"Of course!" Lin Chaoxi said without hesitation after a moment.

Lu Zhihao, Huajuan and Pei Zhi didn't think there was anything wrong with her answer. They didn't even raise their heads, immersed in their own world.

Chen Chengcheng was very happy. The young boy finally had a smile on his face. Bai Yueguang was still as beautiful as ever.

The classmate brought by Chen Chengcheng is named An Beibei, which matches his name very well, both in the form of abb. An Beibei is not as timid as Chen Chengcheng, but rather carefree.

However, Lin Chaoxi recalled that An Beibei seemed to be another child who was driven to the side by the seventh group.

“This is too easy!”

When they first sat down, An Beibei didn't understand what they were learning.

Lin Chaoxi glanced at the questions in front of them.

The proof questions in "The Elements of Geometry" are indeed somewhat simple for Olympiad students who are used to complex plane geometry problems. But as Lao Lin said, the most subtle part of it is not the proof, but the process of arguing from axioms to conclusions step by step, which is very helpful for training logical thinking.

"Even Einstein said that if Euclid didn't inspire your scientific passion as a teenager, then you are definitely not a talented scientist."

The above sentence was said by Chen Chengcheng in a slightly childish voice while teaching An Beibei in a strict manner.

An Beibei probably had never seen his friend so cultured. After a while, he said sincerely, "Chen Chengcheng, you are so amazing now!"

Chen Chengcheng blushed again, and quickly shook his head to refute, and continued to explain geometry to An Beibei.

There are fewer and fewer people in the cafeteria, and it seems very empty and distant.

Under the big chandelier, two little boys huddled together, one talking seriously and the other listening attentively.

Sometimes Chen Chengcheng forgot something and would come to ask her. She would explain it to him, and if there was still something he was unsure about, he would turn the notebook over and ask Pei Zhi.

Pei Zhi's handwriting and speaking speed are always clear and calm. He will patiently write out the process step by step, and at the end he will ask: "Have I made myself clear?"

Everyone at the table nodded in agreement.

"Thank you!" Chen Chengcheng held the notebook and thanked the God of Learning, then turned around and talked to An Beibei.

Above their heads, incandescent lights and electric fans were whirring, and the air smelled like the cafeteria's disinfectant before closing time.

Yes, because Lao Lin still has to work and is too busy to teach them one by one, so after teaching Chen Chengcheng the secrets in person, Lao Lin arranged for Chen Chengcheng to give lessons to the new student An Beibei.

Lin Chaoxi twirled the pencil. Actually, this was a game that Lao Lin often played with her when she was a child. After Lao Lin finished explaining, she repeated the content to Lao Lin in her own way. This not only helped her to organize her thoughts and deepen her understanding, but more importantly, only when she repeated it again did she know what she still didn't know.

This teaching model has even more outstanding advantages now, mainly because it is very convenient for Lao Lin himself.

It was a little after 9:20 when Lao Lin came out wearing rain boots.

He had just finished helping to clean the floor in the kitchen, and it was unclear whether the stains on his body were from sweat or tap water.

But Lao Lin didn't care about it. He took off his work coat, crossed his legs, checked the certificates they wrote, and said casually: "Can you gather a group of people in the future? It's tiring to talk to each one of them one by one."

Lin Chaoxi smacked his lips, feeling that such words should not be spoken casually.

——

On the fifth day, there were indeed more people. But this flag could not be blamed on her, it was all Lu Zhihao's fault.

No one knew what was going on with Xiao Lu, but in yesterday's geometry test, he not only did not fail, but also scored 75 points, which was a record high.

Lu Zhihao held the test paper in his hand and stared at Teacher Xiaojie for a while.

Xie Ran stroked his chubby face and asked, "What did you eat yesterday?"

"Teacher, are you asking about breakfast, lunch or..."

"Please sit down. You did well in the exam." Xie Ran said seriously, and then ran away.

——

"Student Lu Zhihao, can I ask you why your grades are so good all of a sudden?"

Lu Zhihao is actually a very serious person, with the simplicity and stubbornness that are typical of northern kids. Therefore, when the sixth group, who were on good terms with them, came to ask for the reason, he told them everything he knew.

"Because my master taught me well!" he said.

Lin Chaoxi held his forehead helplessly beside him, and Huajuan also coughed lightly.

"What master?" The girls in Group 6's eyes lit up.

Lu Zhihao probably also felt something was wrong, so he turned his head and whispered to Huajuan, "Can't I tell you?"

He was full of energy and the reading room was quiet, so this whisper was not quiet enough.

Lin Zhaoxi almost pulled off the small bun on her head, waved her hands, and said, "Go ahead, go ahead..."

——

By dinner time, the total number of children who followed them to the class had reached 11, just one short of filling up the long table.

"If I fill this position, I can have 12 Saints." Looking at the empty seat, Lin Chaoxi thought boredly.

The plate contained braised pork, sweet and sour lotus root slices, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes but no egg. She had just finished her fried fish happily and was about to start eating the braised pork when suddenly, two shadows covered her.

"Can you take her with you?"

At her table, Hanamaki pulled the little girl's wrist and asked.

Lin Chaoxi looked up in disbelief and found that it was a thin little girl with short mushroom-shaped hair, and her name seemed to be Yao Xiaotian. Yao Xiaotian was holding Huajuan's hand and was very shy.

"Brother Juan?" Lin Chaoxi was trying to hold back his laughter.

"Just tell me whether to bring it or not?"

"Brother Juan, if you say so, I will definitely bring it!"

However, Yao Xiaotian lowered her head and said, "I... let it go."

Lin Zhaoxi: "Why let it go?"

When she looked up, she noticed that little Yao Xiaotian's eyes were red and there were tears on her long eyelashes. This was probably the reason why Brother Juan came to save the beauty.

"Girls are born not good at math." Yao Xiaotian stammered.

"Girl, she said you are not a girl."

Lin Chaoxi was about to retort when he heard a drawn-out sigh from behind, the voice was low and hoarse. He turned around and saw that Old Lin had arrived without him noticing.

Lao Lin's hand was still on her head, and the word "girl" was of course referring to her.

"Uncle, no, it was me!" Yao Xiaotian was anxious, "I didn't say Lin Chaoxi, I was too stupid, she is very smart."

Lao Lin: "Lao Lu, have you ever spoken lines with her? The phrase 'you are dumb and she is smart' sounds very familiar to me."

Lu Zhihao blushed immediately: "I didn't! No!"

Lao Lin pulled out the dining chair next to them and took Yao Xiaotian to sit next to her. He also put his hand on her head and forced her to look at the remaining tomatoes on the plate.

Lin Chaoxi had no choice but to pick up the fork and silently began to eat the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that she had finished eating.

"Will intelligence factors affect academic performance?" Lao Lin looked at Yao Xiaotian and asked himself, "Yes."

"The next sentence is, given the level of effort most people put in, it's not a matter of talent?" Lin Chaoxi muttered as he ate a sour tomato, his saliva dripping.

"no."

Just when Lin Chaoxi thought that Old Lin was going to talk about the relationship between human intelligence and math performance, he heard Old Lin say, "The truth is, even a fool can learn elementary math."

Lin Zhaoxi: “…”

Dad, your attack is a bit too broad.

——

The peak dining time is from 5:30 to 8:00 in the evening, and Lao Lin is always busy.

As for the geometry, he has almost let go.

After giving the outline, he asked the children who had heard the lecture to teach those who had not heard it. In between his busy schedule, he would take time to come back and ask a few questions to understand how well they had mastered the knowledge.

As a geometry expert, Lu Zhihao took on the responsibility of teaching the new students together with Chen Chengcheng, and Huajuan also joined in to listen.

Lin Chaoxi and Pei Zhi were reading face to face when suddenly, the children next to them all started laughing. They didn't know what they were talking about, but every child was very happy.

Huajuan rolled the pen up with her lips, her brows beaming with joy.

Lu Zhihao's face was shaking with laughter.

In fact, she felt that the reason why Lu Zhihao's geometry performance improved so rapidly was, firstly, that he had a good foundation to begin with, and secondly, that he simply regained the relaxed state he should have when studying.

As for Lao Lin, his teaching content may only account for a very small part.

Lin Chaoxi unwrapped the biscuits on the table and handed one to Pei Zhi.

——

Oasis base, big cafeteria.

It was almost nine o'clock when Lao Lin finished his work, and there was only more than an hour left before they had to turn off the lights and go to bed.

In a corner of the cafeteria, more and more study groups gathered. The supervisor tolerated them for two days, but on the third day, she finally came to drive them away.

"Go study in your own dormitories!" Auntie put one hand on her waist. "The lighting here is not good and it's noisy. We will have to turn on the ultraviolet light for disinfection later. You can't stay here all the time!"

The children looked at each other and at the adults waving at them, confused.

From childhood to adulthood, as long as they were studying, their parents were very happy and would devote 100% of their energy to serving them. Who would have thought that one day when they wanted to study, they would be chased away.

"But we haven't started class yet." Lu Zhihao said, "We have an exam tomorrow."

An Beibei: "No, tomorrow is the weekend, no exams!"

When Lin Chaoxi was reminded of the weekend, she thought of the phone call. Would the dean's mother really ask Professor Shen and his wife to pick her up to go to the amusement park?

She suddenly became worried.

"It's the weekend, awful! My elder sister wants Tuo to go shopping with her, so I don't have time to read!" Huajuan also said, "It feels like I haven't learned anything today!"

What should we do tomorrow... The children's attention was immediately shifted from what to do next to tomorrow.

Lin Chaoxi also felt helpless as to why these children were so enthusiastic about studying.

"Then just clean it up." someone said.

Seven or eight gazes simultaneously moved upwards.

Lao Lin was sweating all over, with his uniform folded over his arm. He stood behind them and said to them casually, "It's a nice night tonight. Let's go for a walk."
