My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

As she spoke, she got up to serve the girl porridge. "Fish, don't pay any attention to your Uncle Duan. He's always like that, talking without thinking."

An Youyu pursed her lips. "It's alright."

Duan Ya clicked his tongue awkwardly, his gaze sweeping over the three faces before finally settling on An Youyu. "Girl, Lin Mo calls you Little Fish, and Xiao Shu calls you Fish. Since that's the case, how about I call you... Little Fish?"

The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment.

Little fish?

No matter how you look at it, this nickname sounds like it's copying someone else's homework...

Chapter 200 Good luck, I wish you failure!

"Little fish?"

After exchanging glances, the Lin mother and son looked at the cliff with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

Duan Ya didn't care at all about their gazes and said calmly, "Why are you looking at me? We'll have a long time to get to know each other. I can't keep calling her 'little girl' forever, can I?"

Lin Shu rolled her eyes. "Brother Duan, what you said is true, but Yu'er has a name, so why can't you call her by her name?"

"Correct."

Lin Mo nodded in agreement.

Duan Ya couldn't help but purse his lips at their words, "You two are calling me so affectionately, if I call you by your names I'll feel like an outsider."

"You've always been an outsider."

Lin Shu's added insult to injury made Duan Ya roll his eyes. "Little Shu, can't you speak properly?"

Lin Shu snorted, "It may sound harsh, but it's the truth."

Duanya waved his hand impatiently, "Anyway, that's what I'll call you from now on."

"Uncle Duan."

An Youyu, who hadn't spoken until now, called out softly, her expression slightly hesitant, "Um... it's better if you call me by my name. I'm not used to being called 'Little Fish'."

During this period of contact, influenced by Lin Mo, her personality has become much more cheerful than before, but in essence, it has not changed.

Besides, she and Duanya had only known each other for a day.

The intimate nickname "Little Fish" really made her somewhat resistant.

Duan Ya clicked his tongue and reluctantly nodded. "In that case, I'll call you An Yatou from now on?"

"can."

An Youyu nodded slightly, no longer refusing.

After the two reached an agreement, Lin Shu spoke up at the right time, "Yu'er, when Xiao Mo practices martial arts in the future, if you have time, you can also try to learn some; no matter how much or how little you learn, at least it can achieve the effect of strengthening your body. Of course, Auntie is just suggesting it, and the specific choice is still up to your wishes."

Duan Ya smiled knowingly, not expecting Lin Shu to fulfill his promise so quickly.

For a moment, he looked at An Youyu with anticipation.

An Youyu looked surprised, hesitated for a moment, and then parted her red lips slightly: "Auntie, Youyu doesn't really like practicing martial arts."

Disliking it is one aspect.

Moreover, with those books in her bedroom, she couldn't bear to waste time.

In her view, practicing martial arts is a waste of time.

Hearing this, Lin Shu didn't insist any further and changed the subject with a smile, "Since you don't like it, then just pretend Auntie didn't say anything. Okay, let's eat."

Seeing Lin Shu give up so easily, Duan Ya twitched his lips and gave her a look.

That's it?

Lin Shu returned the glance.

That's it!

cliff:"……"

Are you kidding me?

Lin Mo, who was engrossed in eating, didn't say a word. After finishing his porridge, he suddenly spoke up: "Mom, a friend is coming to our house today."

"What friend? Gu Fan?"

Hearing her mother's guess, Lin Mo shook her head. "No, other friends. After dinner, you can take Xiaoyuer out for a walk. She doesn't have many clothes, so buy her a few more outfits."

"No, no need."

Upon hearing this, An Youyu, who was eating, hurriedly put down her chopsticks and said urgently, "Auntie has already given me a lot of clothes, so I don't need to buy any more."

Lin Mo chuckled and countered, "Besides your school uniform, you only have four or five sets of summer clothes, Little Fish. Do you have some misunderstanding about the word 'many'?"

"Isn't enough to wear?"

An Youyu muttered something under her breath, showing no intention of backing down.

She already felt she owed Lin Shu a lot...

Lin Mo raised an eyelid. "I didn't punish you for what happened last night, so you can't refuse my suggestion now. Let's just leave it at that."

After saying that, he nodded to the cliff. "If Master has nothing else to do, you can come along. Jingchuan is a small place, but it has everything you need, so it's worth a visit."

"cut--"

Duan Ya scoffed, "Kid, don't play these tricks on me. You just want me to protect your mother and An Ya, right? Just say it."

Lin Mo replied without changing his expression, "No, no, you are the master and I am the disciple; how could a disciple dare to order his master around?"

"Ah--"

Duan Ya sneered, glancing at Lin Shu with annoyance, "How did you raise such a shameless son who talks nonsense all the time?"

Lin Shu shrugged. "You'll get used to it eventually."

"..."

Frustrated as he was, Duan Ya didn't refuse.

After the meal, Lin Mo took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and Lin Shu followed him into the kitchen, leaning lazily against the counter with curiosity in her eyes.

Lin Mo, who was washing dishes, shook his head and chuckled, "Mom, just ask me whatever you want to ask. Don't stare at me like that without saying a word. It's creepy."

Lin Shu crossed her arms and chuckled softly, "What kind of friend is so important that you would go to the trouble of sending me and Yu'er away?"

"It is indeed important."

Lin Mo did not deny it, and said half truthfully, "When I took Xiaoyuer out to play before, we met a rather interesting person, and my son has some spare money now, so I thought I would like to start a small business."

As he spoke, he chuckled and said, "Money makes money, that's the right way."

Lin Shu looked surprised. "Doing business? Xiao Mo, you're still just a high school student. Don't think about such things all day long. The most important thing right now is to study hard and try to get into Tsinghua University."

"It won't interfere with your studies."

Lin Mo shook the water off his hands, turned to face his mother, and said, "For the time being, I only need to invest, not participate in the process."

Lin Shu reached out and touched her son's forehead. "He doesn't have a fever."

Lin Mo said helplessly, "Mom, didn't you already say that the money you gave me before was not only for my daily needs during college, but also for my investment capital? It's just a few months earlier now."

"That's what I said."

Lin Shu smiled wryly, "Mom just thinks you're still too young, and it's easy for you to be cheated if you try to do business now."

"I'm a grown man, not a fool; how could I be so easily fooled?"

Lin Mo gave his mother a reassuring look and said half-jokingly, "Besides, my mom is so rich, even if I get scammed or lose money in business, I can just consider it a lesson learned."

"Furthermore, failure is not necessarily a bad thing. People learn from each failure and accumulate experience. Temporary failures are all for future success."

Lin Shu found it amusing. "Your mindset is not bad. Good. People always need to grow. Gaining more experience is not a bad thing."

At this point, she smiled and winked at her son, "You can use this method of getting rid of people more often in the future. I was just worrying about how to persuade Yu'er to go shopping with me, and you just happened to be the perfect solution."

Lin Mo laughed along, "Son will do his best."

Lin Shu patted her son on the shoulder with relief, "Good luck, I wish you failure."

"..."

Chapter 201 Investment!

Should I wish him failure?

This blessing is truly...

How incredibly novel!

Lin Shu noticed her son's strange expression. "Why are you looking at me like that? You're the one who said you needed to gain experience. Is there a problem with me wishing you failure?"

"I……"

Lin Mo forced a smile. "Logically, there's nothing wrong with it."

"Isn't that okay?"

Lin Shu chuckled inwardly and stepped outside.

Seeing his mother about to leave, Lin Mo quickly grabbed her, revealing a malicious smile.

Suddenly, Lin Shu had a bad feeling. "Why are you smiling so slyly?"

Lin Mo didn't care. "Mom, am I your biological son?"

"Nonsense! Is there even a need to say it?"

"Could my son borrow some money from you?"

"Borrow money?"

Lin Shu was quite puzzled, "Don't you have three million in your card? Isn't that enough for you to squander?"

"We always need some reserve funds."

"How much to borrow?"
