My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Faced with Lin Mo's firm attitude, An Youyu reluctantly nodded, "Well... okay, but you have to promise me one thing."

"what's up?"

"that……"

An Youyu found it difficult to speak when she thought about what she was about to say.

Seeing her conflicted expression, Lin Mo chuckled inwardly, his eyes filled with intense curiosity. "What's wrong? Just say what you want to say. What's there to be shy about with me?"

An Youyu blinked rapidly, her hands clenching the hem of her clothes tightly under the table, and said in a barely audible voice, "I can treat you to a big meal, but could you... not order anything too expensive?"

After saying this, her face flushed, afraid that Lin Mo would think she was stingy, and she hurriedly explained, "I haven't been able to help out at the library for the past two months, and I don't have much money left. If you order something too expensive, I might... not be able to afford it."

Upon hearing this reason, Lin Mo was stunned. "Didn't I pay you for the tutoring when you tutored me before?"

"I accepted the money, but I can't spend it."

An Youyu explained softly, "We're classmates, so it's only right that I help you with your studies. Besides, your aunt cooked me delicious food and gave me gifts; she spent more money than the tutoring fees. So, I'll consider that money as money I'm saving for you."

Lin Mo slapped his forehead, feeling utterly helpless.

But he also knew the girl's personality; she was very stubborn at heart, and once she made up her mind about something, no one could persuade her otherwise.

"Don't worry, I won't order anything too expensive."

"Thank you."

An Youyu breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, saying, "I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything I can help with."

"stop!"

Lin Mo quickly went to the door and stopped An Youyu. "Big sister, I'm begging you, do you really want to see me get beaten up?"

"Auntie was probably joking; she won't really hit you."

"Okay, then go ahead."

Lin Mo turned around and sat down at the computer desk. After An Youyu left, a smile appeared on his lips. "Just kidding? Little Yu'er, you're still too young!"

A few minutes later, a scream rang out.

Lin Mo walked out of the room with messy, unkempt hair and a high swelling on his right cheek.

Lin Shu, standing behind, had a hidden smile in her eyes.

An Youyu peeked out from the kitchen doorway and saw this scene. The vegetables in her hand fell to the ground, and she stood there in disbelief.

Lin Shu walked past her son to the kitchen doorway. "Auntie was just in a bad mood, but she's fine now."

"..."

An Youyu was stunned for more than ten seconds before hurriedly putting the vegetables back in the kitchen and untying her apron. "Auntie, I won't help anymore."

Lin Shu smiled broadly and patted the girl's head. "That's much better. Go outside and rest."

"it is good."

After leaving the kitchen, An Youyu silently pulled Lin Mo into the room.

Lin Shu stared at the kitchen doorway, her eyes unconsciously narrowing. "This kid's method is quite effective..."

In the other room, the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was unusually quiet.

After a long while, An Youyu cautiously reached out and poked Lin Mo, "I'm sorry, I...I was wrong. I won't help others anymore. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"

Lin Mo said with a stern face, "What's the point of saying this now?"

"I...I really know I was wrong."

An Youyu lowered her head guiltily, not daring to meet Lin Mo's gaze.

That's precisely why she didn't notice the smile in Lin Mo's eyes.

That's right, this beating was actually a play directed and acted by Lin Mo himself. He had told his mother before that if the girl insisted on helping, she should let her beat him up.

A good beating will definitely leave a deep impression on the girl!

However, what Lin Mo didn't expect was that her mother was extremely ruthless.

This wasn't just for show; it was a real beating!

"hiss--"

Lin Mo covered his swollen right cheek, his smile growing wider, but his tone was extremely calm, "Have you learned your lesson? Don't help out at my house again, just so I won't get beaten up, okay?"

"Row!"

An Youyu nodded rapidly, like a chick pecking at rice, "I've got it."

"Anyone would be upset if they were suddenly beaten up."

Seeing that the girl kept her head down, Lin Mo raised his hand and tapped her forehead. "Look how swollen my face is. Go see if there are any ice cubes in the refrigerator. I need to reduce the swelling."

"it is good."

In less than half a minute, An Youyu returned empty-handed. "Um... Auntie said there's no ice at home."

"Out of ice?"

Lin Mo kept inhaling the cold air and waved to her, "Then come over and blow on it for me."

All the groundwork laid before was for this moment!

Does he not know if there's ice in the house?

"what?"

Upon hearing Lin Mo's request, An Youyu stood frozen in place, a faint blush rising to her cheeks. "This...this...isn't it...a bit inappropriate..."

"Not suitable? What's not suitable about it?"

Seeing that the girl hesitated to speak, Lin Mo pretended to be disappointed and sighed, "Since you're in such a dilemma, then forget it. Pretend I didn't say anything."

An Youyu parted her lips slightly, "No, I just felt... I'd help you."

These words almost made Lin Mo, who had turned his back, lose his composure, and his shoulders twitched uncontrollably.

Unsurprisingly, the longest road this girl has ever walked is the road of his schemes!

This silly goose...

Chapter 119 Teaching her how to coax!

"Then what are you still standing there for?"

Lin Mo turned to look at the girl, his tone urging, "Hurry up and come help, it hurts so much."

He wasn't faking it; his mother hit him too hard, and it really hurt.

An Youyu came to his side, her whole body radiating nervousness. She took a deep breath, placed her hands on Lin Mo's shoulders, and slowly leaned forward.

As she got closer, she caught Lin Mo's scent, her heart raced, and she instinctively closed her eyes.

"cough!"

Lin Mo noticed the girl's movements and the increasing distance between them, and couldn't help but remind her, "Little Fish, don't blame me for not warning you, if you don't open your eyes soon, we might kiss."

"what?"

An Youyu opened her eyes. At this moment, she was only about three fingers' width away from Lin Mo's face. She could even clearly feel his hot breath. She hurriedly retreated.

However, due to being too hasty, his left foot tripped over the stool leg, causing him to lose his balance and fall backward.

Lin Mo reacted quickly, grabbing her waist and stopping her just before her head hit the corner of the table.

He turned his head to stare at the distance between the girl's head and the corner of the table, and was truly shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

If it had been half a second later, things would have been much worse!

An Youyu had no idea how dangerous the situation had just been. She smelled the overwhelming masculine scent and her mind went completely blank.

Lin Mo helped her up and said coldly, "Can you not panic so much when something happens in the future? Safety is always the most important thing!"

As he spoke, he glared at him irritably, "Did you hear me?"

His domineering tone was tinged with deep concern.

"I heard it."

An Youyu recalled the spot where she had fallen, which did seem quite dangerous. However, she felt a little wronged after being scolded by Lin Mo. She tugged at his sleeve and said, "I didn't mean to, it was just... an accident. I'll be more careful next time, please don't yell at me anymore."

"This is a reminder, not a threat."

The girl's attitude softened Lin Mo's stance instantly.

Actually, he didn't want to speak to An Youyu in that tone, but the situation just now was too dangerous, and even now, his back is still covered in cold sweat.

"Never mind, my face doesn't hurt anymore."

After this little incident, Lin Mo lost interest in teasing the girl. He pressed her down onto the stool to his left, randomly picked a book from the pile of documents on the table, and handed it to her. "Read a book."

"…oh."

An Youyu didn't dare to argue and obediently followed Lin Mo's instructions, opening the book and quickly reading it.

Recalling Lin Mo's frightened expression just now, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

A smile played on her lips, outshining the magnificent glow of the sunset outside the window.

After dinner, Lin Mo drove An Youyu home as usual. As the day of the car accident in his previous life drew closer, his nerves became increasingly tense.

Seeing that Lin Mo remained silent the whole way, An Youyu lowered her head and looked at the bluestone slabs under her feet like a child who had made a mistake, taking one step at a time.

Compared to usual, there was less excitement.

Lin Mo could naturally sense the girl's changing emotions, and his pace slowed down slightly.

This caused An Youyu, who was following behind him, to crash straight into him. Since the speed was relatively slow, there was no danger.

She stood there blankly, touched her forehead, and looked up at Lin Mo, who was still standing there. "Why...why aren't you moving?"

Lin Mo raised his right hand and ruffled An Youyu's hair. "Are you unhappy?"

An Youyu shook her head slightly, a hint of shyness flashing across her eyes.

From the moment Lin Mo raised his hand, she had already guessed the outcome. Moreover, his movements were not fast, and if she wanted to dodge, she could have done so.
