"Don't take no for an answer."

Before Lin Mo could finish speaking, An Youyu interrupted him, "I am really grateful for your and Aunt's care during this time. You must eat this meal."

"eat."

Noticing the determination in An Youyu's eyes, Lin Mo readily nodded in agreement and cleverly changed the subject, saying, "Little Yu'er, the college entrance exam results haven't even been released yet, and you're already planning how to spend your prize money? Isn't that a bit too confident?"

"confidence?"

An Youyu looked puzzled. "Why aren't you confident? No one should have a higher score than me. This established fact has nothing to do with confidence."

A given fact?

Lin Mo managed a weak smile.

If someone else had said that, he would have replied, "Can't you stop bragging?"

But when these words came from An Youyu's mouth, he couldn't muster any rebuttal.

just like……

Everything should have been this way.

Compared to him, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel ashamed and guilty.

Honestly, he was simply confident of making it onto the Dragon List.

However, he was not sure of his exact ranking, and dared not say that he was definitely number one on the Dragon List.

He possesses a system, yet he's no match for a girl.

Shame on you!

No... in the end, this situation can't be blamed on him.

If anyone's to blame, it's the system—it's just too useless!

System: "If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Stop trying to shift the blame!"

Lin Mo: "..."

So tender!!!

"The supplies we ordered should be delivered to the orphanage tomorrow. There will definitely be a lot to do then. I'll go with you."

"Thank you."

Speaking of the supplies, An Youyu felt a surge of emotion.

She knew that everything Lin Mo did was for her sake.

The thought of her younger siblings in the courtyard having a better life in the future made her smile from the bottom of her heart.

Lin Mo grinned mischievously, "Little Fish, verbal thanks are hypocritical. If you're going to express your gratitude, can't you be more sincere?"

"Be more practical?"

An Youyu was stunned. "How is it real?"

Lin Mo turned his chair around and opened his arms. "It would be very practical to give you a hug."

"..."

In an instant, An Youyu's face glowed with a rich, rosy hue, filling the sky with a deep red.

The two stared at each other without saying a word, and the atmosphere in the room became quiet.

After about half a minute, An Youyu timidly reminded in a low voice, "Um... we already hugged today, and we agreed to only hug once a day."

"This is different."

Lin Mo, without changing his expression, said deceptively, "The previous hug was necessary, but this hug is out of gratitude. There's a fundamental difference between the two. Think about it carefully, isn't that the truth?"

"like……"

"That's it!"

An Youyu's face turned bright red, and she said in a barely audible voice, "Lin Mo, we agreed this morning that no one would know about this hug, but now Auntie already knows."

"According to the agreement, we can't hug anymore."

"Nonsense!"

"Where are you talking nonsense?"

Meeting An Youyu's puzzled gaze, Lin Mo shook his head and chuckled, "Little Yu'er, I remember very clearly, your original words were that I could only hug you once a day, and only when no one was around. If anyone saw us, this agreement would be null and void."

An Youyu nodded hesitantly, "That's right, those were indeed my exact words."

Lin Mo added, "Although my mother found out about our hug, she only knew it; she didn't actually see us hug."

"You, you're just... making excuses."

"No, no."

Lin Mo smiled frankly, "I'm just stating the facts."

An Youyu was speechless. After receiving a suggestive look from Lin Mo that asked for a hug, she hesitated again.

but……

This hesitation existed, but only for a moment.

The next second, she threw herself into Lin Mo's arms, constantly trying to reassure herself.

Lin Mo helped her so much, a hug isn't too much to ask.

Besides, she and Lin Mo were already good friends, and even Lin Shu said that it's normal for good friends to hug each other...

Even through her clothes, Lin Mo could feel the coolness emanating from the girl's soft body, as well as her astonishing fragility and petite stature.

"Little Fish, you're too thin."

"No talking."

"I'm not kidding. You need to eat more from now on. You eat less than a kitten all day."

"If you talk again, I won't let you hug me anymore."

Lin Mo wisely shut up.

Embrace the moment, enjoy the moment.

……

It was almost 11 p.m. when Lin Mo had just lain down in bed when he heard a knock on the door.

He was quite surprised when he saw the person outside the door.

The cliff, Bai Wuhen, and the mother.

Lin Shu glanced at her son, "Weren't you going to the capital with Brother Duan and Xiaobai? Let's discuss when to set off."

Lin Mo suddenly realized what was happening and quickly stepped aside.

After closing the door, Duan Ya spoke first, "Lin Mo, why did you come with us to the capital? You should know why Xiao Bai and I are going to the capital. It might be inconvenient to bring you along."

Bai Wuhen nodded slightly and said frankly, "Your strength is too weak. You can't help and will only become a burden to me and Senior Duan."

Compared to the cliff, Bai Wuhen's words were more direct and straightforward.

Although Lin Mo and Bai Wuhen had only known each other for a day, they were already used to Bai Wuhen's straightforward personality. Hearing his words, they were not angry and explained with a smile, "Seniors, I will be separated from you after we enter the capital."

"After we separate, you can do whatever you want without worrying about me. Once you get the extraordinary fruit, go to the intersection of Baihua Road in the suburbs of the capital. I'll be waiting for you there."

Lin Shu frowned. "Xiao Mo, what exactly are you going to do in the capital?"

Not only her, but Duan Ya and Bai Wuhen were also very curious.

Seeing that all three of them were staring at him, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Mom, if I could say it, I would have already."

Chapter 333 Things That Must Be Done

"You kid..."

Lin Shu sighed and didn't insist any further. "Alright, but you must be careful when you're out and about. No... I'm still a little worried. Let Xing go with you."

"Need not."

Lin Mo decisively rejected his mother's suggestion, "Mom, your son hasn't gotten married yet, and he values ​​his life more than anyone else. You don't need to worry. Just stay home and take good care of Xiaoyuer."

"In your words?"

Hearing her son say that, Lin Shu laughed and scolded him.

She wanted to know why her son went to the capital, but she wouldn't force him to ask.

It's normal for a son to have some secrets now that he's grown up.

Bai Wuhen suddenly spoke up, "When are we going?"

When he said this, he looked at Lin Mo, and his meaning was clear: everything should be based on Lin Mo's wishes.

Lin Mo smiled politely, "Senior, the college entrance exam results will be released the day after tomorrow. How about we set off the day after that?"

"Are the college entrance exam results out?"

Bai Wuhen was a little confused. It took him three or four seconds to realize what the words "college entrance exam results announced" meant. "You're still going to school?"

"if not?"

Lin Mo looked strange. "Senior, I'm only eighteen years old this year. It would be strange if I wasn't in school at this age, right?"

Bai Wuhen replied, "There's no need. Just find a master. Going to school is a waste of time. It would be better to use the time saved to practice martial arts."

"Master?"

Lin Mo was unfamiliar with the term and couldn't help but look at his mother, "Mom, what is a guru?"

"Guru, the teacher of a wealthy family."

Lin Shu patiently explained, "Moreover, the master teaches not only knowledge, but also vision, strategy, cunning, and overall perspective."

"Ouch."

Lin Mo looked amazed. "So, becoming a guru isn't something just anyone can do."
