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

"Are you really not going to write anymore?" Lin Mo asked.

"I bet it will rain heavily again later, so the power will be cut off, classes will be suspended, and homework won't be collected."

Guo Huowang bit his finger and said resolutely:

"I'll bet ten years of my lifespan!"

"That's quite a gamble." Lin Mo glanced at the sky outside the window again. It was dark at night and he couldn't see the rain clearly, but he could hear that the rain was getting lighter and the wind didn't seem as strong as it had been in the afternoon.

Poke~

Suddenly, Xu Lingxi finished a set of test papers, and seemingly had something she had been holding back for a long time to say to him. She poked his waist.

"Did you bring an umbrella?" she asked softly, pursing her lips.

“I remember you’re a day student. If it rains, I don’t need an umbrella since I live on campus.”

The well-behaved girl still couldn't get used to initiating conversations during evening self-study; she glanced at Lin Mo and then looked away.

"I see you don't seem to have brought an umbrella either, so I'll lend it to you."

Lin Mo hesitated for a moment. Actually, he had a raincoat. But he still said:

"I didn't bring any, give me yours."

"Ooh ooh." Xu Lingxi looked like a little girl who had received a red flower, her eyes sparkling like a rabbit's, and she couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.

She took out an umbrella, the canopy neatly folded, clearly having been specially arranged for her to look good. This young woman must have been waiting for this opportunity.

"Here you go."

"Thanks." Lin Mo accepted it.

He could, of course, refuse with ease, but that might shatter the good intentions that this proud and aloof girl had been holding onto all day.

Even though he had already laid down an agreement of equality and mutual assistance for their relationship on her birthday,

But whether she felt good or bad when she accepted his help was hidden by her poor communication skills.

"I also have rain boots," Xu Lingxi said, puffing out her cheeks and adding another word.

Her good intentions were tested step by step.

Like a baby rabbit just hatched from its burrow, you have to give it a carrot before it will take a step forward.

Lin Mo accepted her umbrella, which gave her the courage to help him more.

Therefore, proud and arrogant people are often coy and hesitant.

She wasn't born that way; it's just that her strong will and self-esteem have made her cautious in her relationships with others.

I fear that excessive enthusiasm would make her significance seem hypocritical, and I also fear that excessive distance would make her presence seem cold and distant.

People are just so conflicted. But...

Lin Mo looked down sharply at her little feet. Hmm, she's wearing her shoes properly.

Xu Lingxi felt the gaze on her and pulled her legs closer. She usually liked to keep her legs together and slightly angled, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right, but lately she had been unconsciously leaning towards Lin Mo's side.

"What are you looking at?"

"Baby, your feet are so small, I can't wear your clothes."

"Don't call me that, it sounds weird to me. I've told you so many times."

"Oh, what should I call her? Xixi? Lingxi? Xiaoxi?" Lin Mo offered several options.

Xu Lingxi was stunned when she heard him call her "Xixi" for the first time. A blush crept up from the roots of her ears, and she bit her lip, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Anyone who saw this scene would probably think that she had been sexually assaulted by Lin Mo.

"No... It sounds weird." She hurriedly opened the kettle to drink water, but when she stuck her tongue out, she realized there was no water left, and she was immediately embarrassed.

"Then I'll just call out whatever comes to mind, whatever it is."

"."

Lin Mo chuckled. The proud rabbit might be a bit awkward, but it was also quite fun to tease.

Perhaps because of her fair complexion and slender figure, Xu Lingxi blushes immediately appear on her cheeks whenever she feels shy.

Battle reports may be deceiving, but the front lines will not.

That's great! I won't need to wear blush anymore when I do my makeup. It's a money-saving tip.

However, someone like Xu Lingxi doesn't need much makeup; just eyeliner, eyebrow tattooing, and lipstick are enough for her to look perfect.

Tsk, that's why you should always marry a beautiful wife; you can save money on cosmetics that way.

Since we've already come this far...

As the saying goes, a man who marries a good wife has already achieved half the success.

If he married two women, wouldn't he be guaranteed success?

Since you've already married two, why not marry more?

"What are you thinking about? Why aren't you saying anything?" Xu Lingxi poked him again.

"I bought a larger size of rain boots, but they should fit you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo stopped daydreaming. Just now, he had thought that it would be incredibly satisfying to marry them all.

Although we still have to return to reality, oh well, what if?

People should always have dreams.

"Oh, what size?"

"It's much bigger than my foot, about a third bigger." Xu Lingxi stomped her feet twice on the floor.

"have a look."

"Huh? We're still in the classroom." The girl was taken aback, then lowered her voice.

Lin Mo pondered for a moment, "Well then, come over here and put your feet together with mine so we can compare."

"Oh"

Xu Lingxi shifted her body, tilting her left foot so it touched his right.

Suddenly, Lin Mo leaned closer, then bent down, grabbed her ankle, and compared it to her foot.

The girl was startled.

His thighs were pressed tightly together; I had no idea his pants were so thin. I could feel how hot he was.

Boys' body temperatures are all so high.

"Damn it! How come the rain has stopped?!" Guo Huowang exclaimed, jolted awake from his novel and seeing that it was no longer raining outside.

"No manners, always babbling 'mama' all the time," Li Yu said disdainfully.

"That's what a mama's boy is like," Lin Mo straightened up and complained.

"."

Xu Lingxi also looked out the window. She didn't want the rain to stop. She wanted Lin Mo to wear her rain boots and hold her umbrella. If it didn't rain, it would be easier for him to get home.

Thinking this, her gaze shifted to Lin Mo, and she was about to ask him if he had figured it out yet.

Then Lin Mo took the hand that had just grabbed her ankle and sniffed it.

Her pupils suddenly dilated.

"?"

"What are you doing?!" (in a low, anxious voice)

"Uh?"

"You just touched my foot!" (whispering, sounding aggrieved)

"Oh, it smells pretty good."

Lin Mo laughed awkwardly, then accidentally touched his nose out of habit, thus becoming a gourmet for once.

The next few chapters are quite important~ There will be more before midnight~ Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, meow~

Chapter 80 In the torrential rain, the girls each have their own troubles

Lin Mo was subjected to passive-aggressive treatment.

The first evening self-study session had just ended when his good deskmate unusually forcefully dragged him to wash his hands.

Back in her seat, she remained sullen and silent.

No need, baby, it actually smells really good.

If I had to describe the flavor, it's a little sweeter than Shiraiyumu.

Lin Mo tried to coax her with a few lame jokes, but they all had the opposite effect. The girl bared her little rabbit teeth and looked fierce, as if she would bite him if he said another word.

I surrender, meow.

Lin Mo was thus left all alone.

The socially awkward cat sitting behind Lin Mo was still asleep. Perhaps it was because she'd drunk too much milk and stayed up late; Lin Mo watched as she drank all three cartons in one go.

The saying "things reach their extreme and then reverse" is true; she's now sound asleep.

I did my homework for a while.

"what"

Guo Huowang, who had been engrossed in a novel all night and hadn't touched his homework, suddenly looked up at the sky and sighed.

"What the hell are you doing here? What's your name?" Lin Mo said disdainfully.

Guo Huowang turned off the Little Genius Watch and entered "wise man mode":

"Sigh, aren't there any female characters in real life who are both arrogant and cowardly?"

"You're getting all out of breath just from reading a novel," Li Yu said. "Go back and masturbate."

“I do have some brothers, and you definitely know them,” Lin Mo said with a smile after thinking for a moment.

"Who is it? Where is it?" Guo Huowang's eyes lit up immediately.

"Empress Dowager Cixi," Lin Mo replied sincerely.

"."

"Your mother! Your birth! You disgust me!"

"Hehehe"

After joking around for a while, Guo Huowang went back to reading his novel, and even secretly searched for what Empress Dowager Cixi looked like, which made him gag and his stomach hurt.

The wind and rain outside seemed to have completely subsided, so Lin Mo opened the window to let in some fresh air.

At this time,

Xu Lingxi suddenly handed her a note.

Lin Mo looked closely and saw that the girl had written several neatly square characters:

"Letter of self-criticism"

"I, Lin Mo, admit that I just made a mistake by being unhygienic, which offended my good classmate Xu Lingxi. I promise to be hygienic from now on."

Oh, so Xi Bao is a germaphobe.

"Signature." Xu Lingxi glared at him and grumbled, "That's dirty, you can't do it anymore."

"Understood, understood." Lin Mo nodded, although Xu Lingxi's behavior was a little childish.

But as long as they can make up, who cares if it's childish or not? It's just so cute.

Fake tsundere: After a conflict with you, she gives you the silent treatment until you come to apologize.

True tsundere: After a conflict with you, although she might act coy, she'll still find ways to take the initiative to make up with you.

Lin Mo picked up his pen and wrote his name, along with a reflection:

I examine myself three times a day.
