My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 434

Xanthea laughed happily and grabbed a new set of cards.

This time, she picked out the hardest puzzle there was, a five-star 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 correct 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 time she 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, he was even smarter than her brother!

He wasn't just a little mute; he was a genius!

And she adored geniuses!
