After Luo Xikui ran away from the Xu family, her reddened eyes finally broke down in tears.

I hailed a taxi on the street and sat in the back seat, sobbing violently while clutching my backpack.

How could he say that to her? So what if she's smart? She doesn't usually mind if he calls her stupid, but how could he go so far!

She's definitely not slacking off; she's been doing a lot of extra homework every day lately!

"You naughty Tuantuan, you big jerk!" She choked back tears as she took out her math test paper folder from her schoolbag. From 38 in the initial mock exam to 45 in the second mock exam, to 56 in the third mock exam, and then to 63 in the midterm exam, there was always a little progress each time.

These improvements seemed insignificant to him, but she had clearly made an effort!

From a total score of 310 in the first mock exam to the current total score of 367, I have clearly improved by more than 50 points. With the addition of physical education, I will have a total score of 400. Getting into No. 3 Middle School will be no problem at all.

"You big bad guy." She sniffled, wiping away tears that soaked the test paper.

"Little girl, where are you going?" The driver asked, glancing at the girl crying her heart out in the back seat.

Luo Xikui stopped crying, looked around, and not wanting her family to see her crying so badly, said, "Pull over."

After paying and getting off the bus, she walked to the coffee shop on the corner, washed her face in the restroom to calm her bad mood, and then found a seat by the window.

I ordered a glass of orange juice, then took out my test papers and homework, and started doing my homework.

A short while later, a noise was heard from the front desk. It turned out that the store's online payment system was down, and a customer had just finished eating a set meal and didn't have cash to pay.

Luo Xikui looked up and saw that it was a boy wearing the uniform of No. 1 Middle School. She got up, walked over, took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the receptionist, saying, "I'll pay for him."

The boy turned around, and Luo Xikui was slightly stunned; he was surprisingly handsome…

People won't think she's lustful, will they?

"Thank you," the boy said in a low voice.

Luo Xikui waved her hand, returned to her seat, and continued to do her homework.

The boy walked up to her and said, "If it's convenient, give me your WeChat or Alipay account and I'll transfer the money back to you."

Luo Xikui was particularly cautious; it's best not to give your account information to strangers.

The boy noticed the wariness in her eyes, smiled faintly, and wondered why such a vigilant girl would help him pay.

He couldn't figure it out, so he just asked directly.

Luo Xikui looked up at his gleaming school badge and said with some envy, "Because I want to get into No. 1 High School."

The boy was surprised by the answer and chuckled. Looking at her school uniform, he said, "Students from Yuhua High School have a pretty good chance of getting into No. 1 High School."

Luo Xikui lowered her head and sighed, then continued working on the test paper.

The boy glanced at the score on her math test, paused for a moment, and realized he had said something wrong.

"Ahem, that's not how you solve this problem. You've applied the wrong formula." The boy sat down next to her, took a pen from her bag, and started writing on the draft paper, explaining in a low voice.

"Oh, I see." Luo Xikui suddenly understood and used the same method he had explained to solve a problem in her homework.

"Yes, you did very well. Actually, these exams are all just a few patterns. As long as you do all the possible types of questions a few times, math isn't that difficult." The boy smiled gently.

She couldn't help but laugh too; it was the first time she had ever solved the second-to-last big question, which was worth 15 points!
