My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"go!"

Before Yan Tianzong could finish speaking, Jiang Xiao quickly got into the car.

Yan Tianzong smiled with interest at this, muttering to himself, "This little girl named An Youyu is quite something, actually making the Second Young Master so concerned..."

At nine o'clock in the morning, Jiang Xiao stood downstairs with a gloomy face. "This An Youyu is quite pretty, how can she have no shame at all? She actually dares to live in Lin Mo's house, what a slut!"

Yan Tianzong frowned and reminded him, "Second Young Master, anger will affect your judgment. Don't just listen to what I taught you before and forget it. Even if you can't remain calm in the face of disaster, you must maintain basic rationality."

His words carried a subtle hint of reprimand.

Jiang Xiao realized his lapse in composure and bowed his head respectfully in apology: "I will remember your teachings and will never do it again."

Seeing Jiang Xiao's sincere attitude in admitting his mistake, Yan Tianzong's attitude softened a bit. "Second Young Master, you are already eighteen years old, and there are only two years left until the family election. Although you are excellent now, you are still far from reaching the ideal level. You should be very clear about what the eldest young master has done over the years."

"Given the power you currently possess, it will be extremely difficult for you to defeat the eldest son in the family election two years from now; therefore, these two years are your only hope, and you must become stronger within this limited time."

"Yes!"

Jiang Xiao respectfully agreed and explained in a low voice, "I am also very clear about what the master said; in my opinion, it is better to use two years to strengthen ourselves to win over talents, after all, our own evolution is ultimately limited."

"Indeed."

Yan Tianzong bowed his head. "Therefore, before the Second Young Master has won the other party over, it is best to be careful about your attitude. Geniuses are all arrogant."

Jiang Xiao frowned. "An Youyu is different. This girl... I'm determined to have her!"

"Oh?"

Yan Tianzong's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he sighed with great emotion, "In all these years, this is the first time I have seen the Second Young Master like this. Since that's the case, then I will lend you a hand."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiao was overjoyed. "Please speak, Master."

Yan Tianzong leaned down and whispered something in Jiang Xiao's ear. Jiang Xiao's eyes gradually brightened. "Let's do it this way. Prepare the gift!"

……

"Knock Knock-"

In the living room, Lin Shu was sitting on the sofa, engrossed in reading a cookbook, when a sudden knock on the door disturbed her thoughts. She got up and went to the door.

After opening the door and seeing the boy outside, she asked in confusion, "Who are you looking for?"

"Lin Shu, Aunt Lin, right?"

Jiang Xiao changed his previous arrogant attitude and greeted Lin Shu politely.

Lin Shu narrowed his eyes, his thoughts racing. When he noticed the two boxes of sea cucumber gelatin in Jiang Xiao's hand, he already had a guess in his mind.

Sea cucumber gelatin is a top-grade tonic, and ordinary people may not have even heard of it.

"Jiang Xiao?"

Upon hearing the other party directly state his name, Jiang Xiao was taken aback. His previous doubts instantly cleared up, and he couldn't help but re-examine Lin Shu before offering a polite smile: "Ms. Lin, do you know me?"

"do not know."

Lin Shu showed no intention of letting Jiang Xiao into the house. He leaned lazily against the door frame and said casually, "However, I have heard of the Jiang family, a first-class family, a few times."

Jiang Xiao's eyes widened in shock. This woman not only knew his name but also clearly explained his background. She was obviously not a simple person.

Logically speaking, such a person shouldn't exist in a small place like Jingchuan.

"Ms. Lin is indeed remarkable."

Now that his identity was known to the other party, Jiang Xiao decided not to hide it anymore. "I am Jiang Xiao, the second son of the Jiang family. I apologize for coming uninvited today, Ms. Lin. May I ask if you may come to your esteemed establishment for a cup of tea to quench my thirst?"

Lin Shu smiled, "I'm afraid that won't work."

She knew perfectly well why Jiang Xiao had come here today; his true intentions were clearly not what they seemed.

Even though he was rejected, Jiang Xiao wasn't angry. Before figuring out Lin Shu's identity, he didn't want to offend this mysterious woman. "In that case, forget it."

As he spoke, he placed the two boxes of sea cucumber gelatin he was holding at the doorway, saying, "This is a small token of my appreciation. I will come to bother you again another day."

After saying that, he decisively turned and left.

As Jiang Xiao reached the corner of the stairs, Lin Shu suddenly spoke up, "I prefer quiet and hate being disturbed."

Upon hearing these six words, Jiang Xiao stopped and looked up. Lin Shu had already closed the door, ignoring the two boxes of sea cucumber gelatin at the doorway.

Jiang Xiao's face darkened instantly. He had given the other party plenty of face during their conversation, but the other party didn't take him seriously and showed disrespect in every way.

"Fine, I'd like to see just how powerful you are!"

After stepping out of the building, Yan Tianzong, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward and asked, "Second Young Master, have you seen that girl named An Youyu?"

"No."

Yan Tianzong was somewhat surprised, "Isn't she at the Lin family's house?"

"I was turned away."

Jiang Xiao's eyes gleamed. "Master, this Lin Shu is no ordinary person."

Yan Tianzong was taken aback. "Not simple? What makes you say that?"

"She immediately recognized me."

Upon hearing this, Yan Tianzong frowned and his expression changed. A few seconds later, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Jiang Xiao and said, "Second Young Master, I will find out the other party's identity as soon as possible."

Jiang Xiao nodded, a slow smile playing on his lips. "Who would have thought that such a small place as Jingchuan would be full of hidden talents? I'm rather curious about Lin Shu's background. Perhaps this trip to Jingchuan will yield some unexpected results..."

Chapter 150 A Silent Loss

"Knock Knock-"

Lin Shu entered the room and immediately noticed her son's lifeless expression.

"What's going on here?"

Lin Mo pointed to the six test papers in front of him, looked up at the clock on the wall, and sighed repeatedly, "It's only been less than an hour, and I've already lost six times. I'm almost numb."

"If you are not good enough, don't blame others or fate."

Lin Shu came up behind An Youyu, gently pressed her hands on the girl's shoulders, and teased her softly, "You can't even beat a fish, don't you feel embarrassed?"

"I……"

Seeing his mother talking without any real understanding of the situation, Lin Mo rolled his eyes, put down his pen, stood up and offered her a chair. "Come on, if you're so capable, you come and try. What do you mean you can't even beat Xiaoyuer? You have no idea how freakish this girl is!"

"Pooh--"

An Youyu looked annoyed and protested in a low voice, "How can you describe someone like that? Besides, it's not like I wanted to compare myself to you. You were the one who insisted on comparing yourself to me, so you can't blame me."

"I was complimenting you."

"I don't want that kind of praise."

"..."

Lin Mo rubbed his temples, and noticing the smile on his mother's face, he coughed lightly, "Um... Mom, why don't you chat with Yu'er for a while? I think I ate too much this morning, so I'm going out for a walk."

After saying that, he left quickly without waiting for his mother's consent.

The moment he closed the door, Lin Mo's expression changed instantly. After noticing the two boxes of sea cucumber gelatin on the left side of the door, he quickly went downstairs.

As soon as Lin Mo came downstairs, he noticed Jiang Xiao, who was about to leave a dozen meters away. "Hey, what are you doing at my house?"

While he was doing his homework in his room, he heard noises outside and faintly heard Jiang Xiao's voice. Being full was just an excuse; he really wanted to confirm whether the person who came was Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao stopped and turned around. When he saw Lin Mo, his eyes instantly turned extremely unfriendly. He didn't answer Lin Mo's question, but instead questioned, "Why is An Youyu living in your house?"

While Jiang Xiao was speaking, Lin Mo had been observing his expression. Upon hearing the question, he calmly walked up to Jiang Xiao and asked, "What's it to you?"

He crossed his arms, his smile tinged with sarcasm. "Where An Youyu wants to live is her prerogative. Aren't you being a bit too nosy?"

Jiang Xiao waved her sleeve, her expression indifferent. "I thought she was an extraordinary girl, but now it seems she's just a pretty face and a shameless slut who doesn't respect herself."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo looked down at his right hand, and the next second, without warning, he chose to make his move, throwing a punch at Jiang Xiao's face.

The two were less than a meter apart. Faced with Lin Mo's sudden attack, Jiang Xiao stood still and lightly grabbed Lin Mo's fist when it was less than a foot away from his face.

In an instant, Lin Mo felt as if his hand was tightly bound by a pair of vises, and he couldn't even pull his hand back.

With a gentle flick of Jiang Xiao's wrist, Lin Mo instantly lost his balance and rolled uncontrollably on the ground several times. He had no fewer than ten abrasions on his arm, and his wrist, in particular, was slightly deformed and clearly dislocated.

"You actually dared to lay a hand on me? Who gave you the guts? You piece of trash!"

Lin Mo looked at his wrist, his expression unchanged, as if he felt no pain. He smiled lightly and said, "I didn't realize you were so capable. Not bad."

After saying that, he walked straight toward the entrance of the residential area. He paused as he passed Jiang Xiao. "Although talking nonsense is useless, I still have to tell you that I've remembered this debt."

There was no hysteria, only calm.

Jiang Xiao scoffed dismissively, watching Lin Mo's retreating figure, and coldly mocked, "What a load of rubbish..."

Yan Tianzong, who had witnessed Lin Mo's performance, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "This young man is no ordinary person!"

Jiang Xiao looked surprised. "Master, this kid doesn't deserve your praise. In my opinion, he's just a piece of trash."

"No."

Yan Tianzong disagreed with Jiang Xiao's statement. He clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Second Young Master, if possible, I think you can win over this young man named Lin Mo. Believe me, he will definitely bring you unexpected surprises."

Jiang Xiao's face was full of disbelief. "Master, I don't mean to disbelieve you. I really can't see anything special about Lin Mo. Apart from being stubborn, he's useless. Stubbornness without strength is nothing but foolishness."

Yan Tianzong smiled, narrowing his eyes. "Second Young Master, do you know anything about Lin Mo?"

"not interested."

"I think you should take a look..."

……

After leaving the residential area, Lin Mo went to a nearby clinic. After more than ten minutes of treatment, his dislocated wrist was set. Throughout the entire treatment process, he remained silent, a reaction that even amazed the treating doctor.

"Young man, don't you feel any pain?"

"Fortunately."

Lin Mo's expression was indifferent, but deep in his eyes was a dark and gloomy look.

Jiang Xiao insulted An Youyu in front of him, and instead of helping An Youyu get justice, he suffered a silent loss at Jiang Xiao's hands.

Today's events made Lin Mo realize his own shortcomings.
