Lu Chuqing opened the bag and saw that there were several boxes of chocolates and several boxes of milk.
The chocolate was the foreign brand that Qu Fusang gave her, and the milk was the brand that Lu Linqi often brought her.
Qu Fusang was thin and small. She originally thought that she just liked to eat sweets, but later she found out that the little girl did not like to eat breakfast. She had fainted once because she did not eat breakfast, so she liked to carry some chocolate with her to replenish her energy.
That brand was just right—not too bitter, with a hint of sweetness—which she especially loved.
Lu Chuqing receives different flavored chocolates from Qu Fusang every morning. She also likes to eat chocolate, but a single chocolate bar is quite large and is enough for her to eat for a day.
She got a little tired of it after eating it for two days in a row, and she had also eaten breakfast and had a snack of milk given to her by Lu Linqi in the morning.
She was afraid of gaining weight from eating too much, so she kept all the chocolates and brought them back to give to Xi Qingxu.
Lu Linqi doesn't like these foods, so she had to bring them back because he wouldn't take them.
At first, she didn't think of giving it to Xi Qingxu. But when she got home that day, she didn't go back to her room. Instead, she took out her homework from the small round table in the studio that faced the stairs.
The chocolate was in the way, so she took it out and placed it on the table.
Then Xi Qingxu went upstairs behind her. When he got to the top of the stairs, he saw the chocolate she had placed on the table and stared at it for a few seconds.
She sensed something was wrong and assumed he wanted some, so she gave it to him directly.
The boy took it after two seconds and said to her, "Thank you."
She was focused on taking out her homework at the time, and casually replied "You're welcome" before getting busy, unaware that this person would buy her so many chocolates a few days later.
In her past life, she was poor and had never seen the world, but in this life, she has a rich second brother. Although she has never bought any of the chocolates, she knows that the brand is not cheap.
Ever since I first learned about Xi Qingxu, I've heard that he's been busy with part-time jobs.
She didn't know how much he could earn in a day with a part-time job, but even with two or three hours of part-time work, he couldn't earn more than fifty yuan.
A box of chocolates costs more than fifty.
Since she'd already bought it, and they brought it to her anyway, it would be a waste of money and effort if she didn't want it.
Then she took a carton of milk out of the bag and handed it to the boy, "Thank you, Brother Qingxu. You can keep this milk to replenish your energy!"
Xi Qingxu took the milk, then looked at her and said, "Don't call me brother."
Lu Chuqing was confused. "Huh?"
But she quickly remembered that Xi Qingxu had never called her "sister" before, not even by her name.
Indeed, suddenly having a new family can be difficult to adjust to.
After all, he wasn't like her, someone who had lived two lives and was already very adaptable.
Just as she was thinking about those things, Xi Qingxu spoke again, "I don't want you as my sister."
Um?
After saying that, the boy went back to his room.
Lu Chuqing was stunned for a while, unable to understand what Xi Qingxu meant.
What do you mean he doesn't want her as his sister? Does he want another sister?
So that means this person never treated her like a younger sister?!
She even called him "brother" before!
Lu Chuqing closed the door and casually tossed a bag of chocolates onto the snack shelf, feeling that her kind gesture had been wasted, as if a basin had been poured on the ground.
When Lu Linqi first stayed with the Lu family, she was always sour and she wasn't this attentive.
If Lu Ying hadn't kept telling her how difficult it was for Xi Qingxu to be with Xi Jun, and even said that he didn't have a mother's love, it would have been a mistake.
Thinking of how she also lacked a mother's love in her previous life, she took the initiative to befriend Xi Qingxu with a bit of sympathy.
She would serve him food at meals and call him "brother," but he didn't treat her like a sister at all.
Forget it, why should she argue with a stubborn child?
She has a brother, so why would she want him?
A month passed quickly, and the first monthly exam arrived as scheduled.
The exam is scheduled before National Day, and will last for two days. The holiday will start right after the exam.
On the morning of the exam, Xi Jun got up early to prepare a perfect breakfast for the two of them, and also gave them various comforting words and instructions.
Xi Qingxu said she had no problem with the exam, and Lu Chuqing also said she felt confident, but wasn't sure if she could get first place.
At this moment, she sincerely admired the boy and said to him, "Good luck on the exam. Let me see what the first place paper looks like."
Then Xi Qingxu said "okay".
Actually, his relationship with Lu Chuqing had become noticeably less intense during this period. She used to talk to him, and she still did, but not as much as before.
Perhaps neither Xi Jun nor Lu Ying noticed, only he himself felt that the girl was somewhat colder towards him than before.
He couldn't figure out what was going on.
She always seems to have endless things to say when she's with other people.
There was still half an hour of self-study before the exam, and everyone in the class was memorizing things.
Xi Qingxu stared blankly at his textbook. His deskmate was a talkative boy.
They arranged seats on the first day of school, probably knowing he didn't like to talk, so they deliberately moved the boys next to him.
He knew his deskmate was talking to the girl behind him again, so he reached out and tapped on his desk.
Thinking the teacher had arrived, my deskmate quickly turned around, covered his face with his upright textbook, and shouted two words at the top of his lungs.
Then he found no one at either the front or back door. He was about to complain that Xi Qingxu had startled him, but instead he heard the other person say, "If someone talks more to other people than to you, what does that mean?"
"Huh?" His deskmate thought he was hallucinating. His deskmate, who was ranked first in the grade, actually spoke to him?!
Xi Qingxu looked at him, waiting for his answer.
