The weekend came quickly. Li Zihao came to visit the Lin family while Lin Ruanruan was still asleep. At that time, Xuan Yuanhaocheng was having breakfast in the dining room.
He was a little surprised to see Li Zihao arrive so early, and the enthusiastic aunt invited Li Zihao to have a meal together.
Li Zihao said apologetically, "No need, I already ate when I came."
Lin Ruanruan would always call him to leave when they were studying together at school or at the Huo family's house. But today, since the meeting was at Lin Ruanruan's house, he arrived a little early.
Xuan Yuanhao told Li Zihao to make himself at home, "You sit down for a while, I'll call Ruan Ruan down."
Li Zihao nodded quickly, sitting up straight. He glanced around curiously out of the corner of his eye and found that Lin Ruanruan's home was really cozy.
Since transferring to Class 13, he feels that he is no longer depressed. Before, in the honors class, he got up earlier than the chickens and went to bed later than the dogs every day.
They arrive at school an hour earlier than other students, finish class an hour later, and have to attend extra classes on weekends and holidays.
After joining Class 13, he could finish class on time every day, and the teachers would not extend the class. As soon as school was over, Lin Ruanruan and a few others would pull him along, something he had never dared to imagine before.
Moreover, his grades did not decline after he transferred to Class 13, but they did not improve either. He still ranked fourth in the recent monthly exam.
Fang Lan, Huo Xian, and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng remained at the top, while Lin Ruan Ruan was still firmly in tenth place. This time, Class 13 had five students in the top ten, while only three students from the top-performing class made it into the top ten.
I heard that the head of the teaching department is considering turning the honors class into a regular class. Every time the homeroom teacher of the honors class sees him, he looks at him with disdain, but he is not afraid of him now.
After all, the homeroom teacher of Class 13 was very protective of his students. He had argued with the homeroom teacher of the top class who wanted to poach students more than once, which made Li Zihao feel very safe.
Of course, what made him happiest was joining the study group of Class 13. The four of them were indeed geniuses. It was definitely the best decision he ever made in his life to muster up the courage to switch classes and join them.
Fang Lan is an all-around academic genius, Huo Xian and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng are science geniuses with some specializations, and Lin Ruan Ruan is a pure humanities genius.
Although Lin Ruanruan was always very modest, in Li Zihao's eyes she was really strong. She had an excellent memory, remembered written things very quickly, and almost always got full marks in reading comprehension and composition. Her compositions were always published in the school newspaper.
Her weaknesses lie in science subjects; her logical reasoning skills are not strong enough, and she can only memorize many things by rote. But even so, she passes every science subject. Of course, her ranking of tenth in the whole grade is mainly due to her near-perfect scores in Chinese, foreign languages, and humanities.
Of course, Lin Ruanruan's prowess doesn't stop there. Li Zihao has already realized that Lin Ruanruan is the center of their group. What incredible courage that is!
Even someone as lazy as Fang Lan was willing to study with her, and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng and Huo Xian, who were both so talented in science and aloof, even specially made a study plan for her.
Indeed, he should learn from Lin Ruanruan.
Lin Ruanruan yawned as she came downstairs after getting ready, unaware of how impressive she appeared in Li Zihao's eyes at that moment.
Seeing Li Zihao sitting awkwardly in the living room, she quickly got downstairs. "Li Zihao, you're here so early! Let's have dinner together!"
Li Zihao shook his head and said, "No need, I already ate when I came."
"Really?" Lin Ruanruan looked at Li Zihao with suspicion. "You're not lying to me?"
Li Zihao's face flushed again. "Really..."
"You're lying to me." Lin Ruanruan put her hands on her hips triumphantly. "Come on, come on, Aunt Qian's breakfast is delicious."
She pushed Li Zihao directly into the restaurant. Being a fellow socially anxious person, she could immediately tell that Li Zihao was embarrassed, and that he must have rushed over without having eaten.
Li Zihao blushed as Lin Ruanruan pushed him to a seat, and Lin Ruanruan warmly brought him breakfast.
"Just consider it as keeping me company while I eat," Lin Ruanruan said, taking a bite of the xiaolongbao.
Li Zihao pursed his lips. "Thank you, Ruan Ruan."
He really has a lot to learn. Sister Ruan is so gentle and considerate…
Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng raised an eyebrow at this scene, but didn't say anything. He went straight to the living room to read.
Fang Lan and Huo Xian arrived right after breakfast, along with Li Xue'er, whom they hadn't seen in a long time.
Huo Xian was chatting happily with Li Xue'er when Lin Ruanruan saw Li Xue'er and her eyes lit up. "Sister Xue'er, you're even more beautiful now."
Li Xueer couldn't help but smile, her eyes crinkling. "Your words are getting sweeter and sweeter."
"Oh, right, I got you your contact lenses as you requested. I heard you wanted to dress up as someone else?"
Lin Ruanruan happily accepted the contact lenses. She had specifically asked Li Zihao about his prescription after school yesterday and had a professional, Li Xueer, help her choose them.
Just then, Lin Ruanruan's makeup artist and stylist arrived. Huo Xian raised an eyebrow at the scene and asked, "Ruanruan, are you trying to get Li Zihao to attend the banquet?"
Lin Ruanruan looked at Li Zihao, who was sitting obediently on the stool with black-rimmed glasses, and said, "I just don't want to waste resources."
Li Zihao was still a bit out of it. "Ruanruan, no, it's not necessary... Besides, Yuanyuan isn't here today either."
Lin Ruanruan shrugged. "There's nothing I can do. Her future husband came back to China to see her today. But you can still dress up a bit."
Li Xueer had just noticed Li Zihao; the boy's presence was so faint that she went up to him.
Li Zihao leaned back shyly; the woman was so beautiful that he was a little embarrassed to meet her gaze.
Li Xueer exclaimed in surprise and immediately did the same thing as Fang Lan, taking off Li Zihao's glasses.
"Little friend, you're doing great! Why are you so insecure?"
Lin Ruanruan immediately perked up, "Right, right? I told you he was very handsome."
Li Xueer nodded, "It's a rough gem."
Lin Ruanruan had someone take Li Zihao directly to the dressing room so that the stylist could determine Li Zihao's hairstyle first.
The others followed, and Huo Xian was quite interested in the modifications.
Lin Ruanruan leaned closer to Huo Xian and said with a smile, "Didn't Xianxian dislike being in the dressing room the most?"
Huo Xian pinched Lin Ruanruan's cheek. "I just don't like being tormented like this, but it must be interesting to watch others be tormented."
She was truly tormented by Ms. Yan Ru during her winter break.
Li Xueer leaned against the soft couch in the dressing room, helping Li Zihao choose a hairstyle. After confirming it, she let the hairstylist start working on it.
Li Zihao accepted the surgery with a numb expression. He had already realized that his refusal was completely useless...
Lin Ruanruan looked at Li Xueer curiously, "Sister Xueer, you said you were forced to go on a blind date last night, is that true?"
Li Xueer nodded helplessly, "It's true, and you'd never guess who your blind date will be."
"Who is it?" Lin Ruanruan asked curiously.
Huo Xian and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng, who had been watching from the sidelines, also looked over.
Li Xue'er rubbed her forehead, both amused and exasperated, "Your brother Fang Si..."
