Chapter 434 Xanthen laughed happily and grabbed a new set of cards.

This time, she picked out the hardest puzzle there was, a five-stor Sudoku that not even the sixth graders could solve, let alone him! "Alright, let's go!" She couldn't afford to slack off this time, starting to fill in the answers with focus. But after just filling in two, Orion finished again. He handed her his card, which was just as precise and commct as before! Xanthea was so shocked that she dropped her pencil, looking at him incredulously, "You're so smart!" She had never lost at Sudoku against her classmates, not even to the older students. This was the first tshe had been thoroughly bested by someone! Orion fidgeted with the card in his hand, worried she might not like him winning.

"You won, so you can punish me. But, but let's count it at the end, okay? Let's switch to Rubik's cubes!" To offset the punishment, Xanthea scrambled two Rubik's cubes and thrust them into his hands without a second thought.

Rubik's cubes were her forte, undoubtedly no one could. Yet, in mere seconds, Orion had solved them and placed them back on the ground.

Xanthea looked at it, and the Rubik's Cube in her hand fell with a "thud." When she looked up again, her big eyes were filled with admiration, "Wow-" "You're amazing!!!" She clung to his hands as if she had discovered an incredible treasure, her arms as delicate as porcelain.

She had long realized she was much smarter than her peers, playing games with them was just a one-sided crush, with no fun at all. Yet, they kept at it eagerly, only Ethan occasionally won against her, and Samuel could just barely tie with her Unexpectedly, be was even smarter than her brother! He wasn't just a little mute, he was a genius! And she adored geniuses! Orion, under her admiring gaze, a hint of shyness in his eyes.

Would she keep playing with him then? "You've won again, so you can punishtwice" Xanthea lightly shook his arm, saying she would obediently accept the punishment, but her slightly bitten pink lips and blinking, watery eyes seemed to say: With Xan being this cute, could you really dare to punish me? Orion shook his head, unable to bear it.

Xanthea's coquettish attack succeeded, and she triumphantly made a V sign, picking up the last brainteaser book.

This was her secret weapon! Orion saw a sly spark in her slightly upturned eyes, looking every bit the cunning little fox she was, utterly adorable.

Xanthea: "Quick question in three seconds: How far can a fox run into the woods?" Halfway into the forest (Because in the other halfway, it will run out of it).

Orion watched her, his lips pressed together.

The cunning little Xanthea, knowing he couldn't speak, laughed gleefully, feeling like she had avenged herself, and closed the brainteaser book, "You lost!" "You didn't punishjust now, so I won't punish you either, okay?" Orion nodded.

Xanthea released his arm and said I m kindly, "But I didn't say Dwouldn't 'set a condition. The content is on e novelenglish.net! 1 want to see...

She suddenly leaned closer, making,Orion's breath hitch. He instinctively stepped back, fearing she would want to see his face. As if reading his mind, Xanthes shook her head, "Don't worry, I'm not asking to see your face. I just want to see your eyes, okay?"
