Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 273 - 274: Falling off the horse! Gu Anxi, who is better me or Da Hui?
He lowered his head and murmured dangerously, "You only just arrived at Beicheng University and you’ve already attracted so much attention, huh?"
Gu Anxi felt somewhat confused. After thinking for a moment, she remembered Wang Qin had given them to her.
She took one and glanced at him. "What! Bo Xichen, aren’t you overthinking? This is obviously for you!"
Bo Xichen held a mug and sipped from it lightly.
Gu Anxi looked at him again, then lowered her head to open a letter.
She only took one look before closing it.
The letter began with—
HUSBAND!!!
What audacious words!
Bo Xichen leaned closer to her. "Gu Anxi, why did you stop reading?"
She covered the letter, stammering, "There’s nothing interesting to see. It’s just... an ordinary letter."
In one swift motion, she threw all the letters into the trash bin. There, discarded!
Bo Xichen put down his mug, bent over, and picked up a letter.
Gu Anxi lunged at him. "Don’t look, don’t look!"
Bo Xichen caught her in his embrace with one arm, preventing her from moving, while he opened the envelope with his free hand.
Again, audacious language filled with a young girl’s admiration and infatuation—
Bo Xichen feigned surprise as he read, then looked at Gu Anxi. "My little one got into a fight, and now she has so many... admirers?"
Gu Anxi tried to break free, but he wouldn’t let her. He leaned close to her ear and murmured, "You haven’t called me ’husband’ yet... Gu Anxi, want to practice beforehand?"
She bit her lip. "Bo Xichen, you promised to let me off tonight."
He seemed to consider it for a moment, then readily released her, casually adding, "Then let’s discuss this topic tomorrow."
When Gu Anxi returned to her paper, her face was slightly flushed. After a while, she finally managed to squeeze out, "Bo Xichen, you should exercise some self-control."
He sat back down at the desk, his long legs stretched out, looking very pleasing to the eye.
Hearing this, he smirked. "I seem to recall someone saying I wasn’t capable enough."
Gu Anxi’s fingers flew across the keyboard as she typed, then she replied in a very soft voice, "You’re capable enough, more than enough! You’re excellent!"
Bo Xichen abruptly leaned in towards her again. "Compared to Da Hui?"
Gu Anxi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him.
Bo Xichen chuckled lightly, picked up his cup, and walked away.
He wouldn’t tell her that it was yesterday’s discontinued update and this morning’s Weibo post that had revealed to him—that ’Rabbit Lady Without Long Johns’ was his little one. Oh, and she mentioned ’The Ice-Cold Hunk Scheme’ before! He remembered she seemed to have researched different types of fur...
Bo Xichen paused at the doorway of the study, leaning against the frame, and said leisurely, "Miss Rabbit, no matter how late, I will wait for you."
Gu Anxi’s mind reeled. That was the line Da Hui said to Miss Rabbit in this morning’s update!
She covered her face.
Bo Xichen remained perfectly calm. "Gu Anxi, you’re selling your experiences!"
Now, countless young girls, young women, and noblewomen in Beicheng were already fantasizing about calling him ’husband’...
Gu Anxi obediently closed her laptop and followed him back to the bedroom.
That evening, Bo Xichen spent the entire time establishing numerous house rules for his little one. Additionally, there was the matter of ’The 18 Ways the Big Bad Wolf Devours the Little Rabbit,’ at its most explicit!
Gu Anxi paid a hefty price for it all!
She chose to permanently erase the entire process from her memory.
The next morning, Gu Anxi woke up and checked the stats for her comic; they were consistently strong and popular. After checking, she put her phone away. She now had a new strategy: go home to sleep, and draw her comic during class.
The professors all shook their heads, muttering that a hopeless student from Beicheng University like her was beyond saving.
On the notice board of Beicheng University, the results of the recent monthly exams were posted—
First in Chinese Literature: Gu Mingzhu.
First in Computer Science: Fang Ming.
First in Chemistry: Lin Tao.
Fang Ming was also very strong; like Chu Yan, he was the type to consistently take first place. This time, Chu Yan wasn’t participating, so Fang Ming naturally came in first. However, an intercollegiate computer competition was coming up soon, and then it would be clear who was stronger. The students of Beicheng University eagerly awaited the return of their two top academic performers.
Gu Anxi drew her comic in the morning and worked on finishing her paper in the afternoon. She was just missing some data to complete it.
That evening, after returning home and finishing dinner, she went into her private lab. Father Bo had specially built it to support his "little girl," equipping it with advanced technology that cost over a hundred million.
Even Bo Xichen felt his parents were spoiling Gu Anxi rotten. It wasn’t like indulging a prospective daughter-in-law; it was more like whatever their child wanted—
Buy it!
Whatever she wants to do?
Go ahead! Provide the best conditions!
Bo Xichen also reflected deeply: what had he, their biological son, ever done wrong from childhood to now to not deserve such treatment? He had certainly never enjoyed such favoritism. However, he found such thoughts merely amusing and naturally didn’t dwell on them.
While Gu Anxi was conducting her experiment, Bo Xichen was talking with his father. Just then, Ms. Bo Jin arrived.
Bo Xichen stood up. "Aunt."
Bo Jin was very fond of this outstanding and extraordinary nephew. She nodded. After they both sat down, she got straight to business. "Xichen, I went to the warehouse to requisition some Jing today and heard you’ve allocated most of it to Yunxi Hospital. What about the company’s needs?"
Father Bo also looked at Bo Xichen.
Bo Xichen smiled faintly. "The hospital’s needs can’t be cut back." He then glanced at his father.
Father Bo understood then; that Jing had likely been diverted elsewhere. Jing wasn’t just a chemical raw material; if necessary, it could also be used to create certain special weapons urgently needed by the GF Department. But these were things Bo Jin couldn’t be told.
Bo Jin looked concerned. "Xichen, the Jing reserves in the warehouse are low. The international organizations selling it are demanding exorbitant prices, and it’s still hard to procure."
Bo Xichen smiled. "In that case, I’ll take a look around here. Perhaps there are some smaller quantities still available."
Bo Jin was dumbfounded. "There’s Jing in Si Garden too?"
Father Bo smiled.
Bo Xichen led Bo Jin through a few small paths to a laboratory where the lights were on.
Bo Jin was slightly stunned. "When was this set up?"
Bo Xichen lowered his gaze. "It was set up just recently."
As they spoke, they pushed open the door and went inside. Gu Anxi was sitting at a lab bench, a laptop beside her displaying data.
Bo Jin walked over. "What’s Anxi doing?"
Gu Anxi looked up. "Aunt!" Then she lowered her head again. "I’m writing a paper and need some data."
Bo Jin nodded understandingly. "So you’re borrowing Xichen’s lab? Be careful, dear. These chemicals are very dangerous. It wouldn’t be good if you spilled any on yourself."
Gu Anxi replied obediently, "I will, Aunt."
Bo Jin was somewhat satisfied with her attitude. Not talking back to elders and knowing how to please people—that’s probably this girl’s only redeeming quality. But if she looks so obedient, how did she end up getting into a fight at school?
While Bo Jin was speaking, Bo Xichen’s gaze fell on four small, faintly green vials on the lab bench. Each seemed to contain about 300 mL. He picked one up and looked at Gu Anxi.
