Anyway, he said that there really were stars in his eyes, very beautiful stars.

......

"It's so late, why hasn't Lin Mo come back yet?"

In the apartment, the haughty young woman sprawled on the sofa, clutching her phone. She typed a string of words into the chat box, typed and deleted, typed and deleted again, and finally just lay there resignedly, muttering to herself.

On the dining table, a large pot of mixed stew was ready, with an alarming amount of chili peppers, made entirely to Lin Mo's taste. Although it didn't look very appealing, it was the best Jiang Wanfeng could manage.

The girl's eyes were still red, and tears kept falling as her eyelashes fluttered—all from the spiciness of the chili peppers.

But on weekends, in her spare time, she could cook a meal for her sweetheart. Even though Jiang Wanfeng didn't understand romance, disliked affected sentimentality, and was shy and unable to express herself,

But she longed to see Lin Mo come home exhausted, to see her sacrifices, and to be able to sit down and have a proper meal with her—how heartwarming that would be...

Why do I always want to put more effort into cooking?

It's nothing more than an attempt to make up for past foolish, willful, and unreasonable behavior, such as "never eating at the same table with him."

Only now do I understand that watching him eat the meal I painstakingly prepared—the meal I painstakingly made, the meal I cut my fingers while chopping vegetables, the oven scalding my skin, the meal I made tear up from the smell of onions and chilies—was a truly blissful experience.

She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but the happiness she felt was definitely greater than when she bullied him as a child.

"Honestly, why aren't they back yet? It's already past six..."

Jiang Wanfeng's finger hovered over the phone keys, about to dial, but then she suddenly hesitated.

If she calls him back for dinner, wouldn't that eliminate the surprise? ...Wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?

Or, instead of telling him, I could bring him some food to school and treat this bookworm who only knows how to study...

Jiang Wanfeng is a person with strong execution skills. Whenever she acts alone,

"Ah, I need to wash his sheets first..."

"? How come the pillow is also..."

After a period of busy work, the new generation of water magic masters embarked on their journey to the school.

She was wondering what to say when she met Lin Mo later.

"Hey, you! You stayed up so late without even telling me. Tch... I guess I'll just have to reluctantly bring you dinner..."

No, no, although it sounds like something she would normally say, when I think about it from this God's-eye view, what am I usually saying?!

Then...

"Well, I just decided to cook some vegetables on a whim, but I cooked too much for myself. Mom has to work the night shift again tonight, and you didn't even send me a message, so I had to bring them over for you..."

still...

"I made this for you myself, eat it right now, don't be ungrateful!"

If you finish eating within ten minutes, I'll reluctantly give you a foot pat as a reward~

'...'

A multitude of thoughts drifted through Jiang Wanfeng's mind, and before she knew it, she had arrived at the school gate.

The security guard was dozing off in the security room.

Jiang Wanfeng remembered that Lin Mo said the security guard was familiar with him...

"Sir, open the door, I need to go in and deliver food to someone!"

"..." The security guard was startled awake. Seeing it was the girl the playful boy had greeted, he let her through. He only remembered after Jiang Wanfeng had walked quite a distance...

Damn it, that guy left a long time ago, didn't he? And he left with one woman on each arm!

Jiang Wanfeng was completely unaware; the closer she got to the teaching building, the more excited she became.

This is the first time I've ever brought him food. What if other classmates see me? There shouldn't be any other students left in the honors class, right?

Oh, and maybe Ya Jie too... It's alright with her. Let's share some with her after Lin Mo takes his first bite. I don't know if there's enough food...

She had already thought of her opening remarks; she decided to show Lin Mo her transformation, to prove that Jiang Wanfeng wasn't just a woman who could only count to three.

She can be very gentle too.

Upon arriving at the floor where the classroom was located, it was completely dark.

Jiang Wanfeng's first thought was that Lin Mo might have heard her voice? After all, her voice had been a bit loud in the hallway just now...

Did they deliberately hide it?

Hum hum...

I can smell you! There's nowhere to hide!

Very reserved, she quickened her pace and groped her way into Lin Mo's classroom in the dark... Turn on the lights!

She wanted to be direct for once, to try, to muster the courage, to tell him frankly what she had prepared for him, what she wanted to share, without being so hesitant... to open her smile...

"Lin Mo, I brought you a meal I cooked myself!"

She turned on the light, and everything was brightly lit; the darkness was gone.

But the words she had just mustered the courage to utter, words she thought were straightforward and gentle enough, she swallowed back, until her courage slowly waned and her heart absorbed the darkness of the outside world.

"Oh......"

The moment the light was turned on, she opened the lunchbox, hoping that Lin Mo could smell the aroma from afar.

But now, the hot, smoky smoke from the chili oil was choking her, making her eyes sting and her throat feel dry.

Where did Lin Mo go?

He lied to her.

If you deceive someone once, you'll do it again and again. Eventually, all the trust you had before will become unreliable. Was he lying to her when he said he was studying?

Did Yu'en lie to her? Yu'en said Lin Mo often stayed at school... She probably didn't lie to her before, so was this an accident?

He hasn't sent any messages. Has something happened to him?

Did he go picking up trash again? What if he got beaten up, or...did I upset him?

Before her eyes could be stung by the spiciness, Jiang Wanfeng closed the lunchbox, pursed her lips, lowered her head, silently turned off the light, and left this place that had filled her with anticipation.

She was stubborn, but also strong. If she cried like this, she wouldn't be Jiang Wanfeng.

But does Lin Mo prefer delicate girls? Does he want her to cry?

He's so mean, because this courage she mustered up for so long...

"Dingle bell bell~"

The phone rang suddenly, and Jiang Wanfeng's downcast eyes lifted with a flicker of excitement. Could it be that Lin Mo had just gone home and missed her, and was now calling out of worry because he couldn't find her?

The girl opened her phone.

[Fox Enen invites you to a voice call]

"whispering sound..."

When Jiang Wanfeng saw that it was her best friend calling, her face immediately fell.

"Hey..."

"Hey? Wanfeng, I saw Lin Mo at the Shi'an Library. I asked him, and it seems there weren't many people staying on campus today because it was too dark, so he went to the library..."

What a coincidence! How come Hu Yu'en called to explain right after she came looking for Lin Mo but couldn't find him?

But it can only be a coincidence.

Thinking of this, the girl breathed a slight sigh of relief. Well, it's okay, it's just that she suddenly lost her courage and had to put on that fierce but useless Jiang Wanfeng act again...

"Yu'en, what brings you out today? And why are you calling me?"

"..." There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by the fox's signature laugh, "Haha, it's my mom's birthday today, so I got a little day off. I just happened to pass by the library and saw Lin Mo go in~"

"Really?... Then happy birthday to your mother."

"Thanks! Do you want me to go keep an eye on Lin Mo for you again? I'm still around here."

"No need, no need, I'll go home and wait for him."

"Hey? Wanfeng, aren't you home right now?"

"Um... I came out for a stroll." Jiang Wanfeng didn't really want to say that she was bringing food to Lin Mo, but she found an excuse to do so; it would sound too embarrassing.

"Oh...haha, then Feng, have a good time tonight...Lin Mo seems to be studying really hard, he probably won't be back so soon~"

"Good~"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Wanfeng felt much better.

It's really okay. You can't blame him; blame her for insisting on this surprise without even telling him.

They just brought this trouble upon themselves. They made a wasted trip. They're so arrogant and sullen, I hate them so much!

She could openly think of him, but she couldn't openly go to him; today's challenge had failed.

There are still many challenges, such as openly liking him and openly possessing him, all of which are carefully written in her little notebook with the neatest handwriting.

...

On the other end of the phone, Hu Yu'en, who had just returned home and was enjoying a rare moment of leisure, looked at the message Lin Mo had sent her.

He asked her for a favor: to make up a lie that he wasn't at school.

Judging from Wanfeng's tone, he probably went to the school but couldn't find anyone.

I can't quite describe how I feel. On the very first day I confessed my feelings, he already needed me. It's like I'm very valuable to him.

Although the method required was... a bit awkward, it was still the same as what she promised that afternoon.

Lin Mo said he didn't need it and didn't like it, but he still made her do this kind of thing...

Therefore, he actually paid close attention to Wan Feng's feelings and kept an eye on her, but he was also paying attention to other girls. Just as she guessed, Lin Mo was a womanizer.

What will he choose in the future? How long will he keep it a secret?

To be chosen... well, she needs to prove she's obedient, more honest than Wan Feng, more well-behaved than Ya Jie, and more elegant than Li Qingran...

"How heartless! After using me, you don't talk to me anymore."

The girl stared at her phone screen; the guy on the other end had sent a message but hadn't replied.

"Ding dong~"

"I'm back!"

"One of the two chocolate eggs I'm giving you is a collector's edition...it contains a plush toy..."

After reading the message, Hu Yu'en couldn't wait to open the two chocolate eggs.

"A plush toy!"

It's a little fox, no, two little foxes... how come they're both inside the eggs?!

At that moment, Lin Mo's message appeared on my phone again.

Actually, both are collector's editions, let's make a pair.

It's best to brush your teeth after eating chocolate, it's incredibly sweet.

Let's make a pair!

"Including me, that makes three!"

The girl held the plush toy in her arms, didn't even pick up a spoon, and took a big bite of the chocolate. This chocolate wasn't bitter at all, it was all sweet.

Even after brushing her teeth, she'll be overjoyed by the sweetness.

Chapter 69 Chatting with Four Girls at the Same Time

"Lin Mo, look at my tongue."

At the villa, Li Qingran finally got to eat a lollipop after dinner, as she didn't like chocolate.

In her eyes, the seven-yuan chocolate was not as good as the one-yuan lollipop that Lin Mo specially bought for her.

"What, the color?"

Li Qingran put the candy in her mouth until it melted, then asked him to check what color her tongue had turned.
