Si Lijue initially thought that as long as Xia An 'an was happy, it would be fine. However, he soon regretted it. Because when this girl was serious, she couldn't tell the difference between day and night!
Si Lijue had already worked very late. When he put down the last document that he had finished reading, he realized that Xia An 'an was still reading. She was curled up on the small sofa next to him, reading and taking notes at the same time. She looked so serious that it was as if no one could disturb this tranquility.
Xia An 'an's only thought now was to pass the postgraduate exam in three months. She had to work hard. There were so many books to read and so many questions to do. She wished that she could use one minute as ten. She was completely immersed in her study.
Suddenly, she felt someone touch her cheek.
She turned around and saw that Si Lijue was standing in front of her. Xia An 'an was shocked. "When did you come over?"
Si Lijue sighed. "I've been standing beside you for at least five minutes. Didn't you notice?"
Xia An 'an was shocked. "That long? I didn't even notice … "
Si Lijue was helpless when he heard this. He sat beside Xia An 'an and glanced at Xia An' an's information book. It was full of notes. He flipped through it and realized that Xia An 'an had already read quite a few pages.
"You're quite fast."
Si Lijue said.
Xia An 'an was not satisfied at all. "It's already very slow. I have to at least read the book once and memorize all the required knowledge. After that, I have to do questions."
"Can you understand it?"
This was what Si Lijue was more concerned about.
Xia An 'an said, "It's alright. I watched a video and the teacher explained it."
She flipped through the book and said, "But it's not enough. I plan to finish all the books in 20 days and start doing questions."
"Haste makes waste. Don't give yourself too much pressure."
Si Lijue had never planned to pressure Xia An 'an. He let her work at the company because he thought that it would be better for her to interact with more people. Who knew that she would set so many goals for herself.
Xia An 'an smiled and said, "I want to become someone who can help you."
The corners of Si Lijue's lips lifted. He rubbed Xia An 'an's head and said, "You're already very good."
In fact, Si Lijue realized that Xia An 'an was the type who was good at studying. She was what people called a top student. If she had grown up in a normal family, or if she didn't have that scar on her face, her life would have been completely different.
However, being a cook or a servant had stifled her talent.
Xia An 'an hugged the book and said, "Don't flatter me. I know the gap between me and others. Right now, I'm just trying to force myself to learn. I can only stuff everything into my head and then slowly digest it. I'll read another chapter. Go to sleep first."
Si Lijue frowned. "Aren't you going to sleep now?"
Xia An 'an's mind was filled with reading and doing practice questions. Where would he find the time to sleep? "No! It's still early, why don't we look at a few more key points? "
"Do you know what time it is?"
There was a trace of dissatisfaction in Si Lijue's voice.
Xia An 'an looked at the time. It was already 12 o' clock.
Si Lijue had asked her to look at the time because he wanted her to know that it was late and that she should go to bed. However, Xia An 'an said in surprise, "I've actually chatted with you for so long! Hurry and go to sleep. I'll do another set of practice questions. "
Si Lijue was speechless.
On the first day, Si Lijue tolerated it. After all, it was just the beginning and it was normal to be enthusiastic. However, one day passed, two days passed, three days passed. Not only did Xia An 'an's enthusiasm not decrease, it actually increased. There were several times when Si Lijue woke up at two or three o' clock in the morning and found that there was no one by the bed.
He went to the study room and found that she was still reading!
"Don't you think you're working too hard?"
During breakfast in the morning, Si Lijue suddenly said. At this moment, Xia An 'an was still watching the advanced mathematics teaching video. The exam was divided into three sections: Country A's Language, Professional Studies, Politics, and Advanced Mathematics. However, Country A was Xia An' an's forte, so she could skip it. The other sections were important and the most important ones were the Professional Studies.
An 'an had to be very important.
"Uh … Sorry, I shouldn't be watching it during breakfast …"
Xia An 'an covered her phone.
Seeing this, Si Lijue couldn't help but hold his forehead and say, "An 'an, you don't have to work so hard."
"But if I don't work hard now, what if I don't pass the exam?"
"Generally speaking, you do need to pass the exam to be admitted as a postgraduate student. However, if a tutor likes you, you can directly submit your application and skip the exam. I can help you contact a professor at Fu Hua University and ask him to accept you directly."
"There's such a thing?"
Xia An 'an was surprised.
"It's very common."
As he spoke, Si Lijue took out his phone and said, "I'll get someone to contact you now. You don't have to keep staring at the book."
Xia An 'an was too hardworking and he was worried that her body wouldn't be able to take it.
"But …" Xia Anan voiced out his worries, "Aren't those who can get a guaranteed spot all people with excellent grades? If I get recommended directly, many people will think that it's unfair, right? "
Si Lijue stared at her and asked, "There's no such thing as complete fairness in this world. You have more resources, so why don't you use them wisely?"
Xia An 'an wanted to refute, but Si Lijue said, "I'm choosing a tutor for you now, but it doesn't mean that it'll be easy for you once you get in. It's precisely because you're using resources that you have to be more outstanding than others so that people won't gossip. Don't you think that this is more challenging?"
Xia An 'an: "…"
Si Lijue saw that she lowered her head and didn't speak. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Or are you saying that you're afraid that you can't compare to others?"
"No!"
Xia An 'an suddenly spoke up. Her gaze was resolute as she said, "I agree!"
"That's the woman I like."
Si Lijue smiled. This way, she wouldn't have to study day and night anymore.
It wasn't easy for him to get a human heater, but in the end, she spent every day with boring books. Si Lijue wouldn't allow that to happen. Now that Xia An 'an agreed to his suggestion and everything was going according to his plan, Si Lijue was in a good mood.
He smiled and said, "Then you can put these books away first. It won't be too late to continue reading them when you get to school."
However, Xia An 'an refused.
Her expression was serious and full of fighting spirit as she said, "It's because of the recommendation that I can't fall behind others. I have to memorize this knowledge as soon as possible and work harder in the future!"
Si Lijue: "…"
Xia An 'an looked at Si Lijue seriously and asked sincerely, "Ah Jue, can you help me order another set of exam papers?"
