Chapter 277: The Eternal Problem: Homework

Si Ming took away the ingredients from the small kitchen and decided to let Ye Jiaojiao have a good rest for a few days without live streaming or cooking.

Seeing that Si Ming didn't want to negotiate, Ye Jiaojiao didn't say anything and followed him out of the base and went to Chunfeng Tower for dinner.

Chunfenglou has been doing a booming business since its opening. When Ye Jiaojiao and Si Ming arrived, it was already past lunchtime, and they got an empty private room without having to go through the back door.

With Ye Jiaojiao's current level of cultivation, she basically doesn't need to eat anymore. The main reason is that she really likes the feeling of satisfaction after eating and drinking to her heart's content. Plus, with Si Ming accompanying her, the meal is especially delicious.

After the meal, Si Ming did not rush back. For the first time, he took the initiative to offer to take Ye Jiaojiao for a stroll around the Capital Star.

Ye Jiaojiao paused in wiping the corner of her mouth, raised her eyes, looked at Si Ming's 360° face without any blind spots, and remembered what Charles had said at the beginning.

No matter who goes shopping with Si Ming, they will just be treated as a tourist attraction.

Not to mention strolling, I'm afraid the traffic will be so congested that I won't be able to leave.

After imagining that scene, Xianyu Jiao, who was almost used to staying at home, decisively rejected her Taoist partner's unreasonable request: "No, it's getting late, we should hurry back. Ye Xiao probably doesn't know I'm awake yet! He'll be worried if I don't show up!"

Si Ming: “???”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Jiaojiao walked out in a hurry, while Si Ming followed behind her sullenly, like a big dog that had been bullied by its owner.

When the two arrived at the base, Ye Xiao had just announced the end of get out of class and Si Ting was packing up to escape. Suddenly, they saw Ye Jiaojiao, who hadn't been seen for several days. "Sister-in-law, you finally showed up!"

Ye Jiaojiao didn't come to class these days. As a complete poor student, Si Ting became the focus of Ye Xiao and Si Yuan. Not only was she not allowed to be absent-minded in class, but she also had to do a lot of homework after class.

After a few days, Si Ting lost five kilograms!

I feel like I have been elevated!

The kind of sublimation where my eyes go dark and my heart aches

"Woo~~~Sister-in-law~~~You have no idea how hard I've been going these past few days~~~Ye Xiao is a devil~~~" Throwing her schoolbag away, Si Ting pouted and threw herself onto Ye Jiaojiao.

Ye Jiaojiao was startled, and quickly caught Si Ting. After a moment's pause, she jokingly said, "Devil? Isn't that an exaggeration?" Her stinky little brother was just a little arrogant and a little cunning.

"It's not an exaggeration! Not an exaggeration at all! If you don't believe me, ask Si Yuan!" In order to make Ye Jiaojiao believe herself, Si Ting turned around and hugged Si Yuan.

Being squeezed between two girls, who were both sweet and soft, Si Yuan had a tense face and slightly red cheeks, but he just didn't say a word.

Si Ming rarely showed any kindness and rescued his younger brother.

Putting Si Yuan on the ground, and then taking his little wife back from Si Ting's arms, Si Ming lightly reminded her, "Have you done your homework?"

"Wow. Not yet." Hearing the word 'homework', Si Ting immediately shook her shoulders and looked in Ye Xiao's direction with her little eyes.

It was as if the words "You are a devil" were written on his face.

Seeing this, Ye Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows and winked at her stinky brother with interest, signaling: Look at what you've tortured me into? ! !

Ye Xiao looked back: It’s all your fault that your sister-in-law has such poor psychological quality.

After watching the kids struggling for a while, Si Ming called Ning Yuan over and asked him to send Si Ting and Si Yuan back to the Si family.

Si Ting originally wanted to stay and have a late-night chat with Ye Jiaojiao to exchange feelings, but in the end, Si Yuan saw his eldest brother's gloomy face and quickly dragged her out: "Second sister, we should go back."

If you don't leave now, Brother Ye Xiao won't be the only one bullying you.

I’m worried that you, my second sister, cannot bear the teachings from your eldest brother.

After Si Ting and Si Yuan left, Ye Xiao was about to go train with Elena. Before leaving, he reminded Ye Jiaojiao, "By the way, Alice and the others want to talk to you. Remember to message them back."

"Okay." Ye Jiaojiao nodded in response.

-

The Mecha League is coming to an end, with only the top five remaining in the competition, which also marks the end of this year's summer vacation.

Back in the room, Ye Jiaojiao logged into the second world.

Alice, Victor and others were in the box. As soon as Ye Jiaojiao stepped into the box, she heard Alice say, "Jiaojiao, Victor and I will be coming to the Capital Star soon!"

"How are your results in the mecha league?" Ye Jiaojiao asked after sitting down, and Alice and others then talked about their results.

Except for Ye Jiaojiao who did not participate in the competition, their group ranked highest in terms of combat performance. Susan's record was relatively low, while Alice and others' records were comparable.

The Mecha League is about to end, and the major colleges in the empire have already opened registration points both online and offline.

Alice asked Ye Jiaojiao to come because she wanted to talk to everyone about what would happen next.

Adolf's brother was studying at the First Military Academy. Everyone knew from the beginning that he would apply for the First Military Academy, but Zhan surprised everyone. His parents made a temporary decision to let him apply for the Second Military Academy.

"Zhan, do you want to go on your own? Or why don't you persuade your uncle and aunt again?" Alice, Victor, and Zhan are the three of them who have the closest relationship. Alice knew that Zhan wanted to study at the Imperial College before, and she was worried that Zhan was forcing himself.

After the Mecha League started, everyone was busy with their own things. Ye Jiaojiao hadn't contacted Alice and the others for a while. Now, when she heard the news, a hint of worry appeared in her eyes.

Young people's concern is simple and sincere.

Receiving the concern from his friends, Zhan Ye, who usually had a cold face and was obsessed with fighting, softened his tone. "The Second Military Academy is also doing well. You don't have to worry about me."

During the summer vacation, everyone had their own plans. Compared with the dinner after the previous graduation assessment, today's dinner was more like a graduation dinner. There was an inexplicable feeling that they would go their separate ways after today.

Without the liveliness of previous gatherings, everyone was very quiet during today's meal. Even Alice didn't smile much. As time was getting later and everyone was about to log off, Ye Jiaojiao noticed that Susan kept looking at her.

Susan's eyes were obscure, and she obviously wanted to avoid Alice and the others and talk to her alone, so Ye Jiaojiao asked Alice and the others to log off first. She pretended to go to the kitchen to take a look, and finally waited for Susan at the corner.

"Jiaojiao." Susan came over in the direction Ye Jiaojiao left. After seeing Ye Jiaojiao, she called out and then lowered her head without saying anything.

Susan was Ye Jiaojiao's first friend after she came to the interstellar space. If the alimony given by Si Ming at that time was equivalent to providing financial assistance to Ye Jiaojiao, then Susan's existence was equivalent to Ye Jiaojiao's guide.

Guided her to find Ye Xiao and not miss the graduation assessment.

Ye Jiaojiao has both sincerity and a sense of responsibility towards Susan, and she really wants to do something to help Susan.

"Susan, do you have something to say to me?" Ye Jiaojiao reached out and held Susan's hand, with a soothing look on her face.

During this period of time, Susan was aware that her little sisters were becoming more and more reliable.

Now, with her little sister holding her hand, Susan took a deep breath and tried to calm down: "Jiaojiao, my parents want me to apply to Imperial College, but I know my chances of getting in are slim."
