The bamboo horse is mistaken for a wife who has come to attack

  Xia Zhi slowly lowered his head, almost as if he could feel his soft and gentle breathing.

  Her eyes slowly closed, and she could hear her own heartbeat racing like a restless little deer.

  The expected tenderness and sweetness did not arrive, instead a sudden burning sensation on her back made her fall from cloud nine to the ground. She opened her eyes with a start, and the sweet and romantic scene in her imagination vanished into thin air. All that was left in her line of sight were piles of white exercise papers on the table, and Xia Fei's impatient profile beside her.

  Her pouting lips hadn't even had time to retract, and she was about to lose control in an instant, when Xia Fei Han's gentle words flew into her ears, making her suddenly come back to her senses.

  "There's originally little time for reviewing anyway."

  Review? Oh my god, she fell asleep while reading again. She was so frustrated that she scratched her messy hair, and her inner heat had nowhere to vent. She finally managed to have such a wonderful dream with Xia Zhi Gege, which can be said to be the first time in her life, but at the most critical moment, she was awakened by Xia Fei Han's stick...

  Wait a minute, did Xia Fei Han just hit her? Zhan Yu's eyes scanned around and soon landed on the small steel ruler by Xia Fei Han's side.

  Did he really hit her? Zhan's eyes narrowed, his fists clenched, and his breath focused on his dantian as he instantly entered combat mode. But looking at Xia Feihan again, he was so serious about flipping through her textbooks for her, so serious about helping her pick out key points.

  He seemed to be completely unaware of himself, with a calm and innocent expression, as if he had simply discovered her sleeping while flipping through the book, and then woke her up in his usual brutal way...

  It should be like this? Warily suspicious.

  It must be like this, right? I'm just comforting myself.

  It's definitely like this. Warily warily shaking his head and throwing away his thoughts, he made a conclusion about the matter.

  Alright, considering he was kind and unintentional, she decided to forgive him generously. Zhan immediately dropped the matter, yawned, rubbed his cheeks, and prepared to recharge and dive back into battle.

  Huh? What's this sticky stuff?... Looking at the transparent ** on my hand, I quickly hid my hand behind me, destroying the evidence behind my back.

  It's all over, it's just a mouthful! Woe is me, I won't make a fool of myself in front of Xia Fei Han, will I? Won't my lifelong reputation be ruined in an instant? How can I maintain my glorious image in front of him from now on? If I compete with him again, won't I be inferior to him?

  She glanced at Xia Fei Han with a sorrowful and resentful look, carefully judging from the movement of his eyebrows and eyes on the side, from the movement of his lips, and from the frequency of his fingertips.

  He shouldn't have seen it, right? Hehe, definitely not! Otherwise, how could he be so calm and miss this opportunity to mock himself.

  Zhan Zhan successfully hypnotized himself again, put down his mind, and smiled silently with an open mouth, re-entering the book.

  Xia didn't look at him coldly. However, through the bright screen, she clearly took in his every move. Humph, fight with him? She was still too naive. Apart from her brute strength, she wasn't even his match.

  Thinking about what just happened, she felt a thrill from within. However, was that force too light? She's thick-skinned and he doesn't need to be so gentle with her.

  I must record today's events, this is the first time in all these years of struggling with her that I have achieved a pure victory without letting her rebound.

  Go down in history!

  And besides, there are nine days left, shouldn't there be plenty of opportunities?

  Xia Fei's heart was getting more and more cheerful, her fingertips playing a lively melody.

  Everyone is happy. Zhan Zhu Zhu thinks Xia Fei Han is seriously teaching her knowledge and being a good role model; Xia Fei Han is trying to play childish revenge games in the boring study, enjoying herself immensely.

  Two people, one party, joyful and harmonious scene.

  "Brother, didn't you feel that Doudou and Second Brother were being very strange today?" Xia Lixia had just come out of Xia Feihan's room. Of course, the precious knowledge treasure Xia Feihan wouldn't only give to his nemesis but not to his own beloved little sister. Although Xia Lixia had only gone in to grab some practice questions and then returned to her own study, she still sensitively felt the strange atmosphere inside, which was really hard to understand.

  "Are you looking forward to them quarreling?" Xia Zhi smiled as he looked at his younger sister, Li Qiu was absolutely the kind of gentle and elegant little princess who was 100% likable, yet also clever and wise. Thinking about what Tang Tang said about genetic issues, he couldn't help but smile wryly - it seemed that the Xia family's genes were indeed quite excellent.

  "Of course not," Xia Liqiu shook his head, with a hint of curiosity and doubt in his expression: "But it's a bit unreasonable."

  Have the two of them suddenly turned over a new leaf? Have they had an epiphany? Even if this is a process that requires gradual progress, even if they have all suddenly woken up to reality, but the timing is just too coincidental.

  "You've been spoiled by Doudou, fearing that the world is not chaotic." Xia Zhi, of course, couldn't possibly be truly criticizing and complaining. Sometimes he even had to thank Doudou for making Li Qiu more lively.

  Xia Liqiu smiled and pursed her lips, declining to answer the question: "Brother, if anything happens later, be sure to tell me, okay?" This is the best seasoning in learning life.

  "Good grief!" Xia Zhi shook his head in exasperation, a smile spreading across his face that he couldn't hide. Just now downstairs, Grandpa had said something similar too - just how much did the whole family enjoy watching Yu Yu and Fei Han bicker? This kind of thinking was really unreasonable, wasn't it?

  Downstairs, Father Xia Hongjun and Mother He Wenshan returned home together. Xia Hongjun was forty-five years old, but he looked like he was not yet forty years old, except for being slightly plump, he could be considered a refined and elegant handsome man; He Wenshan was even more so, dressed in a capable and strong woman's attire, but her eyebrows and eyes were full of charm, with a noble and independent personality.

  That's genes for you.

  "Xia Zhe, why aren't you preparing for rest yet?" He Wenshu looked at her eldest son, with a completely revealed image of a loving mother.

  "Let's send Xiaodou back home immediately." Xia Zhi carefully took over her parents' briefcase and coat, putting them away: "Fei Han is helping Xiaodou with her homework right now."

  "Huh?" Xia Hongjun and He Wenshan exchanged a skeptical glance: "What are these two kids up to?"

  Xia Zhi suppressed a smile, and another pair of people with skeptical attitudes appeared: "They are really studying seriously. Tangtang wants to get into the top ten in this exam, and Fei Han seems to be very supportive."

  The more they said that, the two elders seemed to be even less convinced. "When did Doudou become so fond of studying? Did Old War set some rules for her again?"

  He recalled the Warring States period, where he was forced to study hard and be among the top 50, with a stern expression. Xia Hongjun shook his head, not daring to agree with this rough education method - he never wanted his three precious children to end up like that.

  "Hongjun, why don't you give Warring States a call? Since it's for review, let Xiaodou stay at home. This child, we've seen her grow up from little to big, just like our own daughter, no need to be so polite." He Wenshan was fond of both Xiaodou and his son.

  Xia Hongjun sighed: "The Warring States period was good in every way, except for these old feudalistic ideas."

  The Warring States Command Article 1: Those who take the imperial examination must be among the top fifty in their age group; otherwise, they will be sent back to Houqiao Town to study.

  The second article of the Warring States Period: Zhan Yuanyuan is not allowed to stay overnight at Xia's house, otherwise, she will be married off to a door god doll in Houqiao Town immediately.

  This is also the helpless rule set by Sengoku when facing his beloved youngest daughter's persistence towards Xia Zhi. Unfortunately, their family has given birth to such an impatient girl who wants to pester someone, and that person is still the son of an old friend. Sengoku really can't bear the shame on his face. If they don't impose restrictions or rules, he's afraid that something that would bring shame to their family might happen in the future.

  "It's okay, I'll drive her there right away, it will be quick." Xia Zhi comforted his parents.
