Book 1: Chapter 27: The Culprit Finally Appears
That said, this fool only entered Jindu University after getting 24 bonus points?
Come to think of it, her registered residence is in Jindu City. Perhaps the required score is lower since it is considered a local school for her?
“Why are you looking at me like that? I’m just not very good at physics. No one is perfect!” Mo Qingtong thought that Chen Heng was feeling a headache over her abysmal talent in physics when she saw Chen Heng’s strange gaze on her.
“Nothing. Just remember the solving method for the questions that I explained to you. Note it down in your notebook. These are the questions that I think might come out. Who knows, you might get similar questions in the college entrance exams.”
“Uh-huh! Got it!”
“Don’t just say that. Quickly write it down. A good memory is not better than writing it down. Let me see you write it now, before you misremember it.” Chen Heng did his best to ensure this fool could enter Jindu University.
“Alright. I’ve written it down.” Mo Qingtong reluctantly finished her notes.
Smack!
“Ow!”
Chen Heng pulled back the finger he flicked out. Then, he looked calmly at Mo Qingtong, who had yelled.
“I’m explaining the questions to you; these might be tested. Be more serious.”
“Who would believe you? How could you possibly predict the exam questions?” Mo Qingtong complained softly.
“You don’t believe me, right? Let’s bet on this, then.”
“What’s the bet?” The moment the word “bet” was mentioned, Mo Qingtong perked up. After all, a bet came with a prize.
“It looks like you agree. I’m going to explain five questions with different solving methods to you. You must agree to one of my requests for each problem-solving method that appears. I will agree to one of your requests for those who do not. The two can negate each other. How about it? Are you game?” Chen Heng glanced at Mo Qingtong tauntingly.
“Bring it on! Do you think you are the person setting the questions or can see the future? If you can predict the questions, you would be a god!” You can only predict one solving method at best. Even if the requests can be negated, it’s over for you, Chen Heng, Mo Qingtong thought.
“Good. Remember to read your notes in case they really come out and you do them wrong.” Chen Heng felt sorrowful as he looked at the gleeful Mo Qingtong. Might foolhardiness be contagious?
In reality, four of the questions were very similar to the actual exam questions. One was used to pull the wool over Mo Qingtong’s eyes. After all, guessing all five questions would be too ridiculous.
Although predicting four questions was already quite ridiculous, there was at least one question that would not appear.
“I’m going home to cook for Sirin. Bye!”
“Remember to come over tonight and cook. Be sure to remember!” Mo Qingtong remembered this matter very clearly.
“Alright, alright.”
After Chen Heng returned home, he saw Sirin sitting on the sofa.
“Sirin, why aren’t you playing in your room?”
“I wanted to see Elder Brother as soon as possible.” These words truly struck the heart. The chances of Chen Heng falling into the trap increased.
When Sirin saw Chen Heng return, her mood improved by 30.
“I see. Elder Brother is happy. I’ll go cook, then.”
“Ok!” When Chen Heng mentioned cooking, Sirin’s mood clearly improved by 50.
It was obvious that Sirin felt happier upon hearing that Chen Heng would cook than seeing him, although he did not think that was the case.

“It’s ready! Braised meat, spicy chicken, and sliced steamed chicken.” Chen Heng used his attraction ability to bring the three dishes and rice to the dining table. Was this how attraction was used? Well, it depended on experience.
[TL Note: Spicy chicken: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laziji. Sliced steamed chicken: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_cut_chicken.]
“Elder Brother is incredible! You can make the dishes float!”
“This is Elder Brother’s ability; I can control attraction. Remember not to tell others. Otherwise, Elder Brother will be in danger. Sirin is the first person to know.” To think that Chen Heng exposed his ability to Sirin for the first time because he wanted to serve the dishes!
“Alright. I absolutely will not tell others.”
“Come on and eat.”
“This is delicious! Elder Brother, is Aunty Liu’s cooking better than yours?”
“…”
“Elder Brother, what’s wrong?”
“Sirin, it would be best if you can avoid eating Aunty Liu’s cooking.”
“Why? Elder Brother, didn’t you say that you wanted Aunty Liu to give you some pointers?”
“This…” Chen Heng hesitated over whether to tell the truth.
“Aunty Liu’s sense of taste is slightly different from ours. The food she considers delicious might not be delicious to us.” In the end, Chen Heng decided to tell her. He could not let a child come to harm.
“That is to say, Aunty Liu is the culinary equivalent of tone deaf?” Sirin’s comment struck the core of the problem.
“You can never say this in front of Aunty Liu, got it?” Chen Heng felt that he had better remind Sirin.
“Got it. This is so that we don’t embarrass Aunty Liu, right?”
“Very clever. Eat quickly. It’ll go cold.”
After Chen Heng finished eating and doing the dishes, Raven called.
“What’s up, Elder Sister Raven?”
“Oh, it’s like this. A good friend of the young miss’s grandfather is returning from an overseas business trip and will be holding a gathering at Vast Sea Hotel, so there’s no need for Young Master Heng to come tonight.” free webnov el.com
“Who’s that person?”
“Situ Yu.”
Crack! Chen Heng unconsciously used too much strength, breaking the bowl he had just washed.
“What’s wrong, Little Heng?”
“Nothing. I was doing the dishes. I was too focused on listening to you that I dropped a bowl. I’m hanging up first. I have to clean up.”
“Ok. I’m hanging up, then. Do be careful when cleaning.”
“Alright.”
“Situ Yu.” Chen Heng initially thought he could stay calm when he heard this name. Unexpectedly, he still lost control.
“Calm down! Calm down!” Chen Heng kept telling himself to keep his cool.
“Elder Brother, what’s wrong? What happened?” Sirin came running when she heard the sound in the kitchen.
“Nothing. My hand slipped when I was on the phone earlier, and the bowl slipped.”
Chen Heng could no longer be bothered to clean manually. He used his attraction ability to float the bowl shards and fly them to the trash.
“This ability is very convenient.”
It is convenient. I can even use it to drop meteors on people. It is very convenient.
“I have something to do, so I’ll go back to my room first.”
Does Elder Brother have something on his mind? As Sirin watched Chen Heng rush up the stairs, she thought, I have never seen Elder Brother with such a cold expression before.
Chen Heng did not know what Sirin was thinking. When he got to his room, he flung himself down on his bed.
“I have Sirin and Ryougi Shiki now. This is not a good time for revenge. Wait first until I send off Sirin and send Ryougi Shiki to another world. Wait first. Wait.
“Just think about Sirin, that little angel. I cannot let harm come to her because of me. Just think about Ryougi Shiki. Think about how handsome… Alright, I don’t really know her well yet. However, I gained my Precognition because of her, and she is still in the hospital.”
