Miya looks around but she doesn't see Andre.
Joey listens to Miya's words and looks around. She is puzzled before, then she suddenly darkens her face to ask Ben, "is Andre studying now?"
Ben nods helplessly, "I just knock on the door of his room, but... he doesn't answer. I keep knocking, he finally asks me to get out impatiently, saying that he is sorting out the difference between different functions..."
"..." After Joey freezes for a while, she says, "I'm going to study!"
Then she goes to her room.
Miya looks at Joey's figure and can't believe her eyes. "Is Joey really going to learn?"
Ben nods. "She may go to learn maths."
Miya can't believe it anymore. She looks at Ben and says, "Aren't you kidding us?"
Ben shakes his head, he says, "No, Joey wants to enter the promotion class in the new semester and go to middle school next year."
"When does she have such a great dream?" Miya still can't believe it. She thinks of Andre and asks again, "what about Andre? Is his purpose the same as Joey’s?"
Ben nods. "Maybe it's because I'm too excellent. They envy me, so they want to catch up with me."
"..." Miya thinks that Ben is narcissistic.
"Mommy, are proud of me?" Ben asks.
Miya nods and extremely speechless.
Ben says, "If that's the case, then I'll do a few more exercises."
Ben finishes speaking, and then turns back to the house.
Now, only Miya and Alex are here.
"When do they like to learn so much?" Miya feels incredible.
Alex thinks for a while, "Probably because of pressure."
"Then you have no pressure?" Miya asks.
"What?"
"Your three-month bet is coming. Are you really going to jump off the building?" Miya says, giving Alex a white eye.
Alex receives that love-filled eyes, he says, "Honey, trust me!"
"Trust?" Miya snorts and turns her head away, preparing to ignore Alex.
"You will know it in a few days." Alex raises his hand to hold Miya's shoulder.
Miya shakes her shoulders quickly, escaping from Alex's hand, "What's going on in a few days! Do you think Alex Group is easy to beat? That's your painstaking effort. Won't it hurt you if you knocked it down?"
Miya is heartbroken.
Alex suddenly laughs, "Honey, are you worried about me?"
Miya gives Alex a white eye, which includes everything.
"I will return to work at the company within a few days, don't worry!" Alex walks in front of Miya and approaches her gradually, hoping she can look at him.
As a result, Miya turns around to avoid Alex's eyes.
