A brief conversation made Qiao Xi develop a great liking for Zhou Yi.
After all, he was the one who saved her, and he spoke so gently and politely. All the young masters around her were playboys with bad tempers.
Qiao Xi rarely met a young man like Zhou Yi, so it was quite normal for her to develop a crush on him.
After Qiao Xi regained her strength, Zhou Yi helped her stand up. There was a full head height difference between them.
When Qiao Xi looked up at him with her little face, she looked incredibly cute.
Zhou Yi couldn't help but stroke her head and said, "It's not safe for you to go home alone at this late hour. Let me walk you home."
Qiao Xi blushed so hard that her ears turned red. She twisted the corner of her sleeve and whispered, "Ah, wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"
"Anyway, I won't be able to fall asleep if I go back now. It doesn't matter," Zhou Yi said, then he drooped his eyes a little dejectedly.
Qiao Xi seemed to notice that he was in a bad mood and asked softly, "What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"
"Well, my mood was really off today, but meeting you has actually cheered me up a lot," Zhou Yi said, putting on an act of being heart - broken to win Qiao Xi's sympathy. With the added line "Meeting you has made me feel so much better", the girl's heart started pounding.
Unexpectedly, although he looked young, he seemed to be a man with many stories, with an air of mystery that came from having experienced the world.
The girl's eyes sparkled as she asked, "Did I really make you feel better..."
Zhou Yi stroked her head like a gentle big brother and said, "Yes, I think little Xi is so cute. A lot of my bad feelings have just faded away. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Yi."
Zhou Yi naturally changed her name to little Xi.
The girl didn't feel repulsed at all. She was just a bit shy, as if no one had ever called her so tenderly before.
Qiao Xi grew up in the Qiao family, a family with extremely strict rules. She had an older brother and an older sister.
She had been in poor health since childhood, and her parents didn't pay much attention to her. Although they provided her with a privileged living environment, they didn't give her much love.
She had always been very lonely, with few friends around. Her sister even bullied her secretly.
She always went around alone. She was afraid that no one would even notice if she died one day.
"If you hadn't saved me today, I'm afraid I would have died there. Brother Yi, thank you so much," Qiao Xi said, her eyes full of gratitude. Maybe meeting Zhou Yi today was a kind of fate. It was as if destiny had arranged for them to meet.
The wind in this summer seemed gentler. Perhaps it was because her state of mind was different from usual. Chatting with Zhou Yi was a very pleasant thing.
As they walked and talked, Qiao Xi soon learned about Zhou Yi's identity.
The girl said excitedly, "So you're also a student at Huaihai University! I'm also a freshman this year. We'll be able to see each other often at school!"
"Yes, I'm a sophomore this year. I'm little Xi's senior," Zhou Yi replied.
"Does that mean we're friends?" Qiao Xi asked.
"Of course. In that case, little Xi is the first friend I've made at school," Zhou Yi said.
Girls are always very sensitive to words like "first", "only", and "special". They like to hear that they are special to someone.
Sure enough, Qiao Xi's good impression of Zhou Yi increased. It seemed that this girl hadn't had much contact with the opposite sex and was easily won over by Zhou Yi's tricks.
"Here we are. My home is in this community," Qiao Xi said softly. She seemed a little regretful that time had passed so quickly.
Zhou Yi looked over. This was a high - end villa area in City A, where every inch of land was extremely valuable. He didn't expect Qiao Xi's family to be so wealthy.
However, there was no extra emotion in Zhou Yi's eyes.
He couldn't act like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world and show surprise. Nor could he look around aimlessly, or the girl would think he was ignorant and might even regard him as a man with ill - intentions who was only after her money.
Anyway, it would greatly reduce the girl's good impression of him. On the contrary, the more he showed that he cared about her as a person, the more he could win her favor.
Zhou Yi stopped and looked at Qiao Xi intently, as if he was a bit reluctant to part. "Then I won't walk you in. Please let me know when you get home, okay?"
Qiao Xi shyly bit her lip and said, "But we don't have each other's contact information yet..."
Zhou Yi immediately took out his phone and showed his WeChat QR code. "Now we do," he said.
Qiao Xi added him on WeChat, and they said goodbye in the wind.
As Qiao Xi walked home, she couldn't help humming a little song, which showed that she was in a great mood.
The girl saved Zhou Yi's contact as "Brother Yi", and Zhou Yi saved hers as "Little Xi". They started chatting on their way home.
Zhou Yi checked her WeChat Moments and learned that she liked visiting art exhibitions. He immediately started to learn about them and even placed an order for some books online.
If you want to win a woman's heart, you have to enter her world first.
Of course, this only works on a woman who is sincere, pure, and serious about relationships.
If these methods are used on a gold - digger, they won't work because they don't care about these things.
What they like is money, or rather, these things can only work if there is money as a prerequisite.
That's why these methods work on Qiao Xi but not on Chu Han.
You attract the kind of woman that matches what you offer.
If you try to impress a woman simply with money, all you'll get is a materialistic woman. Once you lose your money, she'll abandon you without hesitation.
Money can be a foundation, but it can't be the whole reason she loves you.
When Zhou Yi pursues a girl, he often focuses more on winning her heart.
If he puts his heart into it, he will naturally get the same in return. It's a two - way street. Sincerity combined with tricks is the ultimate weapon.
In other words, being only sincere won't work. It can easily turn you into a love - struck fool or a resentful person, like the original owner.
Using only tricks won't work either. It can easily lead to boredom. The combination of the two is just right.
Following the original owner's memory, Zhou Yi found the resting room.
Although it was called a resting room, it was actually about the size of a studio apartment.
The interior was shabbily decorated and looked a bit messy.
Zhou Yi moved his arms and neck to relieve the fatigue.
It had been a tiring day. He pushed open the bathroom door, and there was a small sink outside.
Zhou Yi put his phone aside, splashed some water on his face to wake himself up, and then picked up a towel, ready to take a shower.
The phone on the sink lit up. Zhou Yi glanced at it. It was a message from Qiao Xi.
"Brother Yi, I'm home. I took a short walk alone just now. How about you?"

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
