The competition lasted for a whole day and it was already afternoon when it ended. After receiving the medal and prize money, Chen Xu went to find Dai Zixin and the others and asked them what they wanted to eat.

After discussion, the four girls unanimously decided to go eat hotpot.

Soon, they found a well-decorated hot pot restaurant nearby, went in, and found a table to sit down.

It was the first time for Chen Xu to have dinner with four people of the opposite sex. Dai Zixin and another girl were both very pretty. After they entered the door, they attracted a lot of attention from the people around them.

His mind was not on that and he didn't notice it at all.

"Chen Xu, you can't do this. You only care about yourself and don't even know how to help our Zi Xin."

Chen Xu had just finished washing his dishes when he heard a girl say in a teasing tone. He glanced at Dai Zixin who was sitting next to him and said, "You misunderstood. She and I are not in that kind of relationship."

"What's the relationship?" Several other girls seemed to be very interested in this topic and asked, "Are they close friends?"

"That's even less true." Chen Xu shook his head. "We were colleagues with a good relationship before, and now we are friends."

Jia Jia covered her mouth and laughed, "Don't you really have any thoughts about our Zi Xin?"

At this time, Dai Zixin said unhappily, "Hey, I told you guys everything, but you still don't believe it. Really."

Chen Xu could more or less guess what they were thinking, which was that they wanted to match him up with Dai Zixin.

To be honest, Dai Zixin has good looks, a good figure, and a good personality. If it were in the past, he would have woken up with a smile in his dreams if he could have a girlfriend like this.

However, he and Yang Jinxia were in such a mess that they couldn't get rid of it. He didn't know how long it would last, and he didn't want to harm the girl. He said, "Actually, I already have a girlfriend."

The other three girls fell silent immediately. They looked at each other, and finally looked at Dai Zixin.

"Ah?" Dai Zixin was a little surprised and asked, "Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Chen Xu said, "I got together with her only after I resigned."

The three girls looked at the expressions of the two men and finally believed that they were not in that kind of ambiguous relationship.

Jia Jia, who was more familiar with him, asked, "Why didn't your girlfriend come to accompany you this time?"

"She happened to be on a business trip."

As we were talking, the food finally arrived.

The three girls stopped making fun of them and continued to chat and eat, creating a lively atmosphere.

Chen Xu was always thinking about Bai Jinxuan and seemed not very interested.

More than an hour later, after finishing the meal, Chen Xu paid the bill, said goodbye to them, and took the bus back alone.

The four girls drove here by themselves and walked towards the parking lot together, chattering among themselves.

A girl said, "This Chen Xu, I thought he was quite ordinary when I saw him last time. But this time he seemed a little different. Especially during the competition, he was really awesome. It seemed like he won the competition easily."

"I think so too." Jia Jia added, "Originally, I thought he wasn't a good match for our Zi Xin. I didn't expect that he has changed so much after not seeing him for a few months. Unfortunately, he already has a girlfriend."

"Alas, why are all the outstanding men always taken by others? Zixin, why don't you try hard to catch up with him?"

Dai Zixin rolled her eyes at her and said, "Don't you understand? I don't have that kind of intention towards me. Besides, this kind of straight man is not my type."

"What's wrong with that? Do you like..."

"Ah, I'm going to kill you for saying such things in the street."

Several girls immediately started chasing each other and laughing.

…………

Chen Xu had no idea that the four girls were talking about him. When they got back to the noodle shop by car, it was already past nine o'clock.

"Surprise!"

As soon as he walked into the store, Chen Ziqi suddenly jumped in front of him from the side and yelled, which scared him and he punched him subconsciously.

"ah!"

The fist stopped when it was only one centimeter away from her face, and the wind it created messed up her bangs.

"Why are you here?"

Chen Xu secretly said in his heart that it was a close call. If he hadn't recognized her and stopped in time, her nose would have been broken by this punch. After gaining the skill of fighting proficiency, he seemed to have learned all kinds of fighting skills naturally without a teacher.

The only inconvenience is that sometimes there will be a stress response. When you sense danger, the conditioned response will usually be to fight back.

This morning, when he was riding the subway, it was too crowded and someone was about to step on his foot. He almost crippled the other person with his knee. Fortunately, he reacted in time and didn't hit the other person's vital parts. Otherwise, he would have been in jail today.

Chen Ziqi was obviously frightened and could not react for several seconds. Suddenly, he shouted, "Chen Xu, you heartless man, how can you welcome me like this? I have been waiting for you here for a whole day and I didn't even have a hot meal. Woo, I will tell my second aunt that you beat me..."

"Didn't it hit?" Chen Xu felt helpless.

"But you scared me. Humph, I don't care. I'm going to complain to my sister-in-law. Second Aunt can't control you, so I don't believe your girlfriend can't control you either."

Chen Xu said helplessly, "If you can find her, you'll be awesome."

Chen Ziqi keenly sensed something wrong in his words and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Literally, she's gone, she's disappeared, she can't be found."

"ah?"

"Also, don't mention her in front of me anymore."

"Oh." Chen Ziqi nodded vigorously and said, "It's her own loss if she leaves you. Don't be sad. There are plenty of women in this world. I'll give you my best friend's WeChat in a moment."

“…”

Chen Xu didn't even have the energy to scold her. He didn't want to pay attention to her and said to Aunt Zhou in the kitchen, "I'm sorry to bother you today. Please go back."

"No trouble." Aunt Zhou covered her mouth and smiled, "You two siblings have such a good relationship."

"What's good about that? I'll be thankful if she can make me angry less once." Chen Xu said unhappily, and Chen Ziqi made a face at him.

After Aunt Zhou left, Chen Xu went inside to wash his face and hands, then came out wearing an apron and asked, "Would you like some noodles?"

"want."

"Then sit down first." Chen Xu said, walked into the kitchen and started to get busy.

Chen Ziqi didn't sit down either, but stood by the kitchen and asked, "Where did you go today?"

"To make money. By the way, you haven't told me why you are here?"

"I came when I wanted to."

"Speak human language."

Chen Ziqi said with some pride, "Hey, I was admitted to a key high school. My homeroom teacher talked to me and told me to stay out of class as much as possible so as not to affect other students' mentality."

Chen Xu was a little surprised, "Admission by recommendation?"

"Yeah, I won first prize in the provincial math Olympiad."

He stopped what he was doing and looked at her in surprise, "Why haven't I heard Uncle San mention it before?"

Chen Ziqi smiled proudly and said, "I told him not to say it because I wanted to give you a surprise. How about it? Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Chen Xu picked up the towel to dry his hands, touched the top of her head, and said with relief, "Not bad, our Chen family finally has a primary school bully."

"A top student is a top student, why add a small word?" Chen Ziqi said dissatisfiedly.

"When you get admitted to Mizuki or Kyoto University, you can remove the small characters."
