My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Lin Mo patted him on the shoulder again, "Uncle Xu, you are indeed very capable. Your capability is second to none."

Xu Huang's hands tightened slightly as she took out the shopping bag. "Thank you."

On the way to Shuangmu Building, An Youyu quietly tapped Lin Mo's hand and suggested in a barely audible voice, "Could you raise Uncle Xu's salary a bit?"

Fearing Lin Mo would refuse, she quickly explained, "Look, Uncle Xu earns 20,000 yuan a month, but he doesn't even buy winter clothes. Obviously, most of it goes to the poor students he sponsors. Why not give him a raise? That way, we'll be doing a good deed too."

After saying that, she patted her chest and said, "I'll pay for the raise, okay?"

Lin Mo saw the expectation in the girl's eyes, couldn't help but pat her head, and whispered in her ear, "You don't need to pay for it. Don't worry about this. I already have a plan."

Seeing Lin Mo say that, An Youyu smiled especially sweetly. She glanced at Xu Huang, who was driving in the front row, and carefully explained, "It's not that I don't want to buy you clothes, it's that you don't need any clothes at all. Having too many clothes would be a waste."

"So, is this your reason for not buying me clothes?"

Meeting Lin Mo's gaze, An Youyu stuck out her tongue guiltily, "Um... how about I buy it for you after we finish taking the photos?"

"Ah--"

Lin Mo smiled and shook his head in refusal: "What you ask for will always come eventually. What I ask for and what you offer to buy for me have different meanings."

An Youyu: "..."

Why does this tone and these words feel so familiar?

"I was wrong."

"so what?"

"So...what?"

The girl's bewildered look made Lin Mo unable to keep up the act any longer, and he burst out laughing, "You, when you're smart, you're the smartest person in the world, and when you're silly, you're really silly too."

"Why can't you allocate some of your intelligence to emotional intelligence?"

An Youyu pouted and muttered softly, "You're slandering me. I'm not stupid..."

Hearing the cheerful laughter from the back row, Xu Huang seemed to feel younger and couldn't help but hum a little tune.

A dozen minutes later, we arrived at Shuangmu Building without incident.

After Lin Mo helped An Youyu out of the car, he saw that Xu Huang was still sitting in the car and showed no intention of getting out, so he knocked on the passenger window.

The car window rolled down, and Xu Huang asked, "Young Master, what is it?"

"Get out of the car, let's go inside together, it's too cold outside."

Hearing Lin Mo's resolute tone, Xu Huang felt a surge of warmth in his heart and grinned, "Yes."

The three entered the Shuangmu Building.

The spacious first-floor lobby is decorated in a warm white tone, giving it a very grand appearance.

Compared to the freezing cold outside, the hall was warm and cozy.

The warm feeling made An Youyu's eyebrows involuntarily lift up.

A reception desk was set up about ten meters to the left of the entrance. Noticing that people were coming, Zhao Shuishui quickly stepped forward and politely asked, "Who are you three looking for? Do you have an appointment?"

Lin Mo took off his mask. "I'm Lin Mo, a contracted artist with Shuangmu Entertainment. You can come and go as you please, right?"

An Youyu also took off her mask and raised her hand, "Me too."

When Zhao Shuishui saw Lin Mo's An Youyu, her eyes widened, and she nodded vigorously, saying, "Of course you can, you're here to film, right?"

"Correct."

"Manager Li from the publicity department is at the filming location on the twelfth floor. I'll take you there."

"It's troublesome."

The four of them took the elevator to the twelfth floor, where the entire floor had been transformed into various scenes, clearly intended as a backdrop for filming.

As always, An Youyu looked left and right, her little eyes darting around.

Xu Huang pointed to the rest area next to him, "Young Master, I'll just wait here. You and Miss can go about your business."

"Row."

Lin Mo and An Youyu followed Zhao Shuishui further inside. Soon, a woman wearing high heels approached them. She looked to be around thirty years old, and her smile gave off an approachable feeling.

"Young master, young lady; you've finally arrived."

Upon hearing this form of address again, Zhao Shuishui's expression became extremely strange.

No, what era is this?

Why is it still called that?

Besides, this is Shuangmu Entertainment, and Li Ru is the publicity manager of Shuangmu Entertainment. Under normal circumstances, signed artists should be very polite to Li Ru. Even if Lin Mo and An Youyu are very famous now, Li Ru doesn't need to be so enthusiastic, does she?

As a receptionist, Zhao Shuishui had no right to know any inside information.

They were even less aware that Shuangmu Entertainment was a business owned by the Lin family.

After Li Ru stepped forward, she nodded to Zhao Shuishui and said, "Alright, you can go back now. I'll take care of things here."

Zhao Shuishui suppressed her doubts and nodded, saying, "Okay, Manager Li."

After she left, Li Ru smiled broadly and said, "Young Master, my name is Li Ru, and I currently serve as the Publicity Manager of Shuangmu Entertainment."

"The company will be holding several more promotional events, which will require a lot of photos, so we're troubling you and Miss to make this trip in person."

Lin Mo smiled politely, "It's alright, it's what we should do."

Looking at the young man and woman in front of her, Li Ru couldn't help but exclaim, "Tsk, their looks... are simply unbeatable."

As she spoke, she took An Youyu's hand and said, "There are quite a few photos to take today, and the shooting time will probably be quite long. We can take it slowly. The initial plan is to shoot a total of ten outfits."

Lin Mo frowned. "So many?"

Li Ru explained, "The more photos we take, the more we can use. Ten sets of photos are enough for at least half a year. Since it's troublesome, I thought I'd take more so that it won't bother the young master and young lady in the future."

An Youyu tugged at Lin Mo's clothes, and Lin Mo immediately understood, "Sister Li, you can just call us by our names, you don't need to call us Young Master and Young Miss."

To be honest, he didn't like that title either.

Li Ru looked troubled. "Young Master, I dare not address your young lady by her name directly. It's not appropriate."

Lin Mo shrugged and gave An Youyu a helpless look.

An Youyu sighed softly and silently accepted the title of "Little Miss".

The two followed Li Ru to the selected shooting location, where two female stylists immediately began to do An Youyu's makeup. In reality, they were just doing her hair.

Lin Mo was no exception.

One outfit, one hairstyle.

The two were photographed separately, and the whole process went very smoothly. In less than an hour, Lin Mo had completed the photoshoot for ten outfits.

On the other hand, An Youyu's outfits required some traditional Chinese hairstyles, so the preparation took longer, and they only managed to shoot the seventh outfit.

Lin Mo watched for a while and discovered something very interesting.

Since joining Shuangmu Entertainment, I haven't seen a single man. Whether it's stylists, makeup artists, or photographers, they are all women.

This arrangement...

Really good!

Chapter 722 You're a dog!

An Youyu, who was filming, noticed Lin Mo, who had finished filming not far away. She gave him an apologetic smile, as if she was apologizing for not finishing filming yet.

Lin Mo smiled back, first shaking his head, then giving her a thumbs-up.

The female photographer glanced at the absent-minded An Youyu, then at Lin Mo behind her, looking rather helpless. After thinking for a moment, she turned around and came to stand in front of Lin Mo.

“Lin Mo, you can go explore other places first. If you stay here, the filming time will probably be extended by at least double.”

Lin Mo smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Okay, okay, I'll be going now."

After Lin Mo left, the female photographer was preparing to continue shooting when Li Ru came to her side and asked, "What did you say to Young Master... and Lin Mo just now?"

The female photographer recounted her conversation with Lin Mo as it was.

After hearing this, Li Ru's face darkened, and she scolded him impatiently, "Lin Mo can do whatever he wants. No one in the entire company can tell him and An Youyu what to do, understand?"

"I know."

The female photographer was startled by Li Ru's sudden change of attitude and hurriedly nodded.

Li Ru was finally satisfied and quickly caught up with Lin Mo. "Young Master, your men are ignorant, don't mind them. Do whatever you want, even if you have to demolish the Shuangmu Building."

Lin Mo stopped in his tracks. "Sister Li, the photographer did nothing wrong. She has a very proper work attitude. She shouldn't be treated differently just because of my status."

"If I'm not mistaken, did you just scold someone?"

Li Ru gave an awkward smile and stammered, unable to admit it.

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow. "Go and apologize to them. Even if Shuangmu Entertainment is owned by my family, we still have to follow the rules. Without rules, there can be no order."

"Young Master is right."

Li Ru nodded quickly in agreement. Just as she was about to turn and leave, Lin Mo's voice rang out again, "What Sister Li said just now was certainly wrong, but it depends on who you're talking to. I certainly can't make exceptions for her, but..."

He paused, then continued, "But Xiaoyuer can. She can do whatever she wants, understand?"

"understand!"

Li Ru nodded repeatedly.

Lin Mo smiled with satisfaction and went to the rest area near the elevator by himself. Looking at Xu Huang, who was surrounded by smoke, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

"Uncle Xu, you've got quite a smoking habit, haven't you?"

Xu Huang, who was scrolling through the news on his phone, saw Lin Mo arrive and quickly extinguished the half-burnt cigarette in his hand, giving an awkward smile. "It's alright, I don't have any other bad habits besides smoking."

"It's okay, I'll just take yours."

Lin Mo pointed to the ventilation vent above his head, "With this, the smoke won't dissipate."

Upon hearing this, Xu Huang skillfully took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket, lit another one, and took a satisfying puff before realizing that Lin Mo was staring at the cigarette in his hand. He immediately understood.

"Young master, would you like one?"
