When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

When it comes to studying, Zhou Chengchen has never been goal-oriented. Although she’s always been nagging about her brother since she was young, she has to admit that Zhou Qi’s intelligence is indeed extraordinary. She’s also smart, but more like clever. Comparing the two, there is a gap.

Zhou Chengchen is well aware that her grades won’t be bad, but not outstanding either. Among average students, she can be considered excellent, but compared to Xi Siyan and Zhou Qi, she’s not on the same level.

Moreover, she has no interest in putting in a hundred and twenty percent effort into this.

As long as the grades are decent, that’s enough.

But now, Zhou Chengchen has a goal. She wants to catch up with Xi Siyan. If he’s first in class, then she wants to be second. Otherwise, if the teacher impulsively decides to change seats again, wouldn’t she be miserable?

These grades aren’t a challenge for Zhou Chengchen, but marks are ultimately unpredictable and depend on luck, so she did put in a bit more thought.

In the second semester of the first year, various exams increased significantly, mainly to give the school and the students themselves the clearest judgment when separating into science and liberal arts streams.

Zhou Chengchen’s grades are consistently stable, with no particular strength in either science or arts, and no weaknesses. But she’s determined that it has to be science. Even if she can’t get into the competition class with Xi Siyan, she doesn’t want to study subjects in the arts that have nothing to do with him.

Before you know it, the semester is halfway through, and the midterms are over. Zhou Chengchen still holds her position as second, with Xi Siyan first.

At this time, the attention on Xi Siyan in the class has noticeably increased, but no one dares to seriously pursue or fawn over him.

It’s the aftermath of the Chen Youran incident.

Although the incident ended with Chen Youran’s apology and Zhou Chengchen’s victory, somehow rumors started spreading.

The rumor says that the reason Chen Youran and Zhou Chengchen got involved was because of Xi Siyan, and that the two girls were fighting over one guy, resulting in Chen Youran’s defeat.

Once this rumor was out, even those who genuinely liked Xi Siyan dared not do anything, as Zhou Chengchen is not someone they could afford to offend.

Zhou Chengchen has heard these things, but she doesn’t care. People can think whatever they want; she won’t pay attention to it.

When Xiao Rou gossiped with her and saw Zhou Chengchen’s absent-minded look, she sighed, "Cheng Chen, I feel like, in your eyes, everyone in the class except for your Xi Siyan is just cabbage and radishes?"

Zhou Chengchen shook her head, "No, besides him, I see everyone as air. Oh, you’re not. You’re cabbage and radishes."

Xiao Rou: "..."

As Zhou Chengchen said this, she was already laughing uncontrollably. Xiao Rou glared at her angrily, and then they both laughed.

"Cheng Chen, are you two dating now then?"

Xiao Rou couldn’t help but ask in the end, and Zhou Chengchen shook her head calmly, "No, what’s dating? Early romance isn’t right, you know?"

Make it up, keep making it up.

Xiao Rou sneered.

Zhou Chengchen remained calm. She had thought about it before, but then she realized these things aren’t important. Xi Siyan said he wants a future, their future.

So this is great as it is now. He’s good to her, and she doesn’t distract him. They move forward together. When the college entrance exam is over, they can have a romance, and then they’ll have a better future.

Once worried about vacations, seating, and class separation, all the uncertainties have been completely resolved by him. This is already the best.
