"I..."

This is a much bigger pit than Jiebao and the fox; the concept of home has always been a fairy tale that Lin Mo has created for her.

It is also the spiritual pillar that has enabled Li Qingran to live a good life and live to this day.

Lin Mo looked directly at the girl who had been with him since childhood. Li Qingran's psychology was the only aspect of intelligence that couldn't be directly verified and communicated to him.

Perhaps it was the girl's heart that was too pure, or perhaps Li Qingran's thoughts and logic were so innocent and naive that even cheat codes couldn't penetrate them.

To be honest?

After hiding it for so long, should I tell her about Jiang Wanfeng's existence...?

She made herself very clear today. She understood exactly what was going on with Ya Jie, and Ran Bao must have noticed Hu Yu'en's unease as well.

Lin Mo didn't actually hope to keep it from Li Qingran forever; in fact, he initially considered revealing it to her so she could vent her emotions.

After all, Li Qingran would definitely, definitely not disobey him.

However, the more one cherishes a young girl, the harder it is to do such a thing. Unconsciously, Lin Mo also developed feelings for Li Qingran that went beyond the normal range.

A month ago, he was only thinking about unrealistic solutions like rescuing or taking responsibility, and without a second thought, he ended up having close relationships with four girls in a row.

To say he did something wrong?

If they hadn't done it, what would these girls be doing now?

He had no choice but to save her or not, but he did have a choice about whether or not to reveal his true feelings to Li Qingran.

The former's pressure comes from external sources, while the latter's pressure comes from within.

The inner threshold will be a bit higher.

What I fear most is this kind of situation. It's not that he's a coward; he never intended to shirk responsibility. But what if Li Qingran goes crazy again and runs off to Zisha?

One more time?

Ya Jie followed along and danced.

One more time?

Where is Jiang Wanfeng? Where is Hu Yu'en?

What should we do then? Can they be saved?

It's probably not that exaggerated, but Lin Mo always considers the worst-case scenario as a given.

The best approach is to proceed gradually, allowing them to slowly notice and discover the changes, experience initial discomfort, and then adapt and get used to it...

Don't let it be a huge explosion.

Lin Mo's thoughts were actually quite dark, because he knew that the girls were all kind and gentle by nature. Regardless of their personalities, they were all inherently soft and delicate...

Therefore,

With friendship as the bond, when everything can no longer be hidden, the girls will definitely consider their friendship and will first doubt themselves rather than blame others.

For example, Lin Mo knew his test was successful because of Chen Yajie's reaction today.

After making a guess, Jiebao's first thought was to be tolerant and deceive herself, trying to maintain the balance and consider other people's feelings first...

Jiang Wanfeng, despite her sometimes fiery temper, has reached a point where losing her friend and gambling with him would be the end of the world for her...

People are bound to be afraid when faced with the unknown.

Lin Mo thought, would Jiang Wanfeng also back down like this?

Hu Yu'en would curl up into a small fox ball, while Chen Yajie would smile silently, albeit with a forced yet gentle expression.

Li Qingran...

But just like the repeated deceptions today, how could Lin Mo not know what he had done wrong? One lie leads to another.

But Lin Mo couldn't bear to watch any longer. Hearing their heartfelt words, so fragile and sorrowful, he still endured it all, remaining as pure and kind as ever.

How the hell can you even watch this?

How the hell can I watch this...?

unconsciously,

Lin Mo stared blankly at Li Qingran's face.

I had been lost in thought for a while; the setting sun had begun to turn from golden to dark red, and the pale moon had quietly appeared on the horizon.

The sunset today was beautiful; the fiery red clouds stretched across the sky, creating an ambiguous, fiery glow that seemed to be laying out a red carpet for the full moon tonight.

But this meant that Lin Mo didn't have time to keep up; evening had arrived.

Judging from the current situation,

Jiang Wanfeng and Li Qingran, you have to choose one.

You fucking pick an egg...

My vision dimmed slightly, and the girl's natural fragrance, which had already filled my nostrils, wafted towards me on the fragrant breeze.

"Lin Mo, don't be afraid..."

Suddenly, the girl hugged him, an embrace without any ulterior motive, a simple snuggling.

"Don't be unhappy."

When Li Qingran hugged him, her chin rested comfortably on his shoulder, allowing him to feel the weight of her embrace.

Her slender arms wrapped around his back, pressing tightly against him, each finger gripping him tightly so he could feel the warmth of her embrace.

"It's Qingran's fault, Lin Mo doesn't need to say anything."

"At night, Qingran can stay at home and watch the same moon with Lin Mo."

"Qingran won't ask anymore, she doesn't want to know..."

Li Qingran stopped crying, her frail body didn't tremble at all, and her breathing was steady as she spoke.

He was even more composed than him.

From Li Qingran's perspective, she should have cried hysterically.

The more the girl acted this way, the less Lin Mo could hide it any longer, and he decided to confess...

"Yes... I have another home."

"Shhh."

This is the second time today that Li Qingran has covered my mouth.

In the past, he would probably have considered whether to engage in any lewd behavior, such as taking advantage of someone.

But to do it now would truly mean being born.

Thinking about it is forbidden, even thinking about it is a sin.

"Ranbao, I actually have time to spend with you tonight..."

Li Qingran didn't listen to what he was saying, but shook her head and continued talking to herself.

"Qingran is grateful to her for taking care of Lin Mo... and for helping Lin Mo grow up."

Lin Mo was taken aback.

Li Qingran used "she," referring to a person, not saying, "Lin Mo's family took good care of Lin Mo..."

Suddenly, she realized something. Although Lin Mo tried his best to avoid mentioning his foster family to her,

But this naturally led the girl to easily associate it with...

Why did Lin Mo hide it? If he simply wanted a home and a family, why would he keep it from her?

Based on her observations over the past month, Li Qingran had come to realize that Lin Mo would lie to her about things involving other girls.

The reason she kept it a secret was perhaps because there was another girl like her in that family, so she didn't dare tell her.

Lin Mo's hesitation and clumsy tricks today confirmed Li Qingran's suspicions.

She knew that such a person existed, but she didn't know it was Jiang Wanfeng.

My heart ached. This is...

"Lin Mo is so tall and powerful now, that's why he can protect Qing Ran. Qing Ran is very happy."

"I'll stay with you tonight..."

"Hmm~ No, I don't want it anymore."

Li Qingran continued to shake her head, her hair brushing against his cheek.

"Mid-Autumn Festival, a time for family reunion..."

Li Qingran seemed to be smiling, just as Lin Mo guessed.

That smile was probably both tragic and beautiful, but he dared not look at it, afraid that if he did, he would never forget it and would die of guilt...

"Lin Mo, thank her on Qing Ran's behalf."

"Lin Mo gave Qing Ran a home..."

I want to give you a home for the rest of your life, Ranbao.

"Qingran isn't stingy, so she returned it to her."

The girl planned to give him tonight as a gift to Jiang Wanfeng.

At this point, Lin Mo was completely numb, hesitant to speak further.

My mind was a complete mess; I didn't know what to say. All I wanted to do was cherish the girl in my arms, but my hugs were loose and weak, and my words were just a bunch of nonsense.

Lin Mo was momentarily stunned. Ever since he pulled Li Qingran back from the brink of death, he had never told her the truth again.

It was all the truth that she discovered, step by step, through deduction and investigation, that was quite cruel to her.

"Let's go."

The girl sensed his stiffness and released her grip.

The bell rang twice, indicating that the girl had taken two steps back.

"Lin Mo, we're having mooncakes tonight."

"Eating while looking at the moon, I realized how much Qingran misses you."

"..."

Ran Bao,

Lin Mo slapped himself, snapping out of it.

He had barely taken a step towards her when the girl took two steps back, her face cold, and shook her head at him.

"No."

"Lin Mo, you can't."

The girl's expression and attitude were quite resolute.

She was encouraging Lin Mo to be bold and try something new, for the first time, to leave her behind and do something else.

No one can make Lin Mo abandon her reservations, so let her set a precedent; otherwise, Lin Mo will remain unhappy.

Compared to Lin Mo, Li Qingran was the one truly fulfilling her promise; she firmly believed she possessed superpowers.

The ability to make him happy.

Lin Mo stopped and looked at her.

Everything we do or say now is hindsight, but we still have to say it.

"I'll spend time with you when I'm done with my work."

"Qingran wants to sleep alone today."

"Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival..." Lin Mo tried to explain.

"If I stay up until the early hours, it won't be Mid-Autumn Festival anymore..."

Li Qingran held the purse, squeezing and kneading it, looking very girlish, but the words she said were heartbreaking.

"Qingran will be waiting for you tomorrow."
