promised Lin Mo I wouldn't control my score anymore, so..."

“It’s okay, I’ll persuade him.”

Before the girl could finish speaking, Lin Shu interrupted her, looking at her son on her right, "Xiao Mo, you should agree, right?"

"I……"

Think before you speak!

"..."

Lin Mo rolled his eyes, speechless.

Now that things have come to this point, does it even matter whether he agrees or not?

"Could you explain your reasons?"

Faced with her son's final stubbornness, Lin Shu smiled and said, "Yu'er, go to the kitchen and pick out the vegetables from the bag on the floor."

"it is good."

An Youyu knew that Lin Shu had deliberately sent her away, but she wasn't curious. She obediently got up and went to the kitchen.

After the girl entered the kitchen, Lin Shu's gaze fell on her son. "Xiao Mo, don't you think Yu'er's performance is too outstanding?"

Lin Mo asked with a smile, "Isn't it good that the fish is excellent?"

"It is good."

Lin Shu said meaningfully, "But it's also worrying."
