BXBX NOVEL Chapter 229 - 229: Serious Problem
Despite Qin Ruohan’s comment, Ye Caitang could not help but fidget again. Qin Ruohan ordered in a hoarse voice,
“No more fidgeting.”
A deep and charming voice rang from above her head. Ye Caitang hurriedly stayed still like a statue.
Qin Ruohan lowered his head and glanced at Ye Caitang’s furrowed brows. “What are you worried about?” He asked as he acutely sensed Ye Caitang’s uneasiness.
Ye Caitang hesitated for a moment and parted her red lips silently:
“I’m worried about my studies.”
She could not tell Qin Ruohan the truth, so she told him a half-truth.
“The school’s term test is in 10 days. My hands are injured, so I can’t go to school.”
“I’m afraid that my results for the term test will not be good.”
“You will be afraid that your results won’t be good?” Qin Ruohan smiled faintly. “I remember that you scored zero in all the subjects in the past. No matter how bad your results are, you will—at most—score zero again.”
When Ye Caitang heard Qin Ruohan’s teasing, she immediately rolled her eyes at him.
She looked at Qin Ruohan solemnly and explained in all seriousness:
“In the past, I was alone. I was the one who lost face. Now, I’m your wife. If I score another big fat zero, you’ll lose face.”
Qin Ruohan:
Ye Caitang looked at Qin Ruohan’s speechless expression and could not help but smile.
“How about this? Find me a tutor and then, I’ll be able to take the term test in
10 days and set the world on fire.”
“Are you sure it’s useful to find a tutor?” Qin Ruohan frowned slightly and glanced at Ye Caitang suspiciously.
Wasn’t it a little too late for someone who scored zero since their first year of high school to only think about studying hard in the second half of their third year?
Ye Caitang hurriedly nodded.
“Of course it’s useful.”
She pretended to be nonchalant as she mouthed silently:
“I heard that Qin Jiuye was the national top scorer of the previous National College Entrance Examination. Can you ask Qin Jiuye to tutor me?”
“You want Qin Jiuye to tutor you?” As Qin Ruohan looked at Ye Caitang expressionlessly, he felt inexplicably frustrated.
“Yup.” Ye Caitang nodded solemnly.
“Qin Jiuye is a genius, and I really admire him.”
“I think if he tutors me, I’ll definitely be able to set the world on fire and not embarrass you.”
Qin Ruohan’s handsome face suddenly turned cold. “..
Admire Qin Jiuye? He had already obtained a double doctorate in economics and finance before he was 18 years old. Why didn’t she admire him?
Ye Caitang did not notice Qin Ruohan’s cold expression and mouthed solemnly:
“I’m quite nervous about my studies. It’s best if you can get Qin Jiuye here today to tutor me.”
Qin Ruohan—brimming with jealousy—said coldly,
“It’s useless even if I get him. Can you write with your hands?”
“I can’t write, but I can listen,” Ye Caitang hurriedly explained.
“I’m very smart. Even if I can’t write, I can learn after listening.”
Qin Ruohan glanced at Ye Caitang coldly and concluded domineeringly,
“You still can’t write with your hand 10 days later. You’ll have to miss this term test.”
Hmph! How could his woman admire another man?
She still wanted him to send the man she admired to her?
Dream on!
Ye Caitang:
She just wanted to help QinJiuye. Why was it so difficult?
After a moment of silence, Ye Caitang suddenly thought of a serious problem.
If she could not sit for the term test as scheduled, what would happen to her bet with her classmates?
