"How come you've changed so much in just one month?"

Not only have I gotten darker, but I've also gained weight!

Standing next to Ji Siyuan, who was as white as a beam of light and had long arms and legs, her dark skin was particularly noticeable, and her arms and legs were also short and thick.

Chi Chan stood with her arms crossed, her fingers touching her chubby arms, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

Ji Siyuan, at least out of consideration for his classmates, couldn't say it directly, but Teacher Wang didn't have that concern.

"Chi Chan, did you spend your summer vacation playing outside every day?"

Now it's as black as a lump of coal! And it's the fattest one in the pile of coals!

Even someone as thick-skinned as Chi Chan blushed with embarrassment upon hearing Teacher Wang speak of her like that to Ji Siyuan the moment he appeared.

But because of her dark skin, it's not noticeable.

Chi Chan felt her face burning for a long time.

After the initial excitement subsided, Chi Chan listened to Teacher Wang's introduction of their team's general situation.

Of the eight people, half were students from the No. 1 Middle School of the city.

The other two are from other high schools in Xingcheng City, and the other two are from cities under Xingcheng City.

Biology truly lives up to its reputation as the humanities of the sciences; five out of these eight people are girls.

Two boys and two girls from the No. 1 Middle School of the city.

Apart from Chi Chan and another girl from the No. 1 Middle School, the other three girls were all stunned by Ji Siyuan's 'beauty' the moment they saw him.

Although they quickly concealed their actions and expressions, Chi Chan still caught a glimpse of their fleeting amazement.

Subsequently, throughout the competition, Ji Siyuan became the most sought-after member of the team. His outstanding appearance and first-place finish undoubtedly made him the most dazzling star in the provincial team.

Fortunately, the top students all had their own modesty, so the atmosphere in the group was still quite harmonious.

After the final, Chi Chan won the bronze medal. Looking at Ji Siyuan who held the silver medal, Chi Chan asked with a smile, "How come this kind of exam has hidden strength?"

Ji Siyuan toyed with the silver medal in his hand: "With this award, I can go back and report!"

Chi Chan raised an eyebrow. So this is how high the parents of academic geniuses have their expectations for their children!

"So the math assignment isn't ready yet?"

Ji Siyuan frowned. Mathematics competitions are the most prestigious and competitive, so Gu Sirou would naturally pay more attention to mathematics.

After the biology competition ends, Ji Siyuan will immediately depart as a representative of Chinese middle school students to participate in the International Mathematical Olympiad.

With such a brilliant example before her, Gu Sirou naturally looked down on the biology competition, which she considered a "small fry".

Although Ji Siyuan usually never mentions his family affairs, after spending a lot of time with the group, especially with Zhuo Zhiyuan, who doesn't get along with Ji Siyuan, the group still knows a thing or two about Ji Siyuan's family situation.

Being a top student doesn't mean you have complete freedom in life.

Ji Siyuan's mother, Ms. Gu Sirou, raised Ji Siyuan as an all-around genius.

Besides going to school every day, Ji Siyuan has endless private tutoring sessions after school.

While he may not be an expert in astronomy and geography, Ji Siyuan was certainly proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

Shu Jia, Chi Chan, and Lin Da were stunned when they heard the news revealed by Zhuo Zhiyuan.

Ji Siyuan must be Nuwa's biological son!

For most teenagers, the grueling high school life is a rare haven for Ji Siyuan, a place where he can relax for a moment.

Chi Chan asked, "Are you able to manage all that work every day?"

Ji Siyuan said calmly, "Ms. Gu will arrange the schedule. I just need to attend on time!"

Chi Chan finally understood why Ji Siyuan was able to become the youngest mayor in China at such a young age in his previous life!

Some people are born into privilege, yet they work harder than anyone else, regardless of whether their efforts are voluntary or involuntary.

But they are all undoubtedly very admirable.

Chi Chan gave Ji Siyuan a thumbs up.

Without saying anything more, I'll just express my admiration for Ji Siyuan through body language.

I admire you so much, I'm completely in awe.

Chi Chan happily returned to Xingcheng with her medal, while Ji Siyuan went directly back to the national team and went abroad to compete with his coach.

After being reborn, the Chi family did indeed live a better life thanks to Chi Chan's efforts.

But all of this is based on Chi Chan's efforts and the diligence of Chi Ming and his wife.

As long as they seize the opportunities presented by the times, Chi Minghe and his wife can lead the entire Chi family to a better life through their hard work.

Even during the summer holidays when business is relatively slow, Chi Ming and his wife are still reluctant to close their business.

Instead, they were selling boxed lunches outside in temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.

Yes, during the summer vacation, Chi Ming and his wife would return to their old business, selling boxed lunches at construction sites.

Even though Chi Chan repeatedly advised Chi Minghe and his wife to relax and balance work and rest, the couple wouldn't listen.

Besides selling boxed lunches, the couple also had to take care of moving into their new house.

After taking possession of the house after the New Year, Chi Ming and his wife discussed starting the renovation as soon as possible.

The renovation of the new house was finally completed two months ago, and in the past two months, home appliances have been gradually added.

Chi Ming and his wife took great care of their new house, spending every spare moment there either opening windows for ventilation or cleaning.

On one occasion, Chi Chan was instructed by Zhang Qiaoyue to deliver a tool to the new house.

Wow—I didn't even dare to step out of the door when I opened it; it was just too clean.

Spotless.

Although Chi Ming and his wife were burdened with mortgage payments, they had invested most of their profits from the past six months in renovating their new home.

We chose high-quality building materials, furniture, and appliances, so we spent nearly half of the house price on the renovation.

The overall decoration style leans towards Chinese style, which is very warm and inviting.

The couple, along with Grandpa and Grandma Chi and their entire family, had already decided that September 9th was an auspicious day to move into their new home.

Chi Chan entered the room and stepped onto the wooden floor, feeling as if she were walking on clouds, experiencing a sense of unreality.

In her previous life, before Chi Minghe's accident, Chi Chan would accompany the couple to visit relatives every year during the Spring Festival. She would envy the relatives' apartment in the city, which was clean, tidy, and bright, and hot water came out as soon as they turned on the tap.

Unlike my own home, which is spacious, but offers no other advantages besides being spacious.

The water pumped up from the well is supposed to be warm in winter and cool in summer, but in winter, your hands often lose all warmth as soon as you take them out of the water.

The cold wind took away the remaining warmth, and when the wind blew again, my hands were dry and itchy, covered with frostbite cracks.

Chi Ming and his wife have worked hard for nearly twenty years, and most of their earnings have been spent on housing.

The villagers' homesteads are quite spacious. The Chi family's self-built house is nearly 300 square meters, and with the surrounding yard enclosed by a wall, the total area is about 500 square meters.

Each room was very large and square.

Aside from being large and spacious, it has no other advantages.
