My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"Fish, Auntie will get angry if you don't put it down soon."

"Auntie, the baby fish's hearing isn't good right now, it can't hear you..."

Lin Shu was both amused and exasperated, truly charmed by An Youyu. She gently stroked the girl's hair, saying, "Whoever marries Xiaoyu in the future will be incredibly lucky."

"Auntie, the baby fish aren't that good."

"Huh? You can hear me now? Put the bowl down quickly."

“I can’t hear you…”

……

Around 6 PM, outside Baiyu Residential Area.

Lin Mo handed the bag containing the school uniform to An Youyu, his eyes filled with concern, "Don't study for too long tonight, go to bed early, I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow morning."

An Youyu took the bag. "I'll go to bed early. You don't need to pick me up tomorrow. I remember the way and can go by myself."

"No."

Lin Mo rejected the girl's suggestion, saying, "It takes several streets to get to my house from here."

He didn't say the next sentence.

An Youyu looked up, bathed in the soft glow of the evening sun, her whole being radiating a dreamlike beauty. "You... don't treat me like a child. I'm an adult now, I'm a grown woman."

Lin Mo smiled. "See you tomorrow."

"you……"

"Little Fish, do you think we need to argue about this?"

An Youyu looked up at Lin Mo for a while, then smiled and said, "I won't argue anymore."

The sunset was perfect, the afterglow gentle and soft.

The girl's smile amazed the world, and it also amazed Lin Mo...

Chapter 51 Gift

The wind stirs the clouds, and the afterglow is colorful.

Outside the residential compound, Lin Mo planned to wait until An Youyu entered before leaving.

Unexpectedly, An Youyu was very stubborn and insisted that he leave first, so he had no choice but to agree.

"See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

After waving goodbye, Lin Mo turned and left.

He would turn his head to look at An Youyu every few steps; he would look at her more than ten times over a distance of 100 meters.

This action made An Youyu feel shy, but a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

"Lin Mo."

A crisp voice came from behind, and Lin Mo immediately turned around and ran back, "What's wrong?"

An Youyu looked down at her toes, but her view was blocked. She could only look to the side and kicked her jade-like feet, which were wearing new shoes, making a very soft sound.

"Thank you for today... I enjoyed tutoring you."

"I am also very happy."

Bathed in the glow of the setting sun, Lin Mo's smile carried a touch of warmth.

He reached into his pocket, but didn't take it out immediately. His eyes held a mysterious look. "Little Fish, close your eyes."

"what?"

As dusk fell, a cool summer breeze blew through her skirt.

An Youyu's face flushed, her teeth and lips silently struggling, a hint of wariness in her eyes. "What are you doing?"

"Close your eyes."

"Tell me what you want to do first."

"Just close your eyes when I tell you to."

"You...don't do anything reckless."

An Youyu whispered a few more instructions before closing her eyes.

Lin Mo walked behind An Youyu, strands of hair blown by the wind brushed against his face, and a fresh fragrance wafted into his nose. He opened his right hand, and a hollowed-out four-leaf clover necklace lay quietly in his palm.

However, he had no experience putting a necklace on a girl, and he seemed a bit clumsy throughout the process.

An Youyu kept her eyes closed, feeling a chill on her neck. She wanted to open her eyes to see what Lin Mo was doing, but she was afraid of making Lin Mo angry. Her lips curled into a conflicted smile. "What... what are you doing?"

"Close your eyes properly, and don't peek."

"…oh."

Lin Mo tried several times before finally managing to hook the small hooks on the necklace together. In just over ten seconds, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. "Okay, you can open your eyes now."

An Youyu's long eyelashes trembled, and her eyelids opened. The moment she lowered her head, she froze on the spot.

Lin Mo approached An Youyu, his eyes filled with anticipation, "Do you like this gift?"

An Youyu's eyes reddened slightly. "You... you lied to me again."

It wasn't anger, but rather being touched; her soft tone carried a hint of reproach.

Lin Mo bent down and got close to her face. "Little Fish, if you don't like it, you don't like it. Why are you so upset? If you really don't like it, just throw it away."

Upon hearing this, An Youyu quickly grabbed the necklace and took several steps back, her eyes flashing with defensiveness. "Who, who said I don't like it?"

"I like it, don't throw it away! The necklace is now... mine!"

It looks just like a kitten guarding its food.

Lin Mo suppressed a laugh, "Your red eyes clearly mean you don't like it; we don't need to force you. Here, I'll help you take it off."

"I didn't force you."

An Youyu stomped her feet anxiously, "I like it, I like it so much."

"nice! You love it."

Lin Mo's smile widened. "I'm going back now. Tomorrow... Oh, right, there's one more thing."

"what's up?"

Lin Mo took out two hundred yuan from his pocket. "This is for today's tutoring. Don't be stingy with the money. Treat yourself well. Things will get better and better in the future, understand?"

An Youyu lowered her eyes. "Auntie gave me a dress and shoes, and cooked for me. I can't accept this money. Please don't make things difficult for me."

Lin Mo raised his hand and picked at his ear. "Why can't I hear what you're saying?"

As he spoke, he came up to An Youyu and forcefully stuffed the money into her hand, saying, "Buy more nutritional supplements, you're too thin."

"You're cheating, that won't do."

"If you can do it, why can't I?"

Seeing that the girl was about to return the money, Lin Mo quickly stepped aside. "Be good, listen to me; if you keep being so distant with me, I'll get angry."

An Youyu pouted, "Why do you and Auntie both like to threaten people with anger?"

Her weak protest, along with the faint resentment on her small face, made one want to grab her face and roughly squeeze it.

"my mother?"

Lin Mo was taken aback for a moment, then a look of understanding flashed in his eyes. "She is her, and I am me; we are different. Let's not talk about it anymore, go back now."

"Can we get this money back?"

Faced with the stubborn An Youyu, Lin Mo had no choice but to unleash his ultimate weapon.

"You don't want to take the money?"

"Ah."

"Sure, give me a hug, and you don't need to take the money."

"you……"

An Youyu blushed again, "No."

Lin Mo had already anticipated being rejected. "Then keep the money. I'll give you ten seconds. If you haven't entered the residential area by then, I'm not sure what will happen next. Just a friendly reminder, this is on the street."

"you……"

"one!"

"two!"

...

"seven!"

An Youyu was afraid that Lin Mo would do something reckless. When he called out "seven", she didn't dare to hesitate any longer and quickly ran into the residential area.

This behavior left Lin Mo quite helpless.

Do I have to avoid him when I walk?

He's not a heinous criminal, and he's only doing this for this girl...

Despite her complaints, Lin Mo remained in a good mood. Once she could no longer see An Youyu, she slowly walked home.

As soon as Lin Mo entered the living room, he noticed his mother on the sofa.

Meeting his mother's meaningful gaze, he coughed lightly and said, "Mom, you've had a hard day."

"It's not hard."

Lin Shu raised an eyebrow. "Sit down. I have something to tell you."

Lin Mo felt a little uneasy at the lukewarm attitude.

In his memory, he was always in trouble whenever his mother adopted this posture.
