Chapter 107 Ning Xi's Progress

"I... I really like it!"

Knowing she would say that, Ye Fan seized the opportunity, "Since you like it so much, shouldn't you thank me?"

"..."

Ning Xi stared at Ye Fan, speechless. She had never encountered someone so shameless. Feeling a bit defiant, she asked, "How do you want me to thank you?"

She didn't believe Ye Fan would make any demands.

But...

The next second, she knew she was wrong.

Ye Fan took the test papers from her hand, put them back in her bag, and said with a smile, "It's simple. We'll have our tutoring session in the morning this weekend, and in the afternoon, you can accompany me to go shopping. I've been in Imperial Capital for almost a month, and I haven't had a chance to explore properly."

He spread his hands innocently. "That's not too much to ask, is it?"

"What do you think?"

"It's not too much."

"..."

Ning Xi was furious, her face flushed. Went out shopping alone with a boy, and he said it wasn't too much to ask. It was too much!!!

She was about to refuse, but before she could open her mouth, Ye Fan spoke first. "You've finished your lemonade, and Uncle Zhuang is still waiting at the gate. You should go home."

"I..."

"Let's go, I'll walk you out."

"You..."

"No need to thank me, it's only natural."

"..."

In a daze, Ning Xi was pulled by Ye Fan to the gate of the residential area. The breeze blew on her face, and she finally realized something was wrong.

Wait a minute! Why did she have to go shopping with Ye Fan this weekend?

She turned around, but Ye Fan had already disappeared. She stomped her foot angrily.

Ah—

Only after the car had driven away did Ye Fan emerge from behind a landscape tree at the gate. He was in a good mood.

Not only had Ning Xi accepted his confession gift, but she had also agreed to go shopping with him on the weekend. Although his methods weren't entirely honest, as long as he achieved his goal, it was a good method.

Since his future mother-in-law had given him her approval, Ye Fan couldn't let her down. He had to get rid of the "future" part as soon as possible.

"Click—"

Back home, as soon as Ye Fan closed the door, the system's sweet voice rang in his mind.

"Ding—"

"Kindness and generosity, the system is evaluating..."

Ye Fan's eyes lit up. It seemed that the books he had donated had finally reached those in need. Sitting down on the sofa, he patiently waited for the system's evaluation.

Over three hundred books, what level could they reach?

"Evaluation: Grade C, reward 10 Merit Points."

When the system's voice rang in his mind, Ye Fan shook his head in disappointment. It was still Grade C. He had thought it could reach Grade B, which would give him 100 Merit Points.

Unexpectedly, it was still Grade C, just like last time!

However, Ye Fan was not a greedy person. He quickly accepted this fact. Grade C it was, at least he had 10 Merit Points. He would take it slow.

[Host]: Ye Fan

[Knowledge]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Intelligence]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Strength]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Medical Skills]: Level 3 (0/2000)

[Merit Points]: 20

[Experience Points]: 356

"It's still a long way from 2000 experience points!"

Ye Fan sighed. Since upgrading all his abilities to Level 3, the efficiency of gaining experience points was completely disproportionate to the experience points required for further upgrades.

Based on the current situation, he would need a massive amount of time to upgrade his Medical Skills to Level 9. There were still more than five years before his mother's illness was diagnosed, he had to hurry.

Ye Fan suppressed the many thoughts in his mind and took out his phone, checking the date. April 12th. A smile appeared on his face.

April 18th, this weekend, was his birthday.

Ning Xi's birthday was July 18th, and he was April 18th, exactly three months, or 91 days, apart.

Ye Fan remembered this very clearly, and it was one of the main reasons why he had asked Ning Xi to go shopping with him on the weekend. Although he didn't care much about his birthday, it would be meaningful if he could spend it with Ning Xi.

In his previous life, he had never celebrated his birthday since he was nine years old because his father had died in a car accident on that day. It wasn't until he met Ning Xi that he started celebrating again.

During the three years after his mother's death, Ning Xi celebrated his birthday every year.

Memories flooded his mind, and Ye Fan's eyes softened. He sat alone on the sofa for a long, long time, all his thoughts eventually turning into a sigh.

Live in the present, cherish what you have, and let go of regrets and grudges.

Since heaven had given him a second chance at life, he couldn't let down God's kindness. In this life, he would live freely and love purely.

Flowers bloom towards the sun—

The next day.

There was a tense atmosphere among the senior classes. Both students and teachers felt the pressure on their shoulders. Throughout the morning, teachers explained key knowledge points, and students listened attentively.

Sharpening one's sword on the eve of battle, even if it doesn't become sharper, it will still shine.

"Ring!" The bell rang.

Ye Fan closed his book and looked at Ning Xi beside him, admiration flashing in his eyes.

A black oversized hoodie, jeans, and white sneakers. The girl made them look extraordinary. Her black hair cascaded down her back and shoulders, making her already fair neck look even more delicate. Her exquisite collarbones peeked out from the neckline of her hoodie, breathtakingly beautiful.

Finally, Ye Fan's gaze landed on her beautiful face, his eyes as clear and gentle as a mountain spring. "Xiao Xi, it's time for lunch."

"Wait a minute."

Ning Xi seemed to have forgotten about yesterday's unpleasantness. Her eyes were focused, her mind completely absorbed in the test paper.

The midday sun streamed through the window, bathing her in a golden glow, making her serene and gentle beauty even more captivating, a silent testament to the tranquility of time.

Ye Fan smiled faintly, opened his book again, and continued reading silently.

In less than three minutes, only the two of them were left in the classroom. The only sounds were the rustling of paper and the soft turning of pages.

"Done!"

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Xi put down her pen, her face beaming with excitement. She pushed the test paper in front of Ye Fan and blinked mischievously. "Teacher Ye, can you please grade it for me?"

"Sure."

Ye Fan's eyes crinkled with amusement as he picked up his pen and scanned the test paper quickly. After looking through the entire paper, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

All correct?!

The test paper was one of the ones from yesterday's gift. He had written every question himself and knew how difficult it was. Moreover, all the questions were targeted at Ning Xi's weaknesses, he hadn't expected her to get a perfect score.

She was improving so fast!

Seeing Ye Fan staring at the test paper in silence, Ning Xi blinked nervously and asked tentatively, "How did I do? What... what's my score?"

Ye Fan smiled and asked back, "How many points do you think you can get?"

"Um... 120?"

Ning Xi wasn't very confident. She had felt good while doing it, but the test papers Ye Fan gave her were always so difficult. Her best score was only 120.

"Wrong."

"110?"

"Wrong."

"100?"

Her voice grew quieter with each guess.

The corners of Ye Fan's mouth twitched. He pinched Ning Xi's cheek, which was still a little chubby. The amazingly soft touch made him reluctant to let go. He said with a smile, "Full marks."

Being pinched on the cheek in the classroom, Ning Xi's face flushed slightly. She was about to protest, but the words "full marks" instantly drove the thought from her mind.

Full marks?

Full marks!!!

"I... I got full marks?"

"Yes."

After receiving Ye Fan's confirmation, Ning Xi clapped her hands on the desk, her dimples appearing, her eyes sparkling with joy. "Wow, I got full marks on the test paper you made. I'm so lucky!"

Ye Fan smiled along, his eyes filled with adoration, and he reached out to tuck a few strands of hair behind Ning Xi's ear. "There's no such thing as uninvited luck, only well-prepared surprises."

"Tha... thank you."

The girl's clear, autumn-water-like eyes lowered, the blush on her face speaking volumes more than any words could.
