Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Luo Yanran's first reaction was definitely denial.

How could she admit that she was jealous?

But when she met Xie Xiao's eyes, for some reason, the rebuttal that had reached her lips just couldn't be spoken.

Behind her was the cafeteria, with students continuously walking out.

She shifted her gaze away somewhat flusteredly, "Let's go, don't stand here and block the way."

She ultimately did not deny what Xie Xiao had just said.

Xie Xiao laughed, "Little Luo, the teacher, is really too adorable."

He quickly followed her, still explaining, "Praising Liu Ou was just a courtesy, but praising Little Luo Teacher is genuinely heartfelt, not the same."

Luo Yanran, although aware that his voice was not loud, always felt as if people were looking at them.

So she quietly said, "I know."

Don't speak anymore.

Xie Xiao was not affected, her tacit approval made him very happy.

He felt that after this period of interaction, Luo Yanran had a high degree of acceptance towards him.

Whether it was just now in the cafeteria when she picked food for him or just now when she did not deny being jealous.

This was all significant progress!

Anyway, he was happy.

So Xie Xiao was a bit over the moon, and upon reaching downstairs, he even handed out his hand, "The stamp from Little Luo Teacher is still there, I just discovered last night it's waterproof."

Luo Yanran looked at the pink plaster that was out of place with him, feeling her stamping behavior yesterday was somewhat childish.

So she carefully peeled off the plaster, "It would be better not to wear it at all."

Xie Xiao watched her careful movements, his hand not retracting, "Blow on it again, without Little Luo Teacher's stamp, I feel a bit uneasy."

He said that more to tease her, not expecting her to actually blow on it.

But unexpectedly, Luo Yanran glanced at him, then really raised his finger to her mouth and gently blew on it.

This scene attracted quite a few looks from other students.

Xie Xiao was also a bit stunned.

In the past, Luo Yanran willingly blowing on it outside the school had already surprised him, not to mention she did not refuse him inside the school.

After his surprise, Xie Xiao revealed a smile, gently tousled her hair, "Alright, let's go up."

Luo Yanran felt the warmth of his palm as if through her hair it reached her heart, she softly hummed in agreement, and thought of something, "Only a few days left until the monthly test, do your best."

"I will, I still want a reward from Little Luo Teacher," Xie Xiao said with a smile.

Luo Yanran thought about the dance video she saw last night, her expression somewhat strange.

Glancing at Xie Xiao, she hesitated but still asked, "Do you like... dance videos?"

She really wanted to ask, do you like that kind of dance video?

But she was too embarrassed to ask.

Xie Xiao was still unaware of anything wrong, simply nodding, "Yeah, I'd like to see Little Luo Teacher dance for me."

Luo Yanran took a deep breath, "Okay then, focus on your studies first. We can talk after the exams. Go back now."

Unable to continue the conversation, she really wanted to ask Xie Xiao how someone with such clear and handsome features could like that kind of...

Actually, it's quite normal for a boy to like it...

But why could Xie Xiao talk about it so openly and boldly?

Luo Yanran was greatly shocked but to not affect his enthusiasm for studying, she said nothing.

So, with the wonderful reward of seeing Little Luo Teacher dance for him, Xie Xiao studied very diligently for the next few days.

Having motivation really makes a difference.

Even Lin Yu was somewhat shocked. now

He thought he was possessed.

The monthly exam was scheduled perfectly for Saturday, and Xie Xiao calculated the time so that right after the exam, he could join Lin Yu at the stall.

Lin Yu was touched that Xie Xiao was still committed to his live-streaming stall despite all his efforts.

Xie Xiao sent him a bill with a smile, "You owe this! Equipment money. Remember to pay it back when you make some."

Looking at the bill, Lin Yu felt relieved and muttered, "Real brothers settle accounts clearly, huh?"

"Exactly, the money was advanced by Doctor Yang and Teacher Xie. I don't have that much money!" Xie Xiao admitted frankly, "I didn't have much left before."

Though live-streaming only needed a smartphone, Xie Xiao wanted to do it better, more professionally, to prevent followers from catching up easily.

Xie Qingxiao knew what was happening with Lin Yu that same evening and discussed it with Yang Lan afterward.

He originally wanted to talk directly to Lin Yu but was concerned about the sensitive nature of young boys at his age, so he spoke to Xie Xiao first.

Xie Xiao simply decided to disclose their plan to earn money through live-streaming to both parents.

Both were a bit surprised as the trend of live-streaming wasn't very positive at that time.

However, they didn't interrupt Xie Xiao; he simply showed them the materials he had prepared for Lin Yu.

Xie Qingxiao and Yang Lan didn't comment at the time, only saying they'd see how it goes.

They also advised Xie Xiao to check if Lin Yu needed any help.

They indeed couldn't produce 200,000, but they were willing to help where they could.

Xie Xiao naturally agreed, and also reminded them to check the materials he had prepared, "Took me quite a while to find them."

If it were someone else, Xie Xiao might not agree with their "irresponsible" live streaming.

But it was different with Doctor Yang and Teacher Xie.

Up to a certain extent, Xie Xiao knew his parents well.

And indeed, the next day, Xie Qingxiao asked him, "What kind of help do you guys need? Money? Equipment?"

Xie Xiao looked at Lin Yu in front of him and said, "My dad, Old Xie, said to take it slowly, it's no shame to earn money with your own hard work."

Lin Yu's eyes reddened slightly, and he lowered his head and hummed, "It's no shame."

Lin Yu's entire impression of parents started from knowing Xie Xiao.

Both Xie Xiao and his family were very warm people.

So even when Xie Xiao went through his silly phases, he never thought about giving up on this brotherhood.

Thank goodness he's finally over Zhou Mianmian now…

But...

Lin Yu saw a note on Xie Xiao's desk that read, "Countdown to meeting Teacher Luo: 2 days"…

This brother is truly love-struck!

With anticipation, Xie Xiao finally reached the day of the monthly exam.

These past few days, apart from video calling Luo Yanran in the evenings to solve problems together, they hadn't met privately.

All to save time!

One more set of problems might just earn him Teacher Luo's reward sooner!

Xie Xiao thought about it and felt happy, full of confidence!

However, his expression twisted when he saw the exam paper.

Professor Lin put down his teacup unhurriedly and announced, "This monthly test is a joint exam with four schools. The questions are slightly tougher than usual, and the rankings will include all four schools. Just do your best! Okay, no more discussion! Focus on your exams!"

Xie Xiao held his breath, torn between rising and faltering, nearly passing out.

Damn! What is this bullshit!

Is it really that hard to get a reward? Huh?
