Chapter 1487: You Are My Little Love Song (54)
“Ah? This book?” s.h.i.+ Niange was stunned. “This… medical book?”
Qin Siting nodded, then picked up the cup of fruit tea by his side and took a sip. He seemed very satisfied with the taste and took another sip.
Seeing that he liked the drink, s.h.i.+ Niange felt that she should tell Auntie Xiang tomorrow to make more and put them in the fridge. This way, when Qin Siting came over, he could drink more.
Right now, his hand was injured and he was very satisfied with her bandage. Perhaps he will come again tomorrow.
“If you want to read the book, take it back and read it. Anyway, I borrowed it from the Provincial Library. In two days, we can return it together.” As she said this, she felt that her words were not bad. She even gave them the opportunity to go to the library together. She silently praised herself for being smart.
Qin Siting glanced at the little clever girl in front of him and did not say anything else. He did not seem to feel much about the pa.s.sage of time, but s.h.i.+ Niange was worried that he would leave immediately after every topic ended.
But it was already so late. How much longer would he stay?
“Almighty Qin, the evening self-study session ended a little early today. I still have two sets of papers to finish. You didn’t finish the homework I copied for you, did you? Look at my poor grades, I don’t have anything to do right now. Why don’t we do homework together? You can teach me the questions I don’t know.” s.h.i.+ Niange’s expression was sincere.
Actually, she was a little nervous when she said this. After all, it was already so late…
Qin Siting glanced at the time. Recently, evening self-study only ended at nine or ten o’clock every day. He did not feel that there was anything wrong with the two of them doing homework together so late at night. He answered, “Sure.”
s.h.i.+ Niange had never been so happy and proactive in her homework. Without any hesitation, she rushed to retrieve her bag.
Although this small bar counter was not big, the two of them sat opposite each other to do their homework. She would definitely be embarra.s.sed to ask him to go to the study room with her. It was already late at night, and the two of them were alone. At the very least, this was the living room. There was even a floor-to-ceiling window opposite them. It looked quite open.
If they entered the study together and the s.p.a.ce quietly shrunk, she would be so distracted that she wouldn’t be able to do her homework.
She glanced at his hand again and took his homework out of his bag. She placed it in front of him and gave him a look that said they could begin.
Qin Siting picked up his pen and glanced at her again.
Usually, the two of them sat at the same table. Although they sat very close, they were sitting side by side. Now that they were facing each other, as long as they were on the stage, they would be able to meet each other’s eyes. This feeling was really… too exciting and nerve wracking.
Sensing his gaze, s.h.i.+ Niange lowered her head and did her homework seriously.
Furthermore, at the thought that she had helped him to copy some of the questions in his homework, she felt that the atmosphere was very strange and intimate.
The surroundings were too quiet, and the questions on the paper were too difficult. s.h.i.+ Niange gradually placed her attention on her homework. The only sound in the air was the occasional rustle when the two of them wrote.
The questions were difficult and there was a lot of homework. Time gradually pa.s.sed.
When she reached the last big question, s.h.i.+ Niange raised her aching neck. She looked up and saw that Qin Siting had already finished writing. He sat opposite her and did not speak. It seemed like he was watching her write.
Her face instantly heated up. “Look how long I’ve been doing my homework…”
“Not too long.” Qin Siting said indifferently, “But it’s only been twenty minutes. I can tell that your method of solving the question is still the same as that of a soph.o.m.ore. Your way of thinking hasn’t changed.”
She was used to her poor grades. When she heard his words, she did not blush or pant. “Did I answer correctly?”
“The answer is correct.”
“Then that’s good. Teacher Zhao also said that my way of solving questions can’t keep up with everyone’s, but fortunately, I can answer it in the simplest way. Anyway, the college entrance examination mainly depends on the answers. There are so many papers, and the teacher won’t check my thoughts one by one. No matter how rigorous my thoughts are, there won’t be any bonus points.” She lowered her head to continue solving the last question.
She had indeed written all the questions correctly, but the speed was very slow. When she finished, she saw that Qin Siting’s gaze was still on her paper, patiently watching her write.
s.h.i.+ Niange suddenly felt as though her heart had been splashed with alcohol. It was hot and burning. She pinched the pen in her hand and put it down. “All right, I’m done.”
“En.”
She glanced at the time.
10:30 p.m.
Qin Siting was actually at her house. He had yet to leave at 10:30 p.m.
“It’s already so late…,” she muttered softly.
“En, I’ve finished my homework, drank the fruit tea, and wrapped my hands.” Qin Siting slowly counted the reasons she had tried to make him stay. “Can I leave now?”
s.h.i.+ Niange looked at him: “…”
Seeing that she wanted to say something but did not dare to, he did not give her a chance to ask him to stay for the night. He put the German doctor’s book into his bag and left with his black shoulder bag.
s.h.i.+ Niange thought that her room was really big. There were several guest rooms on the upper and lower floors. If he wanted to avoid arousing suspicion, he could sleep in the guest room further away from her room. It was already so late. What time would it be if he went back?
However, Qin Siting did not give her the opportunity to speak and left.
She quickly got off the bar counter and quickly followed. “Um, Almighty Qin…”
Qin Siting had already walked to the door. He turned back to look at her. “It’s not early. Take a shower and go to sleep.”
She swallowed the words she was about to say and suddenly lost the courage to speak.
She really wanted to say, “You can sleep here for one night. Let’s go to school tomorrow.”
However, she said, “En, all right. You have to watch your hands. Don’t touch the water when you shower later.”
“En,” he answered and pushed the door open to leave.
Seeing his back view disappear from the villa, s.h.i.+ Niange stood by the door and looked at his back view. She pursed her lips and was reluctant to part with him.
On the other hand, Qin Siting did not turn back. If they walked out of the small path of Lishui Villa, it would be the main road. It would be easy to get a car. She did not need to worry about him returning home alone.
However, when she closed the door and turned back to look at the empty living room, where she was left alone, and then at the bar counter, her heart was filled with panic.
But she also knew that even if she really asked, Qin Siting would not stay.
