Don't forget it, Dad! Isn't it enough to kneel down for you?

She looked so full of fighting spirit. Zheng Yue smiled when he saw her. "I'm relieved to see you like this. This is the kind of spirit you should show when you participate in a competition."

Hearing this, Chu Jiaojiao was a little surprised, "You called me over here for the competition?"

"What else?" Zheng Yue asked back, looking at her strangely. Is there anything else?

Chu Jiaojiao couldn't help but look at Teacher Wen, speechless. It's just a small thing, why do you look like you're taking advantage of me?

Seeing her like this, Teacher Wen couldn't help but laugh. He cleared his throat and said with some pride, "I am the team leader for this competition. From today on, you will undergo closed training for half a month."

Humph, although she didn't agree to be his last disciple, so what? Now she still had to close the door and call him teacher obediently.

Chu Jiaojiao looked at him blankly, not knowing what was so worth bragging about.

Even at school, she had to call him teacher when she saw him.

It's so weird, I can't figure it out.

Chu Jiaojiao couldn't figure it out, so she simply gave up thinking about it. She familiarly opened the cabinet where Zheng Yue used to store the confiscated snacks and asked eagerly, "Can I take these away before the closed-door training?"

Zheng Yue coughed lightly, didn't dare to speak, and glanced in Zhou Ning's direction.

He has no say in this matter.

Chu Jiaojiao also looked at Zhou Ning.

Leng Wu followed.

Seeing that they were all watching, Teacher Wen just went with the flow.

Meeting their gazes, Zhou Ning's mouth twitched. He walked forward, took out a few packets, and then closed the cabinet door. "Eat."

Only five packs.

Forget it, just eat it as it is.

Chu Jiaojiao sighed, and she didn't say anything since it was free.

Fortunately, this was the student’s choice and none of the food was bad, so Chu Jiaojiao was happy again.

The retreat place was outside, and the school specially arranged a car to take them there.

After getting in the car, Chu Jiaojiao discovered that Chu Xun was also there.

He nodded at her with a smile.

Chu Jiaojiao ignored her, as if she didn't see it. She turned her eyes away, pulled Leng Wu to sit down, and gave him a pack of her biscuits.

"Fourth Brother, have this. It's delicious."

As for Zhou Ning, just watch and see, there is no place for him!

Fortunately, Zhou Ning didn't like snacks to begin with. Seeing Chu Jiaojiao showing off, he pushed her head away speechlessly and said, "Eat yours."

Chu Jiaojiao made a face at him, "Are you really greedy? I won't give you any."

childish.

Zhou Ning's forehead twitched, and he closed his eyes speechlessly, not wanting to talk to her.

But after a while, Chu Jiaojiao came over again with a smile.

Zhou Ning always told her to shut up, but he responded to every word she said.

Everyone can see that they actually have a very good relationship.

Leng Wu didn't say anything, but he didn't feel excluded by the two of them.

The atmosphere between the three of them was indescribably harmonious.

Chu Xun sat in front of them with a smile on his lips, but his hands on his knees were slightly clenched, and his eyes grew colder by the second.

But no one paid any attention.

The car drove for more than an hour and stopped at a place.

There were more than a dozen cars parked on the road, and there were also many students in school uniforms.

Teacher Wen said, "These are the people selected from various schools in South City. You will take a test in a week. Only the top ten will stay and represent South City in the final competition in Beijing."

It turned out to be the case.

Chu Jiaojiao nodded casually, not caring.

When her eyes fell on one of them, she suddenly exclaimed "Huh".

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ning was standing beside her. Seeing that her expression was not right, he immediately asked in a low voice.

Chu Jiaojiao shook her head. "It's okay. I can just figure out which ten people will be competing. Life has become so boring. Sigh, there's nothing I can do about it. I'm just that good."

Zhou Ning: "..." He should just be mute!

Why are you asking when you have nothing to do?

Rolling his eyes in annoyance, he pursed his lips and followed Teacher Wen inside.

Chu Jiaojiao followed him happily and bumped into him, "Hey, are you really angry? I was just teasing you..."

Watching them leave with laughter, Chu Xun lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

The driver knew that he had a bad leg, so he brought a ramp to make it easier for him to get off the bus.

Just as it was about to land, one of the wheels of the wheelchair was hanging in the air and shook violently.

Just as he was about to fall out with his luggage, a hand hurriedly grabbed him, preventing him from falling.

"Thank you." Chu Xun looked up and thanked him.

The one who helped him up was a little girl with two dimples on her face. She looked very pretty when she smiled. She waved her hand casually and said, "It's okay."

Finished talking and left.

Chu Xun looked at her and felt inexplicably familiar.

There were about fifty people there, just enough to fill up an entire classroom.

Chu Jiaojiao pulled Leng Wuxian to occupy a seat in the corner, and Zhou Ning chose a seat in the front row.

Looking at his back, Chu Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was smart and sat in the last row. Otherwise, if he sat behind her, she would not be able to help but shiver at the thought of someone staring at her every time in class.

It's terrible. It's really, really terrible.

As if seeing through her thoughts, Zhou Ning suddenly turned around and smiled at her, "Don't worry, even if I'm sitting in front of you, I'll still watch over you."

He finally realized that Chu Jiaojiao was not stupid, just lazy.

She is doing so well in her studies now. If she works harder, her future achievements will be limitless.

As a friend, he had a responsibility to help her.

Looking at his determined eyes, Chu Jiaojiao suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Sure enough, Zhou Ning did what he said. He looked back at Chu Jiaojiao from time to time during class, which scared Chu Jiaojiao so much that she no longer dared to sleep during class and could only study with a sad face.

She suddenly wanted to fail the exam on purpose.

Zhou Ning will definitely make it to the finals. As long as she fails the exam and doesn't get in, she will be free from him!

By then, he will still be training in seclusion here and unable to go out. If she is outside, can't she be set free?

When Chu Jiaojiao thought of this, she became very excited.

But before she could start implementing her plan, Sheng Jun suddenly called her and said that he was going to Beijing and it would probably take a long time.

Chu Jiaojiao didn't think there was anything wrong at first, as he often went out on missions before. But when she heard his tone was not very good, she asked him a few more questions and found out that he was actually going home.

It was the first time that Chu Jiaojiao knew that the senior brother was actually from Beijing.

Not long after, Qin Wei told her that the relationship between the eldest brother and his family was not good and he had not been back for ten years.

If he suddenly went back, something must have happened.

No, she has to go with him.

It just so happens that this competition is also in Beijing, so I can go and see the senior brother then.

Anyone who dares to bully him will be punished!
