Chapter 748 Returning to the Ancestors (4)

Now the four female workers were eating together. The chef from the kitchen had not come out yet. There were five dishes on the table, but they were all cooked very well.

Xu Xiao had not eaten yet. He was cleaning up the mess at the neighboring table, head lowered, working tirelessly.

Zhao Li frowned. She had no idea that these female workers were such people. When she came out to pay the bill, she said to Xu Xiao, "Xu Xiao, don't clean up yet. The food over there is almost gone. Clean up after you finish eating."

The female workers who were eating over there were not stupid either. They knew he was talking about them and immediately stood up awkwardly.

Knowing the relationship between Zhao Li and the Ruan family, they did not dare to say anything. They just smiled apologetically at Zhao Li and then stood up to help Xu Xu clean up.

Jiang Bin glanced at her and then looked away.

When they walked out of the restaurant, Zhao Li's friend smiled

and joked, "Zhao Li, I didn't expect that after so many years, you are still as kind-hearted as ever." Zhao Li smiled and said indifferently, "That child is pitiful, I would like to help him as much as possible."

Zhao Li had a good impression of Xu Xiao. In her eyes, this was a standard child from other people's families, with good grades, good personality, and hard work. Compared with the two devils in her family, he was simply many times better.

She also learned some of his life experience from Shu Jie, and she felt very sympathetic to him. Naturally, she would help him as much as possible. Anyway, for them, it was just a piece of cake.

Her friend nodded and said nothing more.

Jiang Bin asked, "Is his family in financial difficulty?"

The only hardship Jiang Bin could think of was poverty.

"It's a bit complicated, and it's hard to explain in a short time." Zhao Li said. She wasn't the type to gossip about other people's affairs, so she didn't dwell on it, but changed the subject and talked about something else.

Jiang Bin just asked casually, without getting to the bottom of it.

Monday.

The test results came out last Friday. It was said that the first and second place winners would participate in the Olympic Games, but Ruan Jiaojiao was not among the top two.

Instead, Xu Xu and Qi Weixin tied for first place, and Ruan Lei and Ruan Jiaojiao tied for third place.

Ruan Lei was the math class representative, and his math grades had always been good, from childhood to adulthood. Before Xu Xu and Ruan Jiaojiao came along, he had always been the first place, but after they came along, he could only get third place.

So it was normal for him to get this score.

Xu Xu's score was beyond doubt, it was always so good, what was surprising was that Ruan Jiaojiao was not the first, you know, she and Xu Xu have always been tied for first place in the past few years.

Instead, Qi Weixin and Xu Xu tied for first place?

Qi Weixin's score was biased towards liberal arts, and she was not outstanding in mathematics when she entered junior high school. How come she turned around and ranked first in junior high school?

Many classmates were shocked, and those who were good friends with Qi Weixin congratulated her enthusiastically.

Zeng Qi, who had always been her best friend, said, "Weixin, you are amazing. You said you would definitely win this time, but it turned out to be true."

Qi Weixin was so happy, but she looked humble, "No, I was just lucky. I just did it casually."

"Wow, you got this result just by doing it casually. You are really great." Another classmate followed suit.

The fat boy and Lu Zishu, who were watching the list, rolled their eyes in an ungracious manner.

The fat boy even pretended to imitate and said, "Oh, I just did it casually."

Lu Zishu immediately said in tacit understanding, "Wow, you are awesome."
