Everything was fine just a few minutes ago, so why is An Youyu suddenly feeling unwell?
Could it be that this little girl has some hidden illness that she hasn't told me about?
The thought of this possibility filled Lin Mo with deep worry.
No, we absolutely have to take her to the hospital for a full checkup...
Seeing Lin Mo frown, An Youyu couldn't bring herself to say the words of refusal she had prepared, and could only repeat what she had just said, "I'm fine, I really don't need to go to the hospital."
Lin Mo let go of his hands, hung the two schoolbags around his neck, and squatted down on the ground under An Youyu's gaze.
An Youyu blinked blankly, "What?"
"Aren't you feeling unwell? Get on, I'll carry you home."
"Need not……"
"Rejection is invalid!"
Lin Mo turned around and gave An Youyu a look, his tone carrying a hint of domineering, "Come on up, don't be reckless."
"But……"
There weren't many pedestrians passing by at the moment, but since it was outside, An Youyu felt conflicted and wanted to refuse. However, when she met Lin Mo's unquestionable gaze, she nodded as if possessed.
She regretted it after ordering.
what?
Am I possessed?
"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and come up."
Lin Mo's urging became the final straw that broke An Youyu's back.
After hesitating for a moment, she timidly wrapped her arms around Lin Mo's neck, leaned against his back, buried her head like an ostrich, and felt her face burning.
Lin Mo carried her on his back and walked quickly toward home, whispering as he went, "Little Yu'er, if you feel unwell in any way, be sure to tell me. Don't hide it from me because it's too much trouble or for any other reason."
"It's nothing really."
An Youyu, clinging to Lin Mo's back, replied in a barely audible voice, "I just had a sudden heart palpitation, I don't know why, you don't need to worry about me."
Hearing this answer, Lin Mo's tense heart relaxed a little, and he quickened his pace as he faced the setting sun.
An Youyu felt a sense of peace and security as she sat on Lin Mo's back. Before she knew it, her eyes were wet with tears.
After returning home, Lin Mo carefully placed An Youyu on the sofa. "Rest for a bit, I'll go get you a glass of water."
"Ah."
Before even entering the room, An Youyu had already wiped her eyes. After the brief respite on the way, the sudden discomfort she had felt earlier had mostly disappeared.
Lin Mo turned around and noticed his mother leaning against the kitchen door. Lin Shu was staring at her son with a teasing look on her face. She didn't say anything, turned around and went into the kitchen to pour a glass of water and came to the sofa. "Yu'er, drink some water."
"Thank you, Auntie."
An Youyu was unsure whether Lin Shu had seen Lin Mo carrying her into the room, and she couldn't help but feel nervous.
Lin Shu sensed the change in the girl's emotions and smiled calmly, "You and Xiao Mo worked hard on your exams today. Auntie made you some chicken soup, and oh yes, some braised prawns. Be good and wait, dinner will be served soon."
"Thank you for your hard work, Auntie."
An Youyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed she hadn't been discovered.
"It's not hard work. What's so hard about cooking?"
Lin Shu got up and walked towards the kitchen. When she was almost at the kitchen door, she suddenly stopped and turned back to her son by the coffee table. "Xiao Mo, I accidentally cut my hand when I was cutting chicken. I can't get my hand wet for now. Can you help me wash the vegetables?"
"it is good."
After entering the kitchen, Lin Mo looked around and asked, "Mom, there aren't any vegetables to wash?"
Lin Shu turned to look at her son and said meaningfully, "Xiao Mo, your relationship with Yu'er has been developing quite rapidly lately, hasn't it?"
"Fast?"
Lin Mo looked bewildered. "Aren't we just ordinary classmates? Does this kind of relationship need to be developed?"
Lin Shu was furious at her son's feigned ignorance. "I don't have the habit of being stubborn, and neither does Su Wenyang. Who did you inherit your stubbornness from?!"
"A tough talk?"
Lin Mo looked puzzled. "Mom, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Lin Shu: "..."
Meeting his mother's furious gaze, Lin Mo chuckled awkwardly, "Don't beat around the bush, just ask what you want to ask."
Seeing that her son had put it this way, Lin Shu simply asked the question that had been bothering her, "I saw you carrying Yu'er back just now. She shouldn't be doing that, given her personality. What exactly happened?"
"It's actually nothing."
"Say!"
"okay."
When his mother asked about this, Lin Mo's smile disappeared, replaced by a serious expression. He briefly described everything that had happened on his way home from school, and then shared his guesses.
After listening, Lin Shu frowned, "A hidden illness?"
"This is just my guess; I'm not entirely sure what the actual situation is."
Lin Mo asked, "Mom, do you have any connections at the hospital? If possible, Xiaoyuer and I can take a day off tomorrow and take her to the hospital for a check-up. We're really worried about not being sure about these things."
"Okay, I'll go arrange it now."
Since An Youyu's health was at stake, Lin Shu didn't dare to be careless. She pointed to the pot on the gas stove and said, "Look at the chicken soup. You can turn off the heat in ten minutes. Remember to add some salt before you turn it off."
"Leave this to me, you can go and do your work."
After his mother left, Lin Mo let out a long sigh, his expression filled with emotion.
Having a mom like that is wonderful!
A few minutes later, Lin Shu returned to the kitchen. Before her son could ask, she raised her hand and gave an OK sign, softly instructing, "Leave the kitchen work to me. Yu'er is asleep on the sofa; go and watch over her."
"it is good."
Lin Mo agreed and was about to leave, but he put his foot down again, staring at his mother with a half-smile. "Mom, I have something I want to ask you. Is that alright?"
"Oh?"
Lin Shu raised an eyebrow. "What do you want to ask?"
Lin Mo crossed his arms and lowered his voice considerably, "Why are you so good to Yu'er? Even if Yu'er is lovable, this kind of meticulous care from you is really a bit excessive. You must... have other intentions, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Shu narrowed her eyes and gave her son a deep look. "That's right, I do have ulterior motives for being nice to Yu'er."
"is it?"
Lin Mo smiled knowingly, "Could you tell your son what your intentions are?"
"It's not impossible."
Lin Shu smiled and said calmly, "Xiao Mo, you know that I only have one son, and I've always wanted a daughter. Yu'er is so outstanding, and she's an orphan. I want to adopt her as my daughter, the kind of daughter who's registered on the household register."
"cough--"
Lin Mo's face instantly stiffened. "No, I don't agree!"
Lin Shu spread her hands, "You insisted on asking, and now you disagree with what I say. Isn't that a bit much?"
Hard-spoken, right?
She has plenty of ways to deal with this kid!
"No matter what you say, even if you beat me up, I will not agree to this!"
Lin Mo threw down those words and walked out with a dark expression.
As he reached the kitchen door, he suddenly remembered what his mother had said in the living room. He turned back to look at his mother's hands and kindly reminded her, "Mom, you just said in front of Xiaoyuer that you cut your hand. You should find a band-aid to cover it up, otherwise it will be too easy for them to find out."
"see through?"
Lin Shu slowly opened her left hand, which she had been holding tightly, revealing an eyebrow razor in her palm. To Lin Mo's astonishment, she expressionlessly used the razor to make a cut on her finger, and blood gushed from the wound.
Throughout the entire process, she didn't even frown.
"How do fish recognize this?"
"..."
At this moment, two words involuntarily surfaced in Lin Mo's mind.
This move...
Absolutely!
Chapter 166 Nightmare!
In the bright living room, the mother and son sat on opposite sides, their gazes fixed on An Youyu in the middle. She was asleep, her eyelashes fluttering and her brows furrowing from time to time.
Lin Shu broke the silence first, tentatively guessing, "Could it be that the fish is having a nightmare?"
"do not know."
Lin Mo looked down at the pretty face so close to his, his eyes filled with tenderness. "It must have been tough for her. She's come this far all by herself all these years. If I were her, I could never have done as well as her."
Lin Shu looked at her son as if she were seeing him for the first time, muttering under her breath, "It's really strange that you would admit that someone is better than you?"
Lin Mo was both amused and exasperated. "Mom, do you really think your son is so petty? I used to deny that others were better than me simply because I was confident that I was no less capable than anyone else."
"Oh?"
Lin Shu raised an eyebrow with interest. "And now?"
"Now……"
Lin Mo slowly withdrew his gaze, recalling the various memories of spending time with An Youyu over the past three months, and sighed from the bottom of his heart, "Little Fish is different from others."
"What's the difference?"
Faced with her mother's questioning, Lin Mo's eyes narrowed into slits involuntarily. "Other girls are incomparable to her. In my opinion, there are two kinds of girls in the world. The first kind is Xiaoyuer, and the second kind is all the other girls."
Such high praise brought a smile to Lin Shu's face, and she followed up by asking, "So, what kind of girlfriend do you want to find in the future?"
