Chu Qing grinned and suddenly jumped onto him. Qi Weichen instinctively caught her, and then she kissed him. His expression softened, and all his anger dissipated. He had intended to teach her a lesson, but now he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Holding her, he closed the front door and made their way to the bedroom. After a long kiss, Chu Qing rolled around on his large bed and asked lazily, "Not angry anymore?"

"You knew I was angry?" Qi Weichen asked in return.

Chu Qing snorted lightly. "I didn't know at first, but when you ignored me today, I figured it out. You're so petty. I just played on my phone a bit more recently and needed to catch up on sleep during the day. Is that worth getting angry over?"

"If I kept giving you the cold shoulder, wouldn't you get angry?" Qi Weichen said this, but he was playing with a lock of her hair, not looking angry at all.

Chu Qing closed her eyes and smiled. "I know I was wrong. From now on, I'll come to your house to nap during the day. That way, I can keep you company and still play games at night."

"Can't you just have a healthier sleep schedule?" Qi Weichen sighed.

Chu Qing hugged him. "They're all night owls. No one plays with me during the day, so I have to accommodate them."

Qi Weichen was silent for a long time. "I'll keep you company from now on."

Chu Qing opened her eyes. "Really?"

"Mm." Qi Weichen's gaze was soft.

Chu Qing's eyes lit up. "Great! You're so smart, you must be really good at games too!" Saying this, she no longer felt sleepy and began to teach Qi Weichen how to play games. Qi Weichen obligingly lay down next to her.

In Chu Qing's eyes, Qi Weichen was capable of anything. Even with completely new things, he could quickly pick them up. However, she never expected him to be so... terrible at playing video games.

After teaching him for an entire afternoon, he had memorized what everything was and its attributes. He could instantly judge which weapon to use at what time. Yet it was all just theoretical - his hands couldn't keep up with his brain, and he always ended up being the one getting killed.

Chu Qing was utterly defeated by him: "Now I know who Qi Muyang takes after with his poor gaming skills."

"Give me some time, I'll learn it quickly," Qi Weichen said, pressing his lips together.

Chu Qing didn't want to teach him anymore, but she couldn't refuse his persistence. So she had to continue teaching him. As a result, she didn't get to nap during the day. When she got home and finished dinner, she went straight to bed. Surprisingly, she woke up at 8 AM the next day. The first thing she did after getting up was to find Qi Weichen, and they started playing games again.

After several days of Chu Qing's patient guidance, Qi Weichen finally stopped dying right at the start of the game. However, Chu Qing had completely lost interest in playing games and only wanted to do something else with him.

As long as her attention was on him, Qi Weichen was willing to do anything and naturally complied. After the couple spent some time being lovey-dovey, the exam results finally came out.

On the day of checking the scores, Chu Qing was at home with her parents, sitting in front of the computer. Her father was nervously comforting her while watching her input the information: "It's okay, whatever score you get is fine. Mom and Dad know you tried your best. No matter what, you're still our precious daughter..."

"You're so nervous yourself, don't say it doesn't matter," her mother glared at him.

Her father swallowed and fell silent. The couple stared intently at the screen. When the score page refreshed, they both froze.
