“Brother Shi Chao, with you here this time, we finally made Old Zhong and his gang cry in pain. It feels so satisfying!”
On the way back, Wang Zeguang was excited, his face glowing red, as proud as a general who had won a battle. As he walked, he waved his fists in the air, as if he hadn’t had enough of the fight just now.
Shi Chao now realized for the first time that his girlfriend was so good at fighting. He occasionally glanced at her, secretly worried about his future position in the family.
Liu Lili glanced lightly at Wang Zeguang, showing little interest, and said, “What’s there to be proud of about winning a fight? It’s not as good as getting a good score in an exam.”
After all, they couldn’t make a living by fighting once they graduated, right?
“Brother Shi Chao, you’ve changed. You used to fight to protect my pocket money, but now you’re giving up your last place in the rankings to me!”
Wang Zeguang exaggeratedly pretended to be heartbroken : “I saw that you filled every answer sheet this time. Your overall score on the test is probably higher than mine, right? Brother Shi Chao, you’re not leaving me any room to survive!”
Liu Lili patted his shoulder and sighed in despair, “Don’t worry, I filled in the answers randomly, they’re not the correct ones…”
However, before she could finish speaking, Shi Chao reached over and pulled her hand off Wang Zeguang’s shoulder.
“Li—you can’t touch other guys!”
He almost mentioned her name but managed to stop himself in time. The girl pouted, clearly jealous, leaving their buddies walking with them astonished.
It was the first time they had seen such a willful girl who was jealous over a good relationship between her boyfriend and another guy.
What could two guys possibly do?
Were they going to cheat on her?
The buddies just couldn’t figure it out.
Especially Wang Zeguang, who pointed at himself and said, “Sister-in-law, rest assured, I have no interest in guys at all. Brother Shi Chao and I are absolutely clean, we’ve never even held hands!”
Liu Lili wanted to laugh, but unfortunately, her poker face wouldn’t allow it.
She could only nod vigorously at Shi Chao, saying, “Alright, alright, I won’t touch anyone else.”
Wang Zeguang couldn’t help but softly remind from the side, “Brother Shi Chao, you can’t spoil your girlfriend like this! She’s already so strict while you’re dating, won’t she be even more controlling after you get married?”
Lu Lili was indifferent, “It’s fine, I want to be with him1 forever, even if it means being strict.”
Wang Zeguang : “…” Okay, he shouldn’t have said anything!
Shi Chao : “…” He didn’t want Lili talking to other guys!
So, when would they be able to switch back to their own bodies? ┐(´-｀)┌
It was a rare occasion, that students to have a day off on Sunday and Zhao Fen also happened to have a day off.
Seeing her daughter sitting on the sofa watching a soccer game on TV, Zhao Fen sat down and asked with concern, “Lili, how do you feel about this month’s exams?”
She wasn’t unaware of her daughter’s study situation, but she had noticed Lili working hard lately and was eager to know the results of her efforts.
Shi Chao had also been doing a good job playing the role of Lu Lili.
He frowned upon hearing Zhao Fen’s question and answered with a somewhat unpleasant expression, “Mom, I don’t think I did well. My results might not be ideal…”
Zhao Fen sighed quietly upon hearing this but didn’t press her daughter. She had only become more determined.
“Lili, if the results aren’t great, Mom will enroll you in some tutoring classes. We must improve your grades!”
After her divorce, Zhao Fen had personally realized the importance of financial independence for adult women.
However, for ordinary women like them without a wealthy family background, there was only one path to achieving respectable financial independence—
Study hard, get into a good university, and choose a good major!
