If accuracy and formula application could truly be improved simply by doing practice tests, then no one would need to study.
The credit should go to Xia Ze. Even if she had to do ten more days of practice tests, she still wouldn't have reached this level if he hadn't taught her today.
However, seeing Song Qian's happy expression, Qiao Yingzi didn't argue further.
"Are you hungry? I'll go make you some food." Song Qian put down the test paper, turned around, and opened the refrigerator.
She frowned when she saw that the leftover food from breakfast hadn't been touched at all.
Has this child not eaten all day? Or did she sneak out to eat junk food again?
"Why didn't you eat today?" Song Qian asked Qiao Yingzi with a worried expression as she carried the medicinal meal.
"I..." Qiao Yingzi was about to explain when Song Qian interrupted her: "Did you go out to eat junk food again?"
"Did I ever say that those things are unclean and eating too much will harm your health? You won't drink the medicinal food that Mom makes to nourish your body, but you're just harming your health by eating those things."
Qiao Yingzi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
here we go again…
The soup made from those Chinese herbs tasted awful, and I always had to force her to drink it.
Could it be that she, as a mother, really couldn't see that her child disliked the smell of Chinese medicine?
"Mom, you've misunderstood. Aunt Liu Mei made my lunch today because you weren't home."
Qiao Yingzi knew Song Qian's personality.
Arguing back at her directly will not get you anywhere and may even make her go on and on.
Therefore, it's best to interrupt Song Qian directly.
"Huh?" This trick really worked on Song Qian. After hearing that Liu Mei had cooked the meal, she didn't say anything more.
"Oh, is that so... then Mom misunderstood you. But Mom is only doing this for your own good. I'll go heat up this medicinal soup for you." Song Qian smiled awkwardly, turned around, and carried the medicinal soup into the kitchen.
Soon, a strong smell of Chinese medicine filled the room, making Qiao Yingzi feel nauseous.
She went to the balcony and took a breath of fresh air, which stopped her urge to vomit.

"Yingzi, come and have some soup."
Song Qian's voice came from the kitchen.
Qiao Yingzi sighed; she still couldn't escape the fate of drinking medicinal food.
When Qiao Yingzi returned to the living room, she was forcibly holding her breath because the entire living room smelled pungent from the heated medicinal food.
"Drink it while it's hot, otherwise the medicinal properties will be ruined if you reheat it after it cools down," Song Qian urged.
Qiao Yingzi held the bowl of medicinal food for a long time, reluctant to take a bite, as if the bowl contained poison instead of medicinal food.
Song Qian was getting anxious as she watched her daughter hesitate to drink the wine.
The experienced herbalist said that Chinese medicine should be drunk hot, otherwise its effects will be diminished.
"Yingzi, drink up! Mom also prepared some sea cucumber for you." Song Qian said, taking a bag of sea cucumber out of her bag.
Song Qian heard from a friend that eating a raw sea cucumber on an empty stomach every day can prevent illness and improve memory.
This disgusted Qiao Yingzi.
Putting aside the fact that raw sea cucumbers don't taste very good, I wouldn't even dare to eat them just by looking at them.
But Song Qian insisted that this way of eating had the highest nutritional value, and she forced her to eat it every day.
"Mom, can I not eat it?" Qiao Yingzi has expressed her unwillingness to eat raw sea cucumber more than once, and each time she has been told, "No."
Drinking medicinal cuisine and eating raw sea cucumber, Qiao Yingzi really wanted to cry, but Song Qian didn't care about any of that.
She even tried to persuade her, as if it were for her own good, saying, "Be good, Mom will make you something delicious later."
Hearing Song Qian's words, Qiao Yingzi sighed helplessly.
She looked at the prepared raw sea cucumber, forced herself to swallow it despite feeling nauseous, and then pinched her nose to force down the medicinal food.
The strong smell of Chinese medicine lingered in her throat, and combined with the raw sea cucumber, Qiao Yingzi felt nauseous.
But she had to suppress the urge to vomit because she didn't want to see Song Qian angry or upset.
It was precisely because Qiao Yingzi understood Song Qian's difficulties that she went along with her in everything.
For example, even if she doesn't like drinking medicinal cuisine or eating raw sea cucumber, she has to force herself to eat it and still have to act like she's doing well.
But Song Qian didn't know that Qiao Yingzi was forcing a smile.
"I'll go back to my room and rest for a while." Qiao Yingzi carried the hot water back to her room.
Qiao Yingzi walked to the private balcony in her room, leaned on the railing, looked at the night view of Kyoto, and breathed in the fresh air.
Just as she was starting to feel better, Song Qian's voice came from outside the door again: "Yingzi, rest for a while and then come out and do two more sets of test papers."
Song Qian's words made Qiao Yingzi feel even more disappointed.
Doing practice tests, doing practice tests…
All she does all day is do practice tests; she feels like she lives solely for doing practice tests.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Qiao Yingzi's eyes became a little moist.
Even the strongest heart can become fragile under immense pressure. She couldn't understand why Song Qian was always pushing her.
She forced her to do practice tests, forced her to drink medicinal diets and eat raw sea cucumbers, and even interfered with her hobbies.
"Did Aunt Song scold you again?" Xia Ze's voice came from the balcony downstairs.
The two houses are located on different floors, and their rooms are also connected.
Hearing Qiao Yingzi's voice from the balcony upstairs, Xia Ze knew without guessing what had happened.
"No."
"Really not, why are you crying?" Xia Ze was puzzled by Qiao Yingzi's stubbornness.
Why do girls often pretend to be tough?
Lin Miaomiao, Qiao Yingzi, and even Xiaoxue sometimes like to be stubborn. Why can't they just say what they're wronged about? Why keep it to themselves?
That will only make you feel more and more depressed.
"No, really, I'm just feeling a little down." Qiao Yingzi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and looked down, only to see Xia Ze also leaning against the railing.
"Yingzi, I think you should learn to vent your emotions sometimes, instead of keeping everything bottled up inside."
Xia Ze discovered early on that Qiao Yingzi's personality had flaws.
That means not saying anything about any grievances suffered and trying to adjust on your own, which is not a good thing.
"I want to vent my emotions to others, but no one listens." Qiao Yingzi opened her heart without realizing it.
She has shut herself off ever since Qiao Weidong and Song Qian divorced.
In addition, Qiao Yingzi's only friend since childhood was Fang Yifan, and since he was a boy, she had no one to confide in.
"Treat me as someone you can confide in today. Tell me all your troubles."
"You said it yourself, no going back on your word, and you're not allowed to tell anyone else, understand?"
Qiao Yingzi originally wanted to refuse.
But I don't know what magic Xia Ze's words had, I just impulsively agreed.
Xia Ze smiled and nodded, promising not to tell anyone else.
Why do parents always try to impose on their children the things they themselves failed to do?
Qiao Yingzi never understood.
She really liked the astronomy department and wanted to apply to Nanjing University, but Song Qian always said that it was better to apply to Tsinghua or Peking University than Nanjing University.
Upon hearing this question, Xia Ze shared his understanding: "Because most parents have dreams they haven't been able to achieve, they want their children to fulfill those dreams for them."
"Of course, some parents want their children to attend the best schools so that they can have a better future."
“But Nanjing University is also a prestigious university, and its astronomy department is the best in the country.” Qiao Yingzi never thought that Nanjing University was inferior to Tsinghua and Peking University.
"Have you ever thought about how Nanjing University is in Nanjing and Tsinghua University is in Beijing? If you get into Nanjing University, you'll have to go to another province to study alone. Is Aunt Song Qian willing to let you leave?"
Xia Ze felt that this was the reason why Song Qian didn't want Qiao Yingzi to take the entrance exam for Nanjing University.
Having relied on each other for so many years, Song Qian had developed a terrifying desire for control.
She was reluctant to let her daughter leave her.
This answer left Qiao Yingzi speechless.
She never imagined that Song Qian forced her to take the entrance exams for Tsinghua and Peking Universities because 503 couldn't bear to see her leave.
Seeing that Qiao Yingzi remained silent for a long time, Xia Ze continued, "Actually, I think you need to talk to Aunt Song. Of course, you can't talk to her now; you have to find an opportunity."
Song Qian hasn't realized the immense pressure she's putting on Yingzi yet, so even if the two of them were to talk now, it would definitely be useless.
"Opportunity? Can you help me find an opportunity?" Qiao Yingzi didn't know when an opportunity would come, so she wanted to ask Xia Ze for help.
