In the past, he might have joked that it was fake, but now he didn't want to say it that way.

"of course it's true!"

"Give me a semester, and I'll make you second in the whole school," Xia Ze said confidently, patting his chest.

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Qiao Yingzi looked at Xia Ze with a smile.

Although she spoke with a questioning tone, she truly believed in Xia Ze.

Firstly, they believed in Xia Ze's own abilities.

Secondly, there is unconditional trust in one's heart.

If she were to try and get second place in the entire elite high school on her own, it would be virtually impossible.

After all, there's no one else in the class but Xia Ze, that prodigy.

There is also Qian Sanyi, the top scorer in the high school entrance examination, who is far beyond the reach of others.

In the recent class mock exams, Qian Sanyi consistently ranked second in the class, while she sometimes even missed the top three.

There's no way around it, Xiaoxue and Shimiao are both very strong.

Therefore, if others heard Xia Ze's promise, they would basically think he was bragging.

But Qiao Yingzi believed in him and in herself.

With her hard work and Xia Ze's guidance, she refused to believe she couldn't catch up with Qian Sanyi!

"If you already have something in mind, why are you asking me?" Xia Ze asked with a smile.

Xia Ze could tell what Qiao Yingzi was thinking from her eyes.

This girl clearly believes him, but she insists on being stubborn.

"I won't tell you." Qiao Yingzi stuck out her tongue, smiled adorably, and turned to run away.

But Xia Ze grabbed her hand at that moment.

In the past, Xia Ze would never have done this, but today he just kept trying to tease her.

"Do you know that the way you're looking at me is really weird?" Xia Ze teased.

As Xia Ze held her hand, Qiao Yingzi couldn't help but feel shy.

She tried to break free, but she was too weak.

She could only lower her head shyly, not daring to look at Xia Ze, and stammered, "Yes, yes, is something wrong?"

Xia Ze smiled mischievously.

"how to say?"

"That look in your eyes is like seeing something you like and wanting to have it, or like seeing something you like to eat and getting hungry!"

Hear this.

Qiao Yingzi's mind went blank for a moment, and her heart was pounding.

This guy is way too blunt!

It makes her sound like a pervert!

She wouldn't do that; this guy must be making things up.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yingzi forced herself to remain calm and raised her head: "Don't talk nonsense. If anyone's craving something, it's you who's craving me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Yingzi realized that she had made a mistake.

That's too ambiguous.

Xia Ze was also taken aback for a moment.

However, upon seeing Qiao Yingzi's blushing ears, he felt quite pleased with himself: "I love how stubborn you are."

"Tch! Who told you to like it?" Qiao Yingzi said arrogantly, barely suppressing her embarrassment.

"Shh, Aunt Song is here."

Xia Ze wanted to say something more.

But then they spotted someone peeking out from the stairwell.

He took a closer look and realized it was Song Qian.

He was still worried about him and Yingzi, so he secretly started watching them.

"my mother?"

"Don't turn around, let's go home normally."

Qiao Yingzi instinctively wanted to turn around, but Xia Ze stopped her.

If she turns back, Song Qian will definitely realize that she has been exposed, and that will be very embarrassing.

"Okay, I'm going home now."

"Oh, right, don't forget we have PE class tomorrow. The teacher said we need to wear sneakers."

"Okay, bye-bye."

The two pretended nothing was wrong and said goodbye to each other.

Although Song Qian, who was peeking from the stairwell, couldn't hear what the two were saying, she quickly ran back upstairs when she saw Yingzi walking over.

Qiao Yingzi returned home.

Seeing Song Qian cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen, she pretended to be calm, but her eyes clearly showed guilt.

"Mom, did you go downstairs just now?"

Song Qian felt even more guilty after hearing Qiao Yingzi's question.

She had been waiting upstairs for a long time but Qiao Yingzi hadn't come back, so she subconsciously imagined the two of them being all lovey-dovey in the hallway.

That's why I couldn't resist going downstairs to peek at what the two of them were doing.

However, things didn't go as she expected.

Song Qian peeked for a while and realized that the two were just having a normal chat.

"No, I didn't." Of course, Song Qian couldn't admit that she had gone downstairs to peek.

"Then why did you change into your outdoor shoes?" Qiao Yingzi found it very amusing to look at the stubborn Song Qian.

Since my parents divorced.

She hadn't seen Song Qian like this in a long time.

Now, Song Qian feels more like a mother to her than a strict teacher.

"I was just about to go downstairs to buy soy sauce."

Song Qian looked at the shoes on her feet.

She was so afraid of being discovered that she forgot to change her shoes when she got home.

This almost got us discovered by Yingzi, but luckily she reacted quickly and her excuse was quite appropriate.

Yingzi would never doubt it.

Song Qian had no idea that Qiao Yingzi was trying hard to suppress her laughter.

Turns out, my panicked mom is so adorable.

…………

School started the next day.

Xia Ze walked to school with dark circles under his eyes.

Last night, he tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

0 ·····Requesting flowers··· ·····

When I close my eyes, I see Qiao Yingzi looking shy.

And because of what happened at her house yesterday, Xia Ze couldn't sleep at all.

This was something that Xiaoxue found very novel.

My older brother's sleep quality is absolutely top-notch, considering we have two brilliant and talented young men in our family, Liu Xing and Xiao Yu.

It usually starts howling like a ghost at night!

She has to wear earmuffs to fall asleep every time, but her older brother is completely unaffected.

"Brother, why are you having trouble sleeping?" Xiaoxue couldn't help but ask Xia Ze out of curiosity.

Xia Ze glanced at Qiao Yingzi, who was going to school with him, with a resentful expression.

It's all this woman's fault!
