"I told her that this is the power of love, so I need to say goodbye to you in love today. My mother also thinks that we are a perfect match, so she agreed without hesitation. It's a pity that I am not yet 18 years old, otherwise I could leave the fruit of our love today, and she will reimburse the room fee."
Han Zhou's mouth twitched as he listened. This guy's nonsense was getting more and more fluent.
However, he felt a little disappointed when he thought that he might not be able to hear this guy's nonsense for a long time.
Of course, the truth was not as exaggerated as Mo Yixia said, but she was able to appear here with Jiang Baiqian's consent, and she was asked to tell Han Zhou that he could visit their home at any time in the future.
Although the last fake robbery incident was a misunderstanding that ended without any harm, it could not erase the fact that Han Zhou "rescued the beauty". Jiang Baiqian's favorability towards Han Zhou had indeed increased significantly. That afternoon, she specially invited him to have a meal to celebrate Mo Yisha's birthday together.
As expected, although no one knew what Jiang Baiqian and her husband talked about that day, she really couldn't stand being deceived. Not only did she reject all of her husband's proposals, she also kicked him out of the house. Mo Yixia stayed as she wished.
Naturally, as Mo Yixia's wish was fulfilled, Han Zhou's activity mission was also completed. The mission reward was to randomly select a skill to strengthen. What made him happy was that this random selection actually suited his wishes. The skill that was strengthened was the "Long-term Illness Becomes a Doctor" which had been considered useless before.
It is no exaggeration to say that all this is thanks to the assistance of Mo Yixia's father. If he hadn't come up with such a fake robbery incident in a fit of rage, I'm afraid the whole thing might not have gone so smoothly.
Han Zhou wondered, "You're doing so well in the exam now, so won't you be able to relax in the future?"
According to Mo Yixia, Jiang Baiqian would never feel satisfied just because her grades improved. Her expectations of her would only get higher and higher, and the pressure exerted on her would also become greater and greater.
This was also the reason why Mo Yixia had been pretending to be a poor student before. Her poor academic performance would lower Jiang Baiqian's expectations of her, so she could still have some spare energy to slack off occasionally. But once she showed amazing progress like she did now, it would not be so easy to be so relaxed anymore.
"Who do you think I'm doing this for?"
Mo Yixia pretended to sigh and said, "There's nothing I can do. If I don't do better in the exam, a useless tutor like you might have been laid off long ago."
After a pause, she continued, "Do you remember what I told you before? I won't let you leave until I figure out why you approached me."
Normally, Mo Yixia should have returned to school a long time ago. High school students rarely have complete winter and summer vacations, so they basically go back to school for tutoring some time in advance. With the performance Mo Yixia had shown before, she certainly could not be exempted from tutoring, but she just did not go.
Seeing that her daughter's test scores were getting higher and higher, Jiang Baiqian realized that her daughter's learning effect at home was much better than that at school, so she called the school to communicate, and only then was Mo Yixia allowed to stay at home and Han Zhou was able to continue to be a tutor.
Therefore, what Mo Yixia said was not an exaggeration. If she had not done better in the exam, she would have returned to school long ago, and Han Zhou would naturally have been laid off as well.
But summer vacation will eventually end. She can ignore the tutoring during the holiday, but she has to go to school during normal school hours. She can't keep Han Zhou any longer.
Besides, this guy also needs to go to school, and the day of separation has finally come.
Han Zhou was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Now do you understand why I approached you?"
"of course."
Mo Yixia's tone was calm, and her meaningful look made Han Zhou's heart skip a beat - this guy's senses were too sharp, could he have really noticed the existence of the status bar?
"It's because you like me after all."
But his worries seemed unnecessary, this guy was still as out of touch as ever and did not guess the truth.
He looked into the girl's eyes and suddenly felt that she might not have noticed anything, but was just too lazy to point it out.
He found that he still didn't know this guy well enough.
"I know you're reluctant, but there's no need to stare at me like that."
Mo Yixia said calmly, "I have asked my mother to transfer the salary to you, and the extra hundred yuan is the maintenance fee."
"I was wondering why there was a hundred more..."
Han Zhou suddenly realized and joked, "But as a maintenance fee, isn't one hundred yuan a little too little?"
A trace of contempt flashed in Mo Yixia's eyes: "Men become bad when they have money. You are bad enough. I can't let you continue to be bad."
"Then you're probably worrying too much. I'm still a long way from becoming 'bad'."
Han Zhou shook his head. He was not rich at all now. He said with emotion, "But to be honest, this salary is not very satisfying. I didn't teach you anything useful. Instead, I spent a lot of time with you doing something else."
"It's really not practical to pick up girls while getting paid." Mo Yixia said calmly, "But do you think being with me is not doing your job properly?"
"I don't think so, but it is so from my perspective as a tutor."
"From today on, you are no longer a tutor, and I am no longer your student. Our relationship should be redefined, and your responsibilities should naturally change accordingly."
"That's right, although you never seem to consider yourself as my student..." Han Zhou muttered, then smiled, "Then what do you think our relationship should be defined as now?"
Mo Yixia pondered for a moment: "The father of the child?"
Han Zhou's face darkened: "I shouldn't have asked..."
"But you asked anyway."
Mo Yixia lowered the brim of her hat and pursed her lips. She didn't actually have much to say, but for some reason, she just wanted to say a few more words to this guy as much as possible.
Why is it necessary to complete three years of high school?
If I had known that summer would be so short, I should have behaved well and skipped a grade to go to the same university with this guy.
It doesn't matter if you're forced to be a little tired, because it becomes easy when you're with this guy.
But there is no "if" in life, and if things had developed like that, I wouldn't have met him in the first place.
Life is really unpredictable, interesting and boring. I wasn’t sure before, but it should be more interesting now.
"this is for you."
Mo Yixia handed the bag to Han Zhou, "It's a parting gift, and it's also a birthday present. I can't find you on your birthday, so it's a little bit delayed, so you can make it."
She had told Han Zhou before that if she could stay here, she would give him another birthday present on his birthday. Unfortunately, she was taken back to her hometown on his birthday and had no chance to see this guy.
"Thank you."
Han Zhou took the bag and asked, "What's in it?"
"Some clothes that have my scent on them, and skirts."
Han Zhou's face darkened and he immediately handed the bag back.
"I lied to you."
Mo Yixia was very satisfied with his reaction and pursed her lips and said, "It's a real... well, it's a real gift. You can accept it with confidence."
Han Zhou said cautiously: "You wanted to say 'normal gift' just now... You suddenly changed your words because you yourself are not sure whether this gift is normal or not..."
His face was full of distrust.
Mo Yi didn't answer. Anyway, the guy had already accepted the thing.
"Are you here with friends?" she suddenly asked, looking at the white car in the distance.
"Ah."
"Really? Then it's almost time for you to go. Don't keep your friends waiting too long. You can come find me anytime if you miss me. Remember to bring your ID."
"I'm not used to your sudden thoughtfulness."
Han Zhou was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said in a softer tone, "But it doesn't matter if you stay a little longer."
"Can't bear to leave me?"
The girl also laughed, her eyebrows curved.
"A little."
“I see…Me too.”
Mo Yixia looked up at the sky, and rarely spoke nonsense.
"I'm talking about Han Zhou."
"Ok?"
"If we're apart for too long, will you forget me?"
"No." Han Zhou said seriously, "My memory is much better than you think."
"Photographic memory" is an enhanced skill from Mo Yixia.
"Do you still remember our secret code?"
"The punctuation mark? Of course I remember it."
"If I write a question mark now, can you guess what I'm thinking?"
Han Zhou's mouth twitched: "How can I guess that?"
"That's right."
Mo Yixia pressed the brim of her hat and said, "Okay, you should go, and I have to go back too."
Although she said this, she did not move and stood there looking at Han Zhou for a long time.
"Ming... No." She shook her head slightly, "It seems that we won't be able to see each other tomorrow, so I'll see you next time."
Han Zhou smiled.
"See you next time."

Chapter 113 All Reserves
When Han Zhou returned to the car with three bottles of water, he felt the atmosphere in the car was quite solemn.
The expressions of Lin Anyu and Gu Zheng were not right. Gu Zheng's expression was even weirder to the extreme. She would steal glances at Lin Anyu from time to time, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Hmm? What happened to these two guys?
Han Zhou was suspicious and was about to sit on the passenger seat when he heard Gu Zheng in the back seat suddenly grit her teeth and say, "Han Zhou, come and sit with me."
Han Zhou was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Gu Zheng tried her best to make her expression look calm and whispered, "I have something to say to you."
Han Zhou was even more puzzled. He looked at Lin Anyu who looked unnatural and asked, "Did you two have a conflict?"
"No, you think too much."
Lin Anyu and Gu Zheng denied it almost in unison, but anyone could see that they were lying.
Han Zhou would be a miracle if he believed it. He frowned and asked, "What's going on with you guys?"
The situation is that I have somehow become Gu Zheng's love rival. For the sake of your butt, you'd better stay away from me...
How could Lin Anyu possibly say such words? He felt very annoyed and turned his face to the window, not knowing how to answer.
Although there was a little misunderstanding, fortunately all the efforts were worth it. The most dangerous stage has passed. As long as Gu Zheng doesn't meet the girl named Mo Yixia, Han Zhou will probably be able to go to school alive and well...
Gu Zheng had no way to explain Lin Anyu's situation, so she just said again: "It's nothing, anyway, come and sit with me."
