"Brother, what's the matter?" Xuanxuan asked in a low voice.

The man's clear eyes fell on the tear marks on her little face, and his gaze fell on the study materials in the room, "It's so late, are you still studying?"

Xuanxuan was a little embarrassed. "I came from the village and took the course here, hoping to learn more..."

"It's already 12 o'clock, and you have to get up early for class tomorrow." The man glanced at the watch on his wrist and said, "Go to bed."

"But I still can learn it..." Xuanxuan bit her lip, lowered her eyes, and said in a low voice.

"Come to my study after school tomorrow and I will teach you." said 놛.

Xuanxuan raised her head and looked at him in surprise with her soft eyes. She curled her lips, her eyes sparkling, "Really?"

"Yeah." The man couldn't help laughing.

"Thank you, brother!" Xuanxuan was as happy as a child who got candy.

She knew that her brother was a very good student and had always been the top student in the school. If he taught her, she would definitely be able to keep up with the school's progress!

She would never be last again.

So, after school, she went to Ji Qing's study.

From then on, Ji Qing tutored her on her homework every day. She marked the questions she got wrong and carefully reviewed why she got them wrong, such as carelessness and weak basic knowledge. Then, based on the gaps in her knowledge, she would teach her specifically and find out some previous questions for her to do.

As for the subject of English, her spoken English was very good, so Ji Qing went there once to teach her spoken English.

After studying for one semester, she went from last to the top three in the class.

On the final day of the semester, she returned home with her certificate in her hands, full of joy, "Brother, I got third place in the exam!"

"Come on." Ji Qing handed her a small gift box, "A gift for you."

Xuanxuan opened it and found an exquisite and gorgeous pen inside.

She placed the pen on her heart, she was filled with joy, her big bright eyes curved like crescents as she smiled, "Thank you, brother! I will study harder!"

"The college entrance examination will be held soon. I hope you get good results." Ji Qing looked at her with warm eyes and said.

With Ji Qing's efforts, Xuan Xuan studied harder.

Her grades are getting better and better.

Until the end of the college entrance examination——

That day, Xuanxuan returned home and found the house was unusually lively.

"Xuanxuan, come here quickly and clean up the things! Wipe the table and the chairs! Also, wipe the vase on the table! Don't leave out the dust on the photo frames at home, wipe them all clean." Li Xiumei's face was full of joy.

"Auntie, is there any happy event at home?" Xuanxuan was very obedient and quickly wiped the table, wiping it hard.

"Of course it's a happy event." Li Xiumei said, "Our family is very clean, and I'm going to bring my girlfriend home this time!"

Xuanxuan's hand that was wiping the table paused, and she stood there in a daze.

"Xuezhi and I have been childhood sweethearts," Li Xiumei said. "We have been playing together since we were young and have a very good relationship. Xuezhi's father's family also owns a factory, and her conditions are also very good. She is a perfect match for our family. I am very satisfied with this daughter-in-law."

Xuanxuan tightened her grip on the rag, lowered her little face and wiped the table noisily.

"Wipe carefully, leaving no corner untouched!" Li Xiumei said, "Remember to mop the floor after wiping, so that you can leave a good impression on Xuezhi later!"

Xuanxuan worked silently without making any noise. She wiped all the tables and all the corners of the house and mopped the floor. She was so tired that her waist ached and she sweated a lot. Her clothes were soaked with sweat and she looked dusty and dirty.

Li Xiumei brought out the best fruits and cakes in the house. "This mango is also very good. I think Xuezhi will like it. And this cherry is also good... I hope Xuezhi will like it."

"I have to hurry to the kitchen to cook a table of dishes!" Li Xiumei said as she went to the kitchen to get busy.

Li Xiumei used to cook by herself, but this time, in order to show her sincerity, she started cooking by herself.

Xuanxuan lowered her eyes and continued with her life.

Not long after, the door was opened——

"Mom, I'm back." At this time, Ji Qing walked towards the house, holding on to a girl who was wearing a light pink dress, had big wavy hair, a pretty and delicate face, and a gentle and beautiful appearance.

"Xuezhi, you're finally here," Li Xiumei walked out of the kitchen, took off her apron, and smiled, "I cooked a large table of dishes, all of which are your favorites, Xuezhi."

"Thank you, Auntie." Su Xuezhi smiled gently.

"Why are you still calling me auntie? You should call me mom from now on." Li Xiumei held Su Xuezhi's hand affectionately, "Xuezhi, when I was a child, I saw you two playing together, and I knew that you two were born to be together. I had this idea in my mind, but I didn't expect that my dream of many years would come true."

Su Xuezhi pursed her lips and smiled, then looked back at Ji Qing who was standing beside her.

The man, who was always gentle and indifferent, looked at Su Xuezhi with eyes full of gentle doting.

Xuanxuan, who was standing by, felt at a loss when she saw this scene.

She was as awkward as a stranger showing up in our house.

Oh, she was originally a foreigner.

"Who is this?" Su Xuezhi's beautiful eyes fell on Lin Xuanxuan and asked curiously.

The moment her eyes met Su Xuezhi's, Lin Xuanxuan almost raised her head in inferiority.

At this moment, Su Xuezhi's dress was so delicate, her makeup was so beautiful, she was so pretty, gentle and graceful, while herself was wearing loose and baggy clothes, with her face exposed, her bangs sticking to her face, her hair combed back into a very rustic low ponytail, she was sweating a lot and looked dusty. Standing next to Su Xuezhi, she looked like a green leaf against a red flower in contrast.

There is also a gray and the most inconspicuous green leaf.

Lin Xuanxuan lowered her eyes and head, not daring to raise her head to meet Su Xuezhi's gaze.

"She is Lin Xuanxuan, my sister."

"She is a girl adopted by our family. Her father died in an accident at the factory, and we took her in because we felt sorry for her."

Ji Qing and Li Xiumei's voices rang out at the same time.

"Oh." Su Xuezhi smiled, took out a pearl hairpin from her exquisite bag and handed it to Lin Xuanxuan, "Hello Xuanxuan, you can call me sister-in-law from now on. This is the first time we meet, and this is a gift I prepared for you."

Lin Xuanxuan looked up at the sparkling pearl hairpin.

That hairpin is so pretty.

What you once had.

"She is not worthy of wearing such a nice thing. You should put it away," said Li Xiumei.
