Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 37 I like truly innocent girls.

night.

Qin Zhao suddenly had a strong craving for something cold.

She got up and went to the refrigerator to get some ice water.

I heard some sparse noises coming from the stairs.

That was Qin Qiong's dressing room. When attending banquets or events, he would occasionally have a stylist come to his home to do his makeup and hair.

She has cosmetics and skincare products in her own room, so she rarely goes there.

What is Mom doing so late?
Qin Zhao approached and heard humming coming from the room, pleasant and leisurely, but it wasn't Qin Qiong's voice.

The refrigerator for cosmetics was open, and a pile of luxury brand skincare products were laid out on the table. Xia Zhirou was taking a selfie with a face mask costing nearly 10,000 yuan on her face, pouting.

"What are you doing here?"

A cool, clear voice rang out, startling Xia Zhirou, who was leisurely applying skincare products and taking photos indoors. She quickly hid her phone.

Seeing Qin Zhao's panic turn into fearlessness: "You want to scare people to death in the middle of the night?"

Qin Zhao's gaze swept over the laid-out skincare products one by one, finally settling on Xia Zhirou.

A jar of face cream costing tens of thousands of yuan had a hole cut in it, and she had just used it to apply to her legs.

Xia Zhirou felt guilty but didn't show it on her face: "We refined girls are all like this, we have to make ourselves clean and smell nice before we go to sleep."

"Brother, it's so late, why aren't you asleep yet? Do you want to stay up with me?" Xia Zhirou scooped up a spoonful of face cream with her manicured nails, walked over, and applied it to Qin Zhao's cheek. Remembering what she had learned in class, she slid her fingers down, her fingertips lingering on Qin Zhao's neck. Adam's apple... wait, where's the Adam's apple?

This guy doesn't even have an Adam's apple? And his skin is so smooth?

Xia Zhirou was in a daze when Qin Zhao grabbed her wrist and pressed her onto the table.

Qin Zhao isn't particularly tall among the boys, but he has a huge height advantage when compared to the girls.

She almost wanted to shield Xia Zhirou in her arms.

Xia Zhirou was stunned for two seconds while being restrained. She raised her other hand to draw circles on her chest, but Qin Zhao pressed her down onto the table in the same way.

She thought Qin Zhao was being flirted with, and looked at her with affectionate eyes, her voice becoming increasingly sweet: "What does brother want to do?"

Qin Zhao sniffed near her ear and lowered his voice: "It does smell quite nice."

She gave a nonchalant laugh, like a playboy: "Are you trying to seduce me?"

"What a pity." She glanced down at her with lowered eyelids, looking down at her with a hint of flirtation in her eyes. "You're not my type."

"Cousin," she emphasized, "I like those who are truly innocent."

"Our class beauty is much cuter than you."

"..."

After she finished speaking, she got up, blew a vulgar whistle, and left without looking back.

Xia Zhirou was so angry her face twisted in anger. She said, "Who's pretending to be innocent? She's the school beauty in her class, okay?!"
Qin Zhao walked away with great style, but his legs went weak after he came out, and he almost got discovered.

Xia Zhirou is really something, she even tried to touch him inappropriately.

I need to stay away from her from now on.

She paused, recalling the scene from just now. Wasn't Xia Zhirou's chest quite large? How come just now…

With a few days left before the holiday, Qin Zhao and Lin Shi still had to get up early to go to school.

Qin Zhao went to bed late yesterday and felt a little dizzy.

She ate her porridge listlessly, sitting opposite Xia Zhirou, her gaze inadvertently sweeping over Xia's chest again.

It's gotten bigger again?
Did she see things wrong yesterday? She bit her spoon, somewhat dazed.

"Zhao Zhao."

Qin Qiong called her, and she came back to her senses.

"Hurry up and drink your porridge."

She hummed.

Qin Qiong sighed inwardly, recalling the image of Qin Zhao staring at Xia Zhirou's chest and the card from yesterday. She hadn't usually thought much of it, but now she realized that her Zhao Zhao was a boy, a grown-up boy.

We'll have to have a good talk when Lin Zheng gets back.

As Lin Shi was picking up her schoolbag, her mother stopped her: "Zhao Zhao, are you adjusting well to school?"

"How would I know?" They're not even in the same class.

"Your school should pay more attention to her, and show more care and concern for Zhaozhao, okay?"

"Is she a three-year-old?" Lin Shi was speechless. "I'm not her mother."

Qin Qiong punched him: "I'm her mother, and I'm your mother too. If you argue with me again, I'll take away all your allowance."

"..."

Faced with the pressure of money, Lin Shi eventually gave in.

Maybach.

Lin Shi glanced at Qin Zhao and coughed lightly: "Are you adjusting well to school?"

Qin Zhao didn't think she and Lin Shi could have reached the point of caring for each other: "What's it to you?"

Lin Shi pressed his tongue against his cheek, facing the car window, and cursed. He really did listen to his mother, offering his warm face to someone who wouldn't listen.

Chengzi went abroad to study, and Qin Zhao, who was good at chatting with others, quickly became friends with Jiang Man.

Jiang Man shared the latest developments of her CP with her again. Judging from the leaked photos and their awkward reactions, they definitely kissed!
She was convinced of this and sent a DNA test request to her "male friend".

Qin Zhao didn't know how she could deduce so much from a spoiler so blurry that facial features were barely visible, but she still thoughtfully considered it for a moment: "Their atmosphere does seem a bit different."

"Right, right!" Jiang's face beamed with joy. There's nothing in the world more joyful than shipping a couple and finding a great partner!

Jiang Man smiled, looking at the handsome young man in front of her, whose beauty was magnified to the point of being indistinguishable from a male or female, and reached out to pinch her cheek: "Zhao Zhao, I feel like you're getting more and more beautiful."

She's not as skinny as before, and with her outdated hairstyle gone, she looks like she's been reborn.

"It seems to be higher than before," she commented.

Qin Zhao was embarrassed. She hadn't grown taller at all; she had worn height-increasing insoles, and with the thickness of the shoes themselves, she was about five or six centimeters taller.

At 1.78 meters tall, he's not considered short for a guy.

"Have you grown taller?" Jiang Man asked.

Qin Zhao replied vaguely, "Perhaps."

Lin Shi, watching this scene from outside the classroom, was both amused and annoyed. He looked at Shen Yanci and Chen Yu, whom he had pulled apart, and said, "My mom was worried she wouldn't be able to adapt. Don't you think that's unnecessary?"

"Normally, if I accidentally touch her, she'll dodge like I'm some kind of dirty thing. But now she lets me pinch her cheeks and smile at me, as obedient as a cat."

Chen Yu: "Are you jealous?"

"Jealous my foot! I don't even like her. I just don't like the look of her! Besides, I'm way more handsome than her!" Lin Shi picked up his phone, snapped a few pictures, and sent them to his mother.

How can this not count as completing the task?

Qin Zhao was very perceptive. He noticed the gaze and frowned slightly. He looked towards the door and met Shen Yanci's dark eyes.

She was stunned.

Why is Shen Yanci here?
Then she saw Lin Shi next to Shen Yanci.

She pressed her lips together and looked away.

"Damn! What kind of look is that?" Lin Shi was provoked by the look of disdain she gave him when he was about to come in and settle accounts with Qin Zhao when a force grabbed him by the back of his neck.

He gasped as he was being choked: "Shen Yanci, what are you doing?"

Jiang Man followed Qin Zhao's gaze and saw this scene!
What's it like when your favorite ship couple dances right in front of you?
She excitedly clenched her fists and covered her mouth with them, then nudged Qin Zhao with her elbow, her eyes gleaming with a mixture of excitement and barely contained excitement.

She said nothing, yet it was as if she had said everything.

"..."
