Han Xiang sincerely apologized on behalf of the original protagonist, “I’m sorry, it was my fault in the past. I always made you worry, mom; it won’t be like this in the future. Mom, don’t cry, I will treat you very, very well in the future.”

Time flew by and it was Friday. With Han Xiang’s efforts, everyone around believed in Han Xiang’s determination to “change from being evil and return to the good side”, but they were still full of doubts as to whether this was all a temporary façade and Han Xiang would go back to being a brat after a little while.

Han Xiang said, “This monthly exam will show the results of my hard work.”.

The Han Xiang from the real world was quite smart and had studied her way up to receive a Master’s degree. Doing well in a junior high school exam was no problem for her.

However, the problem lay with bringing Lu Huai’s grades up. In order to support him, she sacrificed her free time during the weekend to tutor him.

Yang Su was very happy when she heard that Han Xiang had friends coming over to study together. After all, this was the first time that Han Xiang had brought her friends home. She had prepared many snacks and games that the children would like. She was also a little afraid that Han Xiang would not be satisfied if she didn’t go to these lengths.

When a pink sports car stopped in front of the Han residence, Lu Huai, jumped out of the car and quickly approached Han Xiang. He lowered his voice and said, “My mom heard that I was coming over to your house and insisted on coming over to take a look.”

Then, Han Xiang saw a woman wearing sunglasses and a long dress get out of the car. She quickly greeted her, “Hello aunty!”

The woman smiled and rubbed Han Xiang’s face. “Xiang Xiang has become prettier.”

Yang Su also saw Lu Huai and was surprised. “Ah, Lu Huai!”

Then, Yang Su walked up and grabbed the woman’s wrist. “Why? Are you worried about Lu Huai coming over to my house?”

“No, I heard that this kid is going to study. I used to always wonder what I could do to get him to study but, in the end, all we had to do was get Xiang Xiang to tutor him.”

Han Xiang was a little confused. She only knew that the little fatty’s family was very rich, but she did not expect the two families’ parents to know each other and have a pretty good relationship with each other.

The little fatty felt a little wronged. He complained in a low voice, “I wanted to tell you before, but you told me to shut up.”

“This…” Han Xiang finally understood. The original protagonist, Han Xiang’s loyal “sidekick,” Lu Huai, actually became her friend because her adoptive mother, Yang Su, knew his mother.

She tried her best to let Han Xiang live happily and freely. She even got her friends to get their children to befriend Han Xiang. This deep maternal love was something that Han Xiang, who had once been separated from her parents, had never experienced before.

Sigh, if the original protagonist wasn’t so self-destructive, she would be able to see what a lovely life she had right in front of her.

After a morning of studying, the little fatty, Lu Huai already felt that he had already gotten his hands on the global limited-edition Ultraman figurine. After eating lunch, he reluctantly waved goodbye to Han Xiang. Lu Huai’s mother also took Yang Su away, saying that they were going to get their hair done together.

Han Xiang stretched and wanted to stretch. Then, she saw Han Qi playing basketball in the yard.

Playing basketball together could also promote their relationship, right? Han Xiang combed her hair into a ponytail, took a ball, and walked toward Han Qi.

Han Qi saw Han Xiang walking over from afar, and he had a bad feeling. Sure enough, he heard Han Xiang call out to him, “Hey, let’s play together.”

Han Qi still couldn’t forget the time he had quarreled with Han Xiang. The little girl had pressed him to the ground and hammered him. He was the older brother, and therefore, he couldn’t fight back, so he could only be forced to take a beating. After that, he was scolded by Yang Su. He was afraid of this demonic child now.

“No, you’re too short. Don’t say that I’m bullying you.”

Seeing that Han Xiang had been performing well during this period of time, Han Qi was rather amiable.

Han Xiang did not say anything. She walked to the side and began to warm up.

She was going to play anyway. The Han Xiang from the real world used to be on the university basketball team. So, she was used to playing basketball.

After a short while, Han Qi threw the ball. The ball hit the backboard and slanted. It spun around the basket and fell to the ground with a bang.

However, he heard the girl behind him chuckle. Then, a ball drew a perfect curve and smashed into the basket. It was a beautiful three-pointer.

“How about it? Do you want to compete?”

Han Qi looked back. The girl’s forehead was wet with sweat, but she looked at him with a smile. She was a little provocative. It was a look that he had never seen before.

This look was quite likable. She used to look very arrogant, as if she had a grudge against everyone.

“Sure, one minute. Let’s see who can shoot the most,” Han Qi agreed readily.

Han Xiang walked to the side and signaled for Han Qi to start.

Han Qi shot 20 shots in one minute. He thought that he could not embarrass Han Xiang too much, so he deliberately let a few shots go.

When it was Han Xiang’s turn, she moved a little, then gave Han Qi a sly look and started shooting.

Although Han Xiang was short, she was agile and light. The original protagonist probably also exercised a lot. Han Xiang was quite satisfied. The point shooting mainly depended on skill. Therefore, in one minute, she made 21 shots, narrowly beating Han Qi by one point.

When Han Xiang started shooting, Han Qi was so shocked that his mouth hung open so wide that an entire egg could be stuffed in. Han Xiang’s movements were standard and smooth. She actually shot faster and faster towards the end. It was obvious that she had practiced basketball a lot.

After receiving the ball that Han Xiang threw, Han Qi’s expression changed.. He asked, “How did you learn these skills?”
