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

Liu Xiaoyu shyly smiled again and began seriously explaining the questions to Zhou Chengchen.

Zhou Chengchen noticed that many of Liu Xiaoyu’s explanations were very similar to Xi Siyan’s. They were methods and approaches used by competition students. Although some methods differed, his explanations were simple and clear, making them easy to accept.

Gradually, Zhou Chengchen almost never went to Xi Siyan with questions anymore, even rarely texting or calling him. In exchange, Zhou Chengchen helped Liu Xiaoyu with English, but as for Chinese, that was hard to say—it’s not something that could be mastered overnight.

The relationship between the two gradually improved, but Liu Xiaoyu still showed an admiring attitude towards Xi Siyan, which made Zhou Chengchen think he might actually be interested in boys.

"Liu Xiaoyu, why do you admire Xi Siyan so much? Just because he’s a top student?"

After spending over a month together, Zhou Chengchen finally asked the question.

When Xi Siyan was mentioned, Liu Xiaoyu’s eyes lit up again, and he looked ahead with great longing: "He’s amazing. Back in middle school, no matter the exam, no matter how difficult the questions were, he could solve them right away. Whether it was a small test or a major exam, his math never lost more than five points. Later, we participated in a robotics competition together, and he managed to solve many difficult problems."

As Liu Xiaoyu spoke, the longing and admiration in his eyes grew deeper. Zhou Chengchen actually couldn’t quite understand it, much like she also thought Xi Siyan was impressive but couldn’t grasp how Liu Xiaoyu could develop such a strong sense of admiration for someone based on these reasons.

Is this just the difference between men and women?

Zhou Chengchen couldn’t understand, but it didn’t matter. Regardless of whether Liu Xiaoyu had a crush on men, her Xi Siyan was definitely straight.

Before they knew it, midterm exams were approaching. Although it was somewhat difficult to catch up after the unsatisfactory results in the last comprehensive science exam, Zhou Chengchen still seriously prepared for the tests.

Without disappointing herself, she remained firmly in the top position in the class.

On the day she received her results, it was Saturday. Since the beginning of this semester, there had been classes on Saturdays. Just before school ended, Zhou Chengchen sent Xi Siyan a message inviting him to dinner together.

Unexpectedly, Xi Siyan quickly replied: [I’m going home.]

Without giving it much thought, Zhou Chengchen casually replied: [Then let’s eat at your place, I’m craving your homemade food.]

This time, there was no further response from Xi Siyan, but Zhou Chengchen didn’t mind too much.

In the competition class, Xi Siyan leaned back in his chair, looking at the text message on his phone, his expression a bit cold. He was usually aloof, but now he seemed even colder.

Zhou Qi came in from outside with a glass of water and noticed Xi Siyan’s demeanor, unreservedly teasing him: "Tsk tsk, look at that icy expression. What happened? Did you get snubbed by my sister again?"

During this period, others might not know, but Zhou Qi was very aware that Xi Siyan had tried countless times to help Zhou Chengchen with questions, only to be refused every time. Once, they went to see her together, and just happened to catch Zhou Chengchen and Liu Xiaoyu talking about something, their relationship seemed quite good.

If Zhou Qi hadn’t subtly asked Zhou Chengchen about her view of Liu Xiaoyu, he would have almost suspected whether his sister had developed feelings for someone else.

After all, someone who used to be so clingy with Xi Siyan was now suddenly hanging around another guy.
