Not long after Chu Ning finished her meal, Chu Ning's parents returned.

"Dad, Mum, you're back!"

When Chu Ning saw them, she quickly put down the housework and ran to the door to welcome them.

However, when she got closer, she saw her parents' exhaustion written across their faces. They forced themselves to smile when they saw her, making her heart ache once more.

"Xiaoning, go and rest. You don't have to do the housework. You just need to focus on your studies. How was school today?"

Chu Ning's mother put down her handbag and gestured for Chu Ning to quickly sit down. She did not have to do the housework.

"Dad, Mum, you have worked hard all day. I don't have to work at school. What's wrong with doing some housework? You should be the one taking a rest."

Upon saying that, Chu Ning briskly poured them a cup of boiled water. Then, she served them the still-warm dishes.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Xiaohuan back?" Mr. Chu asked.

Chu Ning did not hesitate and went over to open the door.

However, she was surprised to see who it was.

"Xu Xi? Why are you here?"

Chu Ning was a little surprised. How did he know that she lived here... Xu Xi was the upright representative of the mathematics class this morning.

"I'm sorry to bother you at this time. But I do have some questions about mathematics that I'd like you to explain to me. Do you have time? Don't worry, I'll pay you accordingly. Uh, I don't mean anything by it. I just want to ask you some math questions."

The two of them stood outside the door and had their conversation.

Chu Ning's parents came over upon hearing their voices. When they found out that it was Chu Ning's classmate and that he was here to learn from Chu Ning, their faces beamed with joy. They warmly invited Xu Xi in.

"No need, Uncle and Auntie. If I discuss this with Chu Ning here, I'll be disturbing your rest. Chu Ning, how about we go to the library?"

Xu Xi looked at Chu Ning sincerely.

"Alright, wait a while." Chu Ning didn't think much of it and let him wait at the door. Then, she changed her clothes and came out.

When Xu Xi saw Chu Ning with her change of clothes, his eyes couldn't help but light up. Although it was just an ordinary outfit, it seemed different when it was worn by Chu Ning. Moreover, he also felt that Chu Ning was much easier to get along with than before...

"Let's go, what are you still standing there for?"

Chu Ning saw Xu Xi staring at her in a daze and couldn't help but poke him with her forefinger to get his attention.

"Okay."

They reached downstairs of the Chu residence. Under the moonlight, Chu Ning immediately saw the Maybach that appeared to blend into the night.

In her memory, Xu Xi was mostly quiet in class and only liked to revise his work after class. He didn't communicate much with his classmates, but no one tried to provoke him. Even Princess Chu Ning of her past life seemed to be very secretive about him.

"Is this yours?" Chu Ning asked.

"Yes, the driver has knocked off. I felt that the sports car was too loud, and driving it out at night might disturb the neighbors, so I drove this out. It's quieter."

Xu Xi explained.

Chu Ning fell silent.

"Alright then. Are you an adult yet, that you dare to drive?" Chu Ning did not want to fuss over this aspect. Earning money was more important. It was just tutoring a bunch of kids. It was not a big deal.

"I'm driving the car. You can sit in the back." Chu Ning lectured Xu Xi.

"No problem!" Xu Xi nodded. Based on Xu Xi's character, he would not have interacted with someone like Chu Ning.

His favourite thing to do was to sit quietly and study the practice questions alone. Then, if he encountered something he didn't understand, he would ask the top student in the school, or the teacher. The delicate and fragile Princess Chu Ning? Sorry, please stay away!

However, Chu Ning's actions today amazed Xu Xi!

He would only act properly in front of someone he respected very much.

Thus, the scene upstairs occurred.

"Chu Ning... She's so beautiful... What's essential is that she even solved such a difficult math problem! And she used knowledge that only university students would learn!"

Xu Xi couldn't help thinking this way, as he sat in the back seat.

Suddenly, Xu Xi seemed to remember something. Sitting in the back seat, he looked up again and saw Chu Ning's beautiful profile illuminated by the dim light of the car's electronic screen...
