Chapter 191 - 191: Predicting the Future
Yuan Xiao did not understand what Fang Yao meant. She looked at him in confusion as he slowly straightened his collar and pointed at the small red heart she had drawn last night.
Yuan Xiao felt that her face must be even redder than her heart because she could already feel her body temperature rising by a few degrees.
“Hurry up and help me move the books. We should go back.” Yuan Xiao changed the topic and walked towards the bookshelf like she was escaping.
Fang Yao stopped teasing her and quickly followed Yuan Xiao, helping her with the books. As he helped Yuan Xiao put the books back, he asked curiously,
“Xiao Xiao, these books are all scientific research and information technology. They have nothing to do with the college entrance examination. Why are you spending so much time reading them?”
“Teacher Lu Liu helped me sign up for a science and technology research competition. I’m preparing for the research topic.” Yuan Xiao was still placing books on the bookshelf and did not notice Fang Yao’s disappointment. The two of them put away all their books and walked out of the library together.
“There’s still a bus now. Let’s take the bus back together. However, you still have to transfer to another bus. Why don’t you take a taxi back?”
“I’ll go with you.”
Yuan Xiao did not refuse. She was very happy to spend more time with Fang
Yao.
The two of them walked side by side to the bus stop. Yuan Xiao finally noticed the silent Fang Yao.
“What’s wrong, Young Master Fang? Is there any stress from studying?” Yuan Xiao turned her head slightly and looked into Fang Yao’s eyes. She felt that he seemed to have something on his mind.
“It’s not pressure from studying.” Fang Yao rubbed Yuan Xiao’s hair and decided to say his thoughts. “I just think you’re too outstanding. I’m worried that I won’t be able to catch up to you.”
Yuan Xiao did not expect Fang Yao to have such thoughts. She smiled and said, “Didn’t you say that I placed my heart with you? What’s there to worry about?
How far can a person run without a heart?”
Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao’s blurry outline because of the dim yellow street lamp and hugged her tightly. “No matter where you run, I’ll chase you back.”
Yuan Xiao spent five days in the library. When she finally finished reading the last book, she almost jumped up in excitement.
[Congratulations, host. The special challenge mission has been successfully completed! Your knowledge reserves have reached the highest value!]
Yuan Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the familiar electronic voice.
[Moreover, the host completed the mission in advance within the specified time! Other than the lucky draw opportunity, you can obtain an additional reward!]
Yuan Xiao walked out of the library and silently asked Little 7 what the rewards were.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining an ability to predict the future!]
“Predicting the future sounds quite impressive. What exactly does it mean?” Yuan Xiao put on her earphones and deliberately pretended to be on the phone as she stood and waited for the bus.
[Host, you can predict everything that happens to a certain person in the next three days. However, you only have one chance. You have to use it carefully!]
This was the first time Yuan Xiao had obtained such a magical ability. She suddenly felt that her efforts over the past few days had not been in vain. However, she had to use this ability carefully. It might be very useful in the future.
When the bus arrived at the platform, Yuan Xiao looked at the time after getting on. It was not long before school would end. Yuan Xiao decided to go to her parents’ restaurant to take a look.
After arriving at her destination, Yuan Xiao walked along the road and quickly arrived at the restaurant.
There were many guests in the restaurant. There were also a few guests sitting on chairs outside the door, as if they were waiting for seats.
Because they had hired many waiters, the shop was quite busy. Shen Hai was afraid that Feng Mei would work too hard, so he specially hired a chef with a high salary. With Feng Mei’s help, the new chef quickly mastered Feng Mei’s cooking characteristics and could make special dishes very well.
Yuan Xiao looked at the busy waiters in the shop. She did not go to the kitchen to look for Shen Hai and Feng Mei. Instead, she found a single seat in the corner and sat down.
Because there were very few people who came to the restaurant to eat alone, such uncomfortable single seats usually would not be filled.
Yuan Xiao sat in her seat for about two minutes before a waiter walked over with a menu.
“Hello, this is the menu. What do you want to order?” The waitress was a young girl who should have been newly hired. Yuan Xiao had never seen her before.
“One serving of fried rice. No chili or green onions. Less salt.” Yuan Xiao deliberately made it more complicated. She raised her head and observed the girl’s reaction..
