It's time for school to start.

In the dance studio, Zhou Peiyu could be seen wailing, "The wonderful holiday is over, and the difficult new semester is about to begin."

Wan Qiu was really looking forward to the start of the new semester, as he hadn't seen Teacher Jiang for a long time.

"I really never thought I'd actually see a student who enjoys class in person. Your teacher must have had a very interesting time teaching you," Zhou Peiyu said, glancing at Wan Qiu with a hint of envy.

Wan Qiu nodded: "Professor Jiang's lectures are very interesting."

“I remember you hired a private tutor directly.” Zhou Peiyu knew about Wan Qiu’s situation and had been secretly helping to cover it up. When they said these things, the two of them would whisper to each other.

"Um."

"So you never planned to go to school?" Zhou Peiyu asked.

"Teacher Jiang said she would let me go to school in the future."

"Oh, I see. So when are you starting school? Do you want to go to the same school as me?" Zhou Peiyu thought to herself, "That way I can come find you to play after class."

Let's play together after class.

Wan Qiu imagined the scene.

Wanqiu often saw everyone gathering together to play after class every day.

Students gathered in twos and threes in the dark, old corridor, playing and laughing, their voices mingling together.

Wan Qiu, who used to sit in the corner of the classroom, could always see this scene.

But I never imagined that one day I might become one of them.

After briefly imagining that scene, Wan Qiu lowered his head and gently pursed his lips.

Although Zhou Peiyu wasn't very good at discerning people's emotions, he knew that Wan Qiu was very happy right now.

“But you’ll probably be going to the same school as your brother, right?” Zhou Peiyu said.

Wan Qiu was taken aback.

"Your brother and I definitely don't go to the same school. If we did, with your brother being so handsome, wouldn't I know?"

The very outgoing Zhou Peiyu was one of those who would run around the hallways during breaks.

She would even run to the door of other classrooms to look at the handsome guys in those classes.

Wanqiu hesitated.

If he goes to school...

Should I go with Zhou Peiyu or with my younger brother?

Wan Qiu considered it very seriously.

If possible, I'd rather stay with my younger brother.

"I'm sorry," Wan Qiu suddenly said.

Zhou Peiyu was taken aback: "What did you do to wrong me?"

“I want to go to the same school as my younger brother,” Wan Qiu said.

"You scared me to death! It's okay, even if we're not in the same school, we can still keep in touch."

Zhou Peiyu's smile, which showed no sign of resentment, made Wan Qiu secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Does your brother look good in his school uniform?" Zhou Peiyu asked Wan Qiu mysteriously in a secretive voice.

"It looks good," Wan Qiu replied affirmatively.

“Then take a picture and send it to me when you have the chance!” Zhou Peiyu’s eyes lit up.

Wan Qiu nodded: "I'll ask my brother."

"Good brother."

Wan Qiu looked at the carefree Zhou Peiyu and laughed along.

——

Chu Yigui still started school. Wan Qiu watched Chu Yigui appear in the living room wearing his school uniform, looking very handsome.

"Can I take a picture of you?" Wan Qiu asked, holding her phone as she stood in front of Chu Yigui. "Zhou Peiyu said she wants to see you in your school uniform."

Chu Yigui did not refuse, but took a few steps back: "Can I take a picture of your whole body?"

Having obtained permission, Wan Qiu immediately took out his phone and took a picture.

"Brother, I'm going to school now," Chu Yigui said as Wan Qiu put down his phone.

Wan Qiu nodded: "Goodbye."

Chu Yi went to school, while Wan Qiu remained at home.

He looked at the photo on his phone and sent it to Zhou Peiyu.

Zhou Peiyu, who usually replies to messages immediately, probably didn't reply right away because she was at school.

Wan Qiu stared blankly at Chu Yigui on his phone.

Chu Yigui was very natural when taking photos, just like Chu Zhang.

Wanqiu hadn't worn those school uniforms, which were all very similar in style, for a long time.

Even Wanqiu no longer has a school uniform.

Before having any friends, Wanqiu didn't particularly look forward to going to school.

You can learn anywhere; Wanqiu's only purpose is to learn.

However, after making friends, the small possibility mentioned by Zhou Peiyu made Wanqiu unable to suppress a little bit of longing.

He looks better now.

I can do better on the test papers given by Teacher Jiang.

Does that mean I can make more friends at school?

Wan Qiu lay down on the sofa, not wanting to think about anything anymore.

It seems that the more he learns, the more he wants.

That's not good.

Wan Qiu huddled up, clutching his phone, looking at the few contacts in his address book.

He held it in his arms like a precious treasure.

They should be quite content.

When Jiang Chengfeng saw Wan Qiu again, he looked exactly the same as before he left.

Jiang Chengfeng had wondered if Wan Qiu might get a little fatter or taller, but the fact that she hadn't changed at all made him chuckle.

Heaven knows he gained seven kilograms over the Chinese New Year; you can clearly see his double chin now.

There's no way around it, the salary and benefits this time are just too generous, and people tend to gain weight when they relax.

Wan Qiu handed in her diary as if it were homework.

Jiang Chengfeng was conflicted about whether to read Wan Qiu's diary or not, but since it was an assignment, he decided to skim through it and give it a grade.

At Wanqiu's age, he is very sensitive to grades, and with the weekly summaries, he is definitely hoping to get good results.

But as Jiang Chengfeng flipped through the pages, he realized something was wrong.

Wan Qiu hadn't written in his diary for a period of time, and after that period, he actually started studying during his holidays.

While studying is important for students, holidays are just as important.

Wanqiu used the time she should have spent playing to study...

"Have you been learning from Chu Yigui all along?" Jiang Chengfeng asked.

"Mm." Wan Qiu nodded.

Jiang Chengfeng's expression was somewhat strange: "Why not play a little longer?"

“It’s also a lot of fun to study with my younger brother.”

Jiang Chengfeng gave Wan Qiu a review test, and Wan Qiu got a good score.

Jiang Chengfeng looked at the exam paper and examined it for a long time.

A new exam paper was prepared and Wanqiu was asked to retake it, and he still got a good score.

Jiang Chengfeng was somewhat surprised.

Seeing Wan Qiu's sudden improvement in grades, Jiang Chengfeng never expected that one day he would encounter a student who loved learning and needed special education.

Jiang Chengfeng reviewed what Wan Qiu had been learning from Chu Yigui during this period and realized that Chu Yigui was not blindly teaching Wan Qiu.

Based on the knowledge he had taught Wan Qiu, Chu Yigui reinforced the content that Wan Qiu had learned from the third to the fifth grade.

Wanqiu was a very hard-working student, but his grades were poor because he didn't understand the material.

But hard work always pays off unexpectedly at certain moments.

After Jiang Chengfeng successfully laid the foundation for Wan Qiu, Wan Qiu found it much easier to learn.

Jiang Chengfeng asked the elementary school for a few test papers for Wanqiu to do. Although Wanqiu's grades were not high, they were much better than at the beginning.

They've already reached a level comparable to the lower middle of a normal elementary school age.

If I had more time to study, I might be able to catch up.

Although it's impossible to return to the same grade as Chu Yigui, it's feasible to continue to the sixth grade at the original pace.

Jiang Chengfeng told Chu Jianshu and Yang Xiaoyu about the problem during the weekly summary.

"You mean he can go to school now?" Yang Xiaoyu asked, somewhat surprised.

“If he attends school and receives extracurricular tutoring, he should be able to keep up with the education,” Jiang Chengfeng suggested.

But Yang Xiaoyu frowned: "Wanqiu is already very tired, studying during the day and attending dance classes on weekends."

Jiang Chengfeng said, "But for Wan Qiu, learning is not a painful thing."

Chu Jianshu was somewhat surprised to hear this: "He likes studying?"

"That seems to be the case at present; he seems to have a strong interest in learning."

Jiang Chengfeng gave Wan Qiu's diary assignment to Chu Jianshu.

"Although it would be better to let him consolidate his learning at home before going to school, Wanqiu is already fifteen years old and is only taking sixth-grade courses, which is too late. With Wanqiu's intelligence, he probably won't be able to keep up with the age-appropriate pace, so we should shorten the time as much as possible."

At fifteen, Wan Qiu was already quite old among the sixth-grade students who were generally eleven or twelve.

"And it also allows them to get used to the school's education in advance, with extra tutoring in the evenings," Jiang Chengfeng said earnestly.

Jiang Chengfeng was indeed very considerate of Wanqiu's well-being, and Wanqiu's diligent study also touched Jiang Chengfeng deeply.

Yang Xiaoyu flipped through Wan Qiu's diary assignment. In fact, the entries were very simple, mostly about what he did rather than what he thought.

Wanqiu's world is very simple; there isn't even a single thought that can be recorded.

“School is not only a place for learning, but also a place for socializing. Right now, Wan Qiu has been in the dance studio without anyone noticing that he has any major problems. As long as we are careful…”

Jiang Chengfeng also guessed that Wan Qiu probably wanted to go to school.

In Wanqiu's notebook, she wrote some things about school.

Today, Zhou Peiyu said that if I go to the same school as her, she can play with me during breaks.

—School is about to start, and my younger brother will be going to school soon.

—Today I saw that Butler Bai took out my younger brother's school uniform to air it out. My younger brother looks better in his school uniform than others, and he will definitely be more popular.

Although none of this information is particularly important, it is clear from the lines that Wanqiu has a small expectation.

Yang Xiaoyu handed Wanqiu's diary assignment to Chu Jianshu, then turned to Jiang Chengfeng and said, "If that's the case, you're not qualified to be Wanqiu's teacher."

Jiang Chengfeng is a special education teacher, and his statement proves that Wanqiu is capable of attending a regular school.

"I should be able to teach courses below the sixth grade. And if Wanqiu goes to school, the specific courses will be taught by teachers. My role is more to help Wanqiu supplement and consolidate the learning content."

but……

Just as Yang Xiaoyu said, Jiang Chengfeng would soon find himself unable to adapt to Wan Qiu's teaching style.

“I have already received so much, and it is my good fortune to be able to teach a student like Wanqiu.”

Jiang Chengfeng originally came here for money and a better future, but he never expected to find spiritual enrichment here as well.

Chu Jianshu showed more patience and trust towards the young man in front of him.

Jiang Chengfeng's willingness to genuinely care for his students is a unique blend of courage and gentleness.

"I understand, I will take your advice into consideration," Chu Jianshu said. "Thank you very much for your genuine concern for Wanqiu."

Jiang Chengfeng simply smiled.

After leaving the study, Jiang Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief, though he was actually a little regretful inside.

That's a direct loss of several months' salary.

"Teacher Jiang." Just as Jiang Chengfeng hesitated, Wan Qiu's voice suddenly came from the side.

Jiang Chengfeng turned his head and looked at Wan Qiu's somewhat uneasy gaze, waiting for his answer.

Jiang Chengfeng also remembered that Wan Qiu had specifically noted down his birthday.

Wan Qiu carefully replied to his New Year's text messages during the Spring Festival.

Wan Qiu always trusted his judgment completely.

"You've been doing very well lately," Jiang Chengfeng said with a smile. "You did great on the exam too, your parents will definitely praise you!"

Wan Qiu smiled with joy at Jiang Chengfeng's words.

Jiang Chengfeng still remembered Wan Qiu's friendship with those who had helped him, and he also remembered Huang Hu and Lu Qinghe, who had not been very close to Wan Qiu before.

Even if he and Wan Qiu no longer communicate in a contractual or monetary capacity.

Wan Qiu will certainly never forget the connection they once had.

The tiny saplings were nurtured in the greenhouse and sprouted tender green leaves.

Next, take it to the sunshine, to the vast, moist land, and sincerely wish it a healthy growth.

After Jiang Chengfeng returned, Wan Qiu was summoned to the study.

Sitting upright in the study, Wan Qiu saw Yang Xiaoyu looking very serious, and his nerves, which had relaxed because of Jiang Chengfeng's words, were tense again.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, and Wan Qiu began to reflect on whether there was anything she hadn't been careful about in answering the questions.

Yang Xiaoyu reached out and ruffled Wanqiu's hair roughly: "Don't look so serious, baby. Mommy won't be mean to you."

Wan Qiu's short hair was ruffled by Yang Xiaoyu, and her bewildered little eyes made Yang Xiaoyu find her extremely cute.

Chu Jianshu sat down opposite Wan Qiu and asked, "Wan Qiu, do you want to go to school?"

Wan Qiu was bewildered: "I'm in school right now?"

Chu Jianshu asked in a more explicit tone, "Do you want to go to school?"

Wan Qiu was stunned.

He looked down at his fingers.

He looked up at Chu Jianshu again.

Wan Qiu's hesitation was enough for Chu Jianshu to understand what Wan Qiu meant.

As always, one of Wanqiu's behaviors when it comes to things he wants is to avoid them.

"We're not preventing you from going to school; we're only having you study at home temporarily so that you can have a better education in the future."

Your teacher said your grades are pretty good right now, and you could consider going to school.

Chu Jianshu stared intently at Wan Qiu's expression.

"But your studies aren't particularly good right now, so you might need to get extra tutoring at home. If you go to school, you won't be able to study as easily as you are at home now. Do you understand what I mean?"

Wan Qiu sorted out the logic and nodded.

"So, would you like to go to school or be homeschooled?"

Chu Jianshu's question was merely to give Wan Qiu a choice; he did not intend to force Wan Qiu.

Both he and Yang Xiaoyu respected what Wan Qiu wanted to do.

“If you find school too tiring, you can come back and continue studying at home. It’s all up to you.” Yang Xiaoyu kissed Wan Qiu’s cheek. “Choose whatever you want, Mom will do whatever you want.”

Wanqiu hesitated.

Chu Jianshu did not receive a reply from Wan Qiu immediately, nor was he in a hurry to urge her.

"Wanqiu, you can consider it. You can answer me anytime. There's no need to rush."

Chu Jianshu's expression never became serious, but he was still somewhat worried that such a formal conversation might put Wan Qiu under pressure.

Chu Jianshu gently ruffled Wan Qiu's hair as always, a habitual gesture of comfort.

When he withdrew his hand, Chu Jianshu stared blankly at it.

He should have respected Wanqiu's age of fifteen and stopped making such childish gestures as stroking her hair, but he had unknowingly formed a habit.

Wanqiu is indeed a child who easily evokes his fatherly love.

Wan Qiu never expected that Chu Yigui would get a chance to go to school within just one month of starting school.

Originally looking forward to it, Wanqiu was unable to make a decision when the opportunity actually came.

He vaguely sensed that his experience at school was abnormal.

What were some of the comments that were meant to mock him?

He was relegated to a corner, which was a sign of indifference towards him.

He was isolated from everyone else.

Playing with someone, teasing them, or even causing them pain is violence.

When Zhao Jingyue's mother took her to school, what she said and did was not without reason.

It's because he didn't have a good time at school.

Wanqiu didn't know why he was being treated this way.

Is there something about yourself that makes people dislike you?

All Wanqiu could think of was that he was stupid.

Although there has been progress, although Wanqiu has made new friends, and although Wanqiu feels that her new self might be able to make more friends.

But what happened in the past is not nonexistent.

Wan Qiu was hesitant and confused.

Chu Yigui, who was doing her homework, noticed that Wan Qiu seemed to be a little distracted.

Looking at the homework Wan Qiu was working on, it seemed to be finished, so Wan Qiu was in a daze.

"Brother?" Chu Yigui interrupted Wan Qiu's daze.

Wan Qiu snapped out of her daze in the blink of an eye, looked down at the homework in her hands, and then began to tidy up the messy notebooks.

"What happened?" As always, Chu Yigui wanted to know the reason for Wan Qiu's unusual behavior.

Wan Qiu stopped tidying up and placed her hands on the table. Her hands unconsciously clasped together, a nervous little gesture.

Chu Yigui shifted her gaze from Wan Qiu's fingers to Wan Qiu's face and waited quietly.

"My parents said I can go to school now."

Chu Yigui did not rush to ask.

"I don't know if I should go," Wan Qiu said slowly, trying to express his anxiety to his younger brother. "What if someone doesn't like me going to school?"

To others, this statement might seem nonsensical.

But Chu Yigui understood Wan Qiu's thoughts.

In Wanqiu's subconscious, he felt that he was not welcome at school.

Wanqiu dislikes things that make people hate him, including being hated himself.

Wanqiu was covered in the mud from others, but he believed it was all his fault.

Nothing and no one in this world is perfect.

Does he have a way to make Wanqiu, who always looks at others' opinions, learn to take himself seriously?

Wan Qiu waited for a while without receiving a reply from Chu Yigui, then looked up at his younger brother.

"Brother, do you think I will be liked by everyone?" Chu Yigui asked.

Wan Qiu answered without hesitation: "Yes."

Chu Yigui was taken aback, then continued, "But Grandpa and Grandma don't like me, brother, do you remember?"

Wan Qiu was dumb.

He lowered his head.

"Likes and dislikes are often reflected in one thing." Chu Yigui used a simpler analogy, "For example, my brother loves fruit salad, but some people hate fruit salad."

Wan Qiu nodded.

"Brother doesn't need to worry about being liked by everyone, nor does he need to like everyone."

Wanqiu understood what Chu Yigui meant.

"If I go back to school... and things are still the same, is it better not to go?"

Disliked by everyone.

Will it make Dad worry?

Will Mom be just as unhappy as last time?

If you don't go to school, you won't have this worry, right?

“Everything requires trying, brother,” Chu Yigui reminded Wan Qiu. “Just like when I asked you to try and test Mom and Dad’s rules.”

Wan Qiu's expression shifted.

“Going to school doesn’t mean you have to stay there. If you don’t like it, you can change schools. If you don’t want to come back, you can have many different classes in one school, and there are many schools in total.”

Chu Yigui's voice, as always, was slow, waiting for Wan Qiu's patient understanding.

He always kept an eye on Wanqiu and guided him.

“Brother, you have many choices. You can choose to stay in a school and class that suits you, makes you comfortable, and doesn’t worry your family.”

Wanqiu wavered.

Because of Chu Yigui, Wanqiu also recalled the past.

He is not without options now.

"Brother, would you like to come and visit my school?" Chu Yigui suggested.

Wan Qiu looked up, his eyes filled with a sense of bewilderment as he stood at the crossroads.

“If you’d like, brother, I can invite my friend along,” Chu Yigui said, looking at Wan Qiu, “who is also my classmate.”

Wanqiu was always worried about what she would encounter at school.

What I'm worried about is people.

However, if it's a familiar environment, not so unfamiliar...

Chu Yigui gave Wan Qiu this suggestion.

Wan Qiu was tempted.

Even though she was confused about the school, Wan Qiu still had expectations because he was Chu Yigui's friend.

"Is it okay?" Wan Qiu asked hesitantly.

"Okay." Chu Yigui stood up from beside Wan Qiu. "Then I'll talk to my parents. Tomorrow is the weekend, is tomorrow okay?"

"Mm." Wan Qiu nodded.

"Then brother, just wait a bit. I'll mention it to Mom and Dad at breakfast tomorrow morning."

Chu Yigui looked at Wan Qiu and nodded, his expression as trusting as ever.

He reached out and touched the phone beside him, his fingers unconsciously tracing the smooth screen, and sighed silently.

"Going to school?" Yang Xiaoyu was somewhat surprised when she received Chu Yigui's message that morning.

"Let my brother see my school," Chu Yigui said. "Letting my brother see the environment of our school might help him decide whether or not he should go to school."

"Shall we go for a visit?" Yang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and decided it was feasible. "Then I'll go with you today."

"I invited my classmates."

Although Chu Yigui didn't explain things very clearly, it wouldn't be good for the parents to go along since they had already invited their classmates.

Chu Yigui added, "My brother is worried about getting along with his classmates at school. I called my classmates over, which might help him relax a bit."

Silence fell over the dining table. Wan Qiu, who had just been chewing on a shumai, forgot to chew it and kept staring at Yang Xiaoyu and Chu Jianshu's expressions.

"Understood. Is there anything we need to do?" Chu Jianshu was the first to agree.

“The school gates are closed on rest days, so I hope Mom can explain the situation to the teacher and talk to the security guard so we can get in,” Chu Yigui said.

Yang Xiaoyu nodded: "Anything else?"

“That’s all,” Chu Yigui said to Yang Xiaoyu. “Thank you, Mom.”

Yang Xiaoyu looked at Wan Qiu, and Wan Qiu looked at Yang Xiaoyu in return.

Yang Xiaoyu's silence made Wan Qiu uneasy; he could tell that his mother was 'unhappy'.

But the brief 'unhappiness' suddenly dissipated, and Yang Xiaoyu tapped Wan Qiu's forehead.

"Our little one is going out to play again. Remember to stay close to your little brother, okay?"

Wan Qiu stared blankly at Yang Xiaoyu and nodded obediently.

"The weather's nice today. How about Mom picks out a nice outfit for you in a bit?"

"Mm," Wan Qiu replied softly.

Yang Xiaoyu casually rested her chin on her hand at the dining table and said to Chu Yigui, "Our Yigui is really very thoughtful in everything she does. With Yigui around, Mom feels very at ease."

Chu Yigui smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Mom."

"Then I'll go see my younger brothers off today," Yang said.

Yang Xiaoyu tapped her cheek with her finger, looked at Yang Ze, and said after a long while, "Thank you for your hard work."

Dressed up beautifully by Yang Xiaoyu, Wan Qiu stood beside Chu Yigui.

Wanqiu glanced at her younger brother, who looked good even in simple clothes, and then at herself, who was dressed in a flamboyant manner.

Is it really because the younger brother is so good-looking that he doesn't need anything fancy?

"Take care on the road," Yang Xiaoyu said goodbye to them.

As Wan Qiu sat in the car, he turned his head to look at Chu Yigui.

Chu Yigui always looks out the window; it seems to be a habit of hers at all times.

"younger brother."

Wan Qiu's voice was a sensitive signal to Chu Yigui, and he shifted his gaze from the window to Wan Qiu.

"Why did Mom not come when my brother said his classmates were coming?"

Chu Yigui said, "Because not all students like having their parents around."

Wanqiu finds it incomprehensible that she loves her parents so much that she never feels sad when they are together.

"Don't they love their mom and dad?"

“That’s not it,” Chu Yigui explained to Wan Qiu. “It’s because we don’t have anything in common to talk about.”

A sense of bewilderment pervades the ages.

"Parents talk about work, career, and family, but classmates talk about school, grades, and games. This is because they care about different things and have different understandings, so they can't understand each other."

Wan Qiu blinked and lowered his head.

It's because of a lack of mutual understanding.

So I don't like being together.

Wanqiu was reminiscing about his past self.

He doesn't do well in school, so he can't afford nice clothes, and he doesn't know what his classmates are playing...

So, is he being bullied because he can't have common topics with his classmates?

If he tries to find common topics with his classmates, wouldn't he be able to make new friends?

——

The spring morning was still a bit chilly. The owner of the small supermarket near the school gate was a little later than usual when he opened the door and saw several familiar junior high school students crawling into the supermarket.

"You guys are here so early even though you don't have class today?" The supermarket owner chatted familiarly with a few students, noticing their school uniform pants. "Where did you all go all night again?"

This is obviously a common occurrence, and the supermarket owner doesn't find it strange.

Li Shuo, who was in the lead, yawned loudly, looking sleepy: "I originally planned to go straight home to sleep this morning, but Chu Yigui called this morning and asked me to do something for her, so she asked me to wait at the school gate."

The supermarket owner was also surprised: "There's someone who can boss you around? I've never seen you listen to anyone before."

"Bullshit, I'm not listening to him."

Li Shuo clicked his tongue, and could only say that he had to submit to his parents' authority. Even if he was unwilling, he still had to give Chu Yigui some face.

His parents had somehow heard that Chu Yigui was very powerful.

“I’ve never seen Chu Yigui ask anyone for anything, so I’m a little curious too,” Li Shuo said, sitting on a chair in the supermarket.

“Exactly, I’ve never seen the class monitor bring up personal matters.” Several classmates who were obviously staying up all night together sat together. “Only Li Shuo gets asked for favors by the class monitor.”

Li Shuo sneered: "What's wrong? He asked me for a favor, and I'm supposed to be grateful to him?"

Those nearby immediately burst into laughter, and the person who had misspoke quickly corrected himself: "No, Li Shuo, don't misunderstand me."

"If the class monitor asks me for a favor, I'll listen to him. It's thanks to the class monitor who always helps us summarize the key points that we've consistently done well on exams."

"The class monitor has helped me with a little thing before, and I'm willing to help if needed."

"What could it be? Could it be that you've offended someone from another school? That's probably all the things people would ask Li Shuo for, right?"

Li Shuo listened to the conversations of the people around him with squinted eyes, feeling somewhat depressed.

He is clearly the center of this group, so why do they seem to admire Chu Yigui more?

While it is undeniable that Chu Yigui is indeed very useful in all aspects.

And she's also very good at interpersonal relationships.

Moreover, Li Shuo remembered that he had once tried to deliberately provoke Chu Yigui, but noticed that the other party was very strong and skillful.

He had studied it specifically, yet he still couldn't get the upper hand in front of Chu Yigui.

So what exactly is it that you need to talk to him about?

And I only called him.

Could it be that there's only one thing he needs to ask him about?

Li Shuo couldn't fathom what Chu Yigui could possibly want from him.

I opened a bottle of milk tea and started drinking it, feeling drowsy in the warm temperature of the supermarket.

Until his phone rang, Li Shuo answered the call, and Chu Yigui's voice, which sounded as unfriendly as ever, came from the other end.

"Have you arrived? I didn't see you at the door."

"Wow, Chu Yigui got out of that super cool car. I remember that car was really expensive, right?" the person standing at the door who had been looking outside said in surprise.

"I'm in this shop." Li Shuo stood up and went to the door. He immediately saw Chu Yigui standing by the roadside. The car next to them had already driven away.

"Did you take a taxi? It left so quickly, it probably wasn't Chu Yigui's car, right?"

Li Shuo heard the person on the other end of the phone seem to fall silent, and at the same time, he also saw someone with Chu Yigui.

Very thin and small.

Chu Yigui is much shorter.

She was dressed quite warmly, and at first glance, she looked like a girl.

What does that mean? Are you going to introduce him to your girlfriend? Doesn't he have a girlfriend yet?

"You brought a lot of people with you?" Chu Yigui's voice came.

"No? You didn't say I couldn't bring people?" Li Shuo frowned.

At this moment, Chu Yigui was facing him, and that thin figure was always clinging to Chu Yigui's side at an overly intimate distance.

"There are too many people, you..."

Li Shuo saw Chu Yigui put her phone away and say something to the person next to her.

Although he was standing far away and couldn't see their expressions clearly, Chu Yigui bent down slightly and lowered his head to listen to the people next to him.

That posture was something he had never seen before.

"Come over here, others can come too."

Upon hearing Chu Yigui hang up the phone, Li Shuo clicked his tongue.

"Who's that next to him? His girlfriend? Did she come all this way just to show Li Shuo her girlfriend?"

People around me were making fun of me.

"That can't be right. Chu Yigui looks like a bookworm who wouldn't know how to find a girlfriend."

"He's not some bookworm." Li Shuo finished his milk tea in one gulp and casually tossed it into the trash can next to him. "Let's go, it's over."

Li Shuo was very curious about the thin, small figure.

I've never seen Chu Yigui so close to anyone.

He would find it strange if she really was his girlfriend.

Only when they got closer did the group of people truly see who was standing next to Chu Yigui.

Although he looks pretty and cute, upon closer inspection, it's clear he's a boy.

The short boy held Chu Yigui's hand, and Chu Yigui did not resist; in fact, judging from the degree of her fingers bending, she simply gripped his hand back.

Because the scene was so strange, no one spoke up for a moment.

As Li Shuo sized up the short boy, he noticed that the boy was also looking at him.

It has to be said that even Li Shuo thought this boy's eyes were extremely beautiful, the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen.

He doesn't feel uncomfortable when being stared at, but he feels challenged even when people keep looking at him.

"Thank you for coming to the school again on the weekend." Chu Yigui said to Li Shuo and the others, and led Wan Qiu forward. "This is my brother, Chu Wanqiu."

Holy crap!

The moment the word "brother" was uttered, everyone around gasped.

Is this the older brother?

Whose older and younger brothers do things in opposite ways?

Li Shuo's heart skipped a beat. Chu Yigui's brother? Weren't there only two adults working?

“My brother is currently on leave from school due to some issues, but he wants to return to school. However, he has been away from school for a long time and is a little afraid of school.”

Li Shuo didn't look at Chu Yigui much, but instead looked at Wan Qiu.

"We invited you here so that my brother can get to know the students at this school."

Li Shuo remained silent.

Taking a leave of absence from school?

At this age, there are usually many issues that can be considered when taking a break from school.

Li Shuo asked, "Is this... your older brother?"

"Yes," Chu Yigui replied.

"Oh..." Although Li Shuo didn't know the reason, since he had said that, there was no harm in getting on good terms with him. "Hello, I'm Li Shuo."

"Hello." Wan Qiu stepped out from next to Chu Yigui and introduced himself very seriously, "I am Wan Qiu."

The sound was very soft.

They look very well-behaved.
