Chapter 212 Confidence

Chapter 212 Confidence
In the morning, the sky is bright.

Yang Zhi pressed the switch of the desk lamp twice, and the light changed to orange, giving the cold room a warm tone.

The room was not cold. Yang Zhi turned the electric blanket to the lowest setting. The hot water bottle in the quilt still retained warmth after a night of settling.

He pulled out the warm little clothes from the quilt, put them inside and prepared to put them on.

Yang Zhi lowered her head. Through the thin clothes, she couldn't see any bulge, even if she was not wearing anything underneath.

She was supposed to be welcoming a beautiful day, but this made her feel a little listless.

Pulling up the hems of her autumn trousers, her legs looked exceptionally even and slender even though they were wearing tight and thick fleece pants, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Xu Mingyuan had a pair of eyes that were good at discovering beauty. He often glanced at her long legs, which gave Xiao Yangzhi extra confidence.

I opened the door and went to the kitchen first.

Just when I was about to boil water to wash my face, I suddenly heard an alarm coming from a room not far away.

Yang Zhi was stunned, grabbed his hair in annoyance, and quickly ran over.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan had gotten up, Yang Zhi said apologetically, "Brother, I have an exam today, so I don't need to get up so early. Sorry, I forgot to tell you."

"Oh, you have your final exam. I don't blame you. You said that two days ago. By the way, the exam is at nine o'clock, right? It's not too late to leave home at 8:30. Why did you get up so early?"

"I'm used to this time, so I woke up naturally. Brother, what do you want to eat in the morning?"

"Then don't worry about eating. If you are hungry, just eat something. Let me take a nap."

Xu Mingyuan yawned. He had set the alarm for 5:50, but he was too sleepy to open his eyes. When he saw Xiao Yangzhi turned off the alarm, he lay down again.

"Brother, I also want to take a nap..." Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

"Then go. Do you need to tell me this?"

Xu Mingyuan was a little impatient, but before he could finish his words, a cool breeze blew through the quilt, and Xiao Yangzhi, whose clothes were cold, came in.

Xu Mingyuan was slightly stunned. He turned his head and saw Xiao Yangzhi pulling the quilt to cover her eyes. He didn't pay any more attention to her.

Having seized this rare opportunity, Yang Zhi hid her face, concealing her happiness.

Yang Zhi was not sleepy at all now and was waiting for him to fall asleep.

Soon, Xu Mingyuan's breathing became steady.

At this time, Yang Zhi carefully stretched out her hand and wanted to place it on his chest.

But unexpectedly, the dazed Xu Mingyuan walked through her arms and hugged her tightly.

Yang Zhi's breath was choked, her face pressed against his broad chest, her heart beating wildly in her chest, she didn't even dare to breathe.

It took a long time before I finally calmed down.

At this time, Yang Zhi carefully bent her knees, put her calves on it, and closed her eyes with a blushing face.

Originally, I didn't want to take a nap, but now it seems that I have to. The satisfied little Yangzhi thought about it for a long time, and finally forced himself to fall asleep...

Xu Mingyuan was not surprised to see someone in his arms, but the soft and slender touch brought him back to his senses. It was obviously not Tao Shuxin.

He suddenly opened his eyes and found that it was Xiao Yangzhi with a peaceful look on her face. Xu Mingyuan quickly withdrew his hand.

"Get up, it's almost eight o'clock, get ready and go eat."

Xu Mingyuan patted her shoulder, lifted the quilt and jumped up.

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi rubbed his eyes, looking sleepy, and climbed up reluctantly.

However, with her rosy cheeks, she looks energetic and in great shape.

Today's nap was a great experience and Yang Zhi is full of confidence in today's exam.

While the two were having dinner, Tao Shuxin called.

After the call was connected, a question came: "Hey! Why didn't you come to deliver breakfast today?"

"Xiao Yangzhi has a final exam today, I can get up later."

When he went to Tao Shuxin's house for the third time, the little girl was still nervous and hurried to pull him in.

When he came to the house for the fourth and fifth time, Tao Shuxin hid herself from Xu Mingyuan with a smile, treating it as a fun thing.

"Well, so you were here to send your sister to school, and not to bring me breakfast!" Tao Shuxin complained tearfully.

"No, I came to bring you breakfast and to send Xiao Yangzhi to school." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"You're just talking nonsense, do you think I will believe it?"

"Hey, there are so many people going to work or school in the morning, so it's not dangerous. If it weren't for you, I would have asked Xiao Yangzhi to take a taxi to No. 3 Middle School."

"Really?" Tao Shuxin asked suspiciously.

"Really." Xu Mingyuan said with certainty.

"Hmph, come on, are you kidding me?"

"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. I'll come to you later. Remember to open the door." After Xu Mingyuan said that, he hung up the phone.

Seeing Xiao Yangzhi's twisted face, Xu Mingyuan asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Brother, are you serious? Why don't you just stay at home? I can actually take a taxi and leave by myself. It's okay..."

Yang Zhi was stirring the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, looking aggrieved.

"Hey, you little heartless girl, when have I not sent you to school when I came back?" Xu Mingyuan pinched her cheek and pulled it, saying, "Hurry up and eat yours."

"Then...Brother, are you lying to Sister Taotao?"

"Tsk, how can this be called cheating? This is called a white lie."

Xu Mingyuan was unhappy on the spot because it was because of Tao Shuxin. He hadn't been to Jiangcheng for several days and had been playing around with her all day.

"Brother, isn't it bad to lie?"

Yang Zhi frowned and spoke cautiously.

In her heart, she still hoped that her brother could tell Tao Shuxin the truth...

"What do you know? Little girls need to be coaxed. If they are happy, I can worry less. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

"Brother, have you ever lied to me?"

"Lie to you?" Xu Mingyuan thought for a while before saying, "I haven't lied to you before. Besides, why would I lie to you?"

"Thank you, brother. If you don't want to say something in the future, you don't have to say it. You don't have to lie to me..."

Yang Zhi lowered his head and sipped the porridge.

"Hurry up and eat your meal. If you dawdle any longer, you won't be able to enter the examination room."

Xu Mingyuan nodded her little head and urged her helplessly.

Yang Zhi is very punctual. For someone like her who prefers to mind her own business, the thing she fears most is being late for school, not to mention the final exams.

But when Yang Zhi heard that her brother was going to see Tao Shuxin, she wanted to linger for a while, so that her brother could spend more time with her and less time with Tao Shuxin.

By the time we arrived at the school gate, it was already 8:55.

I heard from my brother that he would take me to lunch at noon. If I left the examination room early, plus the round trip, he would only be able to stay with Tao Shuxin for an hour at most...

"The timing is perfect. We are here on time. Let's go."

Xu Mingyuan had no idea of ​​Xiao Yangzhi's little thoughts. He thought he had delayed her and was afraid that she would be anxious, so he stepped on the accelerator a little faster.

"Brother, can you pick me up after I finish my exam?"

"sure."

"Brother, if I leave the exam room early, can I call you?"

"You're so promising that you actually thought of handing in the paper early, haha. If you feel there is no problem with the answers after you finish answering them, you can hand in the paper, but you can't do poorly on the test." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Yeah, bro, bye."

Yang Zhi waved her hand and quickly ran into the school carrying her small bag.

Wearing a mask, he hurriedly found his exam room and saw that all his classmates were seated and the teacher had started handing out papers. Yang Zhi panicked and quickly called out in a low voice.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the invigilator waving for her to come in.

The students in the first examination room were all top students in the grade. The invigilator would not make things difficult for them. Even though Yang Zhi was late, she was still allowed to come in and answer the questions.

On Xu Mingyuan's side, he finally brought a portion of potato pancakes to the hungry Tao Shuxin.

"If you come a little later, I can have lunch!"

Tao Shuxin had a resentful look in her eyes, and she had to stare at Xu Mingyuan until he blushed.

Ever since Xu Mingyuan brought her food, she no longer ate the millet porridge left at home in the morning. And because she had just returned home from vacation, her mother didn't pay much attention to her and didn't even cook for her.

Now what she looks forward to most every day is the potato pancakes that Xu Mingyuan brings her. If he doesn't bring her food, she is unwilling to leave her warm bed early in the morning and will have to go hungry.

"Yes, so I brought you less so that you can save some for lunch." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

In fact, he wanted to buy more breakfast, but it was past nine o'clock and all the breakfast was sold out. The only things left were freshly made potato pancakes.

"Fuck, you want to starve me to death, don't you?"

Seeing that Xu Mingyuan only brought a palm-sized potato pancake, Tao Shuxin opened her mouth with shock on her face.

In order to punish Xu Mingyuan, he will definitely not be allowed to do anything today!

However, Tao Shuxin acted like a spoiled brat for a while, taking small bites of the hard-earned potato pancake, and before she finished eating, she couldn't help but make moves on him.

This caused Xu Mingyuan to step back repeatedly, fearing that the oil from her fingers and lips would rub against him.

Clothes are hard to wash in winter, and Xiao Yangzhi loves cleanliness. As soon as he sees stains on his clothes, he will definitely wash them several times...
