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

Zhou Qi followed behind Zhou Chengchen not far away, now looking at what Xi Siyan was holding and teasing mercilessly.

Then he moved a step closer: "I say, Xi Siyan, what kind of love potion did you give my sister? She stared blankly all night when she got back yesterday, and was giggling all the way here. Man, I’ve never seen her so silly before."

Xi Siyan had returned to normal and didn’t pay attention to Zhou Qi’s teasing, handing the things in his hand over to Zhou Qi: "Want some?"

"Yeah, of course!"

The two teenagers slowly walked towards the school, one exuding a mature demeanor, while the other was full of youthful energy.

Because of a kiss, Zhou Chengchen avoided Xi Siyan for three whole days. She didn’t know what she was doing. Clearly, this was something she had once fantasized about, but now that it had actually happened, Zhou Chengchen didn’t dare to face him.

Wanting to see him, yet not daring to see him, this restless feeling was truly unbearable.

Over the weekend, Zhou Chengchen woke up and lay on her bed browsing her phone, there was an unread message from Xi Siyan saying "Goodnight."

It had been like this for a few days, although they hadn’t met, they still texted. Zhou Chengchen flipped through the chat logs and buried herself in the pillow again.

What’s wrong with her?

This wasn’t like her. According to Zhou Chengchen’s imagination, the kiss between them should have been initiated by her, after all, he was a big iceberg.

Even if Xi Siyan took the initiative, she should have confidently kissed him back, because, well, reciprocation is courtesy.

But why did she hide?

Sigh... sigh... sigh...

After three sighs in a row, Zhou Chengchen slowly got out of bed, washed up, and went downstairs.

The living room was empty, Zhou Chengchen looked around and asked, "Where are my parents?"

"Sir and Madam went out, they said they’d be back later today."

Just as the housekeeper was saying this, Zhou Chengchen heard someone yawning behind her. She turned around to see Zhou Qi coming downstairs with messy hair, looking half asleep.

"Wow, bro, are you trying to cosplay as a bird’s nest? So considerate towards small animals, huh?"

"Get lost!"

Zhou Qi scratched his head, yawned again, and continued walking down.

The siblings sat at the dining table for breakfast. Zhou Qi seemed to be waking up, munching on bread while asking, "Are you going out today?"

Zhou Chengchen shook her head, Zhou Qi squinted: "Oh, not going to see that Xi Siyan kid?"

Zhou Chengchen choked on her milk, then glared at him.

Zhou Qi burst into laughter: "I just mentioned a name, why are you so worked up?"

Zhou Chengchen rolled her eyes at him, saying nothing.

Zhou Qi leaned in again: "But seriously, what’s going on between you two? You seem out of it these past few days, and that guy too, he’s been quite distracted, his efficiency in solving problems, tsk-tsk..."

Those words finally made Zhou Chengchen look at him properly. Has Xi Siyan been affected too?

His problem-solving efficiency has been impacted?

Zhou Chengchen didn’t quite understand why Xi Siyan, who obviously had great grades and no particular weak subjects, insisted on taking the competition route.

But she could feel that Xi Siyan truly valued competitions; the effort he put into them was something Zhou Chengchen knew far more about than others did.

If possible, Xi Siyan would spend all his waking and eating hours working on problems, that kind of seriousness and focus was simply incomparable to her lazy brother.
