"That's what my father left me..."

"That's not our stuff! And he's not your dad!"

"Mom...I..."

"Parents are not allowed in the school..."

"..."

A moment of silence followed, then Lin Mo caught a glimpse of this scene from around the corner of the stairwell.

Hu Yu'en was cornered against a wall by a woman who bore a striking resemblance to her... Her former sunny and energetic "white moonlight" image was completely gone.

The woman was memorable; her deeply furrowed brows and sharp demeanor made her seem like someone not to be trifled with...

"Yu'en, listen to your mother, you're all I have left..." The woman held the girl's shoulders, her voice hoarse.

“That’s not our stuff. He’s not your dad anymore. The money in there is filthy.”

“Listen to me, go get it and give it to your mother, give it back to him, cut ties with him completely, and let’s live a good life together as mother and daughter.”

Hu Yu'en clenched her hands, her fox-like eyes no longer holding any cunning charm, only a hint of grievance remained.

"..."

Do you feel like your mother has embarrassed you?

"No, Mom, I..."

"Hey, you're here!" At this moment, Lin Mo pretended to be passing by and greeted them.

When the girl saw him, her breath caught in her throat, and she secretly shook her head at Lin Mo.

You can't come over... No.

"You are..."

"Yu'en's classmate."

"Calling each other so intimately?" the woman frowned and criticized. "Yu'en, you should stay away from people like this..."

Holy crap, what a freak! Now you can curse at me without any guilt.

"I found her meal card." Lin Mo's polite smile vanished instantly, and he casually pulled out the meal card he had just used to spend money on Shuangwaiwai. "Here to return it."

Upon hearing this, the woman paused, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"Thank you..." the woman reached out to accept...

"Hey, Auntie, don't rush."

Lin Mo stuffed the meal card back into his pocket and said seriously,

"The school prohibits non-student teachers from entering without permission, this is putting me in a difficult position..."

"..."

Lin Mo led the woman downstairs.

"Please, turn left at the exit to the bus stop."

The woman looked up and saw that the security guard had come on duty...

"Give the security guard a pack of cigarettes, and he'll act like nothing happened."

Where can I buy cigarettes?

“Hua Zi, go to the cafeteria and buy it from the owner. You have to mention Li Huowang’s name, and he can give you a 30% discount.”

"what?"

......

After seeing off Hu Yu'en, Lin Mo finally experienced the joy of being single.

Just as he turned around, Hu Yu'en, hiding in the shadows around the corner, tugged at the hem of his clothes, her head bowed and her expression humble.

It looks like a ghost.

Don't mess with me, sis. If your sycophant gang sees this, they'll kill me.

"Lin Mo...why are you helping me? I've already given you everything..."

"Then I have nothing to give you..."

"I never wanted the meal card in the first place," Lin Mo laughed. "I just don't like your mom, it's not like I'm helping you."

"Then why are you still with me..."

"Hey, hey, stop! Because you're Jiang Wanfeng's friend, I'm helping you overcome your psychological barriers, so don't talk nonsense!"

"..." The girl didn't say anything, but she loosened her grip on his clothes.

"You've noticed... haven't you..." she whispered again, "I'm not actually that glamorous..."

Lin Mo glanced at her; the exclamation mark above this extraordinary woman's head was incredibly bright.

Damn it, here we go again.

"No way." Lin Mo, like a mischievous imp, scurried upstairs in a few quick steps.

The first piece of information that popped up was that this fake "white moonlight" was about to cry.

Lin Mo had no reason to reopen someone else's wounds; he'd rather leave her to cry alone.

As for the rest, it depends on fate.

...

Evening self-study,

"Hmm, do you think boys don't like someone like me?" Jiang Wanfeng, while doing her homework, suddenly felt annoyed and nudged her best friend and classmate, Hu Yu'en.

"Huh? Ah, Lin Mo... what?" Hu Yu'en was in a daze when she was poked and almost jumped up, exclaiming loudly, immediately attracting the attention of the whole class.

P-chan, Bao Jin, and their group exchanged furtive glances, trying to confirm whether their beloved class monitor had indeed called out Lin Mo's name.

Jiang Wanfeng blushed deeply.

"Hey, why did you have to say that! I haven't even said it was him..."

"Haha..." Hu Yu'en gave her an apologetic look. "I'm sorry, Fengfeng, I... I was just thinking that you and Lin Mo are a match made in heaven... so I blurted it out..."

"No way...he, he...I don't know what he thinks of me..." Jiang Wanfeng's eyes also showed a hint of melancholy, which surprised Hu Yu'en.

Her best friend should be proud and aloof... so why is she feeling insecure?

What am I supposed to do if you do this?

With her only source of pleasure gone, she will be left with nothing but numbness, a monotonous existence controlled from point A to point B...

Her facade had been ripped off, and she felt fear whenever she saw him... And the guilt she already felt towards Jiang Wanfeng... was amplified infinitely after the initial shock subsided...

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing..."

...

"Lin Mo, what's wrong?"

Li Qingran took out a tissue and handed it to him.

"I don't know who's been cursing at me, I've sneezed more than a dozen times!"

"Sizzle! Splash splash..."

Just then, a bolt of lightning struck from the sky, followed by thunder, and a torrential downpour began.

The girl instinctively leaned closer to Lin Mo, her gaze wandering for a moment before returning to him, and she felt relieved.

The students in the class got up and closed the windows, grumbling and cursing. The wind and rain outside made the shadows of the trees sway.

"Don't be afraid." Lin Mo patted Ran Jiang's shoulder amidst the chaos, thinking to himself, "Why is the weather so uncooperative during this exam..."

“Mr. Sky… sneezed too.” Li Qingran looked up at him and said, “Lin Mo, you’re just like the sky.”

How strange, how come the pain from sneezing just flew away? Ran-chan, did you use superpowers again?

"Holy crap, Lin Black Dog, where are you putting your hands?!"

Li Huowang came back from urinating outside, soaked in the rain, and then was fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection). He was furious.

"No, nothing's wrong." Lin Mo withdrew his hand.

The exclamation mark in the distance was still focused, a chaotic mess mixed with the thunder and rain.

I hope everything is really alright.

Chapter 31 Small Shura Field

Monday morning, the first day of school, exam venue.

Lin Mo is panicking. He has no idea how the exam venues are arranged. Damn it!

Exam rooms are usually arranged according to scores, with students who have higher scores sitting at the front.

Lin Mo had thought that being in the second examination room would allow him to perfectly avoid being separated from Li Qingran, Jiang Wanfeng, and others.

However, since this was the opening exam, the school simplified the exam room arrangement, shuffling the seating between every two classes to take the exam directly.

Li Qingran, Jiang Wanfeng, Hu Yu'en, Chen Yajie... Lin Mo was thinking that at least they shouldn't all be together, and it would be best if Li Qingran and Jiang Wanfeng were separated...

The result, of course, was somewhat difficult to handle.

In the area where he was sitting, Li Qingran was on his right and Chen Yajie was on his left. That was alright, at least Jie Bao was relatively soft... practically half blind.

But when he saw Jiang Wanfeng's pencil case on the seat in front of him, he was completely stunned, as was Hu Yu'en...

In front is Jiang Wanfeng, and behind is Hu Yu'en.

Hu Yu'en should just pretend she doesn't exist, since Lin Mo now has leverage over her, although she also has leverage over Lin Mo...

Fortunately, Jiang Wanfeng was sitting in front and wouldn't usually look back, which meant he was practically blind!

Next, all you need to do is tell Ran-chan not to get too close to him...

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Li Qingran mimicking him, squinting and cautiously observing her surroundings.

They met each other's eyes.

Ran Jiang saw Lin Mo sitting there warily and assumed he was playing some kind of role-playing game.

As the saying goes, "the wife follows the husband's lead," so the girl leaned over the table, her cool little face tense and alert.

"Shhh."

Li Qingran brought her slender white index finger to her lips, making a shushing gesture... it felt very secretive.

Uh.

Okay, Ran-chan, you can think that way too. Oh, right, I'm just playing a game with you, so don't say anything until the game is over.

With the exam time fast approaching, and to avoid direct contact with Jiang Wanfeng in front of Ran Jiang, Lin Mo decided to leave the exam room first to relieve himself.

Once Jiang Wanfeng and the others have entered the examination hall, and the exam is about to begin, he will pretend nothing happened and return to take the exam. At this point, Jiang Wanfeng will have no way to chat with him.

Hey, perfect! As soon as the exam was over, he ran off to a place where there were no pretty girls and happily studied by himself!

Women, don't even think about stopping his progress.

With that in mind, Lin Mo quietly moved closer to Ran Jiang.

"You stay here and watch my pencil case. I'm going to the bathroom."

Li Qingran nodded seriously, her expression aloof and solemn.

Then, he turned and glanced at Li Huowang and his group, who were laughing and joking in the corridor.

"Hey, Wangzi, go and drain the water."

Lin Mo slid in and broke into the encirclement of this group of losers.

"Damn it! You've already been expelled from our group! And you still dare to come back?!"

"Hey, we're all brothers."
