Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

Zixiao looked back.

"Brother, why aren't you eating? Don't you have much of an appetite? You can eat before the exam."

"No, Zixiao..." Yu Zhe simply asked directly, "Don't you usually forbid me from eating these snacks, like cookies and chocolates? Why are you doing this today?"

... "

Could this be a test from Zixiao, a test of my self-awareness?

Hmph, luckily we discovered it early, otherwise Zixiao would have been disappointed again after that bite.

However, this time it really wasn't as Yu Zhe guessed.

Zixiao realized what Yuzhe was thinking, chuckled twice, and then took the initiative to pick up a chocolate bar and put it to Yuzhe's lips.

"Brother doesn't understand. Chocolate itself is fine as long as you eat it in moderation. I just don't trust those packaged snacks. This box of chocolates is homemade, so there's no problem with it."

She added after saying that, "But you can't eat too much!"

Did you make it yourself?

No wonder there was no packaging! Upon closer inspection, the chocolate bar even has delicate heart-shaped patterns. How detailed!

Yu Zhe was indeed surprised. He knew that making chocolate from scratch was very difficult, especially making such exquisite chocolate bars, which was even more difficult than making a delicate lunch.

He said that when he was still half asleep when he woke up in the morning, he saw Zixiao in the kitchen with that chocolate stirring tool. He didn't pay attention at the time, but it turned out that she was making this.

Yu Zhe opened his mouth, and Zi Xiao held it for him. He gently took a bite and savored it carefully.

Hmm... It's sweet, and the sweetness is just right.

Little Lychee's eyes lit up: "Wow! Zixiao is so amazing! Can you teach me? I want to make chocolate for Yu... for myself too!"

Waaaaah, is this what survival instinct is? Little Lychee felt like she would have been beaten up if she hadn't changed her mind.

Zixiao handed the tin box back to Yuzhe, then turned to Xiaolizhi and said, "It's nothing difficult. I'll teach you next time I have time. Let's take care of your exam first."

"Great!"

Little Lychee was overjoyed. Chocolate is one of her favorite snacks, and her parents don't let her buy it. But making it herself would definitely be a different story.

"Brother Yuzhe, can I try some too? It looks delicious, wow!"

Uh… Zixiao slapped the back of my hand hard.

Just as Xiaolizhi reached for the chocolate bar in the tin box, her hand was intercepted by Zixiao in mid-air.

After finishing, Zixiao said calmly, "These aren't for you to eat, they're for my brother to prevent low blood sugar, understand?"

"Hmm... I understand."

Seeing Xiaolizhi covering her hand with a wronged expression, Yu Zhe smiled wryly and said, "I think it's okay. There are still so many left. Xiaolizhi can take some if she wants."

Zixiao didn't say anything this time. Since her brother had said so, she would listen to him.

But this time, having received permission, Little Lychee became quite self-aware: "No... Zixiao already said these things are helpful for your body, Brother Yuzhe, so I can wait... next time!"

Little Lychee went through a painful struggle, but for Yu Zhe's health, she chose to temporarily give up delicious food!

This is a huge step forward for Little Lychee!

"You really won't eat?"

"Hmm, I really won't eat it!"

"Haha, then just watch me eat."

I must say, Little Lychee really showed perseverance this time.

Moreover, the chocolate bars that Zixiao made were really delicious; Yuzhe ate several in a row.

Zixiao and Xiaolizhi took out their math workbooks and started reviewing. The math exam in the afternoon was extremely important.

After reminding Yu Zhe to eat less, Zi Xiao concentrated on reviewing her lessons.

As for Xiao Lizhi... she also wanted to study, but her attention was constantly focused on the dwindling chocolate bar in Yu Zhe's hand, and his lips...

Hmm... I can't stop drooling.

She tried her best to focus on the textbook, but it only lasted a few seconds. It was as if a magnetic force pulled her head and drew her gaze back to Yu Zhe.

The sight of Brother Yu Zhe eating so contentedly while sitting on a small stone bench gazing into the distance truly made Little Lychee feel relaxed and happy.

She didn't know when it started... but her attention slowly shifted away from the chocolate bar. Yu Zhe, who was eating the chocolate bar, looked so handsome. In Xiao Lizhi's eyes, he seemed to be radiating a kind of moonlight.

Ugh... how am I supposed to study like this? I can't control my heart rate at all, and the numbers in the workbook are completely irrelevant.

Before I knew it, there was only one chocolate bar left in the tin box.

They ate pretty quickly.

Seeing this, Zixiao complained, "Brother, why are you eating so fast? Eating too much isn't good!"

"Ah...this is too delicious! Zixiao's cooking skills have improved, and there's nothing I can do about it."

A word of praise, a sharp arrow, struck right into Zixiao's heart.

Although she shouldn't let her brother eat too much of this sweet stuff, his praise made Zixiao want to make more chocolate.

The feeling of being recognized by her brother made Zixiao feel lightheaded, and without realizing it, she covered her flushed cheeks with her workbook.

Yu Zhe shook his head helplessly. "Hey, what's there to be shy about? It's really delicious. Just accept the praise and that's it."

Taking advantage of Zixiao's covered face so she couldn't see this side, Yuzhe took out the last chocolate bar and said, "Let's finish it, there's only one left anyway."

So he put the chocolate bar in his mouth and savored it slowly, bit by bit.

But what he didn't know was that Xiao Lizhi, who was waiting in the wings, was also seizing the opportunity while Zixiao was covering her face.

She didn't know where she got the courage, but whenever her heartbeat reached a certain speed, Xiao Lizhi always felt that she could do things that she couldn't do normally.

Like right now!

She used her fastest speed, almost instantly, to quietly maintain...

She was sitting, leaning her upper body forward and her little head out.

Yu Zhe felt a faint golden light rapidly expanding in his field of vision, eventually reaching him directly.

Before he could even be surprised, Little Lychee bit the other end of the chocolate bar in his mouth from the side, and then bit hard, breaking the chocolate bar in two.

When the lips finally broke and Xiaolizhi pulled her head back, they were only inches apart, almost touching.

This process was basically uneventful.

Yu Zhe was so surprised. He thought Xiao Lizhi was reckless today, but he never expected her to be this reckless!

As for the "culprit," Little Lychee, she turned her head to the back, in a direction where Yu Zhe couldn't see her face, and like a kitten that had stolen a fish, she seemed to be quickly eating the half-eaten chocolate bar in her mouth.

Just then, Zixiao put the workbook down in front of her and looked at Yuzhe's surprised expression, which puzzled her.

Zixiao tilted her head and asked, "Brother, did you finish the last one too?"

Little Lychee, blushing slightly, turned to Yu Zhe. She had already finished half of the chocolate bar, and after her eyes darted left and right for a while, she said to Yu Zhe in a light and slightly embarrassed tone.

"Thank you for the treat..."

51. Lu Ling and Lu Yao's exam?

"Hospitality?" Zixiao was completely baffled by Xiaolizhi's sudden question. "What hospitality? What did I do to entertain you?"

"this…"

Little Lychee, on the contrary, became a little nervous, as if she had done something wrong.

What was I just doing?! Even though it was a good deal… it was way too “brave”!

Little Lychee herself was quite impressed with herself! But then there was this situation…

She glanced at Zixiao, then at Yuzhe, looking back and forth for a long time before finally fixing her gaze on Yuzhe, as if to say, "Brother Yuzhe, save me!"

But who is Yu Zhe? He just wants to be a bystander, even though he's also involved. But what can he do? He's just naturally a bit cunning.

So you'll have to explain this yourself; you gave me a fright just now.

Therefore, Xiao Lizhi only saw Yu Zhe sitting there smiling, seemingly wanting to see how Xiao Lizhi would perform.

Zixiao found it increasingly strange and continued to press, "What's wrong with you? Could it be... that you've done something wrong?"

"No...no! No! I do have something to hide..."

Little Lychee, quick-witted as ever, continued, "I was really craving that chocolate bar... so I took the last one and ate it without permission... I'm sorry..."

"That's it?"

Zixiao was a little skeptical. Was it really necessary for you to be so hesitant about such a small matter?

However, it's not necessarily true that Xiao Lizhi has a thought process that's different from normal people.

Zixiao looked up at her suspiciously again, then lowered her head again to review her workbook.

In short, Xiao Lizhi managed to gloss over the matter.

Yu Zhe mentally gave Xiao Lizhi a thumbs up for her performance this time. Not only did she save herself, but more importantly, she also helped Yu Zhe.

Didn't Zixiao just say he shouldn't eat too much? Xiaolizhi said she stole the last one, which in a way helped Yuzhe.

So Yu Zhe reached out and ruffled her fluffy blonde hair to encourage her: "Not bad, not bad. Your little brain can still do things if you want to."

"Um…"

Little Lychee was still somewhat immersed in the afterglow of what had just happened. Feeling Yu Zhe's hand stroking her head, she was actually a little annoyed. Why hadn't she moved closer earlier?!

Maybe...maybe we'll be able to kiss? Waaah, Little Lychee, you're still such a silly girl!

This interaction did not last long.

Because Zixiao is watching this time.

"Brother! Hands! Keep your distance!"

"!"

This startled Yu Zhe again, and he quickly removed his hand from the top of Xiao Lizhi's head.

Oh no, I can already smell the vinegar in the air. Yu Zhe understood and sat down next to Zi Xiao to help her review the material for her afternoon exam.

Little Lychee took a few deep breaths to calm herself down and got into study mode. Although the exam was not far away, she knew she had to work hard to get first place in the grade and win Yu Zhe's reward!
