Learning Makes Me Rich

Chapter 178: 178

The first time Xi Shaoyuan met Zhou Xiu was on a rainy night, Mrs. Xi asked him to go to the station to pick up a girl and go home.

He has always been disgusted with dealing with such trivial matters, but Mrs. Xi emphasized that this is a matter entrusted by Aunt Hao Yuemiao and must be done well. Xi Shaoyuan stopped by the train station to pick him up after finishing the competition class.

It was getting late and it was pouring rain. The driver drove several times around the train station but couldn't find Zhou Xiu. He didn't have the other party's mobile phone, no photos, and only a few barren descriptions to find someone in the vast crowd.

When the car circled around for the fourth time, Xi Shaoyuan found her. It's not because of fate, but because Zhou Xiu's shabbiness is too eye-catching. She was wearing inappropriate clothes, carrying something in a snakeskin bag, and her whole body was full of tackiness and outdatedness. To make matters worse, the rain poured into her inferior rubber shoes, drenching her whole body.

She was already standing at the door of KFC, but she didn't dare to go in to hide from the rain.

Xi Shaoyuan had never had the opportunity to communicate with such peers in his life, so he asked the driver to signal her to get in the car quickly.

Zhou Xiu stared at the luxury car parked in front of her, and was stunned for a long time. The pouring rain contrasted sharply with the warm heating inside the car. The expensive leather sofa and the incredibly handsome and expensive boy sitting upright made her feel out of place. Zhou Xiu was so embarrassed that she didn't even know where to put her feet. She poured out the water in the shoes clumsily before climbing into the car carefully.

The girl's embarrassment rarely pleased Xi Shaoyuan, and he handed her a dry towel.

Mrs. Xi placed the girl in her own home. After a long time, Xi Shaoyuan found out that her name was Zhou Xiu and she was studying in the next class.

The reason why Xi Shaoyuan remembered Zhou Xiu's name was that she got a full score in mathematics in the monthly exam. The math test paper that time was very difficult, and there were only two full marks in the whole grade. One is Xie Cheng and the other is Zhou Xiu.

Zhou Xiu was indeed as smart as Aunt Hao Yuemiao described.

Although they lived under the same roof, Xi Shaoyuan had very little contact with her, and they would not exchange more than three sentences in a month. One day, Mrs. Xi called and asked Xi Shaoyuan if he had given Zhou Xiu living expenses, and told him to leave 3,000 yuan a month for Zhou Xiu's living expenses.

Xi Shaoyuan forgot to give Zhou Xiu his living expenses, and then he realized that he paid so little attention to Zhou Xiu, and didn't realize that she had no money to spend.

How did Zhou Xiu spend this time?

During this period, she earned money by working part-time. At first, she used the time after school to go to restaurants to wash dishes and serve dishes. The night market was the busiest and most short of manpower. When she helped for two hours a day, she could earn daily food expenses and bus fare.

In this way, she earns her own food expenses by working part-time. Although the days of being exhausted between school and restaurants are tiring, she can endure these. What bothered her the most was her heavy studies and sensitive self-esteem.

Class 24 is an international class. Some courses are taught in pure English. The students in the class are either rich or expensive. The price of a pair of sneakers and a shirt may be a sky-high price that Zhou Xiu can't earn even if he works part-time for a year. The Moreno Glacier and the Ngorongoro Crater they talked about casually were unheard of by her, and she couldn't get in a word when they talked about skiing, horse racing, and fencing.

Even in the most proud study, Zhou Xiu suffered a tragic defeat.

Zhou Xiu studied in the middle school in the county before and was always the first in grade. In the first monthly exam after coming to Yude, she failed in both mathematics and English. Waterloo Zhou Xiu in English could tolerate it, but Zhou Xiu never expected to fail in mathematics.

There are many reasons for failing in mathematics. For example, Granny Zhou did not allow her to study in the second semester of high school, and she missed a semester of courses. The textbooks used in City C are different from those in Zhou Xiu’s hometown. All this is not an excuse for Zhou Xiu, because this is the mathematics she is most proud of.

Strong self-esteem and shame made Zhou Xiu look like a transparent person throughout the month, reading textbooks in her seat whenever she was free. At that time, no classmates were interested in her, and no one wanted to talk to her.

Other people's ignorance is harmless to Zhou Xiu, and the difficulties in life are not a big deal. What is intolerable is the contempt he received in Xi's family.

The young master of the Xi family celebrated his birthday and invited his classmates to the party. His classmates found out that Zhou Xiu lived in Xi's house, and looked at her with strange eyes. The next day, the housekeeper and aunt of the Xi family looked at Zhou Xiu differently.

Aunt Niu reminded Zhou Xiu that Mrs. Xi supported her out of kindness, she should study hard, and don't think about things that Xiao shouldn't think about.

Zhou Xiu heard what she meant, and he hardly spoke to Xi Shaoyuan in that month.

The only accident was that Zhou Xiu accidentally ran into him solving a math problem and was stuck in calculations. She saw his mistake in a certain step and reminded him a few words.

After the reminder, Zhou Xiu regretted it. Xi Shaoyuan glanced at her unexpectedly, and then pushed the draft paper and pen to her for calculation.

After that day, he started to greet Zhou Xiu, invited her to take the car to school together in the morning, and recommended her to attend the competition class of the key class teacher Wang. This series of actions gave Zhou Xiu the illusion of being "flattered".

Xi Shaoyuan is like Zhou Xiu's new classmates, but he has a more superior family background, a better appearance, and excellent grades. He is what all parents call "other people's children". He almost grew up according to perfect standards.

She couldn't even integrate into her new classmate, so how could she get along with him peacefully? Zhou Xiu rejected his offer and got used to being alone.

The ever-increasing silence and desperate efforts, although they cannot improve Zhou Xiu's interpersonal relationship, they can make her grades improve rapidly.

Zhou Xiu finally regained the feeling of being at her fingertips. In the monthly exam in November, she got a full score in mathematics, and her grades ranked among the top 100 in her grade for the first time. Hearing from the teacher in charge that the school set up scholarship awards for the top ten students in the mid-term and final exams, Zhou Xiu worked harder. Leaving early and returning late, apart from part-time jobs, I only have to study.

When Master Xi approached Zhou Xiu for living expenses, she was serving tea and water at a food stall in the night market.

The moonlight shone on the girl, her jet-black hair seemed to be coated with a layer of light, and the girl's slender waist was alluring. The social youths at the food stalls looked at her wantonly and whistled from time to time.

Those bold and casual eyes lingered on the girl, Xi Shaoyuan felt a little uncomfortable.

He didn't expect that Zhou Xiu would rather work part-time in this kind of place than call Mrs. Xi for living expenses. He even saw him every day for two months without saying a word. He couldn't think of Zhou Xiu's reason for doing so.

He discovered Zhou Xiu's talent in mathematics, took the initiative to greet her, and took her to attend the Olympiad class. Unexpectedly, she ruined her future and sold cheap labor in such a bad environment.

He fed the dog with good intentions, which Xi Shaoyuan could not tolerate, he had never encountered such a thing.

Young Master Xi became angry, pulled Zhou Xiu into the car, and told the driver to drive home.

After being pulled into the car, Zhou Xiu sighed helplessly, and raised her head to look at the noble young master sitting in the car.

His limited edition sneakers are spotless, a simple white t-shirt outlines a beautiful figure, and the tear moles at the corners of his eyes are dazzling.

He took out a card from his wallet and threw it into Zhou Xiu's arms, casually mockingly said: "Could it be that the Xi family sponsors you to see you serving food at the street stall?"

"If I report the behavior I just saw to the school, you will be expelled immediately."

Zhou Xiu looked up in astonishment, never expecting that someone like Xi Shaoyuan would actually make a small report.

Xi Shaoyuan raised his chin, "Zhou Xiu, if you don't believe me, you can try it."

The cold bank card was hard in his hand, with Xi Shaoyuan's flamboyant signature on it. Accepting it, Zhou Xiu will not have to worry about the economy, and can fully devote herself to her studies.

But... Zhou Xiu returned the card to him after getting off the car.

She worded it carefully and said, "If you don't come, I plan to quit that part-time job. I'm going to fight for a scholarship in the midterm exam, so I shouldn't be short of money in the future. Thank you for your card, I don't need it for now. "

Xi Shaoyuan didn't like Zhou Xiu's stubborn temper very much. Yude's top ten in the grade was not something she wanted to take the exam. He didn't want to say a word to her, but fortunately, he had expected Zhou Xiu to have such a reaction just now.

Xi Shaoyuan raised the corners of his lips, calmly took out his mobile phone, and handed it to Zhou Xiu to show her to take a look.

The moment the screen was turned on, Zhou Xiu's face was filled with shock. She underestimated how much Xi Shaoyuan liked to tease people, so he took a picture of her washing the dishes just now.

"Be obedient, understand?" Xi Shaoyuan said proudly.

Zhou Xiu was forced to accept the bank card.

In the following days, Xi Shaoyuan resumed his indifferent attitude towards Zhou Xiu, he was originally such an indifferent person. He didn't just have this attitude towards Zhou Xiu, he had this attitude towards all the girls. Usually, Zhou Xiu would hardly bother Xi Shaoyuan.

But two people are in the same school, and it is always inevitable to overlap.

Zhou Xiu wore an old sportswear in physical education class, it was washed white, and it didn't fit well, as if it would break apart after running. Xi Shaoyuan accidentally discovered it during physical education class of Class 25 and Class 24, and his brows would frown.

She wears very thin clothes in winter, and her complexion is always a little pale.

The most intolerable thing is that Zhou Xiu eats very frugally. Every time I bump into her in the dining hall, her bowl is full of vegetarian dishes, and meat dishes are almost rare. Girls of the same age are glamorous on important festivals. She doesn't even know how to put on makeup, and she can't be expected to know what to dress for.

She seems to be able to wear school uniform all year round. Silent, vulgar, and outdated, it is only a matter of pasting the words "from the country" on the forehead.

Xi Shaoyuan was very surprised by a creature like Zhou Xiu. This country girl seemed to never know how to treat herself well, and didn't care about other people's strange eyes. Girls at this age are extraordinarily delicate and beautiful, but Zhou Xiu is an exception, as if the Xi family is abusing her.

He asked his aunt to buy her a bunch of new clothes, ordered a one-month set meal for her in the restaurant on the second floor of the cafeteria, and ordered a whole set of skin care cosmetics for her at the counter.

Zhou Xiu was taken aback when she received Xi Shaoyuan's "gift". She shook her head and refused. Xi Shaoyuan frowned and said, "Zhou Xiu, what do you mean?"

"If you don't want to be the center of attention of others, you should try to get along with the group. Although my mother told me to take care of you, I have no time to take care of your affairs."

Xi Shaoyuan wondered why this rural girl always avoided him, she was not good-looking, outdated and shabby, why was she hiding from him, did he fall in love with her?

His eyes fell on her unraveled sweatshirt, and he threw a tracksuit at her.

Zhou Xiu's face turned red suddenly, and she turned her head away in embarrassment.

After Xi Shaoyuan left, Zhou Xiu used her mobile phone to search for the labels of the things he gave, thinking that she would return the scholarship to him later. After the search she was silent.

Nearly 4,000 yuan for a humble sportswear with the label arc'teryx. Burberry skirts cost tens of thousands, and he bought four. There are also silk scarves, lipsticks, and skin care products. The brands are the ones that are often discussed by the girls in the class. It was Zhou Xiu's first experience of how rich people spend money like water.

She didn't need these things, but Xi Shaoyuan seemed to be even angrier if she refused, so she reluctantly put them away and put them back in their original place.

Zhou Xiu told Aunt Hao about this, and Aunt Hao smiled and said, "It's okay, Shaoyuan is more careful. You just take what he gave you. Auntie is negligent, and Auntie will buy it for you later."

Zhou Xiu thought that maybe they were just caring and had a good life since they were young, so they didn't see the poor in the valleys very much. Just like treating stray cats and dogs on the side of the road, sometimes I can't help but help. The love they gave freely was a heavy burden for Zhou Xiu.

Although Xi Shaoyuan has a bad temper, he is proud and domineering, and often does not consider other people's feelings. But he is still kind in his bones, and it's not that she doesn't appreciate him. But Zhou Xiu had nothing to repay him, so he could only refuse this kind of sacrifice as much as possible.

Xi Shaoyuan is very popular in school. It is said that he participated in Xin'ao competition when he was a freshman in high school. He once played e-sports competitions with Du Heng, a top student in No. 4 Middle School.

He can also shoot, swim, ski, and race cars, each of which is an enviable talent. He always skipped a class in the counting class and wrote the test paper in the remaining class. He can always finish writing quickly every time, and the accuracy rate is very high.

The extremely strict teacher Wang can't do anything about him, and usually turns a blind eye. If Zhou Xiu was late, she would be punished by Teacher Wang to write a set of test papers. Teacher Wang would yell at everyone except Xi Shaoyuan.

Many people praised Xi Shaoyuan's talent, Zhou Xiushen thought so. Although his mental arithmetic ability is not as good as hers, his abstract thinking is very good.

Because of the popularity of an intelligence-type column, for a while everyone liked to play Rubik's Cube. Xie Cheng deserted at the grade meeting and was filmed carelessly restoring the high-level Rubik's Cube. It took only half an hour, and the video was posted on Weibo and was circulated wildly.

A girl specially ordered an 11th-order Rubik's Cube at a high price, and asked Xi Shaoyuan to restore it. But Xi Shaoyuan refused. This girl is from class 24. She knew that Xi Shaoyuan and Zhou Xiu had a good relationship, so she asked Zhou Xiu for help instead.

Yu Qingyan once taught Zhou Xiu how to swim in swimming lessons. Zhou Xiu couldn't refuse her request, so she had to take the Rubik's Cube home.

After Xi Shaoyuan finished washing at night, Zhou Xiu took out the Rubik's Cube and asked him to restore it.

Xi Shaoyuan was a little surprised, looked at Zhou Xiu for a while and asked, "Isn't this your idea?"

The fact that Xie Cheng was on the trending search unexpectedly caused a trend of showing off his skills. In the past few days, the boys seem to have found the love code, using the Rubik's Cube to win the girl's favor. Zhang Qi holds the Rubik's Cube and studies every day, trying to show his skills in front of the tidbits.

How could Zhou Xiu, a nerd who only knows how to study and doesn't listen to things outside the window, pay attention to Xie Cheng's affairs? I'm afraid Xie Cheng only has one name in her eyes.

Xi Shaoyuan couldn't help but remind Zhou Xiu to study hard.

Immediately after he saw Zhou Xiu's helpless eyes, she secretly opened the chat interface with her hand under the table, and the first sentence she typed was "I'm sorry".

The words in Xi Shaoyuan's mouth faltered, "Playing is fine, but video recording is not."

"If you have to record...you can't take pictures of my face."

Xi Shaoyuan casually pulled a tie from the cabinet and covered his eyes. Gently rotating the Rubik's Cube with his thumb, Zhou Xiu hastily turned on his phone and started recording. The hands that have played all the year round are broad and powerful, with well-articulated thumbs. His fingers are extremely dexterous, and his speed of flying up and down is incredible.

The huge Rubik's Cube changed strange colors in his hands and was restored bit by bit. Eighteen minutes later, the tower made a slight "click", and all the colors on the six sides returned to their original positions.

Xi Shaoyuan was silent for a moment, and gently picked off the tie with his index finger, revealing the tear mole at the corner of his eye.

He raised his lips and asked Zhou Xiu casually, "How is it, is it okay?"

The warm yellow light in the bedroom shone on his pajamas, and the neckline was illuminated as white as snow, which further made his face red and white. He was sitting upright, his earnest profile cast a thick shadow.

There was a quiet fragrance floating in his bedroom, and the silent night made people feel as if they were in a dream.

Zhou Xiu was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and pressed the stop button, "It's done."

The author has something to say:

small theater:

After reading this chapter, Pharaoh sent a soul-like question: Who said I prefer Xi Shaoyuan?

I never yell at him or punish him for homework

It's because Xi Shaoyuan's meat is hob meat, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, yelling is useless, and he doesn't do homework as a punishment.

Lao Wang testified himself: My sweetheart is still the most obedient Xiuxiu

After all, love you will write you a test paper

Lao Wang held out a 100-jin test paper

Everyone retreated one after another, expressing that they could not bear Lao Wang's deep love
