My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Three consecutive three-pointers made him feel a pang of regret.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let Lin Mo go first.

"3:1, two goals left."

Lin Mo picked up the ball and tossed it to Jiang Xiao, saying, "You need to keep it up."

"Shut up!"

Jiang Xiao scolded him, then walked to the three-point line and jumped to shoot.

"Shh-"

A crisp sound of the wire entering the net rang out.

Three points, hit.

Jiang Xiao's expression was still not good. If Lin Mo maintained his perfect shooting accuracy, there would only be one result no matter how many goals he scored.

lose!

The thought of having to crawl around the track if he lost made Jiang Xiao's breath catch in his throat.

impossible!

Even professional players can't make every three-pointer!

The thought had barely formed in his mind when Lin Mo, who had returned to the three-point line, already took the shot.

"Shh-"

Three-pointer, hit!

Score 4:2!

Jiang Xiao's face was ashen, and he was practically grinding his teeth to powder.

How evil!

He would lose if he scored just one more point.

Jiang Xiao's thoughts raced. His long-term pampered life made it impossible for him to accept the prospect of making a fool of himself in public. Just as Lin Mo was picking up the ball and passing by, he frowned deeply. "Um... I'm feeling a bit unwell. Let's call it a day and finish the game another time."

After saying that, he left quickly without giving Lin Mo any chance to react.

"Excuse me, excuse me..."

Because of the distance, the students from Class 2 on the sidelines had no idea what was happening, and they just stared at each other blankly.

After Jiang Xiao passed through the crowd and was about to leave, she heard Gu Fan's voice.

"Is this a plan to renege on the debt?"

Jiang Xiao paused, turned to look at Gu Fan who was approaching, and said, "What right does a defeated opponent have to speak?"

Gu Fan wasn't angry. He chuckled and admitted, "That's right, I am indeed your defeated opponent, but that's no excuse for you to renege on your debt. With your level of skill, you dare to compare yourself to Brother Mo? Even if I gave you a chance, you wouldn't be able to do it!"

"you……"

Jiang Xiao glared at him and vehemently denied it, saying, "Don't forget, you lost to me just now too, and I didn't make you crawl around the track, did I?"

"Then let's climb! Let's climb together, are you in?"

As he spoke, Gu Fan lay down on the lawn in full view of everyone, wiggling his butt in a comical manner, "Want to come along?"

Jiang Xiao stood there for a few seconds, then walked away without saying a word.

"Shh-"

Before he had gone far, Jiang Xiao heard a series of hisses from behind. He quickened his pace and began to harbor a deep resentment towards Lin Mo.

What happened today...

It's not over yet!!!

Chapter 164 Not of This Era!

Gu Fan got up from the ground, brushed the grass clippings off his clothes, and complained to Lin Mo who was walking over, "Brother Mo, this Jiang Xiao is shameless. Are you just going to let him get away with this?"

"if not?"

Lin Mo's question startled Gu Fan, who replied without hesitation, "Of course we'll bring him back and make him crawl around the playground. To be honest, I've been annoyed with this kid for a long time."

"Pull it back?"

Hearing this, Lin Mo's lips twitched. "Even the two of us combined are no match for Jiang Xiao. What do you mean?"

"Are you kidding me? How could that be!"

Lin Mo didn't want to explain anything to Gu Fan, since he couldn't very well tell Gu Fan that he had been beaten up by Jiang Xiao.

"Alright, let's just let this matter go."

Gu Fan didn't say anything more, but patted Lin Mo's shoulder hard, "Brother Mo, thanks for today."

"We're all brothers, why are you saying such formal things?"

Lin Mo shook his head, turned around and walked towards An Youyu, who was not far away. Before he could even speak, An Youyu spoke up.

"I was a little bored in the classroom, so I came to the playground... to relax. It has nothing to do with you."

The familiar misunderstanding made Lin Mo chuckle, and he nodded in agreement, saying, "No need to explain, I believe you."

An Youyu turned her head away and said in a very soft voice, "Your basketball skills... are getting better and better."

"Of course!"

Lin Mo chuckled, "People always need to improve. After all, I'm a basketball prodigy who was invited by the PE teacher to play professionally, so improvement is only natural."

"cut--"

An Youyu scoffed at Lin Mo's boasting and muttered softly, "I should have known better than to praise you."

Lin Mo smiled and pointed to the northwest corner of the playground, "There are fewer people there, want to go sit down?"

An Youyu hesitated for a moment, then nodded almost imperceptibly.

At the same time, many eyes turned towards the two of them, most of them filled with envy.

Lin Mo was already used to this.

It's perfectly normal to want to stand beside An Youyu and endure such gazes.

The two sat down on a bench next to the horizontal bar. Because there were many people on the playground, An Youyu deliberately kept some distance from Lin Mo.

Lin Mo looked at the girl sitting at the other end of the bench and complained softly, "Little Fish, you don't need to stay so far away from me, do you?"

"There are too many people..."

Hearing this, Lin Mo clicked his tongue and reluctantly complied with the girl's wish, taking the initiative to ask, "The third mock exam is tomorrow, are you confident?"

Upon hearing this, An Youyu looked up in surprise, her eyes blinking rapidly.

Lin Mo's expression stiffened. "What kind of look is that? Can't I even ask?"

"can."

An Youyu parted her lips slightly, "It's just... I feel like I should be the one asking this question."

Lin Mo: "..."

It’s so infuriating!

He rolled his eyes in annoyance and moved closer to An Youyu. "Fine, then you ask."

An Youyu couldn't help but chuckle, but still cooperated quite well, "The third mock exam is tomorrow, are you confident?"

"Have!"

Lin Mo's eyes shone with unparalleled confidence. "Do you still remember our bet?"

"remember."

An Youyu nodded gently, "It's 500 yuan based on grades."

"That's right..."

"You're doomed to lose."

"..."

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Lin Mo rubbed his temples with a look of utter despair and gently reminded him, "Little Fish, you didn't take what I told you before to heart at all, did you?"

"What?"

"One should be humble and not always act like Versailles."

"I do not have……"

A hint of grievance flashed deep in An Youyu's eyes as she weakly explained, "I'm humble with others, but I don't want to be humble in front of you. Aren't we... good friends? Can't good friends even tell each other the truth?"

Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat; he never expected the girl to say such a thing.

In the girl's heart...

Is he different from others?

He's different from others!

Can’t be wrong!

Overwhelmed with emotion, Lin Mo realized that after nearly three months of getting along, he had finally gained a considerable amount of experience.

Although the little thing's heart is still closed, it has now opened a crack compared to its previous tightness.

In the following time, Lin Mo only needed to gently widen the gap gradually, until it was big enough for him to walk in...

"Yes, of course."

Lin Mo casually placed his left hand on the back of the bench, and then, taking advantage of An Youyu's inattention, quickly ruffled her hair. "From now on, just say whatever you think in front of me. Don't hold back. This time it was my fault, and I apologize."

"Admit your mistake, but don't lay a hand on me..."

An Youyu said this, but the corners of her eyes involuntarily curved upwards.

The sunlight at four o'clock in the afternoon was less scorching and more gentle.
