Aren't you being a scoundrel

Su Yuyao hesitated, unwilling to leave.

Lin Yu saw right through her thoughts.

Lin Yu hadn't planned on letting her leave all by herself anyway.

Turning his head to look at Tang Manman beside him, Lin Yu spoke up:

By the way, Manman, the holidays are coming up soon. Shouldn't you be preparing for your exams?

Hearing this, Tang Manman's expression blanked for a moment.

It was indeed true.

The winter holidays were just around the corner.

The exams for various subjects at school were lined up one after another.

Coming to see Lin Yu this time, she had already skipped two minor quizzes.

Most of the remaining exams were quite important.

Actually, if Tang Manman could just be a bit more carefree, she wouldn't need to worry about exams at all.

What did it matter whether she attended this crappy school or not?

With a super-rich woman like Qing Mo around, all she had to do was put aside her pride, open her mouth, and ask. She could easily obtain a massive fortune that she might not otherwise earn in her entire lifetime.

But Tang Manman was unwilling to do so.

Not only that.

She also refused to accept any gifts or bank cards from Qing Mo.

That was just the kind of person she was. On the surface, she seemed gentle and timid, looking like someone who was easy to manipulate.

But in certain aspects, she was unreasonably stubborn, to the point where not even a team of oxen could drag her back.

She stubbornly refused to accept any favors from anyone other than Lin Yu.

In her heart, she was still holding onto that one idea!

To make big money and provide for Lin Yu!

Even though, given the current situation, it would never be her turn to provide for Lin Yu.

But what if?

What if one day all these bad women left Lin Yu?

If she was the only one left by his side, then it would be her time to take care of him...

...

Just thinking about it made her feel quite excited!

The little person in Tang Manman's heart excitedly clenched her fists.

Therefore, Tang Manman had been working hard for that day.

Working hard to build a small world of her own.

A little world where Lin Yu could nestle safely and comfortably!

Tang Manman fell silent. She didn't say she was leaving, but she also didn't stubbornly insist on staying.

Lin Yu didn't press her. Instead, he shifted his gaze to Xia Muzhu, who was sitting by his feet, and said:

Sister Zhuzi, Little Shan is going to have his exams soon too, right?

He's in his rebellious teenage years now and is very naughty.

You probably wouldn't feel at ease not being by his side to keep an eye on him...

...

...

Lin Yu's voice grew quieter and quieter, eventually swallowed completely by his guilty conscience.

Xia Muzhu sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Lin Yu with resentful eyes.

You guy, if you want to chase people away, just say it straight.

Why drag Xia Yueshan into this?

He's already a sophomore in high school, a big kid who can take care of himself. Could she, as his older sister, stay by his side and watch over him forever?

Xia Muzhu could see that Lin Yu wanted to shoo everyone away so he could have some time to himself.

So she nodded gently, raising no objections.

Giving her man plenty of face.

Xia Muzhu's side was settled too.

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He had just turned his head, his gaze not yet landing on his next target, when he heard Qing Mo's signature cool and clear voice ring out.

Yes.

I should get going too.

I have a meeting tonight.

Hearing Qing Mo's voice, Lin Yu felt deeply moved.

It had to be Qing Mo!

He didn't even have to open his mouth.

She was fully automatic!

Now that everyone was leaving, there would be no talk of favoring one over the other.

Perfectly fair!

Nobody had any objections, and they all stood up to leave.

Qing Mo was the first to stand up, making a move to leave.

But when everyone squeezed at the door, leaving one by one, she lined up last.

After the three of them left, she stopped in her tracks and quietly closed the door to the hospital room.

When did you wake up?

Qing Mo walked back to the bedside, poured a cup of water for Lin Yu, handed it to him, and asked with a soft smile.

Not long ago.

Lin Yu took the cup, took a sip, and said with a sense of relief, as if he had just escaped a disaster:

Only about ten minutes or so.

And then that nurse came in.

It was really scary.

Listening to him, the smile at the corners of Qing Mo's eyes deepened, but she didn't say anything.

I really have you to thank this time.

Holding the warm cup, Lin Yu mumbled:

Otherwise, I wouldn't have known what to do.

Sigh!

Before, I always thought about getting everyone together to get to know each other and become familiar.

Now it seems.

This matter might not be as easy to handle as I imagined.

It's actually not that bad.

Qing Mo said softly:

The resentment Tang Manman and Xia Muzhu had this time was actually largely because you got hurt.

The two of them were distressed for you.

Naturally, their resentment towards Xiao Yao, who had been by your side all along, grew a bit stronger.

The conflict between them isn't actually as sharp as you think.

Is that so?

Lin Yu looked at Qing Mo with a pleasantly surprised expression.

With a smile playing on her lips, Qing Mo nodded gently.

That's good then.

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

His whole body relaxed quite a bit.

Then I'll get going too?

I really do have quite an important meeting tonight.

Qing Mo stood up. She had gotten the answer she wanted, and after confirming that Lin Yu was truly fine, she had no intention of staying here any longer.

Alright.

Be careful on the road.

Hey.

Right.

As if suddenly remembering something, Lin Yu turned his face and said with a cheeky grin:

Seeing as you performed so well today.

I'll reward you by letting you kiss me.

Qing Mo looked at Lin Yu, who was beaming shamelessly, only lacking the word shameless written directly on his face. The smile on her face became as rich as spilled paint.

He was actually quite cute.

Qing Mo leaned down and gave Lin Yu a light peck on the cheek, then adjusted her position and gave him a quick peck on the lips as well.

Hey!

Lin Yu covered his lips with a look of astonishment and said to Qing Mo in feigned anger:

Why are you like this?

Who told you to kiss me on the mouth?

Aren't you just acting like a hooligan?

Qing Mo blinked, slipping into character incredibly smoothly. With an innocent look on her face, she asked:

Then how do you plan to punish me?

Let's talk about the punishment later.

Lin Yu waved his hand. Afraid that things might develop into something unsuitable for children, he yawned and said:

I'm a little tired.

I want to sleep a little longer.

Qing Mo nodded and left the hospital room with light footsteps.

Lin Yu lay on the pristine white hospital bed. The gentle smile in his eyes was like a drop of water splashing onto ice, quickly freezing and assimilating into the low temperature.

He looked up at the hospital ceiling.

His gaze was distant and cold.
