Chapter 316: The Teacher’s Attention
Fortunately, Feng Yuan had a partner. He didn’t spend as much time with Xu Gui as with Yan Jinyun. Otherwise, he really couldn’t tolerate it.
Xu Gui glanced in Yan Jinyu’s direction again.
Ask her?
Forget it.
If he really asked and she said that he had to treat the gift seriously, he would really be finished.
He should ask Yuan.
“Yuan, if I really ask Luo Yikun for help, will Eldest Miss Yan be angry?”
“No, she’s not that petty.” Actually, Jinyu might not even care if Xu Gui did it or not.
What Jinyu cared about was that she could get rid of it herself.
He had seen it just now. When Jinyu saw the pile of study materials and papers on the table, her expression froze for a moment.
She was clearly afraid to see these things.
It was also his fault for gloating.
Fortunately, Yun’er saved him. Yun’er was still the best…
Just as he thought that, he received a message from Yan Jinyun.
Content: “I’ve finished my share. I’ve highlighted the main points of the report and left it at home. I’ll bring it over to you tomorrow. Look at the main points I’ve highlighted. You won’t waste too much time.”
Feng Yuan felt dizzy.
He looked like he was about to faint.
Indeed, one should not gloat too much and only want to watch others’ good shows.
He couldn’t bear not to read the main points that Yun’er had personally drawn out.
However, Yun’er’s next message made him silent.
I want to go to North City University with you.
North City University was also a top university in the country. It was not easy to get into it.
He had originally planned to study at North City University too, but he simply needed his family to come forward and spend some money to get in. Now that he saw Yun’er’s message, he suddenly wanted to try to enter it with his own exam results.
Was he crazy?
With his lousy grades…
However, when he saw the two people beside him, he suddenly felt that he still had some hope.
He was in third last place in the cla.s.s, Xu Gui was in second last, and Luo Yikun was in last place.
“Alright, since Yuan said that Eldest Miss Yan won’t be angry, the two of us will do it together.”
“Give me the important part of the materials that needs to be highlighted. I’ll take it back and highlight the important parts. From tomorrow onwards, I’ll do the questions in the cla.s.sroom or read the important parts during cla.s.s. I’ll go to the library in the afternoon or on the weekend. I’ll come up with a study plan.”
Xu Gui looked at Luo Yikun in a daze. Then, the corners of his lips twitched, “Y-you don’t have to be so serious, right?”
Luo Yikun’s expression turned serious for a second. “Since you’ve decided to do it, you have to do it seriously. Do you actually just want to bluff your way through? In that case, why waste that time?”
Xu Gui was shocked by him. “W-Why are you so fierce? I was just saying. I didn’t say no.”
“Y-you can do whatever you want. Just arrange it and let me know. Anyway, I don’t have anything else to do. I can free up my time anytime.”
Xu Gui did not realize that he was already being timid in front of Luo Yikun.
Seeing him like this, Luo Yikun nodded in satisfaction. “Yes, I’ll arrange it.”
The smile in his eyes was a little obvious. “Don’t worry, I’ll teach you well and let you get into a good university in three months.”
Xu Gui sneered and rolled his eyes, “What nonsense are you talking about? You’re the last in our cla.s.s… Oh, no, you’re the last in our year and you want to teach me so that I could go to university? Where’s your logic? I should be the one teaching you!”
“Alright, you teach me then.”
Xu Gui was stunned. Why did he feel so strange when he saw Luo Yikun say such words with such a sly smile?
He placed the books about the study materials onto Luo Yikun’s desk. “Don’t you want to highlight the main points? Take them!”
Luo Yikun smiled and took them. It was unknown if it was intentional or not, but when he took the books, he held Xu Gui’s hand.
Xu Gui was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand. The books almost fell to the ground. They were only saved because Luo Yikun quickly caught them.
Xu Gui felt uncomfortable and was about to scold him when he saw Luo Yikun placing the books on the table attentively. Luo Yikun did not have any special reaction.
Was it really an accident?
Was he too paranoid?
He was doubting himself…
However, he did not see Luo Yikun rubbing his fingertips carefully and smiling.
Luo Yikun thought that Eldest Miss Yan had helped him a lot. Just because of this, he would return this favor to her when he had the chance in the future.
As for whether Eldest Miss Yan could tell what he had thoughts for Xu Gui, he dared to say that she could definitely tell, even if she rarely paid attention to someone “unimportant” like him.
The number one killer, Chi, was not an undeserved reputation.
Other than her skills, her perception must be extraordinary too.
In reality, Yan Jinyu really didn’t think too much. She simply wanted to throw that set of test papers to someone else.
“Jinyu, did you give away that set of test papers just like that?” Tan s.h.i.+yun turned back and asked.
However, the moment she turned back, her gaze would always sweep at Bo Lang first before quickly sweeping past him.
“Mm-hm.”
“But from what I see, the dean seemed to have bought them personally. The dean doesn’t give cla.s.ses to the third-year students so it’s impossible for him to have the entire brand new set of Year Three’s test papers. The dean seems to be quite good to you.”
“Is that so?” Yan Jinyu chuckled. “It’s probably because he was entrusted by Brother Nine to take care of me. Brother Nine has never gone to high school either. Although he has mastered all the knowledge and even received a double doctorate from the Imperial Capital University, he doesn’t know that a high school student, especially the third-year students, needs to do some suitable test papers. It’s not strange that he asked the director to take care of me.”
“…” Tan s.h.i.+yun and the others. For some reason, they felt like they had been shown off to.
They were talking about the dean taking special care of her because of Master Nine. She could say that Master Nine had never attended high school before, so why did she have to emphasize his double doctorate in Imperial Capital University?
Was she trying to show off how outstanding Master Nine was?
“…Then, Jinyu, you’re very blessed. Your fiancé treats you so well.” After holding it in for a long time, Tan s.h.i.+yun finally said this.
“Right, I think so too.”
“…” She flaunted again.
“What I’m trying to say is that since he’d bought the test papers and reports for you, you should at least take a look at them casually. You don’t have to spend too much time. It’s not bad to just take a look at them during cla.s.s. After all, it’s someone else’s kind intentions, be it the director’s kind intentions or your fiancé’s kind intentions.”
Yan Jinyu put down the textbook that she was about to prop up and smiled at her, “Are you concerned about me?”
Tan s.h.i.+yun was stunned when she heard that.
Concerned about her?
She recovered her friendly smile. “Didn’t we agree to be friends? You’re my friend. Of course, I care about you.”
Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled.
“Since it’s his kind intention, I’ll just accept it. It doesn’t matter who I give it to. I’d only studied until my third year of junior high school. If I can’t keep up with this knowledge, there’s no point in giving those things to me. It’s better to give them to someone who needs them more.”
Xu Gui shouted inwardly, No! I don’t need them!
Tan s.h.i.+yun and Bo Lang were silent for a second. Their expressions were also weird for that second.
“Besides, didn’t I keep a portion of them?” Yan Jinyu gestured for her to look at the few sets of exam papers on her desk.
“These are enough for me to do the test papers.”
Tan s.h.i.+yun made a helpless expression. “Alright, Jinyu, you can ask me questions that you don’t know how to answer when you do the test papers. We’re friends. There’s no need to stand on ceremony.”
“Sure.”
Of course, there were no problems. For the next week, Yan Jinyu was a complete slacker.
She was tired of playing stupid games on her phone in cla.s.s. She even brought the tablet that Yin Jiujin had prepared for her from the dorm to the cla.s.sroom and played games every day as if no one was around.
Oh, it was not as if there was no one else around. At least, she was still placing a book on the table to block it. She was not so blatant. Although it was useless, the teacher standing on the podium could still see it clearly.
She was still like this after another week. Some teachers could not tolerate her anymore.
Especially her English teacher who liked her docile and obedient looks.
The English teacher’s name was Hu Chengcheng. She was a female teacher in her thirties.
Friday, morning, English cla.s.s.
For the nth time, the English teacher saw Yan Jinyu looking down and playing games. She ignored the princ.i.p.al and the dean’s instructions and called her up, “Student Yan Jinyu.”
Yan Jinyu, who was engrossed in the game, wasn’t actually addicted to it. She looked up as soon as she heard the teacher calling her. “Teacher, are you calling me?” Her hand was still on the tablet, so the game wasn’t affected at all.
“…” Hu Chengcheng, who saw this scene, was speechless. If such a formidable ability was used in learning, she would definitely be very outstanding.
Such an outstanding child, why…
Why was she so playful?
“Stand up and read this paragraph I wrote on the blackboard.”
There were more than 30 words in that paragraph.
Yan Jinyu stood up, but her index fingers were still on the tablet. She looked at the blackboard and smiled. “Teacher, I don’t know how to.”
“…” Bo Lang, who was sleeping.
Couldn’t a person who knew many languages read simple English?
However, Hu Chengcheng did not doubt her words. She asked with heartache and pity, “Really?”
“I really don’t know.”
“You don’t know any words?”
“Not really. I still know one or two words occasionally. When I was in junior high in the town, my results were above average. Although we only have less than 100 people in each grade, I still know a few words. It’s just that I haven’t interacted with them for too long and have almost forgotten them.”
“…” Bo Lang. He couldn’t sleep even more.
Did she also train her ability to lie without changing her expression?
Tan s.h.i.+yun turned back to look at Yan Jinyu. Her expression was a little indescribable.
Even Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan were silent, let alone Luo Yikun, who knew Yan Jinyu’s ident.i.ty, and Luo Qiu, who had seen Yan Jinyu make a move.
“It’s fine. Just read as much as you can.” Hu Chengcheng was very patient.
Yes, the obedient, beautiful, and cute child who grew up in a small town had dropped out of school after her third year in junior high.
Her heart ached for her.
Yan Jinyu looked at Hu Chengcheng and suddenly pressed the black screen for the tablet. She didn’t care if the game had ended or not.
This was the first time she had pressed the black screen before the game ended. In the past, even if something happened to her when she played games, she would still mult.i.task.
There seemed to be something wrong with this Teacher Hu. Why did she keep feeling that she was looking at her with a gaze full of “maternal love”?
However, this was also the one thing that touched her the most, even if she didn’t want to admit it.
She had never had that since she was young.
The only people who made her feel this way a little were her aunties Yan Ruyu and Luo Linlin.
And the way they looked at her was a little different from the way Hu Chengcheng looked at her.
Even she could not tell what was different.
This feeling was very strange.
Actually, she had long realized that Hu Chengcheng was looking at her with such a gaze. It was just that she didn’t care much. Now that she looked at it seriously, it really felt different.
She found it interesting and a little touching.
“It’s fine. You don’t have to be shy. Be bold. We’re all cla.s.smates. No one will laugh at you if you can’t read well.” Her tone was like she was coaxing a child.
“…” Yan Jinyu. What the h.e.l.l was being shy about?
Seeing that she was silent, Hu Chengcheng thought that she was frightened. She lowered her voice even more gently, “Why don’t I read it with you?”
