Chapter 304 Meimei's School Days (Part 2)
To get a clear picture of Meimei's abilities, Xiezhi specially organized a classroom quiz at the elementary to junior high school level.
Hao Chen, due to his special circumstances, was brought back by the Xie Zhi to reread the text, and thus also joined the test.
Looking at the densely packed questions on the test paper, Hao Chen felt a headache coming on, and a sense of unease began to rise within him:
"Sigh, I used to get decent grades, and I never got dizzy just looking at test papers. Why don't I want to do elementary school problems now?!"
Hao Chen shook his head, glanced at Xiang Tai and Walnut sitting in front of him, and Mei Mei beside him, and finally chose Xiang Tai.
"I'm sorry, Xie Zhi and Xiang Tai. I don't want to do worse than He Tao and Mei Mei on the exam, so I can only be a porter."
Thanks to Shota, Haochen managed to complete the quiz. Although the final score was somewhat inflated, at least he wasn't at the bottom.
However, this was tough on Walnut. Looking at her bottom-ranked score, Walnut looked incredulous.
"Mr. Xie, are you sure you're not mistaken? Why am I in last place?"
Walnut couldn't understand it. He admitted that his grades were not as good as Shota's, but how could he not even be as good as Mimi, who had never been to school?
The Xie Zhi reached out its paw and patted Walnut's head: "Walnut, this is normal. Although Meimei has never been to school, he has taught himself all the elementary school knowledge, so his foundation is very solid."
The Xie Zhi then looked at Hao Chen and said, "Also, Hao Chen, cheating is not the mark of a good student. I'll let it go this time, but you know the consequences if I catch you cheating again."
Hao Chen was somewhat helpless. As expected, he couldn't hide it from Xie Zhi. However, it was impossible to do the questions honestly now. He would have to think of a more ingenious method next time.
After criticizing Hao Chen, Xie Zhi looked at Mei Mei with satisfaction: "Well, Mei Mei, you're probably at a junior high school level right now. I've specially made a schedule based on your work hours. You can study according to this schedule from now on."
Meimei raised her paw, full of fighting spirit, and said, "Yes, sir, no problem, sir."
And so Hao Chen began his arduous study journey, with no time to bother the residents of Caiyun Mountain. Xie Zhi indirectly helped the residents of Caiyun Mountain.
……
Meanwhile, Tianlu and Bixie lived in Haochen's villa, where they not only had plenty of food and drink, but also had WiFi to play games.
However, Tianlu was somewhat distracted, which resulted in his game with Bixie ending with his own crystal exploding.
"Tianlu, are you alright? Are you hungry again?"
As Bixie was saying this, it prepared to go to the warehouse to find some food, but Tianlu pounced on Bixie's tail.
Then Tianlu kept rubbing its head against Bixie's tail, saying, "Bixie, let's go out and hunt some game."
"Alright then." Bixie couldn't resist Tianlu's coquettishness and had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, he was afraid that if Tianlu rubbed against his tail again, he would pounce on Tianlu.
Along the way, Bixie noticed that Tianlu's mind was not on hunting. Several times, he either stepped on his front paws with his hind paws or tripped over vines on the ground.
Bixie couldn't stand it any longer and stopped Tianlu, looking at him with concern: "Tianlu, you're acting very strange today. Tell me what happened?"
Tianlu looked at Bixie with a wronged expression: "Bixie, do you think I'm stupid?!"
"Tianlu, are you running a fever? Why are you suddenly saying this?" Bixie was shocked. When did his younger brother become so smart? No, his younger brother wasn't stupid at all; he was just a little naive at times.
"It just suddenly occurred to me that we have Haochen with us, so we don't need to be afraid of the Heavenly Court at all, and you don't need to think about any new identity."
"..." Pi Xie was in an emotional state. If Tian Lu hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten about it.
Why didn't Haochen remind them last time? Could it be that Haochen was just waiting to see them make a fool of themselves?
"That wretched Haochen."
Bixie cursed inwardly, then comforted Tianlu: "Tianlu is fine. We're just being cautious. We can't rely on Haochen for everything."
"Hmm...you're right, we have to find the Four-Faced Beast on our own." Tianlu nodded heavily. It was better to be like Bixie, who could comfort him, unlike Haochen who would only make fun of him.
Bixie and Tianlu exchanged a glance, preferring to believe it was their caution rather than admitting that they had forgotten about Haochen.
After figuring things out, Tianlu was in a much better mood, and he discussed with Bixie about changing their plans.
Since Haochen wants Bixie to be his son for once, then there's nothing he can do if Bixie is a little naughty, since Bixie is still a baby.
In short, we can't let Haochen have too much fun.
Just then, a captivating fragrance wafted from afar, immediately catching Tianlu's attention.
"What is this?! It smells so good, I've never smelled anything like it before! Let's see if it can ward off evil spirits."
Needless to say, Bixie understood what Tianlu meant, and rubbed Tianlu's head helplessly: "Let's go, look how hungry you are."
"Bixie, you're the best." Taking advantage of Bixie's surprise, Tianlu gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, making Bixie blush.
Soon, Tianlu and his team found the source of the fragrance.
A small brown dog dressed in red was seen pushing a snack cart, wobbling as it walked towards Tianlu.
"Bo-boiled chicken, fragrant pot-boiled chicken, one yuan a skewer of pot-boiled chicken..."
"Look, it's skewers! They smell so good! Let's go try some!"
Tianlu licked the saliva from the corner of his mouth, grabbed Bixie, and was about to step forward to stop Mitang.
But Tianlu stopped after taking only two steps. Bixie nudged Tianlu and asked, "Why aren't you moving? Don't you want to eat anymore?"
"No, I just thought of something. I'm out of money on my phone. Do you have any money, Pixie?"
“…” Bixie rolled his eyes at Tianlu. “Does your brother look like he’s rich?”
And Tianlu, when did you learn that buying things requires spending money?
Bixie thought, why bother with all that effort? Just go up and eat it. If the puppy doesn't give them any, he'll eat the puppy himself.
However, as soon as the idea of warding off evil was mentioned, it was opposed by Tianlu, who said that he did not want to be captured by the Xie Zhi and taken back to study like Haochen.
Tianlu took out his phone and was instantly embarrassed. He only had a single-digit balance left, and Sibuxiang hadn't received his salary for this month.
"No, I can't ask the Four-Unlikes for wages anymore." Thinking of this, Tianlu became even more melancholy. Without money, he wouldn't be able to recharge and buy skins.
Aside from the four-legged creature, Tianlu couldn't think of anywhere else he could get money.
Just as Tianlu and Bixie were feeling down because they didn't have money to buy skewers, Haochen and the others finished their morning classes.
"Finally school's over!" Hao Chen stretched and looked at Mei Mei and He Tao packing their schoolbags, but in his mind he was thinking about what excuse he could come up with to share a bed with them that night.
"Sir, I'll head back now and come back after get off work!"
Meimei was unaware that Haochen had his eye on her. She was quickly packing her schoolbag, as she had a lot of work to do when she got back.
Seeing that Meimei was in such a hurry, Xie Zhi quickly reminded her, "Okay, be careful on the road, see you this afternoon."
Hao Chen found that brain-intensive tasks were really not his forte. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse. So he decided to be a little shameless that night, figuring that Mei Mei and Walnut wouldn't dare to refuse.
"Let's go see what my eldest son is doing."
Hao Chen stepped in front of Mei Mei and handed her the schoolbag, his meaning clear, giving Mei Mei no time to refuse.
Then Hao Chen appeared behind Bi Xie and asked, "My dear son, what are you doing?"
"Haochen, what did you just call me?!" Bixie squinted at Haochen, then leaped up and pinned Haochen to the ground.
The next moment, the sensation in Hao Chen's ear sent chills down his spine: "Cough cough, Bixie, I mean, what are you doing?"
Upon hearing Hao Chen change his mind, Bi Xie released Hao Chen's ear and then told Tian Lu about the skewers.
When Hao Chen heard that Bi Xie and Tian Lu couldn't afford skewers because they didn't have money, he was speechless and decided to teach Tian Lu and the others how to be good mountain bandits.
"Watch it, I'll only teach it once."
Hao Chen strode up to Mi Tang with an arrogant air, slapping the food cart with his paw, making it rattle loudly: "Kid, do you know whose territory this is? How dare you sell things here? Pay up for protection."
"Um, I didn't know you had to pay protection money to sell things here. I'll leave now."
Mi Tang pushed the cart away, trembling, but Hao Chen had no intention of letting her go: "You come and go as you please, you really don't respect me at all."
Mi Tang grabbed a spoon from the side and used it as a weapon against Hao Chen: "What do you want? I'm not afraid of you."
Seeing how scared Mi Tang was, Hao Chen was worried that he might scare her into fainting, and then there would be no dog to make skewers for them.
"Alright, I won't scare you anymore. The three of us brothers will eat here today."
However, Hao Chen suddenly remembered the existence of the Xie Zhi, and after thinking for a moment, he took out a pile of meat from his storage space: "I won't take advantage of you. Please handle this meat, and the rest can be used as payment for our meal."
Under Hao Chen's coercion and enticement, Mi Tang was forced to stay and specially cook a pot of chicken for Hao Chen and Tian Lu Bi Xie.
Haochen was having a great time eating, but Meimei was suffering terribly. Not only did she have to quickly finish her work at the Deer Man store, she also had to rush to do her homework.
After all, when Meimei took Haochen's schoolbag, Haochen told her to quickly finish her homework and then imitate his handwriting to write his homework for her as well.
Left with no other choice, Meimei had to speed up her writing.
