Chapter 193: It's good that you're willing to put in the effort
After Xu Yihuan came out of the bathroom, she held a towel in one hand to dry her hair, and habitually picked up her phone from the bed with the other hand to take a look.
There happened to be a missed WeChat call.
This is about the order of knowledge.
Xu Yihuan paused for a few seconds, then dialed the number back.
Tan Zhixu answered the phone instantly, as if he were waiting for it.
Soon, the background behind Tan Zhixu appeared on the other end of the phone.
It was impossible to tell where it was, but it wasn't brightly lit, and Tan Zhixu's features were somewhat blurry.
Tan Zhixu's eyes lit up the moment he saw Xu Yihuan.
But she quickly became aggrieved again.
Why did it take you so long to answer the phone, baby?
I don't know how Zhixu's personality has been trained, but he's becoming more and more like a clingy puppy.
If I don't see you for a while, I'll start barking.
"I was just taking a shower, where are you?" Xu Yihuan's heart softened for a moment.
"I'm at the hotel. I've already arrived in Yuncheng."
Xu Yihuan was taken aback: "How come I've never heard you mention this before?"
She only knew that Tan Zhixu was led by their teacher to walk together, but she never heard him say it was today.
Or perhaps Tan Zhixu actually mentioned it, but she doesn't remember?
Xu Yihuan's heart skipped a beat.
"I was going to tell you, but the old man was in a hurry and the tickets were booked at the last minute."
"When does the competition start?"
"the day after tomorrow."
Normally, arriving a day in advance is fine.
The reason why it had to be changed back to the day before...
The face of the person she had met today flashed through Xu Yihuan's mind.
It can't be because of her, can it?
Xu Yihuan didn't want to think too much about it, but their instructor seemed to be resisting her.
Xu Yihuan pursed her lips, clearing her mind of all sorts of random thoughts.
Change the subject by asking, "Have you eaten?"
Tan Zhixu shook his head: "Not yet, we just arrived at the hotel and haven't had time to eat yet."
Xu Yihuan glanced down at the time; it was already 9:30 PM. She opened her mouth to tell Tan Zhixu to hurry up and eat.
Before he could speak, there was a knock on the door.
Tan Zhixu didn't hang up the phone; he took his phone and went to open the door.
"Xu, let's go. The teacher asked me to call you to go eat together."
"Didn't you go to high school in Yuncheng? You can be our guide and show us around Yuncheng."
It was the voice of the only female student among them today...
Xu Yihuan's eyes darkened for a moment.
Tan Zhixu's expression immediately turned cold: "Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll change my clothes."
The girl didn't say anything, just replied "okay" and left.
Tan Zhixu looked at Xu Yihuan with a wronged expression, hesitating to speak.
Xu Yihuan found it amusing: "Alright, go ahead and do it. You can call back later."
Tan Zhixu neither said it was good nor bad, but simply said, "I'll change my clothes."
As he spoke, he casually propped his phone up on a table.
Tan Zhixu was standing there wearing only a bathrobe, and because he had just left the house, the collar of it was pulled up.
At this moment, Tan Zhixu seemed to have forgotten about the phone and started a live broadcast to Xu Yihuan.
With his back to Xu Yihuan, he untied the belt of his bathrobe, which slipped off his body, revealing Tan Zhixu's lean back.
With broad shoulders and a narrow waist, she has a typical inverted triangle figure. The muscles in her arms, wrapped in a loose bathrobe, look very muscular. Her proportions are perfectly displayed, and her long, straight legs seem to leap out of the screen.
A small black mole on her shoulder blade looks very sexy.
Xu Yihuan had been honest for nineteen years and had never seen such a scene before. She flipped her phone over and slammed it onto the table.
One person used too much force, causing the things that were standing on the table to fall over again, making a loud crashing noise.
Hearing the sounds coming from the phone, Tan Zhixu smiled.
I slowly and leisurely put on my clothes.
Only then did he turn around and look at his phone.
Unbeknownst to them, Xu Yihuan had already hung up the video call.
Tan Zhixu's face darkened for a moment.
No wonder there was no sound at the back; she hung up the phone.
But I can't stop thinking about the sound that came from my phone earlier.
Tan Zhixu smiled with satisfaction; he was quite confident in his physique.
On the other side, the things on the table had been tidied up. Xu Yihuan looked at her phone screen, feeling a little thirsty and a bit guilty.
Never mind, it's good that he's willing to put in the effort for her.
Xu Yihuan originally wanted to take another look at the documents, but when she opened her eyes, all she saw was Tan Zhixu's white flesh.
Enraged, Xu Yihuan simply covered herself with the blanket and went to sleep.
The anger that had initially arisen from seeing that girl had now been forgotten, nowhere to be found.
The final exams this year are quite late, already in early July.
However, Tang Wanhua still had relatively strict requirements for her students' academic performance.
Soon, during class, everyone received some terrible news.
In the next class, Tang Wanhua will dedicate two long class periods to a mock exam.
One test was an oral exam, and the other was a written exam.
This exam is out of 100 points, and you need to get 60 points each for the oral and written sections to pass.
Students who fail will receive personal tutoring from Tang Wanhua.
In fact, universities have participation grades. If you want to make up for it, you can split the grade between the exam paper and participation grade in a 30/70 ratio. Tang Wanhua's actions were simply too responsible.
Everyone was devastated when they heard this terrible news.
"Seriously? We still have to take exams in college?"
"I'm out of luck. Do you have a quick guide to business English? I'd like a copy."
"We're completely out of options. Learn from this, kid."
When Lu Anlan heard the news, she was still calmly scrolling through her phone, showing none of the madness her classmates were experiencing.
Xu Yihuan was a little surprised. Logically speaking, Lu Anlan shouldn't be reacting like this right now.
Just as Xu Yihuan was wondering, Lu Anlan approached her with her phone in hand.
"Huanhuan, look."
"What?"
“Puji Temple. I heard that the Wenshu Monastery at Puji Temple is especially efficacious, and that every prayer is answered. Come with me tomorrow.”
Xu Yihuan's lips twitched.
Therefore, Lu Anlan chose to seek help from Buddha rather than from others or from himself.
Tomorrow is the weekend and there's nothing much going on, so Xu Yihuan nodded and agreed.
Lu Anlan happily hugged Xu Yihuan.
Late May is no longer cold; a long-sleeved shirt is enough.
Xu Yihuan casually grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, preparing to urge Lu Anlan. When she turned around, she saw that Lu Anlan was already wearing a windbreaker, with a short-sleeved T-shirt underneath, and even holding a hiking pole.
This isn't a trip to worship Buddha; it's more like a mountain climb.
Xu Yihuan's lips twitched.
Without saying anything, she quietly changed her clothes to the same style as Lu Anlan's.
Puji Temple is located on a mountain, and there are two ways to get there: one is by cable car, and the other is by climbing. There are 1,500 steps, which is not many, but it is very steep and climbing to the top will be very tiring.
Judging from Lu Anlan's attire, she must be preparing to climb up.
Sure enough, when the two of them stood at the foot of the mountain, Lu Anlan resolutely took Xu Yihuan's arm.
"Let's go, Huanhuan, climbing up will show our sincerity!"
