Chapter 103: Target Locked

At the critical moment, a flash of inspiration struck Qin Tian.

"How could that be? How could I not believe you!"

He said with a solemn expression and a low, magnetic voice: "Have you forgotten? I once said that even if the whole world doesn't believe in you, I will believe in you."

Xia Nuannuan paused upon hearing this, and then two alluring blushes climbed onto her pretty face.

Of course, she hadn't forgotten, and it was impossible for her to forget.

Since that time, whenever she felt tired of the dull studying, exhausted from exercise, or hungry and wanting all kinds of desserts, this sentence Qin Tian had said that night would always ring in her ears.

With this, she would have the courage and faith to keep going.

"Hmph, then why did you ask me that just now?"

Xia Nuannuan turned her head away and huffed in a spoiled manner.

Her small face, which was already much more exquisite and beautiful than before, puffed up slightly, feigning a cute "I'm very angry" expression.

"My mistake, my mistake. It's just that I was chatting with the class monitor about which school to go to after the college entrance exam, and I suddenly wondered if your parents would want you to study abroad."

Qin Tian explained with a chuckle.

"So that's it. Don't worry, Dad only mentioned it twice before, but he and Mom actually don't want me to go abroad. Now that my grades have improved a lot, and with your help tutoring me, I can work hard to get into a good university."

Xia Nuannuan said with a firm tone.

Qin Tian nodded with a smile, thinking that the reason Xia Nuannuan had gone abroad to study in his past life was probably mostly due to her own wishes.

This time, because of him, the "butterfly of rebirth," this point should have already been changed.

"By the way, Qin Tian, which university do you want to go to? Although we agreed to go to the same university, I didn't know your grades were so good back then. I'm afraid I won't be able to get into the university you're planning to go to!"

Xia Nuannuan's expression became a bit nervous, and she added: "Of course, I will definitely work very, very hard, but..."

For a moment, she didn't know how to continue.

Ever since Qin Tian stunned everyone in the second mock exam, she had been worrying about this.

Qin Tian's grades were too good, so good that he could confidently go to the best university in the country.

She had the faith to keep studying hard until the college entrance exam, and she was confident that she could improve a little every day under Qin Tian's tutoring.

But for her to get the same score as Qin Tian in the college entrance exam was an almost impossible task.

That was a height that couldn't be reached by effort alone.

"Don't worry, you're not planning to go abroad, and I'm not planning to go to the Imperial Capital. I'll stay in Jiangcheng and choose a university that we can both get into with our college entrance exam scores."

Qin Tian comforted her with a smile.

Anyway, the system's task was just for him to take the top spot in the college entrance exam; it didn't specify which school to go to.

As long as it was in Jiangcheng, it didn't make much difference to him which university he went to.

Of course, he would definitely pick the best university within the range allowed by Xia Nuannuan's scores.

Xia Nuannuan paused, feeling both moved and guilty.

At this moment, she regretted why she hadn't started studying hard earlier, so she wouldn't be holding Qin Tian back.

"Qin Tian, actually... I think you could go to Tsinghua or Peking University. I'll just choose a school near you. As long as we're in the same city, that's good enough."

Xia Nuannuan suppressed the regret and unwillingness in her heart and suggested, looking directly into Qin Tian's eyes.

Qin Tian raised his right hand with a smile and flicked her forehead.

"What are you saying? An agreement is an agreement, and I must keep it."

"But this isn't good. You could clearly go to the best university."

Xia Nuannuan covered her forehead and said with a serious expression.

"There's nothing not good about it. What I like is the best. Anyway, I definitely have to go to the same school as you, unless you don't want to?"

Qin Tian feigned sadness and asked a question he already knew the answer to.

"No, no, how could I not want to."

Xia Nuannuan shook her head vigorously.

"Then there's no problem."

Qin Tian's face bloomed with a bright, sunny smile.

Xia Nuannuan stared blankly at his brilliant smile, her clear, black-and-white eyes inexplicably turning red, and her nose feeling a bit sore.

Over this period, all the beautiful memories of being with Qin Tian flashed through her mind like a slideshow.

It had been less than a month, but she felt as if it had been a very, very long time.

She wanted this happy and sweet campus time to last forever.

No matter how much effort it took.

Xia Nuannuan took a few deep breaths, calmed her agitated emotions, and light appeared in her eyes.

The expression on her beautiful face became incomparably firm, and she said word by word: "Okay, then our goal is decided: the best university in Jiangcheng."

Qin Tian paused, then nodded with a warm smile.

"Good, then you work hard. Jiangcheng University is waiting for us."

"Mm!"

Xia Nuannuan replied heavily, raised both hands, and patted her face vigorously.

"Pa pa!!"

The crisp, loud sound made Qin Tian stare in shock.

"What are you doing?"

"Refreshing my mind!"

"Uh... don't do that, it hurts me just watching."

Qin Tian advised with a smile.

Xia Nuannuan blushed and glanced at him sideways, saying seriously: "Stop saying things like that, it's affecting my review."

"Alright!"

Qin Tian gave a helpless, bitter smile.

Their chat ended there.

Xia Nuannuan picked up her pen and began to recite and write, reviewing English vocabulary.

Qin Tian continued to read his own book, occasionally stealing a glance at the girl beside him, finding that she seemed even more focused than ever before.

A warm current seemed to be flowing in his heart.

While moved, he suddenly felt a bit inexplicably guilty.

Given Xia Nuannuan's family background, if it weren't for him, who had been reborn, and that agreement, would she have been able to have an easier time?

Fortunately, after this thought occurred, it was quickly dismissed by him.

When he saw Xia Nuannuan again in his past life, she had already successfully counterattacked and undoubtedly stunned everyone.

But for a girl to study abroad alone, in an unfamiliar place, while having to work hard to improve and change herself, the various difficulties and hardships she encountered could be imagined.

It couldn't have been much easier than it was now.

At least he could be with her now and help her.

And it would always be like this in the future.

The bell for the end of morning self-study rang.

The sound of reading aloud in the classroom quickly subsided, and the students began to relax, either slumped over their desks or standing up to stretch and move their bodies.

Xia Nuannuan covered her mouth and let out a big yawn, and two tears of fatigue were squeezed out of her bright, watery eyes.

"Tired?"

Qin Tian asked with a smile.

"Mm, a little bit."

Xia Nuannuan nodded her little head.

"Then you should take a nap. Zhang Peng and I are going to the supermarket to buy some water and snacks. Do you want anything?"

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"No need."

Xia Nuannuan shook her head and declined with a sweet smile.

In the past, she liked snacks very much, but she had gotten used to being restrained during this period.

"Then I'll just buy a little bit. You've already lost weight, and you exercise every day, so you don't need to be too restrained."

"Hee hee... alright!" ===== CHAPTER 104 =====
