Chapter 155: 154 Friendly reminder: Don’t mess with Sister Ye_2

Xia Ye now received his WeChat message and could still recall the day he asked her if she had a little crush on him.

At first, she felt a bit awkward, but then on second thought, being targeted by her ancient ancestor was a glory of monumental proportions, so what was there to be awkward about?

With that in mind, she replied very generously with an emoji making the OK gesture.

After class, Xia Ye excused herself to Tang Tianjiao, clutching a set of review materials in her hand as she headed out of the school.

Zhou Yao, being particularly gossip-hungry, asked Tang Tianjiao, "Who is Ye Bao going out to dinner with tonight? Summer God? Or maybe... President Jiang?"

Tang Tianjiao replied very seriously, "Don’t worry about who it is, they’re both men we’ll never get!"

Acutely pointed.

Zhou Yao tearfully felt inferior.

When Xia Ye arrived, Jiang Xuan had already ordered the dishes, saving her time.

The small restaurant wasn’t that big but it was clean, and Xia Ye liked the food they served.

Moreover, the boss of the restaurant was also born in the Year of the Rooster.

The restaurant was usually filled with students without any private rooms.

The best quiet spot was just behind a screen, offering a little more peace.

Jiang Xuan was sitting there.

He pulled out the seat next to him for Xia Ye, who, without overthinking, directly took the spot.

The two sitting side by side during the meal was rather intimate.

Jiang Xuan wasn’t very hungry that evening; it was mainly to watch Xia Ye eat. He ordered a plate of shrimp, washed his hands, and with disposable gloves on, began to peel the shrimp for Xia Ye.

He noticed that Xia Ye seemed a bit distracted while eating today, holding a Chinese language review book and reading it as she ate.

The page she was on contained ancient poetry appreciation reading questions.

After he added a few shrimps to her bowl, she picked them up and ate them without looking, likely not even aware of what was entering her mouth.

Jiang Xuan had never seen her study this intently before, not even when she would "cultivate spiritual energy."

It appeared that school was indeed a fascinating place.

Even a little fox could learn to obey.

Xia Ye liked meat and disliked vegetables, her chopsticks only reaching for the meat dishes. The plate of greens beside her looked the same then as when it was first served.

Given that she didn’t even glance at her bowl while picking up food, Jiang Xuan tried to slip some greens into it.

Sure enough, seconds later, Xia Ye, focusing on her book, shoved a mouthful of rice covered in spinach into her mouth.

Her small mouth chewed for a bit, then two seconds later, sensing something was off, her chewing abruptly stopped, her eyebrows furrowed, and she finally diverted her gaze from the book to Jiang Xuan’s face.

Her expression was filled with silent reproach, as if to say: I trusted you so much, and you dared to trick me!

Jiang Xuan watched her for two seconds, then unconsciously, a shallow smile crept over his brows.

Even eating a mouthful of vegetables was like being subjected to punishment.

She really was a little ancestor.

Jiang Xuan nodded toward the book in her hand, "Do you have exams coming up?"

Xia Ye took a big gulp of water, trying to dilute the strong taste of spinach in her mouth.

"Mhm, the beginning of next month."

After scanning the reading comprehension questions in her hand, she put down her chopsticks and flipped to the back for the answers.

The answers in the review materials were all compiled at the end, which made checking them a bit inconvenient.

However, she wasn’t very certain about this question, so she decided to check anyway.

Just as she began to flip through the pages, the man seated beside her suddenly spoke with a light voice and a slow pace: "A."

Xia Ye turned her head to look at him: "?"

Jiang Xuan took a sip from his tea cup, "The answer to that question is A."

At the same time, Xia Ye’s hand just reached the answer page, and glancing at it confirmed that it was indeed A.

She had chosen A as well, but the question was a tricky one. Jiang Xuan had only glanced at it briefly and could immediately give the correct answer, which surprised her: "You like ancient texts too?"

Jiang Xuan nodded slightly, "Somewhat interested."

In the past, someone would enjoy creating spontaneously when drunk.

That’s how he began to learn about ancient literature.

Xia Ye’s curiosity about him was always greater than about others, "Do you have a particular favorite piece of ancient literature?"

She wanted to see if she and her fellow Taoist cultivator were compatible.

If they had any common interests.

Jiang Xuan, seemingly without hesitation, lifted his eyelids and met her gaze directly, "My favorite is ’Leisure and Fun Record.’

Xia Ye: ...

She was thinking about a few well-known ancient texts she enjoyed, waiting to hear if Uncle Jiang would think the same as her.

Unexpectedly, although Uncle Jiang didn’t name those texts, he directly revealed her hand.

The ancient text she liked was included in the elective Chapters of the high school curriculum and had only become a required part of the university entrance exams this year.
