FMLRWS Chapter 648

Leng Me’er jumped up excitedly. “Of course! Big Cousin came to pick us up personally!”

Leng Muyu rolled his eyes. “What do you mean by us? You just happened to be there, okay?”

Leng Me’er huffed. “Anyway, don’t be jealous of me later.”

“Jealous of you? What a joke. What could I possibly be jealous of you?”

“Hmph! Ta-da, look what I have!” Leng Me’er pulled out the black card and waved it in front of him.

“Holy crap! Where did you get that?” Leng Muyu’s previously indifferent expression turned into shock as he stared at her with wide eyes.

“Of course, Big Cousin gave it to me!” Leng Me’er immediately became smug after seeing his reaction.

Leng Muyu was incredulous. “Big Cousin wouldn’t just give you a black card. You must have begged him for it, right? No way, Big Cousin wouldn’t stoop to that.”

Leng Me’er was annoyed and replied, “I didn’t beg him. He gave it to me, and he gave one to sister-in-law too.”

Leng Muyu’s expression suddenly turned strange. “Sister-in-law?”

He chuckled. “Weren’t you all about calling her Luo Xi? Now suddenly it’s sister-in-law? Has Big Brother bought you off with a black card?”

“Pah, am I that shallow? You wouldn’t understand. Forget it, I’m not talking to you anymore.” Leng Me’er happily clutched her black card and left Leng Muyu’s room.

She then rushed to tell her mother. Although the second madam was surprised, she didn’t react as dramatically as Leng Muyu. Instead, she reminded Leng Me’er to maintain a good relationship with Luo Xi and not to cause trouble for Leng Minxing, among other things.

This time, Leng Me’er listened.

Before they knew it, it was time for the midterm exams.

This was Luo Xi’s first midterm since her rebirth, and she was more nervous than anyone.

Although her previous scores had been good, she couldn’t shake her worries.

Not only was she anxious, but many others were watching her scores. Some were waiting to mock her, while others were really concerned.

The night before the exam, Luo Xi studied for a long time.

It was then that Leng Minxing noticed her unusual behavior. He called her several times to go to bed, but she refused. Finally, he had to forcibly take the books from her hands before she reluctantly returned to sleep.

Leng Minxing felt a mixture of worry and self-reproach. After all, the pressure she felt was largely due to him.

He held her close and coaxed her until she finally drifted off to sleep in the middle of the night.

Because she couldn’t sleep the last night, Luo Xi felt worse the next day. She was awakened early by cramps because her period had started.

Compared to her, Leng Me’er and Leng Muyu seemed much more relaxed, as if they hadn’t given it much thought. Luo Xi’s intense anxiety resembled that of preparing for college entrance exams, even though this was just a midterm. It shouldn’t have affected them too much. Even if she didn’t do well, it wouldn’t be the end of the world.

The three of them got into the car and headed to school.

During the exam, everything had to be scanned. Nothing could be brought inside the exam hall. The school even provided the pens to prevent cheating.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Xi walked into the exam room.

When she came out, her expression wasn’t good.

Perhaps because of her anxiety and lack of sleep the night before, she hadn’t performed well.

As she walked past people who were grumbling about how difficult the questions had been this year, she noticed everyone else also looked grim.

Although she had managed to finish the exam, her heart was still heavy with uncertainty.
