On the other hand, Han Zixin was wrapping her dyed turn around his fingers. He didn’t know why he liked doing it so much. When everyone was checking out their results, he was playing with her hair.

“Are you done?” An Xiulan finally asked with a sigh.

“No, ” He replied. “Why does your hair smell so good?” He turned her to face him and said, noticing the change on her face, “Your face looks softer and smoother. Your eyes look big. Your new hair is making you a completely different person.”

“You know what? I love you the most in the world, ” An Xiulan hugged him tightly. “Only you can notice the difference on my face. Cheat prince, do I look pretty?”

Han Zixin quickly nodded his head. “You are the prettiest girl in the world. You are always beautiful but you look more beautiful today.”

An Xiulan wiped her nonexistent tears. She patted her shoulder and said, “I raised you well. Good boy. Hug Jiejie again.”

Han Zixin gave her a disgusted look. “Scram!”

“Little Zixin, don’t act like this, ” An Xiulan said as if she was his big sister.

He ran from there as fast as he could. He was not her younger brother like she loved to claim in front of everyone.

An Xiulan looked at him in bewilderment. “Huh, what’s wrong with little Zixin?” She shrugged when she saw the line of the students checking out their results had lessened and so she walked ahead holding her backpack and started looking for her roll number.

“Ah? Wasn’t my roll number supposed to be at the bottom?” An Xiulan asked herself. “Why is it Ji Mao’er? Is she competing with me for the last rank now? Since I’m a good human being, I will just let her have my permanent spot.”

Li Sicheng, who had just come to check his result, coughed. An Xiulan turned back and looked at Song Xueyun’s deskmate and waved at him.

“You are waving me at?” Li Sicheng asked, stunned.

An Xiulan blinked her eyes. “Umm yeah?”

Li Sicheng nervously laughed. “Well, I thought you hate me like your brother for insulting Gu Shangyan.”

“I heard that you apologised for it, ” An Xiulan said and he nodded his head. “Then, I have no reason to hate you. Classmate, are you my Yunyun’s boyfriend? I’m telling you that if you bully her I won’t forgive you.”

Li Sicheng blushed. “I’m not! We are normal friends. I don’t look at her in that way.”

“That’s great, ” An Xiulan patted his shoulder. “Classmate, Puppy love is harmful. We must focus on our studies and stay away from puppy love.”historical

Li Sicheng enthusiastically nodded his head. “Did you check your result?”

“I can’t find my roll number, ” An Xiulan replied with a sigh.

“Tell me your roll number and I will find it for you, ” Li Sicheng suggested.

An Xiulan told him her roll number.

“There you are, “Li Sicheng replied. ” 90 in English. 55 in Language. 58 in History. 50 in mathematics. 48 politics.”

An Xiulan placed her hand on her chest and muttered a curse. “I scored 60%? She looked at him in shock?”

“No, ” Li Sicheng replied. “It’s 59.2%. If it was 59.5 or more, we could estimate it as 60 but now we can’t. It’s just 59 in the roundabout.”

“Classmate, sue me but I’m going to call it 60%. Oh my God, I scored 60% marks for the first time in my life, ” An Xiulan jumped in excitement. “I’m the fifth last rank. Please check my deskmates too. Our roll no is the same, just his last digit is 2.”

“He scored 65℅, ” Li Sicheng quickly calculated the percentage and replied.

An Xiulan’s face fell and she turned angry, “Little Zixin is studying behind my back! I will see him in the class.”

The bell rang and the first period started. That day, An Xiulan was once again called to the teacher’s office. She was expecting to get praised but nothing like that happened. Instead, Teacher Sun handed her a thick bundle of books and asked her to prepare for it. It was only after two months did she understand that the teacher was strengthening her base as well as preparing her for the monthly exams.

Li Sicheng was once again the last person to check the result and An Xiulan was standing a little far from there. She ran to him when she saw him there.

“Hi, classmate, ” An Xiulan said with a smile.

“You are scaring me now, ” Li Sicheng said. “It’s been third time that I’m finding you here to check the result alone with me.”

“Classmate, you are my lucky charm. Since the time you began telling me my monthly test result, my marks have improved, “An Xiulan smiled at him.

“Oh yeah? But your rank is still where it was almost three months ago, “Li Sicheng commented.

“At least my percentage has increased, ” An Xiulan claimed. “Check out my result. Do you want me to tell you my roll number?”

“No, I recall it, ” Li Sicheng sighed. As he searched for her roll number, he raised his brow, “60 in politics. Not bad. 91 in English. 62 in mathematics. 69 in history. 55 in language. 67.4%. Not bad.”

“See I told you are my lucky charm, ” An Xiulan smiled like a fool. “Check out my best friend’s score.”

“72%, ” Li Sicheng replied and waited for her to match her class in rage just like last time. He couldn’t understand how her logic worked.

“Cheat prince! You said your exams didn’t go that well. How come you scored more marks than me again?” An Xiulan asked her arms on her waist.

Han Zixin sighed. It wasn’t his fault. He didn’t like to study but because of her, he had to sit in the library for hours to accompany her to self-study. He took similar online tuition classes with her because she wanted him to accompany her as she easily got distracted or worse bored.

Even if he wanted to play and rest, he was forced to study like a topper and then she had the audacity to ask him why his scores were improving!
