Chapter 176 Ye Fan's Prediction

As Ye Fan's astonishing words echoed, the living room fell into silence.

Ning Xiangtian's eyelids twitched uncontrollably, his gaze fixated on Ye Fan's face, as if trying to see through him completely.

But unfortunately…

Ye Fan's expression showed no fluctuations, as though he was merely stating an insignificant matter.

And, in fact, it was just that.

A probability of one in a hundred thousand is indeed daunting, daunting enough to make one feel hopeless.

However, that only applies to ordinary people.

Ning Xi's academic performance was already among the top tier, and with the recent tutoring, she had made a qualitative leap.

Getting into the Genius List wasn't hard for her at all.

As for himself, it was even less of a concern. With a cheat system at his side, if he couldn't even make it onto the Genius List, he might as well buy a block of tofu and end himself.

Being modest is a good trait, but excessive modesty would only make others look down on you.

Human nature is just like that.

There are times to be humble, but also times when you need to show off a bit.

Especially when his future father-in-law doubted his capabilities, he had to put on a high-profile act.

A sharp light flashed in Ning Xiangtian's eyes. He clasped his hands together, his fingertips tapping slightly on his palm. "Do you know what you're saying?"

"I do."

Faced with this questioning tone—especially from the wealthiest man in the country—Ye Fan's face showed not a trace of panic. All that could be seen was calmness, composure, and a faint confidence. This added even more charm to his already handsome and refined appearance.

Ning Xi tilted her head slightly, her eyes sparkling like a starry night.

She didn't know what came to mind, but her cheeks flushed into a captivating red, resembling ripe cherries.

Her demeanor made one feel an overwhelming urge to devour her whole.

"I look forward to your performance."

Throwing out this one-liner, Ning Xiangtian got up and left the living room. He wasn't one for unnecessary chatter.

Whether it was confidence or arrogance; the results of the college entrance exam would reveal everything.

"Good luck!"

Lan Xi said with a smile in her eyes as she got up to follow her husband.

To be honest, she was very, very satisfied with Ye Fan's performance just now.

She knew her husband's personality all too well.

After watching the two leave, Ye Fan raised his left hand and waved it in front of Ning Xi's face, jokingly teasing, "Xiao Xi, while I know I'm quite good-looking, you don't have to stare at me like that, do you?"

"I… Ugh, narcissist!"

Ning Xi covered her face with her delicate hands, unable to stop her heart from racing. A faint blush also rose to her fair neck.

She felt like she was straying further and further down the road of infatuation...

So embarrassing!

Ye Fan smiled warmly, greedily inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from the girl, feeling an inner calm and peace.

Returning to the study.

Ye Fan continued explaining advanced math problems to Ning Xi. After ensuring she fully understood them, he wrote out several similar problems on scratch paper for her to practice.

He then used this time to begin picking out classics in various fields from the bookshelf. The books he chose would all be brought home.

After obtaining the Inspiration Fountain ability, Ye Fan had an even greater demand for books, but he didn't feel the slightest bit troubled.

The Inspiration Fountain effect could only last for one hour, so he would go to the bookstore every day after school to make full use of that hour.

As for normal times, he would just read books at a regular pace.

The time came to around 5 p.m.

At the villa's front gate.

Ye Fan looked at the beautiful girl standing before him and opened his arms. "Xiao Xi, want a hug?"

"…?"

Ning Xi gave him an annoyed look and stomped her foot. "Hug your big head! Be serious!"

As she spent more time with Ye Fan, her tolerance for his teasing remarks grew stronger. From being shy at first, she now appeared calm and composed, treating it as if it were normal.

"Alright then, I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

The summer evening breeze carried a slight chill, playfully lifting the girl's skirt and hair, showcasing the unique beauty of the season.

Under the setting sun, Ye Fan's figure gradually disappeared at the end of the street. Ning Xi stood at the doorway for a long time, her dimples blossoming with joy, as beautiful as a field of blooming flowers.

"Ding-ling—"

As the class bell rang, Lin Dejiang walked into the classroom.

The students, who had been whispering moments ago, instantly quieted down.

All eyes focused on the report card in Lin Dejiang's hand. While they were full of expectation, there was also a trace of nervousness.

At the back of the classroom.

Ye Fan quietly flipped through the book in his hands, completely unaffected by the atmosphere around him, displaying a remarkable calmness.

Ning Xi glanced at him, tapping her fingers lightly on the desk.

"Aren't you curious about your score?"

Ever since she met Ye Fan, she had never seen him anxious about anything. No matter the situation, he always appeared unhurried and composed. His maturity didn't match his age, as if he wasn't part of this generation at all.

"Why be curious about something I already know?"

"Pfft—"

Ning Xi pouted and muttered under her breath, "The scores haven't even been announced yet. How could you know? Such a braggart!"

Ye Fan paused his page-turning and glanced at the girl sitting beside him. His lips curled slightly as he spoke, "Xiao Xi, I really do know my scores. If you don't believe me, we can make a bet."

"A bet?"

Ning Xi was stunned for a moment.

Her intuition told her she should absolutely not bet with Ye Fan, but her curiosity got the better of her.

"What kind of bet?"

Ye Fan closed his book and put it aside, speaking softly, "Since Lin Laoshi hasn't announced the scores yet, I'll write down my predicted scores for each subject on a piece of paper. If I get them all correct, you have to agree to one condition of mine."

Ning Xi countered, "What if you're wrong?"

Ye Fan replied confidently, "If I'm wrong, I'll agree to three conditions of yours. Deal?"

Ning Xi was utterly shocked.

If he lost, it would be one condition; if he won, it would be three conditions?

Such confidence!

She just couldn't believe it!

"Fine, deal!"

After a brief hesitation, Ning Xi made her decision.

"But let's make this clear: if even one subject's score is wrong, you lose!"

"Of course."

Ye Fan smiled, a flicker of a scheming glint flashing in his eyes.

Ning Xi was feeling quite confident about this bet and let out a proud humph. "Hurry up and write. I'm definitely going to win!"

After speaking, she muttered softly, "I'd better start thinking about what I want you to do."

"Take your time. No rush."

Ye Fan picked up pen and paper, and with a few strokes, he had already written his predicted scores.

He folded the paper into a slip and placed it in front of Ning Xi. "You hold on to this. You can compare it after the scores are announced."

Ning Xi picked up the paper slip and asked hesitantly, "Can I open it now?"

"You can."

Ye Fan nodded, resuming his reading of the book he had just put down.

In truth, he wasn't concerned about the outcome of the bet.

Whether he won or lost, it would only give him more opportunities to interact with Ning Xi.

From the start, Ye Fan knew exactly what he wanted, which was why he remained so calm.

Ning Xi unfolded the paper slip. When she read the contents, her rosy lips parted slightly in surprise.

Chinese: 150, Math: 150, English: 150, Science: 300.

This prediction...

Was simply outrageous!!!

"Everyone, quiet down."

Lin Dejiang clapped his hands, his rich voice echoing through the room. "Now, I will announce the results of the second mock exam."
