A sense of loss lingered in the girl's heart. She would look back at the school every now and then until the school completely disappeared from sight. Reluctantly, she turned her gaze away and her pace gradually slowed down.

Lin Mo, walking on the outside of the sidewalk, stroked the girl's hair behind her and gently comforted her, "In the process of growing up, you will always say goodbye to many people and many things."

"But don't be discouraged, because the scenery ahead is even more beautiful."

An Youyu stopped and stared blankly at Lin Mo in front of her. After a long while, she finally spoke: "I don't know why, but sometimes what you say really touches me."

Lin Mo looked around and, seeing that no one was around, pulled An Youyu into his arms in a very domineering manner. His deep voice resonated in her ear, "Perhaps I have seen too many things and have come to some insights into life."

"cut--"

An Youyu muttered under her breath, "He's the same age as me, why is he acting like an adult?"

"Also, didn't I tell you not to hug me when we're outside? Why don't you ever take what Youyu says to heart?"

Although she said that, her body betrayed her, letting Lin Mo hold her without struggling at all.

Lin Mo smiled, lowered his head, and his lips almost touched the girl's earlobe. "It's not that I don't take your words to heart, but it depends on what kind of words they are. Of course, I will remember what you say that is good to me."

The hot breath on her ear made An Youyu instinctively shrink her neck, her face flushing rapidly. "Not hugging me outside is a sign of your kindness to me."

"I don't think so."

"But I think so."

"I don't want you to feel it, I want me to feel it."

"you……"

An Youyu gave a soft snort, but didn't argue with Lin Mo anymore.

She knew that when it came to verbal sparring, she was no match for Lin Mo.

Since you can't win the argument anyway, you might as well save your energy.

Lin Mo didn't go too far, and let go of the girl after holding her for about half a minute.

Once free, An Youyu quickly took a step to the inside, saying, "I'll say it again, you're not allowed to hug me outside anymore."

"Little Fish, I'm doing this all for your own good."

"Nonsense, how is it for my own good?"

Seeing Lin Mo's aggrieved look, An Youyu was both angry and amused. "Tell me, I'll give you a chance to explain, but I don't believe you can come up with a coherent explanation."

Lin Mo shook his head and said, "Scientific research shows that when a girl hugs a boy, her oxytocin levels spike dramatically, and she also feels happy."

"If a woman doesn't hug a man for a long time, the amount of oxytocin secreted by her body will decrease significantly. In this case, the woman is more likely to gain weight. So, I'm hugging you for your own good."

An Youyu: "..."

Help--

This guy is talking nonsense!!!

Chapter 358 Brother and Older Brother!

Seeing An Youyu staring blankly at him, Lin Mo grinned, "How about it? Are you dumbfounded?"

As he spoke, he rubbed An Youyu's head with both hands, making a mess of her smooth, long hair in the blink of an eye. "As young people of the new era, we must believe in science."

An Youyu swatted away Lin Mo's mischievous hands, tidying her hair as she complained, "I've never seen anyone who can talk nonsense better than you."

“This isn’t nonsense, it’s science.”

Faced with Lin Mo's earnest explanation, An Youyu had no temper and clenched her right fist.

Lin Mo did not dodge.

But when her fist landed, she had already reduced more than 90% of its force.

The soft, fluffy fist made Lin Mo burst out laughing. "Little Fish, with that kind of strength, you probably couldn't even kill a mosquito, could you?"

"you……"

An Youyu stomped her foot, "Isn't it because I'm afraid of hurting you? You don't appreciate my kindness!"

She hugged her schoolbag and walked forward angrily.

Lin Mo followed half a step behind, saying, "Look at you, can't you even take a joke? It's only because of you that I wouldn't bother joking with anyone else."

An Youyu slowed her pace, turned her head and glared at her, "So, according to you, should I thank you?"

"It's not necessary."

Lin Mo changed the subject: "Of course, if you insist on thanking me, that's not impossible."

An Youyu: "..."

At that moment, she didn't say anything.

But her eyes were enough to tell Lin Mo what she wanted to say.

shameless! ! !

After walking about two or three hundred meters, An Youyu stopped, panting. "No, the school is so far from home. Are you planning to walk all the way home?"

Upon hearing the word 'home', Lin Mo smiled from the bottom of his heart.

An Youyu's eyes were filled with resentment. "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm seriously discussing this with you. It takes at least two hours to walk home from here, and my legs will be killing me when I wake up tomorrow morning!"

Lin Mo blinked innocently, "Little Fish, I don't have a single penny on me right now. You're the one with the big money. If you need to take a taxi, you should be the one to do it, okay?"

Upon hearing this, An Youyu's attitude changed drastically again. "Well... I feel like my physical fitness has been a bit poor lately. Walking around more would be a good idea, just as a way to exercise."

"..."

Lin Mo finally understood: when it comes to money, this girl is a real tightwad, not willing to part with a single penny!

However, walking home from here...

Not bad.

"Give me your hand."

"Oh."

It's only been a week since the two first held hands.

Ke Anyouyu seemed to have gotten used to this behavior. When she heard Lin Mo ask her to extend her hand, she had no intention of resisting and instinctively placed her hand in Lin Mo's palm.

The two walked slowly along the sidewalk with their backs to the setting sun.

Around 3 p.m. is almost the hottest time of day.

The two people walking under the shade of the trees couldn't hold on for long before they couldn't take it anymore.

Lin Mo is alright, but An Youyu is the main problem.

Sweat beaded on her cheeks as she sat down on a roadside flowerbed. "I'm not going any further, I can't walk anymore."

Lin Mo stepped forward, squatted down, and tied her untied shoelaces. "This is nothing. We've only walked about a tenth of the way."

"what?"

An Youyu looked dejected. The thought of still having nine-tenths of the journey left made her legs feel weak uncontrollably.

Or... should we take a taxi?

beat!

Indulging in a little luxury now and then isn't too much to ask.

The moment the thought crossed her mind, An Youyu made a decision: "Lin Mo, shall we take a taxi?"

Lin Mo laughed, "Do you remember who said they wanted to exercise? Little Fish, do you remember?"

"I……"

An Youyu's already rosy cheeks turned even redder after Lin Mo's question. She looked to the side shyly and said, "I've walked this far, so it's good exercise."

"Does it count?"

"I guess so?"

The girl's uncertain tone made Lin Mo chuckle to himself. He took out a tissue and wiped her sweat. "Okay, let's rest for a bit. I'll call a car."

"Ah."

While Lin Mo was calling a taxi, An Youyu looked around and her eyes lit up when she saw a milk tea shop not far away.

She pursed her dry lips and shook Lin Mo's shoulders forcefully, "Look, look!"

"What are you looking at?"

There's a milk tea shop up ahead.

"Want some milk tea?"

"think."

In the past, An Youyu would definitely have felt embarrassed.

But after spending more time with Lin Mo, she would basically say what she wanted to do directly.

She herself was unaware of this change.

"I won't call a car for now."

Lin Mo put away his phone, pulled An Youyu to her feet, and said, "Come on, I'll treat you to milk tea."

An Youyu pouted, "You're only a few months older than me, you're not my brother."

Lin Mo punched An Youyu on the head. "Being a day older is still being a big brother. Call me 'brother'."

An Youyu, wincing in pain, covered her head with both hands and glared at Lin Mo, who was a head taller than her. "How many times have I told you not to hit my head? Why can't you remember? I'm still growing!"

"And also, I will never call you brother!"

“Yoho——”

Lin Mo clicked his tongue, a malicious glint in his narrowed eyes. "Little Fish, you've got guts, haven't you?"

"cough…"
