Chapter 151: Chapter 150 A Cunning Old Fox
Xiao Qimo paused for a moment and leisurely set his wine ss on the windowsill.
He nced at the girl next door, a gentle breeze brushing against her cheeks as she focused intently on biting into her burger, waiting for his question.
He really had too many questions he wanted to ask.
He thought that the closer he got to her, the closer he’d get to the truth.
Yet he didn’t realize, the closer he got to her, the more mysteries he found about her.
If he had to pick the one question he wanted to ask the most right now, he felt… it wasn’t necessary.
Some things, he would look into.
Whether he found the answer or not, it all came down to personal skill.
He stored his gentleness and patience deep within his dark eyes, tapping the ss with his fingertip. Along with the pleasant hum of the reverberating ss, he too began to speak.
“Lu Mian, I want to save this opportunity.”
“Save it?”
Lu Mian stopped eating her burger and looked up, a yful nonchnce returning to her eyes.

She couldn’t help but chuckle, “Typical of you.”
An old fox through and through.
Keeping the opportunity for the most critical moment to maximize benefits, if that’s not what a cunning old fox would do.
Xiao Qimo didn’t care about the praise or criticism implied in her words, smiling gently, “I’ll take that as your consent.”
“Fine.” She raised her burger to him.
He responded by tilting his wine ss to her.
The night breeze was so sweet.
——
The next day in ss.
Lu Mian arrived at the ssroom as usual, and her ssmates instinctively gave her a wide berth, staying well away.
She didn’t mind and calmly took her seat.
She pulled out a stack of pretty notebooks from the desk hole, some powder-blue, some powder-purple, some powder-green—the colors all soft, the embodiment of light and fresh.
Fatty Hao and Shouhao turned to sneak a look at her.
Were Lu Mian’s pink notebooks ruined, and she had to rece them with so many others?
Who would have thought, Lu Mian had a pink, girlish heart within her.
Lu Mian was oblivious to their thoughts and pped the stack of notebooks on her desk, “Take these back and copy the notes.”
“Notes? Lu Mian, you never even bring out a textbook during ss, where did you get the notes?”
Lu Mian gave Shouhao a knock on the head with her pen.
“These are from a senior girl that I borrowed from. She’s consistently in the top five of her grade. These notebooks contain knowledge points from the first semester of the first year—pure gold, suitable for your use.”
Fatty Hao and Shouhao were overjoyed.
“Wow! These are treasures!”
“Lu Mian, you even managed to get these kinds of notes!”
The brothers gave her a thumbs-up, finally lifting the gloom they had been under.
In fact, Lu Mian had received these notebooks the day before, but with Yuanyuan’s notebook torn up, she hadn’t had time to deal with these trivial matters.
Fatty Hao idly flipped through the notebooks, his mind suddenly lighting up.
“Lu Mian, does that mean that pink notebook from yesterday was also from that senior? The style is the same, and the covers are all of the same design.”
“Hmm.” Lu Mian replied casually, but then added, “So, you need to take good care of these notes. If even a corner is missing, I will…”
!!!
So that means, the youngdy’s notebooks are very important to Lu Mian!
“Lu Mian, we won’t look at them anymore!”
“Lu Mian, please spare us!”
Notes are precious, but their lives are more important.
They were not fortunate enough to look at such notes!
“Not looking is fine,” Lu Mian said slowly as she started packing them away, “in which case, you are very likely to lose the assistance n.”
She had promised Yuanyuan’s educational goals, so she would relinquish thest ce to her.
“…” Fatty Hao frowned and made a difficult decision, “It seems that not studying is not an option.”
Shouhao tried to reassure him, “So serious? Being third from the bottom isn’t a problem, your dad said as long as it’s notst ce it’s no big deal!”
“But… my dad got promoted to deputy director!”
