My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

At this moment, Lin Shu was no longer in the mood to argue with Li Zhaoye and Liu. "Teachers, as for which plan to use, let's not waste our breath here. I have already submitted your proposal. The decision should be made by the Elders' Council."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhao and Ye Liu exchanged a glance but said nothing more.

The two did not linger any longer and clasped their hands in farewell before taking their leave.

After the two left, Lin Shu pointed to the conference table not far away and said, "Don't stand there, sit down and let's talk."

As soon as Lin Mo sat down, An Youyu handed him a teacup. "Drink some water. Even though it's cold here, the climate is very dry, so be sure to drink plenty of water."

"Thank you."

Lin Mo picked up the steaming hot teacup, his eyes involuntarily narrowing.

Sure enough, I was happiest when I was with An Youyu.

Even if he does nothing, just sitting and chatting makes him very happy.

Lin Shu sat opposite the two men, looking them over before finally fixing her gaze on her son. "You're something else, kid. I was wondering why you agreed so readily back then. Turns out you had a backup plan."

Hearing his mother's teasing, Lin Mo chuckled, "How can you do things without having a backup plan?"

Lin Shu rolled her eyes at her son. "How long are you planning to stay this time?"

How long will you stay?

Lin Mo's expression turned extremely strange at his mother's question. "Mom, don't you know me?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Shu immediately understood and chuckled, "Xiao Mo, the archaeological work is not going smoothly. We have encountered a problem that, even if it can be solved later, will probably slow down the normal excavation process and will not be completed in the short term."

"If you want to take the fish with you, you'll probably have to wait a while."

"That won't work!"

After listening to his mother's explanation, Lin Mo shook his head without thinking and said, "Mom, there are only ten days left until the end of the month. It will take at least two days to get back to the capital from here, so I can only stay here for eight days at most. After eight days, I will take Xiaoyuer away."

Lin Shu shrugged. "I don't care. As long as Yu'er is willing to go with you, I'm fine with anything."

At this point, she smiled knowingly, "But... would the fish be willing to go with you?"

Before Lin Mo could speak, An Youyu spoke first, her expression quite serious, "Auntie, I'm not leaving. I've been here for almost three days and haven't even seen the ruins yet. I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving no matter what."

Lin Mo rolled his eyes and explained earnestly, "Little ancestor, the company is waiting for us to go back and film the variety show. Because you suddenly have to participate in this archaeological project, the filming time of the variety show has been postponed and can't be postponed any longer. We must return to the capital before the end of the month and participate in the recording of the variety show on February 1st."

An Youyu pouted her lips and lowered her head slightly, "I don't want to film variety shows..."

Lin Mo smiled wryly, "Little Fish, the variety show the company is preparing is called 'Dragon and Phoenix Splendor,' and it's a huge production. It has invited a group of the most popular celebrities in the entertainment industry today, as well as all the members of the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking."

"You might not know this, but the company has already spent over a billion yuan on this variety show. If you don't go back..."

"How many, how many?"

Before Lin Mo could finish speaking, An Youyu's eyes widened, her pretty face filled with disbelief.

A billion or more?

Be nice!

Is producing variety shows really that expensive?

She has 100 million yuan and feels like she could never spend it all in several lifetimes. Sometimes she even thinks she's a little rich woman. But now Lin Mo tells her that the variety show the company is preparing has already cost more than 1 billion yuan before it even starts filming.

This news gave her a strange feeling.

money……

Is it going to last this long?

Lin Mo wasn't surprised at all by the girl's reaction; it would have been strange if she hadn't reacted this way.

"The company has invested heavily in this variety show. If the two of us main characters don't show up on the filming day, do you think Sister Xue and Sister Qiqi will be furious with us?"

"This one……"

An Youyu's jade lips parted slightly, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Lin Mo gently patted her head and comforted her softly, "Don't worry so much, right? You just want to see the ruins, that's easy, I'll go with you tomorrow."

An Youyu's face lit up with surprise, her eyes sparkling. "Really?"

"More real than a needle!"

"Hook."

"..."

Lin Mo looked at the jade-like fingers in front of him and felt helpless.

Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Lin Shu quickly interrupted their conversation, pointing the finger at her son, "Xiao Mo, I'm the one in charge of this archaeological project. When did it become your place to make decisions?"

Lin Mo didn't explain anything, but simply took out the pass with the highest level of authority and slammed it on the table, "Mom, you are the project manager, that's true, but I now have the same rights as you."

"Before we came here, Chief Li told me that the level of the pass represents the rights. In other words, I now have roughly the same rights as you. I should have the right to decide something as trivial as letting Xiaoyuer see the ruins, right?"

"you……"

Lin Shu was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth, but she couldn't say anything in response.

Because what my son said is indeed true.

At the archaeological site, the level of the pass signifies privilege...

An Youyu was afraid that Lin Mo would get beaten up, so she quietly tugged at his clothes under the table and whispered, "Talk to your aunt properly, or you'll get beaten up."

Lin Mo gave An Youyu a look, signaling her to relax, and smiled at his mother, "Mom, I'm not deliberately trying to provoke your authority as the project manager. I just want to bring Xiaoyu back to the capital before the end of the month."

"You saw her attitude too. She won't come back to the capital with me unless I let her see the ruins."

"Correct!"

An Youyu nodded vigorously, then a hint of confusion appeared on her face. "Auntie, since you brought me here, why won't you let me enter the excavation site?"

"The young fish really can't understand the intricacies of this situation. If you didn't want me to go into the excavation site, you might as well not have brought me here in the first place."

"This one……"

Meeting An Youyu's slightly displeased gaze, Lin Shu calmly changed the subject, "Yu'er, I'm thirsty. Go to the supply depot and have them bring me a bucket of water."

An Youyu's gaze was deep and she sighed almost inaudibly, "Auntie, when I come back, I will also ask you about it clearly. You can't escape it."

Lin Shu: "..."

After watching the girl leave the tent, she sighed helplessly.

Seeing his mother sigh, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, you know this is a site from before the Xia Dynasty, and you also know that Xiaoyuer is allergic to things from before the Xia Dynasty, so why did you still bring her here?"

"I……"

Lin Shu smiled wryly, "Actually, at first, I just wanted to bring Yu'er to join in the fun, and I didn't intend for her to go to the archaeological site."

Hearing this explanation, Lin Mo couldn't help but laugh out loud. "So what do we do now?"

Lin Shu glared at her son, annoyed. "You have the nerve to ask? I never said Yu'er should go to the archaeological site. You were the one who said it. Now you're asking me what to do? How am I supposed to know what to do?"

Lin Mo curled his lip at his mother's attempt to shift the blame, "Mom, you saw Xiaoyuer's attitude just now. She's already here. If you don't let her go to the archaeological site, do you think she'll leave willingly?"

"In the end, it was you who jumped in. If you hadn't encouraged her to come in the first place, none of this would have happened. Tell me, isn't that the truth?"

He's good at shifting blame too!

Chapter 817 Confession

"Hey, you little rascal..."

Lin Shu's face was dark as she glared at her eldest son through gritted teeth. She had noticed that since starting university, the boy had become increasingly arrogant and assertive.

Come to think of it, it seems like it's been a long time since she beat up that kid!

or……

Should we beat them up now?

Lin Shu was never an indecisive person; once he made a decision, he would not change it.

With that in mind, she took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and revealed a malicious smile. "Xiao Mo, Mom's been a bit tired lately. As her son, it's not too much to ask that Mom relax a bit, is it?"

Seeing his mother's posture, Lin Mo instantly guessed what she was planning and smiled without changing his expression, "Mom, can we not be so unreasonable?"

"Reasonable?"

Lin Shu's smile deepened. "Xiao Mo, in your memory, have I ever been reasonable?"

Lin Mo shook his head. "No."

"Then I'll still go with it."

Lin Shu waved her hand, "Come on, make a sacrifice and let Mom pamper you."

Lin Mo's lips twitched. "Mom, that's enough. It was one thing for you to beat me before, but now I'm an adult. It's not appropriate for you to beat me all the time like before. What would Xiaoyuer think of me if she saw us?"

Lin Shu thought about it carefully, "That seems to make sense..."

Lin Mo looked utterly hopeless. "Mom, to be honest, you need to change your habit of hitting people at the drop of a hat."

"Also, you're still young, how about finding me a stepfather?"

Lin Shu's breath hitched, her teeth grinding together. "Xiao Mo, do you know what you're saying?"

Lin Mo said with a serious expression, "Mom, I'm not joking, I'm very serious."

"You can't let Su Wenyang make you disbelieve in love, can you? You have to believe that there are still good men in the world, and with your qualities, it won't be difficult to find a good man."

Lin Shu tapped the table. "That's enough! Is this something you should be worrying about?"

"mom……"

Just as Lin Mo was about to speak, he noticed An Youyu entering the tent, and his words stopped abruptly.

Lin Shu glared at her son with annoyance, then acted as if nothing had happened and waved to An Youyu with a smile.

"Fish, come here."

An Youyu slowly walked to Lin Mo's side. "Auntie, the water will be here soon. Can you tell me now why you won't let Youyu go to the archaeological site?"

Lin Shu glanced at her son, but her son was looking up at the top of the tent and ignored her completely.

This made her want to curse. "Ahem... Xiao Mo, what are you doing?"
