"I never knew you were such a heroine."
Zhou Chen gave a thumbs up. Actually, he usually doesn’t eat spicy food, but he knew Qiao Yingzi liked spicy food, so most of the dishes he ordered just now were spicy.
Qiao Yingzi laughed and said, "That's right."
"Zhou Chen, you said you just moved to Shuxiang Yayuan, what about your parents? Aren't they coming to live with you?"
Zhou Chen said: "My mother passed away a long time ago. As for my father, he was a bastard. It's better not to mention him."
After saying this, he quickly said to himself: Dad, Mom, I'm not talking about you, please don't misunderstand.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Zhou Chen, I'm sorry."
When Qiao Yingzi heard this, she quickly put down her cup and apologized repeatedly. Although she and Zhou Chen were classmates, she really didn't know anything about Zhou Chen's situation.
"It's okay, no need to apologize. I've gotten used to it. Although I moved to Shuxiang Yayuan, I live alone now, so I usually either cook for myself or eat out. If you want to eat out next time, you can just call me and I'll take you."
"You live alone?"
"Well, what happened?"
Qiao Yingzi: "I'm jealous and envious. Actually, I also want to live alone. Living alone is free and no one is controlling me. It's so comfortable."
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "That's just your feeling. Living alone means you have to do everything by yourself. It's not as comfortable as you think. It's better to live with your parents."
He disagreed with what Qiao Yingzi said.
At their age, it is of course best for them to live with their parents. Otherwise, with the abilities of this generation of children, taking care of themselves will become a problem, and it would be a good thing if they don't starve to death.
However, he also knew why Qiao Yingzi had such thoughts. It was entirely because her mother was different from other mothers. She was a mother with a strong desire for control.
Even someone as cheerful as Qiao Yingzi was eventually forced to suffer from depression. If it were a child with a worse mentality, he would have collapsed long ago.
"What's so good about living with your parents? I still envy you, Zhou Chen."
Qiao Yingzi's words came from the bottom of her heart. She had been strictly controlled by her mother for many years, and she longed for freedom in her heart.
"There's no need to envy me. Once you get into college, you can do whatever you want." Zhou Chen said.
Qiao Yingzi nodded vigorously: "You are right. When I take the college entrance examination, I will definitely leave Yanjing and pursue my freedom."
Seeing that Qiao Yingzi spoke so seriously, Zhou Chen did not refute, but he was extremely sure that when Qiao Yingzi really gained complete freedom, she would definitely miss her parents and the days with her parents.
There were only two tables of customers in the restaurant, so the dishes for Zhou Chen and his table arrived very quickly.
"It's so hot, would you like some cold beer to cool down?"
"Ah? Drink beer?"
Qiao Yingzi opened her eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Just kidding. Forget about the beer. How about an iced Coke?"
"You can have this."
Qiao Yingzi nodded quickly. In her family, ice cola was also a controlled substance, and her mother Song Qian would not let her drink it at all.
After the ice cola came, Zhou Chen poured two full cups and then raised the cup.
"Qiao Yingzi, this is our first time having dinner together. Come, let's have a toast to celebrate."
"Okay, done."
Qiao Yingzi clinked glasses with Zhou Chen generously, then took a big gulp.
"Drink less and eat the food first, otherwise you won't be able to eat the food later."
After chatting with Zhou Chen for such a long time, Qiao Yingzi gradually let down her guard and revealed her generous personality, talking to Zhou Chen while eating.
Soon, the spicy crayfish with thirteen spices came up. Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi put on disposable gloves and started to work.
"Mm, not bad. Hiss, spicy enough. Crayfish tastes better when it's spicy."
Qiao Yingzi peeled the crayfish and ate it with relish, while giving a thumbs-up in praise, her nose and cheeks covered with chili oil.
Zhou Chen's appetite was also aroused by Qiao Yingzi's eating habits, so he joined the battle.
The two of them quickly finished three pounds of crayfish. After eating, both of them were panting heavily, which was due to the spiciness.
After taking a big gulp of ice cola, Qiao Yingzi exclaimed in comfort: "It feels so good. I haven't eaten so comfortably in a long time."
She could only eat so happily when she went to see her father every month. At other times, she was under the control of her mother and could not eat and drink so comfortably.
Zhou Chen also put down his chopsticks. The three pounds of crayfish had been finished by the two of them, and they had also eaten most of the six dishes, so there was not much left.
"Zhou Chen, you're really good. Your appetite is better than both of us."
Zhou Chen leaned back in his chair and said, "I'm already full. I need to rest for a while before I can leave."
Qiao Yingzi smiled and said, "Me too. I haven't eaten so much in a long time. After today, I'm afraid I'll gain weight again."
Zhou Chen looked at her: "You are so thin, you can't even tell if you have gained weight."
Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes and said, "I don't want to gain weight. I'm not as tall as Taozi, but I'm several pounds heavier than her, so I can't gain any more weight."
"Women should have some flesh to look good. Otherwise, if they are too skinny, they will fly away in the wind and look scary."
Zhou Chen said casually that he did not quite agree with those women who excessively pursued a tall and thin figure. They were so thin that they were just skin and bones, which looked creepy. What was good about them?
Qiao Yingzi had no exposure to matters between men and women, so she didn't understand what Zhou Chen meant at all and just laughed.
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. What kind of wind can blow people away? A tornado?"

Chapter 194 Class Beauty Huang Zhitao
Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi rested in the restaurant for more than ten minutes before leaving, and Zhou Chen did not pack up the remaining food.
The two of them walked leisurely into the community, Qiao Yingzi and Zhou Chen walked side by side.
"You spent 300 yuan on a meal, Zhou Chen, you really are a rich man."
Qiao Yingzi's family is well-off. Even without her father, her mother is a gold medal teacher in a large educational institution. She also teaches privately and pays the rent, so she earns tens of thousands of yuan every month.
So their family was not short of money, but even so, Qiao Yingzi didn't have much pocket money because her mother was really strict with her.
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Of course. If you follow me in the future, I promise you will have delicious food and spicy drinks."
"roll."
Qiao Yingzi pushed Zhou Chen away.
After a meal, the relationship between the two classmates, who originally had a very ordinary relationship, suddenly became better. Of course, this was also because of Qiao Yingzi's generous personality.
"We're going back to school the day after tomorrow. I heard that the third year of high school is completely different from the first and second years. How are you preparing?"
Zhou Chen looked puzzled: "What should I prepare for returning to school? Tuition?"
Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes and said, "Senior year, brother, we're going to be senior year soon, don't you need to prepare for anything?"
Zhou Chen said indifferently: "Whatever I need to prepare for the third year of high school, it's all the same to me."
"Brother, you have a really big heart."
Qiao Yingzi sincerely admired Zhou Chen's indifferent look. She hadn't even officially entered the third year of high school yet, but she already felt tremendous pressure, especially from her mother, which made her not have a relaxing summer vacation.
This is not because he is careless, but Zhou Chen has experienced the college entrance examination once. Compared with their province and city, the high school students in Yanjing are really very comfortable.
He remembered that when he was in his third year of high school, there was no such thing as summer vacation.
In the two-month summer vacation, there is only one week off, and the rest of the time we have to go to school day and night for classes. What's even more disgusting is that the school also counts this compulsory course as remedial classes, and every student has to pay a large amount of remedial fee.
As for Saturdays and Sundays, they have disappeared since I entered high school, and reached their peak in my senior year.
Except for Sunday afternoons when you have time to take a shower and shave your head, you are in school all the rest of the time, from 6:30 in the morning to 10:30 in the evening. You can only leave school for an hour or so at noon and for lunch.
Zhou Chen endured such days for a whole year, so, compared to them at that time, Chunfeng Middle School must have been a paradise. They could even have two days off a week, which was something they could never have imagined before.
"By the way, Qiao Yingzi, I didn't study very hard before, and I don't understand a lot of science knowledge points. Can I borrow your notes?"
Although Zhou Chen doesn't care much about the college entrance examination, since he is currently a student and is prepared to stay in this world to experience life, he naturally has to live as a student.
Furthermore, he is only eighteen years old and is already worth hundreds of millions. He has basically achieved financial freedom and is free from financial pressure. Even if he wants to make money, it will be many years later. For now, he should focus on enjoying life.
Although the saying “love what you do” is a lie, Zhou Chen still feels that he should focus on studying now.
It feels a bit strange to relearn with an adult's mindset, but if a senior high school student does not focus on studying, it seems even more difficult to understand.
"Notes? Sure, no problem."
Qiao Yingzi agreed straightforwardly, "You really need to review your grades."
The two of them quickly took the elevator back to the fourth floor, and Zhou Chen invited Qiao Yingzi, "Would you like to come over to my place?"
Qiao Yingzi immediately looked at Zhou Chen with a vigilant look: "What do you want to do?"
Zhou Chen said: "What else do you think I can do? Just invite classmates to visit my home. We will be neighbors for the next year anyway, so we should get to know each other in advance."
Qiao Yingzi: "No, Taozi asked me to come to my house today. I guess she will be here soon and won't have time to go to your place."
No matter how generous her personality was, she didn't dare to go to her male classmate's house easily, especially since there was no one else at her male classmate's house.
Zhou Chen said, "Then you can wait for Huang Zhitao to arrive, and you two can go to my place together. I really need you to help me organize my books and knowledge points. After the third year of high school, I plan to study hard and make progress every day, so I need to ask you academic masters for advice."
Qiao Yingzi stood at the door of her house, thought for a moment, and then said, "When Taozi comes, I'll ask her."
"Okay, it's settled then. I'll wait for you at home."
Zhou Chen looked happy, waved to Qiao Yingzi, and walked into Room 405.
After returning home, Zhou Chen started to clean up. There were a lot of toys piled in the living room, and it was a bit messy. Qiao Yingzi and the others were coming soon, so he naturally had to clean it up.
After cleaning up, Zhou Chen picked up the book and started reading again. High school math calculations and the like were not too difficult for Zhou Chen. He could get the answers to many questions quickly after reading them, but the problem was that he didn't know the process.
In high school exams, it is not enough to just have answers. The big questions at the end are scored based on the problem-solving process, so having answers alone is far from enough.
It was similar for physics, but chemistry and biology were a bit difficult for him because they were based on completely different teaching materials from what he had studied back then.
I can’t say that I don’t understand it at all, but I’m definitely confused and don’t quite understand it. If I use it to take an exam, I will definitely not get many points.
However, Zhou Chen was not in a hurry. At worst, he could just start learning the knowledge points from scratch. As long as he mastered the basic knowledge points, with his current memory and thinking ability, he could definitely master them quickly.
In fact, if Zhou Chen had studied liberal arts, it would have been much easier, because liberal arts mostly rely on memory and comprehension, which he was least lacking in.
Putting the math and other science books aside, Zhou Chen picked up the Chinese textbook and began to read it carefully.
When I was in school, I would instinctively get a headache when I saw books. But now I have changed my mindset. When I read Chinese books, I find them very interesting, just like reading a novel, turning the pages one by one.
"Boom, boom, boom."
After an unknown amount of time, a knock on the door woke Zhou Chen up from his sea of books. He immediately put down the book and walked to the door.
When the door opened, I saw two girls standing outside.
In addition to Qiao Yingzi, there is another girl who is slightly taller than Qiao Yingzi, with an oval face and a long ponytail. Her facial features do look more delicate than Qiao Yingzi's, so it's no problem to call her the class beauty.
This girl is Huang Zhitao, Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi’s classmate and also a top student. She is also Fang Yifan’s goddess and secret crush in the TV series.
"Zhou Chen, Tao Zi and I are here."
Qiao Yingzi greeted them openly, but Huang Zhitao said shyly, "Hello, classmate Zhou Chen."
"Qiao Yingzi, Huang Zhitao, welcome, come in." Zhou Chen stepped aside and invited them in.
Qiao Yingzi pulled Huang Zhitao in and said as they walked in, "Welcome, is this a hotel?"
After they went in, Zhou Chen closed the door and Qiao Yingzi took out a notebook in her hand.
"Zhou Chen, this is my physics notebook from my second year of high school. It contains some important knowledge points and exercises. It should be of some use to you."
Zhou Chen took it and looked at it. The cover was a notebook written by Mars. It was a thick book and it seemed that he had been writing for a long time.
"Thank you, Qiao Yingzi, Huang Zhitao, please take a seat first. I'll get you some drinks."
Qiao Yingzi didn't hesitate and pulled Huang Zhitao to sit on the sofa. Huang Zhitao whispered in Qiao Yingzi's ear.
"Yingzi, how come you are so familiar with this Zhou Chen?"
Just now when she came to visit Qiao Yingzi, Qiao Yingzi told her that her classmate Zhou Chen lived next door and wanted to bring her to visit.
She didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but now seeing the communication between Qiao Yingzi and Zhou Chen, this relationship seems a little unusual.
Qiao Yingzi chuckled and said, "No, I only found out about his move here at noon. He treated me to a meal at noon, so I returned the favor by lending him my notebook and came to get to know him. But luckily you came, otherwise, I would be embarrassed to come here alone. Let me tell you..."
"what!"
