“Just you wait!” Jiang Yan knew that Fang Yao was famous for doing things without regard for the consequences. He would definitely not get any benefits in front of Fang Yao, so he pulled Yuan Wei and left the canteen in a sorry state, ignoring the gazes of the surrounding students.

“Are you alright? Did that bastard hurt you?” Fang Yao pulled Yuan Xiao’s arm and examined it carefully.

If he had not heard from his classmates on the way that Jiang Yan was looking for trouble with Yuan Xiao, he would not have rushed over in time. Thinking that if he had not come over, Yuan Xiao would have been bullied, Fang Yao’s tone was filled with lingering fear and blame. “Can’t you give me a call! With me in school, how can you be bullied? How can my valued … friend be bullied by others!”

Fang Yao’s tone was a little unnatural. He did not know why he was so angry when he saw Yuan Xiao being targeted.

“Alright, it’s good enough that I don’t bully others. I’ll be careful in the future.” Yuan Xiao looked at Fang Yao gratefully. Compared to in her previous life, Fang Yao was much cuter in this life.

“You guys go back to the classroom building first. Class is starting soon. I’ll clean up my plate and buy something before going back.” Li Chang looked at the atmosphere between the two of them and secretly winked at Yuan Xiao before walking away.

“Then let’s go back.” Fang Yao let go of Yuan Xiao’s arm and rubbed his hands unnaturally. He had fought so many times, but he had never been so nervous.

The two of them walked back. Although they did not speak, the atmosphere was very harmonious. Many students sized up Yuan Xiao and Fang Yao curiously and kept whispering.

“It’s really stressful to walk with you. People will always look at you.” Yuan Xiao felt a lot of gazes and felt a little uncomfortable.

“You think your looks are not good enough for mine?” Fang Yao stopped and turned around to look at Yuan Xiao.

Her clear eyes were slightly upturned, and there was a hint of seductiveness in them. Her full lips were as beautiful as cherries, and Fang Yao was a little absent-minded. In the next moment, he saw Yuan Xiao’s lips move slightly, and a familiar and lively voice sounded in his ear.

“Don’t be narcissistic. I just got first place in the school. Maybe everyone thinks you’re not worthy of me!”

“A top student and a school bully—a perfect match!”

Fang Yao naturally placed his hand on Yuan Xiao’s shoulder and noticed the students staring at them. His eyes suddenly turned cold.

Whether he and Yuan Xiao were worthy or not was up to him!

Yuan Xiao originally thought that Jiang Yan and Yuan Wei would continue to find trouble with her, but the two of them had become much more well-behaved recently. She did not know if it was because of Fang Yao’s intimidation or the impending mock exam.

After revising his homework, Yuan Xiao lay on the bed as a familiar electronic voice sounded in his mind.

[Host, the mission this time is to get first place in the mock exam! You will obtain outstanding artistic talent!]

“Artistic talent? What’s it for?”

[Detected that the Host’s learning ability has reached above average. Art talent can allow the Host to easily learn music, art, and dance!]

“Why do I have to learn these things? Can’t I just study hard?” Yuan Xiao had learned piano for a few days when she was young. Because she felt that it was too boring, she did not last long in it. Now, she could already recognize the five-line score.

[I’m an advanced technological system that focuses on the comprehensive development of the Host’s morals, intelligence, body, and beauty!]

[Host, you only need to complete the mock exam properly. I heard that the First Middle School’s mock exam rewards are very generous!]

“Little Seven, don’t worry. I’ll get the prize money… No, I’ll get first place!”

Compared to the first place, money was more important to Yuan Xiao. After all, Shen Hai and Feng Mei’s small restaurant was only slowly starting. Their family still needed a lot of money.

Feng Mei and Shen Hai would never discuss their financial difficulties with Yuan Xiao, but Yuan Xiao silently made up her mind that this bonus would definitely be hers to win!

As the exam was approaching, Lu Liu called Yuan Xiao to his office. Ever since the competition ended, Lu Liu would prepare some practice questions for Yuan Xiao from time to time.

“Yuan Xiao, the mock test is about to begin. How’s the preparation going?” Lu Liu looked at Yuan Xiao beside him, his eyes filled with love.

“It’s alright. There shouldn’t be any problems!” Yuan Xiao looked at Lu Liu, who was like an old father, and smiled at him.

“That’s good. However, you can’t relax either. After the mock exam, the provincial competition for mathematics will be held soon. I saw that Gu Chi and Jiang Yan have found a great teacher in the province to tutor them after class. You…” Lu Liu suddenly thought of Yuan Xiao’s current family conditions. He hesitated for a moment before continuing, “If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I will think of a way to help you solve them! ”
