Chapter 853 "Competing for Favor"



Unlike He Xiaoguo, who grew at a steady pace, He Sui suddenly started growing taller during puberty. He quickly grew to over 1.8 meters tall, much to the relief of his parents who had been worried about him becoming short.

He Xiaoguo is currently over 1.7 meters tall, and he will definitely be one of the 1.8-meter tall men in the future, which makes his family very relieved.

He Sui's embarrassing past was exposed. His eyes widened, and he said angrily, "How could I be a shorty? I've always been this tall."

He Xiaoguo twitched the corner of her lips, revealing a helpless expression, then turned to look at He Jing, her eyes sparkling.

He'd been clinging to He Jing for a long time; the whole family knew it. And He Sui, who also liked to cling to He Jing, immediately grabbed He Xiaoguo by the back of his neck, pulled him over, and tapped him on the head: "Where's your report card? Let me see it."

He Xiaoguo had no choice but to reluctantly go and get the report card, handing it to He Sui.

He Sui was focused on showing off his skills if He Xiaoguo's grades were bad, to teach him a lesson he shouldn't have. But instead, a row of bright red "S" grades on the report card made He Sui's eyes widen in surprise—

Wow, he's ranked first in his class and first in the whole school, even better than he was back then.

Seeing He Sui's unpleasant expression, He Jing assumed that He Xiaoguo's grades had dropped significantly, and her heart skipped a beat: "Fourth Brother, what's wrong? Has Xiaoguo regressed a lot?"

He Sui said sourly, "The grades are alright, but not by any means."

So what if I'm number one? I had many first-place finishes back in the day.

He Xiaoguo looked at him obediently and said, "Sister, my grades aren't very good. Could you tutor me again?"

He Jing smiled and said, "Of course."

She was more than happy to oblige.

She knew that He Xiaoguo often flew all over the world and completed much of her studies while traveling.

He Sui: "?"

Then, realizing what he had just said, he gasped, "You little brat..."

Playing dirty tricks?

He actually wants to monopolize He Jing all by himself!

He Xiaoguo turned her head, blinking her eyes sweetly, "Fourth Brother, you just got back, you must be very busy, right? My sister and I won't bother you."

He Sui almost cursed, "Thank you so much, I've got plenty of free time."

At this moment, He Zhou, who had been observing coldly, suddenly spoke up: "He Jing."

He Jing looked up: "Third Brother?"

He Zhou: "Come into the kitchen with me and let's have a cooking contest."

He Jing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

It's been a long time since she cooked with He Zhou.

Just as she was about to walk towards He Zhou, He Sui shouted, "No way! Xiao Guo and I called our numbers first, why are you cutting in line?"

He Zhou glanced at him coolly: "I'm third and you're fourth."

The older brother has an innate bloodline advantage over the younger brother.

Immediately, He Sui's handsome face turned red with embarrassment, and he said indignantly, "It's only a dozen minutes early, what's the point of bringing it up so often?"

Seeing that he was really angry, He Jing quickly comforted him, "Fourth Brother, haven't you had my fried beef balls in a long time? I can make them for you."

He Sui's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes."

He Xiaoguo: "..."

My brother is such a good-for-nothing.

He had originally hoped that He Sui would join him in taking down Hezhou, but he was won over with just a few beef balls. His feelings for her were too fragile.

However, she wasn't so easily coaxed and would never be intimidated by her cold-hearted third brother. He Xiaoguo looked at He Jing with teary eyes: "Sister, my homework..."

He Zhou sneered, "With the top score in the whole school, what else do you need He Jing to help you with? Don't waste He Jing's time."

He Jing: "?"

He Xiaoguo: "?"

Seemingly knowing what He Xiaoguo was thinking, He Zhou said coldly, "The first thing I did when I got back was to look at your report card. You tried to fool He Jing, but you can't fool me."

He Xiaoguo looked regretful, her head drooping listlessly, her eyelashes covering her eyelids like two rows of thick little brushes.

So, He Jing silently patted He Xiaoguo's head and left with He Zhou.

Before leaving, He Zhou reminded He Sui, "Fourth brother, wash that suitcase of dirty clothes you dragged back. Don't leave them for He Jing to wash."

He Sui, whose joy lasted no more than three seconds, couldn't help but blurt out a curse upon hearing this: "***!"
