Rebirth begins with picking up a cold and aloof school beauty

The next day was Friday.

In early winter, the northern capital was gripped by a biting wind.

The wind blew against people's bodies, making them feel chilly.

When Chen Zhou left the hotel and went to Beidu University to familiarize himself with the examination venue, although it was already morning, the sky was overcast and he still felt very cold.

The temperature is estimated to be close to 0 degrees Celsius today, and there are even signs of snow.

"Luckily, I have the scarf that Xia Xiaomiao knitted for me."

"But in this cold weather, even wearing another sweater and thermal underwear isn't enough!"

"The coat isn't lined with fleece, so it's not warm enough."

"Looks like I still need to buy a down jacket. Uh, I should buy one for Xia Xiaomiao too."

As Chen Zhou walked along the road with his friends, he muttered to himself.

Seeing Chen Zhou looking thoughtful, Luo Jiyao couldn't help but ask him curiously.

"Boss, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about the national finals tomorrow?"

Jiang Yue chimed in, "Master, are you as nervous as we are?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou smiled calmly.

"It's alright, there's nothing to be nervous about, and nothing to think about."

"Play hard during big exams, play hard during small exams."

"I've always had a good mindset."

Chen Zhou looked completely calm and collected.

"Playing?"

Jiang Yue asked curiously, "Master, what do you mean by that?"

"Now that you've familiarized yourself with the exam venue today, aren't you planning to prepare for tomorrow's competition with us?"

Chen Zhou said, "No, I have something to do this afternoon."

Jiang Yue let out a shout of "Ah!"

Luo Jiyao asked suspiciously, "Something wrong? What could you possibly have to do this afternoon?"

Chen Zhou rubbed his nose and said, "Well, I won't tell you."

Luo Jiyao and Jiang Yue: …………

They both felt that Chen Zhou was mysterious.

At the same time, their female intuition told them that Chen Zhou was definitely up to something!

It's probably related to his girlfriend.

Could it be that Chen Zhou is planning to go on a date with his girlfriend this afternoon?

Holy crap!

Boss! Master! The official exam is tomorrow!

You actually have the mood to go on a date with your girlfriend today??

Are you kidding me?!

Things did indeed turn out exactly as Jiang Yue and Luo Jiyao had predicted.

In the morning, the group of five provincial team members, led by Professor Pei Zhu, familiarized themselves with the examination venue and learned about the procedures with contestants from other provinces.

Afterwards, we had lunch at the cafeteria of Beidu University.

Then, Chen Zhou really did run away alone.

His reasoning to Professor Pei Zhu was that he had a sure thing in this national final!

No more preparations needed!

Professor Pei Zhu was initially reluctant, but he couldn't stop Chen Zhou, who was "stubborn to go his own way."

After lunch, in the afternoon.

Luo Jiyao and the other three contestants gathered together to discuss tomorrow's competition.

Inadvertently, Luo Jiyao and Jiang Yue also brought up the matter of Chen Zhou acting alone.

They then shared their guesses.

Jiang Jiaqi said, "If that's the case, it's quite possible that Chen Zhou really did run away just to go on a date with his girlfriend?"

Li Ya chimed in from the side, "What else could he do?"

"But then again, if I had a girlfriend as amazing as him, I'd definitely neglect my duties as a king!"

Jiang Jiaqi nodded in agreement. "That makes sense!"

The next second, Jiang Jiaqi couldn't help but smile happily. He said excitedly, "If that's the case, I still have a chance to surpass Chen Zhou in tomorrow's national finals."

Luo Jiyao shook her head, and analyzed in a serious tone:

"My boss, although he didn't prepare well and may indeed be affected to some extent, even if he doesn't get first place in the country, he should still be able to surpass you."

Jiang Yue wholeheartedly agreed, "Yes! In our provincial team, my master's skill level is far ahead!"

Li Ya nodded in deep agreement.

Jiang Jiaqi was quite displeased. "Believe it or not, we'll see what you're made of tomorrow in the exam hall. The day after tomorrow, when the results come out, you'll know whether I'm any good or not."

Before this, Jiang Jiaqi was actually very wary of Chen Zhou.

He admitted from the bottom of his heart that he was not as good as Chen Zhou.

But after today's incident, Jiang Jiaqi suddenly realized that Chen Zhou's arrogance was bound to lead to his downfall.

We're here, swirling the sky, the earth, and the air!

How could I possibly lose to you?

You're the kind of guy who goes on a date with your girlfriend the day before your exam!

What can you use to beat us? What can you use to beat me?

The thought that he had a chance to surpass Chen Zhou and "avenge his previous defeat" made Jiang Jiaqi work even harder in his competition preparations this afternoon.

Xia Yu: "Chen Zhou, are you really okay? You have your exam tomorrow."

Chen Zhou: "Don't worry, why would I come out to play with you if I wasn't 100% sure?"

Xia Yu: "But I'm still worried. I'm worried it will affect you."

[Expression: Worried]

Chen Zhou: "What? Don't you believe in your boyfriend's abilities?"

"Or do you not trust your boyfriend as a person?"

Xia Yu: "No, I don't disbelieve it."

"Chen Zhou, I absolutely believe in you, I will always believe in you."

"I believe whatever you say."

"real."

Chen Zhou: "Haha, okay, I'll come find you after your study tour ends this afternoon."

Xia Yu: "Hehe, no need, Chen Zhou, I'll come find you."

Chen Zhou chatted with Xia Yu on QQ in the hotel and confirmed their date for this afternoon.

Xia Yu originally suggested that she come to see Chen Zhou, but Chen Zhou insisted that he come to see her.

Xia Xiaomiao readily agreed.

It was past 4 p.m.

Xia Xiaomiao and her group's study tour to Tsinghua and Peking Universities has come to an end today.

Chen Zhou also left his hotel and went to the hotel where Xia Xiaomiao and the others were staying.

Xia Xiaomiao hasn't come back yet.

Chen Zhou was waiting in the hotel lobby, wrapped in a dark blue scarf knitted by Xia Xiaomiao.

Wearing a thick, fleece-lined baseball cap, it's warm and cozy.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, Xia Yu and her group finally appeared at the hotel entrance.

Chen Zhou spotted Xia Xiaomiao at a glance; she was graceful and stunningly beautiful.

Even though she was still wearing the winter school uniform coat from Haitang Middle School, it couldn't hide her stunning beauty.

At the same time, he also felt the protection that Teacher Gao gave to Xia Xiaomiao.

As you walk from the hotel entrance into the hotel, there are so many boys, so many pairs of eyes, who would steal glances at Xia Yu every now and then, but not one of them dared to speak to Xia Xiaomiao.

Until Gao Qin suddenly said something to the teacher next to her, and then went to find the toilet.

She left.

The boys who had been eager to try finally mustered up their courage.

They've let go.

They all chimed in, urging one of the boys to go up and strike up a conversation.

Then, the boy indeed stepped forward and asked with concern, "Xia Yu, are you cold?"

"I bought you some hand warmers. You can stick them on your body and you won't feel cold."

Chen Zhou stood at a distance, not too far away, and heard these words clearly.

He was immediately displeased when he saw this.

Damn it, don't you know my Xia Xiaomiao has a boyfriend? You're such a sweetheart to your sister!

Lick the dog!

You want to poach my boyfriend, huh?

Alright, alright, now I absolutely have to step forward and assert my sovereignty!

Just as Chen Zhou was thinking this and preparing to walk over to assert his sovereignty,

Xia Yu frowned deeply and said earnestly, "Zhou Qihang, thank you for your kindness."

"but!"

"First, I don't need hand warmers."

"Secondly, I don't feel cold."

"Thirdly, I already have a boyfriend! I hope we can maintain a proper distance!"

"I don't want my boyfriend to misunderstand because of any guy, including you!"

The usually adorable and innocent Xia Xiaomiao suddenly exuded the same sense of authority that her mother and aunt possessed.

Especially when she got to the last two sentences, she seemed about to explode.

Upon hearing Xia Yu's words, Zhou Qihang and the other classmates around him were all instantly dumbfounded.

What? Xia Yu already has a boyfriend?

That can't be right, can it?

And wait a minute! Is Xia Yu, who is usually gentle and reserved, really this fierce?

Zhou Qihang and many other classmates were stunned for several seconds.

Chen Zhou smiled and was in a great mood.

I knew it; my Xia Xiaomiao is the best girlfriend in the world.

You're very clear-headed!

She can be just as steadfast as I am in resisting the temptations of the outside world.

Maintain a proper distance from those sycophants and members of the opposite sex.

At this moment, Zhou Qihang said in disbelief, "Xia Yu, you must be joking."

"I know your Haitang Middle School. Although the teaching staff and students are not good, your school is the strictest-managed high school in the entire Guangdu District."

"The saying 'There's no such thing as puppy love at Tangzhong High School' is well-known."

"Putting everything else aside, if you really had a boyfriend, that Mr. Gao wouldn't have let you off the hook."

Xia Yu said unhappily, "I'm not joking, I really do have a boyfriend."

"Besides, were you threatening me just now? I'm not afraid!" Xia Yu said seriously.

Zhou Qihang was embarrassed. "I didn't threaten you!" he quickly explained.

The students around me were all watching the show.

At this moment, Chen Zhou walked towards the crowd and called out "Xia Xiaomiao".

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Xia Yu's eyes lit up. She turned around and immediately saw her boyfriend, whom she had been longing for.

She happily took off running and headed straight for Chen Zhou's arms.

Chen Zhou took off his baseball cap and opened his arms, quickly pulling her into his embrace.

Chen Zhou gently patted her back, and Xia Yu happily called out, "Chen Zhou~"

I miss you so much.

"Xia Xiaomiao, I miss you too," Chen Zhou said affectionately.

Xia Yu looked up at her boyfriend's handsome face and giggled.

Seeing this, his classmates were all dumbfounded.

Even the teachers who had been indifferent to the situation were completely baffled!

Zhou Qihang broke down in his guard and asked, "What's going on?"

One classmate said, "Could it be that Xia Yu really has a boyfriend, and it's this guy in front of us?"

Others chimed in, "Putting everything else aside, her boyfriend is quite handsome!"

"Hiss...which celebrity does he look like again? Uncle Benshan? Uh, no, he looks like...Edison Chen!"

"Yes! He looks just like Edison Chen!"

"Zhou Qihang, you have no chance."

Zhou Qihang retorted, "So what if he's a bit more handsome than me? Besides being handsome, what else does he have that makes him worthy of Goddess Xia Yu?"

"Can he be as good as me? I came in second in the Guangdu District joint entrance exam!"

A classmate advised, "Even if you replace Xia Yu as the number one, Xia Yu will never fall in love with you."

"Their attitude has already been very clear, so give up."

Zhou Qihang:………

At this moment, Chen Zhou and Xia Yu had a brief, sweet chat.

Chen Zhou walked towards Zhou Qihang and his group of fellow students on the study tour.

Chen Zhou said, "Hello, my name is Chen Zhou, and I am Xia Yu's boyfriend."

He asserted his dominance in person, and Xia Yu, following her husband's lead, happily hummed in agreement.

Heavily weighty, and very proud of itself.

This was a stark contrast to her previous aloof and dignified demeanor.

The students were all envious, and some who also liked or had a crush on Xia Yu were practically grinding their teeth in frustration.

The biggest clown was none other than Zhou Qihang from Guangdu Middle School.

The person in question came to their door, leaving them extremely embarrassed.

Chen Zhou didn't argue with these people. Instead, he smiled and said, "I want to thank you all for taking care of my Xia Yu during your study tour."

Everyone knew Chen Zhou was just being polite, so they waved their hands repeatedly in response, "No, no."

"Of course, of course."

Chen Zhou smiled, exchanged a few polite words, and then left with Xia Yu.

Instead of going out, they returned to Xia Yu's hotel room.

As they walked, Chen Zhou asked with concern, "Xia Xiaomiao, are you cold?"

Xia Xiaomiao thought for a moment, "Hmm, Chen Zhou~, actually I'm a little cold."

Chen Zhou asked, "Do you need a hand warmer?"

Xia Yu said happily, "I have my own hand warmer now."

Chen Zhou asked curiously, "Where?"

Xia Yu chuckled, "Chen Zhou~, you're my hand warmer."

And so, Xia Yu linked arms with Chen Zhou and walked away intimately.

The students were stunned, and the teachers from other schools were dumbfounded.

However, since Chen Zhou and Xia Yu were not students of their own school, the teachers from other schools who were leading the group turned a blind eye to this.

By ensuring the personal safety of the students, they have fulfilled their responsibility.

At this moment, one of the female teachers said in confusion, "Wait a minute!"

"That male classmate just now, what was his name again? Chen Zhou?"

Another middle-aged male teacher pushed up his glasses, thought for a moment, and said, "Hmm... Hearing you say that, Chen Zhou? That name does sound familiar."

The female teacher exclaimed, "Oh! I remember now! It's the boy we met at Erhe Airport!"

The middle-aged male teacher suddenly realized, "Right! Teacher Gao even bragged about it to us back then!"

"He said Chen Zhou was his student, and he got a perfect score!"

"That's him!" the two teachers exclaimed in unison.

Hearing this discussion, the students all opened their mouths wide, as if they could fit a goose egg inside.

"Perfect score, first place? Chen Zhou? Chen Zhou from Haitang Middle School?"

"Chen Zhou, the one who got a perfect score in the national finals of the Informatics Olympiad?"

"Holy crap! No wonder we were able to run into him in Beidu, two thousand kilometers away!"

"So, he's here to participate in the national finals?"

"So, Xia Yu's study tour to Beidu wasn't for Tsinghua or Peking University themselves, but for her boyfriend?"

"hiss!!"

"I see!"

"So, Chen Zhou is not only handsome, but also academically gifted enough to be a perfect match for Goddess Xia Yu!"

"Isn't that right? A perfect score in the competition, first place nationwide, wouldn't that make Zhou Qihang look utterly pathetic?"

They were all students capable of getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities, and with a few words from each other, they quickly got closer to the truth.

This made Zhou Qihang, the sycophant from Guangdu Middle School, extremely unhappy.

From the bottom of his heart, his defenses were completely broken!
