Xu Huimin felt like she could devour a whale now. Was this still the great demon king she remembered? Qin Xuan was actually granting Ye Zhizhou's every request?
"You've already taught me a lot of math. If you want me to teach you chemistry too, then I'll have my brother pay you."
Ye Zhizhou hesitated for a moment. She remembered that Qin Xuan had only come to her house because Ye Qian had invited him. Now that he was willing to teach her something else, he would definitely have to pay her double.
She had already emptied her bank account to buy Qin Xuan a birthday present, and was waiting for her father to send her money next time.
That's why I thought of asking other people for advice instead of Qin Xuan.
She knew Qin Xuan was powerful, but he was also wealthy.
"No payment is needed, just consider it a thank you for helping me organize my birthday party."
Qin Xuan looked at the wrong questions on Ye Zhizhou's chemistry test paper and started writing on them, helping her analyze the reasons for the mistakes.
Mentioning the birthday party, Ye Zhizhou took a card out of his bag and placed it on Qin Xuan's desk.
"Aunt Huo gave this to me last time, saying I should use it to throw your birthday party. I didn't get to use it, so I'm returning it to you. Please pass it on to her for me."
For a fleeting moment, Ye Zhizhou felt like a professional gigolo who collected bank cards from various banks on a side.
Qin Xuan refused, saying, "Just accept what she gives you; she's never short of money."
There seems to be a hidden meaning in those words.
A thought flashed through Ye Zhizhou's mind: Qin Xuan seemed to have a deep conflict with Huo Qingyan, but she didn't intend to get involved.
Experience taught her not to meddle in other people's emotional conflicts; those who aren't involved have no right to speak.
"No, I really can't accept this money."
She didn't check the balance in her card, but since it was given by Huo Qingyan, it must have been at least several hundred thousand yuan.
"If they won't accept him, then go find Cen Yuzhou. He's in Class Two."
Ye Zhizhou: ...
"Okay, then I'll accept it."
She couldn't understand why everyone around her loved giving money so much. Was there nothing else to it besides money? Couldn't they at least show some humanistic concern?
Qin Xuan only explained two or three questions to her, and she felt enlightened. She sighed that although they were both top students, there was still a gap between them. Qin Xuan was a genius, and she was a struggling student.
She concluded that her main weakness in chemistry was her weak foundation in basic knowledge, and it was clearly impossible to improve her basic knowledge in a short period of time, so she had to take a shortcut.
Can I borrow your notes?
Qin Xuan didn't refuse and generously threw all his notes to Ye Zhizhou.
Ye Zhizhou stared at the seven or eight notebooks stacked on her desk, lost in thought. She realized she was wrong, terribly wrong. It turned out the gap between her and Qin Xuan wasn't just in intelligence; her effort was also far from sufficient.
"Pay attention to efficiency. Don't just squeeze every last drop of time out of yourself. You still need to go out for a walk when the time is right." Qin Xuan could see the fatigue on Ye Zhizhou's face. For him, efficiency was more important than the length of time.
Ye Zhizhou didn't refute it; whatever the academic genius said was right.
When the exchange program ended, Su Rui and Xu Ze left the school that day, and Chen Jing personally saw Su Rui off.
"Su Rui, my right eyelid has been twitching a lot lately. My mom says it's not a good thing. I heard Ye Zhizhou has been studying really hard lately. Could she really turn things around?"
With the date for K University's independent admissions process drawing ever closer, Chen Jing was even more nervous than Ye Zhizhou.
Su Rui comforted her, "I heard that the spots are even more competitive this year than last year, so don't worry. If you're still worried, find someone to cause Ye Zhizhou some trouble so she can't concentrate on her studies."

Su Rui asked Chen Jing to cause trouble for Ye Zhizhou. Chen Jing acted quickly and immediately found something for Ye Zhizhou to do.
"Today is a big clean-up day. Each student needs to be responsible for cleaning a section of the area. Everyone should participate actively and not be lazy!"
The last class was supposed to be a Chinese class, but the homeroom teacher suddenly barged in and said that the school was going to conduct a surprise inspection and that everyone should participate in cleaning, so the Chinese class would be canceled.
Few people enjoy cleaning, but some students are model workers, actively taking on tasks.
"Ye Zhizhou, your designated hygiene area is the staircase in the outer corridor."
The class monitor was an acquaintance of Chen Jing, so she deliberately left the most difficult part of cleaning, the staircase, to Ye Zhizhou. With people coming and going on the staircase, it was impossible to clean it all at once, and the walls of the stairwell also had to be wiped clean.
Ye Zhizhou was reviewing his studies when he heard that he was to clean the stairs. He didn't object and set off with his textbooks.
Qin Xuan had something to do today and went home first, so she essentially did the work of two people.
"Zhouzhou, we're here!"
Xu Xiaoxiao and her girlfriends, each carrying cleaning tools.
Ye Zhizhou was taken aback. "Don't you guys have to clean up your own classroom?"
Xu Xiaoxiao and she weren't in the same class. Each class had its own cleaning duties, so if Xu Xiaoxiao and her classmates came over, it meant they hadn't finished their own tasks yet.
"It's okay, there are many of us, we'll finish it in no time. You go and study, we'll help you, this little thing will be over soon."
Xu Xiaoxiao came specifically to help Ye Zhizhou. She read every post on the forum and felt indignant on Ye Zhizhou's behalf, as there were always people trying to harm their idol's sister behind his back.
"I'll go with you." Ye Zhizhou didn't have the habit of completely entrusting his affairs to others.
Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't persuade her otherwise, so they had to clean together.
After about ten minutes, Ye Zhizhou finished cleaning and called the sanitation committee member to inspect the work.
"There's still a lot of dust here, and the corners aren't clean. Let's wipe them again."
The health committee member remembered Chen Jing's instructions and began to nitpick.
Xu Xiaoxiao and the others exchanged glances and all felt that the sanitation committee member was doing it on purpose. Several of them had cleaned together, and the dust was old stains that couldn't be wiped off no matter what they did. Wasn't this just making things difficult for them?
Ye Zhizhou wasn't angry; he just watched her nitpick quietly.
"Are you done talking?"
For some reason, the health committee member felt that Ye Zhizhou was looking at her with a bit of fierceness, but she forced herself to say, "I'm done."
"Stop using your glasses. What's the point of glasses if you're blind?" Ye Zhizhou said coldly.
Xu Xiaoxiao and the others felt relieved, thinking that Ye Zhizhou was right.
The health committee member blushed. She had never spoken to Ye Zhizhou directly and had never experienced his prowess.
"This is dirty. Everyone is trying to clean, but some places are still not clean. Are you the only one who is special?" she retorted stubbornly.
Ye Zhizhou curled his lip, about to speak, but someone beat him to it.
“She is special. How could our Dong family’s daughter do such a vulgar thing?”
The Dong family?
Ye Zhizhou frowned and looked up. The newcomer was a middle-aged man who looked a few years older than Ye Huaibin. He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a bespoke suit.
"You, you are the great director Dong Xinhui!"
The health committee member exclaimed in surprise.
