"I think I just said..."

Before An Youyu could finish speaking, Lin Mo interrupted, "Don't say things too soon. It's still uncertain whether my mother will agree."

The girl blushed instantly and obediently shut her mouth.

shameful……

The two waited for about five or six minutes before Lin Shu finished her call. When she returned, she smiled apologetically and said, "Xiao Mo, Yu'er, I have some unexpected work-related issues and can't have dinner with you. You two eat, and then take a taxi home."

After saying that, she added with concern, "Xiao Mo, remember to keep an eye on the fish, and be careful when you're out there."

"it is good."

Hearing that his mother was leaving, Lin Mo patted his chest and assured her, "You can go without worry."

Lin Shu: "..."

That sounds a bit strange, doesn't it?

However, she didn't have the energy to argue with her son about these things, so she gave him a few casual words and left quickly.

After the car disappeared from their sight, Lin Mo chuckled, "Alright, now you can say what you didn't finish saying earlier."

An Youyu unconsciously pouted her lips and lightly slapped Lin Mo, "You just know how to tease me."

"There was no joking."

Lin Mo leaned close to the girl's ear, his tone full of sincerity, "Little Fish, you were so cute just now, I can never get enough of looking at you."

"Don't say it!"

An Youyu was both embarrassed and angry. She pointed to the hot pot restaurant across the street and said, "Let's go eat."

No, you should say "eat food".

"why?"

"Reduplicated words seem cuter."

"Reduplicated words?"

An Youyu looked up at Lin Mo, who was all smiles, and a strange look appeared on her flawless face. After a long while, she managed to choke out a sentence, "But it feels a little... disgusting."

"Ha ha--"

Lin Mo threw his head back and laughed, then naturally reached out and ruffled her hair. "Let's eat."

When crossing the street, An Youyu did something that Lin Mo didn't expect. When the pedestrian light turned green, she actually took Lin Mo's arm with both hands and didn't let go until they had crossed the street.

Lin Mo looked surprised and instinctively wanted to ask a question, but when he noticed the girl's slightly flushed cheeks, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

This little thing...

It seems to be slowly melting!

After entering the hot pot restaurant, Lin Mo requested a private room.

Just after we ordered the hot pot base and dishes, a loud, jarring construction noise came from next door.

Lin Mo frowned, and the waiter across from him asked, "Why is it so noisy next door?"

The waitress explained, "The next private room is under renovation, so it might be a little noisy. Please bear with us."

"Please change our private room."

The waitress smiled helplessly, "I'm really sorry, it's lunchtime right now and the restaurant is very busy. There are no private rooms available right now. If you two really can't stand it, you can wait in the lobby for a while. I will arrange a private room for you as soon as one becomes available. Is that alright?"

"fine."

An Youyu nudged Lin Mo's hand under the table, then smiled at the waitress, "Just get ready to serve the food."

Most of her face was covered by a mask, but her gentle and clear eyes still made the waitress pause in surprise.

Seeing that the other person was staring at her, An Youyu frowned. "Sister, is there anything else?"

"No, no, I'll go and have the kitchen prepare it right away."

After the waiter left, An Youyu looked apologetic and explained softly, "I'm sorry, Youyu took it upon herself to make this decision. Please don't take it to heart, okay?"

A gentle tone, a gentle person.

Seeing this, Lin Mo sighed, "Why are you always so formal? It's nothing serious, no need to apologize."

You should apologize.

An Youyu spoke softly, but her eyes held a stubbornness. She moved her chair closer to Lin Mo and said, "Inviting you to dinner is a matter of courtesy and reason, and I should ask for your opinion. Since I took it upon myself to do so, I must apologize to you."

"Stop!"

After Lin Mo called a halt, he voiced his doubts, "It's so noisy here, why do we have to put up with it? As consumers, we have the right to choose."

"It's not easy for business owners to run a shop..."

This reason caused Lin Mo to fall silent.

She is always thinking of others.

It's heartbreaking!

Seeing that Lin Mo didn't speak, An Youyu felt a pang of panic. "Are you... angry?"

"No."

Lin Mo pulled himself together, looked up, and asked with a smile, "Little Fish, do I really like getting angry that much?"

An Youyu's smile was charming and innocent, her whole being brimming with naivety. "It's good that you're not angry, otherwise, Youyu would have to use that trick you taught me to coax you again."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was filled with remorse.

If he had known this would happen, he would have just admitted that he was angry.

That way, you can also enjoy the girl's coquettishness... ugh, coaxing!

Before long, the broth and ingredients were all served.

After the waiter left the private room, An Youyu took off her mask, looked at the delicious food in front of her, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. "Let's eat! Let's eat!"

The little glutton's appearance was particularly obvious.

Lin Mo knew the girl especially liked spicy food, so when ordering the hot pot base, he specifically chose the extra spicy option.

He stared at the half-filled pot of chili oil and peppers, and sighed, reminding her, "Sister, the broth isn't even cooked yet. Are you planning to...?"

His voice abruptly stopped halfway through his sentence.

An Youyu picked up a chili pepper from the pot, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and her eyes curved slightly. "It smells so good."

"..."

Lin Mo swallowed hard, looking at An Youyu who was chewing chili peppers with surprise and doubt. "Will these dried red chilies smell good?"

An Youyu swallowed the chili pepper in her mouth and nodded her little head repeatedly. "It smells good! You can try it. This kind of chili pepper tastes great."

Lin Mo picked up a chili pepper with some skepticism and put it in his mouth. After chewing it once, his expression changed instantly. Without hesitation, he pulled over the trash can next to him, spat out the chili pepper, and then opened a bottle of mineral water and gulped it down.

After finishing the whole bottle of mineral water, I broke out in a sweat.

Noticing Lin Mo's actions, An Youyu was stunned. Then she remembered that Lin Mo seemed to be unable to eat spicy food, and a charming blush appeared on her fair cheeks.

It seems she tricked Lin Mo...

"cough--"

"It's okay, just give it a try."

Hearing the girl cough, Lin Mo waved his hand dismissively, indicating that he was fine.

Although he said that, a hint of bitterness was faintly revealed between his brows.

What will happen to this little one who can eat so much spicy food?

Is it possible...

Cook two pots of rice?

That’s not impossible!

After Lin Mo came up with a solution, his depressed mood was relieved. He wisely poured a bowl of water, preparing to rinse the food with it before eating.

no way!

He can work hard to catch up with An Youyu's grades, but when it comes to eating spicy food... well, forget it.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

"I'll accompany you."

An Youyu's pretty face turned red. "You can't go into the women's restroom. I can go by myself."

After saying that, she quickly put on her mask and left the private room.

Lin Mo clicked his tongue and muttered to himself, "It didn't say I had to go into the women's restroom. Waiting outside isn't illegal."

After An Youyu finished using the restroom, she passed by the private room next door that was being renovated and saw a young couple dancing inside. A waltz was playing on a cell phone on the floor next to them. She couldn't help but stop and lean over the door frame to watch.

The man was in his thirties, his clothes covered in dust and half-dry cement, but he had a pair of resolute eyes.

The woman was very young, with an elegant demeanor, beautiful features, and was dressed neatly, giving off a refined and demure air.

Compared to the men, the women's dance moves were very standard, with each movement controlled and executed with ease, silently showcasing the beauty of art.

After the dance ended, the two looked at each other and smiled.

After the two stopped, An Youyu couldn't help but clap her hands, "You danced so well!"

The world is never short of praise, but it lacks her courage to praise.

Hearing the noise, the two of them turned to look at the door. When they saw the little girl outside, their eyes flashed with surprise.

The woman asked with a smile, "Really?"

An Youyu nodded hurriedly, "Sister's dance moves are beautiful."

The woman smiled and asked, "How was your dancing, sir?"

An Youyu glanced at the man and said slowly, "Sister dances beautifully."

Not answering is an answer.
