As Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu didn’t talk much to begin with, the three of them had nothing to talk about.

“Why don’t I stay here? In this case, I can take care of my sister too.” The young girl had an innocent smile on her face as she looked at Mo Zhu sincerely.

Mo Zhu found it funny and looked at Huo Xuan with a deep meaning in her gaze. The man’s eyes also landed on her, as if he was asking her a question.

“Sure, it’s just so happens that there are no servants here.”

Fang Ran almost lost her composure. Mo Zhu actually compared her to a servant. It took her a long time to calm the anger rising in her heart.

As long as she stayed here, she would be able to win Young Master Huo’s heart. Then, Mo Zhu would have no choice but to go back to where she came from. Then, she wouldn’t be so arrogant anymore.

Fang Ran put on a sweet smile again. She was not in a hurry. Once Young Master Huo knew what kind of person Mo Zhu was, he would definitely not look at her again.

After the meal, it was still Fang Ran who washed the dishes. When Fang Ran came out of the kitchen, she saw Huo Xuan holding Mo Zhu’s backpack and the two of them were preparing to leave.

Fang Ran picked up her bag quickly and followed Huo Xuan. Originally, Fang Ran had wanted to sit at the back with Huo Xuan, but when she met the man’s cold gaze, she could only resentfully retract her legs and go to the front passenger seat.

The driver was Mo Wu, whom Fang Ran had never seen before. As Fang Ran was there, Mo Wu did not speak.

“Sister, the monthly exam is in three days. How’s your preparation going?” Fang Ran broke the silence.

Mo Zhu leaned against the wall and squinted her almond-shaped eyes. “It’s alright.” Her tone was rather casual.

Fang Ran knew about Mo Zhu’s results. Qin Ya had mentioned it countless times.

Uneducated, incompetent, loved to fight, and ranked last in her academics. These adjectives appeared in Fang Ran’s mind.

She asked this to embarrass Mo Zhu, but she did not expect her to lie.

However, three days later, she wouldn’t be able to fake her results. When that day comes, Young Master Huo would definitely find out that Mo Zhu was lying and thus detest her.

The car reached Jingyang High School in no time. Huo Xuan got out of the car, opened the door for Mo Zhu and handed Mo Zhu her bag.

Fang Ran opened the car door and when she saw this scene, the jealousy in her eyes intensified.

Mo Zhu took the bag from Huo Xuan and walked into school.

However, Fang Ran didn’t move. Huo Xuan looked over lazily and asked, “What’s up?”

“Young Master Huo, I have something to tell you.” Seeing that the man did not respond, Fang Ran took a few steps forward.

“It’s about my sister.”

“I had originally wanted to hide it for my sister, but seeing that Young Master Huo is treating her so well, I can’t bear to hide it from you.”

“My sister, I can’t believe that my sister is secretly meeting another man behind your back.” Fang Ran’s face was full of sadness, she had gone through a huge struggle voicing this out.

“Oh? Your sister is such a person?”

Fang Ran was pleasantly surprised when she heard this. She looked up, wanting to see Huo Xuan’s expression.

However, she saw the man turn around, leaving her with his back view. “I think Ms. Fang should ask your chauffeur to pick you up in the afternoon. The car can’t fit all of us.”

Fang Ran looked in the direction where the car left and was slightly taken aback. Did Young Master Huo hear that? Was he starting to hate Mo Zhu?

If the car was able to fit all of them just now, why wouldn’t it be able to in the afternoon? Thinking of Huo Xuan’s words, Fang Ran felt a little wronged.

Mo Zhu had already arrived at the classroom and just as she sat down, her form teacher, Li Xiao, walked in.

“Students, there are still three more days before the monthly exam. Hence, we will be giving you tests in advance for the next two days. Firstly, it is to allow the students to familiarize themselves with the examination format and secondly, we have to let the students enter the state of mind in advance.”

When the students in Class Eight heard this, they all looked annoyed.

Meng Ran and Jiang Xun were not in a good mood either.

The papers were marked before school ended that day and were handed out to them. Mo Zhu stuffed them into her bag casually.

When Huo Xuan came to pick up Mo Zhu, Xu Huan was also there.

“Little Bamboo, why do you look like you’re not in a good mood? What happened? Tell me.” This was the first time Xu Huan saw Black Bamboo like this. He grabbed her and asked.

“I had a day of tests.” Mo Zhu lifted her eyelids.

“How did you do? Do you have the test papers? Let me take a look.” Xu Huan was curious.

Mo Zhu took out the crumpled papers from her bag and threw it to Xu Huan.

Xu Huan was somewhat convinced. He opened up her paper with a good temper and said, “Little Bamboo, you only got one question correct.” She did not get a single multiple choice question correct!

He finally understood what it meant to perfectly avoid the correct answer. This person was incredible.

Xu Huan regretted his words as he was afraid of hurting Mo Zhu’s pride. Mo Zhu closed her eyes and did not respond.

Xu Huan had also heard that Mo Zhu’s results weren’t good, but he hadn’t expected it to be so bad.

Huo Xuan’s gaze fell on Mo Zhu. Should he buy some exercise questions for her to do and get Mo Wu to contact a tutor for her?

However, he gave up on the second idea.. He could tutor Mo Zhu personally.
