My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"Cough-cough-"

Just then, Jiang Xiao, who was sitting in the first row, coughed loudly a few times, "Teacher Yan, didn't you forget to call out one name?"

"No."

Yan Shiming didn't even glance at Jiang Xiao before striding out of the classroom.

Seeing this, Zhou Wenhao, Jiang Xiao's deskmate, trembled uncontrollably, thinking to himself, "Serves you right for pretending!"

Jiang Xiao keenly noticed Zhou Wenhao's subtle movements, her eyes turning slightly cold. "What are you laughing at?"

"No, it's nothing."

Zhou Wenhao shrank his neck. "My test results were alright this time, so I'm a little happy."

Jiang Xiao coldly questioned, "You only scored 708 points, what's there to be happy about?"

"708 points...aren't you happy about that?"

Zhou Wenhao felt extremely wronged and explained with little confidence, "Not everyone is as good as you and Lin Mo. My score is already a high score that most people can only envy."

Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback. After watching An Youyu and Lin Mo walk out of the classroom one after the other, he nudged Zhou Wenhao's arm and asked, "Why do you think An Youyu's grades were so bad this time? With her level, even if she had a bad day, it's impossible for her to have such an absurd performance."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenhao smiled dismissively, "Just take this score as a joke, don't take it seriously."

"Oh?"

Jiang Xiao became interested. "Why do you say that?"

"Because An Youyu can control the score."

Zhou Wenhao dared not hide anything and told him what he knew: "Ever since An Youyu transferred to No. 2 Middle School, her test scores have all been 68 points. Others may not know this, but I am the class's academic representative, so I have a deep memory of this. She either gets full marks or 68 points."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice, "An Youyu's score in the third mock exam was 272. That's for Chinese, Math, English, and Science, which is exactly four subjects. Her score in each subject was exactly 68. So just listen to her score and don't worry about it."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiao's expression became extremely interesting. "Controlling the score... is it possible to control it this accurately?"

"You don't understand, right?"

Zhou Wenhao spread his hands and said, "Actually, I don't understand either, but An Youyu is just that good. If you don't believe me, you can check An Youyu's scores for each subject online after school."

After saying this, he tore off a piece of paper, wrote down a string of numbers, and handed it to Jiang Xiao. "This is An Youyu's student ID number."

Jiang Xiao narrowed her eyes. "How did you know An Youyu's student ID number?"

"As the class's academic representative, it's not surprising that he knows An Youyu's student ID number, right?"

Hearing Zhou Wenhao's explanation, Jiang Xiao didn't ask any more questions. She took out her phone from the drawer and checked An Youyu's mock exam scores.

Just as Zhou Wenhao had predicted, he scored 68 points in every subject…

……

In the office.

Yan Shiming looked at An Youyu helplessly, and the silence lasted for a while. "You win."

He required An Youyu's scores to vary by no more than five points in each subject, but this girl managed to keep them consistently perfect, down to the last point...

Demon!

An Youyu smiled apologetically, somewhat embarrassed.

Lin Mo coughed lightly, trying to smooth things over, "That's amazing! Not everyone can control the score to this extent, I certainly can't."

"Teacher Yan, you've really struck gold this time! With the terrifying strength that Xiao An has shown so far, he's fully qualified to compete for even the top spot on the Phoenix Ranking. As the saying goes, 'When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.' At that time, you..."

"stop!"

Yan Shiming glared and puffed out his beard, saying, "So you think that when one attains enlightenment, even one's chickens and dogs ascend to heaven? Fine, you'd better explain yourself clearly today. In your opinion, am I a chicken or a dog?"

Lin Mo pursed his thin lips and said half-jokingly, "Isn't there a song? How does it go again... Right, 'You're so beautiful, chicken'..."

Chapter 182 A Coward

"Too beautiful?"

Yan Shiming's face darkened, and he glared through gritted teeth, "Kid, you're trying to frame me, aren't you?"

"Don't, don't be angry."

Noticing Yan Shiming's reaction, Lin Mo changed the subject: "Since you don't like chickens, teacher, then let's be dogs. I remember there are songs about dogs too, let me think about it... By the way, you're a pug that fell into a stinky ditch..."

After singing just two lines, Lin Mo suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist. Looking down, he saw that it was none other than An Youyu.

Why are you pinching me?

"Singing is prohibited."

An Youyu covered her face with one hand, looking both amused and helpless.

Yan Shiming glared at him angrily, "Lin Mo, you've gotten so bold as to think your grades are getting better and better. Now you even dare to tease the teachers, huh?"

"cough--"

Lin Mo chuckled awkwardly, denying it without batting an eye, "Teacher, you've misunderstood. How could I dare to tease you? I was just... joking with you, and also complimenting you!"

"A compliment?"

Yan Shiming laughed angrily, "Fine! You like praising me, huh? Well then, I'll let you have your fill of praise today. From now until lunchtime, you have to write an essay of no less than 10,000 words praising me. If you can't do that, don't blame me for being impolite."

"A 10,000-word essay?"

Lin Mo was dumbfounded, so he simply admitted defeat and said, "Teacher Yan, don't go through all that trouble, just beat me up."

Yan Shiming was quite helpless about Lin Mo's "what's the use" attitude. "Get lost. I get annoyed just looking at you."

"Got it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo grabbed An Youyu's hand without hesitation and quickly left.

Yan Shiming glanced at the two holding hands and was furious, but before he could reprimand them, the office had already disappeared.

"This brat..."

An Youyu was stunned as Lin Mo pulled her for a while. When she came to her senses, she immediately pulled her left hand back, her fair cheeks flushed red. "What are you doing? How could you be so inappropriate in front of the teacher?"

Lin Mo stopped and said calmly, "Little Fish, we're not only classmates, but also deskmates and good friends. We even have a teacher-student relationship. With so many connections, is it a problem to hold hands?"

"But this is a school, and the teacher was there just now..."

"no problem!"

Before An Youyu could finish speaking, Lin Mo interrupted her, shaking his head and saying, "I have always firmly believed in the principle that the innocent are innocent and the guilty are guilty; there is nothing between us, so why should we be so concerned about what others think?"

"I……"

An Youyu frowned. Faced with Lin Mo's questioning, her mind went blank for a moment, and she couldn't think of any rebuttal.

Seeing this, Lin Mo pressed on, saying, "Besides, we don't do this all the time. It's okay if it happens once in a while. I'll just be more careful next time. Is that alright?"

An Youyu unconsciously bit her lip, and after a long while, she slowly spoke, "Then... you have to keep your word, especially at school, you must be careful..."

"no problem!"

From an angle where An Youyu couldn't see, Lin Mo's mouth was stretched almost to the back of his ears.

They're really too easy to fool.

This silly goose...

The students in Class Two were surprised by An Youyu's mock exam results, but their surprise didn't last long, and they quickly threw themselves into their heavy studies.

A day passed quickly.

The moment the school bell rang, Jiang Xiao, who was sitting in the first row, stood up and glanced at the back of the classroom. Before the teacher had left, she walked out of the classroom alone.

This attitude made many students secretly unhappy.

Having received a warning from Yan Shiming, the instructor didn't say anything about it, packed up the textbook, and strode away.

"Can't you just not pretend?"

Gu Fan cursed under his breath, then slung his backpack over his shoulder and went to the back of the classroom. "Brother Mo, did you see that just now? This Jiang Xiao is so arrogant. He doesn't even respect the teachers. To be honest, I really want to beat him up."

At this point, he lowered his voice considerably and winked at Lin Mo, saying, "How about... we team up and pull off a heist?"

"Ah--"

Lin Mo put down his pen. "You can do it if you want, I'm not doing it; just a friendly reminder, Jiang Xiao is a good fighter, you'd better behave yourself."

"cut--"

This was the second time Gu Fan had heard similar words from Lin Mo, and he still maintained his disdainful attitude, "With his build, I could beat him to a pulp with just one hand!"

Lin Mo sighed softly, "I've given you all the advice I could, whether you listen or not is up to you; there's only a month left until the college entrance exam, you should focus your energy on reviewing."

Seeing that Lin Mo was not interested in his suggestion, Gu Fan did not press the matter. He had only said such things to vent his frustration. "Alright, for Brother Mo's sake, I'll let Jiang Xiao off the hook this time."

After Gu Fan left, Lin Mo slowly raised his eyes.

Beat up Jiang Xiao?

This isn't something we can do right now, but we can consider it later...

The playground of No. 2 Middle School.

Jiang Xiao waited and waited, but Lin Mo never arrived. As time passed, the gloom in his eyes grew stronger.

"You coward!"

…………

"Dinner was quite lavish tonight, wasn't it?"

Lin Mo looked at the table full of dishes and asked his mother with great curiosity, "Mom, is there something good happening?"

An Youyu blinked, her curiosity showing.

Lin Shu rolled her eyes. "The reason I made so many dishes is to celebrate for you and Yu'er. Congratulations on your excellent results in the third mock test."

As she spoke, she poured herself a glass of juice and raised it, saying, "Come on, let's clink glasses."

Upon hearing this, An Youyu pursed her lips, "Auntie, I...I have very bad grades..."

"Very bad?"
