Picking up on the hint immediately, Mu Xiaoxiao went up to hug Han Qiqing. “Qiqing, I’m so happy that you’re here. Come, let’s go to the room.”
Just as she was going to take Qiqing away, she heard Yin Shaojie saying mildly, “Take your medicine first.”
That look of his was quite bossy.
Mu Xiaoxiao flattened her mouth, hesitated for a moment as she glanced at Han Qiqing beside her before reluctantly going to take the medicine.
Han Qiqing smiled and greeted Mama Yin sweetly, “Auntie, how are you? I’m here to visit Xiaoxiao. She’s looking much better now.”
Mama Yin smiled warmly and asked, “Have you had your meal, Little Qing?”
Han Qiqing was very lovable to the elders. She nodded and said, “Yeah,I have eaten already, and so I thought of coming to see Xiaoxiao, wondering if she may be getting any better. But I’m relieved now to see her looking much better.”
Then, the helper carried the fruits over,and Mama Yin called out, “Little Qing, have a seat and have some fruits too. It’s rare for you to come here. If there’s anything you would like to eat, tell Auntie.”
“Alright, Auntie. I won’t stand on ceremony then.” Han Qiqing was about to go over and have a seat.
After swallowing the medicine, Mu Xiaoxiao turned around and grabbed her hand, and she said to Mama Yin, “Mama Yin, Qiqing and I will be in the room to have a private chat. You don’t have to wait for us. We’ll eat later.”
Mama Yin smiled. “What private chat? Even I’m not allowed to listen?”
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at Yin Shaoje, smiling playfully as she said, “We’re saying bad things about him, so Mama Yin can’t listen. We’re going in now.”
“Okay. I will send a helper to bring fruits for you two to eat in the room then.
“Okay! Thanks Mama Yin!”
Mu Xiaoxiao took Han Qiqing as they scurried into the room.
Han Qiqing looked at her. “You can still skip and jump so lively. It seems that you are pretty much recovered.”
“I haven’t fully recovered, but I am feeling more energetic. Now, if only I didn’t have to take medicine.”
Mu Xiaoxiao took her to sit on the sofa, her gaze resting upon on the bag she was carrying in her hand.
“Is this for me? What is it?”
Han Qiqing sat next to her, put the bag on the coffee table, and said, “Lu Yichen told me to give you this. He knows that you are sick, so it’s not convenient for him to visit you.”
“Him?” Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. She opened the bag and saw a few notebooks inside.
Han Qiqing poked her head over to look, and she asked, “What is this?”
Although she was very curious about what Lu Yichen wanted to give to Xiaoxiao, she didn’t open it up to check since it wasn’t right to do so.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “It’s a notebook. I totally forgot about this matter. I asked if I could borrow his notebook since he has such good grades so that I may be able to get some study shortcuts.”
After all, no one wanted to rank at the bottom of the list. Not only did she fail her tests, she was far from the passing scores.
In Year One, they only had tests with a maximum of 100 marks. In Year Two, they would be taking tests with a maximum of 150 marks. With more questions as they progress, if she were to continue scoring in the 30 marks to 40 marks range that’d be really shameful!
Although Mu Xiaoxiao wasn’t such a super scholar like Lu Yichen, her grades were not bad. Ever since she was young, she had always been one of the better performing students.
She took pride in herself too. How could she allow herself to score so badly all the time?
“Notes?” Han Qiqing looked surprised as she picked up a notebook to browse it.
From the condition of the paper and the writing in it, it was obvious that this was a newly bought notebook.
