My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Lin Mo's eyes focused, and a smile appeared in his dark pupils. "Little Fish, I really didn't mean anything by it."

An Youyu got up, walked past Lin Mo to the corridor, took the schoolbag hanging on the side of the table, and while tidying up his review materials, said, "Liar, tell me the truth, are you thinking about that boy named Jiang Xiao?"

"Oh? You know that?"

Lin Mo touched his face and sighed, "One is influenced by one's company; the ancients were right!"

An Youyu stopped what she was doing, tilting her head in confusion. "What are you talking about?"

"Thinking back to how good I used to be at lying, I wouldn't say I was on par with an Oscar-winning actor, but I was pretty close. But now, after being with you for so long, my skills have declined day by day, and now I'm as bad as you."

After venting his frustrations, Lin Mo shamelessly grabbed An Youyu's slender wrist. "Little Yu'er, all of this is because of you. You have to take responsibility!"

"Responsible for? Responsible for what?"

"The responsibility for the rest of my life."

Air……

Suddenly, everything went quiet!

Chapter 122 My son has a big face!

"What...what are you talking about?"

An Youyu's mind was like a broken record, constantly replaying Lin Mo's words, and her face grew hotter and hotter uncontrollably.

She's not stupid; she can understand such an obvious hint.

Lin Mo stood up and leaned against the table, his dark pupils shimmering, and teased in a low voice, "Little Fish, what's wrong with you?"

"What... happened to me?"

An Youyu shyly turned her head away, her hands unconsciously clenching Lin Mo's schoolbag.

Don't make it too obvious that you lack confidence!

A smile appeared in Lin Mo's eyes. "Nothing much, just that my face is a little red."

“I…you…”

It would have been better if she hadn't said that, because once she did, An Youyu's already burning cheeks became even hotter, and she stammered, "Don't say things like that in the future. Didn't you say... we're just classmates?"

"Yes."

Lin Mo asked knowingly, "Isn't that right?"

"Then you just..."

"Besides being classmates, we're also friends. Isn't it only natural for friends to help and take care of each other?"

"you……"

Knowing she was no match for Lin Mo in eloquence, An Youyu glared at him in embarrassment and anger, quickly stuffed the review materials on the table into her bag and handed them to Lin Mo. She then turned to look at the student on duty sweeping the floor and whispered a reminder: "It's time to go home."

"it is good."

Lin Mo took the schoolbag, his smile almost tangible.

He was very satisfied with their current warm and harmonious daily life, but Jiang Xiao's sudden appearance today shattered this beautiful situation.

The Gu Insect Project?

Fine, he'll see what happens next!

As usual, after dinner, Lin Mo took An Youyu home.

Upon arriving outside the residential area, Lin Mo stopped, looked up at the dark sky and the newly emerging moon, and couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing the sound, An Youyu, who was walking ahead, turned around and saw Lin Mo standing there. She turned back to Lin Mo and looked at him with a hint of concern in her clear eyes. "What's wrong? If you have something bothering you, you can share it with me."

Lin Mo withdrew his gaze. "Share with you?"

"Correct."

An Youyu met his gaze, her expression extremely serious. "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone else."

Lin Mo chuckled inwardly, "Silly girl, I don't have any worries."

"Then why did you sigh just now?"

"There was no sigh, just a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of deep emotion or reflection)."

"Feeling sentimental?"

An Youyu's eyes sparkled with curiosity. Her hands, which had been gripping her backpack straps, fell naturally to her sides. She raised her fair face and stared at Lin Mo. "What are you reminiscing about?"

She looked up, he looked down.

"Some scenery, once missed, is truly missed; but I have the chance to come back again, which makes me feel a little sentimental."

These words left An Youyu completely bewildered, and she raised an eyebrow slightly. "What do you mean?"

"you guess."

"You're making me guess again? Why are you treating baby fish like children?"

Meeting the girl's resentful gaze, Lin Mo smiled, "Little Fish, may I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

"I think being a child is great, so why are you so resistant to it?"

An Youyu smiled faintly, and as the surrounding light gradually dimmed, her bright eyes shone even brighter. "Youyu doesn't want to be a child."

"reason?"

"Adults can earn money, and I want to earn lots and lots of money to help the director renovate the orphanage, buy new clothes and toys for the younger children, and if possible, I want to help more orphans like me..."

Once the topic came up, the girl changed completely and became very talkative.

Lin Mo listened patiently, the doting look in his eyes gradually turning into heartache. After An Youyu finished speaking, he gently asked, "Your goal is very good. Can I help you?"

"Need not."

An Youyu was somewhat surprised by Lin Mo's request. She lowered her head and thought for a moment before finally shaking her head and refusing, "These things all require money. The money you earn is yours and shouldn't be used on me. I can earn my own money."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo did not insist any further.

Some things cannot be forced.

There's no need to force it; just let things take their natural course.

He and this girl are classmates now, but who knows what will happen in the future.

"Tomorrow is Saturday, don't sleep in."

"Ok?"

Seeing Lin Mo suddenly bring this up, An Youyu asked, puzzled, "Do we have tutoring tomorrow?"

"No."

Lin Mo raised his hand and flicked the girl's nose with annoyance, "It hasn't been long, and you've already forgotten what we agreed on?"

"Huh? Oh."

Such an intimate gesture caused the shyness that had just subsided in An Youyu to return, and she quickly looked down at her feet, "That..."

"Want to back out?"

"No."

An Youyu bit her lip lightly, "I understand."

"That's good."

Lin Mo gently punched her head with his right hand. "Okay, that's settled then. I'm going back now."

An Youyu didn't say anything. Only when she could barely hear Lin Mo's footsteps did she slowly raise her head, gazing at the receding figure, and murmured her complaint, "Everyone says this will stunt your growth, but I just can't remember..."

…………

Back home, Lin Mo didn't go back to his room to study as usual. Instead, he went to his mother's room and knocked.

After about ten seconds, the door opened.

Lin Shu turned around and sat down on the edge of the bed, leaning against the headboard. She picked up an ancient book and continued reading, asking without looking up, "Did you need something?"

"Have."

Lin Mo nodded in acknowledgment without any attempt to hide it.

Sensing the seriousness in her son's tone, Lin Shu put down the ancient book in her hand and looked up in surprise. "Oh? So serious? That's rare. Tell me, what is it?"

Lin Mo sat down next to his mother and said in a deep voice, "Mom, a transfer student joined my class today."

"and then?"

"It seems like they have a powerful background. Not only did they get the principal to break the rules for them, but they also specifically asked Teacher Yan to arrange for Xiaoyuer to meet with this transfer student. I was there too. If nothing unexpected happens, they must be after Xiaoyuer."

"Oh?"

After listening, Lin Shu smiled knowingly, "You came here for Xiaoyuer? Does Xiaoyuer know them?"

"do not know."

Lin Shu narrowed her eyes and asked meaningfully, "Son, what do you want me to do by telling me all this?"

Lin Mo took a deep breath and spoke her mind honestly, "Mom, could you help me find out about the other person's background? This transfer student seems a bit unusual to me."

Lin Shu smiled, a hint of teasing in her voice, "Why are you asking about this? They're here for Yu'er, what's it to you? Aren't you and Yu'er classmates?"

What's wrong with the classmates' relationship?

Lin Mo retorted without changing his expression, "Can't classmates show some concern for each other? The other person clearly doesn't seem like a good person, so of course I can't just stand by and watch Xiaoyuer go astray."

"Ah--"

Upon hearing this answer, Lin Shu sneered repeatedly, "Xiao Mo, I've realized it, your mouth... is too stubborn!"

"Mom, I don't understand what you're saying."

"Not only is he stubborn, but he's also incredibly good at pretending!"

Lin Shu rolled her eyes at her son. "Alright, I'll call your principal later and ask."
