Chapter 39
Examine Yourself And Show Your Level Of Understanding!
Luo Feng’s small room was extremely crowded on the first day of tutoring.
In the past, he had never thought that his bedroom would be required to take on the responsibility of being a library. Hence, Ai Tingya was left to use the desk alone while Luo Feng sat on the bed. Lei Jian found a small stool to do the questions. The conditions were quite tough.
Luo Feng stared at the back view of the two of them who were engrossed in their questions and seemed to recall something from the past.
In his previous life, Lei Jin’s family was happy and his parents were open-minded. They did not force him to study so he calmly ranked last.
At that time, Luo Feng wanted to go to the same university as Xing Miaomiao, so he worked hard for the last semester. Lei Jin, on the other hand, started to relax and was prepared to get a high school diploma before going out to work.
However, Lei Jin’s father was injured at the construction site and his nerves were injured when the college entrance examination was approaching. He had to be attended to for a long period of time. The pillar of the family fell. At that time, Lei Jin refused to wait until graduation and was going to drop out of school to work.
Lei Jin’s father’s head was wrapped in gauze, and his limbs were not very good. Even so, he gritted his teeth and jumped up to give Lei Jin a punch. The man’s face was covered in tears as he begged Lei Jin to study hard. He did not want him to have to rely only on his physical strength in the future.
Lei Jin seemed to be a different person overnight. He studied late into the night every day and woke up at 5:30 in the morning to memorize vocabulary. He slept three to four hours a day and could still open his eyes in cla.s.s.
However, his foundation was really too weak. Luo Feng still remembered Lei Jin crying bitterly while eating, saying that he was very anxious and under a lot of pressure, forgetting things he learnt and having to relearn everything over and over again. It was very painful.
It was also at that time that Lei Jin’s thick hair began to leave him and never grew back.
The results of the college entrance examination were also not satisfactory. Lei Jin’s score was still a few points away from getting into the second-tier university. He could only enter the better third-tier schools. However, he managed to obtain a university diploma at the very least.
After this incident, the Lei Jin family suffered heavy losses, yet they still chose to help Luo Feng when he was seriously ill.
Luo Feng subconsciously reached out and touched Lei Jin’s head. Under Teacher Yu’s tyrannical power, he shaved his fashionable afro into a crew cut. His short hair was a bit p.r.i.c.kly, and pressing it on it was like pressing on a brush.
“Why are you touching your father?” Lei Jin dodged unhappily. “You can’t touch a man’s head or a woman’s waist, understand?”
Luo Feng retracted his hand and said, “Lei Jin, did Uncle Lei change to another construction site?”
“That’s right.”
“Tell Uncle Lei not to go.” Luo Feng hoped that he could avoid the damage.
“Why?”
Luo Feng placed his hand on Lei Jin’s shoulder and patiently said, “Brother, think about it. You didn’t study hard for the past two years and don’t know a lot of knowledge, so you must be under a lot of pressure. Can you do it without anyone hawking over you? Besides, Auntie Sun has a soft personality and can’t control you, so Uncle Lei should definitely keep an eye on you.”
Lei Jin pushed his hand away. “I’m not that bad.”
Luo Feng raised his eyebrows and stared seriously into Lei Jin’s eyes.
“Alright, you’re right. But my father needs to earn money!” Lei Jin admitted defeat after a while.
“Is your future or that bit of money more important? Besides, it won’t be long now. How about this, I’ll pay for your family’s living expenses during this period of time?” Luo Feng continued.
Lei Jin looked at Luo Feng a few more times suspiciously. He felt that Luo Feng was too strange tonight. He said some nonsense and even wanted to give Luo Feng money.
“Are you having a fever? I want to learn from you, don’t disturb me.” Lei Jin shivered, he could clearly feel that Luo Feng wasn’t joking, he was too serious so his first reaction was to hide away from it.
Luo Feng said, “Brother, I’m not joking. The college entrance exam will follow you for a lifetime. Uncle Lei will definitely care more about you compared to his work.”
“Got it,” Lei Jin whispered back, engrossed in the paper.
Luo Feng couldn’t help but laugh when he saw how serious Lei Jin was even though he couldn’t solve the question. He scratched his head like a monkey learning how to write. The Lei Jin in this life came to his senses earlier than in his previous life, so he would definitely be able to avoid the tragedy.
Ai Tingya was also secretly observing Luo Feng as he stared at Lei Jin with a gratified smile.
In the past, Luo Feng’s gaze was always locked onto her, but it suddenly landed on someone else. Ai Tingya still couldn’t help but to feel jealous even though that person was Luo Feng’s good brother.
“Is there a problem?” Luo Feng noticed Ai Tingya’s gaze and thought that she was stumped by something.
“I’ve finished answering the questions. Help me take a look.” Ai Tingya pointed at the paper and said.
“Let me see.” Luo Feng took the paper and scanned through it, “You’ve improved a lot from before, so let’s change the punishment.”
Luo Feng pinched Ai Tingya’s small face and patted her head lovingly.
Lei Jin said sourly, “Yo, yo, yo, Sweetie, do I also qualify for the punishment? You have to be gentler, alright?”
“Scram!” Luo Feng kicked the stool.
Ai Tingya was also amused by his comical appearance. The dull learning environment became lively.
From then on, the three of them would go to Luo Feng’s house for tuition after their evening self-study sessions every day. The day students had one less night self-study session than the students who stayed on campus, so they spent more time at Luo Feng’s house than in school.
Studying until eleven or midnight was even more common.
Lei Jin was fine. He could go home after walking a few streets, but it was not very convenient for Ai Tingya.
The only mode of transportation in the middle of the night was Luo Feng’s bicycle. However, Mother Luo was worried about an accident because it was too late, so she placed a bed on the balcony.
Whenever it got too late, she would let Ai Tingya sleep in Luo Feng’s room and get Luo Feng to sleep on the balcony.
Their relationship quickly heated up, and they were so close that they wished they could even go to the toilet together.
As a result, Lei Jin felt that he was very redundant. He did not have enough to eat every day, but he had a stomach full of lovey doveiness.
On this day, he caught Ai Tingya handing Luo Feng a small note. She actually wrote that she was laughing at him for having ink on his face. Did she have to specially send a note for such a small matter?!
“Boring! You’re delaying my studies!” He indignantly took the exercise book to the dining room. Out of sight, out of mind. The young couple was simply too sweet.
“Lei Jin, why are you sitting here?” Mother Luo noticed him.
“Ahahaha, it’s quieter here. I need an absolutely quiet environment when I’m doing the questions.” Lei Jin laughed. He couldn’t say that it was caused by a young couple.
“You must ask Xiao Feng if there’s anything you don’t understand. Your mother just called me to ask if you’re serious.” Mother Luo said with concern.
She naturally hoped that Luo Feng had outstanding friends around him, so she also hoped that Lei Jin could get into a good university.
“I understand. Thank you, Auntie. We’ll work hard for the targeted examination.”
There would be two targeted examinations before the college entrance examination. They were all comparable to the college entrance examination, be it in terms of the level of the test papers or the standards of the examination hall. The results of these two examinations would roughly be able to show their standards at the college entrance examination.
Lei Jin also wanted to know how much he had improved under Luo Feng’s guidance.
