"Damn! No wonder you're so strong! You really have the legendary eight-pack abs—let me touch, let me touch!" Originally, Andrew Grant wanted to give Henry Cole a good reality check, but to his surprise, this chubby guy didn't wake up at all. Instead, his eyes lit up as if he'd discovered a new continent, and he reached out his pudgy hand to touch Andrew Grant's abs. Disgusted, Andrew Grant hurriedly pulled down his shirt and forcefully slapped his fat hand away.

"Tch, what's the big deal? You're not Emma Foster—even if you let me touch, I wouldn't care!" Seeing Andrew Grant slap his hand away, Henry Cole said disdainfully.

After saying that, Henry Cole leaned on the windowsill, eyes full of lust, drooling as he secretly watched Emma Foster.

"Tsk tsk, no wonder she's always ranked as the number one school beauty in our school! The day after tomorrow, I'll be her schoolmate, and then I can see her every day. Just thinking about it is exciting." Henry Cole muttered to himself, eyes shining.

"Your families live just across the street from each other. Don't you see her every day?" Andrew Grant rolled his eyes.

"She rarely comes out, so it's basically hard to see her." Henry Cole replied, then suddenly slapped his fat thigh. "Damn, I was so busy talking nonsense with you, a guy who doesn't understand women, that I forgot to get the binoculars."

With that, Henry Cole dashed downstairs.

Watching his plump figure quickly run out of the room, Andrew Grant was left speechless.

This guy even uses binoculars!

But Henry Cole came back up a moment later, looking dejected. "Too late, she already went inside."

"You guys live just across the street, and soon you'll both be schoolmates. Is it really necessary to use binoculars to peep? Next time you see her, just say hi and get to know her, isn't that enough?" Seeing Henry Cole's disappointed look, Andrew Grant couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.

"Yeah, easy for you to say! That's the school beauty of Changxi No.1 High, and she's a senior this year while we're just freshmen. If you say hi to her, do you think she'll even bother with you? Besides, I heard there are tons of guys at Changxi No.1 High trying to chase Emma Foster, and some of them are top students with great family backgrounds, but she just ignores them all." Henry Cole rolled his eyes.

"Really? I actually think she doesn't seem like the type to keep people at arm's length. She probably just doesn't want to date right now, so she ignores those guys on purpose. By the way, you haven't even started at Changxi No.1 High yet, so how do you know all this?" Andrew Grant asked.

"I heard it from a classmate. His older brother goes to Changxi No.1 High." Henry Cole replied.

"So that's how it is. But we're all still students, still young. We should focus more on our studies instead of worrying about school beauties and girls!" Andrew Grant earnestly advised.

"Yeah, yeah, talking to a bookworm like you who hasn't even grown up or seen the world about girls is just pointless." Seeing that Andrew Grant wouldn't talk about girls with him and instead advised him to study hard, Henry Cole immediately rolled his eyes in disdain.

With that, Henry Cole turned and thudded downstairs.

Boys from the mountains tend to be more simple and conservative than those from the city, and at that time, Andrew Grant and the others were still young, focused entirely on the high school entrance exam. In Baiyunshan Town Middle School, except for a few rebellious kids, talking about girls was always a taboo topic. As for Andrew Grant, besides studying, he devoted a large part of his energy to cultivation and self-improvement, so he had even less time or energy to think about girls. But after all, Andrew Grant had reached the age of adolescent curiosity about relationships between boys and girls. Especially after the pressure of the entrance exam was gone and a summer vacation had passed, his curiosity about such things seemed to suddenly sprout like grass after the rain, sometimes even appearing in his dreams.

Originally, after helping Emma Foster before, Andrew Grant had basically put her out of his mind and stayed focused. But after Big Cole's comments just now, his youthful heart couldn't help but stir. While tidying up his room, he couldn't control his mind from occasionally picturing Emma Foster's beautiful face, her full chest, perky butt, and long, fair legs.

"What is wrong with me today? It's all Big Cole's fault!" Andrew Grant, after all, was a simple-minded boy. Seeing those inappropriate images pop up in his mind from time to time, he felt a strong sense of guilt. Muttering to himself, he simply put down what he was doing, sat cross-legged on the floor, regulated his breathing, and tried to keep his mind clear.

After a while, Andrew Grant's mood gradually calmed, and all distracting thoughts disappeared.

With his mind clear, Andrew Grant opened his eyes, got up, and continued tidying his room, feeling especially refreshed.

This method of meditation was actually one of the secrets that allowed Andrew Grant to spend so much time cultivating and still achieve good grades, becoming the only student from Baiyunshan Town to get into the county's top high school. Whenever he felt bored with studying or couldn't concentrate, just a short meditation would refresh him and allow him to throw himself back into his studies with renewed energy, making him much more efficient than others.
