Nothing. Drawing blank, Lin Xi made up something casually. I forgot to wash my hands earlier.

Truth was, she had never made a formal dinner like this before and everything was new to her. She had accidentally burned herself. Not knowing where there was a first-aid kit in this house, she had no choice but to apply some toothpaste for the time being.

Gu Shao didnt move. Looking at the house that had obviously been cleaned and the table full of food in front of him, Gu Shao was finally aware of a problem: These chores, including housework and cooking, should not be Lin Xis responsibilities.

You dont need to do these, said Gu Shao in a deep voice.

She was at the age to be taken care of.

Its nothing. They are all very easy tasks. They can cancel out part of my expenses.

Theres no need. Gu Shaos tone became more solemn.

But It didnt seem like there was anyone else other than her who would do that?

As though he had read Lin Xis mind, Gu Shao said, Ill arrange to have someone come over.

Have someone come take care of this child.

Hearing the decisiveness in his tone, Lin Xi nodded quietly.

Lets eat now, said Gu Shao.

Okay. Lin Xi smiled again. She scooped out rise for Gu Shao and pushed it in front of him.

Under Lin Xis eager look, Gu Shao placed a piece of vegetables into his mouth.

It tasted surprisingly normal.

Lin Xi let out a sigh of relief when the aunty with questionable decision choices was gone.

Lin Xi logged back online to check after Gu Shao had taken off.

Lin Xi received emails from four different training facilities in the last few days. Their main focuses laid with mathematics, physics, chemistry, and English.

All of them offered fairly competitive offers. If Lin Xi entered the competition representing the training facility, she would be able to keep the prize money and the training facility would pay her two times the amount of the prize money as a reward. If it was a competition that did not offer prize money, the training facility would still award her between 6,000 to 18,000 yuan depending on where she ranked.

If she could collect prize money, she could pay 3,000 yuan to Gu Shao for her living expenses and save up the remaining 3,000 yuan.

Unfortunately, there werent competitions of this type every month. Most of them were only hosted once a year. Not very many of them offered good payout.

Besides, Lin Xi looked at the list of competitions provided by the training facility, and the next mathematics competition coming up would be next month.

Lin Xi bit her fingers and felt regretful.

She exited out of her email inbox and logged onto an informational website.

There were a lot of information about new competitions on this site. In addition to the usual academic subjects, there were also information on innovative technology type competitions that were less academical and geared more toward working individuals.

Lin Xi scanned over each and every single one of them, not wanting to miss anything.

A red and bolded one was very difficult to overlook.

The First Tianchuang Innovative Technology Competition? Lin Xi looked at the name of the competition and the date behind it. She couldn't help but clicked into it.

This was a competition geared toward electronic technology research. It included environmental friendliness, medical, artificial intelligence, and future technology areas. Competitors could submit their projects on a new technology under one of the four areas and one winner would be chosen from each area for further development. Other teams would also receive their opportunities to market.

And each team would further receive a prize award of

A million yuan?!
