Since Huo Tianzun was coming over in the evening, Su Qianxun wore a smile on her face after returning home.
Su Qing had already received a text message with the report card from the head teacher and knew that Qianxun had come in first, so she had prepared delicious food early, and now the dining table was laden with tasty dishes.
Seeing Qianxun smiling, she just assumed it was because she had reclaimed first place.
"Back already? Xiao He is in his room doing his worksheets," Su Qing said with a smile.
Su He had initially planned to lie on the sofa and watch TV after school.
However, as soon as Su Qing mentioned Qianxun’s first-place achievement, he could no longer sit still and started working on his worksheets immediately.
Qianxun nodded at Su Qing, then set down her backpack and went into Su He’s room.
Su He’s room was extremely small, barely big enough to fit a bed.
Seeing Qianxun return, his eyes lit up, "Sis, Mom said you got first place again?"
Qianxun smiled and nodded, "Mhm, if you work harder, it’s not impossible for you to get first place in the future too."
Su He wasn’t dumb, just not particularly interested in academics.
But now, motivated to learn music, his progress was quite apparent.
Thinking about the midterms on Thursday and Friday, Qianxun picked up the worksheets he had done today and said, "Based on your current level, passing each subject won’t be a problem, but try to score more points in Maths and Physics as they might boost your grades."
Hearing this, Su He immediately nodded excitedly, "Yeah!"
That seemed like such a distant thing.
It seemed he had only passed back in elementary school.
Since middle school, he had never passed again, always scoring only a handful of points, entirely through guessing.
After outlining the important areas for Su He and pressing the likely exam questions, Qianxun said, "Try these problems I’ve circled, they’re very likely to come up."
Hearing this, Su He quickly nodded.
After a late-night study session until 11:30, because he had school the next day, Su He finally turned off the lights and went to sleep at Su Qing’s urging.
Meanwhile, Qianxun sat on the edge of her bed practicing her Moon Worship cultivation while waiting for Huo Tianzun.
Around 1 AM, a black sedan stopped downstairs in the residential area, and upon hearing the car sound, Qianxun instantly opened her eyes.
The next second, the figure of Huo Tianzun moving swiftly under the night sky appeared before Qianxun.
Su Qianxun reached out for a hug, "Why are you so late?"
Huo Tianzun smiled slightly, embracing her as they walked to the bed, "Had to deal with some urgent business. Were you cultivating just now?"
He had faintly seen several swaying fox tails when he looked toward her window.
Qianxun nodded and then expressed her frustration, "Yes, the modern Spiritual Energy is too thin. I can’t enhance my Mana. It would be disastrous if I accidentally reverted to my true form."
It wasn’t guaranteed to be completely safe just because she was possessing Su Qianxun’s body. As Yanzhi had said, if her Mana suddenly depleted, her fox tail would definitely be exposed.
Hearing this, Huo Tianzun reassured her, "Don’t worry, I have some ginseng on my side. I’ll get it for you to use as an emergency aid."
Hearing this, Qianxun’s eyes lit up, "With Spiritual Energy?"
Huo Tianzun nodded, "Yes, several demons dug them up from deep in the mountains."
Those ginsengs were highly coveted by many demons at the Demon Management Bureau, but he hadn’t given them to anyone.
