"I'll definitely like it," Lin Mo replied instantly.

He couldn't remain silent for too long in response to Li Qingran, as it would make her feel abandoned.

"Why?" Li Qingran asked immediately.

"If it blooms for you, it means it likes you."

"Flowers bloom for those they love." Li Qingran repeated his words in a more philosophical way.

"Lin Mo..."

"Hmm...what's wrong?" Lin Mo took a sip of Jianlibao (a popular Chinese soft drink). Jiang Wanfeng's noodles were damn dry, just like her—dry, but not so dry that he needed a little beverage to soothe his throat...

"I will also open up to you."

"Oh, it's good to be open...we can't keep it closed off..."

Wait a minute? What did you say?!

"Pfft!" Lin Mo spat out the Jianlibao he had just drunk.

"Lin Mo, did you vomit blood?" Li Qingran asked worriedly when she heard him make a sound.

I'm so angry I could vomit blood... If I'm going to vomit, it'll be for fun, baby.

But there are so many flaws that I don't know where to begin.

Is this a direct confession?

Da Meiyou Ranjiang, let me think about it. If I agree to your request, can you prepare to have ten children like Jiang Wanfeng?

Probably not.

The intelligence report didn't include a warning, so Li Qingran's expression probably wasn't about romance.

The innocent, budding love of youth is far too dangerous for a naive and inexperienced girl like Li Qingran.

Moreover, love is a great responsibility, and Lin Mo couldn't just make promises to the young girl so easily.

Moreover, she is Li Qingran.

For her, love is a lifelong responsibility and a lifelong commitment.

"If you're vomiting blood, use sanitary napkins..." Li Qingran anxiously offered her experience-based advice.

Sanitary napkins have also arrived.

"Hiss... I didn't vomit blood, I just choked."

Ranbao, that's called Aunt Flo... Although it's also a form of vomiting blood in some ways, one is on top and the other is on the bottom... Okay, you win.

Li Qingran's ingenious logic left Lin Mo unable to find any loopholes.

He didn't want to give her a future full of flaws.

We need to guide her away from thinking about dangerous emotions, at least not now.

"Lin Mo, will you open up to me?" After learning that Lin Mo didn't need sanitary napkins, Li Qingran continued to ask, following up on her question.

really,

Even someone as naive as her, after what had happened in the past two days, had become somewhat aware of what was wrong with her; after all, she was just a young girl...

"Of course."

"So, you like me."

You're being a bit ambiguous. A straight shot isn't supposed to be this straight; at least make a turn, okay? You can't just go straight onto the highway.

"I like it," Lin Mo couldn't deny, "but there are many kinds of liking."

“We live in the same house, we’ve been in the same courtyard since we were little. I feel like family to you, we’re like family without any blood relation.”

"Your affection for me is the same."

“Friends…” Li Qingran suddenly interjected, “Are we friends?”

Oh, and Ran-chan seems to value friendship a lot too; the more she lacks something, the more she longs for it...

"Family members are also friends."

"Ah."

"Friends should stay together forever." Li Qingran began to unleash her boundless imagination again.

"Let's pick up trash together."

"Planting flowers together, watching cartoons together, playing pinball together, eating together, sleeping together, hanging from the horizontal bar together, playing video games together..."

"We go to school together and go home together after school."

The girl had many dreams, but none of them came true.

In such a noisy era, who would bother to constantly think about those old, broken, and small gadgets?

Being there for her is one thing; the real key is being able to tolerate these lifestyle habits that are completely at odds with our fast-paced modern life and accompany her through a simple, ordinary life.

That's the biggest worry for the young girl.

"I'll be there for you no matter what." Lin Mo made a bold statement, marking his most courageous moment in the most resolute episode.

"We will make up for whatever we missed before."

"Hmm..." The girl paused upon hearing his words, as if to verify his promise, and asked cautiously:

"Lin Mo...I, I want to eat cotton candy."

"Buy it for you."

"Lin Mo, I want to see the Monkey King..."

"I'll watch movies and anime with you."

"Lin Mo, I want to play Fireman."

"Play, play, play whatever you want."

"Lin Mo, I want to eat spicy strips..."

"You should eat less of this... I remember you weren't allowed to eat it when you were little?"

"Lin Mo, I like you so much..."

It's Ran-chan! I like you too! Lin Mo was smitten, a smile playing on his lips.

“Just one sentence…” Li Qingran added.

Good, good, you can punctuate well. You're so young and you already have the talent to catch up with people's opinions. What will you be like in the future?

"Which sentence?"

"It's a secret," Li Qingran said, keeping everyone in suspense.

Holy crap? Ran-chan is this playful? Your persona is supposed to be aloof and cool, don't do this kind of thing!

Lin Mo's face flushed slightly, but upon hearing the girl's ethereal voice, her flush quickly subsided.

The sound is so chilling; it must be so cool to sleep with it in the summer.

The girl was in a good mood, controlling the blocky character as it bounced around in the game.

The girl transformed that simple, matchbox-like house with its floor-to-ceiling windows into a second life.

The house was filled with torches, and the walls were covered with fluorite, making it brightly lit.

She cultivated a plot of farmland, and Lin Mo provided her with seeds; she fenced off a pasture, and Lin Mo brought her pigs, cattle, chickens, and sheep.

The girl was exceptionally energetic in the game, spending her days tending the farmland, watching the wheat grow, tending the pasture, and watching the piglets, calves, and chicks grow, even following the chickens to collect eggs.

She saw two cows and two pigs meet, and then a piglet and a calf appeared. She would curiously ask Lin Mo why she didn't see them mating... and why they were born so quickly...

That's not how it's written in the book.

Mom, what kind of animal is this?

Lin Mo thought for a long time before telling her that it was because she watched them mating that they got nervous and gave birth in no time, omitting the intermediate process.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingran seemed to suddenly understand.

Then Li Qingran's miniature figure pulled Lin Mo's miniature figure to the ranch.

The girl controlled the little figure, repeatedly pressing the crouch button to rub against him, CCB.

Lin Mo was dumbfounded. What the hell did Li Qingran mean?

"Why?" the girl asked, still puzzled.

Why what? Just want to rub against you.

"We also showed it to the piglets and calves."

"Why didn't they suddenly 'slip' and give birth to little Lin Mo and little Qing Ran?"

Lin Mo was sweating profusely, thinking to himself that Li Qingran's ability to apply what she learned to new situations was too strong; no wonder she was a top student, he couldn't just fool her...

"It's because you didn't pay..." Li Qingran had just asked when Lin Mo interrupted her, before she could finish pronouncing a word that started with a "p" tone.

"Uh, uh, we'll talk about that later..."

"Okay." Li Qingran obediently accepted.

"Lin Mo, I didn't study biology." She then explained her academic background. Li Qingran's chosen subjects were physics, chemistry, and geography, just like Lin Mo's.

"Can you teach me?"

"What are they teaching..." Lin Mo thought to himself. He hadn't really learned anything... To be honest, he hadn't learned anything from books, but what he'd learned from small websites...

"To give birth to a child."

It was another straight shot, the kind aimed at the corner.

"It's from a game, right..." Lin Mo blushed, gasped, feeling cold sweat beading on his forehead, yet also inexplicably excited.

The girl remained silent for a moment, which made Lin Mo nervous.

“Hmm…” she replied.

That's it? That's it?!

"I've forgotten a bit. Let me look it up and I'll teach you later." Lin Mo remembered there were mods in games that allowed characters to reproduce; he'd add one later.

To avoid Li Qingran asking him at school if he could have children... that would be too terrifying, he would definitely get arrested by the teacher.

After finishing her work in the fields and tending the pasture, Li Qingran began repairing the house, adding a fence around the roof to create a balcony.

After collecting the eggs and planting the wheat, the girl quietly sat on the balcony, watching the clouds drift by, waiting for him to return from outside.

When he returns, it will be the happiest time of her life.

When the two little ones sleep together, she pretends to be really asleep, and speaks to him on the phone in a soft, whispered voice.

It seemed as if the girl was truly lying beside him, murmuring incessantly into his ear.

"Lin Mo, Lin Mo, are you asleep...?"

"Lin Mo, Lin Mo...do I not have to go to school tomorrow...?"

"It seems like... school officially starts next Monday, September 1st, and we'll have a two-day weekend."

"Shh... Lin Mo, Lin Mo... you're being too loud..."

"Uh..."

"I heard the pig's voice... you woke it up..."

"Quickly say... Little Pig, I'm sorry..."

"I'm sorry, little pig..." Lin Mo chuckled, simply adopting Li Qingran's childlike way of thinking.

"Lin Mo, Lin Mo... come visit me tomorrow, okay...?"

Is this your real purpose, Ran-chan? The map of Yan is a bit long.

"Ranbao, Ranbao, I'll definitely come to play with you tomorrow..." Lin Mo's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.

Goodnight, goodnight...

Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, the girl truly treated gaming as her life.
