Chapter 89 - A Girl's Thoughts

"What's with the kid? Why is her face so red? Does she have a fever?" Mother Chen looked weirdly at her daughter.

"No-no, the house is too hot!" Chen Weier hurriedly explained. Then she though, I have to calm myself down quickly, and hopefully he doesn't notice anything!

"Really? I actually feel it's a bit cold! Then I'll get your older brother to add some firewood?" Mother Chen asked.

"No need, I'm fine! Don't let dad catch a cold," Chen Weier shook her hands and said. Actually she wasn't hot at all.

With my help, a table of luxurious dinner was prepared. Even Mother Chen kept on praising my culinary skills, and urged Chen Yong to learn from me in the future.

Chen Yong grimaced at the side, and didn't feel like he really should say anything. I suppose if I wasn't their family's savior, then he would have started getting mad at me already.

At the dinner table, although I was treated like a VIP, I ate in low spirits. Nobody really had anything to talk about, the conversations between Chen Weier and I or Chen Yong and I could not be said in front of Mother and Father Chen, so that's why Mother Chen was the sole person speaking the entire dinner, and it mostly consisted of expression her thanks towards me, and encouragement to study hard etc.

After dinner, I saw that it was getting late. I stood up and said my farewells to Mother Chen. Since Father Chen had to rest earlier, Mother Chen didn't ask me to stay longer.

When I was going out, I gave a hint to Chen Yong, the brat understood quite quickly and immediately said, "Weier, there are a lot of small alleyways near our home, go and send Liu Lei off so he doesn't get lost!"

"Oh, okay," Chen Weier put on her down jacket and followed me out of the door.

The moon portrayed our shadows onto the small road, Chen Weier walked shoulder to shoulder with me on my left side. There were very little people on the road at night, so Chen Weier didn't avoid anything.

"The revision questions you picked for me last time were really effective, I got 10 marks more in the monthly test than I did last time," Chen Weier picked a topic and started speaking.

"10 marks more? How is the second place in your year supposed to live!" I exclaimed.

"Hehe, I just got twenty marks more than him, but he won't ever be able to catch up before graduation," Chen Weier said with a hint of pride and playfulness.

Just twenty something marks? Fourth high really was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, the scores on the leaderboard of top students in each class were very close, yet Chen Weier actually pulled ahead by twenty something marks.

"A certain someone got 33 marks higher than the second place!" Chen Weier suddenly turned around and said mischievously to me.

"I... guessed it. How did you know?" I was reborn, and thus naturally belonged to the exceptions. Chen Weier seemed to be very interested in me though.

"Heh, why wouldn't I know, I also know the one in the second place is your girlfriend!" Chen Weier said.

"You can't be someone sent by the enemy organization to investigate me right?" I pretended to be puzzled and said.

"Go die, who has the time to investigate you!" Chen Weier said.

"Weier...!" I suddenly stopped my footsteps and called out to her.

"En? What is it?" Chen Weier saw that I stopped, and also turned around.

"For you," I handed the paper bag in my hand to Chen Weier.
