My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Left with no other choice, he had to forcefully step forward and stop him, saying, "Little ancestor, can we not take them? This is your room, and these books were prepared for you. You can read them if you want, but why are you putting them in your clothes?"

An Youyu slowly came to her senses and weakly offered an explanation, "Um... I want to take it home..."

Lin Mo: "..."

Noticing Lin Mo's helpless expression, An Youyu lowered her head shyly, looking longingly at the books in her arms. Finally, she gritted her teeth and stomped her foot, returning the books to their original place. "I won't take them anymore, don't... be angry."

"That's right."

The girl's reluctant look made Lin Mo chuckle inwardly. He ruffled her hair with his large hand and said in a voice full of tenderness, "Little Fish, this will be your home from now on, okay?"

"Home……"

An Youyu slightly raised her chin, staring blankly at Lin Mo for a long while before finally looking away. "Isn't this... a bit inappropriate?"

"Nothing inappropriate."

Lin Mo looked around, a hint of teasing in his voice, "Take a close look at this room. My mother has clearly put a lot of thought into it. Why did she do this?"

An Youyu instinctively asked, "Why?"

The moment the words left her mouth, she already had the answer in her heart.

Why else?

They definitely want her to consider this place her home!

At that moment, she couldn't help but recall the scene of Lin Shu acting coquettishly yesterday, and her emotions were complicated yet deeply moved.

Both Lin Shu and Lin Mo were too good to her!

She was so good to him... she didn't know how to repay him...

Seeing the girl fall silent, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Little Fish, don't let my mother down, and don't feel embarrassed."

"But……"

"obedient."

"…Um."

An Youyu looked up and said quite earnestly, "Lin Mo, I am really grateful to you and Auntie; when I earn money, I will definitely... take care of you!"

Hearing this, Lin Mo's expression was extremely strange. "Taking care of us?"

"Correct!"

An Youyu didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said, and nodded as if it were a matter of course: "You and Auntie are taking such good care of me now, providing me with food and shelter. When I can earn money in the future, of course I will take care of you."

Lin Mo suppressed a laugh, his words laced with teasing, "So, if that's the case, does that mean I can just laze around and wait to die?"

"Can't!"

Hearing this, An Youyu shook her head, "You can't just coast along. You have to work hard to become excellent because you still have to go back home..."

Realizing she had said too much, she paused, then added in a barely audible voice, "I'll help you, good luck."

"That's what you said."

Lin Mo naturally guessed what the girl hadn't finished saying, and his smile deepened as he extended his right hand, "Come on."

An Youyu blinked, confused. "What...?"

"Hook."

"...No, why do you always like these childish games?"

"This is not a game."

"what is that?"

"Promise."

Lin Mo beckoned with his little finger and urged gently, "Hurry up, I won't give you a chance to back out."

"Young fish never go back on their word..."

"Hook."

"Can't we try a different approach?"

"Ok?"

Lin Mo suddenly stepped forward, startling An Youyu, who shrank back and quickly extended her little finger to make a pinky promise with him, "Pinky promise, a hundred years of vows, no take-backs."

Her soft voice, combined with her tilted head, is the ultimate weapon!

Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat. She looked away expressionlessly and muttered from the bottom of her heart, "Damn it, how can it be so good-looking?"

An Youyu couldn't hear clearly, so she gently poked Lin Mo's arm, "What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing."

Lin Mo forced a smile and quickly changed the subject, "I've seen your room too, come on, let's go see mine."

"it is good."

An Youyu nodded obediently.

A minute later, when the two entered the next room, they both looked surprised.

Compared to the dream room I just had, this room in front of me is... as ordinary as can be.

A plain white wall, a shelf, a bed, and a computer desk.

Then, it was gone...

Lin Mo forced a weak smile, then looked up and sighed dejectedly, "Why? Why is there such a huge difference between people?"

An Youyu lowered her head guiltily, "How about... I stay in this room?"

Lin Mo rolled his eyes. "Little Fish, do you think it's appropriate for a guy like me to live in such a pink and cutesy room? Never mind, it's fine if it's a little simple. At least it's much more spacious than the previous room. One shouldn't be too greedy."

An Youyu opened her mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say.

Just as Lin Mo said, her room was indeed too pink and girly; most normal guys wouldn't be used to it.

Seeing the girl standing there blankly, Lin Mo leaned close to her ear and said, "Don't neglect your studies on the first day of moving into the new house. You can study in your room from now on."

The hot breath on her ear made An Youyu's face flush. "...Oh, okay."

Seeing that the girl didn't dodge, Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly. "Tomorrow afternoon I'll go with you to cancel your rental agreement and move your things over; you'll live here from now on, is that okay?"

An Youyu bit her lip, instinctively wanting to refuse, but when she thought of the promise she made to Lin Shu yesterday, and the precious books on the wall in her bedroom, she couldn't bring herself to say no.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Lin Mo pursed his thin lips and said, "Alright, it's decided then; we can't waste any more time, go to your room to study."

After saying that, he didn't give An Youyu a chance to speak at all, and boldly grabbed her slender wrist and walked out.

When dealing with a girl's gentle nature, sometimes it's necessary to be a little assertive...

The evening breeze was slightly cool, rustling the leaves.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the room was brightly lit.

At the spacious desk, Lin Mo was doing his homework as usual, while An Youyu was engrossed in reading a thick ancient book, each more absorbed than the last.

Lin Shu, who came to deliver fruit, couldn't help but laugh when she saw this scene.

This heartwarming scene brought back memories of many years ago.

If it weren't for that misunderstanding back then, she would probably be very...

never mind!

The past cannot be retrieved.

What's past is past, and no matter how regrettable it may be, it can never be undone.

In the early hours of the morning, Lin Mo stretched wearily, glanced at the clock on the wall, and was surprised to find that it was almost one o'clock in the morning. He broke the quiet atmosphere by saying, "Little Fish, stop looking, it's time to sleep."

An Youyu raised her head energetically, "I'm not sleepy..."

"You're not allowed to look anymore."

Lin Mo pinched her cheek. "Go to sleep, your health is the foundation of everything."

"Oh."

An Youyu lowered her head. "Go to sleep. I... I'll watch for one more minute and then I'll go to sleep."

With a look of helplessness in his eyes, Lin Mo got up and walked outside.

"Click——"

The door closed with a thud, and An Youyu, who was reading, smiled charmingly. She muttered to herself, "You big idiot, you believed me when I said I'd only be looking for a minute? Heh, anyway, you wouldn't know I was secretly watching..."

"Who says I don't know?"

Chapter 195 Ancient Martial Arts

"Who says I don't know?"

The sudden sound was like a thunderclap in An Youyu's ears, startling her so much that she staggered and fell backward uncontrollably.

Lin Mo stood still, letting An Youyu fall into his arms.

One looked down, the other looked up.

They looked at each other from above and below.

"You're calling me a complete idiot? Or saying I don't know?"

Lin Mo tapped the girl's delicate nose, a boundless smile spreading across his dark pupils. "I knew you little rascal wouldn't behave. You wanted to play the 'openly repair the plank road while secretly advancing the Chencang pass' trick with me, didn't you? Let me tell you, I've already done all that before."

An Youyu's long eyelashes trembled, and she stammered, "You...you...didn't you leave?"

Lin Mo chuckled softly, "Who said I left?"

An Youyu sat up straight, turned around to look at the closed door, then at Lin Mo with a smile on his face, and lowered her head to admit her mistake, "I'm sorry."

"Who's the big idiot?"

"you."

"Ok?"
