Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei, let them live with regrets for the rest of their lives.

Lu Mingfei nodded in understanding.

So what if I'm called "senior brother"? What's wrong with being called "senior brother" by a cute girl?

"Let's get down to business. Xia Mi, as you know, I've hired a tutor, and your grades..." Lu Mingfei said.

"Ranked first in the grade, the results are verifiable."

Xia Mi took out a certificate from her backpack. The principal had written the words "Absolutely Strongest, First in Grade" in bold, flamboyant handwriting.

Lu Mingfei didn't think anyone would try to fool her with a forged certificate, but he still said, "I believe Xia Mi, you've already mastered the knowledge from the first year of high school, but I also need the knowledge from the second and third years..."

"I taught myself all the knowledge from three years of high school and did the past exam papers ten times. No one understands the college entrance examination better than me!" Xia Mi said with certainty.

Lu Mingfei saw a radiance of "confidence" in Xia Mi's beautiful, seemingly expressive eyes, and subconsciously affirmed that what she said was true—that she was a super academic achiever.

As the ancient Greek god of wisdom, Ms. Ye said that a mere college entrance exam question could not possibly stump her.

Lu Mingfei wanted to test Xia Mi, so he took out a science exam paper from his bag. It was a paper he had collected online and printed out, so the possibility of him memorizing the answers was very small.

"Is it okay if I only do the big questions in one hour?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Xia Mi shook her head.

"Not enough time?" Lu Mingfei frowned slightly.

"I only need ten minutes. Ten minutes isn't my limit for solving problems, it's the limit for my typing speed," Xia Mi said proudly, patting the tablet she carried with her.

It wasn't actually her hand speed that was at its limit; Xia Mi was worried that filling the entire exam paper with zero time would scare Lu Mingfei.

“Okay. Then you can give it a try.” Lu Mingfei readily handed the test paper and a ballpoint pen to Xia Mi.

Xia Mi picked up her pen, opened the test paper, and instead of doing the big questions first, she seemed to be planning to do the multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions all at once!

Lu Mingfei gasped, thinking to himself that this woman was terrifyingly powerful.

Xia Mi glanced at the paper and wrote down the answers. She quickly finished the fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice questions, then turned to the more difficult questions.

Six main questions and fifteen sub-questions.

Xia Mi picked up her pen and wrote furiously, without even needing to make a draft.

It took her eight minutes and fifteen seconds to finish writing on the entire paper.

"Please take a look." Xia Mi grinned and handed the paper to Lu Mingfei for review.

Lu Mingfei compared his answers with the ones he had prepared beforehand while observing Xia Mi's handwriting.

Although there are no full texts, the various Arabic numerals and mathematical formulas look elegant and graceful, almost as if they are about to take flight, yet they are still easy to understand at a glance.

Compared to Lu Mingfei's scrawled handwriting, this is so pleasing to the eye that it makes one want to drink a large cup of wine, and one that should be replaced with a larger cup.

"How is it?" Xia Mi asked, her tone completely devoid of tension.

“…” Lu Mingfei pondered for a moment and said, “Full marks.”

Xia Mi smiled, "Then, senior brother, I..."

"I'm sorry, Xia Mi, I don't think we're a good match."

"??"

“You’re a genius,” Lu Mingfei said seriously, looking at the somewhat bewildered Xia Mi. “You figured out the answer to the question at a glance. I don’t have your ability. I’d rather find someone who takes a more solid approach…”

"Wait!" Xia Mi raised her hand to stop Lu Mingfei from continuing. She said angrily, "Senior brother, stereotypes are unacceptable! Who says geniuses can't teach well?"

You can point to any broad question, and I will answer it in the most straightforward and concise way possible!

Lu Mingfei was taken aback. He pointed to the question with the most words.

Xia Mi then got up, moved a chair, and sat down next to Lu Mingfei, claiming that it would be more convenient to give lectures that way.

The girl was very close, and the boy could smell the scent of shampoo on her, mixed with a more natural body fragrance.

Despite the sweltering summer heat, it was refreshingly cool and fragrant.

Lu Mingfei wants to restore the dragon to its rightful place.

Ms. Ye had a knack for manipulating the young chef.

……

Chapter 12 Zhao Menghua's Ingenious Plan

Ten minutes later, Lu Mingfei had a look of sudden realization. After Xia Mi's explanation, he realized that the question was actually very simple!

When Lu Mingfei looked at Xia Mi again, the awkwardness of a naive young man looking at a pretty girl was gone, replaced by admiration for the academic genius.

"Xia Mi! Please, you must become my teacher! I will do anything!" Lu Mingfei was full of admiration.

"Can do everything? Haha, that's an exaggeration. Senior brother knows junior sister's abilities." Xia Mi showed off her fair and tender arms, without bulging biceps.

"Teacher Xia Mi, I..."

"Goo~"

Just then, the rumbling of his stomach interrupted Lu Mingfei's eagerness to learn. He looked at Xia Mi, who was looking at him with a slightly flushed face.

Lu Mingfei slapped his forehead. "It's my fault! I actually made Teacher Xia Mi teach on an empty stomach. In ancient times, apprenticeship required paying a formal fee. If Teacher Xia Mi doesn't mind, can I treat you to KFC?"

"I don't mind, I don't mind," Xia Mi waved her little hand and nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

She knew that eating a spicy chicken burger at KFC wouldn't add to her glory as a queen, but she was Xia Mi now.

Xia Mi is the sky, so what's wrong with Xia Mi wanting to eat KFC?

So, Lu Mingfei ordered a family bucket and two spicy chicken leg burger combos, which was naturally his treat.

The food was served quickly. Lu Mingfei cleared the table, Xia Mi moved her chair back, and picked up the giant hamburger, Dragon King Meat, with anticipation. The deliciousness of this product, made by human technology, made the girl squint her eyes slightly.

Lu Mingfei glanced at Xia Mi silently. He noticed that this girl was prettier than Chen Wenwen, smarter than Chen Wenwen, and easier to please than Chen Wenwen.

She acted like the happiest girl in the world just because she treated him to KFC.

It's like I ate plain water with cabbage and tofu for several meals before, haha.

As is customary when eating and sleeping, Lu Mingfei also ate his fries silently, while the store's TV broadcast the latest news.

On [date], a female student was murdered on her way home from get off work. Her abdomen was cut open, and her pancreas was missing.

Please remember not to go out at night, and if you must go out, please go in groups.

This is a very serious criminal case. A special task force has been established to crack down hard and bring this cannibal to justice!

Half an hour later, Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi, having finished their lunch, began discussing their salary and benefits.

Since it's impossible to bring Teacher Xia Mi home, the learning sessions will basically take place at KFC from now on. Lu Mingfei will pay for the refills of Coke and also provide a meal.

The hourly wage is 30 yuan, paid daily. Considering the cost of living and Xia Mi's status as a high school student, the salary is not bad.

Xia Mi felt she had made a profit.

Lu Mingfei felt that he had made a profit by being able to hire such a good teacher.

win~win~

Win-win.

At the same time, the tutor relationship makes it easier for Xia Mi to get close to Lu Mingfei and expose his true identity; it also allows Lu Mingfei to get close to Xia Mi and complete the system task.

Won again.

win~win~

Lu Mingfei guessed that Xia Mi's intelligence might be due to the dragon blood flowing in her veins, making her a hybrid like him.

"Once we've built a better relationship, I'll find an opportunity to lay my cards on the table," Lu Mingfei thought to himself.

The best time to do something is right now.

After finishing lunch, Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi continued their studies instead of leaving immediately.

Lu Mingfei's knowledge points +1 +1 +1...

On the other side, Zhao Menghua brought a few of his underlings to eat.

As soon as Zhao Menghua entered, he heard one of his underlings say, "Isn't that Lu Mingfei? Who's the girl next to him? She's so pretty, even prettier than Chen Wenwen and Su Xiaoqiang."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Menghua looked in the direction his younger brother pointed and indeed saw Lu Mingfei engrossed in his studies and a girl standing very close to him in a secluded corner.

Because Xia Mi's outfit was inspired by Chen Wenwen, Zhao Menghua initially mistook her for Chen Wenwen! His heart skipped a beat in shock, but he later realized the body shape didn't match, and it was a false alarm.

However, based solely on her profile, Zhao Menghua dared to make the same judgment as his younger brother: Chen Wenwen seems to have been exposed.

“This is… Xia Mi?” Zhao Menghua recognized the other person.

He once recruited the most beautiful girls from Shilan Middle School, and Xia Mi's beauty was like the moon in the sky, impossible to ignore.

Compared to Xia Mi, Chen Wenwen was slightly inferior, much like the difference between him and Chu Zihang. Chu Zihang had a slight advantage over him.

"Isn't Xia Mi pursuing Chu Zihang? How did she get involved with Lu Mingfei?" Zhao Menghua asked, full of doubt.

He couldn't understand how a loser could get so close to a girl he barely knew. They were practically touching shoulders.

Zhao Menghua had investigated Xia Mi and knew that she was a very opinionated and tactful girl, just like a mudfish in the river or a nimble dog in the mountains, completely impossible to catch.

After several unsuccessful attempts to strike up a conversation in private, Zhao Menghua resigned himself to giving up and instead turned his attention to Chen Wenwen.

“Boss, they seem to be studying together,” one of the underlings said.

"Nonsense, I'm not nearsighted, I can't tell they're doing a test paper." Zhao Menghua slapped his younger brother on the head and said irritably.

He stroked his chin, pondering, "Even if Xia Mi were to find a study partner, it wouldn't be Lu Mingfei. I remember Xia Mi's financial situation isn't very good. Could she be trying to earn some living expenses under the guise of tutoring?"

So, making a date with Xia Mi is that simple?

Why didn't I think of that back then?

Indeed, it's impossible for a person to think about things beyond their own understanding. Alas, I still suffer from the disadvantage of having excellent grades.

"Should we go over and say hello?" one of the underlings asked.

Zhao Menghua pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

He and Xia Mi weren't even that close, so why should he bother trying to win her over?

but……
