Lin Mo nodded almost imperceptibly; the course of events was indeed the same as in his previous life.

"Mom, how about giving this tutoring job to my classmate?"

"This……"

Lin Shu remained silent for a while before slowly saying, "Xiao Mo, I can help her, but not as a tutor."

Lin Mo understood her mother's concerns and didn't say a word of nonsense. "Her grades are very good, excellent. She's more than capable of tutoring me."

"you sure?"

Lin Shu didn't quite believe it.

It must take a lot of energy for an orphan to support himself through school.

In this situation, it's difficult to maintain a good performance and avoid falling behind.

Lin Mo spread his hands. "Give me a way that you can believe."

"Isn't there a standardized test next week?"

Lin Shu thought for a moment, "If your classmate can get into the top ten in the grade in the unified exam, I can agree to tutoring him."

"It's a word."

Lin Mo's smile held a hint of malice. "Shouldn't we talk about salary next?"

Lin Shu chuckled, "You're trying to take advantage of your mother, aren't you? Fine, go ahead and tell me."

Lin Mo walked around the coffee table and sat down next to his mother, his face showing a flattering expression. "Mom, five yuan an hour is cheap enough, isn't it?"

"Huh? Five yuan?"

Lin Shu had expected her son to ask for an exorbitant price, but to her surprise, the price he quoted was surprisingly low.

Today she made a special inquiry and found that top-tier tutors in the market cost at least 100 yuan per hour.

Even the next-best tutor costs fifty yuan an hour.

In comparison, the price of five yuan per hour is as cheap as cabbage in the market.

Lin Mo held his mother's hand, "Mom, don't rush, I haven't finished yet, you need to make it up to me in other ways..."

A few minutes later, Lin Shu said with a complicated expression, "Xiao Mo, tell Mom the truth."

"say what?"

Do you like this little girl?

Lin Mo's eyes were focused. "No, that's not true. We're just normal classmates."

A look of relief flashed across Lin Shu's eyes; she knew her son very well.

"The conditions you mentioned are all fine, but everything depends on the girl being able to get into the top ten in her grade in next week's unified exam. If this prerequisite cannot be met, everything else is just empty talk."

"Thank you, Mom."

Lin Mo smiled knowingly, and just as he was about to return to his room, he was suddenly called back.

Lin Shu crossed her legs and said, "There's one more condition: you scored 432 points in the entrance exam, and you can't score lower than that in this exam, otherwise... you know what will happen."

Lin Mo stumbled. With his current level, let alone 400 points, even 300 points would be difficult for him.

However, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

He also understood this principle.

He made so many demands of his mother today, so it's reasonable for his mother to make demands now.

"it is good."

"hold on."

Lin Mo, who had only taken two steps, was called back again. He looked miserable and said, "Mom, can you just say what you have to say all at once?"

"No."

Lin Shu glared at her son. "I don't care if you like that girl or not, but before the college entrance exam, you can only be classmates, understand?"

"of course."

Hearing her son's unhesitating answer, Lin Shu added with concern, "You can date anytime, but you only get one chance to take the college entrance exam."

"Mom, have you ever heard of the term 'retaking a grade'?"

"Retake the exam?"

A hint of threat rose in Lin Shu's eyes, "Xiao Mo, have you ever heard of the number one punch that shocked Chang'an?"

"..."

Chapter 12 Advanced Reading Skills

At one o'clock in the morning, the room lights were still on.

After talking with her mother, Lin Mo stayed in her room to study.

They didn't even go to the toilet during the trip.

After reading the last line of text on the computer screen, he stretched and yawned, feeling sore all over. It had been a long time since he had experienced this immersive learning state.

It seems pretty good.

After going to the bathroom, Lin Mo lay down on the bed and then remembered the system task he had completed that day.

Development Value: 100

Lin Mo smiled when he saw that the growth value had increased from 0 to 100.

Upon entering the nurturing shop, only three items catch the eye.

All three items were enveloped in a ball of light. When Lin Mo looked at one of the balls of light, the corresponding item description appeared in his mind.

Advanced Reading Comprehension Skills

Skill Description: Greatly increases the host's ability to understand any knowledge.

Price: 100 training points

Lin Mo's eyes lit up; this skill was a godsend for him right now.

Improved comprehension skills will significantly enhance your performance in every subject.

Especially for subjects like Chinese, which rely entirely on reading comprehension, it's practically like having a cheat code.

Lin Mo thought to himself that once he acquired this skill, it would be like having a trump card.

With this in mind, I can say that I'm almost certain I'll keep my promise to my mother during next week's standardized test.

However, Lin Mo did not directly exchange for advanced reading comprehension skills.

As the saying goes, compare prices from three different vendors.

He patiently examined the remaining two items.

IQ +10

Price: 100 training points

Intermediate Composition Talent

Skill Description: Enhances the host's understanding of music and composing talent.

Price: 100 training points

After reading it, Lin Mo had already made up his mind. Just a second before he was about to redeem it, the system's voice rang out.

"Host, I advise you to choose to exchange for +10 intelligence. The chance of getting intelligence points in the training shop is very low, and increasing intelligence is equivalent to indirectly improving the host's abilities in all aspects."

"Thank you for reminding."

Lin Mo thanked him, but he was not prepared to accept the system's suggestion.

Looking at it from a long-term perspective, the system might be right.

But right now, he needs advanced reading comprehension skills.

Focus on what you need most right now; gains and losses are not important.

"Exchange for advanced reading comprehension skills."

"Exchange successful, 100 development points consumed."

As the system's voice sounded, a cool sensation swept through Lin Mo's mind.

This feeling comes quickly and disappears quickly.

In just a moment, everything returned to normal.

Lin Mo had a different feeling, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

To test his advanced reading comprehension skills, he sat in front of the computer and searched for the analysis of last year's college entrance examination Chinese paper.

A few minutes later, his eyes were filled with shock.

At this moment, he clearly remembered all the analysis of the test paper, and the relevant knowledge points were analyzed in detail.

Unlike before when it was vague, now I understand perfectly clearly why these questions are asked to be done this way and what the significance of doing so is.

too strong!

If that's the case, then...

Night slowly recedes, and light returns to the earth.

Around six in the morning, Lin Mo emerged from his bedroom with dark circles under his eyes.

Last night, he didn't sleep a wink. He went through all the Chinese language exam papers from recent years' college entrance exams, as well as various analyses and lectures by famous experts online.

In just one night, he could clearly perceive how significantly his Chinese language skills had improved.

They had originally agreed to have tutoring on Sunday, but An Youyu told Lin Mo that she had to help out at the library today, otherwise she might be fired.

Lin Mo had no choice but to agree.

After returning home, he locked himself in his room and studied diligently until late at night. He could no longer stay awake, so he went to bed.
