Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 75: College Entrance Examination

As the night grew silent, a hazy drowsiness enveloped Chu Xia. The fan in hand swayed more and more slowly, and the eyes were halfway closed.

At this moment, suddenly, a scalding heat source approached Chu Xia, causing her to instantly open her eyes.

"It's so hot. Stay away from me," Chu Xia murmured quietly, pushing Cen Zhengnian away.

Cen Zhengnian not only did not move away but also more audaciously pulled her into his arms. "I don't feel hot."

Chu Xia stared at him, surprised at his ability to speak nonsense with his eyes wide open. Not hot? He was hotter than a furnace.

But her feeble struggles became smaller and smaller when Cen Zhengnian's kiss landed on her ear and neck. She forgot what she initially wanted to do.

Afterward, Cen Zhengnian went out to fetch water, drenched in sweat. Chu Xia couldn't sleep without taking a bath.

At this time, there was no one in the corridor outside, only the dim yellow light above. Although the light was somewhat dim, it was not too dark to see the way.

Cen Zhengnian took the hot water and then went to the water room to fetch a basin of cold water. As he came out, he happened to run into a groggy Ye Xingxiu who was about to go to the bathroom.

Seeing Cen Zhengnian holding a basin of water, upper body clad in a shirt with most buttons undone, slightly disheveled hair, sweat on his forehead, and a lazy look in his eyes as if he had just had a satisfying meal and drink.

Ye Xingxiu's eyes instantly widened, and he scolded him in a hushed voice, "Cen Zhengnian! You sent your son to my place, and here you are, having a good time next door. Can you still be a decent person?"

Cen Zhengnian calmly glanced at him, "You're a researcher, mind your language. My wife and I are legally married, marital life is not considered 'having a good time.'"

As he walked past Ye Xingxiu with the water basin, he added, "I forgot you're not married. You probably wouldn't understand."

Ye Xingxiu exclaimed, "What the hell!" and turned around, staring at Cen Zhengnian in disbelief.

What kind of nonsense was he talking about? It was like crazily stabbing a knife into his heart, and he seemed to find it not vicious enough, so he used his hand to push and turn it around.

So what if he wasn't married? Why was he being provoked like this? No, tomorrow he would call his mother and ask her to send over more photos of potential blind date candidates!

After returning from Cen Zhengnian's place, Chu Xia continued to focus on her studies as the time for the college entrance examination drew nearer.

On Sunday, she accompanied Cen Huai'an to Grandpa Jiang's house for a chess lesson. After completing two sets of practice papers in the study, Chu Xia came out to pour herself a glass of water, ready to take a break for her eyes. That's when she saw Jiang Zhiguan bustling in with Zhang Lu.

Upon spotting Chu Xia, Jiang Zhiguan walked over, poured herself a glass of water, and quickly drank it down. Meanwhile, Zhang Lu tugged at her clothes, saying, "Mom, Mom, I want water too."

Jiang Zhiguan pulled her clothes away and handed the cup to Zhang Lu, saying, "Pour it yourself."

Then she grabbed Chu Xia, looking like she was about to share a big secret, "Do you know? There's a bun shop in Xidan that actually sells human flesh buns! The owner killed many people, and they say the kitchen is filled with human arms and legs..."
