Partie 8

That afternoon after school, he waited for her downstairs in her classroom. On the way home, he ambiguously asked her, "Can you get into School A?"

Su Xiaocheng's intelligence quotient has continuously improved with age, sometimes resembling the sensation of having the Ren and Du meridians unblocked, which certainly qualifies him as a half scholar

Isn't he your boyfriend? Xu Rouqing said with a look of certainty

Overall, Su Xiaocheng's performance is steadily improving. Apart from the sciences, she does not need to worry about other subjects. Furthermore, she is aware of her weaknesses and has been making consistent efforts. By the time she reached the second year of junior high, she was appointed as the vice class monitor, a role she has held for a long time.

Su Xiaocheng felt her face flush to the point of bursting while putting on a sanitary pad in the restroom. After finishing, when she saw the obvious stain on her light-colored jeans, her head spun... There were no emergency measures, what was she to do...

Su Xiaocheng's summary of this is, "Having grown up, I have also become more understanding"

As the class was about to start, her deskmate Xu Rouqing nudged her with her arm, "Aren't you leaving yet?"

In this precocious era, Su Xiaocheng did not get her first menstrual period until the second year of junior high school. As soon as it started, she felt something was off, but fortunately, the next class was physical education, and there were not many people in the class.

Could it be that two people want to continue at the same school?

Su Xiaocheng was counting on her fingers how much time was left until noon when school would be over

Su Xiaocheng was taken aback, "What should I ask him to do..."

Xu Rouqing noticed her pale complexion and touched her forehead, "You don't have a fever, but why are you covered in cold sweat? Do you want me to call Qin Zhaoyang over for you?"

Su Xiaocheng was looking down at the road when she heard his words and looked up at him. She accidentally stepped on a watermelon rind next to the trash can and slipped, frightening her so much that she clung to the pole for a long time without letting go

Han Xiaoli attended a parent-teacher meeting at school and, upon returning, gave Su Xiaocheng a thumbs up, saying, "Ten tutors are not as good as one Qin Zhaoyang"

Qin Zhaoyang walked to Su Xiaocheng's desk, glanced at the half-full cup of water on the table, raised his hand and tapped the desk, "Su Xiaocheng."

Suddenly, as he walked in, the originally noisy classroom fell silent. Many who recognized him began to whisper among themselves.

The prince did not express a clear opinion

Qin Zhaoyang reached out to press her shoulder, pushing her back down, then took off his coat and wrapped it around her before pulling her up.

Then ask her if she can pass the exam and what for

Oh. Su Xiaocheng slowly took it, the heat that had spread to her ears was gradually expanding, she felt quite embarrassed, and after putting on her clothes a few times, she was about to stand up

Xu Rouqing silently fell silent, this idiom is used quite harshly

Today, Qin Zhaoyang surprisingly did not scold her. He walked ahead with a blank expression, and only when he had escorted her to her doorstep did he say: "Uncle and Aunt are not home; come to my place for lunch."

This idea seems somewhat insane, Su Xiaocheng thought for a moment and still asked him, "Do you want to take the A exam? Why?"

School A offers a standalone high school education, and both its faculty strength and facilities are somewhat superior to those of First High School

If Su Qiancheng's previous approach to educating Su Xiaocheng could be described as a free-range policy, then starting from the second year of junior high, it has been a strict confinement.

She tugged at the coat and nodded, then suddenly remembered something, turned to look at him, "That... thank you."

By the time the class bell rang, Su Xiaocheng was already slumped over the desk, feeling weak all over, with her stomach cramping intermittently. It wasn't extremely painful, but it was quite uncomfortable.

Qin Zhaoyang used to be indifferent to her well-being, only occasionally offering a word or two when in a good mood. Recently, for some unknown reason, he has suddenly become concerned about her academic performance.

Su Xiaocheng's ears were simply burning hot, her eyes darting around as she dared not look at him, stammering for a long time without managing to utter a single word

Xu Rouqing waved her hand dismissively, "We all know, you don't need to explain. Even Master Mie Jue makes fun of you every day, do you think I'm foolish?" As she said this, she tidied up her things and began to walk out, "Should I call him or not?"

Qin Zhaoyang glanced at her and maliciously left behind two words: "You guess"

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner, and soon it will be time for Qin Zhao Yang to enter high school

Qin Zhaoyang sometimes comes here, but has never stepped into the classroom; he usually waits at the door or at the stairway downstairs

In fact, taking the A exam seems to be the goal of a master like Qin Zhaoyang. Although the teaching at the First High School is advanced, the direct admission policy of the school appropriately lowers the score threshold, resulting in the high school not being the top in City A.

When she returned to the classroom, her complexion had worsened again. The first "gift" from her menstrual period was quite significant, both painful and heavy. Lacking experience, she could only lie on the desk pretending to be dead

Polite to everyone, appearing gentle and easy to get along with, yet upon closer proximity, one finds a sense of detachment and indifference, a feeling strikingly similar to Qin Zhaoyang. Thus, it can be said that spending a long time with a person will indeed subtly transform one into their likeness.

Su Xiaocheng followed behind him, watching his tall figure, feeling puzzled. Does this mean he wants to take the A exam?

Qin Zhaoyang released his hand that was holding her and glanced at her classroom on the second floor. "It's what your deskmate said."

Then, he nodded and fell silent.

Over the years, Su Xiaocheng has been oppressing Cheng Da under the command of Qin Zhaoyang. While unable to deal with him, she remains quite sharp with ordinary people. While flipping through her homework notebook to do her assignments, she replied, "How can we collude if we don't grow up together?"

Xu Rouqing had been observing with the precise gaze of a radar scanner from the side, and at this moment, the corners of her lips curved into a smile that was full of meaning

Qin Zhaoyang knew what the situation was without her needing to answer. He pulled out a coat that she had twisted into a ball and stuffed into her desk, handing it to her, "Put this on first"

As soon as Su Xiaocheng heard the girl's cold intake of breath, he knew—this was it, this matter could no longer be explained clearly

She turned around briskly, closed the door, and gritted her teeth in anger

When it comes to the second year of junior high, it is essential to mention a very significant figure—Aunt Flo

In recent years, Qin Zhaoyang has grown rapidly, and she is still trailing behind him by a considerable margin. Not to mention that he was already tall enough to sit in the back row in the third year of junior high; at this moment, standing among this group of second-year students, he is even more conspicuous.

Qin Zhaoyang's academic performance has always been among the best, unmatched by anyone. Therefore, not long after the start of the second semester of the third year of junior high school, he was awarded a direct promotion quota by the school

Xu Rouqing was worried about her, so during the free activity period of the physical education class, she came back to check on her, poured her a cup of hot water, and then went back out

Su Xiaocheng had not yet reacted, feeling that his fingertips were somewhat warm as he pinched her chin. "Where to?"

The Qin Zhao family has always had a cook named Sister Zhang, so they do not worry about having no one to prepare meals. However, Su Xiaocheng is different; when her mother is not at home, she can only rely on instant noodles.

Su Xiaocheng was taken downstairs by Qin Zhaoyang, and only then did she shyly ask him, "How did you know I... that I... had arrived..."

Su Xiaocheng was completely stunned, unable to utter a single word, and finally, in great indignation, said, "Who said that... we have only known each other since childhood"

When Qin Zhaoyang finished class, he came over, and Xu Rouqing waved to him from the doorway of the classroom. He walked over and casually handed her the homework notebook in his hand, saying, "Here is the homework notebook for your extinction, and by the way, please help me and Su Xiaocheng to ask for leave for the last class."

Although her personality is still somewhat muddled and occasionally silly, in the eyes of outsiders, she has transformed significantly, making it impossible to connect her with the girl she was in elementary school

As Su Xiaocheng stood up, a wave of dizziness washed over her, and she tugged heavily at Qin Zhaoyang's sleeve

Su Xiaocheng turned her head to follow his gaze and felt her previously strong legs go weak again... Do we really need to be so gossipy and gather around? The corridor is already too crowded.

Qin Zhaoyang tilted her chin and looked around, "Let's go"

Su Xiaocheng thought for a moment and nodded, "It should be fine."

However, an unexpected event that night made Su Xiaocheng suddenly understand

Qin Zhaoyang decisively reached out to wrap his arm around her shoulder and pulled her closer to him, the posture... it was as if he was half-embracing her in his arms

The prince ignored her and walked straight ahead. When she finally caught up, panting, she asked again.

In the past two years, Su Qiancheng was worried that Su Xiaocheng's personality was too carefree. However, in these two years, he has occasionally imposed some restrictions, and she has also changed quite a bit on her own

Hmm? She lifted her head, her bangs in disarray.

Su Xiaocheng: "... ..." This is the true normal Qin Zhaoyang

Xu Rouqing watched her approach, squinted her eyes, and teasingly said, "I wonder who said this morning that the two of them just grew up together..."

When Su Xiaocheng returned to school in the afternoon, she indeed felt that the gazes around her were somewhat unusual

Su Xiaocheng thought it was so embarrassing that she didn't want Qin Zhaoyang to know, so she quickly shook her head. Then she suddenly remembered something, "Um... did you bring any sanitary pads?"

"Where else can you go like this?" He released his hand, was about to pull her up, but paused again, and asked her softly, "Is it convenient?"

The Su family is also a prominent family, and whether it is the current developments concerning Su Qiancheng or the family behind him, Su Xiaocheng can certainly be regarded as a distinguished young lady.

After Su Xiaocheng attempted to slack off and pass through by pretending, he was made to answer several questions by Qin Zhaoyang and then obediently started to memorize. This turned out to be quite useful; although his mathematics grades were not among the top, they were at least in the upper-middle range.

She did not dare to stand up, sitting in her seat with a flushed face, feeling extremely embarrassed

After he finished his instructions, he walked straight into the classroom

The prince was about to leave, but upon hearing this, he paused for a moment and raised a smile that Su Xiaocheng found particularly familiar, saying, "You're welcome, it's rare that you've finally gotten your period."

Su Xiaocheng was scratching the book with her fingers, her face somewhat pale, "Please help me request a leave of absence."

Su Qiancheng expressed his jealousy, and that night he ate half a bowl less of rice.

If Xu Rouqing had not met Su Xiaocheng since the first year of middle school, she probably would not have dared to believe in this change of hers
