My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

"Can't you?"

"Of course not!"

Lin Shu glared, "My son, Lin Shu's son, absolutely cannot be a gigolo!"

Lin Mo coughed lightly, without batting an eye, "Mom, my stomach isn't good, the doctor suggested I..."

"You'd better not say what comes next."

Lin Mo's voice stopped abruptly, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously; of course I won't be a kept man. Don't worry, my son will definitely work even harder in the future."

Lin Shu was finally satisfied, then changed the subject: "Fish is only one thing. Didn't you want to know about your maternal grandparents' side? It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I won't be able to take you to meet them until you are good enough."

Hearing this, Lin Mo frowned. "Why?"

"because……"

Lin Shu's expression was complicated. After a few seconds of silence, a hint of bitterness appeared in her eyes. "I've let them down!"

Lin Mo's expression shifted. "Is it because of... Su Wenyang?"

"If it wasn't him, who else could it be?"

Lin Shu's eyes reddened. "I bet everything on him, but he made me lose everything. The moment I found out he was cheating on me, I felt like my internal organs were collapsing. If it weren't for you, I would have definitely dragged him down with me!"

The sorrow in his expression was so extreme, so unforgettable!

A sense of loneliness permeated her entire being, and this loneliness, mixed with her existing fatigue, made her body appear even thinner, which was heartbreaking.

"Mom, I'm sorry."

Lin Mo quickly stepped forward and hugged his mother, "Your son is being immature and has reminded you of these unhappy things again."

"fine."

Lin Shu turned her head away and wiped her eyes. "So much time has passed, Mom has long since let it go; he's just a beast!"

Lin Mo felt heavy-hearted and gently patted his mother's back. "Yes, just a beast!"

In fact, he knew that his mother was not as open-minded as she claimed.

Otherwise, her mother wouldn't be able to hold back her tears every time Su Wenyang was mentioned.

Deep love, deep hatred!

The reason why my mother hates Su Wenyang so much now ultimately stems from that love she gave her all back then...

After calming down, Lin Shu kicked her son in annoyance, "You brat, don't mention Su Wenyang's name in front of me again."

"As ordered."

Lin Mo chuckled awkwardly and changed the subject, "Mom, are you hungry?"

"You are hungry?"

Lin Shu stood up and said, "It's not good to eat too much at night. Mom's frying skills have improved recently, so I'll show you."

"Not hungry!"

Lin Mo's expression changed slightly, and he quickly rejected the idea.

Eating fried eggs made by my mother late at night?

He had tried it once before, and unsurprisingly, something went wrong; he was rushed to the emergency room that very night…

Seeing her son's reaction, Lin Shu couldn't help but laugh. "Xiao Mo, is it really that serious?"

"I... I don't want to go back to the hospital. Can I show it tomorrow morning?"

"make a deal!"

"..."

Seeing his mother agree so readily, Lin Mosheng looked up and sighed helplessly.

have to.

Fooled again!

After his mother returned to her room, Lin Mo also went back to his room to continue studying, not resting until after 3 a.m.

The next morning.

The sun rises in the east, its soft light complementing the gentle snoring in the room.

Unfortunately, this scene didn't last long. A knock came at the door, and Lin Mo, with dark circles under his eyes, got up and opened it.

Lin Shu covered her mouth, "Wow, a giant panda!"

Lin Mo: "..."

Having such a mother is both funny and frustrating.

Lin Shu tidied her son's messy hair. "Go wash your face, then go for a run; when you get back, Mom will fry you an egg, okay?"

Lin Mo's face twitched as he glanced back at the clock on the wall.

It was only a little past seven in the morning, and he had slept for less than four hours in total. Coupled with the threat of the fried egg, all he wanted to do at this moment was to roll his eyes and pass out.

"Mom, can I refuse?"

"can."

Lin Shu's smile was exceptionally warm. "However, Mom has one request as well."

"any request?"

"Let me beat you up first."

In an instant, Lin Mo's sleepiness vanished without a trace. "I'm going to wash my face."

Hearing the sound of water coming from the bathroom, Lin Shu's smile quickly disappeared, replaced by heartache. She whispered, "Xiao Mo, don't blame Mom; if you insist on asking about things over there, then you need to become excellent as soon as possible."

After running two laps around the neighborhood, Lin Mo stood at the entrance for a long time. Only after he had mentally prepared himself did he walk into his home.

"Mom, I'm back."

"Get ready to eat."

When Lin Mo sat down at the table, he was surprised to find that there were no fried eggs in his breakfast.

Before her son could ask, Lin Shu pouted in displeasure, "What are you looking at? There are no eggs left in the house, consider yourself lucky, kid."

Lin Mo didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

The way he said that made it sound like his mother wanted to kill him...

Lin Shu had only taken a few bites when her phone rang. She got up, walked a few steps away, and answered, "Hello?"

"Bullshit! I checked that thing three times, there's no way there could be a problem!"

"That's all for now, I'll be right there."

Lin Mo lost his appetite, and his burning thirst for knowledge was too intense to suppress. As soon as his mother hung up the phone, he immediately asked, "Mom, what happened?"

"nothing."

Lin Shu wiped her hands, walked to the door, changed her shoes and instructed, "No need to clean up after you finish eating. Don't be distracted when you're home alone. Study hard."

"Mom, how about... I take you?"

Lin Shu glared at her son, annoyed. "Stop with your little schemes. You'd be better off focusing on your studies. When it's time to tell you, Mom won't hide a thing. I'm leaving."

"boom--"

Lin Mo stared at the tightly closed door of his house, and the thought of following him vanished.

Forget it.

Some shortcuts are available, while others are not.

Since I made a promise with my mother, I must abide by the rules of the game.

If you're going to win, you have to win fair and square!

From sunrise to blazing sun, and then to sunset.

More than ten hours of intense practice problems left Lin Mo with a throbbing headache, forcing him to lie in bed and clear his mind for a while.

Not long after he lay down, he suddenly remembered that he still had 200 cultivation points to use. With a thought, his consciousness entered the system's cultivation shop the next second.

This time, only two orbs of light came into view.

IQ +10

Price: 100 training points

Miraculous Hands

Passive skill: Modifies the host's hand structure, allowing the use of the hands to reach the pinnacle of human capabilities.

Price: 200 training points

Just as Lin Mo finished looking at the two items that had appeared, the system voice sounded.

"Host, I advise you to choose to exchange for +10 intelligence. Although you have already obtained intelligence points several times in a row, the probability of obtaining such intelligence points is extremely small. Don't take it lightly. If you miss it once or twice, you may not be able to find it again when you want to improve your intelligence."

"Thanks for reminding."

Lin Mo's gaze was fixed on the skill, and after a few seconds, he had made his decision.

"A master of exchange."

"..."

Chapter 76, the inner volume, begins with him.

"A master of exchange."

"Exchange successful, 200 development points consumed."

Whether it was a misperception or not, Lin Mo could faintly detect a hint of resentment in the system's voice.

However, he didn't think much of it, because as soon as the system's voice disappeared, his hands felt like they were being roasted in a fire pit.

The temperature of my hands rose rapidly, and within seconds my skin turned bright red.
