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

“I guess so.”

Bai Limeng nodded, strolled over to Lin Mo's side, sat down, and crossed her dazzlingly white legs.

"Speak up, I'll give you a chance to admit your mistake."

I'll strike first.

Lin Mo wondered to himself, how could he have made a mistake just for moving up a class?

If someone were to give birth to her in the future, wouldn't that cause a huge disturbance in Bai Limeng's womb?

Outrageous!

After thinking for a moment, he decided to teach her a counter-strategy, stroking his chin and gazing at her as he asked:

"Bai Limeng, do you think it's possible that you actually like me?"

"."

The girl froze, as if struck by a spell. Her hand, which had been supporting her head, slipped down as if oiled, and she lost her balance, her gaze and body contorted in shock.

The two looked at each other,

But before Lin Mo received her reply, he received the system's response first.

The girl, kept in the dark, felt angry and dejected, yet she still forced herself to start over.

Your unexpected question completely caught her off guard.

What you may not know is that this is a problem that has plagued her her entire life.

[Partial unlocking of incriminating information 100% complete]

[Loading dirt]

[Upon graduating high school, you unsurprisingly failed your college entrance exam.]

After finishing the exam, you locked yourself in your room.

You haven't shared this loneliness with anyone. You know clearly that in another two or three months, everyone will be scattered across the country, and you'll still be the same颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of being listless, dispirited, or demoralized) you.

Unexpectedly, your childhood friend who has always been unfriendly to you, Bai Limeng who always uses her grades to put you down, and the girl who always likes to mock you, suddenly knock on the door.

You did not respond.

Bai Limeng placed the carefully prepared meal at your door, but didn't linger or say much, only reminding you to eat well.

You may not want to admit it, but you unconsciously accepted her help because it seems like there's no one else in the world who would cook for you like that.

She gave you ample privacy and space, and served you without complaint for almost a month, until the day the results came out.

She discussed college applications with you and assured you that you wouldn't have to worry about money, as she could cover it. She even took you on a trip to enjoy your remaining vacation time. To your surprise, she specifically chose a university close to you, forcing her to accept a lower-ranked university despite her high scores.

You didn't notice anything amiss, and felt guilty and moved towards her.

[In college, she would come to see you whenever she had free time, and tell you not to associate too much with people at school, saying she was afraid that people in junior college would lead you astray.]

You obeyed her every whim, almost completely cutting off your social life at school, and moved out of your dorm to live with her.

Years have passed, and she's been through a lot with you. One drunken night while you were living together, she climbed into your bed almost without warning.

You're somewhat reluctant to be in a relationship with her, but you have no choice but to take on this responsibility.

Unlike other couples, you two aren't deeply in love because your lifelong familiarity makes it hard for you to let go of your resentment. Furthermore, her control over you is becoming increasingly excessive, but having always benefited from her kindness, you feel powerless to speak out.

At first, Bai Limeng only restricted your social life, but after you started dating, she also restricted your freedom. You had to report your whereabouts almost constantly.

Although you were somewhat disgusted by this, you accepted it entirely, since you were provided for by her.

[But after graduation, Bai Limeng began to completely restrict your personal freedom. Since she took over the family company, she couldn't be home often, but she insisted that you not leave.]

You expressed your dissatisfaction, feeling that she was exaggerating.

She ignored your feelings and repeatedly used material reasons to morally blackmail you, locking you inside the house.

After months of enduring solitary reflection, you realized that your life's failures were inextricably linked to Bai Limeng.

But you were powerless to do anything. You owed her too much, and you had shared too much with her. The complex emotions caused you to suffer from mental illness, and you had suicidal thoughts several times. Finally, you decided to try to commit suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning indoors.

Bai Limeng arrived just in time and took you to the hospital.

Upon waking, you angrily confront her, demanding to know if she truly loves you. You believe this isn't love, but rather a possessive and obsessive desire.

To your surprise, Bai Limeng didn't argue with you anymore.

She broke down in tears in front of you and couldn't give you an answer for a long time.

You thought this was another gentle offensive from her, the first time you'd avoided her vulnerable side.

She let you leave, and nearly a million yuan appeared in your bank account; you know it was money transferred from her.

But you can't contact her anymore.

You tried to use this money to start a business and prove yourself, but having always been protected by Bai Limeng, you were completely unable to support your entrepreneurial endeavors for several years, and it ended in failure.

Looking back, you realize that Bai Limeng has vanished without a trace, and her parents can't find her either. They can only occasionally receive anonymous text messages from her, but they can't see her in person.

You feel utterly dejected, realizing that your life has been utterly absurd, so you decide to settle for mediocrity, return to your small hometown, and take a sinecure.

【.】

Years later, after experiencing more, you received a letter.

That came from overseas.

[A suicide note]

The suicide note contained only a few short sentences.

She said she loved you 100% but also ruined your life.

[Inside the envelope, besides the suicide note, there was also a hospital report confirming the miscarriage.]

You are speechless; it turns out this is a love letter that is more than thirty years overdue, a final farewell.

[Remaining incriminating material awaits unlocking]

[Reward: Strength (Your body becomes stronger, which may make you more attractive to them)]

Are there still humans?

Lin Mo looked at the girl in front of him with an unusual expression.

He had been spacing out because of the system for five or six minutes, while Bai Limeng had been silent for five or six minutes.

It seems that for her, the question of "whether she likes it or not" is a question involving the ultimate philosophy of life.

In the scandalous affair, Bai Limeng finally realized that it was that thing that loved him, and then she just kicked the bucket.

Tsk. Damn it, it's modern times now, and people still say "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening"? You're also studying the Analects? Studying the Analects to support me, huh?

That's a classic case of "do not do to others what you would have them do to you."

To be honest, after learning about Bai Limeng's twisted thoughts, Lin Mo found it difficult to view her as a childhood friend or "female buddy."

Now, he also learns that she is a woman who will love him to the point of obsession in the future.

Those who treat her like a female brother are all like this (thumbs up).

If I had to articulate his feelings, the future was still too distant; he had no real connection to those unrealistic and ethereal things.

To be honest, Lin Mo was even a little excited, and then... regretful.

There was so much information and so many things to complain about that Lin Mo found it hard to believe the future would be this exaggerated.

But the text the system gave him, along with the blurry flashbacks and the subtle emotions it conveyed, all told him that if he did nothing about Bai Limeng, this dangerous person,

Their fate will inevitably be tragic.

A deep sense of regret took hold of his mind, warning him that he had to take action.

"Hey, why aren't you saying anything? Are you just naturally quiet?"

Lin Mo tried to ease the tension, thought for a moment, and then rolled up his sleeves to show off his recently enhanced biceps.

"I've been exercising lately."

"Dude, you've got a great body and you're handsome, it's normal for you to like me. Admit it, and I'll reluctantly let you be my concubine."

Bai Limeng's eyes flickered as she listened to his seemingly joking words, snapping back to reality.

She pursed her lips and rolled her eyes somewhat awkwardly.

"Really, you scared me. I thought you were in heat. What nonsense are you talking about? You're only fit to be my male concubine."

Bai Limeng crossed her legs, lifted her chin again, and hummed twice.

My gaze fell on his half-open collar, sleeves, and the hem of his shirt.

"When did I get such a great figure?" she thought lazily.

A struggle over whether or not she liked it welled up in the girl's mind, and for a moment, she seemed to forget why she was there in the first place.

All that remained was the hormonal surge brewing beneath the burning skin, and the gurgling sound of swallowing saliva.

Chapter 13 Shen Qingning is very down-to-earth

"So you've been secretly studying all summer?"

"Isn't that awesome? I can be really good when I work hard, and look what happened—I got promoted! Still trying to laugh at me?"

"It was just so-so, only scored a little over 590 points. Apart from math, the rest were not very good."

Bai Limeng tilted her head back, gulped down some water, and her slightly flushed face returned to normal.

"It's just that his grades are among the worst in the top class."

Lin Mo couldn't help but smirk. This Huang Mei was still pretending; she was practically drooling just now.

Oh dear~ Not so good~

"Just you wait, I'll definitely surpass you later."

"Oh~ you're really amazing." Bai Limeng gave a rather effeminate and disdainful smile.

Lin Mo was furious. The thought of being inseparable from this woman in the future, and even the possibility of her causing a death, made him uneasy.

It doesn't matter; his path of learning is already on the right track.

What are you babbling about? Wait until my grades surpass yours!

However, Bai Limeng probably has some psychological issues; a normal person wouldn't do something so yandere.

He thought being kept as a mistress meant living off a woman, but it turned out he would be locked in a dark room where he would never see the light of day again!

Poisonous woman!

Lin Mo could tolerate the idea of ​​Qingmei living off a woman, since she was indeed quite attractive.

But the yandere type who lives off a woman is a different story; that's not a tale, that's an accident.

"By the way, what about that friend of yours who wanted to give up?"

Bai Limeng changed the subject, afraid that Lin Mo had already seen through her thoughts, so she decided to test him.

"Huh? What friend? It's me." Lin Mo said casually.

The girl was stunned. Could he really admit it so directly? Was she really no longer friends?

"But you did quite well on the test, didn't you?"

"How can I show off if I don't let you think I did badly on the test? Don't you understand this secret thrill?" Lin Mo said cheerfully.

"Besides, who wouldn't like to be a kept man? But you need to have the means to be one, right? Which rich woman these days doesn't like a handsome young man with high emotional and intellectual intelligence?"

"If you're going to be a kept man, you have to stand up to eat," Lin Mo said solemnly. "Win over the rich woman's heart, then divorce her and divide half of her assets."

"After all that you've said, you still just want to give up, don't you?" Bai Limeng said bluntly.

"What kind of talk is that? People work hard their whole lives, only to end up giving up?" Lin Mo corrected her thinking.

"Of course, I might meet a rich woman who can make my heart flutter and also help me succeed. I'd be happy to live off her for the rest of my life."

"You think that way, but people might not think that way. Women are afraid that men will change their minds, so they'll definitely try to keep you tied down. Maybe they'll even lock you in the basement!"

Bai Limeng was either trying to show him some concern beforehand, or she was intimidating him to make him back down.
