My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"You still have hands and feet, and you're not that old, so you should do what you want to do. The failures in life are either laziness or sloth. The meaning of hard work is to give yourself more freedom of choice. No matter what you choose, you shouldn't be begging on the streets at this age."

The beggar's pupils constricted as if an earthquake had struck; after a long silence, he bowed deeply once more.

"Teachable."

Many onlookers nodded to themselves; sincere words are always so easy to accept.

Even those who were just watching the spectacle were inspired by the girl's words.

The old man who had helped Lin Mo verify the currency code earlier smiled with satisfaction and led the applause.

One, two… Soon, applause erupted all around, even from the three security guards.

Even the woman who had initially clashed with Lin Mo put aside her anger at this moment.

This girl seems to possess some kind of magic; her affability is simply irresistible.

Although no one could see the girl's face, they could clearly feel her kind heart; perhaps this is what is known as inner beauty...

Thus, this farce came to a dramatic end.

In a small restaurant across the street, Lin Mo casually ordered a few spicy dishes.

After the boss left, Lin Mo couldn't help but exclaim, "Little Fish, I really admire you."

"Admire me?"

An Youyu's eyes flickered slightly. "I don't have anything admirable about me. On the contrary, I'm quite stupid. I just did what I was supposed to do and said what I was supposed to say."

She paused, a look of apology in her eyes, "If it weren't for me, this wouldn't have happened at all. If you hadn't handled it, I might have been swindled out of all my money by that person. In the end, I should be thanking you."

When she said the words "scammed all my money," a hint of resentment rose uncontrollably in the girl's eyes, and she murmured softly, "Damn it, they actually tried to scam me out of my money, it's...unforgivable!"

Hearing the girl's soft mutterings, Lin Mo laughed heartily, "If you encounter something like this again, would you still choose to lend a helping hand?"

An Youyu thought about it quite seriously, "Probably... yes."

"Oh?"

Lin Mo chuckled and teased, "Still helping? Aren't you afraid of running into something like this again?"

"There's no reason to be afraid."

"is it?"

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes and asked with great curiosity, "Why aren't you afraid?"

An Youyu narrowed her eyes to slits and softly expressed her opinion, "At most, I'll just be scammed out of money, and... even if I get scammed nine times out of ten, I still managed to help someone. Why should I be afraid of something like that?"

Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat, and his pupils trembled.

Before the girl said those words, he had imagined many possible responses, but this was the only one he hadn't thought of.

One sentence summary.

Nine out of ten scams succeed, but one might actually succeed!

Seeing that Lin Mo didn't speak, An Youyu cautiously said, "But don't worry, I'll be more careful next time. Youyu's money isn't so easy to fool... I'll also be careful not to let others touch it in the future."

Hearing the girl's last words, Lin Mo smiled and couldn't help but reach out and tap her forehead. "You are good in every way, but you are too kind-hearted. This makes you easy to be bullied, and you can easily suffer a great loss."

"But that's just who I am..."

An Youyu muttered something under her breath, then replied almost instinctively, "Besides, you wouldn't let anyone bully me."

As soon as she spoke, her fair cheeks flushed pink, a blush that couldn't be completely concealed even with a mask on.

At first glance, this statement seems quite normal.

Only upon closer examination can one sense her subconscious dependence on Lin Mo.

Is she possessed by an evil spirit?

Otherwise, why would someone say something like that...?

"That sounds quite agreeable."

Lin Mo smiled from the bottom of his heart. Seeing that there were not many people in the store, he got up and took off An Youyu's mask, revealing that breathtaking face. He whispered, "Don't worry, I can't bear to bully you, so naturally I won't let others bully you."

The voice was very soft, but An Youyu heard it all. Her already flushed face became even more charming. "You... thank you for the phone you gave me today."

Hearing such an abrupt way of changing the subject, Lin Mo couldn't help but chuckle. "It's not like I paid for it. If you want to thank someone, you should thank my mom."

An Youyu gently tied her long hair back, strands brushing her lips, her clear, long eyelashes drooping, and that gentleness etched into her bones spread silently. "If you want to thank someone, Auntie should also thank someone."

Lin Mo's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he raised his hands from the table, a rare pleading look in his eyes. "Little Fish, can I ask you for a favor?"

An Youyu tilted her head, her long hair cascading down her shoulders to her front, her gentleness intensifying, "What is it?"

Lin Mo pursed his lips. "Promise me first. Don't worry, it won't be excessive."

An Youyu met Lin Mo's gaze for a few seconds, and seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, she nodded subtly, "Okay."

The moment the words left his mouth, Lin Mo placed his hands on her cheeks.

Then... came a series of rubbing...

"oops!"

Several seconds later, An Youyu belatedly slapped away Lin Mo's mischievous hands, her eyes full of reproach, "You still say it's not going too far? I'll never trust you again!"

"cough--"

Lin Mo chuckled dryly, then put on a very innocent look, "Little Fish, you can't blame me for this."

An Youyu's clear eyes flickered slightly. "If it's not your fault, then is it mine?"

"Congratulations, you got it."

"..."

Under An Youyu's surprised gaze, Lin Mo explained without batting an eye, "Who told you to be so cute? Of course I couldn't help but pinch your cheeks."

An Youyu lightly stomped her foot on the floor. "You, you... you're clearly just making excuses."

The fleeting glimpse of her girlish demeanor was as breathtaking as the moon veiled by light clouds or swirling snowflakes in a gentle breeze.

Lin Mo didn't argue, but the smile on his lips gradually widened.

This summer is like that dream I've had countless times, surrounded by layers of excitement, subtle joys, and limited-edition sweetness...

Chapter 219 Educating Girls: Start from a Young Age?

After lunch, Lin Mo suggested going to see a movie.

"See a movie?"

"Correct."

Seeing An Youyu's surprised look, Lin Mo nodded decisively.

An Youyu frowned. "Why do you suddenly want to go to the movies?"

"cough!"

Lin Mo smirked, "Little Fish, do you need a reason to go to the movies?"

"Don't you need it?"

"do you need?"

"need."

"..."

Good heavens, that conversation has successfully killed the conversation!

Lin Mo felt a headache coming on. "I want to see it, will you come with me? Is that a good enough reason?"

An Youyu shifted her gaze, a hint of curiosity in her eyes, "Sure, but can I ask what movie you're watching?"

Lin Mo's mind raced, and in an instant, an idea came to him: "How about... watching a horror movie?"

"Horror movie?"

An Youyu's expression was extremely strange. "Why...why did you take me to see a horror movie?"

Lin Mo was embarrassed. "Little Fish, are you a walking encyclopedia of questions?"

An Youyu bit her lip lightly, her voice like heavenly music, "Can't we not go?"

"Ok?"

Lin Mo was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected to be rejected and blurted out, "Why?"

An Youyu didn't hide anything and answered truthfully: "When I was little, my grandmother once warned me that I was not allowed to watch horror movies with boys when I grew up."

Lin Mo: "..."

Should we start educating girls from a young age?

This is too cruel!

Seeing that Lin Mo didn't speak, An Youyu spread her hands and said, "I'm not lying to you. My mother-in-law has said this more than once. Not only that, there are many other things I can't do."

Lin Mo's face twitched. "Is there anything else I can't do?"

"Can't hug boys, can't spend boys' money, can't get too close to boys, can't accept boys' advances, can't..."

"stop!"

The more Lin Mo listened, the darker his face became.

exaggerate!

That's really an exaggeration!

This is forbidden, that is forbidden; why not just ban boys from existing in this girl's world altogether? This is ridiculous!

"My mother-in-law has so many rules..."

An Youyu's eyes were filled with memories, and as she spoke, the corners of her lips couldn't help but turn up slightly. "My mother-in-law said that if I could do all of these things, I would never be deceived."

Lin Mo forced a smile, "You definitely won't be fooled."

They can't even get close, what a lie!
