Xu Mo smiled, looking at Yang Jingxuan.
And then?
But then, there was no follow-up.
Yang Jingxuan's beautiful eyes, which had started with anticipation, gradually turned into a mixture of shame and confusion. Then, she detected a faint hint of mockery in Xu Mo's eyes.
Enough is enough!
No need to hold back!
Yang Jingxuan's cheeks puffed up, like a goldfish in a tank, as she glared menacingly at Xu Mo. Suddenly, she raised her delicate and adorable foot and gave Xu Mo's shin a light kick.
"You bad guy!"
"Haha..."
Xu Mo couldn't help but laugh out loud, despite himself.
Yang Jingxuan became even more embarrassed and angry, "What are you laughing at?"
It’s worth mentioning.
Yang Jingxuan's current appearance was rather comical and cute.
Can you imagine a mature female superstar showing such charming aspects? She truly has the charm of both cuteness and a mature, elegant demeanor!
"Nothing, let's go."
Xu Mo composed himself and walked ahead.
"Hey, you bad guy, you haven't answered my previous question yet! Wait for me, Xu Mo!"
Yang Jingxuan scurried behind him, chasing after him.
When it comes to the topic of love.
Over the past few years, Xu Mo hasn't given it much thought.
As his intelligence continued to rise.
His emotional intelligence rose along with it!
With Xu Mo's current intelligence and emotional intelligence, if he wanted to become a super playboy, it would be a piece of cake. Or even consider living off women.
He had the capital and ability to do so.
But people.
Are strange.
The smarter one is, whether male or female.
They tend to weigh the pros and cons in matters of emotion and life.
Some actions are instinctive and require no thought.
Others, even if you want to think, your brain keeps prompting you to weigh the advantages and disadvantages.
Unfortunately.
Most of Xu Mo's thoughts nowadays revolve around these considerations.
Weighing the pros and cons.
Of course, coming to teach was a matter of instinct and personal will.
Xu Mo never pondered the pros and cons; if he did, he would have simply donated part of his assets to education, which would be more time-efficient and convenient!
But he couldn't oversee everything personally.
Xu Mo didn't know who the funds would end up with, how much would be delivered, and various other factors.
Moreover, the professional teams and experts hired.
With Xu Mo's current level, he could completely surpass all the world's top expert teams.
He could confidently say he was second to none.
Some things simply must be done.
No weighing of pros and cons!
Similarly.
Xu Mo didn't want to sully the concept of love; he had long since transcended the most basic desires.
He couldn't claim to be a saint without any needs in that regard.
But one thing at a time!
Ultimately, Xu Mo simply didn't want to act against his own heart.
As they walked, they arrived at People's Park.
By a pavilion.
The trees were lush, birds chirped, and flowers bloomed. The surroundings resounded with the laughter of children, the playful voices of couples, and the conversations of the elderly.
Everything was so beautiful, full of vitality.
"We've known each other for quite some time now, haven't we?"
Xu Mo gazed at the azure sky.
Yang Jingxuan's thoughts drifted, lost in memories. "Yes, it has been quite a while. We've been through a lot, many thrilling escapes, and helped the police solve numerous cases."
Xu Mo nodded slightly, "Ahem... I was going to tell you the truth... why are you sitting so straight?"
Yang Jingxuan stiffened, suddenly becoming uneasy, her hands fidgeting, not knowing where to place them.
Xu Mo gave a wry smile and gently guided her, patting her flawless back.
"Come on, you're an adult, why so nervous? You just said we've been through a lot together, it’s not like we’re meeting for the first time."
"It’s your fault, humph."
"My fault? Fine, fine, whatever you say."
"Xu Mo, you're so insincere! You used to at least pretend to be clueless."
Some confusion is rare in life.
Xu Mo chuckled.
With Xu Mo's casual diversion.
Yang Jingxuan felt much better, her tension easing.
"I want to live a more peaceful life now, teach a little, go home, tend to my flowers. As for what comes after teaching... that's a matter for the future. If you can accept that kind of life..."
"I accept!"
Yang Jingxuan replied without hesitation!
Her expression was utterly resolute!
Xu Mo chuckled, "Wait, let me finish..."
This time, Yang Jingxuan was much more obedient.
But her beautiful almond eyes remained firmly fixed on Xu Mo.
"Ahem... I mentioned earlier that I want a quieter life now, right? Can you give up your celebrity status for me?"
"Are you asking me to resign?"
Yang Jingxuan asked.
Xu Mo nodded, "You could say that, since your identity doesn't align with my current life plan."
Yang Jingxuan thought for a moment, and within five seconds, she agreed, "Okay, I’m willing!"
She had risen to fame thanks to Xu Mo and later became a true superstar.
If it weren't for a very influential backer, it would have been like a pipe dream to become a top-tier celebrity based solely on her looks and acting skills.
There were countless beautiful and talented actresses out there, plenty to choose from.
And every year, there were fresh young talents, with new faces every year.
However.
Yang Jingxuan never forgot her roots, how she became famous, and who she owed it to.
Moreover, the two of them had been through so much.
Yang Jingxuan had long since fallen for Xu Mo, the kind of love that wanted to marry and have children.
Not just limited to dating!
Xu Mo smiled and said, "Are you sure?"
"Enough, Xu Mo, why do you sound more like a nagging woman than I do?"
"Well, what if we try it?"
"Trying means I’m not a child anymore?"
Yang Jingxuan blinked her big eyes, her voice so sweet it made one's bones weak.
Even Xu Mo felt a stir in his heart, a long-lost sensation of being alive!
At that moment!
Xu Mo felt he was truly alive again!
"Then let’s try it!"
"Alright! Let’s try!"
Yang Jingxuan smiled radiantly, her voice melodious and decisive!

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
