Chapter 322 Like to hide in the details
"Oh my God!"
After being in a daze for nearly a minute, Ye Xian exclaimed, turned around, and ran out of the room to find her phone to inform her husband of the good news.
Seeing this, Ning Xi covered her mouth and laughed lightly, but before the smile could fully bloom, she suddenly realized what she had just done. A flush instantly spread across her cheeks, and she hurriedly slipped out from Ye Fan's arms.
"Um… I was just too happy, I didn't mean to…"
"It's fine."
Ye Fan naturally understood what the girl wanted to say. He leaned down close to her ear and teased in a low voice:"In the future, it's okay to do this a few more times."
"Ptooey!"
Ning Xi spat softly and covered her cheeks with her delicate hand.
Just now, in front of Ye Xian, she had actually hugged Ye Fan on her own initiative. So unreserved!
However, at this moment, she was overwhelmed by excitement and happiness. After a brief moment of overthinking, her attention turned back to the college entrance exam results.
Full marks?
FULL MARKS!!!
If it were three months ago, Ning Xi would never have even fantasized about such an unrealistic thing. She knew very well what her abilities were like, but she hadn't expected that after meeting Ye Fan, she would undergo a qualitative leap in her scores in less than three months.
Getting a full score in the college entrance exam is a miracle.
And Ye Fan—he is the one who creates miracles!
During this period, no one had helped her more than Ye Fan. Ning Xi knew this better than anyone. While she was touched, a hint of sweetness also surged in her heart.
"Gege, I'm going to tell Mom this great news."
Leaving behind those words, Ning Xi ran out of the room with her phone in her hands. Her departing figure radiated joy.
Ye Fan looked at the girl's back, the corners of his thin lips curling into a smile,"Silly girl, if you're just going to make a call, why leave the room…"
Just as he said half of that sentence, a sweet system notification sounded in his mind.
"Ding—"
"Congratulations to the host for achieving a full score in the college entrance exam. Experience +8316."
Ye Fan's eyes, as black as ink, narrowed slightly. He couldn't help but let out a curse.
Holy shit!!!
This time, the reward for completing the task had indeed exceeded his expectations.
8316 experience points?
Whoa!
Ye Fan pulled up the attribute panel and hurried to check.
[Host]: Ye Fan[Knowledge]: Level 4 (1512/10000)[Intelligence]: Level 5 (121/100000)[Physical Strength]: Level 4 (82/10000)[Medical Skills]: Level 4 (0/10000)[Virtue Points]: 80[Experience Points]: 12325[Skill]: Flowing Inspiration (灵思泉涌)
During this period, Ye Fan hadn't been gaining experience points very efficiently. He used the one-hour time limit of Flowing Inspiration before going to bed, and the rest of the time, he spent with Ning Xi.
Leveling up?
No!
Ye Fan had no intention of leveling up. After all, his four main abilities were already enough to handle all kinds of situations. There was no need to level up now. It was better to save up experience points to deal with any emergencies that might arise.
Now that his mother's health issue had been resolved, Ye Fan was no longer anxious about gaining experience points. He could just let it come naturally.
Spending time with Ning Xi was the most important thing!
On the other side.
In the pink bedroom, Ning Xi lay on her stomach on the bed. Her crystal-clear jade feet kicked playfully in the air. Her petite body curved gracefully, and paired with her already breathtakingly beautiful features, she looked both holy and subtly seductive.
"Xiao Xi, you… say that again."
Seeing the disbelief on her mother's face through the video call, Ning Xi's giggles echoed in the room. Her red lips parted:"Mom, you didn't mishear. Your daughter got a full score on the college entrance exam."
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows at the phone playfully, clearly fishing for praise.
Lan Xi swallowed hard, "Xiao Xi, if you got full marks, then what about Xiao Fan's score?"
"Of course, also full marks!"
Ning Xi said matter-of-factly:"Ye Fan is way better than me. If I could get full marks, of course, he got full marks too."
Lan Xi: "..."
She was speechless for a long time.
Full marks in the college entrance exam?
The most unbelievable part was—two people got it at once...
Anyone would find it hard to believe. Lan Xi understood all too well what full marks meant in the college entrance exam of Xia Country. In her memory, it had been years since someone had gotten full marks—she had to go back over a decade to find one case.
And that full-score student had become an honorary professor at the Xia Country Institute of Technology. Whether domestically or internationally, their reputation was extremely high.
Lan Xi remembered it so clearly because that year, she had just given birth to Ning Xi, making the memory especially vivid.
"Xiao Xi, when are you planning to return to the Imperial Capital?"
After calming herself down, Lan Xi asked:"You've been staying in Linhai for quite a while now, and it's not really appropriate to keep living at Ye Fan's house. You're a girl, after all. Even if I don't say some things, you should understand. It's about time to come home."
"…Mm."
Ning Xi nodded softly,"Unless something unexpected happens, Ye Fan and I will return to the Imperial Capital tomorrow."
"Oh?"
Lan Xi sounded surprised:"Xiao Fan's coming with you?"
Ning Xi pressed her red lips together, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and her eyes sparkled faintly, filled with something special."Yes, Ye Fan doesn't feel comfortable letting me go back alone."
Hearing that, Lan Xi secretly nodded.
Indeed, when it came to the small details, Ye Fan had never disappointed her.
Actually, Lan Xi didn't care how outstanding Ye Fan was. What mattered to her was how good he was to her daughter. People can lie, people can fake emotions—but not the details.
Love hides in the details. So does indifference.
"Then should I tell your dad, or will you tell him yourself when you come back tomorrow?"
Hearing her mother's question, Ning Xi beamed with a radiant smile, beautiful like a blooming night-blooming cereus:"Mom, don't tell Dad just yet. I want to tell him myself."
"Alright then, that's settled. Bye-bye."
The call ended.
Ning Xi got up from the bed. At this moment, the pressure that had been lingering in her heart was completely gone.
She had aced the college entrance exam—a grand victory!
She sat on the bed in a daze, occasionally showing a silly smile, humming a tune. Her delicate little feet bounced with joy—as cute as could be.
At lunchtime.
Ning Xi truthfully told Ye Xian that she planned to return to the Imperial Capital tomorrow.
Ye Xian, who had been all smiles, suddenly froze upon hearing this. Her appetite vanished, and she quickly grabbed Ning Xi's hand:"Xiao Xi, is something making you uncomfortable at Auntie's place? Why are you suddenly going back?"
"Auntie, I've had a great time here. There's nothing making me uncomfortable."
Ning Xi sneaked a glance at Ye Fan, who was eating, and explained:"Before coming to Linhai, Ye Fan and I had already agreed that we'd return to the Imperial Capital after the college entrance exam results came out. Thank you so much for taking care of me these days."
Ye Xian opened her mouth, then tentatively suggested:"Xiao Xi, there's still a long time left in the summer holiday. Why not stay a few more days? If you feel embarrassed to tell your mom, I can call her and talk about it. What do you think?"
