An Youyu swallowed the food in her mouth and said unwillingly, "I really am an adult."
Lin Mo shrugged slightly. "I didn't say no."
"But you..."
"Eat your food properly."
An Youyu twitched her nose, her pretty face showing dissatisfaction, but she dared not disobey Lin Mo, so she turned her back on him with the eggs and ignored him.
Silent protest!
Lin Mo's lips curled up. He had originally wanted to take advantage of An Youyu's mealtime to see if there was anything in the girl's house that needed tidying up, but after looking around, he had no choice but to give up on the idea.
The room was small, but it was very well organized.
Perhaps due to loneliness, the room was decorated in a cozy style, with scattered drawings on the walls.
A row of neat glass bottles filled with various succulents were placed on the windowsill, and a few sticky notes peeked out from under the pink curtains.
The first time I came here for tutoring, the curtains were drawn; the second time I came, it was at night, and I only stayed for a short time, so I didn't notice anything.
Lin Mo could vaguely see words written on these sticky notes. Driven by curiosity, he was about to go forward to take a look when he took a step forward.
The next second, An Youyu stood in the narrow passage between the bed and the wall, her expression panicked. "What are you doing?"
Lin Mo pointed to the food on the table, "Sit down and eat."
"I'm stuffed."
An Youyu quickly walked to the window and drew the curtains. "You like these succulents? I'll give you one."
The attempt to cover up the truth only fueled Lin Mo's curiosity.
However, he did not expose An Youyu.
There's plenty of time and opportunities to come.
Lin Mo took the succulent plant bottle from An Youyu and patted her head with a smile, "Now that you've eaten, let's go."
"Ah."
An Youyu nodded hurriedly.
As Lin Mo turned around, he glanced at the area below the window that was hidden by the curtains, and walked out as if nothing had happened.
An Youyu followed closely behind.
After going downstairs, the cool air made her shiver.
Lin Mo handed the umbrella to An Youyu and took off his coat, draping it over her shoulders. "The temperature has dropped a lot, be careful to keep warm."
An Youyu tilted her head and nodded obediently.
I wanted to refuse, but I couldn't bear to.
After much deliberation, nothing was resolved.
"Don't give me all the umbrellas, your shoulders are all wet."
"You're dazzled."
"It was clearly wet..."
Chapter 53 The Many Flavors of Life
"come on in."
Lin Shu's face was full of smiles when she saw An Youyu outside the door.
Lin Mo looked at his enthusiastic mother, then at the apprehensive An Youyu, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips.
With this in mind, the future looks promising!
"Thank you for breakfast, Auntie."
As soon as she sat down inside, An Youyu thanked her, "But Auntie doesn't need to work so hard anymore. Youyu is an adult now and can take care of herself."
"What are you saying? I'm happy to cook for you, it's not hard work for me at all."
Lin Shu held An Youyu's hands, her smile as gentle as could be.
This scene moved Lin Mo to tears.
"Mom, you prepare lunch. Xiaoyuer and I are going to tutoring."
"It's only morning, why are you in such a hurry to prepare lunch?"
Lin Shu took An Youyu's arm and glanced at her son indifferently, "Yu'er just arrived, can't you let her rest? You need to work harder yourself, don't just let her help you without lifting a finger."
"Can……"
"But what do you mean, 'but'? I want to chat with Xiaoyuer for a while. Can't you be a little more considerate?"
"..."
Lin Mo slapped his forehead and became completely withdrawn.
This mother is good; however, she's a bit domineering.
An Youyu didn't dare to interrupt, afraid that she might say something wrong and upset one of them.
Lin Shu keenly noticed this, and her voice became even gentler, "Yu'er's grades are so good, have you decided which university you want to go to?"
“National Tsing Hua University.”
Lin Mo interrupted.
Lin Shu tapped on the coffee table, "Go to your room to study, don't disturb my chat with Yu'er."
Lin Mo rubbed his temples and glanced at the bewildered An Youyu. "Don't be afraid. You can chat with my mom in the living room. I'll go to my room to study for a while. My foundation is weak, so I need to work harder."
"Yes, keep it up."
An Youyu stumbled a little, and what she meant to say was "Go for it!" but it came out as "Go for it!" which made both mother and son burst out laughing.
An Youyu's cheeks flushed pink. "I... I don't usually stutter, I'm just a little nervous right now."
"take it easy."
Lin Shu pinched An Youyu's fair and tender little face, "Treat Auntie's house as your own home, do whatever you want, say whatever you want, don't be shy."
"Thank you auntie."
"Don't say thank you so easily."
The warm atmosphere put Lin Mo at ease, and he returned to his room to continue studying.
In the living room.
Lin Shu's expression held a strange undertone as she continued the conversation, asking, "Is your preferred university Tsinghua University?"
"Ah."
An Youyu nodded.
Lin Shu squinted, "Have you decided what major to choose?"
"It's relatively niche."
"It's okay, just talk to your aunt."
An Youyu stared longingly at Lin Shu, "I like... antique restoration."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shu's expression shifted slightly. "Is it fate?"
An Youyu tilted her head, "Fate?"
Lin Shu waved her hand, "No, it's nothing."
This reaction made An Youyu mistakenly believe that Lin Shu didn't like the major of antique restoration. She hesitated for a moment, then lowered her voice even more, "If Auntie doesn't like the major of antique restoration, Youyu can choose another major."
Lin Shu stared at the girl in front of her, her eyes full of genuine sincerity. "Silly girl, when did Auntie ever say she didn't like antique restoration?"
"Go ahead and choose if you like it, Auntie supports you."
An Youyu's dim eyes regained their light, and her radiant smile brightened the entire living room. "Thank you."
"Saying thank you again?"
Lin Shu deliberately put on a stern face, "Yu'er, if you always act so formally, Auntie will be sad."
An Youyu's voice changed in her anxiety, and she blurted out, "Youyu will definitely be more careful in the future. Don't be sad. If you are sad, Youyu will be sad too."
Looking at the girl who had suddenly become more articulate, Lin Shu couldn't help but chuckle and said, "This is much better. Be more natural at Auntie's house, and don't always keep your head down. Xiaoyuer is so beautiful, it's not like she's ashamed to be seen by others."
"...I'll get used to it, and I'll be more careful with the juvenile fish in the future."
The ephemeral beauty of the night-blooming cereus is fleeting.
Courage lasts only a moment.
Lin Shu smiled wryly at An Youyu's sudden change to shyness, but also felt a pang of sympathy.
How much suffering did this girl endure in the past? The hand holding An Youyu tightened involuntarily...
The wind rustles through the treetops, and time flows by silently.
at dusk.
Under the camphor tree, the rosy light filtered through the leaves, dappling Lin Mo and An Youyu.
Lin Mo stopped in her tracks. "You have school tomorrow, so remember to go to bed early tonight."
An Youyu nodded obediently, then, as if she had thought of something, she nudged Lin Mo's arm, "Wait for me, I'll be right back."
After saying that, she turned and ran into the residential area, her back view showing a hint of joy.
Lin Mo leaned against the tree trunk, waiting patiently, a slight smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips.
In the midst of this tender moment, the scene of An Youyu's car accident in his previous life suddenly and uncontrollably flashed through his mind, and his face gradually turned pale.
People must be protected!
The car needs to be scrapped!
"Lin Mo, what's wrong?"
