Until he got into the back seat of Yingjiao's car, Jing Ci's ears were still red.

He lowered his eyes and his breathing was slightly rapid. How could Yingjiao say that she missed him?

Are you... are you teasing him? Probably so. That's Yingjiao's character, not to mention that it's okay to make a joke between friends occasionally.

He patted his hot face, stopped thinking about it, and forced himself to turn his attention to other places.

Jing's family and Yingjiao's family are both near the school, not too far away.

In less than twenty minutes, the two of them arrived at their destination.

This was the second time Jing Ci came to Yingjiao's house. Compared to the embarrassment he felt the first time, at this moment, he felt more embarrassed and nervous.

"What should I drink?" Yingjiao opened the refrigerator: "Water or a drink?"

"Water."

Yingjiao saw that he was a little unnatural, so he sat down on the sofa with two bottles of water, patted the place next to him, and said with a smile: "Let's chat for a while before we do our homework?"

Jing Ci nodded, sat down and took the water from Ying Jiao, opened it and took a sip.

"Want to watch TV?" Yingjiao picked up the remote control and asked Jing Ji: "What program do you like?"

Jing Ci wasn't very interested in TV movies, let alone... He raised his eyes to look at Ying Jiao with a smile on his face. What if he was caught off guard and saw blood again on TV?

Seeing the smile in his eyes, Yingjiao instantly understood what he was thinking.

"Do what you can," Yingjiao put his arms around Jing Ci's shoulders, pushed him into his arms, and pinched his face in retaliation: "You are secretly laughing at me, are you?"

"No." Jing Ci suppressed a smile and turned his head to avoid it.

Yingjiao couldn't bear to pinch her so hard and let go: "Are you so happy now that you know my weakness?"

"No," Jing Ci straightened his messed up hair, fearing that Yingjiao might misunderstand, and explained softly: "I'm not laughing at you, I'm just..."

That day in the movie theater, the scene of Ying Jiao looking weak but inexplicably concerned about whether he could do it or not came to mind.

Jing Ci pursed his lips to suppress the corners of his lips that wanted to rise uncontrollably.

"that is……"

I just think Yingjiao who is bleeding is a bit cute inexplicably.

But he couldn't say such disgusting words, and even after a long time, he didn't say anything further.

"Yes," Yingjiao nodded, not intending to embarrass him and did not continue to press: "I know."

Jing Ci breathed a sigh of relief, and before he could thank Ying Jiao in his heart for his understanding, he heard him continue: "You know my secret. Logically speaking, shouldn't you take the initiative to reveal one of your secrets to me?"

?”

Jing Ci was stunned: "I have no secrets."

No?

Ying arrogantly laughed, this little classmate really dared to say that his existence was the biggest secret?

Yingjiao actually wanted to ask him about his origins, why he was here, and whether he... would one day leave quietly just like when he came.

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again.

It is not easy for his relationship with Jing Ci to develop to the point it is now. If he really asked today, he would probably scare Jing Ci away from him.

Yingjiao suppressed the impulse in his heart and raised his eyebrows: "Really not?"

Jing Ci lowered his eyes: "No."

"Then..." Yingjiao raised the corners of his lips slightly, moved closer to him, and whispered: "What's up with Qiao Anyan's peace fruit?"

Jing Ci's brain suddenly panicked, and his face turned red.

Looking at his performance, there is nothing Yingjiao doesn’t understand.

It wasn't a mistake, it wasn't a mix-up, it was just that Jing Ci put the apple into the box on purpose.

"You..." Yingjiao's heartbeat began to speed up involuntarily. He calmed down his breathing and looked tightly at Jing Ci's face: "Why did you do that?"

After being caught for doing bad things, a sense of shame that he had never felt before rose up in his heart. Jing Ji's cheeks were so hot that they were almost smoking. He lowered his eyes and said nothing.

This time, Yingjiao did not let him go and asked again: "Why?"

"Because, because..." Jing Ci stiffened and stuttered, "I... I hate him very much."

Only in this way?

Yingjiao was not satisfied with the answer. He turned his eyes and said, "Then do you know that there is a love letter from him to me in that peace fruit?"

Jing Ci's breath hitched.

Love letter? There is a love letter in there!

Since the peace fruit has been given to the teacher, how did Yingjiao know?

"I'm sorry," Jing Ci's fingertips were trembling, and his mind was already in a mess. He forced himself to calm down: "Did the teacher come to find you? It's all my fault. I started school to talk to the teacher..."

"Okay." Yingjiao originally just wanted to say a few words, but she didn't expect to scare him. She held his cold hands and rubbed them, feeling a little regretful in her heart: "What a big deal to be scared like this. Old Liu is

He was looking for me, but it had nothing to do with me. After he understood it, he let me go. It was the day he looked for us both at noon, do you remember?"

"real?"

"Well," Jing Ci was thoughtful, Ying Jiao was afraid that he would think too much, so he deliberately teased: "I'm just kidding, Lao Liu has long known that you are my little wife, how can you still misunderstand me and other people.

I would rather demolish ten temples than break up one marriage, do you understand?"

Little Beloved Wife Jing Ci: "..."

The little wife stood up from the sofa in embarrassment, turning her back to Yingjiao: "Write, do your homework."

Yingjiao admired his embarrassed look with evil intentions, and then nodded: "Okay."

The two of them went to the study together.

In Jing Ci's hurry downstairs, he stuffed all the books into his schoolbag. Now he calmed down and looked at the messy textbooks. He couldn't bear it any longer, so he poured out all the contents and started reading them one by one.

tidy.

Yingjiao glanced at the Mathematical Olympiad book and asked him: "Your competition results haven't come out yet?"

"You can check your results online at eight o'clock tomorrow morning." Jing Ci took out the papers he was going to write, placed them neatly on the table, and said to Yingjiao: "But the specific results of the awards will have to wait for a few more days."

Yingjiao didn't understand: "Aren't you coming out together?"

Jing Ci shook his head: "The results will be announced first, then the score line for first place in the province will be announced, and finally the list of winners will be announced."

Yingjiao clicked his tongue: "Why is it so troublesome?"

He asked again: "What happens after that?"

"After that..." Jing Ci paused before continuing: "If you are selected into the provincial team, you can participate in the national finals. There are about two hundred people in the country who can enter the finals every year. Our province... Teacher Zhao said that last year

one."

Yingjiao was stunned, the competition was too fierce, but——

"If I were alone this year..." Yingjiao turned the pen in his hand skillfully and chuckled: "It must be you."

Jing Ci shook his head: "We won't know until the results come out."

It was indeed Jing Ci's answer. Even though he was now his closest friend, he still had reservations in front of him.

Yingjiao sighed and turned over the chemistry paper in his hand. Take your time. At least Jing Ci is willing to go home with him now.

Jing Ci had already finished more than half of his homework yesterday, and because of his fast speed in answering questions, he completed all the tasks before six o'clock. Although Ying Jiao didn't catch the fish, he still couldn't keep up with his progress.

There are still a few papers left to finish.

The two of them had been writing for more than three hours. Ying Jiao looked at the time and said to Jing Ci: "Go to eat first, and then come back and continue?"

Jing Ci put his books into his schoolbag in order and refused, "I'm going home."

Go home? Yingjiao sneered. He kidnapped Jing Ci out today and never thought of letting him go back.

"It's only six o'clock, why are you going back so early?" Ying Jiao looked upright and could not see the turmoil in his stomach: "I still have questions to ask you. Anyway, we have a holiday tomorrow, so it will be the same if we go back later."

Jing Ci was most concerned about Yingjiao's study situation. After hearing what he said, he nodded and agreed without thinking: "Okay, then I'll finish explaining the questions to you before we leave."

The two of them put on their coats and went downstairs. Yingjiao took Jing Ci to the Japanese food store they went to yesterday.

The owner of this store is Japanese, and everything from the decoration to the dishes in the store has an authentic Japanese taste.

Yingjiao picked up the menu at hand and asked Jing Ci: "What do you want to eat?"

Jing Ci flipped through two pages. The prices were astonishingly expensive, and they were all things he had never eaten before. He was afraid of ordering the wrong dish, so he closed the menu and said, "You can order it, I can do it."

"No." Yingjiao said helplessly: "You are deliberately trying to embarrass me. What do you like to eat? Do you like sea urchin rice?"

"I've never eaten Japanese food." Jing Ci didn't feel embarrassed and told the truth: "Order what you think is delicious."

Yingjiao paused with his fingertips, and his guess about Jing Ci's family background became more and more certain.

Yingjiao's expression remained unchanged, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have some."

He didn't order directly, but first checked with Jing Ci: "Have you ever eaten raw food before?"
