Happy Youngsters: Lin Miaomiao and Yingzi are vying to have babies!

Lin Miaomiao couldn't possibly use the excuse that they were all boys and didn't need dolls, could she?

Fang Yifan wore a knowing smile.

"I knew there was something fishy going on between them."

"They've been having an affair for a while now, so I just want to ask you two what's going on?" Jiang Tianhao asked curiously, leaning on the table.

Xia Ze smiled without saying a word, while Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes.

What are those scoundrels thinking?!

Lin Miaomiao gave this gift simply because Xia Ze helped her win Lin Miaomiao.

Fang Yifan and the others stirred things up for a while longer.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of the two of them, he returned to his seat out of boredom.

At this moment, Lin Miaomiao looked at Xia Ze, who was fiddling with the doll's ears, and asked, "Have you named it yet?"

"How is Lin Ergou?"

That's quite a statement, truly astonishing!

Lin Miaomiao never expected that Xia Ze would give the doll such a bizarre name.

The most crucial question is: why the surname Lin?

"I'm starting to regret giving you the doll. She'll definitely suffer if she stays with you." Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes.

"Really?" Xia Ze played with Lin Ergou's hand, then said in an affected tone, "Ergou, your mother said you'll suffer if you stay with Dad. Do you think you'll be happy with Dad?"

After saying that, Xia Ze added a different voiceover for Lin Ergou: "It's not painful, it's not painful, I like being with Daddy~ Daddy kisses~"

"Ugh... Xia Ze, are you trying to kill me?" Lin Miaomiao laughed at Xia Ze's tone.

This guy is even more childish than her.

Xia Ze's lips curled up, and his gaze became teasing: "Look, Mom is smiling."

"Get lost, who's its mother?" Lin Miaomiao felt a little shy, but also a little sweet and happy.

Just as the two were playing around, the school bell rang.

Pan Yuansheng, the school's director of studies, who is known throughout the school for his comical appearance, walked in carrying a thermos.

When he saw the doll on Xia Ze's table, he slipped and almost fell.

Wow... does this genius teenager who returned from abroad have such a wide range of interests?

Pan Yuansheng adjusted his glasses but didn't say much, because he thought about it carefully and realized that the doll might not necessarily belong to Xia Ze. It might have been given to him by some girl in love at school.

It's infuriating, really. These female students don't study properly; they're always thinking about dating.

Last week alone, he caught twenty or thirty female students peeping at Xia Ze through the classroom windows.

Soon, the morning classes ended.

At lunchtime in the cafeteria, Xia Ze was truly dumbfounded by the girl's thought process.

It's just a few dolls, why do we have to divide them into sisters?

After discussing among themselves, the girls decided that Lin Miaomiao's Lin Haohao would be the eldest sister, Xia Xue's Xia Keke would be the second, Shi Miao's Shi Aiai would be the third, and Qiao Yingzi's Qiao Yaya would be the fourth.

The combination of several dolls reads as "So cute!"

After thinking about it carefully, Xia Ze understood these names. Girls all like to have cute and adorable names, right?

If he were to pick them up, he would definitely choose Kurumi, Kirino, and Takanashi Rikka. See how easy it is to remember them?

Lunch break is over.

The afternoon classes were quite demanding, and Xia Xue, Qiao Yingzi, and the others were all diligently taking notes.

Even Lin Miaomiao started reading the book with unusual seriousness.

At the end of the last class, math teacher Li Meng announced something.

That means their class will officially start evening self-study sessions next week.

Upon hearing this news, the class erupted in groans, with many expressing their reluctance to attend evening self-study, but it was, after all, a school regulation.

Despite their protests, the students had no choice but to obediently go home and inform their parents.

After school.

Xia Ze walked in front, while Xia Xue and Qiao Yingzi, his two best friends, followed behind, whispering to each other.

Although Xia Ze couldn't hear what the two were saying, he knew from the way they kept glancing at him that it must be related to him.

Does your brother really have abs?

As they walked out of the school gate, Qiao Yingzi glanced at Xia Ze and asked Xia Xue a rather private question.

Xia Xue nodded affirmatively: "I'm not lying to you, my brother really does have eight-pack abs. I saw them the other day after he took a shower."

"I really can't tell. People online say that guys with eight-pack abs are muscular, but your brother doesn't look like it at all."

Qiao Yingzi recalled what the bloggers in the videos she watched online had said, and looked at Xia Ze in front of her incredulously.

She had always thought Xia Ze was just a bit better-proportioned, but she never expected him to be the type who was muscular when undressed but slim when dressed.

"How about it? Do you want to see it for yourself?" Xia Xue asked with a grin, pulling Qiao Yingzi's hand and running to Xia Ze's side.

"Wait!" Qiao Yingzi hurriedly grabbed Xia Xue. This best friend is really something, having a real brother is truly something else.

"I'm not a perverted woman. Besides, with so many people here, aren't you afraid of what people will say?"

"Tch, what were my brother and his friends saying? Besides, those girls would love for my brother to take off his shirt." Xia Xue rolled her eyes.

Since the start of the semester, she has seen countless girls lusting after Xia Ze's body, and the way they look at her brother makes her want to tear him apart.

"Giggle." Qiao Yingzi was amused by Xia Xue's words and giggled, but she didn't think it was an exaggeration.

Xia Ze has a lot of female fans at school. Every day when she goes to school, she sees female classmates secretly coming into the classroom and putting love letters in his desk.

However, Xia Ze seemed completely uninterested, and each time he made Fang Yifan, Jiang Tianhao, and the others go back.

However, to be fair, she felt that Xia Ze really respected girls. Fang Hou'er once asked him why he didn't just throw away the love letters.

Xia Ze's answer was too disrespectful to girls, so he asked Fang Yifan and the others to open it, pretend to have seen it, and then return it.

"Sigh, I really don't know who my future sister-in-law will be?" Xia Xue sighed. To be honest, she really didn't want to have a sister-in-law.

But she also knew that such a thing was impossible, and that Xia Ze would one day fall in love, get married, and have children.

However, if this sister-in-law is someone she knows and approves of, then there isn't much of a problem.

For example, if this person were Lin Miaomiao, Xia Xue would think it would be great, and of course, if it were Qiao Yingzi, it would also be very good.

Thinking of this, Xia Xue's eyes darted around and she looked at Qiao Yingzi: "Yingzi, look how handsome and considerate my brother is, why don't you be my sister-in-law!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yingzi was stunned, a barely perceptible sense of panic flashing through her mind.

"Xiaoxue, what nonsense are you talking about!"

“Your brother and I are good classmates and good friends. How could I be with your brother! Besides, you know the relationship between your brother and Miaomiao.”

"Who says good friends and classmates can't be boyfriend and girlfriend? Besides, my brother and Miaomiao aren't dating yet." Xia Xue squinted slightly, a smile on her lips.

In fact, Xia Xue was very happy to have either Lin Miaomiao or Qiao Yingzi as her sister-in-law.

I'd be even happier if they could both be my sister-in-law.

"No...I..." Qiao Yingzi was momentarily speechless; she really didn't know what reason to give for refusing Xia Xue's suggestion.

Xia Ze is indeed a very suitable boyfriend. He is handsome, has a good temper, and is very considerate. I do have feelings for him, but it's just that—feelings—not quite love yet.

Moreover, ever since Xia Xue asked me at home if I liked [Ze], I've been having all sorts of wild thoughts.

Looking at Qiao Yingzi's expression, Xia Xue guessed what she was thinking. It must be because of that netizen named "Ze".

"Yingzi, don't overthink it. You've never even seen what that online friend you're talking about looks like. What if he's a greasy-looking middle-aged man?"

Xia Xue is now focused on bringing Xia Ze and Qiao Yingzi together.

Therefore, he developed an inexplicable hostility towards Qiao Yingzi's online friend.

"Ah!"

"What's going on? Who's talking about me behind my back?"

Xia Ze, who was walking ahead, sneezed. He touched the back of his neck and looked back at Xia Xue.

For some reason, he had a feeling that the obedient Xia Xue had just cursed him in her heart.

"I don't think so, right? His voice is so nice, he doesn't sound like a man in his thirties or forties." Qiao Yingzi was a little skeptical of Xia Xue's words. In her mind, Ze had always been a warm and gentle young man.

"Yingzi, the world is a deep place. A lot of people online say that people with nice voices are not good-looking."

"No way?"

"Look at your brother's voice, it's really nice, and I think Ze's voice sounds a lot like your brother's."

Actually, from the first day of school, Qiao Yingzi felt that Xia Ze's voice sounded somewhat familiar.
