Chapter 20 - Gorgeous

After hanging up the phone, he checked the caller's ID, only to discover that it was Xia Wei'an's sister, Xia Tianzhen.

He had always thought that Xia Wei'an had been living well and was pampered by the Xia family, which resulted in her bratty personality. Only after the call last night did he understand that her life didn't seem to be as carefree as it seemed to be on the surface. 

If she really took out the contract and handed it to him, he would not hesitate to sign it. He wanted to let the Xia family know that Xia Wei'an was very important to him and that Xia Wei'an would easily achieve what Xia Zhenwei could not settle. He wanted to ensure that the Xia family wouldn't dare to despise her again and start worshiping her like she was the God of Wealth!

"Something is wrong! I have to hurry up and take care of it, or I won't have the time to do so later." 

Xia Wei'an hurriedly licked the cream off of her fingertips and grabbed her schoolbag that was at the side. She unzipped it and took out a stack of papers, and then handed it to Di Xingchen. 

"I don't know how to do these math questions. Teach me how to do them." 

She then pulled out a tissue from the paper box, wiped her hands thoroughly, and then dragged a stool to sit beside Di Xingchen. Placing her hands together on her knees, she listened attentively like an obedient student. 

Di Xingchen was stunned, but he didn't ask her about the contract and instead picked up the white paper on the table to look at the questions carefully. 

The high school academic syllabus was a piece of cake for him, and he could come up with the answers almost immediately after reading the questions. He chose the simplest solution and began teaching it to her. 

Xia Wei'an was extremely intelligent, and she would sometimes grasp the idea before Di Xingchen finished explaining. She could even give him some examples. There were a few questions that were of the same type, and after grasping the general idea, the remaining questions became much easier. Hence, her thoughts began to wander. 

She shifted her gaze up from Di Xingchen's finger before finally fixing it on his side profile. 

They were seated by the window, and at this moment, the sunlight from the window was shining in from outside, casting on Di Xingchen's perfect face and making his cold aura a little mellower. 

He was an affectionate and attractive man. How could she have not been touched by such a good man in her previous life!?! 

After criticizing her past self for a while, she gazed at Di Xingchen with admiration and awe like a smitten and boy-crazy girl. 

"Since you don't understand, why don't you listen attentively?"

Di Xingchen had already sensed her burning gaze, but he kept finding her attitude to be rather strange lately. He was afraid that he would misunderstand and reciprocate wrongly, which might end up straining their relationship further. Hence, he chose not to respond and simply accept them. 

"They all say that understanding one concept will allow you to understand all other concepts. Since you've already explained the solution in such detail from the beginning, I naturally know how to do it!" Xia Wei'an smiled sweetly. She then picked up a plate and placed some pastries on it before handing it to him. 

"You must be hungry too, eat some!"

Di Xingchen nodded at her, but instead of wolfing the food down brashly like she did, he used a fork and ate slowly. 

His actions were extremely graceful. 'This man looks so good even when he's eating.' 

'He's so attractive!'

Supporting her head in one hand and resting it on the table, she looked at him with her eyes full of affection. 

All of a sudden, the phone in her pocket vibrated because there were new notifications. It was a message from Lu Yuxuan, disturbing her from admiring a handsome man. Not wanting to respond to it, she slid her thumb across the screen in a bid to delete it, but she accidentally opened the message, only to see a few screenshots. She glanced at it and her eyes became wide open. She then slammed her hand against the table and stood up. 

"Damn!"
