They are in their final year of high school and are heavily dependent on me.

Isn't this already beyond what's expected? Will the future hold a Platonic relationship with her, one that feels distant and unfamiliar?

[Some of the dirt has been unlocked]

More than a decade later, the beautiful woman by your side is no longer there.

One death after another led you to drink heavily every day, and weeping uncontrollably became a regular occurrence; you were immersed in grief.

[For no apparent reason, your bank account keeps receiving extra money every now and then. You assume it's an inheritance left to you by your deceased wife, Xu Lingxi, or perhaps Bai Limeng, Shen Qingning, or even Li Zhihan. There's no right or wrong in love; you only feel guilty towards them. You can't forget them and dare not touch a single penny of that money.]

One day, you bought charcoal. In your cramped rented room, you starved yourself for three days and three nights, reading the suicide notes of several women, weeping all the while. Finally, you decided to light the charcoal.

You fainted.

You're awake.

You are lying safely in your bedroom bed, with a bowl of noodles and a glass of water beside you.

[You don't understand, you clearly have no relatives or friends left in this world, who did all this? Or have you lost your mind?]

You decide to end your life again, in the same way, and once again you faint and wake up to find medicine by your bedside; someone has saved you.

Besides you, the only other person who can enter and leave this house is the landlord. Curious, you call to inquire.

The original landlord said that the landlord has changed, and the new landlord's surname is Hu.

Coincidentally, the source of the money that frequently transferred to you was also a woman surnamed Hu.

This curiosity gives you a little motivation to keep living.

[Then one day, you started frequently finding small notes on your door. The notes always advised you not to commit suicide and also hoped you wouldn't contact her.]

The writing style is very childlike, like a child's. The person in the notes often shares her daily life with you, and her childlike words add color to your life.

You begin to think, "The deceased are gone; instead of grieving, it's better to find them again."

You decided to use the money to build a cemetery for several girls who left a deep impression on your life.

You approached their family, recounted your past, endured all beatings and hardships, and did whatever it took to buy them their coffins, finally managing to move them to the cemetery.

This simple task took you thirty years.

The note on your door has been there for thirty years, unchanged.

[In your old age, worn out by overwork, you fulfilled your last wish. Realizing your days were numbered, you decided to lie in the cemetery on a cold winter's day, close your eyes, and review the fleeting moments of your life.]

You thought of a girl, a girl who was always by Bai Limeng's side.

On her deathbed, she came to you.

You jokingly ask her if she'd been tricked by Bai Limeng, wondering why she'd be with him. That's an exaggeration.

She said no, and then put her coat over you, asking if you were cold.

You said you weren't cold, and then you heard her crying.

You smile, then sigh a second before your heart stops beating, realizing you've unknowingly incurred another debt of love before you die, one you can only repay in the next life.

[Remaining incriminating material awaits unlocking.]

"."

No wonder I felt something was off today; seeing Bai Limeng made my mind race.

So I was waiting here.

"I don't dislike it." Lin Mo took a deep breath. "Let's go, Bai Limeng might have left the school first."

Upon hearing this, Hu Meng's lips, which had initially been pouting, curved upwards for a moment before bending back down, as if she felt she shouldn't be too happy too soon.

"I really don't dislike it," the girl confirmed again.

"What's so annoying about you? At most, I just think you're easy to fool." Lin Mo turned and walked away, slowing his pace to wait for her to catch up.

"Then if you do well on the exam."

Hu Meng ran excitedly to him, her eyes sparkling.

"Just like Li Meng, there's a reward. I'll show it to you, and you show it to me too, okay?"

“Okay.” Lin Mo looked at her and, as if possessed, ruffled the girl’s hair. “I’m not sure I’ll do well on the test either.”

Hu Meng froze on the spot after being patted on the head.

I was in a daze for several seconds until I heard Bai Limeng's voice calling from the end of the corridor.

"Mengmeng~ Let's go~"

"Lin Mo, is this how you treat her?"

“No, uh,” she said, stunned.

"Oh, right, the reward for doing well on the test is that you wear stockings for me to see."

"Get out of here!"

Chapter 109 Zhihan and the Bullet

The following day, before the Chinese language exam.

The exam starts at 9:00, but we only start preparing to enter the exam room at 8:30, which is a classic example of wasted time.

The classroom wasn't exactly noisy, but it was definitely not quiet either.

Lin Mo told Xu Lingxi a joke about betrothal gifts, and she gave him a good Wing Chun punch.

The girl's face was puffed up with anger. She wanted to explain that her family didn't ask for a dowry when their daughter got married, but she knew she couldn't talk about this kind of topic with her nasty classmate. It was so embarrassing!

It makes it seem like she really wants to marry someone.

Bah, shameless!

"Humph."

However, she had also learned her lesson. If she couldn't win an argument with Lin Mo, she would resort to violence! This guy was tough; he wouldn't break.

Upon seeing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but chuckle.

Keep hitting me, keep hitting me. Every punch is worth 80,000, and it will all be added to your dowry.

Expensive? Where is it expensive? It's been this price for so many years. Think about whether you've worked hard enough. My parents raised me for so many years and I'm finally getting married. Shouldn't I repay them?

What? I don't have parents?

So what? Does that mean they can be unfilial even in the afterlife? I'll exchange all your dowry for ghost money and burn it for them.

If you can't even come up with this little bit of money, you don't love me at all!

To be honest, it felt really good to have Xu Lingxi's fists hitting him. Every time she threw a punch, she would hum in a childish voice, which made him feel even better.

He felt a strong itch in his prostate, so he got up from his seat to relieve himself.

Lin Mo had barely stepped out of the classroom when a group of clowns followed him in a chilly manner.

"Hey, you're letting the water run unauthorizedly! You've broken the law!" Guo Huowang slid in to intercept him.

"It's not good for unity if one person urinates alone! Comrade Lin, your ideological awareness needs to be improved!" Qiu Wuqi and Guo Huowang joined forces, banging on the door like ghosts.

"I heard someone is in the third exam room."

Guo Huowang, with a smug look that seemed to want to make Lin Mo fly, said, "Damn it, I've finally found your weakness, Bro."

"We'll go to the third exam room later to show off, and give you some pointers while we're at it." Qiu Wuqi patted his belly. "You're welcome, buddies."

"Biyang's." Lin Mo saw through this group of people. The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind. These scoundrels were just waiting to show off in front of him today.

What good does it do you to laugh at me?

“No,” Li Yu said, adjusting his glasses. “But mocking you won’t do us any harm.”

"屮."

"With grades like that in Class Two, you'd only be considered a little girl," Li Yu said with a lewd grin.

"Just wait to be fed on grass." Guo Huowang and Qiu Wuqi both had lewd grins on their faces.

Lin Mo was speechless. He was just about to spew out some non-human Nantong slang to disgust these people when...

Suddenly, Chen Wenxin and Huang Yaoyao walked out of the classroom with a water bottle.

When the girl saw him, her gentle brows relaxed, and she greeted him:

"Lin Mo~ Um, are a few other classmates also going to the administration building?"

Going to the administration building, in Class 2, is equivalent to going to the toilet or getting water.

“Yes.” Lin Mo nodded.

Guo Huowang and his group, upon hearing their names being completely ignored, glanced at Lin Mo and their faces darkened.

"Oh, do you want to come together? Or do you go by yourselves?" Chen Wenxin said softly with a smile.

"Your mother, you're not allowed to go." Guo Huowang grabbed Lin Mo's arm tightly, put on a mask of pain. He was supposed to be showing off, but Lin Mo had managed to pull it off again.

He was shivering with anger and cold. When would he finally get invited to the restroom by a girl?!

In school, going to get water with someone of the opposite sex was already a very ambiguous act, tantamount to making it official.

But Chen Wenxin also had a half-asleep Huang Yaoyao next to her, whose gender was negative, so the balance was just right.

But this is something they cannot allow!

Should I choose my best buddy or my best girl? Definitely my best buddy!

"Never mind, I'll go with Wangzi and the others."

Lin Mo was considerate of his brothers, and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Oh okay."

Chen Wenxin turned around, took a few steps, still worried. Since yesterday, she had been wondering if Lin Mo would be demoted.

So, even knowing she couldn't offer any real help, she still turned back and said:

Good luck on your exam!

After all, a young girl might think that psychological support is better than nothing, and it doesn't matter how many times she says encouraging words. Even though she said it just yesterday, she will naturally say it again before the exam.

"Uh, yes." Lin Mo was taken aback. Chen Wenxin was quite righteous. Seeing him being bullied by Wangzi and his gang, she even helped him bully back.

Guo Huowang and his friends' faces darkened even more. They weren't quite clear on the rules of the promotion and demotion system, but they knew that Lin Mo was incredibly cunning.

"You're too gloomy. Even the grass by the roadside can't photosynthesize because of you," Guo Huowang said disdainfully.

"No, it's like seeing history. Even grass wouldn't survive without him as fertilizer," Qiu Wuqi added.

Just as the group was about to say something more, Chen Wenxin left, and then footsteps came from the back door of the classroom.

Shen Qingning and Zhang Xinyi also happened to come out hand in hand.

Upon seeing Lin Mo, the class monitor waved the two water bottles in his hand.

"I just went to find Lingxi. She's angry with you and doesn't really want to come out. I was getting water for her and noticed your water bottle was empty, so I filled it for you too."

The group of male high school students stood there dumbfounded, silently retreating. Lin Mo himself was also taken aback.

The class monitor watched this scene with his quirky smile unchanged, only one corner of his lips slightly curled up.

She thought to herself, "Won't this give Xiao Chunan a direct orgasm? He'll be happier and probably do better on his exams."

"Let's go, good luck on your exam."

"Okay." Lin Mo felt that he had heard the word "good luck" a lot these past two days.

He was like someone standing on the beach, slowly sinking into the sea, gradually becoming numb, and eventually losing all feeling.

Is he really mentally challenged? Do all the girls in this class love to take care of the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled?

I cried. When will the men of the Lin family finally rise up?!

"I'm speechless! Go pee on your own!" Guo Huowang couldn't hold back any longer. "Having a 'popular' like you in the class is disgusting!"

"He's not a 'real person,' I suggest he be stripped of his male status." Li Yu strictly speculated, "Girls no longer see him as a man."

"Born!" Guo Huowang roared in a fit of impotence. "You wait, I'll post this on Tieba right now!"

Guo Huowang reached into his pants to pull out his phone, but halfway through, he felt a chill run down his spine.
