Xia Ze, who knew the plot well, understood Liu Mei's character very well. He could only say earnestly, "Dad and Aunt Liu Mei are a legally married couple. Not only me, but you and Xiaoyu also have to call her Mom."
"Of course, if you don't like it, we can call her Auntie for now. Once you've observed her well enough, I'll help you change how you address her."
"Hehe, you're so nice, brother!" Xia Xue felt a little sad after hearing Xia Ze's earlier words, but she felt much better after hearing his later words.
Xia Ze shook his head helplessly.
Xiaoxue is very perceptive and always felt that stepmothers would bully them, just like in TV dramas.
The reason for this is that Xiaoxue and Xiaoyu were assigned to Xia Donghai, and they have never had a mother since they were young.
The sudden appearance of her stepmother triggered her to instinctively begin protecting herself.
"By the way, brother, I've been wondering all day, how did you recognize me at the airport after we haven't seen each other for over ten years?"
After returning home from the airport, Xia Xue kept thinking about this question.
Xia Ze patted Xiao Xue's head and said mysteriously, "Actually, I have a special ability; I can tell someone's identity at a glance."
"Tch!" Hearing this explanation, Xia Xue rolled her eyes dismissively: "Do you think I'm Xiaoyu, that I'd believe something like that?"
Chapter Four: An Invitation from an Elite High School!
Xia Ze shrugged and didn't explain further. He couldn't very well say that he had watched "Home with Kids" in his past life!
"Hmph! Fine, don't tell me then." Xiaoxue huffed arrogantly and went back to her room.
Xia Ze also picked up the new bathrobe and slippers that Liu Mei had prepared, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then returned to his room.
Inside the room, Xia Ze lay on the bed.
He could feel Liu Mei and Xia Donghai's care for him from the new quilt, new mattress, new pillow and other items.
The warmth of home made Xia Ze feel very comfortable. Although he had lived two lives, his family in his previous life was full of emotional abuse.
For the first sixteen years of this life, he lived abroad with his biological mother, Mary, but Mary was a workaholic and rarely stayed at home.
"I wonder if Xiaoxue and her parents like the gift I gave them?"
Having brought gifts for Liu Xing and Xiao Yu, Xia Ze naturally wouldn't forget the gifts for Xiao Xue, Xia Donghai, and Liu Mei.
Before the meal, he personally placed the gifts in their room.
…………
"You brat, you said you spoil me, but you brought gifts for Liu Xing and Xiao Yu but not for me."
Xia Xue pushed open the door to her room and muttered to herself, feeling somewhat aggrieved.
Seeing that Xia Ze had brought gifts for Liu Xing and Xiao Yu, she was really looking forward to her own gift.
But after waiting for a long time, Xia Ze still didn't give her a gift.
Filled with resentment, Xiaoxue turned on the light and plopped down on the bed. Just as she was about to complain, she noticed a bulge under the blanket.
Xia Xue curiously lifted the blanket, revealing an exquisite gift box inside.
"You brat, so you haven't forgotten me after all!"
Xia Xue's resentment dissipated upon seeing the gift, and she eagerly opened the gift box.
"This is?"
"An animal encyclopedia personally signed by Professor Yang, a book personally signed by Professor Chad, and a short story personally signed by Professor Alice..."
Xia Xue was overjoyed to see these books.
Unlike Liu Xing and Xiao Yu, who love to play, Xia Xue is the perfect child in everyone's eyes, and her hobby is reading!
These books, personally signed by the original authors, are the best gifts for her.
the other side.
Liu Mei was nestled in Xia Donghai's arms.
The two looked with satisfaction at the several pieces of clothing made of excellent fabric in front of them; these were Xia Ze's gifts to them.
Expensive clothes are nothing special, but these few pieces of clothing in front of them hit the spot perfectly.
Because this is neither a suit nor an expensive formal dress, but a custom-made family outfit.
From Xia Donghai and Liu Mei to Xia Yu, even their grandfather's and maternal grandfather's clothes are all available.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Liu Mei looked up at Xia Donghai with happiness: "Xiao Ze is such a sensible child."
"Yes, she's sensible and knows how to choose gifts."
.........
Back in Xia Ze's room.
He was still awake at this time, but sat on the bed, opened his laptop, and logged into an international communication software.
Upon returning to China, his IP address naturally changed from overseas to domestic.
"Ding dong!"
At this moment, a private message appeared in the software's backend, but Xia Ze didn't pay much attention to it.
Because he has received over 999 private messages in his inbox!
He can be considered a very famous internet celebrity on this software, because he often records songs and posts them online, which has attracted a lot of fans.
"Ding-dong!" Another private message.
This time, Xia Ze didn't overlook the fact that the other party's online name was "Principal of Kyoto Elite Middle School".
He recognized the name; he had chatted with the person a few times before.
[Xia Ze, have you returned to China yet?]
Welcome back to China. What are your thoughts on the matters we discussed earlier?
If you're willing to come to our elite high school, all the benefits we discussed before will be doubled!
[Xia Ze, please reply when you're online. The doors of our elite high school are always open for you.]
Seeing these private messages, Xia Ze fell into thought. He had not considered elite middle schools before.
But now he has returned to China, and according to the description of this elite high school principal, the school is in Kyoto, and it is one of the top high schools in Kyoto.
And the other party's treatment is indeed very good, with a scholarship of 100 million yuan per semester and direct admission to Tsinghua and Peking Universities, as well as some other miscellaneous benefits.
Of course, there's a prerequisite: his grades can't drop.
Xia Ze understood this premise, since the other party was willing to offer such conditions because of his achievements.
Xia Ze is known as a genius abroad, and hundreds of top public schools around the world have extended offers to him.
Even universities like Stanford, MIT, and Harvard contacted him, asking if he would be willing to attend their universities in the future.
It was precisely because of his extraordinary achievements that the principal of the elite high school was willing to pay a high price to poach him.
While the benefits offered by elite schools are indeed good in China, they are nothing compared to those offered by top public schools abroad.
"Elite High School... Why does that name sound so familiar?"
In fact, Xia Ze didn't care about the treatment or anything like that. He just wanted to experience the warmth of home and the youthful life at school.
As for this elite high school, he felt that the name was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
But for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
[Xia Ze, you're finally online! What's your decision?]
[By the way, Xia Ze, let me tell you another insider secret: Elite High School will become the most prestigious high school in Kyoto within the next two years!]
Resources from other top high schools in Kyoto will be allocated to this elite high school, ensuring it will have the best teachers and teaching resources in the future.
I can't say much more than that, but I can assure you that if you come to our elite high school, you'll definitely be in this class.
Chapter 5: A Girl Who Dreams of Nanjing University (Seeking Flowers and Reviews)
"A cram school? That's interesting." Xia Ze grasped the key point from the words of the elite high school principal.
In the next two years, elite secondary schools will open intensive preparation classes with access to the best teaching resources.
If Xia Ze wasn't mistaken, the minimum goal for this class was to attend a 985 or 211 university.
Of course, this is just Xia Ze's guess. After all, everyone has their own goals, such as his online friend, "a girl whose dream is to attend Nanjing University."
The other person was an online friend he met two years ago through a message in a bottle, and Xia Ze never asked for their specific name.
All I know is that she also lives in Kyoto, and her hobbies include astronomy and building blocks. Her dream, like her online name, is to get into the Department of Astronomy at Nanjing University.
However, her mother did not seem to support her, and like many parents in China, she believed that her child must go to Tsinghua or Peking University.
Furthermore, her mother has a very strong personality, which often leads her to not dare to vent her grievances but instead talk to Xia Ze on the phone to confide in him.
Over time, the two became close online friends who could talk about anything, but unfortunately, they never met in real life.
"I wonder if we'll ever meet again in Kyoto?" Xia Ze glanced at his friends in the background; she wasn't online at the moment.
"Well, Kyoto is so big, it's fate if we meet. If we don't, we can just be online friends!"
