During the days of review, Xia Chuyi had the powerful learning tool of "space," but she still pretended every day in front of her classmates.
She reduced her extracurricular activities, visiting the library and the practice rooms etc.
As a result, probably because she pretended too well, her buddies from dorm 201 were all especially excited and proactive in asking Professor Bao for leave on her behalf—since in their eyes, she was still Professor Bao's assistant.
Consequently, it seemed that Professor Bao also remembered that on weekends, Xia Chuyi and their study tasks were naturally heavier, so he simply stopped her from going to learn embroidery with Gu Shengliang.
Since Professor Bao had stopped the lessons, her master and his wife naturally wouldn't allow her to help out at "Delicious Residence."
When Qian Qian and the others found out, it naturally turned into a situation where even "Youwei" wouldn't allow her to return.
"Chuyi, I'll come over every few days to show you the accounts from the shop," Qian Qianqian said to Xia Chuyi, thumping her chest. "As for other matters, don't you trust me and Xing Mang?"
She trusted them, but she really didn't need to go into seclusion for intensive study!
However, in everyone's eyes, she was just a "poor student" who had fallen behind during midterms and needed high scores to ensure she didn't fail.
Sigh, Xia Chuyi somewhat regretted having brought up the topic of exam review with Jiang Shuqin in the first place.
Regret is something money can't buy.
Forget it, Xia Chuyi simply took advantage of the time to start studying the second half of the year's content in advance.
And truth be told, maybe because the study atmosphere during the review was incredibly good and she hadn't adapted to the "time difference" when entering and leaving her space, maintaining an intense study regime, she found that her studying was incredibly efficient.
This was an unexpected gain.
After more than a month of review, Chuyi almost completed all the courses for her sophomore year through self-study.
She mused that at this rate, she could very likely finish all her college credits next year.
The only thing was, she had to keep "acting" like she was diligently studying.
Of course, playing a year-long role in exchange for graduating two years early was something Xia Chuyi felt was worthwhile.
In the blink of an eye, finals arrived.
Before the exam, Xia Chuyi met her recently acknowledged brother—Ou Jun.
"Brother Ou, what brings you here?" Xia Chuyi was surprised to see him.
After all, she hadn't seen him at all during this period.
Well, she had seen very few people in general during this time.
There was no helping it, everyone was afraid of disturbing her review, so aside from delivering soup and meals, they seldom came to bother her.
Therefore, she was genuinely surprised to see Ou Jun now. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel⁂fire.net
Ou Jun was holding a bag in his hand, looked at her, and smiled, "Are you still calling me Brother Ou?"
Ou Jun's tone was deliberately slightly dissatisfied.
"Brother," Xia Chuyi smiled and smoothly went along, "So Brother, what brings you to see me? Is there something you need?"
Ou Jun said, "Chuyi, you have exams coming up, and logically, I shouldn't be bothering you."
"However, I promised to give you a gift before, and I haven't delivered it yet."
He handed over the bag he was holding, "I thought about it for a long time and didn't know what to get you."
"'Jiao Jiao' and Lian'er usually want things that, for some reason, I always felt you wouldn't like."
"So, I just randomly bought some stationery to give to you."
"Ah?" Xia Chuyi was momentarily surprised, "You came all this way just to bring me stationery?"
